The OBJ parser was primarily using StringRef for convenience, with
functions like "skip whitespace" or "parse a number" taking an input
stringref, representing an input line, and returning a new stringref,
representing the remainder of the line. This is convenient, but does
more work than strictly needed -- while parsing, only the "beginning"
of the line ever changes by moving forward; the end of the line
always stays the same. We can change the code to take a pair of
pointers (begin of line, end of line) as input, and make the
functions return the new begin of line pointer. This makes the return
value neatly fit into a processor register, which StringRef did not.
On Windows, this does result in non-trivial speedups in the actual
OBJ file parsing part, due to Windows calling convention where return
values larger than 64 bits are returned via memory. Does not
measurably affect performance on Mac/Linux, because the calling
convention there uses a pair of 64-bit registers to return a
StringRef.
End-to-end times of importing several test files, on Windows
(VS2022 build, Ryzen 5950X):
- Monkey subdivided to level 6, no normals (220MB file): 1.25s -> 0.85s
- Rungholt minecraft level (270MB file): 7.0s -> 5.8s
- Blender 3 splash scene (2.4GB file): 49.1s -> 45.5s
The full import process has a lot of other overhead besides actual
OBJ file parsing (mostly creating actual blender objects out of
parsed data). In pure parsing, in the monkey test scene above, the
parsing part goes 1.0s -> 0.6s.

Pattern is expected to be freely resized to any size, and the search
area s to become bigger when needed.
Remove confusing pattern size clamping which was actually clamping
search area.
There should be no functional changes.
There are two problems when adding a paint slot to an object without an
existing material. First, the `invoke` method creates a material on the
object. This modifies the object even if the operation is not executed.
Second, the fill color defaults to black when there is no existing
material (even when adding a normal, bump, or displacement layer).
This patch moves the material creation to the `exec` method.
When no material exists on the object, a default Principled BSDF is
referenced for default colors in the `invoke` method.

If merging is enabled, the mesh might be recreated before
the dirty flag can be cleared, which means the normals aren't
valid anymore. To fix this, clearing the dirty flag should happen
before the merging. This is an existing bug, just exposed by
more recent explicit dirty normal tagging.
In rare cases the mesh has not been evaluated when snapping, this fix
just prevents the crash as is done elsewhere in Blender when the
evaluated mesh isn't available, there is a separate report (T96536)
about evaluation not working properly.
This completes support for tiled texture packing on the Blender / Cycles
side of things.
Most of these changes fall into one of three categories:
- Updating Image handling code to pack/unpack tiled and multi-view images
- Updating Cycles to handle tiled textures through BlenderImageLoader
- Updating OSL to properly handle textures with multiple slots

Having to manually increase all other flag values to be able to add a
new internal flag is quite annoying. Just make space for a few more
once.
Generally I'd say internal flags are preferable, since it increases
encapsulation. So good to avoid making this a hassle.
Now add a default ".usdc" file extension if no (or the wrong) extension
is given instead of presenting the user with the error that "no suitable
USD plugin to write is found".
This is in line with how other exporters do this.

This patch adjusts the UI layouts for the tool header and the tool
properties in sculpt mode in a few ways. The goals are to better group
related settings, keep fundamental settings easily accessible, fix the
availability of some options, and make better use of space.
1. Remove ID template in tool header
2. Rename "Add Amount" to "Count" for add brush
3. Add "use pressure" toggles to radius and strength sliders
4. Move strength falloff to a popover
5. Move many "Add" brush settings to popover called "Curve Shape"
6. Move two "Grow/Shrink" options to a popover called "Scaling"
7. Don't display "Falloff" panel in properties when it has no effect

GLSL has different max number of ssbo per glsl stage.
This patch checks if the number of compute ssbo blocks matches
our requirements for the GPU Subdiv, before enabling it.
Some platforms allow more ssbo bindings then blocks per stage.

This is useful without any functionality specific to attribute domains,
rename to `BLI_str_format_decimal_unit` to follow naming of a similar
function `BLI_str_format_byte_unit`.
Geometry nodes can generate color attributes that aren't on point or corner domain.
When not found in these domains it will be processed as a common attribute.
Add a property to the **Shade Smooth** operator to quickly enable the Mesh `use_auto_smooth` option.
The `Angle` property is exposed in the **Adjust Last Operation** panel to make it easy to tweak on multiple objects without having to go to the Properties editor.
The operator is exposed in the `Object` menu and `Object Context Menu`.
=== Demo ===
{F13066173, size=full}
Regarding the implementation, there are multiple ways to go about this (like making a whole new operator altogether), but I think a property is the cleanest/simplest.
I imagine there are simpler ways to achieve this without duplicating the `use_auto_smooth` property in the operator itself (getting it from the Mesh props?), but I couldn't find other operators doing something similar.
