When blender is not focused and a selection is executed
with the mouse, since there is no conversion from `wl_fixed` to `int`,
the bounds of the selection can cause the selection box to be too large,
causing `draw_select_framebuffer_depth_only_setup` to fail when create
`g_select_buffer.texture_depth`.
Ref !109834
So that there is some lighting when there are no lights in the scene,
and black when there are lights. This matches the behavior of other
Hydra renderers.
Ref #96731
* Use pi factor to convert between radiant flux and intensity
* Mark lights as normalized on export
* Add spot light export support
* Add treatAsPoint support for import and export
* Empirically match normalized distant light
* Fix wrong unnormalized point/sphere/disk light unit in Cycles
Overall it should be much closer now for all light types. Point and distant
light units are inconsistent between renderers, so not possible to match
everything there.

This fixes the issue described in https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/108957.
Instead of modeling distant lights like a disk light at infinity, it models them as cones. This way, the radiance is constant across the entire range of directions that it covers.
For smaller angles, the difference is very subtle, but for very large angles it becomes obvious (here's the file from #108957, the angle is 179°):
| Old | New |
| - | - |
|  |  |
One notable detail is the sampling method: Using `sample_uniform_cone` can increase noise, since the sampling method no longer preserves the stratification of the samples. This is visible in the "light tree multi distant" test scene.
Turns out we can do better, and after a bit of testing I found a way to adapt the concentric Shirley mapping to uniform cone sampling. I hope the comment explains the logic behind it reasonably well.
Here's the result, note that even the noise distribution is the same when using the new sampling:
| Method | Old | New, basic sampling | New, concentric sampling |
| - | - |- | - |
| Image |  |  |  |
| Render time (at higher spp)| 9.03sec | 8.79sec | 8.96sec |
I'm not sure if I got the `light->normalized` handling right, since I don't really know what the expectation from Hydra is here.

The spotlight is now treated as a sphere instead of a view-aligned disk.
The implementation remains almost identical to that of a point light,
except for the spotlight attenuation and spot blend. There is no
attenuation inside the sphere. Ref #108505
Other changes include:
## Sampling
Instead of sampling the disk area, the new implementation samples either
the cone of the visible portion on the sphere or the spread cone, based
on which cone has a smaller solid angle. This reduces noise when the
spotlight has a large radius and a small spread angle.

## Texture
Spot light can now project texture using UV coordinates.

## Normalization
Previously, the normalization factor for the spotlight was \(\pi r^2\),
the area of a disk. This factor has been adjusted to \(4\pi r^2\) to
account for the surface area of a sphere. This change also affects point
light since they share the same kernel type.
## Versioning
Some pipeline uses the `Normal` socket of the Texture Coordinate node for
projection, because `ls->Ng` was set to the incoming direction at the
current shading point. Now that `ls->Ng` corresponds to the normal
direction of a point on the sphere (except when the radius is zero),
we replace these nodes with a combination of the Geometry shader node
and the Vector Transform node, which gives the same result as before.

This introduces an alias target `bf::intern::atomic` for
`bf_intern_atomic`. This has the following benefits:
- Any target name with `::` in it will be recognized as an actual
target by cmake, rather than a library name it may not know about.
and will be validated by cmake to exist. Which means if you make
a typo in the LIB section, CMake will error out telling you it
doesn't know about this specific target rather than passing it on
to the build system, where you'll either get build or linker errors
because of said typo.
- Given there is quite a cleanup still to do in the build system,
it won't always be obvious which targets have been updated to
modern targets and which still need to be done. Having a namespaced
target name is a good indicator there.

GHOST_ContextCGL used an incorrect compiler directive. When reading
the comment we could also remove it. In order to do the right thing
(fixing directive vs removing code) we opened this pull request to
ask feedback.

Replace `typedef struct X {} X;` with `struct X {};`
In some cases the first and last name didn't match although this
is rarely useful, even a typo in some cases, e.g. TrachPathPoint.
This is the minimal change required to start using modern CMake in the
blender build system. This change is designed to allow small
incremental changes to the build system rather than doing it in one
big bang which would be unmaintainable (for me)
The biggest functional change is, previously all libraries in the
`LIB` section of a `blender_add_lib` call had the `INTERFACE` scope,
which is rarely, if ever the correct scope. This diff changes this to
`PRIVATE`
Concrete implications of this diff :
The `LIB`, `INC` and `INC_SYS` sections of an `blender_add_lib` call
now allow scoping keywords (`PUBLIC`, `PRIVATE,` `INTERFACE`) to
declare the scope of the dependency.
Right now the only library using any modern cmake is
`bf_intern_atomic` which is an header only interface library that will
just advertise its include directories.
This allows us to clean up any `CMakeLists.txt` that adds
`../../../intern/atomic` to its `INC` section to remove it in `INC` by
adding a `PRIVATE bf_intern_atomic` to the `LIB` section.

- "Front"/"Back": 'put something at the front/back' or 'the front/back
face of something'. (e. g. the Empty Image options, Depth and Side
option, both use the same strings as enum, which should be avoided
in some languages).
- "Flip": invert, as in normals, or mirror, as in an image.
- "Path": a path to a resource, in general a file but sometimes a
datablock, as opposed to a trajectory in space.
- "Join": disambiguate for the Grease Pencil operator, which may use a
different word as that for meshes.
- "Wave": an ondulating motion, as opposed to a fluid dynamics motion.
- "Step": can mean the distance between two things, or a number of
times to do something. In this case it is better to use the plural.
- "Edge": generally the edges of a mesh, but can also mean edge
detection. Additionally, it was used for the option to enable
Freestyle. This was changed to "Use Freestyle".
- "Boundary": the limit of a grease pencil drawing for filling
purposes, as opposed to the external limit of a (non-manifold) mesh.
- "Rotations": can be translated to something like "Turns", in the
context of a spiral.

For repeat / extend / mirror mode, both wrap and read_clip functions did
the bounds check. Removing it improves performance between 0.5% and 1.5%
in the classroom scene in one test. Clip mode is unchanged.

The Voronoi Smooth F1 mode breaks when the Smoothness is 0 for OSL. This is
due to a zero division in the shader.
To fix this, standard F1 is used when Smoothness is 0.

During recent testing, the oldest 101.4032 (windows) and <25812 (linux)
drivers led to crashes during JIT compilation, so we bump the
requirement to newer 101.4313 and 25812.14 drivers that do incorporate
the required fixes.
