Rewrite PBVH draw to allocate attributes into individual VBOs.
The old system tried to create a single VBO that could feed
every open viewport. This required uploading every color and
UV attribute to the viewport whether needed or not, often exceeding
the VBO limit.
This new system creates one VBO per attribute. Each attribute layout is
given its own GPU batch which is cached inside the owning PBVH node.
Notes:
* This is a full C++ rewrite. The old code is still there; ripping it out
can happen later.
* PBVH nodes now have a collection of batches, PBVHBatches, that keeps
track of all the batches inside the node.
* Batches are built exclusively from a list of attributes.
* Each attribute has its own VBO.
* Overlays, workbench and EEVEE can all have different attribute
layouts, each of which will get its own batch.

This patch contains an initial set of nodes to access basic
mesh topology information, as explored in T100020.
The nodes allow six direct topology mappings for meshes:
- **Corner -> Face** The face a corner is in, the index in the face
- **Vertex -> Edge** Choose an edge attached to the vertex
- **Vertex -> Corner** Choose a corner attached to the vertex
- **Corner -> Edge** The next and previous edge at each face corner
- **Corner -> Vertex** The vertex associated with a corner
- **Corner -> Corner** Offset a corner index within a face
And two new topology mappings for curves:
- **Curve -> Points** Choose a point within a curve
- **Point -> Curve** The curve a point is in, the index in the curve
The idea is that some of the 16 possible mesh mappings are more
important, and that this is a useful set of nodes to start exploring
this area. For mappings with an arbitrary number of connections, we
must sort them and use an index to choose a single element, because
geometry nodes does not support list fields. Note that the sort
index has repeating behavior as it goes over the "Total" number of
connections, and negative sort indices choose from the end.
Currently which of the "start" elements is used is determined by the
field context, so the "Field at Index" and "Interpolate Domain" nodes
will be quite important. Also, currently the "Sort Index" inputs are
clamped to the number of connections.
One important feature that isn't implemented here is using the winding
order for the output elements. This can be a separate mode for some
of these nodes. It will be optional because of the performance impact.
There are several todos for separate commits after this:
- Rename "Control Point Neighbors" to be consistent with this naming
- Version away the "Vertex Neighbors" node which is fully redundant now
- Implement a special case for when no weights are used for performance
- De-duplicating some of the sorting logic between the nodes
- Improve performance and memory use of topology mappings
- Look into caching some of the mappings on meshes

Because they are friendlier to use in C++ code than the existing mesh
mapping API, these mappings from one domain to another were often
reimplemented in separate files. This commit moves some basic
implementations to a `mesh_topology` namespace in the existing
mesh mapping header file. These is plenty of room for performance
improvement here, particularly by not using an array of Vectors, but
that can come later.

This adds support for showing geometry passed to the Viewer in the 3d
viewport (instead of just in the spreadsheet). The "viewer geometry"
bypasses the group output. So it is not necessary to change the final
output of the node group to be able to see the intermediate geometry.
**Activation and deactivation of a viewer node**
* A viewer node is activated by clicking on it.
* Ctrl+shift+click on any node/socket connects it to the viewer and
makes it active.
* Ctrl+shift+click in empty space deactivates the active viewer.
* When the active viewer is not visible anymore (e.g. another object
is selected, or the current node group is exit), it is deactivated.
* Clicking on the icon in the header of the Viewer node toggles whether
its active or not.
**Pinning**
* The spreadsheet still allows pinning the active viewer as before.
When pinned, the spreadsheet still references the viewer node even
when it becomes inactive.
* The viewport does not support pinning at the moment. It always shows
the active viewer.
**Attribute**
* When a field is linked to the second input of the viewer node it is
displayed as an overlay in the viewport.
* When possible the correct domain for the attribute is determined
automatically. This does not work in all cases. It falls back to the
face corner domain on meshes and the point domain on curves. When
necessary, the domain can be picked manually.
* The spreadsheet now only shows the "Viewer" column for the domain
that is selected in the Viewer node.
* Instance attributes are visualized as a constant color per instance.
**Viewport Options**
* The attribute overlay opacity can be controlled with the "Viewer Node"
setting in the overlays popover.
* A viewport can be configured not to show intermediate viewer-geometry
by disabling the "Viewer Node" option in the "View" menu.
**Implementation Details**
* The "spreadsheet context path" was generalized to a "viewer path" that
is used in more places now.
* The viewer node itself determines the attribute domain, evaluates the
field and stores the result in a `.viewer` attribute.
* A new "viewer attribute' overlay displays the data from the `.viewer`
attribute.
* The ground truth for the active viewer node is stored in the workspace
now. Node editors, spreadsheets and viewports retrieve the active
viewer from there unless they are pinned.
* The depsgraph object iterator has a new "viewer path" setting. When set,
the viewed geometry of the corresponding object is part of the iterator
instead of the final evaluated geometry.
* To support the instance attribute overlay `DupliObject` was extended
to contain the information necessary for drawing the overlay.
* The ctrl+shift+click operator has been refactored so that it can make
existing links to viewers active again.
* The auto-domain-detection in the Viewer node works by checking the
"preferred domain" for every field input. If there is not exactly one
preferred domain, the fallback is used.
Known limitations:
* Loose edges of meshes don't have the attribute overlay. This could be
added separately if necessary.
* Some attributes are hard to visualize as a color directly. For example,
the values might have to be normalized or some should be drawn as arrays.
For now, we encourage users to build node groups that generate appropriate
viewer-geometry. We might include some of that functionality in future versions.
Support for displaying attribute values as text in the viewport is planned as well.
* There seems to be an issue with the attribute overlay for pointclouds on
nvidia gpus, to be investigated.

