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.

For now, PointerRNA is made non-trivial by giving explicit default
values to its members.
Besides of BPY python binding code, the change is relatively trivial.
The main change (besides the creation/deletion part) is the replacement
of `memset` by zero-initialized assignment (using `{}`).
makesrna required changes are quite small too.
The big piece of this PR is the refactor of the BPY RNA code.
It essentially brings back allocation and deletion of the BPy_StructRNA,
BPy_Pointer etc. python objects into 'cannonical process', using `__new__`,
and `__init__` callbacks (and there matching CAPI functions).
Existing code was doing very low-level manipulations to create these
data, which is not really easy to understand, and AFAICT incompatible
with handling C++ data that needs to be constructed and destructed.
Unfortunately, similar change in destruction code (using `__del__` and
matching `tp_finalize` CAPI callback) is not possible, because of technical
low-level implementation details in CPython (see [1] for details).
`std::optional` pointer management is used to encapsulate PointerRNA
data. This allows to keep control on _when_ actual RNA creation is done,
and to have a safe destruction in `tp_dealloc` callbacks.
Note that a critical change in Blender's Python API will be that classes
inherinting from `bpy_struct` etc. will now have to properly call the
base class `__new__` and/or `__init__`if they define them.
Implements #122431.

Essentially, our current code would not properly remove (dereference)
its python objects matching various RNA data created during execution.
Some cases are fairly trivial to understand (like the lack of handling
of unregstering for our 'startup' operators and UI), other were more
subtle (like unregistered PropertyGroups who would remove/free their RNA
struct definition, without releasing first the potential matching python
object).
