Previous code would consider two different face groups sharing no common
edges as fully isolated from each other, and could assign them the same
bitflag facegroup value.
Following FBX recent option to export these bitflags smoothgroups (!135646),
also consider that two different face groups are connected if they only share
common vertices, and assign them different bitflags values.
NOTE: This seems to be the expected behavior in major DCCs actually
using smoothgroups, only considering boundary edges create groups that
generate broken shading when imported by these tools.
NOTE: The 'unique integer identifers' option is kept for OBJ exporter,
as such OBJ files are also found on internet, depending on which app
generated them.

The main issue of 'type-less' standard C allocations is that there is no check on
allocated type possible.
This is a serious source of annoyance (and crashes) when making some
low-level structs non-trivial, as tracking down all usages of these
structs in higher-level other structs and their allocation is... really
painful.
MEM_[cm]allocN<T> templates on the other hand do check that the
given type is trivial, at build time (static assert), which makes such issue...
trivial to catch.
NOTE: New code should strive to use MEM_new (i.e. allocation and
construction) as much as possible, even for trivial PoD types.

According to reports and testing in blender/blender-addons#104434, DCCs
tend to behave badly when rebuilding normals from 'bitflags'
smoothgroups, if different smoothgroups using the same bitflag value share
(are connected by) some common vertices, even if there are no common
edges between them.
This commit adds a new option to the RNA API generating smooth groups,
to also consider smooth groups only sharing vertices as neighbors.
It also makes related required change to implementation, and some
refactor of the API, splitting public functions between 'normal' and
'bitflags' versions.
This should make changes proposed in blender/blender-addons#105516
much simpler, and allow for a matching behavior in smoothgroups
generated by the OBJ exporter as well.

Restriction of the nodes api to clearly define never-null function arguments.
Side effects: some assertions and null-check (with early return) were removed.
On the caller side is ensured to never derefer null to pass argument (mainly in RNA).
In addition, one pointer argument now actually a return type.
By-reference return types instead of pointers going to be separate kind of
change since also imply of cleaning up variables created from reference.
Also good future improvement would be to mark a copy-constructor as
explicit for DNA node types.

"Expected textual data output" comparison based tests for FBX,
OBJ, PLY, STL import.
- There's a tests/python/modules/io_report.py that can produce
a "fairly short text description of the scene" (meshes, objects,
curves, cameras, lights, materials, armatures, actions, images).
About each object, it lists some basic information (e.g. number
of vertices in the mesh), plus a small slice of "data" (e.g.
first few values of each mesh attribute).
- Custom import parameters, if needed, can be provided by
having a sidecar .json file next to imported file (same
basename, json extension), that would have a single json
object with custom arguments.
- Add FBX test coverage, with 46 fairly small files (total size 3.8MB)
covering various possible cases (meshes, animations, materials,
hierarchies, cameras, etc. etc.).
- Switch OBJ/PLY/STL import tests to the above machinery, remove C++
testing code.

Main goals of this refactor:
* Make it more obvious which update function should be used.
* Make it more obvious which parameters are required by using references instead
of pointers.
* Support passing in multiple modified trees instead of just a single one.
No functional changes are expected.

