I think this is very likely to fix
https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project/issues/2970
We had somebody report a stacktrace from the debugger, and it was
immediately after calling `gen-perms`.
I found that `gen-perms` writes past the end of a stack array during
this mission, and at the same time as the reported freezes.
I was unable to recreate the original freeze after making this change.
This PR adds a frame rate option to the graphics menu for some of the
most common refresh rates.
Jak 2 has much better support for variable frame rates than Jak 1 out of
the box, but there are still some edge cases, most prominently the fact
that sprites are still limited to the 300 tick system, which is most
noticeable on glow sprites. For this, I abused the glow boost debug
setting to scale the glow based on the frame rate.
While testing, I noticed two other cases that I have also patched,
there's likely to be many more that are yet to be found, but aside from
that, the game is playable as normal.

This tries to match the original behavior of the sprite allocation
"randomness", which should reduce the number of very empty sprite blocks
sent to C++.
- fixes flava and mode not being correct after a new music starts
playback by setting them every frame (there is at most 1 frame where
it's wrong).
- fixes city pursuit theme not playing if the city alarm was triggered
while the music wasn't playing yet.
Some general improvements for the texture animator:
- Clouds are special cased, saving about 1 ms per frame
- Adjusting the amount of clouds now actually works.
- Fixed an issue with the brightness of clouds, and the way that they
fade out around the edges.
Fixes#2167
Reduces test flakiness if ran on multiple threads and gets rid of a few
hundred files from the source tree
I believe this also makes #1434 irrelevant and it can be closed.

Fix an issue where the commit sha would not use the right blending mode
if `draw-raw-image` is running at the same time.
Fix an issue where japanese subtitles would accidentally overwrite other
textures, leading to random textures missing. (in particular, glows
would disappear after watching a cutscene with the subtitles on)
- fix deci2 hang when closing the game in retail mode.
- change bigmap to always filter because the pixels look really ugly.
- don't start the game in fullscreen by default if we're debugging.
This changes how `BlitDisplays.cpp` works so it looks at the current
render buffer, rather than the back buffer.
This approach is a bit faster because we avoid copying the back buffer
on every single frame.
It also removes the black frames when the transition starts/stops.
The remaining issues are:
- there's still a single frame of weirdness with the sprite glow
renderer.
- when changing resolutions, it doesn't work super well.
When drawing the spinning palace, there's a terrible hack that lets some
stuff be drawn with different camera matrices.
The ocean is drawn with camera-other (which spins), but was being culled
with camera (doesn't spin). This changes ocean to use the right camera
matrix.
Note that the ocean is special when it comes to camera-other - it always
uses camera-other if there is one. Other uses are set per-level and
should already be handled correctly.
This should fix a crash and animation bug in snowy. The way to trigger
the bug:
- go on ice
- move forward slowly
- stop moving forward. Reach zero speed when the frame number isn't
between 30 and 35 of the ice walking animation
- Due to this bug, the animation gets stuck at frame 60
- Take damage (due to normal lurker or ice lurker)
- Sidekick eye animation crashes because a frame number is NaN.
- Add security wall animation
- Add waterfall animations
- Add lava animations
- Update layer values from the game to fix the security wall
- Remove leftover debug in `level.gc` that would break level-specific
animations on the second time you visited the level
- Optionally load animated slot textures to the pool so generic can use
them (fixes skull gems in UI)
Added framework to do texture animations entirely in C++. Currently only
works on relatively simple ones, and doesn't handle updating all
parameters - only the speeds.
Connected texture animations to merc and tfrag for skull gems, dark
bomb, and scrolling conveyors.
Cleaned up Tfragment/Tfrag3, which used to be two classes. This was one
of the first C++ renderers, so it had a weird design.
