Motivation is to disambiguate on the naming level what the matrix
actually means. It is very easy to understand the meaning backwards,
especially since in Python the name goes the opposite way (it is
called `world_matrix` in the Python API).
It is important to disambiguate the naming without making developers
to look into the comment in the header file (which is also not super
clear either). Additionally, more clear naming facilitates the unit
verification (or, in this case, space validation) when reading an
expression.
This patch calls the matrix `object_to_world` which makes it clear
from the local code what is it exactly going on. This is only done
on DNA level, and a lot of local variables still follow the old
naming.
A DNA rename is setup in a way that there is no change on the file
level, so there should be no regressions at all.
The possibility is to add `_matrix` or `_mat` suffix to the name
to make it explicit that it is a matrix. Although, not sure if it
really helps the readability, or is it something redundant.

These functions are almost identical, the main difference being
BLI_join_dirfile didn't trim existing slashes when joining paths
however this isn't an important difference that warrants a separate

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.

When a change happens which invalidates view layers the syncing will be postponed until the first usage.
This will improve importing or adding many objects in a single operation/script.
`BKE_view_layer_need_resync_tag` is used to tag the view layer to be out of sync. Before accessing
`BKE_view_layer_active_base_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_object_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_collection`
or `BKE_view_layer_object_bases` the caller should call `BKE_view_layer_synced_ensure`.
Having two functions ensures that partial syncing could be added as smaller patches in the future. Tagging a
view layer out of sync could be replaced with a partial sync. Eventually the number of full resyncs could be
reduced. After all tagging has been replaced with partial syncs the ensure_sync could be phased out.
This patch has been added to discuss the details and consequences of the current approach. For clarity
the call to BKE_view_layer_ensure_sync is placed close to the getters.
In the future this could be placed in more strategical places to reduce the number of calls or improve
performance. Finding those strategical places isn't that clear. When multiple operations are grouped
in a single script you might want to always check for resync.
Some areas found that can be improved. This list isn't complete.
These areas aren't addressed by this patch as these changes would be hard to detect to the reviewer.
The idea is to add changes to these areas as a separate patch. It might be that the initial commit would reduce
performance compared to master, but will be fixed by the additional patches.
**Object duplication**
During object duplication the syncing is temporarily disabled. With this patch this isn't useful as when disabled
the view_layer is accessed to locate bases. This can be improved by first locating the source bases, then duplicate
and sync and locate the new bases. Will be solved in a separate patch for clarity reasons ({D15886}).
**Object add**
`BKE_object_add` not only adds a new object, but also selects and activates the new base. This requires the
view_layer to be resynced. Some callers reverse the selection and activation (See `get_new_constraint_target`).
We should make the selection and activation optional. This would make it possible to add multiple objects
without having to resync per object.
**Postpone Activate Base**
Setting the basact is done in many locations. They follow a rule as after an action find the base and set
the basact. Finding the base could require a resync. The idea is to store in the view_layer the object which
base will be set in the basact during the next sync, reducing the times resyncing needs to happen.

We now import and apply custom normals using a similar strategy
to the STL importer. We store custom normal data for each loop
as we read each MPoly and then apply it to the mesh after
`BKE_mesh_calc_edges()` is called.
The new behavior is optional and may be disabled in the Collada import
UI. When disabled, we use the old behavior of only using normals
to determine whether or not to smooth shade an MPoly.
----
Patch as requested in {T49814}.
The Collada import UI now has an additional checkbox, similar to the glTF and FBX import UIs:
{F13428264}
Here is a test Collada file with a simple test cube with flipped custom normals:
{F13428260}
{F13428282}
And a sphere where the two halves are disconnected geometry, but has custom normals that make the halves appear to be connected:
{F13436363}
{F13436368}
I've tested it on a number of my own meshes, and the custom normals appear to be imported
correctly. I'm not too sure about how I've plumbed the option down, though, or whether this
is the most proper way to apply custom normals.

As described in T95966, the goal is to move to a "struct of arrays"
approach rather than gathering an arbitrary set of data in hard-coded
structs. This has performance benefits, but also code complexity
benefits (this patch removes plenty of code, though the boilerplate
for the new operators outweighs that here).
To mirror the internal change, the options for storing mesh bevel
weights are converted into operators that add or remove the layer,
like for some other layers.
The most complex change is to the solidify modifier, where bevel
weights had special handling. Other than that, most changes are
removing clearing of the weights, boilerplate for the add/remove
operators, and removing the manual transfer of bevel weights
in bmesh - mesh conversion.
Eventually bevel weights can become a fully generic attribute,
but for now this patch aims to avoid most functional changes.
Bevel weights are still written and read from the mesh in the old way,
so neither forward nor backward compatibility are affected. As described
in T95965, writing in the old format will be done until 4.0.

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).

