Based on discussions from T95355 and T94193, the plan is to use
the name "Curves" to describe the data-block container for multiple
curves. Eventually this will replace the existing "Curve" data-block.
However, it will be a while before the curve data-block can be replaced
so in order to distinguish the two curve types in the UI, "Hair Curves"
will be used, but eventually changed back to "Curves".
This patch renames "hair-related" files, functions, types, and variable
names to this convention. A deep rename is preferred to keep code
consistent and to avoid any "hair" terminology from leaking, since the
new data-block is meant for all curve types, not just hair use cases.
The downside of this naming is that the difference between "Curve"
and "Curves" has become important. That was considered during
design discussons and deemed acceptable, especially given the
non-permanent nature of the somewhat common conflict.
Some points of interest:
- All DNA compatibility is lost, just like rBf59767ff9729.
- I renamed `ID_HA` to `ID_CV` so there is no complete mismatch.
- `hair_curves` is used where necessary to distinguish from the
existing "curves" plural.
- I didn't rename any of the cycles/rendering code function names,
since that is also used by the old hair particle system.

This patch refactors the "Hair" data-block, which will soon be renamed
to "Curves". The larger change is switching from an array of `HairCurve`
to find indices in the points array to simply storing an array of offsets.
Using a single integer instead of two halves the amount of memory for that
particular array.
Besides that, there are some other changes in this patch:
- Split the data-structure to a separate `CurveGeometry`
DNA struct so it is usable for grease pencil too.
- Update naming to be more aligned with newer code and the style guide.
- Add direct access to some arrays in RNA
-- Radius is now retrieved as a regular attribute in Cycles.
-- `HairPoint` has been renamed to `CurvePoint`
-- `HairCurve` has been renamed to `CurveSlice`
- Add comments to the struct in DNA.
The next steps are renaming `Hair` -> `Curves`, and adding support
for other curve types: Bezier, Poly, and NURBS.

Some DNA headers already did this, most did not. Even though many of them would
be included in C++ files and thus compiled as C++. This would be confusing and
developers may think they have to add `extern "C"` too a whole lot of
(indirect) includes to be able to use a C header in C++.
However, this is a misconception.
`extern "C"` does not cause code to be compiled with C rather than C++! It only
causes the linker to not use C++ function name mangling. See
https://stackoverflow.com/a/1041880.
Because extern DNA headers don't have function declarations, using `extern "C"`
actually should not have any effect. On the other hand, adding it causes no
harm and avoids confusion. So let's just have it consistently in C header
files.

This puts all generic float/int/vector/color/string geometry attributes in a new
.attributes property. For meshes it provides a more general API for existing
attributes, for point clouds attributes will be used as an essential part of
particle nodes.
This patch was implemented by @lichtwerk, with further changes by me. It's
still a work in progress, but posting here to show what is going on and for
early feedback.

This replaces header include guards with `#pragma once`.
A couple of include guards are not removed yet (e.g. `__RNA_TYPES_H__`),
because they are used in other places.
This patch has been generated by P1561 followed by `make format`.

Only the volume object is exposed in the user interface. It is based on OpenVDB
internally. Drawing and rendering code will follow in another commit.

Hair and PointCloud object types are hidden behind a WITH_NEW_OBJECT_TYPES
build option. These are unfinished, and included only to make it easier to
cooperate on development in the future and avoid tricky merges.
