- 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.

- Added simple blackboard container.
- Added support for checking if a resource has been produced within the graph.
- Moved all RHI validation into user validation cpp file.
- Fixed bug in graph producer compilation logic when switching to subresources.

- Resource barriers are now batched and submitted as a group at the beginning of a pass.
- UAVs referencing the same underlying resource now only submit a single write barrier instead of a write + N UAV barriers.
- During a mip generation pass, barriers are not issued for textures (they are implicitly converted to the SubRWBarrier state).
- Depth / stencil read now transitions to the read state; this allows DSV + SRV to work correctly.
