Description

Related to #5624, but I believe we need to decide what the correct solution is on the user side for our PI, TWO_PI, constants as the feedback for something like glm::pi<float> indicates a need for something simpler.

See also #5163 and #1007 for previous discussions.

Research direction

Start by reading the issue and the referenced discussions in #5624, #5163, and #1007 to understand the unresolved user-side replacement for PI, TWO_PI, and related constants. Done would require an agreed solution and corresponding updates to the affected examples, but the payload does not name specific files or tests.
