+ * Compute a length for an array holding a texture.
+ * `type` is the array's element type.
+ * `width`, `height` are the texture dimensions.
+ * `bpp` is the texture's pixel size, in bits per pixels.
+ * The calculation computes the size of the texture in bits `width * height * bpp`,
+ * then divides by 8 to get the size in bytes, then divides by the element type size.
