In some situations, layers were filled with their default value
when converting from Mesh to BMesh (entering edit mode, for example).
This was caused by the recently added "copy mesh to bmesh" or "merge
mesh to bmesh" custom data functions creating a difference custom
data format than was used for the copying functions used later.
`CustomData_to_bmesh_block` is not robust enough to handle simple
differences in layout between the layout of the source and result
CustomData layers, because it relies on the order of the types and
the number of layers within each type.
As a fix, make the "mesh to bmesh" special case more explicit in
the conversion functions. This makes the difference in the API
smaller, which is a nice improvement anwyay.

This is the conventional way of dealing with unused arguments in C++,
since it works on all compilers.

Due to increased usage of typed arrays in C++ and name/offset based
access for BMesh, these are unlikely to be used again, and haven't been
used in many years.

First, there can only be one crease layer, so remove the "default name",
since apparently that's how CustomData tests for that
(see `CustomData_layertype_is_singleton`).
Second, always propagate crease data because it can be used in arbitrary
situations by geometry nodes. That also has to be done for all generic
attribute layers.

Using the attribute name semantics from T97452, this patch moves the
selection status of mesh elements from the `SELECT` of vertices, and
edges, and the `ME_FACE_SEL` of faces to generic boolean attribute
Storing this data as generic attributes can significantly simplify and
improve code, as described in T95965.
The attributes are called `.select_vert`, `.select_edge`, and
`.select_poly`. 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.
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 selection is used. When the flags are removed
completely, requirements will decrease.
Further notes:
* The `MVert` flag is empty at runtime now, so it can be ignored.
* `BMesh` is unchanged, otherwise the change would be much larger.
* Many tests have slightly different results, since the selection
attribute uses more generic propagation. Previously you couldn't
really rely on edit mode selections being propagated procedurally.
Now it mostly works as expected.

This is very similar to D14077. There are two differences though.
First is that vertex creases are already stored in a separate layer,
and second is that we can now completely remove use of `Mesh.cd_flag`,
since that information is now inherent to whether the layers exist.
There are two functional differences here:
* Operators are used to add and remove layers instead of a property.
* The "crease" attribute can be created and removed by geometry nodes.
The second change should make various geometry nodes slightly faster,
since the "crease" attribute was always processed before. Creases are
now interpolated generically in the CustomData API too, which should
help maintain the values across edits better.
Meshes get an `edge_creases` RNA property like the existing vertex
property, to provide more efficient access to the data in Cycles.
One test failure is expected, where different rounding between float
the old char storage means that 5 additional points are scattered in
a geometry nodes test.

Similar to the other refactors from T95965, this commit moves sculpt
face sets to use a generic integer attribute named `".sculpt_face_set"`.
This makes face sets accessible in the Python API.
The attribute is not visible in the attributes list or the spreadsheet
because it is meant for internal use, though that could be an option
in the future along with other similar attributes. Currently the change
is small, but in the future this could simplify code by allowing use
of more generic attribute APIs.

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.

We need to use the custom data copy function that skips mesh-only
attributes like the hide status attributes, the generic material index
attribute, etc. Otherwise the BMesh has those attributes which
conflict with their builtin counterparts.

When resizing mesh and curves attribute storage, avoid initializing the
new memory for basic types. Also, avoid skipping "no free" layers; all
layers should be reallocated to the new size since they may be accessed.
The semantics introduced in 25237d2625078c6d1 are essential for this
change, because otherwise we don't have a way to construct non-trivial
types in the new memory.
In a basic test of the extrude node, I observed a performance
improvement of about 30%, from 55ms to 42ms.

As described in T95966, the goal is to move to a "struct of arrays"
approach rather than gathering an arbitrary set of data in hard-coded
structs. This has performance benefits, but also code complexity
benefits (this patch removes plenty of code, though the boilerplate
for the new operators outweighs that here).
To mirror the internal change, the options for storing mesh bevel
weights are converted into operators that add or remove the layer,
like for some other layers.
The most complex change is to the solidify modifier, where bevel
weights had special handling. Other than that, most changes are
removing clearing of the weights, boilerplate for the add/remove
operators, and removing the manual transfer of bevel weights
in bmesh - mesh conversion.
Eventually bevel weights can become a fully generic attribute,
but for now this patch aims to avoid most functional changes.
Bevel weights are still written and read from the mesh in the old way,
so neither forward nor backward compatibility are affected. As described
in T95965, writing in the old format will be done until 4.0.

