Evaluate Silk.NET as an offramp to solve some RT tech debt (e.g. issues/limitations with Clyde, incomplete SDL3 migration) #33

Description

@FairlySadPanda

After @Jezithyr mentioned Stride (https://stride3d.net/) I have done some reading into its foundation layer, Silk.NET (https://dotnet.github.io/Silk.NET/)

This does not have the real ideaguy trendy thing I know excites people (WebGPU) but it DOES have both OpenGL and Vulkan as rendering options, and covers several things that are currently handled via SDL3, OpenTK, etc.

As part of Engine training for new staff it would be a good project to evaluate the potential of Silk.NET to see if it could solve some problems. If the answer is no, that can be made by a maintainer who has spent time with the deepest lore in the engine and thus is more practised on maintaining it.