This patch adds 5th mode to Time offset modifier, which should allow
to create time segments list.
This will allow users to chain together multiple time ranges in 4 modes:
- Forward
- Backwards
- Pingpong
- Reverse Pingpong
It also comes with additional Repeat parameter which specifies number
of times particular segment should run.
The mechanic of it is transforming initial parameters into array of frames which
are mapped to existing cfra (current frame) value.
Prototype : https://jsfiddle.net/ha2sjw8p/3/
This is also closely aligned to community request:
https://blender.community/c/rightclickselect/Txhbbc/
This should allow creation of complex animations like dancing,
which consists of repeating loops and transitions to the next.
One important side effect of this is dramatically reduced
file sizes, as user no longer needs to copy paste keyframes.

Due to (optimization) checks in in `BKE_gpencil_prepare_eval_data` &
`BKE_gpencil_update_layer_transforms`, updates were skipped if animation
reached exact identity transforms.
Now check if the matrix has changed additionally to gain proper updates.
Unsure if this is the cheapest way to check for the animated state of
layer transforms tbh, but I see similar checks elsewhere.

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.

This patch replaces the existing transfer attribute node with three
nodes, "Sample Nearest Surface", "Sample Index", and "Sample Nearest".
This follows the design in T100010, allowing for new nodes like UV
sampling in the future. There is versioning so the new nodes replace
the old ones and are relinked as necessary.
The "Sample Nearest Surface" node is meant for the more complex
sampling algorithms that only work on meshes and interpolate
values inside of faces.
The new "Sample Index" just retrieves attributes from a geometry at
specific indices. It doesn't have implicit behavior like the old
transfer mode, which should make it more predictable. In order to not
change the behavior from existing files, the node has a has a "Clamp",
which is off by default for consistency with the "Field at Index" node.
The "Sample Nearest" node returns the index of the nearest element
on a geometry. It can be combined with the "Sample Index" node for
the same functionality as the old transfer node. This node can support
curves in the future.
Backwards compatibility is handled by versioning, but old versions can
not understand these nodes. The warning from 680fa8a523e0 should make
this explicit in 3.3 and earlier.

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.

The mesh's triangulation cache is often created for other operations
besides the drawing code, but during the mesh draw cache extraction
it is recalculated on every single time. It is simpler and faster to use
the existing MLoopTri array. It can also save memory if the cache
already exists by avoiding allocating a duplicate array. For a 4 million
face quad mesh, that is already 128 MB.
Also use face normals for mesh triangulation if they aren't dirty,
which should provide a general speedup when they're both necessary.
Recently 54182e4925de made this more reliable, since the triangulation
cache is invalidated properly when the mesh is deformed.

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.

Whenever animation on nodes was transfered to/from nodegroups (grouping/
ungrouping/separating) via BKE_animdata_transfer_by_basepath, it was
possible to create new nodes with the same name (in the formerly same
path -- see report for an example of this) and animation from the
original node was still performed on them. Issue went away after save/
reload.
In order to fully update the action, a depsgraph is now performed on the
action (similar to what is done when renaming for example).

From the nodes' description: "Retrieve the object that contains
the geometry nodes modifier currently being executed". This was
discussed in the most recent geometry nodes module meeting.
Because the node allows you to retrieve the position of the modifier
object, it has to add a depsgraph relation to object transform.
Expect that modifiers will be reevaluated when moving the object.
In the future, better static analysis of node trees could make this
check smarter.
