NOTE: This also required some changes to Cycles code itself, who is now
directly including `BKE_image.hh` instead of declaring a few prototypes
of these functions in its `blender/utils.h` header (due to C++ functions
names mangling, this was not working anymore).

This commits fixes a bug where the new macOS Image Editor image copy
paste feature was correctly pasting images from macOS to Blender, but
wrongly copying image from Blender to other software upside-down.
This was fixed by porting the row inversion logic present in
GHOST_SystemCocoa::getClipboardImage to the putClipboardImage function.

This change makes it so only kernels of the same vendor are compiled in
parallel. For example for the release builds it will be:
1. All CUDA kernels
2. All OptiX kernels
3. All HIP kernels
4. All OneAPI kernels
This potentially leads to a lower CPU utilization, but it makes it much
easier to manage memory usage and tweak per-vendor concurrency.
The goal of this change is to solve occasional out-of-memory during the
GPU kernels compilation step on the CI/CD farm.
This change also includes tweaks to the prallel jobs for HIP-RT and
oneAPI. The tweak is based on measuring apparent memory usage peak on
Linux when doing single-thread compilation, and giving some safe margin
from the available memory on the buildbot.

Don't try to use MetalRT by default unless the device explicitly reports that RT is supported. We shouldn't just rely on an assumption that it's supported for M3 and beyond, ad infinitum.

6c03339e48 moved from
rtcSetNewGeometryBuffer to rtcSetSharedGeometryBuffer but kept the
additional padding of 1 element in the function call.
It was previously used for over-allocating, to allow 16-byte reads of
all accessed elements, as Embree requires.
With rtcSetSharedGeometryBuffer, this argument led to an out-of-bounds
read as memory was already allocated without padding.
float3 is already 16-bytes so there is no need for padding, hence we
remove it.
We can also note that now, even when using rtcSetSharedGeometryBuffer,
over-allocating is not needed as it's done and functional on Embree side
since v3.6.

This commit adds Epoxy as an explicit library requirement for
`intern/opensubdiv`, which uses it in `gl_compute_evaluator.cc`.
This fixes build errors where lite builds that additionally enabled
OpenSubdiv would fail to link due to missing Epoxy symbols. This
problem did not occur in regular release builds due to other CMake
modules adding Epoxy to the library link path in place of OpenSubdiv.

Running Xcode memory graphs and the Instruments tools revealed
memory leaks caused, in the main, by over-retained objects.
This removes the unnecessary 'retains' and adds some asserts
to guard against over-retaining in the future.
There are a few memory leaks remaining involving PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8
but I am unable to identify the cause of these at this time.

Changing 3D curve properties while viewport rendering was active
resulted in an error, because Cycles would attempt to update the
acceleration structure containing the curves, but that acceleration
structure was built without the
`OPTIX_BUILD_FLAG_ALLOW_UPDATE` flag allowing updates. This
fixes that by adding the flag to all curve build inputs.
Ideally could just use the same flags as for other build inputs and
differentiate between viewport and final rendering (based on
`bvh_type`), but that's not currently an option since the same flags
have to be specified to query the curve intersection module in
`load_kernels()`, where that differentiation is not known. See also
commit 5c6053ccb1.

This commit removes support for Vega GPUs from the AMD HIP backend of
Cycles. This is being done as:
- AMD no longer provides official support for Vega GPUs in their
ROCm software.
- Vega GPUs have rendering artifacts on all supported platforms,
and as a result of the reduction of support from AMD, are unlikely
to be fixed. Rendering artifacts include.
- The incorrect shading of volumes (Windows and Linux)
- Missing intersections on many meshes with HIPRT
- Crashing rendering subsurface scattering materials (Linux)
- And more.

In volume segment, the minimal angle formed by the emitter bounding cone
axis and the vector pointing from the cluster centroid to any point on
the ray is computed via `dot(bcone.axis, point_to_centroid)`, see Fig.8.
in paper.
For distant light this angle is 0, but due to numerical issues this is
not always true. Therefore explicitly assign `-bcone.axis` to
`point_to_centroid` in this case.

Looks like some recent changes in the driver broke an assumption
the OptiX denoiser code in Cycles made about being able to set it up
with a different input size than later used to invoke it, which caused
broken output on older GPU architectures. This commit fixes that by
ensuring the input image size passed to `optixDenoiserSetup` matches
that passed to `optixDenoiserInvoke`, even when no tiling is used
(which is the common case).

