Avoid function call overhead and parallelize the creation of the edit
and sculpt mode lines index buffers. Also, remove an extra index that
was added for each curve when there are no cyclic curves.
Though ideally these index buffers would be generated on the GPU, this
simple change makes this part of the GPU data building almost 5x faster
(from 1.23 ms to 0.25 ms for curves with 80 thousand points).

Instead of the monolothic `depsgraph_type.hh` header that includes
most types used in the despgraph, just add includes where they are
actually necessary. Also remove the `using` keywords for `std` types.
The lack of specificity isn't considered good practice nowadays.
Removing unnecessary transitive includes can help improve compile
times because the time spent parsing headers decreases. Using the
"include what you use" pattern makes futher improvements much
easier too, since it the path to further reduce transitive includes
becomes much clearer.

The algorithm to calculate face corner normals had a vertex normal
input, with the intention to pre-populate corner normals for vertices
with no sharp connected edges. However corner normals are calculated
separately for these fully sharp vertices later anyway, so this whole
step was completely redundant. Removing the vertex normals calculation
reduces memory usage and improves performance. In a test file with a
character with custom normals, this changed improved the playback FPS
by 15%, from 41 to 47 FPS. The impact will usually be lower than that
but it should be noticeable in other scenes too.

The Indices Overlay used a blue color without shadow to render the
indices in edit mode unlike the Attribute Viewer which uses white text
with shadow. So for consistency, the Indices Overlay has been changed
to use the same style.

Add workaround path to process the vertices the same way as
the `overlay_extra_vert` shader.
We nudge the non-origin vertices in the batch to be able
to not require loading the VCLASS attribute. Thus making
the change local to the shader and not requiring another
shader variant.
Previously, the check to get strokes under the cursor used
SEARCH_RADIUS_PIXEL (20), since 1eb39a8689,
this is now using the real brush radius which is wrong.
To resolve, go back to 20 as a hardcoded value.

The "On Back" option in the viewport draw mode allows new strokes to be
placed behind existing strokes, grease pencil will now recognize this
option when using primitives drawing tool.

The crash happens because some layout drawing code accesses the evaluated data
which is being generated by the baking thread. This access is not thread safe
currently.
This patch simply locks the UI of the properties editor when the interface is
locked using `WM_set_locked_interface` which is done during baking. The same is
done for the 3d view, node editor and spreadsheet already.

When duplicating an action, it is stashed in the NLA on a muted track.
Over time this can slow down blender, because certain code will look at every
FCurve in every action in the NLA.
To fix the performance issue, we can take advantage of the fact that
stashed actions are put onto a muted NLA track.
With this patch any strip on a muted NLA track is ignored in the
Depsgraph evaluation.
