🌬️ NEW SYSTEM: WindFoliageSystem

File: src/systems/WindFoliageSystem.js

Features:

• Vertex Shader for hair animation (Kai, Ana, Gronk dreads)

• Particle Emitter for falling leaves from trees
• Wobble Physics for realistic leaf falling
• Biome-Specific Wind:
  • Mountains: Strong wind (2.0)
  • Swamp: Light breeze (0.3)
  • Grassland: Medium wind (1.0)
  • Desert: Heavy wind (1.5)
  • Tundra: Strong cold wind (1.8)
  • Forest: Moderate wind (0.8)
  • Volcanic: Turbulent wind (1.2)

Performance:

• Uses shaders instead of sprite animations (RAM optimized)
• Global wind_strength variable
• CPU-side Perlin noise fallback