This PR fixes a latent issue arising from invalid use of `accept_any_intersection(true)` when performing SSS ray-stepping with MetalRT. The comment incorrectly states that "we can optimize and accept the first hit", but to guarantee correct behaviour in future we need to request the closest hit.
Draine phase function sampling internally use Henyey-Greenstein and
Rayleigh sampling for degenerated cases, but the sampling pattern was
different between Draine and Rayleigh. The commit effectively replace

When `g == 0`, the Draine phase function from
https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202142437 simplifies to
\[\Phi(\theta)=\frac{3}{4\pi(3+\alpha)}(1+\alpha\cos^2\theta).\]
Similar as Rayleigh sampling in https://doi.org/10.1364/JOSAA.28.002436,
The solution to the CDF of the marginal density function is
\[\cos^3\theta+a\cos\theta+b=0,\]
with
\[a=\frac{3}{\alpha},\quad b=\frac{3+\alpha}{\alpha}(2\xi_1-1),\]
which has only one real root since \(\alpha > 0\),
resulting in the sample technique
\[\cos\theta=u-\frac{1}{\alpha u}.\]

Fix the failing rendering of volumes on Windows with HIP SDK 6.1

There should be no functional or performance difference for the average
user as the Blender foundation currently does not use HIP SDK 6.1
on Windows. This change is primarily to fix issues for community members
building Blender locally.

Previously, in case of a failure during BVH transfer, when running out
of memory for example, we could get an error such as "BVH failed to
migrate to the GPU due to Embree library error (no error)", because
embree error status was actually reset before being queried.
This commit fixes its propagation.

Multiple threads can access the same device queue from different

This probably should always have been the value used, really.

Dropping files could crash ~10% of the time on some systems,
although I wasn't able to reproduce the error.
The ownership of GWL_Seat::data_offer_dnd wasn't handled correctly,
where the value could be handled by both wl_data_device_listener::leave
& drop callbacks.
Resolve by ensuring the data-offer is handled by the drop callback.
getpwuid for accessing home wasn't used when looking up the path
for older Blender versions. There is no reason for the code-paths
to differ. Use a shared utility function to access home.
This was already done in GHOST, but not BKE_appdir_folder_home.
Also null check the return value from getpwuid() as it's not
guaranteed to be non-null.
Fixes a issue where the Principled BSDF would render incorrectly if
`__SUBSURFACE__` is off. Which is common when using adaptive kernel
compilation (a unsupported Cycles feature).

Turns out it is possible to have code to pick up wrong class
when defining a friend:
```
intern\cycles\device/memory.h(255): warning C4099: 'GPUDevice': type name first seen using 'struct' now seen using 'class'
source\blender\gpu\GPU_platform.hh(69): note: see declaration of 'GPUDevice'
```
Now made it so the classes have forward declaration in the CCL
namespace, avoiding possible conflict with the classes with the
same name in the global namespace.

This adds feature parity with Cycles regarding light and shadow liking.
Technically, this extends the GBuffer header to 32 bits, and uses
the top bits to store the object's light set membership index.
The same index is also added to `ObjectInfo` in place of padding bytes.
For shadow linking, the shadow blocker sets bitmask is stored per
tilemap. It is then used during the GPU culling phase to cull objects
that do not belong to the shadow's sets.

Previously, Cycles only supported the Henyey-Greenstein phase function for volume scattering.
While HG is flexible and works for a wide range of effects, sometimes a more physically accurate
phase function may be needed for realism.
Therefore, this adds three new phase functions to the code:
Rayleigh: For particles with a size below the wavelength of light, mostly athmospheric scattering.
Fournier-Forand: For realistic underwater scattering.
Draine: Fairly specific on its own (mostly for interstellar dust), but useful for the next entry.
Mie: Approximates Mie scattering in water droplets using a mix of Draine and HG phase functions.
These phase functions can be combined using Mix nodes as usual.

This PR introduces support for the extension `VK_KHR_fragment_shader_barycentric`,
and includes a few miscellaneous improvements related to it.
1. Add support for `VK_KHR_fragment_shader_barycentric`, if the physical device
supports it. Otherwise, gpu_BaryCoord is generated through an injected geom
shader, like it was previously.
2. Simplify the logic of checking has_geometry_stage in vert shader.
3. Fix a potential issue of location mismatch in an injected geom shader.

This enables most of the GPU compiler's optimizations while -ffast-math
isn't set at DPC++ level.
It brings an overall 1% speedup and currently doesn't change the unit
tests pass rate.
This enables three additional math optimizations:
-ffp-contract=fast (enables FMA generation)
-freciprocal-math (enables x/y -> x*(1/y))
-fassociative-math (enables e.g. a*b + c*b -> (a+c)*b)
These are used on Windows and HIP anyways, so our code can't expect exact IEEE
semantics in any case.
The only difference between the new set and -ffast-math is that we don't use
-ffinite-math-only since this causes issues with the BVH (see ce1f2e271d) and
breaks e.g. isnan.
This causes a ~1.5% speedup in my very quick test, but might be higher for some
more math-intensive cases.
