Especially through DRW_render.hh, there were a lot of unnecessary
includes almost everywhere in the module. This typically makes
dependencies less explicit and slows down compile times, so switch
to including what files actual use.

The code relied on `disable_depth_test` to render without depth testing
on selection, but it was set at pre-draw, so it was always false when
calling `res.select_bind` inside the sync code.
There was also no code to tell in-front and regular objects apart, so
in-front objects were not prioritized.
The previous engine seemingly divided the depth of In Front objects by
100, so I'm reproducing the same behavior here.

This was caused by querying on the selection state
before it is setup. It is only setup just before
the draw function.
To fix this, we sync the `info_buf` just before
drawing the overlays.
Also add some safety to avoid uninitialized memory.
Currently replacing the Mesh during evaluation with the object info node
can cause us to use invalid original indices when the source object is
in edit mode. This is really a more fundamental problem though: we have
no way to tell whether an evaluated mesh actually corresponds to the
object's original mesh.
This commit changes to explicitly propagating the edit mesh pointer
through copied and changed meshes during modifier and nodes evaluation,
instead of just blindly copying the edit mode pointer from the original
mesh to the evaluated mesh. A benefit of not writing to the evaluated
mesh means it can be shared, potentially offering a future performance
improvement for uses of the object info node.
When we detect an invalid correspondence between the evaluated/original
meshes, we skip extracting the cage mesh's data and skip extracting edit
mesh data from the evaluated object.
This commit also moves the source of "object is in edit mode" truth in
the draw module from whether the evaluated mesh has an edit mode pointer
to the object's mode flag. That's a simplification that's also helpful
to reduce the strong linking between BMesh and edit mode.

Allow passing range of resources inside the draw manager.
This allows to reduce the overhead of the drawing logic
for group of instances sharing the same drawing state.
The only catch is that we do consider them as having the
same handedness, which seems to be a valid assumption for
now.
For now this is not used and just change the API in a transparent
way to allow incremental changes to the engines code.

This changes the include directive to use the standard C preprocessor
`#include` directive.
The regex to applied to all glsl sources is:
`pragma BLENDER_REQUIRE\((\w+\.glsl)\)`
`include "$1"`
This allow C++ linter to parse the code and allow easier codebase
traversal.
However there is a small catch. While it does work like a standard
include directive when the code is treated as C++, it doesn't when
compiled by our shader backends. In this case, we still use our
dependency concatenation approach instead of file injection.
This means that included files will always be prepended when compiled
to GLSL and a file cannot be appended more than once.
This is why all GLSL lib file should have the `#pragma once` directive
and always be included at the start of the file.
These requirements are actually already enforced by our code-style
in practice.
On the implementation, the source needed to be mutated to comment
the `#pragma once` and `#include`. This is needed to avoid GLSL
compiler error out as this is an extension that not all vendor
supports.

Functional Changes:
- Custom shapes using empties now supports line width.
- Line width is supported on MacOS.
- Fixed Stick bone drawing on MacOS.
Some shaders are duplicated and ported to the new
primitive expansion API.
The legacy code inside `overlay_armature.cc` have been
guarded behind `NO_LEGACY_OVERLAY` which can
be enabled to make sure no legacy code is used unnoticed.
This allows for spotting more easily code that needs to be
ported. Moreover, it is easier to remove this legacy code
when the time comes.

Add back clipping using the same GL clip planes as before.
The difference is that the clip planes are now stored in the
`GlobalsUboStorage` instead of relying on another separate
UBO.
One annoyance of the current design is that the `overlay::Instance`
has to be created with the clipping state. This could be fixed later
by making the shader module a pointer instead of a reference.

The main motivation for this is that it's part of a fix for #113377,
where I want to propagate the edit mesh pointers through copied
meshes in modifiers and geometry nodes, instead of just setting the
edit mesh pointer at the end of the modifier stack. That would have
two main benefits:
1. We avoid the need to write to the evaluated mesh, after evaluation
which means it can be shared directly among evaluated objects.
2. When an object's mesh is completely replaced by the mesh from another
object during evaluation (with the object info node), the final edit
mesh pointer will not be "wrong", allowing us to skip index-mapped
GPU data extraction.
Beyond that, using a shared pointer just makes things more automatic.
Handling of edit mesh data is already complicated enough, this way some
of the worry and complexity can be handled by RAII.
One thing to keep in mind is that the edit mesh's BMesh is still freed
manually with `EDBM_mesh_free_data` when leaving edit mode. I figured
that was a more conservative approach for now. Maybe eventually that
could be handled automatically with RAII too.

The selection engine renders `uint` texture where each element of the
geometry is represented as an index.
When the geometry have modifiers, the original index was used for the
texture.
However this is not necessary for the select engine to work. The real
mesh indexes can be used in the texture and, only at the end, the
original index can be retrieved on the CPU itself.
Advantages of this approach:
- Optimizes the code to generate selection buffers.
- Makes the select id texture more informative as it identifies the
real elements instead of the original ones.

"Own" (the adjective) cannot be used on its own. It should be combined
with something like "its own", "our own", "her own", or "the object's own".
It also isn't used separately to mean something like "separate".
Also, "its own" is correct instead of "it's own" which is a misues of the verb.
The `object_to_world` and `world_to_object` matrices are set during
depsgraph evaluation, calculated from the object's animated location,
rotation, scale, parenting, and constraints. It's confusing and
unnecessary to store them with the original data in DNA.
This commit moves them to `ObjectRuntime` and moves the matrices to
use the C++ `float4x4` type, giving the potential for simplified code
using the C++ abstractions. The matrices are accessible with functions
on `Object` directly since they are used so commonly. Though for write
access, directly using the runtime struct is necessary.
The inverse `world_to_object` matrix is often calculated before it's
used, even though it's calculated as part of depsgraph evaluation.
Long term we might not want to store this in `ObjectRuntime` at all,
and just calculate it on demand. Or at least we should remove the
redundant calculations. That should be done separately though.

Now that the select engine data uses non-trivial objects in its global
data, storing it at the global scope causes trouble due to arbitrary
construction and destruction order. Instead use the construct on first use
idiom to make the order clear. Though this struct probably shouldn't be
static at all, it does simplify memory management as well, it's nice to
remove the need to manually clear the arrays.

Overall the transition to C++ in the draw module is awkwardly half
complete, but moving more code to a C++ namespace makes cleaning up
this code in other ways much easier, and the next C++ cleanup steps
are clear anyway.
Use the standard "elements_num" naming, and use the "corner" name rather
than the old "loop" name: `verts_num`, `edges_num`, and `corners_num`.
This matches the existing `faces_num` field which was already renamed.

"mesh" reads much better than "me" since "me" is a different word.
There's no reason to avoid using two more characters here. Replacing
all of these at once is better than encountering it repeatedly and
doing the same change bit by bit.
NDEBUG is part of the C standard and disables asserts. Only this will
now be used to decide if asserts are enabled.
DEBUG was a Blender specific define, that has now been removed.
_DEBUG is a Visual Studio define for builds in Debug configuration.
Blender defines this for all platforms. This is still used in a few
places in the draw code, and in external libraries Bullet and Mantaflow.
