This is because OB_MODE_SCULPT_CURVES is not part of OB_MODE_ALL_PAINT

more places that need checking and so patch only fixes the report very
isolated.

Fixed more cases where attributes weren't being reinitialized
on switching PBVH mode:
* When PBVH_GRIDS and PBVH_BMESH force attributes into simple
array mode they no longer override simple_array in the
SculptAttributeParams parameters, instead they set a field
in SculptAttribute itself. Thus if the attribute is
reinitialized in another mode it won't retain the simple_array
parameter.
* sculpt_attribute_ensure_ex now calls sculpt_attr_update if
the attribute already exists.
* Fixed a bug from a couple commits ago that set
SculptAttribute.data_for_bmesh wrong.
PBVH draw code now builds coarse triangle index buffers
for multires. Note that the coarse grids can be at any
multires depth but is currently hardcoded to 1.
Compile each static shader using shaderc to Spir-V binaries.
The main goal is to make sure that the GLSL created using ShaderCreateInfo and able to compile to Spir-V.
For the second stage a correct pipeline needs to be created and some shader would need more
adjustments (push constants size).
With this patch future changes to GLSL sources can already be checked against vulkan, without the
backend finished.
Mechanism has been tested using MacOS and MoltenVK. For other OS, we should finetune CMake
files to find the right location to shaderc.

Image engine uses 4 gpu textures that are as large as the area being
drawn. The amount of needed GPU memory can be reduced by dividing the
region in smaller parts. Reducing the GPU memory also reduces the stalls
when updating the textures, improving the performance as well.
This optimization works, but is disabled for now due to some rounding
errors that drawn lines on the screen where the screen is divided.
It used to be a number of fixed full screen images where the
responsibility was at image engine. Now moved the responsibility to the
drawing mode to make sure we can allocate non-full region-size textures
in a future refactoring.
`get_gpu_textures` was created when the image engine didn't support
texture streaming and used the gpu textures that were stored in the
image buffer itself.
Float images loaded in Blender are converted to scene linear and don't
require additional conversion. Image engine can reuse the rect_float of
those images. An assert statement is added tp make this more clear and
to test on missing code paths or future developments.
Texture usage flags can now be provided during texture creation specifying
the ways in which a texture can be used. This allows the GPU backends to
perform contextual optimizations which were not previously possible. This
includes enablement of hardware lossless compression which can result in
a 15%+ performance uplift for bandwidth-limited scenes on hardware such
as Apple-Silicon using Metal.
GPU_TEXTURE_USAGE_GENERAL can be used by default if usage is not known
ahead of time. Patch will also be relevant for the Vulkan backend.

Image engine is used to draw the image inside the image editor, uv editor and node editor. The
performance during scrolling wasn't smooth when using larger textures on a dedicated GPU. Main
reason was the data transfers that happens when panning the image.
The original idea of the image engine was to have 4 textures that are as large as the editor.
Those textures would be used to simulate a larger canvas where if the texture is out of the
visible area the texture would be reused to contain the data of a new visible area. This would
reduce the data transfers to only on certain x/y coordinates. Between those coordinates no
data transfers would be needed.
This patch implements the mechanism described above. During development other areas to
improve have been detected (incorrect color management for float textures, using different
image formats to reduce data transfer bandwidths, using different render techniques for
images upto 8k). More improvements will follow.
Issue was the lifetime of GPUVertFormat & GPUVertAttr.
Both need to be static in the function to be persistent here (and
handled appropriately).
Was an error in rB319ee296fd0c.

A utility function retrieved mesh arrays for every element after
05952aa94d which can be easily avoided. This was used when
building the GPU indices for sculpt mode drawing. In my tests this
saves 0.1ms per PBVH node. There may be very slight improvements
in line art and shrinkwrap as well.
Overlay relationship lines were missing between the object having the
modifier and the target object.
To make this consistent with other objects types, now draw relationship
lines for greasepencil and hooks now, too.
