- Improved Renderer and RenderTarget performance, resulting in a 40% increase in frame rate.
   - Improved SaveTypeWriterReader: It will now attempt to compress files if the compressed size is smaller; otherwise, it will default to an uncompressed format.
   - Fixed and improved Sound Manager:
   --- All SoundManager.Play methods now return a SoundInstance, allowing you to set up transitions or other effects.
   --- Sound assets can now be set to always loop, eliminating the need to use blocking to keep them playing on a channel.
   --- Removed channel blocking, which also led to the removal of fade-in and fade-out functionality.
   --- Added functionality to check if a sound is playing on a channel based on either the sound asset or the sound instance.
   --- Added sound instance pan and sound channel pan, allowing sounds to be adjusted to play through the left or right speaker.
   --- Improved Master Channel behavior to function properly across all channels.
