+   * When enabled, the Node automatically resizes based on its content
+   *
+   * **Texture Autosize Mode:**
+   * - When the Node has a texture, it automatically resizes to match the
+   *   texture's dimensions when the texture loads
+   * - This ensures images display at their natural size without manual sizing
+   * - Text Nodes always use this mode regardless of this setting
+   *
+   * **Children Autosize Mode:**
+   * - When the Node has no texture but contains children, it automatically
+   *   resizes to encompass all children's bounds
+   * - Calculates the bounding box that contains all child positions, dimensions,
+   *   and transforms (scale, rotation, mount/pivot points)
+   * - Creates container behavior where the parent grows to fit its content
+   * - Updates dynamically as children are added, removed, or transformed
+   *
+   * **Mode Selection Logic:**
+   * - Texture mode takes precedence over children mode
+   * - Mode switches automatically when texture is added/removed
+   * - If no texture and no children, autosize has no effect
+   *
+   * **Performance:**
+   * - Children mode uses efficient transform caching and differential updates
+   * - Only recalculates when child transforms actually change
+   * - Minimal memory allocation with factory function patterns
