This change makes it so that objects which are temporary hidden from
the viewport (the icon toggle in outliner) do not affect on the
performance of the viewport.
The attached file demonstrates the issue. Before this change hiding
the object does not change FPS, after this change FPS goes high when
the object is hidden.

Changing the object temporary visibility is already expected to tag
scene for bases updates, which flushes down the stream to the object
visibility update. So the only remaining topic was to ensure the
graph does a special round of visibility update on such changes.

While it is hard to measure the performance impact accurately, there
is no need to perform per-modifier string lookup on every frame update.
Implemented as an exceptional case in the code which flushes updates to
the entire component. Sounds a bit suboptimal, but there are already
other exception cases handled in the function.

From the 3DView code has basically no knowledge of collection hierarchy,
so we can either not remap any local usage of linked objects that are
being overridden, or remap them in all their local collections.
The second behavior makes most sense in the vast majority of cases.
Note that this was only an issue when directly linking and overriding
objects, not when doing so through collections.
The purpose of `NodeTreeRef` was to speed up various queries on a read-only
`bNodeTree`. Not that we have runtime data in nodes and sockets, we can also
store the result of some queries there. This has some benefits:
* No need for a read-only separate node tree data structure which increased
complexity.
* Makes it easier to reuse cached queries in more parts of Blender that can
benefit from it.
A downside is that we loose some type safety that we got by having different
types for input and output sockets, as well as internal and non-internal links.
This patch also refactors `DerivedNodeTree` so that it does not use
`NodeTreeRef` anymore, but uses `bNodeTree` directly instead.
To provide a convenient API (that is also close to what `NodeTreeRef` has), a
new approach is implemented: `bNodeTree`, `bNode`, `bNodeSocket` and `bNodeLink`
now have C++ methods declared in `DNA_node_types.h` which are implemented in
`BKE_node_runtime.hh`. To make this work, `makesdna` now skips c++ sections when
parsing dna header files.
No user visible changes are expected.

This checks for the availability of `gl_BaseInstanceARB` or equivalent.
Disabling for any workaround that disables shader_image_load_store_support
as a preventive measure.
The case when the query uv is almost on an edge but outside of any
triangle was handled before. Now the case where the query uv is
almost on an edge but inside more than one triangle is handled as well.
I want to add support for PBR materials extension to OBJ, but the way
current I/O code syntax handling was done made it quite cumbersome
to extend the number of MTL textures/parameters.
Simplify all that by removing FormatHandler template on "syntax"
that gets routed through keyword enums, and instead just have
simple `write_obj_*` and `write_mtl_*` functions.
Simplify MTLMaterial to not contain a map of textures (that is always
fully filled with all possible textures), instead now there's
a simple array. Rename `tex_map_XX` to `MTLTexMap`.
All this does not affect behavior or performance, but it does result
in 170 fewer lines of code, and saves a couple kilobytes of executable
size.
While missing the break before a default that only breaks isn't
an error, it means adding new cases needs to remember to add the
break for an existing case, changing the default case will also
result in an unintended fall-through.
Also avoid `default:;` and add an explicit break.
This patch is a response to T92588 and is implemented
as a Function/Shader node.
This node has support for Float, Vector and Color data types.
For Vector it supports uniform and non-uniform mixing.
For Color it now has the option to remove factor clamping.
It replaces the Mix RGB for Shader and Geometry node trees.
As discussed in T96219, this patch converts existing nodes
in .blend files. The old node is still available in the
Python API but hidden from the menus.

When creating a curves data-block, one is expected to set the new
position values. We can slightly improve performance by avoiding
doing that redundantly.
Similar to cccc6d6905.
The "write_only" (i.e. no reading) API function expects the caller to
set values for all new attribute elements, so using calloc or setting
the default value first is redundant. In theory this can improve
performance by avoiding an extra pass over the array. I observed a
6% improvement in a basic test with the mesh to points node:
from 47.9ms to 45ms on average.
See 25237d2625 for more info.
Similar to cccc6d6905.
In all these cases, it was clear that the layer values were set right
after the layer was created anyway. So there's no point in using
calloc or setting the values to zero first.
See 25237d2625 for more info.
If a "rest_position" attribute already existed, potentiall with another
type, the next name "rest_position.001" would be used, which might
even conflict with a name on another domain. Use the C++ attribute
API instead, which has more standard/predictable behavior.
This allows the render engine to expect non-overlapping resources in the
generated create info.
Textures are indexed from 0 and up.
Nodetree ubo is bound to slot 0.
Uniform attributes ubo is bound to slot 1.
When allocating new `CustomData` layers, often we do redundant
initialization of arrays. For example, it's common that values are
allocated, set to their default value, and then set to some other
value. This is wasteful, and it negates the benefits of optimizations
to the allocator like D15082. There are two reasons for this. The
first is array-of-structs storage that makes it annoying to initialize
values manually, and the second is confusing options in the Custom Data
API. This patch addresses the latter.
The `CustomData` "alloc type" options are rearranged. Now, besides
the options that use existing layers, there are two remaining:
* `CD_SET_DEFAULT` sets the default value.
* Usually zeroes, but for colors this is white (how it was before).
* Should be used when you add the layer but don't set all values.
* `CD_CONSTRUCT` refers to the "default construct" C++ term.
* Only necessary or defined for non-trivial types like vertex groups.
* Doesn't do anything for trivial types like `int` or `float3`.
* Should be used every other time, when all values will be set.
The attribute API's `AttributeInit` types are updated as well.
To update code, replace `CD_CALLOC` with `CD_SET_DEFAULT` and
`CD_DEFAULT` with `CD_CONSTRUCT`. This doesn't cause any functional
changes yet. Follow-up commits will change to avoid initializing
new layers where the correctness is clear.

Issue arises when face areas are really large combined with small UV
areas (report has a mesh ~1.5 km), then precission of shorts is
insufficient.
Now use floats instead.
This also removes this negative signed version of the total area ratio
(since with floats it is no longer used).
Thx @brecht for a lot of hand-holding!
NOTE: this is an alternative to D15805 (and quick tests show this does
not introduce the tiny performance hit as D15805 did).

Using the same `GeometryComponentFieldContext` for all situations,
even when only one geometry type is supported is misleading, and mixes
too many different abstraction levels into code that could be simpler.
With the attribute API moved out of geometry components recently,
the "component" system is just getting in the way here.
This commit adds specific field contexts for geometry types: meshes,
curves, point clouds, and instances. There are also separate field input
helper classes, to help reduce boilerplate for fields that only support
specific geometry types.
Another benefit of this change is that it separates geometry components
from fields, which makes it easier to see the purpose of the two concepts,
and how they relate.
Because we want to be able to evaluate a field on just `CurvesGeometry`
rather than the full `Curves` data-block, the generic "geometry context"
had to be changed to avoid using `GeometryComponent`, since there is
no corresponding geometry component type. The resulting void pointer
is ugly, but only turns up in three places in practice. When Apple clang
supports `std::variant`, that could be used instead.
