For node groups there is no good default preview generation.
Nevertheless, t would be useful to generate a preview image for a
node group by rendering an object in some cases.
This commit adds a new operator that allows updating the preview
image for the active asset by rendering the active object.
Note, the operator can also be used for other asset types, not just
node groups.
The operator can be found in a menu right below the refresh-preview
button. Currently it is the only operator in that menu. In the future,
more operators to create previews may be added.

During sprite fright loading of complex scenes would spend a long time in remapping ID's
The remapping process is done on a per ID instance that resulted in a very time consuming
process that goes over every possible ID reference to find out if it needs to be updated.
If there are N of references to ID blocks and there are M ID blocks that needed to be remapped
it would take N*M checks. These checks are scattered around the place and memory.
Each reference would only be updated at most once, but most of the time no update is needed at all.
Idea: By grouping the changes together will reduce the number of checks resulting in improved performance.
This would only require N checks. Additional benefits is improved data locality as data is only loaded once
in the L2 cache.
It has be implemented for the resyncing process and UI editors.
On an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700 CPU @ 3.40GHz 16Gig the resyncing process went
from 170 seconds to 145 seconds (during hotspot recording).
After this patch has been applied we could add similar approach
to references (references between data blocks) and functionality (tagged deletion).
In my understanding this could reduce the resyncing process to less than a second.
Opening the village production file between 10 and 20 seconds.

The evaluated mesh is a result of evaluated modifiers, and referencing
other evaluated IDs such as materials.
It can not be stored in the EditMesh structure which is intended to be
re-used by many areas. Such sharing was causing ownership errors causing
bugs like
T93855: Cycles crash with edit mode and simultaneous viewport and final render
The proposed solution is to store the evaluated edit mesh and its cage in
the object's runtime field. The motivation goes as following:
- It allows to avoid ownership problems like the ones in the linked report.
- Object level is chosen over mesh level is because the evaluated mesh
is affected by modifiers, which are on the object level.
This patch allows to have modifier stack of an object which shares mesh with
an object which is in edit mode to be properly taken into account (before
the change the modifier stack from the active object will be used for all
objects which share the mesh).
There is a change in the way how copy-on-write is handled in the edit mode to
allow proper state update when changing active scene (or having two windows
with different scenes). Previously, the copt-on-write would have been ignored
by skipping tagging CoW component. Now it is ignored from within the CoW
operation callback. This allows to update edit pointers for objects which are
not from the current depsgraph and where the edit_mesh was never assigned in
the case when the depsgraph was evaluated prior the active depsgraph.
There is no user level changes changes expected with the CoW handling changes:
should not affect on neither performance, nor memory consumption.
Tested scenarios:
- Various modifiers configurations of objects sharing mesh and be part of the
same scene.
- Steps from the reports: T93855, T82952, T77359
This also fixes T76609, T72733 and perhaps other reports.

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.

