This implements the new way to attach curves to a mesh surface using
a uv map (based on the recent discussion in T95776).
The curves data block now not only stores a reference to the surface object
but also a name of a uv map on that object. Having a uv map is optional
for most operations, but it will be required later for animation (when the
curves are supposed to be deformed based on deformation of the surface).
The "Empty Hair" operator in the Add menu sets the uv map name automatically
if possible. It's possible to start working without a uv map and to attach the
curves to a uv map later on. It's also possible to reattach the curves to a new
uv map using the "Curves > Snap to Nearest Surface" operator in curves sculpt
mode.
Note, the implementation to do the reverse lookup from uv to a position on the
surface is trivial and inefficient now. A more efficient data structure will be
implemented separately soon.

My benchmark which spend most time preparing function parameters
takes `250 ms` now, from `510 ms` before. This is mainly achieved by
doing less unnecessary work and by giving the compiler more inlined
code to optimize.
* Reserve correct vector sizes and use unchecked `append` function.
* Construct `GVArray` parameters directly in the vector, instead of
moving/copying them in the vector afterwards.
* Inline some constructors, because that allows the compiler understand
what is happening, resulting in less code.
This probably has negilible impact on the user experience currently,
because there are other bottlenecks.

Previously, the base math headers included GMP headers in all cases.
This was problematic because we don't want all modules that use the
math headers to depend on GMP, and the unnecessary includes could
theoretically have detrimental effects to compile times.
Now `BLI_math_mpq.hh` depends on `BLI_math_base.hh`, so if a file
needs to use exact arithmatic, it can just include the former.

Previously, when there were multiple curve points at the same or
almost the same position, the computed tangent was unpredictable.
Now, the handling of this case is more explicit, making it more
predictable. In general, when there are duplicate points, it will just use
tangents from neighboring points now.
Also fixes T98209.

Even though the `no_unique_address` attribute has only been standardized
in C++20, compilers seem to support it with C++17 already. This attribute
allows reducing the memory footprint of structs which have empty types as
data members (usually that is an allocator or inline buffer in Blender).
Previously, one had to use the empty base optimization to achieve the same
effect, which requires a lot of boilerplate code.
The types that benefit from this the most are `Vector` and `Array`, which
usually become 8 bytes smaller. All types which use these core data structures
get smaller as well of course.

* Port over new code tables from Cycles
* Convert Rec.709 to scene linear for lookup table.
* Move code for wavelength and blackbody to IMB so they can access the
required transforms, which are not in blenlib.
* Remove clamping from blackbody shader to bypass the texture read.
Since it's variable now easiest to just always read from the texture
than pass additional parameters.
* Fold XYZ to RGB conversion into the wavelength table.

Sometimes integers are mixed using float weights. In those cases
the mixed result has to be converted from into float again.
Previously, this was done using a simple cast, which was unexpected
because e.g. 14.999 would be cast to 14 instead of 15.
Now, the values are rounded properly.
This can affect existing files unfortunately without a good option
for versioning. Gladly, very few files seem to depend on the details
of the old behavior.

This is useful without any functionality specific to attribute domains,
rename to `BLI_str_format_decimal_unit` to follow naming of a similar
function `BLI_str_format_byte_unit`.
Apply a change similar to e130903060 for
`parallel_reduce`, just like `parallel_for`. I measured a performance
improvement in viewport FPS of at least 10% with 1 million small
instances (one bottleneck was computing many small bounding boxes).
This patch adds a float3x3 class that represents a 3x3 matrix. The class
can be used to represent a 2D affine transformation stored in a 3x3
matrix in column major order. The class provides various constructors
and processing methods, which utilizes the existing mat3 utilities in
BLI. Corresponding tests were also added.
This is needed by the upcoming viewport compositor to represent domain
transformations.

Inspired by D12936 and D12929, this patch adds general purpose
"Combine Color" and "Separate Color" nodes to Geometry, Compositor,
Shader and Texture nodes.
- Within Geometry Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB" and
"Separate RGB" nodes.
- Within Compositor Nodes, it replaces the existing
"Combine RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA" and "Separate RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA"
nodes.
- Within Texture Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGBA" and
"Separate RGBA" nodes.
- Within Shader Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB/HSV" and
"Separate RGB/HSV" nodes.
Python addons have not been updated to the new nodes yet.
**New shader code**
In node_color.h, color.h and gpu_shader_material_color_util.glsl,
missing methods hsl_to_rgb and rgb_to_hsl are added by directly
converting existing C code. They always produce the same result.
**Old code**
As requested by T96219, old nodes still exist but are not displayed in
the add menu. This means Python scripts can still create them as usual.
Otherwise, versioning replaces the old nodes with the new nodes when
opening .blend files.

Goals:
* Better high level control over where devirtualization occurs. There is always
a trade-off between performance and compile-time/binary-size.
* Simplify using array devirtualization.
* Better performance for cases where devirtualization wasn't used before.
Many geometry nodes accept fields as inputs. Internally, that means that the
execution functions have to accept so called "virtual arrays" as inputs. Those
can be e.g. actual arrays, just single values, or lazily computed arrays.
Due to these different possible virtual arrays implementations, access to
individual elements is slower than it would be if everything was just a normal
array (access does through a virtual function call). For more complex execution
functions, this overhead does not matter, but for small functions (like a simple
addition) it very much does. The virtual function call also prevents the compiler
from doing some optimizations (e.g. loop unrolling and inserting simd instructions).
The solution is to "devirtualize" the virtual arrays for small functions where the
overhead is measurable. Essentially, the function is generated many times with
different array types as input. Then there is a run-time dispatch that calls the
best implementation. We have been doing devirtualization in e.g. math nodes
for a long time already. This patch just generalizes the concept and makes it
easier to control. It also makes it easier to investigate the different trade-offs
when it comes to devirtualization.
Nodes that we've optimized using devirtualization before didn't get a speedup.
However, a couple of nodes are using devirtualization now, that didn't before.
Those got a 2-4x speedup in common cases.

This macro allows defining a default argument for when the translation
unit is compiled in C++. Otherwise (in C), the argument has to be passed
explicitly.
A couple of benefits:
* Default arguments are a nice quality-of-life feature in C++. It's
annoying if these can't be used in C++ files, just because the header
with the function declaration still needs to be C compatible.
* Adds useful information to the API declaration. E.g. that an argument
can be nullptr.
* Should help us to move to using default arguments more, helping
readability (arguably)

Since {rBeae36be372a6b16ee3e76eff0485a47da4f3c230} the distinction
between float and byte colors is more explicit in the ui. So far, geometry
nodes couldn't really deal with byte colors in general. This patch fixes that.

to and from byte colors is done when read from or writing to attributes.

* Support converting to/from byte color in attribute conversion operator.
* Support propagating byte color attributes.
* Add all the implicit conversions from byte colors to the other types.

- Verrtex paint mode has been refactored into C++ templates.
It now works with both byte and float colors and point
& corner attribute domains.
- There is a new API for mixing colors (also based
on C++ templates). Unlike the existing APIs byte
and float colors are interpolated identically.
Interpolation does happen in a squared rgb space,
this may be changed in the future.
