Add back the deprecated format to avoid asserts.
GPU backends should still have the code to support them.
Also add deprecation warnings as these types will be
removed for 5.0.

This commit finishes removing the uses of the integer to float
vertex buffer fetch mode. Previous commits noted below already started
that process. The last usage was geometry attributes. Now integers are
converted to floats as part of the existing upload process.
The change makes the Vulkan vertex buffer type conversion unused, so
it's removed. That's nice because Vulkan vertex buffers go from 1040 to
568 bytes in size and have significantly less overhead on creation.

This unifies vertex and texture data formats
into a single base enum class.
`TextureFormat` and `VertexFormat` then mask
the invalid format for their respective usage.
Having a base enum allows casting between
`TextureFormat` and `VertexFormat` possible
(needed for Buffer Textures).
It also makes it easier to write and read data
to buffers/textures as each format will have an
associated host type.
These enum is generated from MACRO expansion.
This allow to centralize all information about
the formats in one place. This avoid duplicating
the list of enums for each backend.
This only creates the new enum. Porting older enums will
be done in other PRs.

And slightly simplify two string processing functions in this API,
`GPU_vertformat_safe_attr_name` and `copy_attr_name`.
This makes the API easier to interface with from C++ code,
and can avoid unnecessary string length measurements.

Move the code dealing with converting float3 to GPU normals
out of the vertex format header into a separate header. Use a
proper C++ namespace and remove duplication by only using
the more recently added C++ templated conversions.
Most of the diff comes from the removal of the indirect includes
from GPU_vertex_format.hh. A lot of files ended up mistakenly
depending on that.

A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:

Currently the `MLoopUV` struct stores UV coordinates and flags related
to editing UV maps in the UV editor. This patch changes the coordinates
to use the generic 2D vector type, and moves the flags into three
separate boolean attributes. This follows the design in T95965, with
the ultimate intention of simplifying code and improving performance.
Importantly, the change allows exporters and renderers to use UVs
"touched" by geometry nodes, which only creates generic attributes.
It also allows geometry nodes to create "proper" UV maps from scratch,
though only with the Store Named Attribute node for now.
The new design considers any 2D vector attribute on the corner domain
to be a UV map. In the future, they might be distinguished from regular
2D vectors with attribute metadata, which may be helpful because they
are often interpolated differently.
Most of the code changes deal with passing around UV BMesh custom data
offsets and tracking the boolean "sublayers". The boolean layers are
use the following prefixes for attribute names: vert selection: `.vs.`,
edge selection: `.es.`, pinning: `.pn.`. Currently these are short to
avoid using up the maximum length of attribute names. To accommodate
for these 4 extra characters, the name length limit is enlarged to 68
bytes, while the maximum user settable name length is still 64 bytes.
Unfortunately Python/RNA API access to the UV flag data becomes slower.
Accessing the boolean layers directly is be better for performance in
general.
Like the other mesh SoA refactors, backward and forward compatibility
aren't affected, and won't be changed until 4.0. We pay for that by
making mesh reading and writing more expensive with conversions.

This is the conventional way of dealing with unused arguments in C++,
since it works on all compilers.
Regex find and replace: `UNUSED\((\w+)\)` -> `/*$1*/`
- Adding in compatibility paths to support minimum per-vertex strides for vertex formats. OpenGL supports a minimum stride of 1 byte, in Metal, this minimum stride is 4 bytes. Meaing a vertex format must be atleast 4-bytes in size.
- Replacing transform feedback compile-time check to conditional look-up, given TF is supported on macOS with Metal.
- 3D texture size safety check added as a general capability, rather than being in the gl backend only. Also required for Metal.

Some GPU platforms don't support having more than one underscore in
sequence in an attribute name. This change will remove the underscore
as a possible character when encoding to save names.
