The `lines_adjacency` IBO build in the GPU subdivision case was missing
edges at the boundaries of open meshes. As it is used for the shadow
pass, the shadows were then not clipped properly.
This would also make X-Ray mode render differently in those cases.
To fix this, we can simply reuse the buffer finalization routine from the
non-subdivision case, as such edges are handled there.
This evaluator is used in order to evaluate subdivision at render time, allowing for
faster renders of meshes with a subdivision surface modifier placed at the last
position in the modifier list.
When evaluating the subsurf modifier, we detect whether we can delegate evaluation
to the draw code. If so, the subdivision is first evaluated on the GPU using our own
custom evaluator (only the coarse data needs to be initially sent to the GPU), then,
buffers for the final `MeshBufferCache` are filled on the GPU using a set of
compute shaders. However, some buffers are still filled on the CPU side, if doing so
on the GPU is impractical (e.g. the line adjacency buffer used for x-ray, whose
logic is hardly GPU compatible).
This is done at the mesh buffer extraction level so that the result can be readily used
in the various OpenGL engines, without having to write custom geometry or tesselation
shaders.
We use our own subdivision evaluation shaders, instead of OpenSubDiv's vanilla one, in
order to control the data layout, and interpolation. For example, we store vertex colors
as compressed 16-bit integers, while OpenSubDiv's default evaluator only work for float
types.
In order to still access the modified geometry on the CPU side, for use in modifiers
or transform operators, a dedicated wrapper type is added `MESH_WRAPPER_TYPE_SUBD`.
Subdivision will be lazily evaluated via `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh` which will
create such a wrapper if possible. If the final subdivision surface is not needed on
the CPU side, `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh_no_subsurf` should be used.
Enabling or disabling GPU subdivision can be done through the user preferences (under
Viewport -> Subdivision).

The issue was caused by rB7e712b2d6a0d257d272ed35622b41d06274af8df
and the fact that `GPUMaterialTexture` contains an `ImageUser *` which
references the `ImageUser` on e.g. `NodeTexImage`.
Since the node tree update refactor, it is possible that the node tree changes
without changing the actual material. Therefore, either the renderer should
check if the node tree has changed or it should not store pointers to data in
node storage. The latter approach is implemented in this patch.

In the original design draw engines had to copy with a limitation that
they were not allowed to reuse complex data structures between drawing
calls. Data that could be reused were limited to:
- GPUFramebuffers
- GPUTextures
- Memory that could be removed calling MEM_freeN (storage list)
- DRWPass
This is fine when the storage list contains arrays or structs but when
more complex data types (vectors, maps) etc wasn't possible.
This patch adds instance_data that can be reused between drawing calls.
The instance_data is controlled by the draw engine and doesn't need to
be limited as described above.
When an engines stores instance_data it must implement the
`DrawEngineType.instance_free` callback to free the data.
The patch originates from eevee rewrite. But was added to master as the
image engine rewrite also has a need for it.

The problem is that drw_batch_cache_generate_requested_delayed
is called on the object, which uses the original object data type to
choose which data type to get info for. So for curves and text it uses
the incorrect type (not the evaluated mesh like we hardcoded in the
armature overlay code).
To fix this I hardcoded the "delayed" generation to only use the
evaluated mesh. Luckily it wasn't use elsewhere besides this
armature overlay system. That seems like the simplest fix for
3.0. A proper solution should rewrite this whole area anyway.

rBaa13c4b386b13111 added a check for the active object
in drawing code, but it missed adding a check for the active
base before trying to retrieve its object.
With instancing becoming more common with geometry nodes,
instances are less of a separate thing and more of an essential part
of evaluated data. Displaying them with a separate outline, while
helpful in some cases, is not worth the lack of visibility or confusion
about selected/active status. Information about the performance
of the scene due to instancing is always available with the statistics
like vertex count, etc.
The problems were compounded by the fact that the instancing
system is used to output geometry components that don't correspond
to the object's original type. So this patch also fixes that problem.

