// Test suite for GUI shader linking failure

// Problem: From current_problem/README.md and sdl3_app.log:
// 2026-01-07 16:17:44.455 [ERROR] BgfxGuiService::CreateProgram: bgfx::createProgram failed to link shaders
// 2026-01-07 16:17:44.455 [ERROR] BgfxGuiService::InitializeResources: Failed to create GUI shader program
// 2026-01-07 16:17:44.456 [WARN] BgfxGuiService::PrepareFrame: GUI resources not initialized
//
// Root Cause (from VULKAN_SHADER_LINKING_PROBLEM.md):
// Integer uniforms (GL_INT) were incorrectly mapped to UniformType::Sampler in shaderc_spirv.cpp
// This caused Vulkan to try creating sampler bindings for data uniforms → shader linking failure
//
// The Fix: Map GL_INT to UniformType::Vec4 instead of Sampler
//
// These tests document the problem and ensure the fix works

// - uniform int textureSampler; (for texture unit selection)

// 1. bgfx creates uniform as sampler type
// 2. Vulkan backend tries to create descriptor binding for sampler
// 3. But uniform is actually integer data, not texture sampler
// 4. Descriptor layout creation fails
// 5. Shader program linking fails
