Apply a change similar to e130903060 for
`parallel_reduce`, just like `parallel_for`. I measured a performance
improvement in viewport FPS of at least 10% with 1 million small

This patch adds a float3x3 class that represents a 3x3 matrix. The class
can be used to represent a 2D affine transformation stored in a 3x3
matrix in column major order. The class provides various constructors
and processing methods, which utilizes the existing mat3 utilities in
BLI. Corresponding tests were also added.
This is needed by the upcoming viewport compositor to represent domain
transformations.

Inspired by D12936 and D12929, this patch adds general purpose
"Combine Color" and "Separate Color" nodes to Geometry, Compositor,
Shader and Texture nodes.
- Within Geometry Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB" and
"Separate RGB" nodes.
- Within Compositor Nodes, it replaces the existing
"Combine RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA" and "Separate RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA"
nodes.
- Within Texture Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGBA" and
"Separate RGBA" nodes.
- Within Shader Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB/HSV" and
"Separate RGB/HSV" nodes.
Python addons have not been updated to the new nodes yet.
**New shader code**
In node_color.h, color.h and gpu_shader_material_color_util.glsl,
missing methods hsl_to_rgb and rgb_to_hsl are added by directly
converting existing C code. They always produce the same result.
**Old code**
As requested by T96219, old nodes still exist but are not displayed in
the add menu. This means Python scripts can still create them as usual.
Otherwise, versioning replaces the old nodes with the new nodes when
opening .blend files.

Goals:
* Better high level control over where devirtualization occurs. There is always
a trade-off between performance and compile-time/binary-size.
* Simplify using array devirtualization.
* Better performance for cases where devirtualization wasn't used before.
Many geometry nodes accept fields as inputs. Internally, that means that the
execution functions have to accept so called "virtual arrays" as inputs. Those
can be e.g. actual arrays, just single values, or lazily computed arrays.
Due to these different possible virtual arrays implementations, access to
individual elements is slower than it would be if everything was just a normal
array (access does through a virtual function call). For more complex execution
functions, this overhead does not matter, but for small functions (like a simple
addition) it very much does. The virtual function call also prevents the compiler
from doing some optimizations (e.g. loop unrolling and inserting simd instructions).
The solution is to "devirtualize" the virtual arrays for small functions where the
overhead is measurable. Essentially, the function is generated many times with
different array types as input. Then there is a run-time dispatch that calls the
best implementation. We have been doing devirtualization in e.g. math nodes
for a long time already. This patch just generalizes the concept and makes it
easier to control. It also makes it easier to investigate the different trade-offs
when it comes to devirtualization.
Nodes that we've optimized using devirtualization before didn't get a speedup.
However, a couple of nodes are using devirtualization now, that didn't before.
Those got a 2-4x speedup in common cases.

This macro allows defining a default argument for when the translation
unit is compiled in C++. Otherwise (in C), the argument has to be passed
explicitly.
A couple of benefits:
* Default arguments are a nice quality-of-life feature in C++. It's
annoying if these can't be used in C++ files, just because the header
with the function declaration still needs to be C compatible.
* Adds useful information to the API declaration. E.g. that an argument
can be nullptr.
* Should help us to move to using default arguments more, helping
readability (arguably)

Since {rBeae36be372a6b16ee3e76eff0485a47da4f3c230} the distinction
between float and byte colors is more explicit in the ui. So far, geometry
nodes couldn't really deal with byte colors in general. This patch fixes that.
There is still only one color socket, which contains float colors. Conversion
to and from byte colors is done when read from or writing to attributes.
* Support writing to byte color attributes in Store Named Attribute node.
* Support converting to/from byte color in attribute conversion operator.
* Support propagating byte color attributes.
* Add all the implicit conversions from byte colors to the other types.
* Display byte colors as integers in spreadsheet.

- Verrtex paint mode has been refactored into C++ templates.
It now works with both byte and float colors and point
& corner attribute domains.
- There is a new API for mixing colors (also based
on C++ templates). Unlike the existing APIs byte
and float colors are interpolated identically.
Interpolation does happen in a squared rgb space,
this may be changed in the future.
- Vertex paint now uses the sculpt undo system.

This commit changes the Curve to Mesh node to work with `Curves`
instead of `CurveEval`. The change ends up basically completely
rewriting the node, since the different attribute storage means that
the decisions made previously don't make much sense anymore.
The main loops are now "for each attribute: for each curve combination"
rather than the other way around, with the goal of taking advantage
of the locality of curve attributes. This improvement is quite
noticeable with many small curves; I measured a 4-5x improvement
(around 4-5s to <1s) when converting millions of curves to tens of
millions of faces. I didn't obverse any change in performance compared
to 3.1 with fewer curves though.
The changes also solve an algorithmic flaw where any interpolated
attributes would be evaluated for every curve combination instead
of just once per curve. This can be a large improvement when there
are many profile curves.
The code relies heavily on a function `foreach_curve_combination`
which calculates some basic information about each combination and
calls a templated function. I made assumptions about unnecessary reads
being removed by compiler optimizations. For further performance
improvements in the future that might be an area to investigate.
Another might be using a "for a group of curves: for each attribute:
for each curve" pattern to increase the locality of memory access.

lengths along a set of points. This can be used for the sample curves
node, or finding new points along a curve when extending
or shrinking it.
This commit uses it in the snake hook brush as an example.
The logic is similar to the uniform length sampling, but the next
sample length is retrieved from the input instead of multiplication.
For the sample node in the future, though this sort of sampling can be
potentially done more efficiently for specific curve types besides
poly curves, it's simpler, at least as a start, to work on a set of
evaluated points that can be treated like a poly curve.

adds multi-threading for better performance.
Method which overrides a base class's virtual methods are expetced to

about what is going on.
This does two things:
* Introduce new `materialize_compressed` methods. Those are used
when the dst array should not have any gaps.
* Add materialize methods in various classes where they were missing
(and therefore caused overhead, because slower fallbacks had to be used).
This adds a new Grow/Shrink brush which is similar to the Length
brush in the old hair system.
* It's possible to switch between growing and shrinking by hold
down ctrl and/or by changing the direction enum.
* 3d brush is supported.
* Different brush falloffs are supported.
* Supports scaling curves uniformly or shrinking/extrapolating
them. Extrapolation is linear only in this patch.
* A minimum length settings helps to avoid creating zero-sized curves.

This commit re-implements the resample curve node to use the new curves
type instead of CurveEval. The largest changes come from the need to
keep track of offsets into the point attribute arrays, and the fact
that the attributes for all curves are stored in a flat array.
Another difference is that a bit more of the logic is handled by
building of the field network inputs. The idea is to let the field
evaluator handle potential optimizations while making the rest of the
code simpler.
When resampling 1 million small poly curves,the node is about 6

This commit adds calculation of lengths along the curve for each

parameter" node, and potentially more places in the future.
This commit also includes a utility for calculation of uniform samples
in blenlib. It can find evenlyspaced samples along a sequence of points
and use linear interpolation to move data from those points to the
samples. Making the utility more general aligns better with the more
functional approach of the new curves code and makes the behavior
available elsewhere.
A "color math" header is added to allow very basic interpolation
between two colors in the `blender::math` namespace.

Previously, those methods would destruct and reconstruct
the data structure. While that was more simple in initial
implementation, it has some downsides which are not resolved:
* Already allocated memory is lost. So new memory would have
to be allocated when the data structure is refilled.
* The clearing process itself was slower because it did unnecessary
work.
