Breaking Change: Refactor render-target-system by @GoodBoyDigital in #9872
- Note: only a breaking change from other v8 versions
Breaking Change: standardise defaultOptions name by @Zyie in #9863
Breaking Change: removes deprecations and manifest as object by @Zyie in #9865
Breaking Change: only destroy context by default if context is owned by @GoodBoyDigital in #9870
- The new default means that when you destroy a Graphics if the context was created by that graphics object it will also be destroyed. This should reduce the number of memory leaks users experience.

🔥 Breaking

Breaking: remove the texture listener on sprite view by @GoodBoyDigital in #9803
This PR removes the dynamic addition and removal of update events for textures for performance optimization. When swapping textures on a sprite, it was observed that about 70% of the rendering time was spent on managing these listeners.

With this change any modifications to a texture (e.g., changing the frame) will not be immediately reflected in sprites using that texture. To see the changes, developers will need to either:
- Reassign the texture to the sprite, or
- Call onUpdate() manually.
This trade-off is justified as developers are more likely to swap textures on sprites every frame than to modify existing textures—modifying textures frequently is a discouraged practice.

🔥 Breaking

Breaking: Remove settings object by @Zyie in #9737

// Can also be passed into the renderer directly e.g `autoDetectrenderer({resolution: 1})` 
settings.RESOLUTION -> AbstractRenderer.defaultOptions.resolution

// Can also be passed into the renderer directly e.g `autoDetectrenderer({failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat: false})` 
setting.FAIL_IF_MAJOR_PERFORMANCE_CAVEAT -> AbstractRenderer.defaultOptions.failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat

settings.ADAPTER -> DOMAdapter.get()/DOMAdapter.set()

Breaking: Application type now accepts Renderer instead of view by @Zyie in #9740

const app = new Application<Renderer<HTMLCanvasElement>()

app.canvas // HTMLCanvasElement

this also works with just initialising a renderer

const webgl = new WebGLRenderer<HTMLCanvasElement>()
const webgpu = new WebGPURenderer<HTMLCanvasElement>()

Breaking: Adjust Texture.from by @Zyie in #9744
- Texture.fromBuffer removed, use Texture.from
- Texture.from can now generate a texture from resources such as HTMLCanvasElement/HTMLImageElement/HTMLVideoElement

Breaking: Convert blend mode filters to extensions by @Zyie in #9745

The new complex blendModes e.g 'vivid-light have been moved out into extensions to decrease bundle size
If you want access to the new blend mode you can do the following:

  import 'pixi.js/blendModes' // adds all new blend modes

  // or
  import {extensions, VividLightBlend} from 'pixi.js'
  extensions.add(VividLightBlend)
  container.blendMode = 'vivid-light' // only this blend mode will be available

🎁 Added

Added: HTML tagStyles by @GoodBoyDigital in #9734

HTMLText now has a new param called tagStyles were you can define custom tags in your text 👍

new Text({
    text:'<red>Red</red>,<blue>Blue</blue>,<green>Green</green>', 
    renderMode:'html',
    style:{
        fontFamily: 'DM Sans',
        fill: 'white',
        fontSize:100,
        tagStyles:{
            red:{
                fill:'red',
            },
            blue:{
                fill:'blue',
            },
            green:{
                fill:'green',
            }
        }
        }
 });
