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.

When the 'threshold' is not used in the type we are comparing, just hide
it. This was obvious for some types (e.g. Materials), but maybe not so
on others (e.g. Polygon Sides) and potentionally confusing.

This broke with {rB20fac2eca723} (which landed in 2.63), so long
standing bug.
Convention for paint modes is:
- when no paint mask is active, `Frame Selected` will focus the last
stroke
- when paint mask is active, `Frame Selected` will focus the selected
mask faces
To check the right vert coords we have to offset with `mp->loopstart`.

When adding certain customdata layers (namely UVs, vertex colors and
sculpt vertex colors), the user does not get notified the specific limit
has been hit (blender just silently does nothing).
Now inform the user [decided to not do this in poll() since it could get
messy once operators are extended to operate on all selected objects, so
left this as a visible error in execute() -- or from python].

Currently, the knife does not use right click cancel.
It causes users to accidentally delete entire cuts easily.
This patch allows right click cancel when no cuts have been made.
This makes it consistent with other tools when switching between them.

Knife angle measurements were mis-aligned if a cut point was in space.
Specifically, the arc drawing would not match with the cut line.
Fixed by removing a correction for kcd->prev.cage.
This correction was originally added for panning with measurements to work.
In hindsight it is not needed and only introduces issues like this.

There is still some cleanup such as using `copy_v2_v2_int()`,

Expose a key-map preference "Fallback Tool (RMB)",
disabled by default.
The right mouse button uses the fallback tool
(currently visible selection tool in the toolbar),
instead of always tweaking.
When any selection tool is active, right mouse always tweaks.
To enable fallback selection on RMB, set the "Right Mouse Select Action"
to "Selection Tool".
Internal changes:
- Add fall-back key-maps, separate key-maps needed for when the tool is
run as a fall-back. This is needed so RMB-select can support fall-back
tools, so left-mouse can be used when it's the active tool and RMB
can be used as a fall-back action when another tool is active.
- Add options field to tools so tools without gizmos can enable the
full-back tool keymap.
- Support multiple key-maps for keymap handlers.
- Fall-back keymaps now co-exist with the tool-keymaps.
So both keymaps may be active at once - using different mouse buttons.
When gizmos are in use, a highlighted gizmo prioritizes the
tool-keymap over the fall-back keymap.
