This patch adds an integer identifier to nodes that doesn't change when
the node name changes. This identifier can be used by different systems
to reference a node. This may be important to store caches and simulation
states per node, because otherwise those would always be invalidated
when a node name changes.
Additionally, this kind of identifier could make some things more efficient,
because with it an integer is enough to identify a node and one does not
have to store the node name.
I observed a 10% improvement in evaluation time in a file with an extreme
number of simple math nodes, due to reduced logging overhead-- from
0.226s to 0.205s.

This exposes the fcurve cleanup from transform system to other callers
in anticipation to use it in the snapping operators.
It has been renamed from `posttrans_fcurve_clean` to
`BKE_fcurve_merge_duplicate_keys` to better describe what it does.
No functional change expected.

Two things here:
- fix ghash lookup from rB4d497721ecd1
-- this was looking in the wrong map (causing an assert on file load)
- set MovieTrackingObject active_plane_track to NULL upon deletion (same
as for regular tracks)
-- rBfe38715600c introduced a crash because `draw_tracking_tracks` would
still get an active plane track (logic for getting these changed)

The code I wrote to group triangles or multires quads that
belonging to single faces into single PBVH nodes had edge
cases that failed. The code is now much simpler and simply
assigns groups of primitives to nodes.
Materials now have an enum to set the emission sampling method, to be
either None, Auto, Front, Back or Front & Back. This replace the
previous "Multiple Importance Sample" option.
Auto is the new default, and uses a heuristic to estimate the emitted
light intensity to determine of the mesh should be considered as a light
for sampling. Shaders sometimes have a bit of emission but treating them
as a light source is not worth the memory/performance overhead.
The Front/Back settings are not important yet, but will help when a
light tree is added. In that case setting emission to Front only on
closed meshes can help ignore emission from inside the mesh interior that
does not contribute anything.

This cache was never written to, only "copied" between sockets in one
case, it dates back at least a decade. It doesn't make sense to store
caches on node trees directly anyway, since they can be used in
multiple places.
`done` was only used in one place, and `is_updating` was never read.
Generally we should avoid adding this sort of temporary data to longer
lived structs.
This commit essentially ensures before writing .blend file that only
actualy locally used linked IDs are tagged as `LIB_TAG_EXTERN` (and
therefore get a reference stored in the .blend file).
Previously, a linked ID tagged as directly linked would never get back
to the indirectly linked status. Consequence was a lot of 'needless'
references to linked data in .blend files.
This commit also introduces a new flag for lib_query ID usage types,
`IDWALK_CB_DIRECT_WEAK_LINK`, used currently for base's Object
pointer, and for LayerCollection's Collection pointer.
NOTE: A side-effect of this patch is that even IDs explicitely linked by
the user won't be kept anymore when writing files, i.e. they will not be
there anymore after a file reload, if they are not actually used.
Overhead of new process is below 0.1% in whole file saving process in
a Heist production file e.g.

Before rBa8a454287a27, edge creases were copied to the result mesh as
part of `MEdge`. Now they are stored in a separate `CD_CREASE` layer,
which I mistakenly disabled for interpolation. However, to maintain
the geometry node uses a field input, remove the interpolated attribute
there.
**Empty Slot Fix**
Currently the boolean modifier transfers the default material from
meshes with no materials and empty material slots to the faces on the
base mesh. I added this in a2d59b2dac9e for the sake of consistency,
but the behavior is actually not useful at all. The default empty
material isn't chosen by users, it just signifies "nothing," so when
it replaces a material chosen by users, it feels like a bug.
This commit corrects that behavior by only transferring materials from
non-empty material slots. The implementation is now consistent between
exact mode of the boolean modifier and the geometry node.
**Index-Based Option**
"Index-based" is the new default material method for the boolean
modifier, to access the old behavior from before the breaking commit.
a2d59b2dac9e actually broke some Boolean workflows fundamentally, since
it was important to set up matching slot indices on each operand. That
isn't the cleanest workflow, and it breaks when materials change
procedurally, but historically that hasn't been a problem. The
"transfer" behavior transfers all materials except for empty slots,
but the fundamental problem is that there isn't a good way to specify
the result materials besides using the slot indices.
Even then, the transfer option is a bit more intuitive and useful for
some simpler situations, and it allows accessing the behavior that has
been in 3.2 and 3.3 for a long time, so it's also left in as an option.
The geometry node doesn't get this new option, in the hope that we'll
find a better solution in the future.

