Detailed Description

Base class for application layers that can be pushed/popped from the LayerStack.

Layers are a fundamental part of the engine's architecture, allowing for:

• Modular organization of game/application logic
• Independent update and render loops
• Event handling with propagation control
• ImGui integration for debugging/tools

Layers are processed in order, with later layers potentially overriding earlier ones. Each layer can handle events and choose whether to pass them to layers below.
