As part of T95966, this patch moves loose edge information out of the
flag on each edge and into a new lazily calculated cache in mesh
runtime data. The number of loose edges is also cached, so further
processing can be skipped completely when there are no loose edges.
Previously the `ME_LOOSEEDGE` flag was updated on a "best effort"
basis. In order to be sure that it was correct, you had to be sure
to call `BKE_mesh_calc_edges_loose` first. Now the loose edge tag
is always correct. It also doesn't have to be calculated eagerly
in various places like the screw modifier where the complexity
wasn't worth the theoretical performance benefit.
The patch also adds a function to eagerly set the number of loose
edges to zero to avoid building the cache. This is used by various
primitive nodes, with the goal of improving drawing performance.
This results in a few ms shaved off extracting draw data for some
large meshes in my tests.
In the Python API, `MeshEdge.is_loose` is no longer editable.
No built-in addons set the value anyway. The upside is that
addons can be sure the data is correct based on the mesh.
**Tests**
There is one test failure in the Python OBJ exporter: `export_obj_cube`
that happens because of existing incorrect versioning. Opening the
file in master, all the edges were set to "loose", which is fixed
by this patch.

The draw locking was implemented for project Heist and moved behind an experimental
feature after it became clear there were issues with it. Nowadays it isn't used,
and the idea is to replace it with a different solution after all draw engines have
been ported to the new draw manager API. {T102180}
This patch will remove the experimental feature as it isn't used, or useful.
The N in `Compiling Shaders N` in Text Info, is the number of how many
shaders are left in the queue. It's a countdown, but this wasn't mentioned
and led to confusion.
Ideally this text would be like Cycles' "Samples 50/100", but in EEVEE it's
not easy to guess how many shaders are left (this number could even go
up mid-compilation).
In the past there used to be a progress bar but it's also confusing because
it could be 90/100 shaders done, but the remaining 10 are slow to compile.
Change the text to "Compiling Shaders (N remaining)" so it's easier to
understand what is going on. Similar to how some game engines do.
Separate freeing and clearing mesh runtime data in a more obvious way.
This makes it easier to see what data is meant to be cleared on certain
changes, rather than conflating it with freeing all of the runtime
caches.
Also comment and reduce the surface area of the "mesh runtime" API.
The redundancy in some functions made it confusing which one should
be used, resulting in subtle bugs or unnecessary boilerplate code.
Also, now bke::MeshRuntime is able to free all the data it owns by
itself, which makes this area easier to reason about. That required
changing the interface of a few functions to avoid passing Mesh when
they really just dealt with some runtime struct.
With more RAII semantics in the future, more of this manual freeing
will become unnecessary.
After rB716ea1547989 the UV overlay is no longer displayed in
the UV Editor. It only appears for the Image Editor.
So restore the previous behavior, displaying the "UV shadow"
overlay in the UV editor as well.

This implements the base needed for supporting multiple view concurently
inside the same drawcall.
The view used by common macros and view related functions is indexed using
a global variable `drw_view_id` which can be set arbitrarly or read
from the `drw_ResourceID`.
This is needed for EEVEE-Next shadow but can be used for other purpose
in the future.
Note that a shader specialization is needed for it to work. `DRW_VIEW_LEN`
needs to be defined to the amount of view the shader will access.
The number of views contained in a `draw::View` is set at construction
time.
Note that the maximum number of object correctly drawn by the shaders
using multiple views will be lower than thoses who don't.
rBa8f7d41d3898 added a "duplicate" check for being in curves sculptmode
unnecessarily afaict (`in_sculpt_curve_mode` in addition to the
previously existing `in_curves_sculpt_mode`).
Over time, the later evolved to also take into account the output of a
viewer node, see rBc55d38f00b8c (the previously existing
`in_curves_sculpt_mode` did not receive this).
This all results in the fact that selection is not drawn with a viewer
node (can be useful though, and there are separate opacity controls for
both selection and the viewer attribute, so these can be used/blended to
everyones liking).
So now deduplicate the check.

A Loop to poly map was passed as an optional output to the loop normal
calculation. That meant it was often recalculated more than necessary.
Instead, treat it as an optional argument. This also helps relieve
unnecessary responsibilities from the already-complicated loop normal
calculation code.
The viewport cleans up old subdivision buffers right after drawing.
During rendering this was not done and when rendering many frames
this lead to memory issues.
This patch will also clear up the GPU Subdivision buffers after any
offscreen render or final render. There is already a mutex so this
is safe to be done from a non main thread.
Thanks to @kevindietrich to finding the root cause.
Properly initialize clump curve mapping tables for duplis and other cases
where this was missed by making a generic init/free function instead of
duplicating the same logic in multiple places. Also fold lattice deform
init into this.
The new Xcode 14.1 brings the new Apple Clang compiler which
considers sprintf unsafe and geenrates deprecation warnings
suggesting to sue snprintf instead. This only happens for C++
code by default, and C code can still use sprintf without any
warning.
This changes does the following:
- Whenever is trivial replace sprintf() with BLI_snprintf.
- For all other cases use the newly introduced BLI_sprintf
which is a wrapper around sprintf() but without warning.
There is a discouragement note in the BLI_sprintf comment to
suggest use of BLI_snprintf when the size is known.

Use the node topology cache and avoid modifying the node tree
in a non-threadsafe way to improve the predictability of using
the helper function. Replaces the implementation from
e0d4047136.
Currently there are both "EDGERENDER" and "EDGEDRAW" flags, which are
almost always used together. Both are runtime data and not exposed to
RNA, used to skip drawing some edges after the subdivision surface
modifier. The render flag is a relic of the Blender internal renderer.
This commit removes the render flag and replaces its uses with the
draw flag.
This patch introduces the concept of a Cached Resource that can be
cached across compositor evaluations as well as used by multiple
operations in the same evaluation. Additionally, this patch implements a
new structure for the realtime compositor, the Static Cache Manager,
that manages all the cached resources and deletes them when they are no
longer needed.
This improves responsiveness while adjusting compositor node trees and
also conserves memory usage.

This moves the implementation from the View to the draw manager itself.
However, this is not its final place and should be moved to the shader
create info at some point in the future.
For now it is not possible because of possible interaction with the
old draw manager codebase.
