- * DoF ray-march — 1-D directional-slice compute form (Form-1 Phase B, the real
- * Stachowiak GPC-2024 structure). The 2D Vogel gather ({@link
- * shader_dof_raymarch_compute}, measured slower than the fragment reference) is
- * reorganised so the aperture is sampled along `D` evenly-spaced directions
- * (jittered per pixel), each marched ± both ways, and along one direction the
- * **per-step CoC read is shared across the `M` aperture radii** — `D·2·N`
- * reads instead of `D·2·M·N`. Reuses the Step-2b workgroup CoC cache; the
- * per-slope nearest hit is the verified `firstLeadingBit` bitmask (Step 2a).
- *
- * NOT bit-identical to the reference (a different sampling of the disc): the
- * bokeh is a `D`-gon rather than the Vogel spiral. Validate visually + profile;
- * the win is the read-sharing across slopes. Single dispatch, register
- * accumulation (no cross-dispatch accumulator). All sub-rays contribute (found
- * → hit colour, else → sharp centre) exactly as the reference, so the weighted
- * average and the flood/occlusion behaviour match.
- *
- * Selected by `DepthOfField.march_mode === DOF_MARCH_MODE.SLICE`.
