STAGE_AO flags a two-sided depth spike (the smaller one-sided step two pixels out, capped by the
second difference: ~0 on planes, grazing planes, silhouettes and contact creases) and stores the
smoothness in alpha. STAGE_BLUR turns the spike density of its 4x4 window into a foliage mask,
widens the depth tolerance there (up to 11x) and scales the occlusion by 1 - 0.4 * mask. Smooth
windows are unchanged. WOW_AO_DEBUG=5 shows the mask. LIGHTING.md documents this and the two
earlier followups fixes.

Graphics Preset ladder + Render Distance (farclip ceiling 1497). Conflict in
options_tests: the Advanced page now has 33 rows (preset + render distance lead,
then the 31 programme rows). The three round-3 rows join the ladder:
ambientOcclusion 0/0/1/2/2, zoneSkyboxes 0/0/1/1/1, lampFog 0/0/1/2/2
(Classic/Low/Medium/High/Ultra); the preset tooltip names them (EN+RU).

Advanced Graphics gains a Graphics Preset row (cvar graphicsQuality:
Classic / Low / Medium / High / Ultra / Custom) and a Render Distance slider
on farclip (177..1497, same cvar as Graphics' Terrain Distance). The ladder is
GRAPHICS_PRESETS in cvars.rs, one line per governed row with a column per
rung; lightingQuality is itself a row, so the lighting ladder's members follow
it. The lighting ladder gains an Ultra rung (4096 sun map, 16/8 torch maps,
High water, High volumetric fog). The label is re-derived every frame beside
lightingQuality, so editing a governed row shows Custom.
A player whose config.toml names no graphicsQuality is seeded to High at
startup over the rows the file does not carry; captures, tests and malformed
files never seed, and the rows keep their per-lane registered defaults. The
page's Defaults lands on High too. ambientOcclusion, zoneSkyboxes and lampFog
are commented one-line TODO rows until their cvars land.
Verified: cargo test -p benilla-app --lib -- options cvars preset (136
passed, incl. 7 new preset tests); full benilla-app lib: 3722 passed, 5
pre-existing failures unrelated to this change (spell envelope float, schedule
ambiguity ceiling, pipe_warm fog/shaft/shadow lanes, dev-plane cfg). The
options UI tests need WoW data and were skipped; no captures (no install in
the cloud). Built on Linux only.

Zone Skyboxes row moved to the end of the Advanced Graphics page and added to
OPTIONS_PAGE_ROWS (the lane had left it out of the list).

The wave phase was k*speed(t)*t (its rate grows with session age: ~33 Hz noise
after 10 min) and its spatial term rotated about the world origin with the veer
(hundreds of rad/s at 9k yd from the first second). Now update_wind integrates
travel += speed*dt in f64 and publishes it wrapped at 4096 yd (wind_b.x); every
wave rate is a whole number of cycles per wrap, so the wrap is seamless. The
spatial term uses the fixed profile heading (wind_a.z); the veer and gust turn
only the bend. Capture offset WOW_CAPTURE_WIND_T for late-session shots.

naga_oil refuses a composable-module identifier that naga's namer would
rewrite (a trailing digit gets a '_'), which failed every pipeline that
imports monkey_frame / enhanced_water (models, WMOs, liquid invisible).
MonkeyFrame rows are renamed fog_a..fog_d, wind_a/b, wet_a (same order and
layout), and enhanced_water's padding member _sh_c16 becomes _sh_quad.

Classify static alpha-tested tree and bush leaf batches, log accepted model paths, and apply gentle anchor-phased crown sway and flutter in both retained and fade-twin render paths. Keep animated doodads and tree shadows unchanged, and add wind capture instruments.

Preserve p0 fog and MonkeyFrame hooks, water's row-view ABI, and the post lane's emissive, bloom, sun-shaft, grading, cvar, and options work.