The new description for `bNode.type_legacy`:
```
/**
* Legacy integer type for nodes. It does not uniquely identify a node type, only the `idname`
* does that. For example, all custom nodes use #NODE_CUSTOM but do have different idnames.
* This is mainly kept for compatibility reasons.
*
* Currently, this type is also used in many parts of Blender, but that should slowly be phased
* out by either relying on idnames, accessor methods like `node.is_reroute()`.
*
* A main benefit of this integer type over using idnames currently is that integer comparison is
* much cheaper than string comparison, especially if many idnames have the same prefix (e.g.
* "GeometryNode"). Eventually, we could introduce cheap-to-compare runtime identifier for node
* types. That could mean e.g. using `ustring` for idnames (where string comparison is just
* pointer comparison), or using a run-time generated integer that is automatically assigned when
* node types are registered.

When using clangd or running clang-tidy on headers there are
currently many errors. These are noisy in IDEs, make auto fixes
impossible, and break features like code completion, refactoring
and navigation.
This makes source/blender headers work by themselves, which is
generally the goal anyway. But #includes and forward declarations
were often incomplete.
* Add #includes and forward declarations
* Add IWYU pragma: export in a few places
* Remove some unused #includes (but there are many more)
* Tweak ShaderCreateInfo macros to work better with clangd
Some types of headers still have errors, these could be fixed or
worked around with more investigation. Mostly preprocessor
template headers like NOD_static_types.h.
Note that that disabling WITH_UNITY_BUILD is required for clangd to
work properly, otherwise compile_commands.json does not contain
the information for the relevant source files.

Currently each node's position is stored in the coordinate space of
its parent. To find the location of a node on the canvas, we have to
apply the translation of each of its parents. Also, nodes have hidden
"offset" values used while transforming frame nodes. Together,
those made the system much more complicated than necessary,
and they made the Python API ineffective.
This commit removes usage of the offset values and moves nodes
to be stored in the "global" space of the node canvas. It also resolves
some weird behavior when resizing frame nodes, and fixes a few bugs.
The change is forward compatible, so we still write files with nodes in
the old parent-space format. In 5.0 the conversion when writing can be
removed. The existing Python API also stays the same. A new
"location_absolute" property gives node locations in global space,
and changing the old property also moves the child nodes of frames.
Resolves#92458, #72904.

Adds support of NURBS weights or "rat bspline" in OBJ terms.
Tries to guess Blender knot mode better:
- Detects and closes loops. This decision is based on geometry only. No metadata is provided in OBJ for this, so importer has checkbox to disable this feature.
- Bezier knot mode allows to import circles and circular arcs.

When OBJ file contains vertex normals, this can in some cases confuse
the custom loop normals code inside Blender. Since it does not simply
just use custom normals, but rather projects them into "lnor space".
But that "lnor space" calculation can go haywire sometimes, when
degenerate faces are present in the input.
Mark zero-area faces as "sharp" before doing custom normals. This will
make them not try to share the "smooth fan" lnor space with other faces,
and things will look correct.
Previously, OBJ importer was (wrongly) always setting all faces
as "sharp", which avoided this problem, but caused other issues.

OBJ, PLY, and STL used a mix of fprintf, std::cout, and std::cerr to
trace warnings, errors, and general messages to the console.
Now, we instead use CLOG which provides real facilities for warnings and
errors and generally removes the need to pull in and use the heavy
`<iostream>` machinery.
For traces that should always be printed, `fmt::print` is used since
CLOG currently doesn't provide that particular level of trace.
Tests were only minimally changed to drop usage of streams while keeping
their prior usage of older stdio APIs. We can change to using fmtlib
there too if desired.

NOTE: This also required some changes to Cycles code itself, who is now
directly including `BKE_image.hh` instead of declaring a few prototypes
of these functions in its `blender/utils.h` header (due to C++ functions
names mangling, this was not working anymore).

The `fmtlib` text formatting library, when compiled in C++20 onwards,
requires that the incoming format string is a compile-time constant so
it's able to perform type checks against it[1]. The change here ensures
it can do so.
While we're not set to go to C++20 any time soon, this is a backwards
compatible change that can be done today and allows us to focus on the
harder fmt-related issues later.
No change in performance or functionality was observed.

Lift certain incorrect assumptions about the order of vertices in
an OBJ file when processing vertex colors, which could lead to
missing or randomly permuted colors.
Replaces the list-of-blocks representation, attuned to assumptions
that the verts in an object form a contiguous subrange, with a
flat array better suited for random-access.

Match function and declaration names, picking names based on
consistency with related code & clarity.
Also changes for old conventions, missed in previous cleanups:
- name -> filepath
- tname -> newname
- maxlen -> maxncpy
This continues the cmake modernization effort and introduces support for
allowing our optional dependencies to integrate properly. TBB is added
here as it's proven troublesome to maintain correctly.
Currently the only Blender project which uses the TBB headers directly
is `blenlib`. However, all downstream projects which require blenlib as
their dependency, and wish to properly make use of its threading
facilities, needed to define various TBB items in their CMake files. Not
only is this unnecessary and arcane, but several projects didn't do this
and ended up not using threading as well as producing ODR violations
along the way[1].
This PR makes TBB a modern dependency and exposes it PUBLIC'ly from
`blenlib`. All downstream projects which depend on blenlib will now
receive everything they require from TBB automatically. This includes
the `WITH_TBB` define, the headers, and the library itself.

Having both custom vertex normals and the "is the face sharp?"
attribute on a mesh leads to some non-intuitive behaviours. Instead,
make the behaviour more aligned with OBJ format description wording,
which says "When vertex normals are present, they supersede
smoothing groups" (https://paulbourke.net/dataformats/obj/).

Add a node similar to the STL import node (d1455c4138) that
imports OBJ files, including both meshes and curves. The output consists
of a geometry instance for each mesh/curve in the file.
There are a few improvements to address in the future: Currently the node
has no inputs besides the file path. Options may be exposed in the future.
Materials are also not imported yet, because creating material data-blocks
during evaluation may not be trivial.

The attribute API defined in `attribute.cc` was dependent on
the assumption that `ID`s are always the "direct" owners of attributes.
For Grease Pencil drawings, this is not the case. The Grease Pencil ID
stores the attributes for layers, and the attributes for drawings are stored
in `CurvesGeometry` on the drawings themselves.
In order to make use of `rna_attribute.cc`, we need that API to handle
other types of attribute owners.
This adds an `AttributeOwner` which is basically just a type and a
pointer. We replace the `ID` pointers and pass `AttributeOwner`s instead.
For cases where we have to do a switch based on the type, all the
types are handled and the `default` statment is left out. This ensures
that we get a compiler warning when a new `AttributeOwnerType`
is added.
No functional changes expected.
