Adapter

An Adapter is a factory for Device instances for a specific backend (e.g. WebGPU or WebGL).

Each GPU backend exports a singleton adapter instance.

Methods on adapters are normally not called directly, they are imported and passed to methods like [luma.createDevice] that select the appropriate adapter before calling it.
