The subdivision modifier for Grease Pencil handles closed strokes
correctly now and does converge to the same shape as the mesh
subdivision surface.

Create `Curves` directly, instead of using the conversion from
`CurveEval`. This means that the `tilt` and `radius` attributes
don't need to be allocated. The old behavior is kept by using the
right defaults in the conversion to `CurveEval` later on.
The Bezier segment primitive isn't ported yet, because functions
to provide easy access to built-in attributes used for Bezier curves
haven't been added yet.

Currently, any time a Curves data-block is created, the `curves_random`
function runs, filling it with 500 random curves, also adding a radius
attribute. This is just left over from the prototype in the initial
commit that added the type.
This commit moves the code that creates the random data to the curve
editors module, like the other primitives are organized.

The issue was uncovered by the 0f89bcdbeb, but the root cause goes
into a much earlier design violation happened in the code: the modifier
evaluation function is modifying input mesh, which is not something
what is ever expected.
Bring code closer to the older state where such modification is only
done for the object in edit mode.

From own tests works seems to work fine, but extra eyes and testing
is needed.

When dimension of images aren't a multifold of 256 parts of the gpu
textures are not updated. This patch will calculate the correct part of
the image that needs to be reuploaded.
Internally the update tiles are 256x256. Due to some miscalculations
tiles were not generated correctly if the dimension of the image wasn't
a multifold of 256.
Currently the code expects the radius attribuet to always exist on the
input Curves. This won't be true in the future though, so the correct
default value of one should be used when creating the data on CurveEval,
where the data is not optional.
This commit improves the drawing of selected node links:
- Highlight the entire link to make it easier to spot where the link
is going/coming from.
- Always draw selected links on top, so they are always clearly
visible.
- Don't fade selected node links when the sockets they are connected
to are out out view.
- Dragged node links still get a partial highlight when they are only
attached to one socket.

New code from the vertex normal refactor cfa53e0fbe combined with older code
from 592759e3d6 that disabled instancing for custom normals and autosmooth
meant that instancing was always disabled.
However we do not need to disable instancing for custom normals and autosmooth
at all, this can be shared between instances just fine.
This commit changes `CurveComponent` to store the new curve
type by adding conversions to and from `CurveEval` in most nodes.
This will temporarily make performance of curves in geometry nodes
much worse, but as functionality is implemented for the new type
and it is used in more places, performance will become better than
before.
We still use `CurveEval` for drawing curves, because the new `Curves`
data-block has no evaluated points yet. So the `Curve` ID is still
generated for rendering in the same way as before. It's also still
needed for drawing curve object edit mode overlays.
The old curve component isn't removed yet, because it is still used
to implement the conversions to and from `CurveEval`.
A few more attributes are added to make this possible:
- `nurbs_weight`: The weight for each control point on NURBS curves.
- `nurbs_order`: The order of the NURBS curve
- `knots_mode`: Necessary for conversion, not defined yet.
- `handle_type_{left/right}`: An 8 bit integer attribute.

Motion paths can now be initialised to more sensible frame ranges,
rather than simply 1-250:
- Scene Frame Range
- Selected Keyframes
- All Keyframes
The Motion Paths operators are now also added to the Object context menu
and the Dopesheet context menu.
The scene range operator was removed, because the operators now
automatically find the range when baking the motion paths.
The clear operator now appears separated in "Selected Only" and "All",
because it was not clear for the user what the button was doing.

Some logic and comments in the vertex normal calculation were
left over from when normals were stored in MVert, before
cfa53e0fbe. Normals are never allocated and freed
locally anymore.
In some cases, the normal edit modifier calculated the normals on one
mesh with the "ensure" functions, then copied the mesh and retrieved
the layers "for write" on the copy. Since 59343ee162, normal
layers are never copied, and normals are allocated with malloc instead
of calloc, so the mutable memory was uninitialized.
Fix by calculating normals on the correct mesh, and also add a warning
to the "for write" functions in the header.
These features are complicated to support on GPU and hardly compatible
with subdivision in the first place. In the future, with T68891 and
T68893, subdivision and custom smooth shading will be separate workflows.
For now, and to better prepare for this future (although long term
plan), we should discourage workflows mixing subdivision and custom
smooth normals, and as such, this disables GPU subdivision when
autosmoothing or custom split normals are used.
This also adds a message in the modifier's UI to indicate that GPU
subdivision will be disabled if autosmooth or custom split normals are
used on the mesh.

The custom data code checks for `LayerTypeInfo.defaultname` before
adding a second layer with a certain type. This was missed in
e7912dfa19. In practice, this default name
is not actually used.
This affects essentially the Outliner 'create hierarchy' tool currenlty.
Previously code did not handle properly hierarchy root in case overrides
where created from a non-root ID (e.g. an object inside of a linked
collection), and in case additional partial overrides were added to an
existing partially overrided hierarchy.
Also did some renaming on the go to avoid using 'reference' in override
context for anything else but the reference linked IDs.
This is similar to f8fe0e831e, which made the change to the
handle position attributes. This commit removes the way that setting the
`position` attribute also changes the handle position attributes. Now,
the "Set Position" node still has this behavior, but changing the
attribute directly (with the modifier's output attributes) does not.
The previous behavior was a relic of the geometry nodes design
from before fields and the set position node existed.
This makes the transition to the new curves data structure simpler.
There is more room for optimizing the Bezier case of the set position
node in the future.
The scale-to-fit option did nothing for single words when
the text box had a height. This happened because it was expected that
text would be wrapped however single words never wrap.
Now the same behavior for zero-height text boxes is used when text
can't be wrapped onto multiple lines.
The handle position attributes `handle_left` and `handle_right` had
rather complex behavior to get expected behavior when aligned or auto/
vector handles were used. In order to simplify the attribtue API and
make the transition to the new curves data structure simpler, this
commit moves that behavior from the attribute to the "Set Handle
Positions" node. When that node is used, the behavior should be the
same as before. However, if the modifier's output attributes were used
to set handle positions, the behavior may be different. That situation
is expected to be very rare though.
This adds a node with a boolean field output which returns true if all of the
points of the evaluated face are on the same plane. A float field input allows
for the threshold of the face/point comparison to be adjusted on a per face basis.
One clear use case is to only triangulate faces that are not planar.

The main goal here is to add the boilerplate code to make it possible
to add the actual sculpt tools more easily. Both brush implementations
added by this patch are meant to be prototypes which will be removed
or refined in the coming weeks.

This adds a node which copies part of a geometry a dynamic number
of times.
Different parts of the geometry can be copied differing amounts
of times, controlled by the amount input field. Geometry can also
be ignored by use of the selection input.
The output geometry contains only the copies created by the node.
if the amount input is set to zero, the output geometry will be
empty. The duplicate index output is an integer index with the copy
number of each duplicate.
