This flag specifies that even when the socket is not connected,
the node should not display the input field for the constant input
value. This is useful for inputs like Normal, which have special
handling for the missing input case and don't use a constant value.
Currently there is no way to change this flag from Python, and
through UI it can only be done by re-creating the socket.
This patch exposes the flag through RNA and UI, makes sure it
is properly updated when changed, and adds special handling to
ensure that it is correctly set when creating a node group from
a node set that includes reroute nodes.

The hardcoded age limit is now gone. The behavior can be implemented
with an Age Reached Event and Kill Particle node. Other utility nodes
to handle age limits of particles can be added later. Adding an
Age Limit attribute to particles on birth will be useful for some effects,
e.g. when you want to control the color or size of a particle over its
life time.
The Random Float node takes a seed currently. Different nodes will
produce different values even with the same seed. However, the same
node will generate the same random number for the same seed every
time. The "Hash" of a particle can be used as seed. Later, we'd want
to have more modes in the node to make it more user friendly.
Modes could be: Per Particle, Per Time, Per Particle Per Time,
Per Node Instance, ...
Also a Random Vector node will be useful, as it currently has to be
build using three Random Float nodes.
The abbreviation 'init' is brief, unambiguous and already used
in thousands of places, also initialize is often accidentally
written with British spelling.

This is also a bit of code cleanup, reorganisation.
Tried to be DRYed but avoid too much code change to (hopefully) minimize
breakage.

The following nodes work now (although things can still be improved of course):
Particle Birth Event, Praticle Time Step Event, Set Particle Attribute and Execute Condition.
Multiple Set Particle Attribute nodes can be chained using the "Execute" sockets.
They will be executed from left to right.
This operator automates the following steps:
1. Create a point cloud object.
2. Create a simulation data block.
3. Add a small particle simulation to the node tree.
4. Add a Simulation modifier to the point cloud object.
5. Reference the particle simulation from the modifier.
You have to go back to frame 1 to start the simulation.
The simulation is not yet cached and cannot be rendered.
The bounding box of the point cloud object is enabled for now,
because otherwise it is hard to select the object.
This is a convenience wrapper for `Map<Key, Vector<Value>>`.
It does not provide any performance benefits (yet). I need this
kind of map in a couple of places and before I was duplicating
the lookup logic in many places.
Object sockets work now, but only the new Object Transforms and the
Particle Mesh Emitter node use it. The emitter does not actually
use the mesh surface yet. Instead, new particles are just emitted around
the origin of the object.
Internally, handles to object data blocks are passed around in the network,
instead of raw object pointers. Using handles has a couple of benefits:
* The caller of the function has control over which handles can be resolved
and therefore limit access to specific data. The set of data blocks that
is accessed by a node tree should be known statically. This is necessary
for a proper integration with the dependency graph.
* When the pointer to an object changes (e.g. after restarting Blender),
all handles are still valid.
* When an object is deleted, the handle is invalidated without causing crashes.
* The handle is just an integer that can be stored per particle and can be cached easily.
The mapping between handles and their corresponding data blocks is
stored in the Simulation data block.
The sky will appear brighter than before by default. To compensate for this,
lower exposure in the Film panel. The default altitude was also changed from
90 to 15 degrees.

This updates the usage of integer types in code I wrote according to our new style guides.
Major changes:
* Use signed instead of unsigned integers in many places.
* C++ containers in blenlib use `int64_t` for size and indices now (instead of `uint`).
* Hash values for C++ containers are 64 bit wide now (instead of 32 bit).
I do hope that I broke no builds, but it is quite likely that some compiler reports
slightly different errors. Please let me know when there are any errors. If the fix
is small, feel free to commit it yourself.
I compiled successfully on linux with gcc and on windows.
I removed bf_blenkernel from `nodes/CMakeLists.txt` again (added it yesterday),
because now this was causing me unresolved symbol errors... Without it, cmake
seems to link the libraries bf_simulation, bf_blenkernel and bf_nodes in the right
order. Not sure if that is just luck or if it is guaranteed.
It was possible to fix the issue by using cmakes `LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY`,
but that is probably bad style.
This also introduces the `blender::nodes` namespace. Eventually,
we want to move most/all of the node implementation files into
this namespace.
The reason for this file-move is that the code fits much better
into the `nodes` directory than in the `blenkernel` directory.
I got undefined reference errors on the `NodeMFNetworkBuilder::get_default_fn`
function under some circumstances. This symbol is definitely defined in bf_blenkernel.
The error seemed a bit undeterministic and was probably caused by some incorrect
link order. I don't get the error with this change.
When using the sun, we need to sun sampling logic to avoid excessive
sampling map resolution, but that logic assumes that the Vector input
comes from the view direction.
That is the case in the vast majority of cases anyways, so the easiest
solution is to just remove the input for that case.

