Description

This will require some changes to how wgpu-native works, namely we'll definitely want to be able to return Bevy's instance rather than requiring users to create a new instance themselves. libprocessing will need to ship with a defined version of wgpu-native that users will be expected to interact with if they want to share wgpu handles between libprocessing and their custom WebGPU code. There's a ton of trickiness here and this will likely be a pretty difficult task.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how libprocessing currently creates and exposes its Bevy and wgpu-native instances, then review the expected wgpu-native version and handle-sharing boundary. Done means the manual wgpu API and instance-sharing behavior are defined and implemented without requiring users to create a separate instance.
