* External engines do not use the PBVH and need slower depsgraph updates.
* Final depsgraph tag after stroke finishes was missing for sculpt color
painting, caused missing updates for other viewports as well as any
modifiers or nodes on other objects using the colors.

BKE_sculpt_mask_layers_ensure now takes a depsgraph argument and
will evaluate the depsgraph if a multires mask layer is added.
This is necassary to update the multires runtime data so that
pbvh knows it has a grids mask layer.
Also added code to update pbvh->gridkey.

Two new normal-based automasking modes.
The first mode, "brush", compares vertex normals with the initial
normal at the beginning of the brush stroke.
The second, "view", compares vertex normals with the view normal.
If "occlusion" is on then rays will be shot from each vertex to test
if it is occluded by other geometry (note: this can be very slow).\
Only geometry inside the sculpt mesh is considered.
Each mode has an associated angular limit and a falloff.

Add new cavity automasking mode based on local mesh
curvature. Cavity masking is a great way to quickly add
detail in crevices and the like. It's meant to be used
with the Paint brush in color attribute mode. It does
work with other brushes but the results can be unpredictable.
{F13131497}
The old "dirty mask" operator has been replace with a new
"mask from cavity" operator that shares the same code with
cavity automasking.
Differences from the sculpt-dev implementation:
* It uses the word "cavity." When I first implemented
this I wasn't aware
this feature existed in other software (and other
paint modes in Blender),
and for reasons that escape me today I initially
decided to call it a concave or
concavity mask.
* The cavity factor works a bit differently. It's
no longer non-linear and functions as a simple
scale around 0.5f.
* Supports custom curves.
* Supports blurring.

New unified attribute API for sculpt code.
= Basic Design =
The sculpt attribute API can create temporary or permanent attributes (only supported in `PBVH_FACES` mode). Attributes are created via `BKE_sculpt_attribute_ensure.`
Attributes can be explicit CustomData attributes or simple array-based pseudo-attributes (this is useful for PBVH_GRIDS and PBVH_BMESH).
== `SculptAttributePointers` ==
There is a structure in `SculptSession` for convenience attribute pointers, `ss->attrs`. Standard attributes should assign these; the attribute API will automatically clear them when the associated attributes are released. For example, the automasking code stores its factor attribute layer in `ss->attrs.automasking_factor`.
== Naming ==
Temporary attributes should use the SCULPT_ATTRIBUTE_NAME macro for naming, it takes an entry in `SculptAttributePointers` and builds a layer name.
== `SculptAttribute` ==
Attributes are referenced by a special `SculptAttribute` structure, which holds
all the info needed to look up elements of an attribute at run time.
All of these structures live in a preallocated flat array in `SculptSession`, `ss->temp_attributes`. This is extremely important. Since any change to the `CustomData` layout can in principle invalidate every extant `SculptAttribute`, having them all in one block of memory whose location doesn't change allows us to update them transparently.
This makes for much simpler code and eliminates bugs. To see why this is tricky to get right, imagine we want to create three attributes in PBVH_BMESH mode and we provide our own `SculptAttribute` structs for the API to fill in. Each new layer will invalidate the `CustomData` block offsets in the prior one, leading to memory corruption.

Whether faces are hidden and face sets are orthogonal concepts, but
currently sculpt mode stores them together in the face set array.
This means that if anything is hidden, there must be face sets,
and if there are face sets, we have to keep track of what is hidden.
In other words, it adds a bunch of redundant work and state tracking.
On the user level it's nice that face sets and hiding are consistent,
but we don't need to store them together to accomplish that.
This commit uses the `".hide_poly"` attribute from rB2480b55f216c to
read and change hiding in sculpt mode. Face sets don't need to be
negative anymore, and a bunch of "face set <-> hide status" conversion
can be removed. Plus some other benefits:
- We don't need to allocate either array quite as much.
- The hide status can be read from 1/4 the memory as face sets.
- Updates when entering or exiting sculpt mode can be removed.
- More opportunities for early-outs when nothing is hidden.
- Separating concerns makes sculpt code more obvious.
- It will be easier to convert face sets into a generic int attribute.

