Function: resolveMaterialChannelNodes()

resolveMaterialChannelNodes(material, channels?): Record<string, TSLNode>

Resolves every channel in a channel array (see NTCFormat. CHANNELS, or NTCFormat.js's doc comment on the descriptor shape) to its raw (physical, un-encoded) TSL node, via each channel's own resolveNode(material). This is a fully generic loop - it has no knowledge of what any particular channel key means; that knowledge lives entirely in the channel descriptor itself (see NTCFormat.js). Baking, channel-preview materials, and constant-channel detection all build on top of this (or, for channels classified as constant, each channel's own resolveConstant, called from classifyMaterialChannels below).

A channel without its own resolveNode (only possible for a caller- supplied alwaysConstant channel that skips node resolution entirely - see classifyMaterialChannels) falls back to its resolved constant value, converted to a node, so every channel still has some preview-able node here even if it's never actually driven by the network.