Makes code safer, easier to understand, and less verbose. I detected
negligible performance differences, only a slight improvement for the
normalize step where the function call overhead was probably more
of a bottleneck.
I kept `memset` instead of `.fill(float3(0))` because that gave
better performance in my tests. In the future that stage could be
parallelized, or we could make sure new arrays are allocated with
`calloc`.
It's helpful to have these topology maps standardized and organized
a bit better so they can be optimized and considered for future caching
together. Also use a more standard name for the map for that purpose.
Fix a performance regression from 05952aa94d by storing pointers
to mesh arrays locally in the subdiv foreach context. In a simple test
of a 1 million face grid, this improved performance by 5% (from 0.31
to 0.295 seconds).
A utility function retrieved mesh arrays for every element after
05952aa94d which can be easily avoided. This was used when
building the GPU indices for sculpt mode drawing. In my tests this
saves 0.1ms per PBVH node. There may be very slight improvements
in line art and shrinkwrap as well.
The issue was that geometry nodes was not reevaluated after changing the
content of the collection. That resulted in the other object still having a
reference to the deleted object, which resulted in a crash when it tried to
access it.
Adding the `ID_RECALC_GEOMETRY` tag indicates that the content of the
collection has changed and will trigger geometry nodes setups that depend
on the collection to update.

# Process
In the pixel extraction process a larger domain will be extracted then the input mesh.
The borders of uv islands are extended with connected geometry of the input mesh.
The extended mesh is then fed into the pixel extraction process.
A mask is used to limit the extraction so UV islands will not overlap.

This patch doesn't include fixing uv seams at non-manifold edges (like suzannes eyes) as that
would require a different approach (edge extending or pixel copy-ing). The later has already been
implemented in D14702, but should be revisited to only use do the non-manifold edge fixing.
This patch supports fixing UV seams across UDIM textures.
There might be an issue when using a single texture on multiple uv maps.

Instead of creating a new mesh from scratch, modify an existing mesh.
This allows us to keep derived caches for triangulation and bounds
alive more easily, and allows keeping materials and non-generic
attributes like vertex groups alive on the mesh.
It also has other performance benefits, since face and face corner
attributes aren't affected at all, and because of reduced overhead
from not allocating a new mesh.
Updating edge attributes is a bit more complicated now, since we
have to completely replace the arrays but keep the existing attribute
IDs around. The new mesh update tag is also slightly too specific IMO.
But I think both of those things will improve in the future because
of existing plans for further refactoring these areas:
- New attribute storage that gives pointer stability
- Further use and granularity of mesh update tagging that will
make the correct API more clear

The main goal here is to move towards more self contained node
definitions. Previously, one would have to change `blenkernel` to
add a new node which is not necessary anymore. There is no need

Basically copy the information from the commit message of the
03e2f11d48 directly to the code.
This makes the information easier to find when working on the
code.
Swapping some ID lists between Mains must invalidate the name_map cache.
Note that in theory, at least WM type could be ignored by name_map
cache, since it is a singleton. However, don't think it's worth adding
extra complication here, for really marginal benefits. The overhead of
rebuilding the name cache here is extremly small.
For some reason, this issue did not show so far in master, only appeared
in some branch work on improving (in)direct status of linked IDs... Go
figure.
a5e7657cee didn't account for slices of zero sizes, and the asserts
were slightly incorrect otherwise. Also, the change didn't apply to
`Span`, only `MutableSpan`, which was a mistake. This also adds "safe"
methods to `IndexMask`, and switches function calls where necessary.
This is not used for anything in practice currently. The original intention
was probably to generate different socket subtypes, but that is solved
differently now (e.g. using `NodeSocketFloatDistance`). It's possible
that an addon tried to use this but it's rather unlikely.

(Probably requires ASan for a reliable crash.)
Steps to reproduce were:
* Enter Geometry Nodes Workspace
* Press "New" button in the geometry nodes editor header
* Right-click the data-block selector -> "Mark as Asset"
* Change 3D View to Asset Browser
* Create a catalog
* Drag new Geometry Nodes asset into the catalog
* Save the file
* Press Shift+A in the geometry nodes editor
There was a general issue here with keeping catalog pointers around
during the add menu building. The way it does things, catalogs may be
reloaded in between.
Since the Current File asset library isn't loaded in a separate thread,
the use-after-free would always happen in between. For other libraries
it could still happen, but apparently didn't by chance.
