RSC Chart Feature Catalog

This is the same data served by the list_chart_features/read_chart_feature tools in @spectrum-charts/mcp. Parameter shapes are intentionally not transcribed here — each feature points at its canonical *Options TypeScript type instead, so this catalog can't drift from the real source. "RSC support" reflects whether a JSX wrapper component exists today, including alpha/rc import paths (@adobe/react-spectrum-charts/alpha or /rc) — those are considered supported, just not yet in the stable barrel; a feature with no RSC component at all is still a real, spec-buildable feature for the Vega/Chart.js/D3 fallback path.
