feat: add fog effects to Weather component with shader optimizations

- Enhanced the Weather component to support fog effects alongside existing rain and snow options, including customizable parameters for density, speed, and height.
- Introduced a new fog shader with optimizations for performance and realism, including dynamic height concentration and improved visual quality.
- Updated documentation to include detailed guidelines for fog parameters and examples for various fog scenarios.
- Refactored existing rain and snow shaders for better performance and consistency across weather effects.
- Modified sample application to demonstrate the new fog effect in a canvas environment.

-- **Gameplay Events**: Use medium presets (density 150-250) for weather-related gameplay
-- **Dramatic Moments**: Use heavy presets (density 280-380) for cutscenes or intense moments
-- **Performance**: Lower density (60-120) for mobile devices or when many effects are active
+- **Atmospheric Background**: Use light presets (density 60-100 for rain/snow, 0.3-0.6 for fog) for subtle ambiance
