Also decrease the scope of variables related to the loops.

This avoids unecessary complexity.
Also makes the GPUImmediate threadsafe by using a threadlocal imm variable.

This is related to the Vulkan port T68990.
This is a full cleanup of the Framebuffer module and a separation
of OpenGL related functions.
There is some changes with how the default framebuffers are handled.
Now the default framebuffers are individually wrapped inside special
GLFrameBuffers. This make it easier to keep track of the currently bound
framebuffer state and have some specificity for operations on these
framebuffers.
Another change is dropping the optimisation of only configuring the
changed attachements during framebuffers update. This does not give
any benefits and add some complexity to the code. This might be brought
back if it has a performance impact on some systems.
This also adds support for naming framebuffers but it is currently not
used.

This is done at drawtime automatically.
|
|
Draw-manager mutex has to be set before activating OpenGL/GPU context.
Otherwise, parallel jobs (like preview rendering) may try to activate
the context from another thread.
Also: Use WM wrappers for activating/releasing OpenGL context, which
have an additional assert check.
Suggest to backport this for 2.83.1.

Note this only changes cases where the variable was declared inside
the for loop. To handle it outside as well is a different challenge.

NOTE: While most of the milestone 1 goals are there, a few smaller features and
improvements are still to be done.
Big picture of this milestone: Initial, OpenXR-based virtual reality support
for users and foundation for advanced use cases.
Maniphest Task: https://developer.blender.org/T71347
The tasks contains more information about this milestone.
To be clear: This is not a feature rich VR implementation, it's focused on the
initial scene inspection use case. We intentionally focused on that, further
features like controller support are part of the next milestone.
- How to use?
Instructions on how to use this are here:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/How_to_Test
These will be updated and moved to a more official place (likely the manual) soon.
Currently Windows Mixed Reality and Oculus devices are usable. Valve/HTC
headsets don't support the OpenXR standard yet and hence, do not work with this
implementation.
---------------
This is the C-side implementation of the features added for initial VR
support as per milestone 1. A "VR Scene Inspection" Add-on will be
committed separately, to expose the VR functionality in the UI. It also
adds some further features for milestone 1, namely a landmarking system
(stored view locations in the VR space)
Main additions/features:
* Support for rendering viewports to an HMD, with good performance.
* Option to sync the VR view perspective with a fully interactive,
regular 3D View (VR-Mirror).
* Option to disable positional tracking. Keeps the current position (calculated
based on the VR eye center pose) when enabled while a VR session is running.
* Some regular viewport settings for the VR view
* RNA/Python-API to query and set VR session state information.
* WM-XR: Layer tying Ghost-XR to the Blender specific APIs/data
* wmSurface API: drawable, non-window container (manages Ghost-OpenGL and GPU
context)
* DNA/RNA for management of VR session settings
* `--debug-xr` and `--debug-xr-time` commandline options
* Utility batch & config file for using the Oculus runtime on Windows.
* Most VR data is runtime only. The exception is user settings which are saved
to files (`XrSessionSettings`).
* VR support can be disabled through the `WITH_XR_OPENXR` compiler flag.

A few thank you's:
* A huge shoutout to Ray Molenkamp for his help during the project - it would
have not been that successful without him!
* Sebastian Koenig and Simeon Conzendorf for testing and feedback!
* The reviewers, especially Brecht Van Lommel!
* Dalai Felinto for pushing and managing me to get this done ;)
* The OpenXR working group for providing an open standard. I think we're the
first bigger application to adopt OpenXR. Congratulations to them and
ourselves :)
This project started as a Google Summer of Code 2019 project - "Core Support of
Virtual Reality Headsets through OpenXR" (see
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/).
