This PR adds a short note in the README regarding WebGL-based traces such as scattergl, particularly in debugging contexts.

It clarifies that certain warnings (e.g., related to buffer clearing) may appear in strict environments if rendering operations are not fully specified.

This is based on insights gained while working on issue #7387 and PR #7390.

Hi @MzyzzG, thanks for the contribution. We're open to adding more information to help contributors write correct WebGL code, but currently this note is a little too vague to be helpful. Is there a WebGL documentation page that we could link to?

Also, this info should be added to CONTRIBUTING.md rather than README.md.