One table of every WarcraftXL-derived file (Benilla file | WarcraftXL module |
Source files | What was taken), pre-filled with the enhanced-water blocks and
the swimmer bob, plus the planned ports. The standard header line
("Ported from WarcraftXL (https://github.com/WarcraftXL) by iThorgrim —
module ..., ...") is added to enhanced_water.wgsl and water_fx/bob.rs.
Linked from README, LIGHTING and WATER. WATER.md no longer says the WarcraftXL
water module is for the 1.12 client: it is a 3.3.5a client module.

The combine's dither lane was armed only by the WOW_DITHER env var. It is now
the `skyDither` cvar (0/1, default 0 = reference look; Graphics preset High
= 1) with an Advanced Graphics "Sky Dithering" checkbox row (EN + RU). The
cvar lands on `benilla_world::ffx_glow::SkyDither` (extracted) through the new
`benilla-app/src/monkey_gfx.rs` bridge; WOW_DITHER=1 still forces it on.

`benilla::fog_hook` (fog_linear / fog_sample / apply_fog) replaces the seven
hand-rolled copies of the linear planar-eye-Z fog: terrain, wow_model,
static_gx, liquid, enhanced_water (factor form), wow_effect (scene fog; the
rain streak fade uses fog_linear) and wdl (the hull's own 0..1 yd pair).
Pure functions, values passed as arguments, same expressions in the same
order, so the classic result is bit-identical. `fog_sample` branches on
MonkeyFrame.fog_model (fog3.x) as the FOG lane's extension point, currently
returning the classic result. wow_effect gains a world_pos varying for it.

16 vec4 rows (256 B) after the point-light table, so no earlier offset moves
(per-frame blob 8528 -> 8784 B, size test updated). Rust side: the
`lighting::MonkeyFrame` resource any system may write, packed each frame by
`global_light::pack_monkey_frame` (which also fills time_of_day / night).
WGSL side: `benilla::monkey_frame::MonkeyFrame`, declared as `monkey` after
`points` in every WowLight mirror (terrain, wow_model, static_gx, liquid,
enhanced_water, wow_effect, wdl). All zero = no visual change. Layout in
LIGHTING.md "Invariants".

71 upstream commits: the repo-wide comment rewrite, the hover highlight as the
scene ambient, M2 Mod/Mod2x batches drawing the bare texel, test and contribution
changes. Conflicts were comment-vs-code in 36 files; where upstream changed only
comments our code was kept, and wow_model.wgsl carries both our lighting lanes
and upstream's new unlit/Mod/Mod2x paths.
Follow-ups folded in:
- our nine Advanced Graphics / water / fog options tests take upstream's
wow_data_or_skip! guard
- PostUpdate ambiguity ceiling re-measured under upstream's new census: 466,
with the per-family breakdown in the comment
- LIGHTING.md: new upstream base

Water (Enhanced/High; Classic stays byte-identical to upstream):
- the enhanced water now lives in its own WGSL library, benilla::enhanced_water
(enhanced_water.wgsl), with its own bindings 103-106; upstream liquid.wgsl
keeps three small hooks only
- depth look: per-channel extinction over the real path through the water,
refraction of an opaque-colour copy bent by the waves (samples landing on
anything in front of the water are refused via the scene depth), caustic
web on sunlit shallow beds
- High: screen-space reflection of the scenery (bisected march against the
scene depth)
- the module fogs its own surface terms only (the refracted/reflected scene is
already fogged); depth+colour copies run both-or-neither
- credits: portions derived from WarcraftXL wxl-experimental-water by
iThorgrim, used with permission (WATER.md)
Volumetric fog (Advanced Graphics -> Volumetric Fog: Off/Low/High, cvar
volumetricFog, env WOW_VOLFOG): own fullscreen pass after the main pass,
near-field haze converging on the zone fog colour, denser at dawn and in
weather, faint indoors, plus sun/moon light shafts from the shadow map.
Tests: addon-harness oracle fixtures no longer require unix symlinks.
