feat: add global toggle for GPU rendering. closes #1645 #1685

Closed Kay-STL closed 2 weeks ago

Kay-STL commented 3 weeks ago

This PR adds a global toggle to enable/disable GPU rendering, i.e. switching from SKCanvasView to SKGLView. This is primarily useful on Android where canvas rendering can be slow. Closes #1645.

In draft as this is currently just a prototype for the MAUI view, needs to be extended out to the others, but I figured I'd send this to get some feedback. Figured it would be easier to branch off dev for this rather than continuing from hardware-accelerated, but happy to move these changes over to there if that's better.

I've added support for WPF and Xamarin, and I've hooked the existing Blazor support to the new setting. WinForms has a GL control as well, but unfortunately anything WinForms-related is completely bricked on my machine at the moment... I don't think any of the other views have GL support available.

I agree, this is now ready to go into dev.

I merged this for now, but I'll add a couple of improvements on #1692

Thanks for the PR!
