Was missing a call to SCULPT_automasking_node_update.

Two new normal-based automasking modes.
The first mode, "brush", compares vertex normals with the initial
normal at the beginning of the brush stroke.
The second, "view", compares vertex normals with the view normal.
If "occlusion" is on then rays will be shot from each vertex to test
if it is occluded by other geometry (note: this can be very slow).\
Only geometry inside the sculpt mesh is considered.
Each mode has an associated angular limit and a falloff.

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.

Mask and color brushes were using the existing PBVH vertex "update tag"
to mark their modifications. This was mostly unnecessary, and causes
unnecessary calculation of normals. It also caused errors though,
because they didn't tag the corresponding PBVH node for normal
recalculation, causing problems on the borders of nodes, since one
node might accumulate into another's vertex normals, but the other
node wouldn't also accumulate and normalize the normals.
The solution is to only use the update tag for tagging deformed
vertices that need recalculated normals. Everything else is handled at
the PBVH node level (which was already the case, but it wasn't clear).
The update tag was also used for undo to tag the nodes corresponding to
changed vertices. This was wrong though, because normals and visibility
would also be recalculated for just color or mask undo steps. Instead,
just use local arrays to map from vertices to nodes.

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++.

You can now push multiple sculpt undo nodes
of different types. This is necassary to handle
paint tools that have gravity enabled.

This is part of the project of converting `MVert` into `float3`.
(more details in T93602), The pbvh update flag is removed and
replaced with a bitmap stored in the PBVH structure. This
patch is similar to D13878. This is mainly setup for an eventual
performance improvement by removing the extra data from
mesh vertices, but if it's consistent with testing in the other patch
doing the same thing for another "temp tag", then it may actually
increase the speed of sculpt code slightly, since less memory needs
to be loaded when checking/changing the flags.

This brush fixes the random spikes that
occasionally happen in multires models.
These spikes can be nearly impossible to
fix manually and can make working with
multires a nightmare.

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.

This better differentiates sculpt brush types with brush data-blocks,
since the same sculpt brush type may be used for many brushes.
