- Added space below non doc-string comments to make it clear
these aren't comments for the symbols directly below them.
- Use doxy sections for some headers.
- Minor improvements to doc-strings.

Minor manual tweak to prevent wrapping an array into columns.

In the current implementation, cryptomatte passes are connected to the node
and elements are picked by using the eyedropper tool on a special pick channel.
This design has two disadvantages - both connecting all passes individually
and always having to switch to the picker channel are tedious.
With the new design, the user selects the RenderLayer or Image from which the
Cryptomatte layers are directly loaded (the type of pass is determined by an
enum). This allows the node to automatically detect all relevant passes.
Then, when using the eyedropper tool, the operator looks up the selected
coordinates from the picked Image, Node backdrop or Clip and reads the picked
object directly from the Renderlayer/Image, therefore allowing to pick in any
context (e.g. by clicking on the Combined pass in the Image Viewer). The
sampled color is looked up in the metadata and the actual name is stored
in the cryptomatte node. This also allows to remove a hash by just removing
the name from the matte id.
Technically there is some loss of flexibility because the Cryptomatte pass
inputs can no longer be connected to other nodes, but since any compositing
done on them is likely to break the Cryptomatte system anyways, this isn't
really a concern in practise.
In the future, this would also allow to automatically translate values to names
by looking up the value in the associated metadata of the input, or to get a
better visualization of overlapping areas in the Pick output since we could
blend colors now that the output doesn't have to contain the exact value.

Utility to construct a cryptomatte session from a render result or
openexr file. This will allow D3959 to be more aware of the context
it is working on and would also support external render engines in
the cryptomatte color picker.

Cryptomatte layers in Blender are predefined. Other render engines
might have other naming schemes. This patch will allow creation of
cryptomatte layers with other names. This will be used by D3959 to
load cryptomatte openexr files from other render engines.
EEVEE and Cycles still use our fix naming scheme so no changes are
detectable by users.

This patch adds manifest parsing to Cryptomatte. Normally when loading
cryptomatte layer from an OpenEXR file the manifest contains data to
convert a hash to its original name of the object/material. In the
future we want to use this to support lookup of cryptomatte
hashes and show it to the user.
Currently this logic isn't available to users (for now), but is required
by D3959 where a new cryptomatte workflow is implemented.

Current implementation was to restricting for future enhancements where
the CryptomatterLayer could be read from existing metadata.

Stores cryptomatte hashes as meta data to the render result. Compositors could
use this for lookup on names in stead of hashes.

Remove DNA headers, using forward declarations where possible.
Also removed duplicate header, header including it's self
and unnecessary inclusion of libc system headers from BKE header.

This changes the way how the mattes are stored in the compositor node. This used to
be a single string what was decoded/encoded when needed. The new data structure
stores all entries in `CryptomatteEntry` and is converted to the old `matte_id`
property on the fly.
This is done for some future changes in the workflow where a more structured
approach leads to less confusing and easier to read code.

Cryptomatte is a standard to efficiently create mattes for compositing. The
renderer outputs the required render passes, which can then be used in the
compositor to create masks for specified objects. Unlike the Material and Object
Index passes, the objects to isolate are selected in compositing, and mattes
will be anti-aliased.
Cryptomatte was already available in Cycles this patch adds it to the EEVEE
render engine. Original specification can be found at
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Psyop/Cryptomatte/master/specification/IDmattes_poster.pdf
**Accurate mode**
Following Cycles, there are two accuracy modes. The difference between the two
modes is the number of render samples they take into account to create the
render passes. When accurate mode is off the number of levels is used. When
accuracy mode is active, the number of render samples is used.
**Deviation from standard**
Cryptomatte specification is based on a path trace approach where samples and
coverage are calculated at the same time. In EEVEE a sample is an exact match on
top of a prepared depth buffer. Coverage is at that moment always 1. By sampling
multiple times the number of surface hits decides the actual surface coverage
for a matte per pixel.
**Implementation Overview**
When drawing to the cryptomatte GPU buffer the depth of the fragment is matched
to the active depth buffer. The hashes of each cryptomatte layer is written in
the GPU buffer. The exact layout depends on the active cryptomatte layers. The
GPU buffer is downloaded and integrated into an accumulation buffer (stored in
CPU RAM).
The accumulation buffer stores the hashes + weights for a number of levels,
layers per pixel. When a hash already exists the weight will be increased. When
the hash doesn't exists it will be added to the buffer.
After all the samples have been calculated the accumulation buffer is processed.
During this phase the total pixel weights of each layer is mapped to be in a
range between 0 and 1. The hashes are also sorted (highest weight first).
Blender Kernel now has a `BKE_cryptomatte` header that access to common
functions for cryptomatte. This will in the future be used by the API.
* Alpha blended materials aren't supported. Alpha blended materials support in
render passes needs research how to implement it in a maintainable way for any
render pass.
This is a list of tasks that needs to be done for the same release that this
patch lands on (Blender 2.92)
* T82571 Add render tests.
* T82572 Documentation.
* T82573 Store hashes + Object names in the render result header.
* T82574 Use threading to increase performance in accumulation and post
processing.
* T82575 Merge the cycles and EEVEE settings as they are identical.
* T82576 Add RNA to extract the cryptomatte hashes to use in python scripts.
