Similar to cf69652618fefcd22b2cde9a2.

Regression from rB1a7757b0bc69/rBa0acb9bd0cc0. Special handling
(averaging) of weights on merged center vertices also requires to be
'reversed' when new correct merge order is used, compared to previous
behavior.

Currently there is a "calc_face_normal" argument to mesh to bmesh
conversion, but vertex normals had always implicitly inherited whatever
dirty state the mesh input's vertex normals were in. Probably they were
most often assumed to not be dirty, but this was never really correct in
the general case.
Ever since the refactor to move vertex normals out of mesh vertices,
cfa53e0fbeed7178c7, the copying logic has been explicit: copy the
normals when they are not dirty. But it turns out that more control is
needed, and sometimes normals should be calculated for the resulting
BMesh.
This commit adds an option to the conversion to calculate vertex
normals, true by default. In almost all places except the decimate
and edge split modifiers, I just copied the value of the
"calc_face_normals" argument.

The vertex and face normals from the input mesh
were used to calculate the normals on the result,
which could cause a crash because the result should
be about twice as large.
Also remove an unnecessary dirty tag, since it is handled
automatically when creating a new mesh or in the case
of the mirror modifier, when calculating the new custom
face corner normals.

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.

- 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.

The mirror modifiers merge option caused unnecessary re-ordering
to the vertex array with original vertices merging into their copies.
While this wasn't an error, it meant creating a 1:1 mapping from input
vertices to their final output wasn't reliable (when looping over
vertices first to last) as is done in
BKE_editmesh_vert_coords_when_deformed.
As merging in either direction is supported, keep the source meshes
vertices in-order since it allows the vertex coordinates to be extracted.
NOTE: Since this change introduce issues for some cases (e.g. bound
modifiers like SurfaceDeform), this change is only applied to newly
created modifiers, existing ones will still use the old incorrect merge
behavior.

bound SurfaceDeform.
Revert "Fix T91444: Edge Loop Preview fails with two Mirror Modifiers"
This reverts commit 1a7757b0bc6945ab7d3b281f3e0dd7130bcf80f0.
Caused issue reported in T93321, boiling down to the fact that other
operations or modifiers (like the SurfaceDeform one) rely on the order
of the vertices in the mesh to remain consistent.
Changing this in a modifier would mean those operations need to be
reset/re-created (e.g. rebound for the SurfaceDeform case), which is not
doable in `do_version` code.

Remove the 'only_face_normals' argument.
- BKE_mesh_calc_normals_poly for polygon normals.
- BKE_mesh_calc_normals_poly_and_vertex for poly and vertex normals.
Order arguments logically:
- Pair array and length arguments.
- Position normal array arguments (to be filled) last.

Bisect-plane calculation needed to take non-uniform scale into account.
|
|
The `bisect_distance` in the mirror modifier was hard-coded to `0.001`.
This would result in some unexpected behavior like vertices close
to the mirror plane being deleted or merged.
The fix now adds a parameter to the mirror modifier to expose the
bisect distance to the user. The default is set to the previous
hard-coded value to not "change" previous files.

Use the BMesh symmetrize operator instead of using the modifier code.
While we could support shape-keys with the existing code used by the
mirror modifier, we'd need to add code-paths for evaluated mesh & bmesh
conversion to handle shape-keys differently just for this one case,
since we want to avoid copying & processing shape-keys layers for
evaluated meshes in general.

Also order sizeof(..) first to promote other values to size_t.

Was flipping around the 0-1 range, now (optionally) flip around each tile.
Also added this option for BMesh bmo_mirror.

- Use 'BKE_object_defgroup' prefix for object functions.
- Rename 'defvert_verify_index' to 'defvert_ensure_index'
since this adds the group if it isn't found.
