+ * The emitter tick: one thread per emitter table row, deciding how many particles each emitter
+ * spawns this frame. This is the pass that took spawning off the CPU — the host no longer walks the
+ * emitters, and no longer knows or cares how many there are.
+ *
+ * Per live row it:
+ *
+ * 1. picks up the row's GPU-owned state (the `emitter_state` table, see
+ *    {@link ../data/PARTICLE_EMITTER_STATE.js}) — or starts it over, when the state's generation is
+ *    not the record's, which is how both a brand-new row and a reused one are recognised without
+ *    the CPU clearing anything;
+ * 2. takes whatever the spawn-command pass queued into `pending` (the CPU's bursts, and in time
+ *    whatever a VM opcode asks for) into the accumulator;
+ * 3. if the emitter opts into culling, tests its bounds sphere — in world space, through its scene
+ *    node's `global` — against the camera frustum; a culled emitter sleeps, accruing time it pays
+ *    back as a bounded burst when it is next seen;
+ * 4. integrates `spawn_rate * dt`, and turns the whole part of the accumulator into this frame's
+ *    count — clamped by the frame's spawn budget, which the reset pass seeded from the dead count,
+ *    so an emitter is only ever debited for particles the pool can hold;
+ * 5. writes that count to `spawn_counts.elements[row]`.
+ *
+ * `spawn_counts` is the input of a prefix scan, and the scan's inclusive sums are what the emit
+ * pass expands: one thread per particle, each locating its emitter by binary search over the sums.
+ * That is the same shape the rasteriser uses to expand meshes into meshlets, and it is what makes
+ * the per-emitter count unbounded — no thread here loops over its particles.
+ *
+ * The rows are walked with the emitter table's page iterator, one page group per workgroup, so an
+ * unallocated page costs one word read and a freed row costs one bit test. The state rows live in
+ * the same database buffer, bound once and read-write, and are read and written whole: each row is
+ * one thread's, so nothing here needs an atomic. Rows the walk skips leave their count at zero,
+ * which is why the counts buffer is cleared before this runs. The scan's `count` header is written
+ * by the first thread, from the table's element capacity, which is the only number the host
+ * supplies.
