The overall goal is to use implicit-sharing in many places in Blender
that currently do unnecessary copies. See #95845 for more details.
This commit only adds the base data structures in blenlib and uses those
in `GeometrySet` and `AnonymousAttributeID`, which used a more ad-hoc
version of implicit sharing already. #105994 lists some more places where
support for implicit sharing can be added (most notably: custom data layers).

This patch implements the Anti-Aliasing node by porting SMAA from
Workbench into a generic library that can be used by the realtime
compositor and potentially other users. SMAA was encapsulated in an
algorithm to prepare it for use by other nodes that require SMAA
support.

It worked until now because `<iostream>` was included by other headers
before the rotation ones. But this didn't work in all cases. This commit
make sure all rotation type headers include it.
Effectively replicate the behavior of the function in the manner
which is used for autosave file.
There might be better a solution which is cross-platform and does
not suffer from the time of check, time of use (TOCTOU) vector of
attack. This seems to be a bigger project to figure out, so until
then silence the warning: it is fine since the directory is only
used to chdir to, so worst case an external attacker can introduce
is a test failure.
It provides path to a directory suitable for storing temporary files
which satisfies the following conditions:
- The directory exists.
- The return path has trailing directory separator.
It is based on the code used in the appdir.c to get the temporary
directory.
For the C++ people: this is similar to the temp_directory_path()
from the std::filesystem.
No functional changes expected as it is a new code which is planned
to be used on other places as a followup development.
Only the text editor supported the primary clipboard & only for modal
selection. Now selecting text in the console & 3D text editing also
sets the primary clipboard under X11 & Wayland.
Notes:
- Pasting from the primary clipboard isn't yet exposed in the key-map
so in practice it's only useful for pasting text outside of Blender.
- Use skip-save option when pasting from the primary selection
so this is never used by the regular paste shortcut.
- This commit adds a primary-clipboard flag to WM_capabilities_flag() so
creating the the copy-buffer is only performed when necessary.
Memory chunks that were in the same hashed bucket but had different keys
were comparing memory unnecessary.
In practice this didn't happen all that often in my tests so the
performance improvement isn't significant.
Follow up to 4f10800094.
BLI_array_store still performed poorly for boolean arrays or any arrays
where many memory chunks had identical contents since the temporary hash
had many collisions, making lookups slow.
Resolve by ensuring duplicate chunks aren't added to the hash table.
Also increase the memory chunk size for edit-mesh undo to 64kb
which performs well with high poly meshes as it reduces the overhead of
having to manage many small memory chunks.
Notes:
- Before this change performance was quite bad (10-20x worse than v3.3).
- Performance from the test in #105046 is roughly the same as before.
- Performance of #105205 compared with v3.3 is close, even faster at
times but varies much more (likely caused by threading).
Add `index_range()` and `is_empty()` functions, rename `ranges_num()`
to `size()` (clarifying the final extra integer as an implementation
detail). Also remove the `size(index)` function which gave almost the
same assembly as `[index].size()` (https://godbolt.org/z/PYzqYs3Kr).
Since UVs are now stored as 2D vectors in meshes, they can be copied
directly to the vertex buffers. Somewhat surprisingly, multithreading
the copying into the vertex buffer provides a good speedup-- on a CPU
with many cores at least.
Here is a test uploading two UV maps created in geometry
nodes with a 1 million quad mesh, with a Ryzen 7950x:
| | Before | After | Speedup |
| ------- | ------- | ------ | ------- |
| Average | 24.3 ms | 7.5 ms | 3.2x |
| Min | 17.6 ms | 7.0 ms | 2.5x |
I added the copying utilities to the array utils header, since the
need for them has come up in a few different places already, and the
existing function with a selection argument didn't make sense here.

This makes it possible to use `Vector` recursively if the inline buffer
has 0 size. Any other inline buffer size does not work, because then
the type would be embedded in itself which does not make sense.

The method of accumulating values to create a hash for each chunk has
been improved for ~16% better distribution of the resulting hashes.
Improve performance of array de-duplication, see: #105046.
Accumulating hashes with a byte/boolean array didn't include enough
information for a useful hash, creating hashes with many collisions.
This is the root cause of a performance regression since 3.3 where
mesh data (used for storing edit-mesh undo steps) was changed to store
selection in a boolean array, creating a bottleneck de-duplicating
chunks of that array for edit-mesh undo's custom-data de-duplication.
Resolve by increasing hash accumulation for arrays with smaller elements,
so each chunk of memory (a candidate for de-duplication) isn't as likely
to have hash collisions.
`char` (single byte) arrays now accumulate 22 values instead of 7, it's
taking more values into account was necessary as these are effectively
bits in the case of boolean arrays, 2-byte values accumulate 32 bytes,
4-byte elements accumulate 44 bytes, larger structs accumulate
`sizeof(type) * 7` bytes (as before).
Also ensure the accumulation read-ahead never exceeds the chunk size -
technically a fix although this would only happen when passing a small
`chunk_count` to BLI_array_store_create (in the range of 1-16) so this
didn't happen in practice.
Improve performance of array de-duplication, see: #105046.
Use uint32_t since it's sufficient for hashing, using an int64_t was
especially inefficient when allocating an int64_t for every boolean
(when compacting an array of booleans).
Improve performance of array de-duplication, see: #105046.
The reasoning is that the detail namespace is not to be used
outside the module itself. But one might want to use different
number types with these templates.
The `Base` suffix was chosen in order to be consistent with `MatBase`
and `Vector` naming convention.
This patch re-implement the whole C rotation API into a more type
oriented C++ API. See the #104444 design task for more details about
the goals.
The list of C to C++ equivalent syntax can be found attached.
This adds `AngleRadian`, `AngleCartesian` and `AngleFraction` as
different angle types with the same interface. Each of them have
specific benefits / cons. See inline documentation for detail.
This adds `Axis` and `AxisSigned` class wrapped enums to increase type
safety with axes selection.
This adds `CartesianBasis` to represent orthonormal orientations.
Added a weight accumulation to dual-quaternions to make normalization
error proof. Creates the overhead of summing the total weight twice
(which I think is negligible) and add an extra float.
Named the dual-quaternion `DualQuaternion` to avoid naming ambiguity
with `DualQuat` which come up quite often (even with namespace).
