In large node setup the threading overhead was sometimes very significant.
That's especially true when most nodes do very little work.
This commit improves the scheduling by not using multi-threading in many
cases unless it's likely that it will be worth it. For more details see the comments
in `BLI_lazy_threading.hh`.

Replace `mesh_attributes`, `mesh_attributes_for_write` and the point
cloud versions with methods on the `Mesh` and `PointCloud` types.

Use `verts` instead of `vertices` and `polys` instead of `polygons`
in the API added in 05952aa94d33eeb50. This aligns better with
existing naming where the shorter names are much more common.

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).

Using the same `GeometryComponentFieldContext` for all situations,
even when only one geometry type is supported is misleading, and mixes
too many different abstraction levels into code that could be simpler.
With the attribute API moved out of geometry components recently,
the "component" system is just getting in the way here.
This commit adds specific field contexts for geometry types: meshes,
curves, point clouds, and instances. There are also separate field input
helper classes, to help reduce boilerplate for fields that only support
specific geometry types.
Another benefit of this change is that it separates geometry components
from fields, which makes it easier to see the purpose of the two concepts,
and how they relate.
Because we want to be able to evaluate a field on just `CurvesGeometry`
rather than the full `Curves` data-block, the generic "geometry context"
had to be changed to avoid using `GeometryComponent`, since there is
no corresponding geometry component type. The resulting void pointer
is ugly, but only turns up in three places in practice. When Apple clang
supports `std::variant`, that could be used instead.

Previously, curves sculpt tools only worked on original data. This was
very limiting, because one could effectively only sculpt the curves when
all procedural effects were turned off. This patch adds support for curves
sculpting while looking the result of procedural effects (like deformation
based on the surface mesh). This functionality is also known as "crazy space"
support in Blender.

Currently, there are two attribute API. The first, defined in `BKE_attribute.h` is
accessible from RNA and C code. The second is implemented with `GeometryComponent`
and is only accessible in C++ code. The second is widely used, but only being
accessible through the `GeometrySet` API makes it awkward to use, and even impossible
for types that don't correspond directly to a geometry component like `CurvesGeometry`.
This patch adds a new attribute API, designed to replace the `GeometryComponent`
attribute API now, and to eventually replace or be the basis of the other one.
The basic idea is that there is an `AttributeAccessor` class that allows code to
interact with a set of attributes owned by some geometry. The accessor itself has
no ownership. `AttributeAccessor` is a simple type that can be passed around by
value. That makes it easy to return it from functions and to store it in containers.
For const-correctness, there is also a `MutableAttributeAccessor` that allows
changing individual and can add or remove attributes.
Currently, `AttributeAccessor` is composed of two pointers. The first is a pointer
to the owner of the attribute data. The second is a pointer to a struct with
function pointers, that is similar to a virtual function table. The functions
know how to access attributes on the owner.
The actual attribute access for geometries is still implemented with the `AttributeProvider`
pattern, which makes it easy to support different sources of attributes on a
geometry and simplifies dealing with built-in attributes.
There are different ways to get an attribute accessor for a geometry:
* `GeometryComponent.attributes()`
* `CurvesGeometry.attributes()`
* `bke::mesh_attributes(const Mesh &)`
* `bke::pointcloud_attributes(const PointCloud &)`
All of these also have a `_for_write` variant that returns a `MutabelAttributeAccessor`.

Connecting to some sockets of a few nodes via the drag link search
would fail and trigger an assert, because the picked socket wasn't
available. This was due to some sockets only being available with
certain settings.
This patch fixes these cases by adding the availability conditions of
the socket to the node declaration with the `make_available` method
or manually adding a `node_link_gather_search` function.

This flag is only used a few small cases, so instead
of setting the flag for every node only set the
required flag for the nodes that require it.
Mostly the flag is used to set `ntype.flag = NODE_PREVIEW`
For nodes that should have previews by default which
is only some compositor nodes and some texture nodes.
The frame node also sets the `NODE_BACKGROUND` flag.
All other nodes were setting a flag of 0 which has no purpose.

We often had to use two `FieldEvaluator` instances to first evaluate
the selection and then the remaining fields. Now both can be done
with a single `FieldEvaluator`. This results in less boilerplate code in
many cases.
Performance is not affected by this change. In a separate patch we
could improve performance by reusing evaluated sub-fields that are
used by the selection and the other fields.