I'm not sure if the Sky was deliberately left out or was just waiting for a
better moment, but so many I was disappointed that Sky in EEVEE is
completely white.
There are already 2 implementations (osl and gpu) so this is the third one.
Looking at other cases it seems that we are not supposed to share sources
between cycles and the rest? So the new util_sky_model files are just
copies of what is already in cycles, except that the data file uses the RGB
variant of the Hosek/Wilkie model, because we output RGB anyway (but can be
easily changed to XYZ if desired - the results are nearly identical).
I am not sure if it is okay to pass 3*9 float values as 3 mat4 uniforms (I
wanted to use mat3 but it does not work).
Also, should I cache the sky model data between renders if the parameters
do not change?

This commit adds a new model to the Sky Texture node, which is based on a
method by Nishita et al. and works by basically simulating volumetric
scattering in the atmosphere.
By making some approximations (such as only considering single scattering),
we get a fairly simple and fast simulation code that takes into account
Rayleigh and Mie scattering as well as Ozone absorption.
This code is used to precompute a 512x128 texture which is then looked up
during render time, and is fast enough to allow real-time tweaking in the
viewport.
Due to the nature of the simulation, it exposes several parameters that
allow for lots of flexibility in choosing the look and matching real-world
conditions (such as Air/Dust/Ozone density and altitude).
Additionally, the same volumetric approach can be used to compute absorption
of the direct sunlight, so the model also supports adding direct sunlight.
This makes it significantly easier to set up Sun+Sky illumination where
the direction, intensity and color of the sun actually matches the sky.
In order to support properly sampling the direct sun component, the commit
also adds logic for sampling a specific area to the kernel light sampling
code. This is combined with portal and background map sampling using MIS.
This sampling logic works for the common case of having one Sky texture
going into the Background shader, but if a custom input to the Vector
node is used or if there are multiple Sky textures, it falls back to using
only background map sampling (while automatically setting the resolution to
4096x2048 if auto resolution is used).

This use the latest GPUTexture change to use the sampler state to avoid
the pole issues instead of using GLSL hacks.
This should fix T73942: Eevee mipmaps not respecting border mode.
Note that this also fix some discrepencies between cycles and eevee (like
boxmapping + clip).
This bridge between the new sampler state support from GPUTexture and
draw material handling.
The Sampler State is just the one from the texture for now. No change in
logic.
These are the modifications:
-With DRW modification we reduce the number of passes we need to populate.
-Rename passes for consistent naming.
-Reduce complexity in code compilation
-Cleanup how renderpass accumulation passes are setup, using pass instances.
-Make sculpt mode compatible with shadows
-Make hair passes compatible with SSS
-Error shader and lookdev materials now use standalone materials.
-Support default shader (world and material) using a default nodetree internally.
-Change BLEND_CLIP to be emulated by gpu nodetree. Making less shader variations.
-Use BLI_memblock for cache memory allocation.
-Renderpasses are handled by switching a UBO ref bind.
One major hack in this patch is the use of modified pointer as ghash keys.
This rely on the assumption that the keys will never overlap because the
number of options per key will never be bigger than the pointed struct.
The use of one single nodetree to support default material is also a bit hacky
since it won't support concurent usage of this nodetree.
(see EEVEE_shader_default_surface_nodetree)
Another change is that objects with shader errors now appear solid magenta instead
of shaded magenta. This is only because of code reuse purpose but could be changed
if really needed.
