/// If an asset is set to the `RENDER_WORLD` but not the `MAIN_WORLD`, the asset will be
/// unloaded from the asset server once it's been extracted and prepared in the render world.
///
/// Unloading the asset saves on memory, as for most cases it is no longer necessary to keep
/// it in RAM once it's been uploaded to the GPU's VRAM. However, this means you can no longer
/// access the asset from the CPU (via the `Assets<T>` resource) once unloaded (without re-loading it).
///
/// If you never need access to the asset from the CPU past the first frame it's loaded on,
/// or only need very infrequent access, then set this to `RENDER_WORLD`. Otherwise, set this to
/// `RENDER_WORLD | MAIN_WORLD`.
///
/// If you have an asset that doesn't actually need to end up in the render world, like an Image
/// that will be decoded into another Image asset, use `MAIN_WORLD` only.
///
/// ## Platform-specific
///
/// On Wasm, it is not possible for now to free reserved memory. To control memory usage, load assets
/// in sequence and unload one before loading the next. See this
/// [discussion about memory management](https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/issues/1397) for more
/// details.