corresponding data layers and using their values for computations.
Avoiding that should increase performance in many operations that
would otherwise have to read, write, or propagate these values.
It also means decreased memory usage-- not just for sculpt mode
but for any mesh that was in sculpt mode. Previously the mask, face set,
and hide status layers were *always* allocated by sculpt mode.
Here are a few basic tests when masking and face sets are not used:
| Test | Before | After |
| Subsurf Modifier | 148 ms | 126 ms |
| Sculpt Overlay Extraction | 24 ms every redraw | 0 ms |
| Memory usage | 252 MB | 236 MB |
I wouldn't expect any difference when they are used though.
The code changes are mostly just making sculpt features safe for when
the layers aren't stored, and some changes to the conversion to and
from the hide layers. Use of the ".hide_poly" attribute replaces testing
whether face sets are negative in many places.

Follows existing naming for the most part, also use "num" as a suffix
in some instances (following our naming conventions).

For copy-on-write, we want to share attribute arrays between meshes
where possible. Mutable pointers like `Mesh.mvert` make that difficult
by making ownership vague. They also make code more complex by adding
redundancy.
The simplest solution is just removing them and retrieving layers from
`CustomData` as needed. Similar changes have already been applied to
curves and point clouds (e9f82d3dc7ee, 410a6efb747f). Removing use of
the pointers generally makes code more obvious and more reusable.
Mesh data is now accessed with a C++ API (`Mesh::edges()` or
`Mesh::edges_for_write()`), and a C API (`BKE_mesh_edges(mesh)`).
The CoW changes this commit makes possible are described in T95845
and T95842, and started in D14139 and D14140. The change also simplifies
the ongoing mesh struct-of-array refactors from T95965.
**RNA/Python Access Performance**
Theoretically, accessing mesh elements with the RNA API may become
slower, since the layer needs to be found on every random access.
However, overhead is already high enough that this doesn't make a
noticible differenc, and performance is actually improved in some
cases. Random access can be up to 10% faster, but other situations
might be a bit slower. Generally using `foreach_get/set` are the best
way to improve performance. See the differential revision for more
discussion about Python performance.
Cycles has been updated to use raw pointers and the internal Blender
mesh types, mostly because there is no sense in having this overhead
when it's already compiled with Blender. In my tests this roughly
halves the Cycles mesh creation time (0.19s to 0.10s for a 1 million
face grid).

This commit moves the hide status of mesh vertices, edges, and faces
from the `ME_FLAG` to optional generic boolean attributes. Storing this
data as generic attributes can significantly simplify and improve code,
as described in T95965.
The attributes are called `.hide_vert`, `.hide_edge`, and `.hide_poly`,
using the attribute name semantics discussed in T97452. The `.` prefix
means they are "UI attributes", so they still contain original data
edited by users, but they aren't meant to be accessed procedurally by
the user in arbitrary situations. They are also be hidden in the
spreadsheet and the attribute list by default,
Until 4.0, the attributes are still written to and read from the mesh
in the old way, so neither forward nor backward compatibility are
affected. This means memory requirements will be increased by one byte
per element when the hide status is used. When the flags are removed
completely, requirements will decrease when hiding is unused.
Further notes:
* Some code can be further simplified to skip some processing when the
hide attributes don't exist.
* The data is still stored in flags for `BMesh`, necessitating some
complexity in the conversion to and from `Mesh`.
* Access to the "hide" property of mesh elements in RNA is slower.
The separate boolean arrays should be used where possible.

This is a port of sculpt-dev's `SculptVertRef` refactor
(note that `SculptVertRef was renamed to PBVHVertRef`)
to master. `PBVHVertRef` is a structure that abstracts
the concept of a vertex in the sculpt code; it's simply
an `intptr_t` wrapped in a struct.
For `PBVH_FACES` and `PBVH_GRIDS` this struct stores a
vertex index, but for `BMesh` it stores a direct pointer
to a BMVert. The intptr_t is wrapped in a struct to prevent
the accidental usage of it as an index.
There are many reasons to do this:
* Right now `BMesh` verts are not logical sculpt verts;
to use the sculpt API they must first be converted to indices.
This requires a lot of indirect lookups into tables, leading to performance
loss. It has also led to greater code complexity and duplication.
* Having an abstract vertex type makes it feasible to have one unified
temporary attribute API for all three PBVH modes, which in turn
made it rather trivial to port sculpt brushes to DynTopo in
sculpt-dev (e.g. the layer brush, draw sharp, the smooth brushes,
the paint brushes, etc). This attribute API will be in a future patch.
* We need to do this anyway for the eventual move to C++.

