A mistake in the mesh normal refactor caused the wrong mesh to
be used when calculating normals with a shape key's deformation.
This commit fixes the normal calculation by using the correct mesh,
with just adjusted vertex positions, and calculating the results
directly into the result arrays when possible. This completely avoids
the need to make a local copy of the mesh, which makes sense,
since the only thing that changes is the vertex positions.

In some cases, the normal edit modifier calculated the normals on one
mesh with the "ensure" functions, then copied the mesh and retrieved
the layers "for write" on the copy. Since 59343ee1627f4c369e23, normal
layers are never copied, and normals are allocated with malloc instead
of calloc, so the mutable memory was uninitialized.
Fix by calculating normals on the correct mesh, and also add a warning
to the "for write" functions in the header.

Currently, when normals are calculated for a const mesh, a custom data
layer might be added if it doesn't already exist. Adding a custom data
layer to a mesh is not thread-safe, so this can be a problem in some
situations.
This commit moves derived mesh normals for polygons and
vertices out of `CustomData` to `Mesh_Runtime`. Most of the
hard work for this was already done by rBcfa53e0fbeed7178.
Some changes to logic elsewhere are necessary/helpful:
- No need to call both `BKE_mesh_runtime_clear_cache` and
`BKE_mesh_normals_tag_dirty`, since the former also does the latter.
- Cleanup/simplify mesh conversion and copying since normals are
handled with other runtime data.
Storing these normals like other runtime data clarifies their status
as derived data, meaning custom data moves more towards storing
original/editable data. This means normals won't automatically benefit
from the planned copy-on-write refactor (T95845), so it will have to be
added manually like for the other runtime data.

This removes manual handling of normals that was hard-coded
to false in the one place the function was called. This change
will help to make a fix to T95839 simpler.

Currently, whenever any BMesh is converted to a Mesh (except for edit
mode switching), original index (`CD_ORIGINDEX`) layers are added.
This is incorrect, because many operations just convert some Mesh into
a BMesh and then back, but they shouldn't make any assumption about
where their input mesh came from. It might even come from a primitive
in geometry nodes, where there are no original indices at all.
Conceptually, mesh original indices should be filled by the modifier
stack when first creating the evaluated mesh. So that's where they're
moved in this patch. A separate function now fills the indices with their
default (0,1,2,3...) values. The way the mesh wrapper system defers
the BMesh to Mesh conversion makes this a bit less obvious though.
The old behavior is incorrect, but it's also slower, because three
arrays the size of the mesh's vertices, edges, and faces had to be
allocated and filled during the BMesh to Mesh conversion, which just
ends up putting more pressure on the cache. In the many cases where
original indices aren't used, I measured an **8% speedup** for the
conversion (from 76.5ms to 70.7ms).
Generally there is an assumption that BMesh is "original" and Mesh is
"evaluated". After this patch, that assumption isn't quite as strong,
but it still exists for two reasons. First, original indices are added
whenever converting a BMesh "wrapper" to a Mesh. Second, original
indices are not added to the BMesh at the beginning of evaluation,
which assumes that every BMesh in the viewport is original and doesn't
need the mapping.

The evaluated mesh is a result of evaluated modifiers, and referencing
other evaluated IDs such as materials.
It can not be stored in the EditMesh structure which is intended to be
re-used by many areas. Such sharing was causing ownership errors causing
bugs like
T93855: Cycles crash with edit mode and simultaneous viewport and final render
The proposed solution is to store the evaluated edit mesh and its cage in
the object's runtime field. The motivation goes as following:
- It allows to avoid ownership problems like the ones in the linked report.
- Object level is chosen over mesh level is because the evaluated mesh
is affected by modifiers, which are on the object level.
This patch allows to have modifier stack of an object which shares mesh with
an object which is in edit mode to be properly taken into account (before
the change the modifier stack from the active object will be used for all
objects which share the mesh).
There is a change in the way how copy-on-write is handled in the edit mode to
allow proper state update when changing active scene (or having two windows
with different scenes). Previously, the copt-on-write would have been ignored
by skipping tagging CoW component. Now it is ignored from within the CoW
operation callback. This allows to update edit pointers for objects which are
not from the current depsgraph and where the edit_mesh was never assigned in
the case when the depsgraph was evaluated prior the active depsgraph.
There is no user level changes changes expected with the CoW handling changes:
should not affect on neither performance, nor memory consumption.
Tested scenarios:
- Various modifiers configurations of objects sharing mesh and be part of the
same scene.
- Steps from the reports: T93855, T82952, T77359
This also fixes T76609, T72733 and perhaps other reports.

