This patch implements the Z Combine node for the realtime compositor.
The patch also extends the SMAA implementation to work with float
textures as a prerequisite to the Z Combine implementation. Moreover, a
mechanism for computing multi-output operations was implemented, in
which unneeded outputs will allocate a dummy 1x1 texture for a correct
shader invocation, then those dummy textures will be cleaned up by
calling a routine right after evaluation.
This is different from the CPU implementation in that the while combine
mask is anti-aliased, including the alpha mask, which is not considered
in the CPU case.
The node can be implemented as a GPU shader operation when the
anti-aliasing option is disabled, which is something we should do when
the evaluator allows nodes be executed as both standard and GPU shader
operations.

#### Summary
Occlude edit mode selection behind objects in object mode.
#### Problem
When doing retopology, you want to be able to select your edit mesh,
but only when you can see it.
Being able to select geometry behind reference objects is not
desirable.
#### Solution
Make it so reference objects occlude selection, while the edit mesh is
pushed towards the view using retopology offset.
#### Limitations
Poly Build is not supported, because it doesn't use the depth buffer.
It behaves the same as normal, unoccluded by reference meshes.
#### Notes
Selection occlusion is not used when xray is enabled. This is
intentional.

There is no point in checking if the allocation of this relatively
small array was successful. We only do that in very few places,
but here it just adds unnecessary complexity.
Stored `ComponentIDKey` and `OperationIDKey` would still use string
references (char pointers) to data in related IDs, instead of using the
already locally stored std::string name of their matching `ComponentNode`
or `OperationNode` for that.
During undo, to reduce updates and speedup undo steps, a lot of IDs get
'replaced in place', i.e. new data read from the undo memfile is moved
into the existing 'old' ID memory address. And the depsgraph is also
re-used from the old BMain.
Calling `DEG_id_tag_update` and similar on the ID could then cause
depsgraph code to access freed memory from the 'old' data.
Joint effort with @sergey and the rest of the depsgraph team, thanks!
Issue caused by inconsistency in GPUFramebuffer viewport state
between Metal and OpenGL. The MTLFramebuffer code has been
modified such that framebuffer viewport/scissor state is retained
and only updated if attachments are modified during bind.
This is consistent with OpenGL. Previously, other updates to the
framebuffer in Metal would reset the viewport region, especially
if attachments were temporarily removed. This caused the color
picker selection to be misaligned.

Autosave files are created from memfile undo, which
doesn't save legacy mesh data. This leads to a crash
on file load.
In addition the mesh code can now add CustomData
layers when saving files, which did not work if
the original domain had no layers. In that case
CustomData.layers is NULL and DNA has nothing to
key off of when loading the file later.

CustomData_get_active_layer_index() was used by accident. But that
returns the CustomData layer index (in all layers) as opposed to
CustomData_get_active_layer(), which returns the active UV layer.

Check the specific case of `OP_IS_REPEAT_LAST` and recalculate
the orientation.
To that, pass the `OP_IS_REPEAT` and `OP_IS_REPEAT_LAST` flags as
inheritance to macro operators.
Force field absorption allows dampening of force fields by colliders, but it does not currently work when the scene only contains a rigid body simulation. It requires a particle simulation, cloth, dynamic paint, fluid sim, or softbodies for the feature to work correctly.
The reasons is that the effector function computing force field strength uses depsgraph relations to determine which colliders "absorb" the force field. If there are no dependencies between colliders and effectors registered in the depsgraph, the visibility function `eff_calc_visibility` does not add any absorption.
There is a function build_collision_relations which adds a dependency between the absorption object (the one with a collision modifier) and the forcefield object. It's currently only called by
1. Particle systems (DepsgraphRelationBuilder::add_particle_collision_relations)
2. Cloth, DynPaint, Fluid, and Softbody (DEG_add_collision_relations and indirectly through DEG_add_forcefield_relations).
The `DepsgraphRelationsBuilder` now adds the effector relations also when building rigid body relations.