In some cases it is mandatory to be able to hide parts of the mesh
in order to paint certain areas. The Mask modifier doesn't work in
weight paint, and edit mode hiding requires using selection, which
is not always convenient.
This makes the weight and vertex paint modes always respect edit mode
hiding like sculpt mode. The change in behavior affects drawing and
building paint PBVH. Thus it affects brushes, but not menu operators
like Smooth or Normalize.
In addition, this makes the Alt-H shortcut available even without
any selection enabled, and implements Hide for vertex selection.

This makes it much clearer what data is supposed to be modified

`BKE_paint_brush_for_read` function isn't great design, but it

Also pass pointers explicitly to `sample_curves_3d_brush` rather

This patch contains an initial pixel extractor for PBVH and an initial paint brush implementation.
PBVH is an accelleration structure blender uses internally to speed up 3d painting operations.
At this moment it is extensively used by sculpt, vertex painting and weight painting.
For the 3d texturing brush we will be using the PBVH for texture painting.
Currently PBVH is organized to work on geometry (vertices, polygons and triangles).
For texture painting this should be extended it to use pixels.
{F12995467}
Screen recording has been done on a Mac Mini with a 6 core 3.3 GHZ Intel processor.
# Scope
This patch only contains an extending uv seams to fix uv seams. This is not actually we want, but was easy to add
to make the brush usable.
Pixels are places in the PBVH_Leaf nodes. We want to introduce a special node for pixels, but that will be done
in a separate patch to keep the code review small. This reduces the painting performance when using
low and medium poly assets.
In workbench textures aren't forced to be shown. For now use Material/Rendered view.
# Rasterization process
The rasterization process will generate the pixel information for a leaf node. In the future those
leaf nodes will be split up into multiple leaf nodes to increase the performance when there
isn't enough geometry. For this patch this was left out of scope.
In order to do so every polygon should be uniquely assigned to a leaf node.
For each leaf node
for each polygon
If polygon not assigned
assign polygon to node.
Polygons are to complicated to be used directly we have to split the polygons into triangles.
For each leaf node
for each polygon
extract triangles from polygon.
The list of triangles can be stored inside the leaf node. The list of polygons aren't needed anymore.
Each triangle has:
poly_index.
vert_indices
delta barycentric coordinate between x steps.
Each triangle is rasterized in rows. Sequential pixels (in uv space) are stored in a single structure.
image position
barycentric coordinate of the first pixel
number of pixels
triangle index inside the leaf node.
During the performed experiments we used a fairly simple rasterization process by
finding the UV bounds of an triangle and calculate the barycentric coordinates per
pixel inside the bounds. Even for complex models and huge images this process is
normally finished within 0.5 second. It could be that we want to change this algorithm
to reduce hickups when nodes are initialized during a stroke.

This patch adds color attributes to TexPaintSlot. This allows an easier selection
when painting color attributes.
Previously when selecting a paint tool the user had to start a stroke, before the
UI reflected the correct TexPaintSlot. Now when switching the slot the active
tool is checked and immediate the UI is drawn correctly.
In the future the canvas selector will also be used to select an image or image texture node
to paint on. Basic implementation has already been done inside this patch.
A limitation of this patch is that is isn't possible anymore to rename images directly from
the selection panel. This is currently allowed in master. But as CustomDataLayers
aren't ID fields and not owned by the material supporting this wouldn't be easy.

color attribute system.
This commit removes sculpt colors from experimental
status and unifies it with vertex colors. It
introduces the concept of "color attributes", which
are any attributes that represents colors. Color
attributes can be represented with byte or floating-point
numbers and can be stored in either vertices or
face corners.
Color attributes share a common namespace
(so you can no longer have a floating-point
sculpt color attribute and a byte vertex color
attribute with the same name).

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.
