// LoadMissionImplementation -- called by Renderer::LoadMission (the authentic
// engine, CODE/RP/MUNGA/RENDERER.CPP:263) after it has set
// LoadingRendererStatus, stamped nextRenderTime and started the renderer with
// the RendererManager.  This is where a GAME renderer builds the mission's
// scene content on the Division board.
//
// BRING-UP NO-OP (phase 1 of the btl4vid ladder).  A no-op is a LEGAL body
// here, not a cheat: the engine's own VideoRenderer::LoadMissionImplementation
// (CODE/RP/MUNGA/VIDREND.CPP:259) is a bare Tell, and our GaugeRenderer
// (GAUGREND.CPP:3275) ships the same.  The renderer therefore comes up and
// runs its frame loop with an EMPTY scene, which is exactly what we want to
// measure before writing any content.
//
// THE AUTHENTIC SHAPE, pinned by the surviving sibling header for Red
// Planet's renderer (CODE/RP/RP_L4/RPL4VID.HPP -- same engine, same board,
// same year; only the .CPP is missing there too):
//
//     LoadMissionImplementation walks the mission's entities and calls
//     MakeEntityRenderables(entity, model_resource, view_type) for each,
//     which builds a dpl_DCS hierarchy through ReadSKLFile /
//     RecurseSKLFile (the skeleton notation pages), with a material
//     substitution list set up around it.
//
// The BT-specific renderables (BTReticleRenderable, BTTranslocationRenderable,
// the pending-wrecks map) come from the BT411 donor game/reconstructed/
// btl4vid.cpp -- 3188 lines -- but NOTE that port restructured this hook and
// has no method under this name, so the CONTRACT above comes from the 1995
// engine and only the CONTENT comes from the donor.
//#############################################################################

//#############################################################################
// ReadSKLFile -- build one entity's render skeleton from its .SKL file.
//
// The .SKL is a plain NotationFile.  Each page is one node of the skeleton:
//
//     [jointhip]
//     parent=jointlocal
//     Type=hingex                 <- joint kind (animation; unused at build)
//     Object=mad_hip.bgf          <- optional geometry for this node
//     dzone=dz_hip                <- damage-zone tags (zero or more)
//     tranx=..  trany=..  tranz=..
//     pitch=..  yaw=..    roll=..
//     joint=jointtorso            <- child pages (zero or more)
//
// so the whole model is a recursive walk from [ROOT].
//
// Files live under video\ -- the engine uses the same bare "video\\" prefix
// for its .pfx loads (L4VIDEO.CPP:1513).
//
// STAGE 1 (this version): the tree, the geometry and the parenting are real;
// every node is given an IDENTITY matrix.  The model therefore collapses onto
// the entity origin and looks wrong, which is deliberate -- the STRUCTURE is
// what is being proved here, and it is provable without looking at a pixel:
// MAD.SKL declares JointCount=25 (+1 root) and DZoneCount=22, and the
// dpl3-revive capture of a REAL pod decodes as 26 DCS bodies and 22 instance
// bodies.  The counts this walk reports must match.
//
// STAGE 2 is the transforms.  The dpl_MATRIX convention is NOT yet proven
// (see RENDER-ROADMAP.NOTES.md) -- a DCS flush body carries 16 float32, and a
// decoded capture suggests row-major with the translation in the last row,
// but the decoder's offset is suspect by one word.  Rather than guess it and
// ship a mech that renders confidently in the wrong orientation, this stage
// leaves identity in place.
