This includes much improved GPU rendering performance, viewport interactivity,
new shadow catcher, revamped sampling settings, subsurface scattering anisotropy,
new GPU volume sampling, improved PMJ sampling pattern, and more.
Some features have also been removed or changed, breaking backwards compatibility.
Including the removal of the OpenCL backend, for which alternatives are under
development.

Issue revealed by rB546314fc9669 change, also error itself exited before
that commit.
Now we do accept git command to fail when trying to checkout the
specified branch from sub-modules, and only actually error in case the
fall-back branch (aka master) cannot be properly checked out.
Thanks fot Ray molenkamp (@LazyDodo) for report and initial patch
(D12560).

VS2019 had a compiler update moving it into the
range that was used to detect VS2022. This patch
updates the detection to the current VS2022
preview compiler version.

Needed for studio sprite-fright frozen branch.
Also do not overwrite branch for git sub-modules when it is defined, and
fallback to `master` branch in case specified branch is not found in a
specific sub-repository.

The /Zc:inline flag is by default off in the MSVC
compiler however when you build with msbuild it adds
it to the build flags on its own.
Ninja however does not decide on its own to add
flags you didn't ask for and was building without
this flag.
This change explicitly adds the compiler flag so
msbuild and ninja builds are once more building
with the same build flags leading to smaller .obj
files when building with ninja and lightening the
workload for the linker.
This flag is available starting MSVC 2013 update 2
so does not need to be guarded with version checks.

Compressing blendfiles can help save a lot of disk space, but the slowdown
while loading and saving is a major annoyance.
Currently Blender uses Zlib (aka gzip aka Deflate) for compression, but there
are now several more modern algorithms that outperform it in every way.
In this patch, I decided for Zstandard aka Zstd for several reasons:
- It is widely supported, both in other programs and libraries as well as in
general-purpose compression utilities on Unix
- It is extremely flexible - spanning several orders of magnitude of
compression speeds depending on the level setting.
- It is pretty much on the Pareto frontier for all of its configurations
(meaning that no other algorithm is both faster and more efficient).
One downside of course is that older versions of Blender will not be able to
read these files, but one can always just re-save them without compression or
decompress the file manually with an external tool.
The implementation here saves additional metadata into the compressed file in
order to allow for efficient seeking when loading. This is standard-compliant
and will be ignored by other tools that support Zstd.
If the metadata is not present (e.g. because you manually compressed a .blend
file with another tool), Blender will fall back to sequential reading.
Saving is multithreaded to improve performance. Loading is currently not
multithreaded since it's not easy to predict the access patterns of the
loading code when seeking is supported.
In the future, we might want to look into making this more predictable or
disabling seeking for the main .blend file, which would then allow for
multiple background threads that decompress data ahead of time.
The compression level was chosen to get sizes comparable to previous versions
at much higher speeds. In the future, this could be exposed as an option.

This adds support to compile the html python api docs from the command line by running `make doc_py` matching support between windows and unix.
This patch also makes it so the compiler is not needed if you set the `blender_bin` variable, this affects icon generation as well.
In the future, I want to move away from generating the build output in the build directory but that can come in a later change.

The Xcode IDE can also benefit from the options:
- WINDOWS_USE_VISUAL_STUDIO_SOURCE_FOLDERS
- WINDOWS_USE_VISUAL_STUDIO_PROJECT_FOLDERS
So add suport to these options and also renames them as they are no
longer limited to just Windows and Visual Studio.

This adds support for building the icons from make.bat
unlike bash there is no passing environment variables
on the command line.
The scripts go out of their way to locate both blender
and inkscape however if they are not found, the user is
given a helpful error message telling them how to set
the variables.
Although some extra help can be given there, if your
normal build is a 2019 full build running
`make 2019 full icons`
will help it find the blender executable as well.
finally if you know the name of your build folder
running
`make builddir build_windows_Lite_x64_vc16_Release icons`
will also work, if all fails you can point directly to
the blender executable by running
`set BLENDER_BIN=c:\where\blender\lives\blender.exe`
before running `make icons` or `make icons_geom`
The python scripts needed some small modifications since
without the PATHEXT, SystemRoot and SystemDrive
environment variables python will not initialize properly
on windows. (Not blender related, even mainline python
won't start without those)

For some reasons looks like those shortcuts could get out of sync, which
created weird hard to understand building errors.
So for sake of simplicity and security, just re-create them all the
time, just like we update ld paths.

For Blender.app: dropping libomp.dylib next to Blender executable is
enough for it getting picked up since `@executable_path` is an rpath.
For non-distributed binaries datatoc, makesdna, tests etc, code for
copying libomp.dylib to build folder is removed and replaced by
CMake's rpath option for *build* tree.
For bpy.so, the post build rpath change has also been replaced by CMake
rpath option for *install* tree.
Since -id has been changed in D11748, remove the
`install_name_tool -change ...` command.
Any dylib can just be dropped at `MAC_BLENDER_TARGET_DYLIBS_DIR`
hereafter. Appending dylib path to `CMAKE_BUILD_RPATH` will be needed
for datatoc etc if linked against one (instead of copying the
dylibs around).

This is causing issues for some users launching Blender, because EGL indirectly
requires GLVND, which is not installed by default on e.g. Ubuntu.
This reverts commit 0b18a618b88b22663e05eca0f4d976875710e7cc.

This will replace GLX with EGL for X11. GLEW does not support GLX and EGL
at the same time. Most distributions build GLEW with GLX support, so we
have to use the externally provided GLEW and build with EGL support.
This effectively sets WITH_SYSTEM_GLEW to OFF for all Linux configurations.

This has been a huge pain to get working, for several reasons (new flags
needed, patching is now mandatory, etc.).
Further more, discovered that debian OIIO package is now silently
relying on OpenCV, without even proper handling of this dependency (at
least in the `-dev` package), so had to revert to force-build own OIIO
again on that distro for the time being.

WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG was used for rendering BVH debugging passes. But since we
mainly use Embree an OptiX now, this information is no longer important.
WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG_NAN will enable additional checks for NaNs and invalid values
in the kernel, for Cycles developers. Previously these asserts where enabled in
all debug builds, but this is too likely to crash Blender in scenes that render
fine regardless of the NaNs. So this is behind a CMake option now.

This diff somewhat snowballed out of updating OIDN to 1.4.1 it had some
changes that allowed us to remove the arm hacks we had in place and
revert to using identical versions for a whole bunch of deps. But that
required an update to ISPC which needed a newer LLVM and if we're
updating LLVM we may as well update OSL, and when we update OSL, OIIO
may as well be dragged in soo......anyhow...
This diff updates:
LLVM 9.0.0 (11.0.1 for mac/arm) -> 12.0.0
OIIO 2.1.15.0 -> 2.2.15.1
OSL 1.11.10.0 -> 1.11.14.1
winflex_bison 2.5.5-> 2.5.24 (ispc needed newer bison, windows only dep)
OIDN 1.4.0 -> 1.4.1
ISPC v1.14.1(random hash for mac/arm) -> v1.16.0
Flex 2.6.4 (ISPC needed newer Flex than available on CentOS 7)
and removes most of the "special arm/mac" versions. I think just ssl and
embree are left with special versions.
notable changes:
@LazyDodo included some clang headers in the linux/mac harvest which are
needed to start writing custom clang based tooling like D9465 these were
already shipping on windows, but not the other platforms.
[macOS] Change the `LC_ID_DYLIB` of OpenMP for {D11997}. This changes
where the executables look for dylibs.