This puts all static functions in geometry node files into a new
namespace. This allows using unity build which can improve
compile times significantly (P2578).
* The name space name is derived from the file name. That makes
it possible to write some tooling that checks the names later on.
The file name extension (`cc`) is added to the namespace name as
well. This also possibly simplifies tooling but also makes it more
obvious that this namespace is specific to a file.
* In the register function of every node, I added a namespace alias
`namespace file_ns = blender::nodes::node_geo_*_cc;`. This avoids
some duplication of the file name and may also simplify tooling,
because this line is easy to detect. The name `file_ns` stands for "file
namespace" and also indicates that this namespace corresponds to
the current file. In the beginning I used `node_ns` but `file_ns` is more
generic which may make it more suitable when we want to use unity
builds outside of the nodes modules in the future.
* Some node files contain code that is actually shared between
different nodes. For now I left that code in the `blender::nodes`
namespace and moved it to the top of the file (couldn't move it to
the bottom in all cases, so I just moved it to the top everywhere).
As a separate cleanup step, this shared code should actually be
moved to a separate file.

Goals of this refactor:
* Simplify creating virtual arrays.
* Simplify passing virtual arrays around.
* Simplify converting between typed and generic virtual arrays.
* Reduce memory allocations.
As a quick reminder, a virtual arrays is a data structure that behaves like an
array (i.e. it can be accessed using an index). However, it may not actually
be stored as array internally. The two most important implementations
of virtual arrays are those that correspond to an actual plain array and those
that have the same value for every index. However, many more
implementations exist for various reasons (interfacing with legacy attributes,
unified iterator over all points in multiple splines, ...).
With this refactor the core types (`VArray`, `GVArray`, `VMutableArray` and
`GVMutableArray`) can be used like "normal values". They typically live
on the stack. Before, they were usually inside a `std::unique_ptr`. This makes
passing them around much easier. Creation of new virtual arrays is also
much simpler now due to some constructors. Memory allocations are
reduced by making use of small object optimization inside the core types.
Previously, `VArray` was a class with virtual methods that had to be overridden
to change the behavior of a the virtual array. Now,`VArray` has a fixed size
and has no virtual methods. Instead it contains a `VArrayImpl` that is
similar to the old `VArray`. `VArrayImpl` should rarely ever be used directly,
unless a new virtual array implementation is added.
To support the small object optimization for many `VArrayImpl` classes,
a new `blender::Any` type is added. It is similar to `std::any` with two
additional features. It has an adjustable inline buffer size and alignment.
The inline buffer size of `std::any` can't be relied on and is usually too
small for our use case here. Furthermore, `blender::Any` can store
additional user-defined type information without increasing the
stack size.

As part of the refactor to the node declaration builders, we had hoped
to add a regular expression specifically for these socket names, but
recent discussions have revealed that using the translation marker
macros is the preferred solution.
If the names and descriptions were exposed to RNA, these would not
be necessary. However, that may be quite complicated, since sockets
are all instances of the same RNA types.

In order to address feedback that the "Stable ID" was not easy enough
to use, remove the "Stable ID" output from the distribution node and
the input from the instance on points node. Instead, the nodes write
or read a builtin named attribute called `id`. In the future we may
add more attributes like `edge_id` and `face_id`.
The downside is that more behavior is invisible, which is les
expected now that most attributes are passed around with node links.
This behavior will have to be explained in the manual.
The random value node's "ID" input that had an implicit index input
is converted to a special implicit input that uses the `id` attribute
if possible, but otherwise defaults to the index. There is no way to
tell in the UI which it uses, except by knowing that rule and checking
in the spreadsheet for the id attribute.
Because it isn't always possible to create stable randomness, this
attribute does not always exist, and it will be possible to remove it
when we have the attribute remove node back, to improve performance.

This commit adds an updated version of the old attribute transfer node.
It works like a function node, so it works in the context of a
geometry, with a simple data output.
The "Nearest" mode finds the nearest element of the specified domain on
the target geometry and copies the value directly from the target input.
The "Nearest Face Interpolated" finds the nearest point on anywhere on
the surface of the target mesh and linearly interpolates the value on
the target from the face's corners.
The node also has a new "Index" mode, which can pick data from specific
indices on the target geometry. The implicit default is to do a simple
copy from the target geometry, but any indices could be used. It is also
possible to use a single value for the index to to retrieve a single
value from an attribute at a certain index.

With this commit, the distribute points on faces node runs only
once for every unique mesh in its input. That means if there are
100 instances of the same mesh, it will only run once.
This basically reverts rB84a4f2ae68d408301. The optimization there
didn't end up being worth it in the end, since it complicates code
quite a lot. It's also incompatible with this method of dealing with
instances, and it breaks field evaluation for instances, where we would
have to make sure to handle each instance transform properly otherwise,
evaluating the field separately for every instance.