Includes unwanted changes

This patch implements the vector types (i.e:`float2`) by making heavy
usage of templating. All vector functions are now outside of the vector
classes (inside the `blender::math` namespace) and are not vector size
dependent for the most part.
In the ongoing effort to make shaders less GL centric, we are aiming
to share more code between GLSL and C++ to avoid code duplication.
####Motivations:
- We are aiming to share UBO and SSBO structures between GLSL and C++.
This means we will use many of the existing vector types and others
we currently don't have (uintX, intX). All these variations were
asking for many more code duplication.
- Deduplicate existing code which is duplicated for each vector size.
- We also want to share small functions. Which means that vector
functions should be static and not in the class namespace.
- Reduce friction to use these types in new projects due to their
incompleteness.
- The current state of the `BLI_(float|double|mpq)(2|3|4).hh` is a
bit of a let down. Most clases are incomplete, out of sync with each
others with different codestyles, and some functions that should be
static are not (i.e: `float3::reflect()`).
####Upsides:
- Still support `.x, .y, .z, .w` for readability.
- Compact, readable and easilly extendable.
- All of the vector functions are available for all the vectors types
and can be restricted to certain types. Also template specialization
let us define exception for special class (like mpq).
- With optimization ON, the compiler unroll the loops and performance
is the same.
####Downsides:
- Might impact debugability. Though I would arge that the bugs are
rarelly caused by the vector class itself (since the operations are
quite trivial) but by the type conversions.
- Might impact compile time. I did not saw a significant impact since
the usage is not really widespread.
- Functions needs to be rewritten to support arbitrary vector length.
For instance, one can't call `len_squared_v3v3` in
`math::length_squared()` and call it a day.
- Type cast does not work with the template version of the `math::`
vector functions. Meaning you need to manually cast `float *` and
`(float *)[3]` to `float3` for the function calls.
i.e: `math::distance_squared(float3(nearest.co), positions[i]);`
- Some parts might loose in readability:
`float3::dot(v1.normalized(), v2.normalized())`
becoming
`math::dot(math::normalize(v1), math::normalize(v2))`
But I propose, when appropriate, to use
`using namespace blender::math;` on function local or file scope to
increase readability.
`dot(normalize(v1), normalize(v2))`
####Consideration:
- Include back `.length()` method. It is quite handy and is more C++
oriented.
- I considered the GLM library as a candidate for replacement. It felt
like too much for what we need and would be difficult to extend / modify
to our needs.
- I used Macros to reduce code in operators declaration and potential
copy paste bugs. This could reduce debugability and could be reverted.
- This touches `delaunay_2d.cc` and the intersection code. I would like
to know @howardt opinion on the matter.
- The `noexcept` on the copy constructor of `mpq(2|3)` is being removed.
But according to @JacquesLucke it is not a real problem for now.
I would like to give a huge thanks to @JacquesLucke who helped during this
and pushed me to reduce the duplication further.

Basically, this fixes disappearing previews when editing asset metadata
or performing undo/redo actions.
The preview generation in a background job will eventually modify ID
data, but the undo push was done prior to that. So obviously, an undo
then would mean the preview is lost.
This patch makes it so undo/redo will regenerate the preview, if the preview
rendering was invoked but not finished in the undone/redone state.
The preview flag PRV_UNFINISHED wasn't entirely what we needed. So I had to
change it to a slightly different flag, with different semantics.

This follows three main targets:
* Make creation of new tree UIs easy.
* Groundwork to generalize tree UIs (so e.g. Outliner, animation
channels, asset catalogs and spreadsheet data-sets don't have to
re-implement basic tree UI code) or even other data-view UIs.
* Better separate data and UI state. E.g. with this, tree-item selection
or the open/collapsed state can be stored on the UI level, rather than
in data. (Asset Catalogs need this, storing UI state info in them is
not an option.)
In addition, the design should be well testable and could even be
exposed to Python.
Note that things will likely change in master still. E.g. the actually
resulting UI isn't very nice visually yet.

from outside the File Browser. But as explained in T88184, it does a lot

* Operator to reload the asset list.
* New `bpy.types.AssetHandle.get_full_library_path()` function, which
gets the full path of the asset via the asset-list.
* Changes to preview loading to prevent the preview loading job to run
eternally for asset views. File Browsers have this issue too, but

This introduces a context path to the spreadsheet editor, which contains
information about what data is shown in the spreadsheet. The context
path (breadcrumbs) can reference a specific node in a node group
hierarchy. During object evaluation, the geometry nodes modifier checks
what data is currently requested by visible spreadsheets and stores
the corresponding geometry sets separately for later access.
The context path can be updated by the user explicitely, by clicking
on the new icon in the header of nodes. Under some circumstances,
the context path is updated automatically based on Blender's context.
This patch also consolidates the "Node" and "Final" object evaluation
mode to just "Evaluated". Based on the current context path, either
the final geometry set of an object will be displayed, or the data at
a specific node.
The new preview icon in geometry nodes now behaves more like
a toggle. It can be clicked again to clear the context path in an
open spreadsheet editor.
Previously, only an object could be pinned in the spreadsheet editor.
Now it is possible to pin the entire context path. That allows two
different spreadsheets to display geometry data from two different
nodes.
The breadcrumbs in the spreadsheet header can be collapsed by
clicking on the arrow icons. It's not ideal but works well for now.
This might be changed again, if we get a data set region on the left.
