Description
When the application is using post-processing, it doesn't make sense to create a context with anti-aliasing since post-processing performs drawing on a separate framebuffer.
Add AppSettings.setIgnoreSamples(boolean) to allow the user to specify that post-processing is used so the samples settings should be ignored.

Research direction
Start by locating AppSettings and the context-creation path that consumes the anti-aliasing samples setting. Trace how post-processing contexts are created, then verify that setIgnoreSamples(boolean) lets users bypass the samples setting when post-processing is enabled.
