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).

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.

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++.

Currently, there are two attribute API. The first, defined in `BKE_attribute.h` is
accessible from RNA and C code. The second is implemented with `GeometryComponent`
and is only accessible in C++ code. The second is widely used, but only being
accessible through the `GeometrySet` API makes it awkward to use, and even impossible
for types that don't correspond directly to a geometry component like `CurvesGeometry`.
This patch adds a new attribute API, designed to replace the `GeometryComponent`
attribute API now, and to eventually replace or be the basis of the other one.
The basic idea is that there is an `AttributeAccessor` class that allows code to
interact with a set of attributes owned by some geometry. The accessor itself has
no ownership. `AttributeAccessor` is a simple type that can be passed around by
value. That makes it easy to return it from functions and to store it in containers.
For const-correctness, there is also a `MutableAttributeAccessor` that allows
changing individual and can add or remove attributes.
Currently, `AttributeAccessor` is composed of two pointers. The first is a pointer
to the owner of the attribute data. The second is a pointer to a struct with
function pointers, that is similar to a virtual function table. The functions
know how to access attributes on the owner.
The actual attribute access for geometries is still implemented with the `AttributeProvider`
pattern, which makes it easy to support different sources of attributes on a
geometry and simplifies dealing with built-in attributes.
There are different ways to get an attribute accessor for a geometry:
* `GeometryComponent.attributes()`
* `CurvesGeometry.attributes()`
* `bke::mesh_attributes(const Mesh &)`
* `bke::pointcloud_attributes(const PointCloud &)`
All of these also have a `_for_write` variant that returns a `MutabelAttributeAccessor`.

It's potentially possible that the attribute duplication could fail,
for whetever reason. There is no great reason not to be safe in
this high-level code.
|
|
Use a name argument, for the same reasons as 6eea5f70e3b79e3c668.
Also reuse the layer and unique name creation in `BKE_id_attribute_new`
instead of reimplementing it. Also include a few miscellaneous cleanups
like using const variables and `std::string`.
|

The internal function relies on `CustomData_copy_data_layer` currently,
which doesn't work for BMesh. Support could be added as a special case
for BMesh, but in the meantime avoid bugs by just changing the poll.

Sculpt undo now detects if an attribute layer has
changed type/domain and unconverts it back. This
is a temporary workaround to a more fundamental
bug in the undo system.
Memfile undo assumes it can always rebuild the
application state from the prior undo step,
which isn't true with incremental undo systems.
The correct fix is to push an extra undo step prior
to running an operator if an incremental undo system
is active and the operator is using memfile undo.

* Support writing to byte color attributes in Store Named Attribute node.
* Support converting to/from byte color in attribute conversion operator.
* Support propagating byte color attributes.
* Add all the implicit conversions from byte colors to the other types.

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).
Note: this commit does not include vertex paint mode,
which is a separate patch, see:

Editing of generic attributes on the original objects in edit modes is
still very limited. However, when applying a geometry nodes modifier
that generates new attributes. These attributes will show up in the
Attributes panel.
Currently, our exporters are not capable of exporting generic attributes.
Therefore, for the time being, a work around is to apply geometry nodes
and then convert a generic attribute to a task specific attribute like a
uv map, vertex group or vertex color layer. Once more parts of Blender
support generic attributes, this will become less important.
Currently, only meshes are supported by the operator. However, it would
be relatively easy to extend it to other geometry types.

This was reported in T90026 for attributes, but was also true for:
- UVMaps
- Vertex Colors
- Sculpt Vertex Colors
- Face Maps

with), now make this consistent across all mentioned types.
