In-Game Debug UI

[xezon]

At some point we probably want to have some debug controls for in-game debugging purposes.

What is the prefered UI for this?

Options:

ImGui is very popular in the games industry. Allows for simple stateless ui drawing every render frame. Has backends for all sorts of renderers.

If we are really talking debugging purposes only, then i think ImGui is more than sufficient. It is also widely known, a proven solution and i think more people have experience with that. ImGui can also be styled if that is why RmlUi is getting thrown into the mix. I dont know why we would need HTML/CSS-ish support for debug UI, imho.

ImGUI could not only be used for debug tools, but a refresh to the GUI in worldbuilder and other tools. I wholly recommend it.
