Consider temporary directory to be variant part of session configuration
which gets communicated to the tile manager on render reset.
This allows to be able to render with one temp directory, change the
directory, render again and have proper render result even with enabled
persistent data.
For the ease of access to the temp directory expose it via the render
engine API (engine.temp_directory).

This includes much improved GPU rendering performance, viewport interactivity,
new shadow catcher, revamped sampling settings, subsurface scattering anisotropy,
new GPU volume sampling, improved PMJ sampling pattern, and more.
Some features have also been removed or changed, breaking backwards compatibility.
Including the removal of the OpenCL backend, for which alternatives are under
development.

This patch exposes the Cycles Alembic Procedural through the MeshSequenceCache
modifier in order to use and test it from Blender.
To enable it, one has to switch the render feature set to experimental and
activate the Procedural in the modifier. An Alembic Procedural is then
created for each CacheFile from Blender set to use the Procedural, and each
Blender object having a MeshSequenceCache modifier is added to list of objects
of the right procedural.
The procedural's parameters derive from the CacheFile's properties which are
already exposed in the UI through the modifier, although more Cycles specific
options might be added in the future.
As there is currently no cache controls and since we load all the data at the
beginning of the render session, the procedural is only available during
viewport renders at the moment. When an Alembic procedural is rendered, data
from the archive are not read on the Blender side.
If a Cycles render is not active and the CacheFile is set to use the Cycles Procedural,
bounding boxes are used to display the objects in the scene as a signal that the
objects are not processed by Blender anymore. This is standard in other DCCs.
However this does not reduce the memory usage from Blender as the Alembic data
was already loaded either during an import or during a .blend file read.
This is mostly a hack to test the Cycles Alembic procedural until we have a
better Blender side mechanism for letting renderers load their own geometry,
which will be based on import and export settings on Collections (T68933).

WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG was used for rendering BVH debugging passes. But since we
mainly use Embree an OptiX now, this information is no longer important.
WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG_NAN will enable additional checks for NaNs and invalid values
in the kernel, for Cycles developers. Previously these asserts where enabled in
all debug builds, but this is too likely to crash Blender in scenes that render
fine regardless of the NaNs. So this is behind a CMake option now.

For some custom rendering engines it's advantageous not to write the image files to disk.
An example would be a network rendering engine which does it's own image writing.
This feature is only supported when bl_use_postprocess is also disabled, since render
engines can't influence the saving behavior of the sequencer or compositor.

For Cycles, when enabling the Persistent Data option, the full render data
will be preserved from frame-to-frame in animation renders and between
re-renders of the scene. This means that any modifier evaluation, BVH
building, OpenGL vertex buffer uploads, etc, can be done only once for
unchanged objects. This comes at an increased memory cost.
Previously there option was named Persistent Images and had a more limited
impact on render time and memory.
When using multiple view layers, only data from a single view layer is
preserved to keep memory usage somewhat under control. However objects
shared between view layers are preserved, and so this can speedup such
renders as well, even single frame renders.
For Eevee and Workbench this option is not available, however these engines
will now always reuse the depsgraph for animation and multiple view layers.
This can significantly speed up rendering.
These engines do not support sharing the depsgraph between re-renders, due
to technical issues regarding OpenGL contexts. Support for this could be added
if those are solved, see the code comments for details.

This patch will share the AOV settings between Cycles and Eevee.
It enable using the AOV name conflict detection of Blender. This
means that unlike how Cycles used to work it isn't possible to add an
AOV with a similar name. Conflicts with internal render pass names will
be indicated with an Warning icon.

Eevee is now used for Freestyle rendering by default, since other engines are
unlikely to have support for this. Workbench and Cycles do their own rendering.

Approximately 138 changes in the spelling of compound words
and proper names like "Light Probe", "Shrink/Fatten", "Face Map".
In many cases, hyphens were used where they aren't correct, like
"re-fit". Other common changes include:
- "Datablock" -> "data-block"
- "Floating point" -> "floating-point"
- "Ngons" -> "n-gons"
These changes help give the language used in the interface
a consistent, more professional feel.

This was caused by `BPy_*_ALLOW_THREADS` being used when it shouldn't.
Implemented the simple fix suggested by @brecht :

Don't auto update render passes in nodes when unregistering render passes or
quitting Blender, this should only happen on explicit user action to change the
engine or passes.

There should be no user visible change from this, except that tile size
now affects performance. The goal here is to simplify bake denoising in
D3099, letting it reuse more denoising tiles and pass code.
A lot of code is now shared with regular rendering, with the two main
differences being that we read some render result passes from the bake API
when starting to render a tile, and call the bake kernel instead of the
path trace kernel.
With this kind of design where Cycles asks for tiles from the bake API,
it should eventually be easier to reduce memory usage, show tiles as
they are baked, or bake multiple passes at once, though there's still
quite some work needed for that.

RE_engine_register_pass is sometimes in the headers with type
as an integer parameter, sometimes as eNodeSocketDatatype.
This caused warnings, the root cause was makesrna was not able
to generate the proper type for enums and defaulted to int.
makesrna has been extended with the RNA_def_property_enum_native_type
that allows telling makesrna the native type of an enum, if set it
will be used otherwise it will still fall back to int.

Cycles uses the display_space_shader it gets from Blender. When

set the `color` uniform incorrectly. This resulted in a yellowish tint

This is enabled with bl_use_eevee_viewport = True. It allows external engines
to generate an Cycles/Eevee shader node setup to emulate their materials in
the realtime viewport, or to leave it to users to do manually.
Removed bl_use_exclude_layers and bl_use_shading_nodes that did nothing
anymore. This should not break API compatibility, any scripts setting those
should continue to work the same as before.
Also adds descriptions for some RenderEngine settings.

We can not access ensured-to-be-evaluated dependency graph from the

Currently this is possible after built-in images are loaded in memory.
Allows to save memory used by dependency graph and copy-on-write.
In practice this lowers peak system memory usage from 52GB to 42GB on
a production file of spring 03_035_A.lighting.
Note, that this only applies to F12 and command line renders.
Bigger note, that this optimization is currently only possible if
there are no grease pencil objects to be rendered.
