The function `cdf_invert` was not doing linear interpolation
between the correct values. This fixes the issue and
make sure that `x` is never perfectly 0 nor 1.
Fixes#117755
Disabling tile_copy method for shadow update for
stability in scenes with large geometry counts
which may exceed parameter buffer size.
This pass can be re-used in future if the workload
distribution for shadow updates is changed to
better suit this method.

ffmpeg h.264 proxy requires frame dimension to be an even number,
previously the proxy building process didn't respect this, which will
cause proxy builidng failure. Now fixed.

It is possible to exit early from `autokeyframe_property` when fcurve
is nullptr and `only_if_property_keyed` boolean is true. Pass status of
`AUTOKEY_FLAG_INSERTAVAILABLE` instead of "false" to only add keys in
existing channels when "only insert available" is enabled in
preferences.

A previous PR resolved the loadstore config setup on bind, so
we can now re-enable load-store config with clearing of the
header texture via render pass.

Expose the region used for a temporary popup to the context so it's
possible for scripts to access the popup-region they're being drawn in.
Note that the internal naming is currently "menu" which is misleading
as these are used for all kinds of dialogs & popups. The RNA member is
called `region_popup` in this commit,
we could consider changing the name internally too.
Needed so it's possible for scripts to access the splash screen
so it can be refreshed, see: #120612.
Expose ED_region_tag_refresh_ui to the Python API.
This allows scripts to trigger regions to refresh which was previously
only accessible indirectly (via wmOperatorType::check).
Needed so scripts can make the splash screen refresh using a timer,
see #120612.
Set the context menu when first creating the popup,
not only when refreshing it.
Previously `Context::wm::menu` was set when a popups draw function ran
after being tagged RGN_REFRESH_UI, however the first time the draw
function ran this would be null. Ensure this is set in both cases
so logic that requires accessing the popup region can rely on it
being set.
Needed so the splash region is always accessible to implement #120612.
This adds a new `Transform` output socket of matrix type to the Object Info node.
This is clearly useful, but we did not do this before for a couple of reasons:
* It's redundant with the location, rotation and scale outputs.
* We might want separate `Object Transform` and `Object Geometry` nodes.
For now just adding the socket is probably useful enough to justify it. Even more
so because it's addition doesn't really block other designs in the future either.

This allows setting a color tag for node groups which affects the header
color of group nodes. With this, node groups can look even more similar
to built-in nodes. The only remaining difference is the node group icon in
the node header.
Blender has quite a few different built-in color tags. Most of those are
exposed with very few exceptions. For example, the layout, interface
and pattern categories are not exposed because they are only for built-in
nodes or are not used anymore.
It's generally agreed upon that the set of different color tags is likely too
large. Some differences between color make more sense in some contexts
than in others. In the interest of consistency, it was decided to expose all
these categories anyway. If we ever decide to consolidate them, the worst
that can happen is that a group looses it's category, which wouldn't be too bad.

Based on the design in #120230.
* Replaces the `Shade Smooth by Angle` operator with `Shade Auto Smooth`
in the object context menu menu.
* The new operator automatically adds and removes the modifier instead
of being a destructive operation.
* The `Shade Smooth` and `Shade Flat` operators now remove the
`Smooth by Angle` modifier automatically.
* Add a pin option to modifiers, which limits dragging and keeps the
modifier after newly added modifiers in the list.

This avoid black subsurface if only the world is lighting it.
This isn't yet supported when raytracing is on but then
the diffuse reflections are also working.
This patch allows the user to choose the Stage Up Axis at export time,
allowing the export to match another target software package. The most
common is reorienting to Y up. The up axis is written to stage metadata
and a top-level orientation is applied to reorient objects in the Stage.
The new orientation is required because the Stage metadata `upAxis` is,
apparently, not used during certain USD composition arcs. The
recomendation is to only use a single `upAxis` throughout the pipeline
and this option here allows files produced by Blender to more easily
conform to the conventions used as needed.

This is part of #121565.
Refactors `legacy_gpencil_to_grease_pencil` to use
`GreasePencil::insert_frame` instead of manually creating
the drawing array.
Now `legacy_gpencil_frame_to_grease_pencil_drawing`
actually returns a drawing by value.
Note: This means that we're now resizing the drawing
array for every frame in every layer, but this can be optimized
later.
It was meant to be included into the previous commit in the area,
but was forgotten due to some technicalities.
Also remove the DisplaceSimpleOperation, which is now not used.

This is part of #121565.
Renames the `insert_blank_frame` function to `insert_frame`.
Instead of returning a boolean for if the keyframe was created,
return a pointer to the drawing. This aligns more with how
we're using this API. After inserting a keyframe, it's common
to then e.g. write to the newly created drawing.
Also use sensible default parameter values for the duration
(default = implicit hold) and the keyframe type
(dafault = `BEZT_KEYTYPE_KEYFRAME`).
With this change, we're moving closer to the goal of
only allowing to create drawings by creating keyframes.
The setting was only affecting some of the blur operations, which
does not typically results in a measurable performance boost in real
compositor setups.
For the simplicity of settings on user level remove setting which
potentially makes compositor output worse, without much benefit.
There are better ways to gain performance, like compositing on a
lower resolution, exposing "preview" as an input to the node tree
(similar to the geometry nodes) etc.

This is part of #121565.
Since the function `Layer::add_frame` returns the `GreasePencilFrame`,
the `drawing_index` can be assigned after it's created.
This brings us a bit closer to the goal of only changing drawing indices
of frames in the internal API.
There are few issues with the logic and implementation of this option:
- While the first pass is faster in the terms of a wall-clock time, it
is often not giving usable results to artists, as the final look of
the result is so much different from what it is expected to be.
- It is not supported by the GPU compositor.
- It is based on some static rules based on the node type, rather than
on the apparent computational complexity.
The performance settings are planned to be moved to the RenderData, and
it is unideal to carry on such limited functionality to more places. There
are better approaches to quickly provide approximated results, which we can
look into later.

Previously when drawing curves and using surface project, the strokes
would snap to gizmos like lights and camera objects. This is not what
most people expect when projecting to surface objects, so disable them
from the depth check.