As described in T91186, this commit moves mesh vertex normals into a
contiguous array of float vectors in a custom data layer, how face
normals are currently stored.
The main interface is documented in `BKE_mesh.h`. Vertex and face
normals are now calculated on-demand and cached, retrieved with an
"ensure" function. Since the logical state of a mesh is now "has
normals when necessary", they can be retrieved from a `const` mesh.
The goal is to use on-demand calculation for all derived data, but
leave room for eager calculation for performance purposes (modifier
evaluation is threaded, but viewport data generation is not).
**Benefits**
This moves us closer to a SoA approach rather than the current AoS
paradigm. Accessing a contiguous `float3` is much more efficient than
retrieving data from a larger struct. The memory requirements for
accessing only normals or vertex locations are smaller, and at the
cost of more memory usage for just normals, they now don't have to
be converted between float and short, which also simplifies code
In the future, the remaining items can be removed from `MVert`,
leaving only `float3`, which has similar benefits (see T93602).
Removing the combination of derived and original data makes it
conceptually simpler to only calculate normals when necessary.
This is especially important now that we have more opportunities
for temporary meshes in geometry nodes.
**Performance**
In addition to the theoretical future performance improvements by
making `MVert == float3`, I've done some basic performance testing
on this patch directly. The data is fairly rough, but it gives an idea
about where things stand generally.
- Mesh line primitive 4m Verts: 1.16x faster (36 -> 31 ms),
showing that accessing just `MVert` is now more efficient.
- Spring Splash Screen: 1.03-1.06 -> 1.06-1.11 FPS, a very slight
change that at least shows there is no regression.
- Sprite Fright Snail Smoosh: 3.30-3.40 -> 3.42-3.50 FPS, a small
but observable speedup.
- Set Position Node with Scaled Normal: 1.36x faster (53 -> 39 ms),
shows that using normals in geometry nodes is faster.
- Normal Calculation 1.6m Vert Cube: 1.19x faster (25 -> 21 ms),
shows that calculating normals is slightly faster now.
- File Size of 1.6m Vert Cube: 1.03x smaller (214.7 -> 208.4 MB),
Normals are not saved in files, which can help with large meshes.
As for memory usage, it may be slightly more in some cases, but
I didn't observe any difference in the production files I tested.
**Tests**
Some modifiers and cycles test results need to be updated with this
commit, for two reasons:
- The subdivision surface modifier is not responsible for calculating
normals anymore. In master, the modifier creates different normals
than the result of the `Mesh` normal calculation, so this is a bug
fix.
- There are small differences in the results of some modifiers that
use normals because they are not converted to and from `short`
anymore.
**Future improvements**
- Remove `ModifierTypeInfo::dependsOnNormals`. Code in each modifier
already retrieves normals if they are needed anyway.
- Copy normals as part of a better CoW system for attributes.
- Make more areas use lazy instead of eager normal calculation.
- Remove `BKE_mesh_normals_tag_dirty` in more places since that is
now the default state of a new mesh.
- Possibly apply a similar change to derived face corner normals.

Most of the fields in Mesh had no comments, or outdated misleading
comments. For example, "BMESH ONLY" referred to the BMesh project,
not the data structure. Given how much these structs are used, it should
save a lot of time to have proper comments.
I also rearranged the fields in mesh to have a more logical order. Now
the most important fields come first. In the process I was able to
remove 19 bytes of unnecessary padding (31->12). I just had to
change a `short` flag to `char`.

When enabling or disabling a Mesh Sequence Cache modifier of an Object
with a hair particle system, the hair would switch positions. This is
caused because original coordinates in Blender are expected to be
normalized, and toggling the modifier would cause the usage of different
orco layers: one that is normalized, and the other which isn't.
This bug exposes a few related issues:
- if the Alembic file did not have orco data,
`MOD_deform_mesh_eval_get`, used by the particle system modifier, would
add an orco layer without normalization
- `MOD_deform_mesh_eval_get` would also ignore the presence of an orco
layer (e.g. one that could have been read from Alembic)
- if the Alembic file did have orco data, the data would be read
unnormalized
To fix those various issues, original coordinates are normalized when
read from Alembic and unnormalized when written to Alembic; and a new
utility function `BKE_mesh_orco_ensure` is added to add a normalized
orco layer if none exists on the mesh already, this function derives
from the code used in the particle system.

Because mesh vertex and face normals are just derived data, they can
be calculated lazily instead of eagerly. Often normal calculation is
a relatively expensive task, and the calculation is often redundant
if the mesh is deformed afterwards anyway.
Instead, normals should be calculated only when they are needed. This
commit moves in that direction by adding a new function to tag a mesh's
normals dirty and replacing normal calculation with it in some places.

Supported multi-threading for bm_mesh_loops_calc_normals.
This is done by operating on vertex-loops instead of face-loops.
Single threaded operation still loops over faces since iterating
over vertices adds some overhead in the case of custom-normals
as the order used for accessing loops must be the same as iterating
of a faces loops.
From isolated timing tests of bm_mesh_loops_calc_normals on high
poly models, this gives between 3.5x to 10x speedup,
with larger gains for meshes with custom-normals.
NOTE: this is part one of two patches for multi-threaded auto-smooth,
tagging edges as sharp is still single threaded.

- Multi-thread BKE_mesh_recalc_looptri.
- Add BKE_mesh_recalc_looptri_with_normals,
this skips having to calculate normals for ngons.
Exact performance depends on number of faces, size of ngons and
available CPU cores.
For high poly meshes the isolated improvement to BKE_mesh_recalc_looptri
in my tests was between 6.7x .. 25.0x, with the largest gains seen in
meshes containing ngons with many sides.
The overall speedup for high poly meshes containing quads and triangles
is only ~20% although ngon heavy meshes can be much faster.
