/// The buffer layout is frozen by the shader contract:
///
/// ```text
/// 0: eye.xyz, tan(fov / 2)
/// 1: forward.xyz, aspect
/// 2: right.xyz, width
/// 3: up.xyz, height
/// 4: ambient.xyz, light_count
/// 5: lighting_eye.xyz, max_bounces
/// 6: near_t, far_t, samples_per_axis, 0
/// 7: 0, 0, 0, 0
/// ```
///
/// followed by four `vec4` per light:
///
/// ```text
/// 0: position.xyz, kind
/// 1: direction.xyz, intensity
/// 2: color.xyz, falloff
/// 3: spot_cos, 0, 0, 0
/// ```
///
/// The camera basis is recomputed from `position`, `target`, and `up`, so a
/// caller never supplies a basis that disagrees with `target`. A degenerate
/// basis — a zero forward, a zero right, or an up parallel to forward — is
/// rejected rather than packed as a zero direction that would collapse every
/// ray onto one axis. The field of view must lie in `(0, PI)` and the depth
/// range must satisfy `0 <= near < far`; both are packed through
/// [`pack_finite`], so a `f64` far plane beyond the `f32` range is reported
/// rather than written as infinity.
///
/// The light count is taken from the input and never capped: a frame with
/// more lights than the packed-buffer limit allows is reported through the
/// overflow check, not silently truncated.
///
/// The supplied `out` is cleared and then reused, so its capacity is kept
/// and a caller packing every frame performs no allocation. Every value
/// the packer reads arrives through one [`RayTraceFrame`], the same
/// parameter type the CPU renderer takes, so the two backends cannot be
/// called with mismatched camera, lights, settings, or dimensions.
///
/// `out` is cleared only after the settings and the camera have been
/// validated, so the rejections a caller is most likely to hit — an
/// out-of-range sample grid, a zero or overflowing dimension, a
/// degenerate camera — leave the previous frame's contents intact. A
/// light whose components cannot be represented is a different case: that
/// check runs inside the write loop, after the clear, so such a frame
/// leaves a partially written buffer behind rather than the old one.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// - `&mut Vec<f32>` - The destination packed buffer, cleared then reused.
/// - `&RayTraceFrame<'_>` - The camera, lights, settings, and dimensions
///   to pack.
///
/// # Returns
///
/// - `Result<(), String>` - `Ok` once the block is packed, or the reason
///   the frame cannot be represented.
