This increases the framerate in a production file from about 2.3 to 2.5
FPS, and reduces gaps in a profile where the CPU was waiting for just
a few threads to finish the BVH tree lookups. If BVH lookups become
faster in the future, this grain size could be increased.
No user visible changes expected.
This brings us another step closer to replacing the temporary asset
handle design with the proper asset representation design. I held off
with this a bit because we eventually want to support non-ID assets, but
for now it is fine to consider all assets to be IDs. In future the asset
system can make the necessary distinctions still.
Now only the preview is handled via asset handle still.
`SCE_SNAP_MODE_FACE_NEAREST` is actually not supported as one of the
geometry snap modes.
It is not used for either the snap cursor or the `Set Snap Base` mode.
Fixes#108730
The call to `CustomData_interp` also interpolated the face corner
topology attributes, which broke the mesh completely. To fix this,
avoid relying on the CustomData API and move the attribute
interpolation to use the attribute API instead. This change also
makes it trivial to support all attribute types in the future.
Also, only retrieve the closest vertex once, instead of doing it
again for every attribute. Combined with building the topology
maps in parallel this approximately doubled the performance
of color attribute propagation in a test with 2 million vertices
and 8 color attributes on both domains (63 to 34 ms).

No user visible changes expected.
This is needed in #104831 but makes sense to expose publicly in the
asset system APIs either way. So committing this to the main branch
already.
Ensure buffer read operations wait for pending GPU work to
complete. This is only required for unit tests, but required to
ensure correct results in all cases. Also adds support for staging
buffer if GPU memory type is private.
Buffer clearing routine added to support values above 1 byte.
The previous buffer clearing functionality using fillBuffer writes
values to each byte, rather than the full 32 bit uint used by the
GPU API.

No user visible change expected.
It wasn't clear that the caller of `UI_textbutton_activate_rna()` would
have to override the context region for it to work correctly. This is
only the case because UI internals happen to require it.
Instead of implicitly requiring the caller to do the context override so
UI internals work, do the override inside of the API function in
question.
Ensure float3 data types are marked as packed where appropriate for
ObjectInfos and instead update ObjectBounds during resource
finalization using local resource to reduce global memory thrashing.

The filter is used to reduce noise while preserving edges. It can be used to create a cartoon effect from photorealistic images.
It offers two variations:
1) Classic aka isotropic kuwahara filter: simple and faster computation. Algorithm splits an area around a single pixel in four parts and computes the mean of the region with the lowest standard deviation.
2) Anisotropic Kuwahara filter: improves the classical approach by considering the direction of structures of regions
This patch implements both approaches above as multi-threaded operations for the full-frame and tiled compositor.

The ownership of image views depends on how they are used. When used as
an framebuffer attachment the image view is owned by the framebuffer.
When used as a image/texture in a shader the ownership of the image view
is the texture itself.

* opengl_context -> system_gpu_context. This is the operating system OpenGL,
Metal or Vulkan context provided by GHOST.
* gpu_context -> blender_gpu_context. This is the GPUContext provided by
the Blender GPU module, which wraps the GHOST context and adds some state.
* Various functions create/destroy/enable/disable both contexts, these have
just gpu_context in the name now.

This patch implements the Sun Beams node for the realtime compositor.
The implementation is not identical to the existing CPU implementation,
but is very close. The new implementation is a higher quality one and
resolves some of the artefacts in the existing implementation. This is
achieved by doing a simple line integration toward the source pixel,
while having a number of integration steps that is invariant of the
angle to the source.

The code assumed that the edge to poly map returns 2 polys,
which of course is not always the case, e.g. the border edges on a plane
Now the code assumes there is at least 1 face
which should be true since the code picks a face to begin with.

As pointed out by @pablovazquez the selection behavior
of the face loop selection in paint modes was missing the toggle feature.
The logic goes like this:
If any of the 2 adjacent faces to the selected edge are selected,
deselect instead of select.
There is still an inconsistency which I left in for this patch,
but is up to discussion.
CTRL+ALT+SHIFT click does an actual deselect in paint mode.
In edit mode it does toggle as well, just as ALT+SHIFT click
I can remove that feature if it isn't wanted

The graph editor has the function to hide the display of FCurves and to only draw keyframes on selected curves.
Both options were not respected when executing the frame jump operator,
meaning it would jump to potentially hidden keyframes.
This patch adds a new operator that is specific to the Graph Editor and that respects those features.
The only possible issue that could arise from this is a slight confusion for the user
why they behave differently between editors.
Especially with only the Graph Editor and the 3D view open.
In general I think it's an improvement and follows the "you can only modify what you see" mantra in blender

Issue here was that Quick Favorites use a property's **identifier** when
adding [which is the bare name without brackets etc. from id properties]
but when spawning the actual menu, `RNA_struct_find_property` expects
the identifier to already include the brackets to know these are id
properties (later on in `screen_user_menu_draw`).
So to solve this, now include the needed syntax when storing the
`bUserMenuItem_Prop` identfier.
Seems the quickest way to append the needed characters is using
`RNA_path_property_py` (not sure if there are better ways to do this).
Also note that we (need to) ignore the actual array index constructing
the string [always pass -1 here] since the index is handled separately [I
tested boolean arrays and these work].

This implements the `VIEW3D_OT_select_box` for the new grease pencil data-block.
Note that this also adds a `get_evaluated_grease_pencil_drawing_deformation` function, but there are TODOs left.
This will have to be updated once the modifier logic is in place.

Asset data can now be copied in Python via assignment to
`id.asset_data`, so for example `dest.asset_data = source.asset_data`.
This copies the description, license, author, etc. fields, as well as
the tags and the asset catalog assignment.
This is intended to be used in the pose library, when updating a pose by
simply creating a new asset and having that replace the old one.
This is intentionally taking a copy, even though the above use case
could have sufficed with a higher-level 'move' function. By exposing
this as a copy, it can be used in a wider range of situations, from
whatever Python code wants to use it. This could include copying the
asset data from the active asset to all the other selected ones.
Any pre-existing asset data is freed before the copy is assigned. The
target ID MUST be marked as asset already for the assignment to work.
Assigning `None` to clear the asset status is not allowed. Instead
`.asset_mark()` resp. `.asset_clear()` should be used. This limitation
is in place to simplify the API, and to ensure that there is only one
way in which assets are marked/cleared, making it easier to change the
internals of the asset system without API changes.
Example code:
```python
src = bpy.data.objects['Suzanne']
dst = bpy.data.objects['Cube']
dst.asset_mark()
dst.asset_data = src.asset_data
```