Since e3801a2bd4, we would always respect
hiding for vertex paint and weight paint (drawing code and stroke based
painting), leaving an inconsistency between the different paintmodes.
To rectify this, now also always respect edit mode hiding for projection
painting as well.
Some feedback was gathered in #sculpt-paint-texture-module to ensure
this is desired behavior.
Note: this does not change the (experimental) texture painting in
sculptmode [this already respects hiding via PBVH, albeit in a manner
that bleeds into hidden faces if the brush center is over visible faces]

After investigating the crash logs it looked like the macro
unrolling wasn't working on Windows systems with these GPUs.
Macro unrolling was changed in order to cross compile to Metal and
in the future to Vulkan. The macro unrolling in OpenGL can be removed
by using a different naming scema.
This PR removes the macro unrolling by changing the generated GLSL
code:
**Before**
```
layout(std140) uniform _probe_block
{
ProbeBlock probe_block;
};
```
**After**
```
layout(std140) uniform probe_block
{
ProbeBlock _probe_block;
};
```
Some tweaks had to be done to the Eevee-shaders to make sure that
the macro unrolling is done correctly and could be compiled using
legacy opengl drivers.

Python has several different string types [0], each using a prefix to
indicate the type. Presently Blender's Text Editor / syntax highlighting
does not include the prefix as part of the string, which makes the
prefix appear as a syntax error. This patch looks for these prefixes,
and includes them with the string highlighting.
Note: prefixes can appear in either case (ex: f and F mean the same
thing), and some prefixes can be combined (ex: fr is a raw f-string).

The legacy conversion from MLoopUV to generic attributes used the
active and default layer names to copy the active/render status to the
new layers. But sometimes the names can change, and they weren't
updated in that case. Instead, store the active status with an index
into the names array (use an array instead of Vector for clarity).
fa0f295b53 exposed that there was a region missing because of some
faulty versioning.
The `fluid_motion_blur.blend` Cycles test file was crashing. Seems like
this is a pre 2.5 file that was resaved in newer versions, but the
preview region for the Sequencer was missing. Before mentioned commit,
the region would be broken when activating the preview view mode in the
Sequencer, now it would crash even on startup.
Ensure the region exists, as expected.
Introduces *ARegionType.poll()* as a way to dynamically add/remove a region. The region is still there internally, but is not accessible to the user.
Previously editors would to this manually, by either removing/adding regions altogether, or hiding them, unsetting their alignment (so no AZones are added I assume) and removing their event handlers. Polling makes this much simpler.
We plan to use this in #102879.
This patch refactors multiple editors to use region polling:
- File Browser
- Sequencer
- Clip Editor
- Preferences
Notes:
- Previously, editors would lazy-create some of the regions. Versioning is added here to ensure they are always there. Could be a separate patch.
- Some editors reuse a region in different display modes, and so additional work needs to be done to reinit regions they become available or the mode changes. Typically `V2D_IS_INIT` is unset for that, which isn't great. Could be improved, but not a new issue.
Behavior change:
- When the Preferences are opened as a regular editor, the "execution" region in the preferences that displays the *Save Preferences* button would still be there, but empty with a scrollbar.
This patch makes it disappear entirely.
## Implementation
- Introduces `ARegionType.poll()`
- Before a window is drawn, all contained regions have their poll checked, and the result is stored in a flag (`RGN_FLAG_POLL_FAILED` - runtime-only flag).
- If the result of the poll changes, the area is re-initialized and event handlers are added/removed.
- UI code checks the flag as needed.

Any errors from calling `bpy.ops.render.render(write_still=True)` would
be suppressed, making it impossible to know what went wrong.
Now the operator now reports errors when run via `exec` which mainly
occurs when the operator is called from scripts.
Interactively rendering via `invoke` is left as-is since users can see
the error in the UI and showing a popup error is disruptive.
The assets are required to build proper Blender release, so they can not be
skipped from packing.
The packing ignores the `working` directory as it seems to be big and sounds
that it is not needed for the release.
The assets are bundled under the `release/datafiles/assets` folder in the
blender sources. This is where they will reside after switch to the Git LFS.
