Rhys hit a fatal wgpu validation panic loading /play on a 1440p display:
Surface::configure ... Requested was (2560, 1440), maximum extent for
either dimension is 2048
The earlier scale_factor_override(1.0) fix only neutralised HiDPI (CSS×DPR);
it didn't help when the *logical* viewport itself exceeds 2048. `fit_canvas_to_
parent` sizes the wgpu surface to the canvas's parent, so a 2560-wide viewport
configures a 2560-wide surface — past WebGL2's 2048 per-dimension limit on
laptop/integrated GPUs, and the panic kills the WASM thread on the first frame.
Wrap the canvas in #bevy-wrap and, before init, clamp that element's max-
width/height to the device's actual gl.MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE (falling back to the
2048 WebGL2 floor). fit_canvas_to_parent then never produces a surface larger
than the GPU allows. Only devices at the 2048 floor letterbox (centered); GPUs
that report 4096/8192 still fill the viewport.