This patch moves material indices from the mesh `MPoly` struct to a
generic integer attribute. The builtin material index was already
exposed in geometry nodes, but this makes it a "proper" attribute
accessible with Python and visible in the "Attributes" panel.
The goals of the refactor are code simplification and memory and
performance improvements, mainly because the attribute doesn't have
to be stored and processed if there are no materials. However, until
4.0, material indices will still be read and written in the old
format, meaning there may be a temporary increase in memory usage.
Further notes:
* Completely removing the `MPoly.mat_nr` after 4.0 may require
changes to DNA or introducing a new `MPoly` type.
* Geometry nodes regression tests didn't look at material indices,
so the change reveals a bug in the realize instances node that I fixed.
* Access to material indices from the RNA `MeshPolygon` type is slower
with this patch. The `material_index` attribute can be used instead.
* Cycles is changed to read from the attribute instead.
* BMesh isn't changed in this patch. Theoretically it could be though,
to save 2 bytes per face when less than two materials are used.
* Eventually we could use a 16 bit integer attribute type instead.

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.

NOTE: This is committed to the 3.3 branch as part of D15606, which we
decided should go to this release still (by Bastien, Dalai and me). That
is because these are important usability fixes/improvements to have for
the LTS release.
Adds `rna_path.cc` and `RNA_path.h`.
`rna_access.c` is a quite big file, which makes it rather hard and
inconvenient to navigate. RNA path functions form a nicely coherent unit
that can stand well on it's own, so it makes sense to split them off to
mitigate the problem. Moreover, I was looking into refactoring the quite
convoluted/overloaded `rna_path_parse()`, and found that some C++
features may help greatly with that. So having that code compile in C++
would be helpful to attempt that.

Rename and refactor several F-curve key manipulation functions, and move
them from `editors` to `blenkernel`.
The functions formerly known as `delete_fcurve_key`,
`delete_fcurve_keys`, and `clear_fcurve_keys` have been moved from
`ED_keyframes_edit.h` to `BKE_fcurve.h` and have been renamed according
to hierarchical naming rules.
Below is a table of the naming changes.
| From | To |
| -- | -- |
| `delete_fcurve_key(fcu, index, do_recalc)` | `BKE_fcurve_delete_key(fcu, index)` |
| `delete_fcurve_keys(fcu)` | `BKE_fcurve_delete_keys_selected(fcu)` |
| `clear_fcurve_keys(fcu)` | `BKE_fcurve_delete_keys_all(fcu)` |
| `calchandles_fcurve()` | `BKE_fcurve_handles_recalc()` |
| `calchandles_fcurve_ex()`| `BKE_fcurve_handles_recalc_ex()` |
The function formerly known as `delete_fcurve_key` no longer takes a
`do_fast` parameter, which determined whether or not to call
`calchandles_fcurve`. Now, the responsibility is on the caller to run
the new `BKE_fcurve_handles_recalc` function if they have want to
recalculate the handles.
In addition, there is now a new static private function called
`fcurve_bezt_free` which sets the key count to zero and frees the key
array. This function is now used in couple of instances of functionally
equivalent code. Note that `BKE_fcurve_delete_keys_all` is just a
wrapper around `fcurve_bezt_free`.
This change was initially spurred by the fact that `delete_fcurve_keys`
was improperly named; this was a good opportunity to fix the location
and naming of a few of these functions.

It's helpful to make the separation of legacy data formats explicit,

Many thanks to the original Author of this patch: Christian Aguilera
The COLLADA importer was silently ignoring the alpha component in the
vertex data.
The `stride` variable holds the component count (3 for RGB; 4 for RGBA),
and can be used for honouring the alpha channel in the vertex data.
Test plan:
- Open Blender.
- Clear the scene.
- Add a plane.
- Enter **Vertex Paint** mode.
- Switch to the **Erase Alpha** blending mode.
- Select a tone of gray.
- Turn strength down to less than 1
- Paint [some of] the vertices of the plane.
- Export project as a COLLADA file (`.dae`).
- Clear the scene.
- Re-import the COLLADA file again.
- Export the project again (with different name).
**Without** this patch, the second exported project will have lost the
alpha component in their vertex data:
```lang=xml, counterexample
<float_array id="Plane-mesh-colors-Col-array" count="24">1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1</float_array>
```
**With** the patch, the first and the second exported projects retain
the alpha values painted previously:
```lang=xml
<float_array id="Plane-mesh-colors-Col-array" count="24">1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0.5490196 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0.5490196</float_array>

This is mostly a cleanup to avoid hardcoding the eager calculation of
normals it isn't necessary, by reducing calls to `BKE_mesh_calc_normals`

boilerplate code and makes the "dirty by default" state more clear.

A mistake in the mesh normal refactor caused the wrong mesh to
be used when calculating normals with a shape key's deformation.
This commit fixes the normal calculation by using the correct mesh,
with just adjusted vertex positions, and calculating the results

the need to make a local copy of the mesh, which makes sense,
since the only thing that changes is the vertex positions.

Currently there is a "calc_face_normal" argument to mesh to bmesh
conversion, but vertex normals had always implicitly inherited whatever
dirty state the mesh input's vertex normals were in. Probably they were
most often assumed to not be dirty, but this was never really correct in
the general case.
Ever since the refactor to move vertex normals out of mesh vertices,
cfa53e0fbeed7178c7, the copying logic has been explicit: copy the
normals when they are not dirty. But it turns out that more control is
needed, and sometimes normals should be calculated for the resulting
BMesh.
This commit adds an option to the conversion to calculate vertex
normals, true by default. In almost all places except the decimate
and edge split modifiers, I just copied the value of the
"calc_face_normals" argument.