This reverts commit 03013d19d1.
This commit broke the windows build pretty badly and I don't
feel confident landing the fix for this without review.
Will post a possible fix in D12969 and we'll take it from there.
This adds generic attribute rendering support for meshes for Eevee and
Workbench. Each attribute is stored inside of the `MeshBufferList` as a
separate VBO, with a maximum of `GPU_MAX_ATTR` VBOs for consistency with
the GPU shader compilation code.
Since `DRW_MeshCDMask` is not general enough, attribute requests are
stored in new `DRW_AttributeRequest` structures inside of a convenient
`DRW_MeshAttributes` structure. The latter is used in a similar manner
as `DRW_MeshCDMask`, with the `MeshBatchCache` keeping track of needed,
used, and used-over-time attributes. Again, `GPU_MAX_ATTR` is used in
`DRW_MeshAttributes` to prevent too many attributes being used.
To ensure thread-safety when updating the used attributes list, a mutex
is added to the Mesh runtime. This mutex will also be used in the future
for other things when other part of the rendre pre-processing are multi-threaded.
`GPU_BATCH_VBO_MAX_LEN` was increased to 16 in order to accommodate for
this design.
Since `CD_PROP_COLOR` are a valid attribute type, sculpt vertex colors
are now handled using this system to avoid to complicate things. In the
future regular vertex colors will also use this. From this change, bit
operations for DRW_MeshCDMask are now using uint32_t (to match the
representation now used by the compiler).
Due to the difference in behavior for implicit type conversion for scalar types
between OpenGL and what users expect (a scalar `s` is converted to
`vec4(s, 0, 0, 1)` by OpenGL, vs. `vec4(s, s, s, 1)` in Blender's various node graphs) ,
all scalar types are using a float3 internally for now, which increases memory usage.
This will be resolved during or after the EEVEE rewrite as properly handling
this involves much deeper changes.

This scale factor can be introduced via the XR session settings base
scale, which allows a viewer to begin their session at a specific

This was caused by `DRW_view_data_texture_list_size_validate` which now
delete everything from the render engine.
This might change in the future but for now we just avoid calling it from
the render loop (when using DRW_cache_restart).
There were several places attempting to check to see if scene lights
and world were enabled for display. This tries to find a common place
for both of these to reduce duplication.
Honestly, I couldn't find a really good spot for these and settled on

related, but let's start here.

These 2 large tables, `areaTexBytes` and `searchTexBytes`, contributed
~176kb worth of duplicate data into the `blender` executable due to the
header being used in multiple places. We were lucky that only 2
translation units had included this header so only 1 duplicate copy of

Define the tables as `extern` to address this.

Adds VR controller visualization and custom drawing via draw
handlers. Add-ons can draw to the XR surface (headset display) and
mirror window by adding a View3D draw handler of region type 'XR' and
draw type 'POST_VIEW'. Controller drawing and custom overlays can be
toggled individually as XR session options, which will be added in a
future update to the VR Scene Inspection add-on.
For the actual drawing, the OpenXR XR_MSFT_controller_model extension
is used to load a glTF model provided by the XR runtime. The model's
vertex data is then used to create a GPUBatch in the XR session
state. Finally, this batch is drawn via the XR surface draw handler
mentioned above.
For runtimes that do not support the controller model extension, a
a simple fallback shape (sphere) is drawn instead.

Issue is that test cases re-uses draw manager. The new
`DRWRegisteredDrawEngine` struct is only freed when a
valid opengl context was found. what isn't the case
when running test cases.
Also made sure that re-using draw manager would use re-inited
values.
This is a necessary step for EEVEE's new arch. This moves more data
to the draw manager. This makes it easier to have the render or draw
engines manage their own data.
This makes more sense and cleans-up what the GPUViewport holds
Also rewrites the Texture pool manager to be in C++.
This also move the DefaultFramebuffer/TextureList and the engine related
data to a new `DRWViewData` struct. This struct manages the per view
(as in stereo view) engine data.
There is a bit of cleanup in the way the draw manager is setup.
We now use a temporary DRWData instead of creating a dummy viewport.