- Remove "take ownership" argument which was confusing and always true
- The argument made ownership very confusing
- Better to avoid boolean arguments that switch a function's purpose
- Remove "mask" argument which was basically wrong and not used properly
- "EVERYTHING" was used because developers are wary of removing data
- Instead use `CD_MASK_MESH` for its purpose of original mesh data
- Remove use of shallow copied temporary mesh, which is unnecessary now
- Split shape key processing into separate functions and use C++ types
- Copy fields explicitly rather than using memcpy for the whole struct
- Use higher level functions and avoid redundant code
- The whole idea is pretty simple and can be built from standard logic
- Adjust `CustomData` logic to be consistent with "assign" expectations
- Clear the layer data from the source, and moves the anonymous ID

This patch consists of two related fixes. The first is a simple fix for
forward compatibility, setting the Mesh.dvert pointer when writing a
file allows old Blender versions to read vertex groups from newly saved
files.
The second part is a bit uglier and more complex. Normally mesh vertex
group data is read in mesh_blend_read_data, for backward compatibility
with very old files. However, after 05952aa94d33eeb50 the mesh.dvert
pointer was not set, so the data was not read. Reading vertex group
layers when reading custom data is enough to fix that issue. We need to
read the data from *both* places, but BKE_defvert_blend_read cannot run
twice without memory leaks, so first try reading from custom data, then
read the pointer if that fails.

The "set default" callback doesn't need to be defined since it falls
back to clearing the memory, but since "construct" is optional, it
needs to be defined. Mistake in 25237d2625078c6d1.

Note: does not fix the limit in PBVH draw which is

This patch moves material indices from the mesh `MPoly` struct to a
generic integer attribute. The builtin material index was already
exposed in geometry nodes, but this makes it a "proper" attribute
accessible with Python and visible in the "Attributes" panel.
The goals of the refactor are code simplification and memory and
performance improvements, mainly because the attribute doesn't have
to be stored and processed if there are no materials. However, until
4.0, material indices will still be read and written in the old
format, meaning there may be a temporary increase in memory usage.
Further notes:
* Completely removing the `MPoly.mat_nr` after 4.0 may require
changes to DNA or introducing a new `MPoly` type.
* Geometry nodes regression tests didn't look at material indices,
so the change reveals a bug in the realize instances node that I fixed.
* Access to material indices from the RNA `MeshPolygon` type is slower
with this patch. The `material_index` attribute can be used instead.
* Cycles is changed to read from the attribute instead.
* BMesh isn't changed in this patch. Theoretically it could be though,
to save 2 bytes per face when less than two materials are used.
* Eventually we could use a 16 bit integer attribute type instead.

When allocating new `CustomData` layers, often we do redundant
initialization of arrays. For example, it's common that values are
allocated, set to their default value, and then set to some other
value. This is wasteful, and it negates the benefits of optimizations
to the allocator like D15082. There are two reasons for this. The
first is array-of-structs storage that makes it annoying to initialize
values manually, and the second is confusing options in the Custom Data
API. This patch addresses the latter.
The `CustomData` "alloc type" options are rearranged. Now, besides
the options that use existing layers, there are two remaining:
* `CD_SET_DEFAULT` sets the default value.
* Usually zeroes, but for colors this is white (how it was before).
* Should be used when you add the layer but don't set all values.
* `CD_CONSTRUCT` refers to the "default construct" C++ term.
* Only necessary or defined for non-trivial types like vertex groups.
* Doesn't do anything for trivial types like `int` or `float3`.
* Should be used every other time, when all values will be set.
The attribute API's `AttributeInit` types are updated as well.
To update code, replace `CD_CALLOC` with `CD_SET_DEFAULT` and
`CD_DEFAULT` with `CD_CONSTRUCT`. This doesn't cause any functional
changes yet. Follow-up commits will change to avoid initializing
new layers where the correctness is clear.

The function does modify the object since it changes the name of a layer
it owns. Ideally this wouldn't be possible, but raw pointers don't have
ownership semantics so this is a common problem with CustomData.

We don't convert to the old mesh format when writing undo steps to
avoid overhead. So we can't skip writing the hide attributes then.

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.

It's helpful to make the separation of legacy data formats explicit,
because it declutters actively changed code and makes it clear which
areas do not follow Blender's current design. In this case I separated
the `MFace`/"tessface" conversion code into a separate blenkernel
.cc file and header. This also makes refactoring to remove these
functions simpler because they're easier to find.
In the future, conversions to the `MLoopUV` type and `MVert`
can be implemented here for the same reasons (see T95965).

Previously the function had a fair amount of ugly boilerplate to avoid
allocating the temporary layers array, and then free it if necessary.
`blender::Vector` solves that problem more elegantly. Passing a span,
using references in a few cases, and using a switch statement also make
the functions simpler.
This refactoring is in preparation for D14583 and D14685.
