This is a migration of the current Line Art modifier to GPv3.
Note:
- The modifier is using the exact same DNA structure as the old one, it's re-defined in a different name. At the moment all the variable names and placement after the `ModifierData` part should stay exactly the same until we do proper versioning of the modifier data and completely remove the GPv2 support.
- Vertex weight transfer feature no longer supports name initial matching ("group" used to match "group1","group2" etc). Now it will only transfer vertex weight from source vertex groups that has the exact same name as specified.

This adds support by just reusing the GGX reflection LTC
look-up table. This avoid more memory usage for another
table.
This is quite a hack and has no real physical ground.
We already have a roughness remapping function for
reusing sphere-probe for refraction and matching the
blur level. We can reuse this function and use it
for sampling the reflection LUT.
Then getting the theta LUT parameter is done by
computing the angle between the refraction direction
and the reversed normal.
This works because the table is parametrized using the
angle between the view vector and the normal. This angle
is the same as the angle between the reflection vector
and the normal. So to get the equivalent lobe in the
refraction direction we get the angle between the
refraction direction and the reversed normal.
Note: This has issues shadow-map tagging but it should
be fixed separately.

Unit tests were assuming that creating a catalog from a path would not
create catalogs for the parent path elements if missing. I'd argue this
should not be unit tested since it's internal behavior that isn't
visible to API users. But for now I'll keep the test working as is, also
to avoid indirect recursive calls of `create_missing_catalogs()`.
Rebuilding the tree immediately after changes could cause the tree to be
rebuilt multiple times. More importantly, it made it harder to reason
about thread safety, since we would touch the tree within a whole bunch
of API functions. Now tree building is simplified and managed in a
single place, so making the tree building thread safe can be made
trivially in a follow-up.
Note, this means the initial catalog tree building doesn't happen in a
background thread together with loading the asset library and catalogs
anymore. But we would already do all further rebuilds on the main thread
anyway, this shouldn't have any notable impact.
Line art used to not calculate edges where both ends are outside image
frame, this will lead to missing edges in some cases where the model is
scaled up pretty big. Now it ensures those edges are still preserved.

Line art shadow projection will cut lines indefinitely when it
encounters a edge segment with 0 length. In the case of #118547, it was
caused by the combination bevel modifier and the view angle. This fix
ensures that no such edge is worked on further.

The objective is to be able to create your own GLSL shaders in Blender.
This improves the workflow since all shader programming can be done
directly in Blender. In addition, the GLSL language is a very popular
language in the video games industry and even in general.

This optimizes a few loops that become significant bottlenecks during
viewport rendering of scenes with large numbers of curves.
To render a curves object, Blender needs to generate a potentially
very large (but trivial) index buffer. As previously implemented,
this index buffer is generated in an extremely inefficient manner,
with a single-threaded loop and an explicit function call per entry.
The buffer then needs to be pushed onto the GPU, which is also a fairly
slow task.
The PR generates the index buffer directly on the GPU with compute
shader.

The standard `threading::parallel_for` function tries to split the range into
uniformly sized subranges. This is great if each element takes approximately
the same amount of time to compute.
However, there are also situations where the time required to do the work for
a single index differs significantly between different indices. In such a case,
it's better to split the tasks into segments while taking the size of each task into
account.
This patch implements `threading::parallel_for_weighted` which allows passing
in an additional callback that returns the size of each task.

The goal of this task is to remove noise in the most common material
layering configuration.
Subsequently, this also split the evaluation of different closure to
their own buffer to avoid discontinuity when denoising them.
This commit does a few things:
- [x] Removes use of global for closure random number.
- [x] Refactor the forward evaluation to be closure type agnostic.
- [x] Refactor the gbuffer lib to be closure type agnostic.
- [x] Reduces the number of picked closure to 3 maximum or less.
- [x] Use GPU_MATFLAG_COAT to tag the use of multiple usage of glossy BSDF.
- [x] Use two closure bin for Glossy when more than one.
- [x] Set closure bin per type for best noise level for most materials.
- [x] Change the gbuffer header to put the closure at their bin index.
- [x] Add a method to get a closure from the gbuffer from a specific bin.
- [x] Split lighting passes per Closure.

Basic motivation is that `AssetCatalogService::get_catalog_tree()`
should return a const tree, since this tree is internal state and
shouldn't be modified from outside. This exposed a whole bunch of const
incorrectnesses and just generally allows to make much more of the API
const (as it should be).
Also use references instead of pointers in testing functions, where null
is not an expected value.
The asset catalog selector tree-view would store a copy of each of the
items in the catalog tree, including all of its sub-hierarchy. This can
be avoided, it can just use a reference.
This fixes an issue where the number of viewport samples are set
to 1 and reprojection is deactivated. In this case the sample that
has the data to update the probes is ignored as all samples where
already rendered. A tweak in the viewport was needed to fix this issue.

While most situations would have other vertexgroups set anyways (so this
probably wasnt noticed, it was only ignored if it is the only
vertexgroup used), at least theoretically it could happen that
`cloth_uses_vgroup` would return false even then `vgroup_shear` is set
(thus skipping actually setting these weights later).
When disabling/enabling reflection probes the atlas texture can be
recreated removing the existing content of the texture. When this
happens the world probe needs to be rerendered.

`refresh_catalogs()` for the "All" asset library effectively does the
same as iterating over all other asset libraries and calling
`get_asset_library()` on them. So doing both just performs the same work
twice.
Mistake in #118463.
Updating the catalogs of the "All" asset library would also reload
catalog data of the other asset libraries from disk. This wasn't
intended, this should be done with an explicit load request only (and on
a thread to not block the main thread).

NLA and driver tree-elements were not added to the outliner when
"action" is unlinked from the object. This is due to the wrong `if`
condition preventing the excution of `expand_drivers/expand_NLA_tracks`.
