This commit makes using (most of) `BKE_report` API safe in
multi-threaded situation.
This is achieved by adding a `std::mutex` lock to the `ReportList`
struct (in a slightly convoluted way unfortunately, due to this being a
DNA struct). This lock is then used to make most operations on
`Reportlist` data thread-safe.
Note that while working on this, a few other minor issues aroze in
existing usages of Reportlist by the WM code, mainly the fact that
`wm_init_reports` and `wm_free_reports` were both useless:
- init was called in a context where there is not yet any WM, so it
was doing nothing.
- free was called on a WM that would be later freed (as part of Main
freeing), which would also call cleanup code for its `reports` data.
Both have been removed.
Further more, `wm_add_default` (which is the only place where a WM ID is
created) did not initialize properly it reports data, this has been
fixed.
This change is related to the wmJob thread-safety tasks and PRs (#112537,
!113548).

Update to the new naming convention for `Light Probes`:
`Reflection Cubemap` -> `Sphere`
`Reflection Plane` -> `Plane`
`Irradiance Grid` -> `Volume`
Note that this breaks the Python API (`bpy.types.LightProbe.type`).

Move the three current 'status variables' (stop, update and progress)
into a single 'WorkerStatus' struct. This is cleaner and will allow for
future workin this area without having to edit tens of 'startjob'
callbacks signatures all the time.
No functional change expected here.
Note: jobs' specific internal code has been modified as little as
possible, in many cases the job's own data still just store pointers to
these three values. Ideally in the future more refactor will be using a
single pointer to the shared `wmJobWorkerStatus` data instead.

For text objects, the CharInfo mat_nr material index used to start at 1
(not at zero like for meshes or nurbs).
Code was mostly considering this (but not in all places, so material
index handling (removing/moving) could still go wrong.
As an alternative to !109746 (where it was made sure all places would
make the right assumption about mat_nr starting at 1), this PR now
changes the mat_nr to be zero-based.
This is more in line with other places handling material indices.
Versioning code is in place to properly convert old files.

- Add IDP_EnsureProperties,
- Remove create_if_needed argument from IDP_GetProperties.
Split access & creation so intention reads more clearly without
looking up function arguments.
This issue specifically happend if sound playback is synchronized by
Audaspace. In this case render engine can't override current frame.
`BKE_sound_sync_scene()` should return NaN as when rendering is in
progress, however viewport render operator doesn't set `G.is_rendering`.

There are a couple of functions that create rna pointers. For example
`RNA_main_pointer_create` and `RNA_pointer_create`. Currently, those
take an output parameter `r_ptr` as last argument. This patch changes
it so that the functions actually return a` PointerRNA` instead of using
the output parameters.
This has a few benefits:
* Output parameters should only be used when there is an actual benefit.
Otherwise, one should default to returning the value.
* It's simpler to use the API in the large majority of cases (note that this
patch reduces the number of lines of code).
* It allows the `PointerRNA` to be const on the call-site, if that is desired.
No performance regression has been measured in production files.
If one of these functions happened to be called in a hot loop where
there is a regression, the solution should be to use an inline function
there which allows the compiler to optimize it even better.

Previously, BKE level preview image code was in `BKE_icons.h` and `icons.hh`.
While these types are related, I always found this quite hard to navigate since
preview image stuff was just in the middle of icon functions. Plus, people
don't expect preview image functions in icon files, the relationship is not
obvious.
Instead, use focused files that make it easy to quickly navigate them
and see what they are dealing with.

This commit disambiguates the following messages:
- Sequencer effect strip types: use "Sequence" context in relevant
places, as that is already extracted as part of the
`sequencer_prop_effect_types` enum, and more specific.
- "Language" (a natural or programming language)
- "Flat" (gender)
- "Smooth" (action or amount -- very partial disambiguation for now
because this is all over the place)
It also extracts these messages:
- Newly created Freestyle data
- LineStyle
- LineSet
- Modifiers
- "Registering panel class:" error message from RNA registration
- "Node must be run as tool" error message from tool geometry nodes

The hash tables and vector blenlib headers were pulling many more
headers than they actually need, including the C base math header,
our C string API header, and the StringRef header. All of this
potentially slows down compilation and polutes autocomplete
with unrelated information.
Also remove the `ListBase` constructor for `Vector`. It wasn't used
much, and making it easy to use `ListBase` isn't worth it for the
same reasons mentioned above.
It turns out a lot of files depended on indirect includes of
`BLI_string.h` and `BLI_listbase.h`, so those are fixed here.

