X-ray hit flash: drive a dedicated flash mode instead of the normal
reveal - pulse off (steady), intensity boost (xrayFlashBoost, default 3x),
snap-on, then restore authored color/pulse exactly. Fixes the weak/dark
flicker where the 0.35s hit window often caught only the pulse's near-off
plateau.
Spawn/respawn freeze: pool GPU RenderTextures across despawn->respawn
(TeardownGpu recycles, CreateRT pops) so a hider->hunter conversion no
longer churns ~70MB of RT alloc/free on every observer; reuse staging
textures to cut per-map GC. Defer the blank base-seed on reveal-gated
remote replicas (DeferInitialSeed) - the real pixels arrive with the
snapshot apply anyway; gate the FurShellRenderer alongside the body so a
deferred replica never shows the pooled RT's stale fur; EnsureBackendSeeded
+ TryCaptureSnapshot guard against capture-before-reseed.
