-- Voxel world mode: tilt-shift post-process (the miniature-diorama look).
--
-- A depth-of-field fake that reads perfectly on a tilted voxel scene: a
-- horizontal band through the view centre (where the camera focuses -- the
-- player) stays sharp, and the frame blurs progressively toward the top
-- and bottom edges, with a slight saturation lift to sell the model-photo
-- feel. It runs on the finished voxel canvas as two separable gaussian
-- passes, so it costs two fullscreen draws and touches nothing in the 3D
-- pass itself.
--
-- This is a render pipeline in its own right -- a worldPresent pass, which
-- is the stage that post-processes the finished world BEFORE the UI
-- composites over it. That placement is the whole point: a miniature-photo
-- blur belongs on the diorama, not on the dialog box in front of it.
--
-- The engine owns the level: the T-SHIFT options row, its hotkey, the
-- OFF -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> OFF ladder and persistence in
-- save.options.pipelines all come from the render_pipelines record in
-- main.lua, and the current level arrives through update(). Each step
-- narrows the sharp band, deepens the blur and pushes the saturation a
-- little further.
--
-- Because worldPresent only runs when some pipeline rendered the world,
-- this draws over the voxel scene and nothing else. With it off (or on any
-- failure -- headless, no shader support) apply() hands the canvas back
-- untouched, so every other path is byte-for-byte what it always was.

-- The strength ladder. `spacing` is the gap between the gaussian's taps
-- at full blur, as a fraction of the canvas height (so the miniature
-- reads the same in a window and fullscreen; the blur's reach is 4x the
-- spacing per pass, and the two passes compound). `band` is the
-- half-height of the fully sharp zone and `range` the ramp to full blur,
-- both in canvas-uv units. The focus line sits at the vertical centre
-- because that is where the voxel camera parks the player.