Previously we'd just allocate extra space for additional data for the
deferred loading, and then do pointer arithmetic to access that data.
This is cryptic and not type safe.
Instead, use an internal type deriving from `PreviewImage`, and manage
that internally. This ensures type safety, while keeping this as
implementation detail (not visible outside of the preview image API) and
keeping internals easy to understand.
Some code did shallow copies of preview images, making ownership
unclear. That made things a bit tricky, but I've made support for
shallow copies explicit now and noted this in comments.
Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
With the end goal of simplifying ownership and memory management,
and allowing the use of `get_name` in contexts without statically
allocated strings, use `std::string` for the return values of these two
operator type callbacks instead of `const char *` and `char *`.
In the meantime things get uglier in some places. I'd expect `std::string`
to be used more in the future elsewhere in Blender though.

Using ClangBuildAnalyzer on the whole Blender build, it was pointing
out that BLI_math.h is the heaviest "header hub" (i.e. non tiny file
that is included a lot).
However, there's very little (actually zero) source files in Blender
that need "all the math" (base, colors, vectors, matrices,
quaternions, intersection, interpolation, statistics, solvers and
time). A common use case is source files needing just vectors, or
just vectors & matrices, or just colors etc. Actually, 181 files
were including the whole math thing without needing it at all.
This change removes BLI_math.h completely, and instead in all the
places that need it, includes BLI_math_vector.h or BLI_math_color.h
and so on.
Change from that:
- BLI_math_color.h was included 1399 times -> now 408 (took 114.0sec
to parse -> now 36.3sec)
- BLI_simd.h 1403 -> 418 (109.7sec -> 34.9sec).
Full rebuild of Blender (Apple M1, Xcode, RelWithDebInfo) is not
affected much (342sec -> 334sec). Most of benefit would be when
someone's changing BLI_simd.h or BLI_math_color.h or similar files,
that now there's 3x fewer files result in a recompile.

First implementation of node previews in the shader node editor. Using
the same user interface as compositor node previews, most shader nodes
can now be previewed (except group in/output and material output).
This is currently still an experimental feature, as polishing of the
user experience and performance improvements are planned. These will
be easier to do as incremental changes on this implementation.
See #110353 for details on the work that remains to be done and known
limitations.
Implementation notes:
We take advantage of the `RenderResult` available as `ImBuf` images to
store a `Render` for every viewed nested node tree present in a
`SpaceNode`. The computation is initiated at the moment of drawing nodes
overlays.
One render is started for the current nodetree, having a `ViewLayer`
associated with each previewed node. We separate the previewed nodes in
two categories: the shader ones and the non-shader ones.
- For non-shader nodes, we use AOVs which highly speed up the rendering
process by rendering every non-shader nodes at the same time. They are
rendered in the first `ViewLayer`.
- For shader nodes, we render them each in a different `ViewLayer`, by
rerouting the node to the output of the material in the preview scene.
The preview scene takes the same aspect as the Material preview scene,
and the same preview object is used.
At the moment of drawing the node overlay, we take the `Render` of the
viewed node tree and extract the `ImBuf` of the wanted viewlayer/pass
for each previewed node.

- Rename find_area_showing_r_result -> *find_area_showing_render_result.
- Only set the return window argument when the render area is found
instead of leaving this value set to the last window.
- Use doxygen sections.
Historically, the OCIO based color management implementation in Blender
had exceptions to treat specific configurations differently. It was a
compatibility with the legacy "No color management" option.
With time and more development in the area there are better ways of
achieving this goal, if needed.
This commit removes the named-based exception, which also solves confusion
about why certain similar configurations (from OCIO stand point) give
different results. As well as allows to create a cleaner plate for an
upcoming additions in the OCIO configuration such as AgX.
Quite simple and technical change which constant-folds the check for
whether the scene color management enabled or not with "true" value.

The cleanup of blenkernel last weeks , caused the house of cards to
collapse on top of bf_gpu's shader_builder, which is off by default
but used on a daily basis by the rendering team.
Given the fixes forward in #110394 ran into a ODR violation in OSL that
was hiding there for years, I don't see another way forward without
impeding the rendering teams productivity for "quite a while" as there
is no guarantee the OSL issue would be the end of it.
the only way forward appears to be back.

The problematic commit was 07fe6c5a57
as blenkernel links most of blender, it's a bit of a link order issue
magnet. Given all these commits stack, it's near impossible to revert
just that one without spending a significant amount of time resolving
merge conflicts. 99% of that work was automated, so easier to just
revert all of them, and re-do the work, than it is to deal with the
merge conflicts.
