Pull request overview

This PR converts the entire solution from using SharpDX (an archived, no-longer-maintained DirectX binding) to Silk.NET, a modern .NET DirectX 11 binding. It does this by introducing a new TombLib.Graphics.Dx11Toolkit namespace that provides an API-compatible wrapper layer over Silk.NET's raw COM pointer API, replacing SharpDX's managed wrapper classes. The PR is marked "WIP."

Changes:

• All SharpDX DLL references are removed from .csproj files; Silk.NET.Direct3D11 NuGet packages are added.
• A new TombLib.Graphics.Dx11Toolkit namespace is introduced with custom implementations of GraphicsDevice, Buffer, Texture2D, Effect, EffectCompiler, VertexInputLayout, render states, etc. using Silk.NET COM pointer API.
• All consumer code across TombEditor, WadTool, TombLib.Forms, and TombLib.Rendering is updated to use TombLib.Graphics.Dx11Toolkit types instead of SharpDX.Toolkit.Graphics types, and .ToSharpDX() conversion calls are removed.

@copilot code review[agent] Could you have a look at this PR and verify our Silk.NET port is production ready?

[Copilot]

@Nickelony I've opened a new pull request, #1142, to work on those changes. Once the pull request is ready, I'll request review from you.

I cannot give a code review, but I can leave a functionality review instead.

Functionally: I am not seeing anything out of the ordinary that isnt working. I have tried:

• Loading an existing project (passed)
• Placing static meshes (passed)
• Static mesh compiled in-engine (tested with Tomb Engine) (passed)
• Moveables placed and compiled in-game (passed)
• Imported Geo , and compiled in-game (passed)
• Animated Texture window works, animation ranges set and applied in game (passed)
• Node Editor window works (also slightly quicker than the master branch).
• Point, Spot, Effect and Shadow bulb visible in-editor (fog bulb still not though ;) )
• Level Settings window works and settings persist properly when closed -> reopened.
• Flyby Cameras work, and trigger in game correctly.
• Special floor flags (death / non-walkable / ghostblocks) render and operate as normal.

I cannot think of anything else to test, so I dont have any objection to this.

All functionality
