Description
All non-survey layers should be turned into BG layers before upload. The plugin should go through Themes and generate bg layers (as MBTiles?) and use them instead. This will speed up rendering of projects on Input devices with limited resources, as they will not need to handle styling logic and labelling.

Research direction
Start by tracing the plugin's upload flow and how it processes Themes. Resolve whether background layers should be generated as MBTiles or another format, then define how non-survey layers are selected and substituted before upload. Done means uploaded projects use generated background layers so Input devices do not need to perform styling and labelling.
