- Implemented common transient page allocator in RHICore.
- Implemented XBox specific GPU page table mapping allocator.
- Extended RDG insights to support viewing heap visualization or page pool visualization.

- Added ERDGBuilderFlags::AllowParallelExecute to tag specific builders to attempt parallel execution. This avoids cases where small graphs fork tasks and end up causing contention. Only the main scene render graphs are tagged.
- Moved RHI transition creation to an async task.
- Moved parallel execute setup and dispatch to an async task.
- Fixed RDG draining asserts using a short-term workaround by tagging relevant scene textures as non-transient.
- Deprecated RDG AddPass utilities without names and fixed up last remnants.
- Enabled parallel RDG execution by default.

- Refactored RDG to support free-threaded execution of passes.
- Refactored renderer to use specific RHI command list variants in pass lambda. Immediate command list passes are forced to stay on the render thread, while other variants can be parallelized.

- New Drain() method on FRDGBuilder; will flush all pending work.
- Drained passes are not culled; resource lifetimes are extended; async compute fences are optimized as best as possible but fence joining may occur after the drain.
- Batch up and pre-build all resource transitions. This is a prerequisite for parallel command lists.
- Removed ServiceLocalQueue passes with built-in RDG AddDispatchHint().

- Simplified texture subresource tracking.
- Removed map lookup for each resource in SetupPass.
- Improved Compile / CollectPassResources to reduce cache misses.
- Added some container reservations to reduce reallocation costs.
- Added snapping of buffers to page boundaries to improve re-use.

- Views are cached on RHI transient resources; view renames are no longer necessary.
- RHI Transient resources utilize a single cache per heap keyed off of the descriptor + offset. Resource caches and heaps are garbage collected.
- CPU performance is effectively equivalent to the existing pooled resource method.
- Added common RHI transient resource allocator implementation in RHI core; significantly reduces the amount of platform code.
- Resource aliasing overlaps are tracked by the RHI and submitted through an acquire operation.
- Fixed D3D12 implementation to support multi-GPU.
- Removed condition that excluded small (<64k) buffers in the transient allocator.
- RHI validation now checks that resource overlaps are valid; i.e. if an overlap occurs between resource A and B during an acquire of B, validation checks that A has been discarded.

- Replaced legacy transient support from RDG and replaced with new API.
- Reworked acquire / discard operations a bit and added RHI validation to track correctness.
- Reworked RDG barrier batching to include acquire / discard operations.
- Hardened render pass merging logic and expanded to support lifetime extension of transient resources.
- Added transient tag to RDG insights to track which resources are transient.
