This adds support for attaching gizmos for input values. The goal is to make it
easier for users to set input values intuitively in the 3D viewport.
We went through multiple different possible designs until we settled on the one
implemented here. We picked it for it's flexibility and ease of use when using
geometry node assets. The core principle in the design is that **gizmos are
attached to existing input values instead of being the input value themselves**.
This actually fits the existing concept of gizmos in Blender well, but may be a
bit unintutitive in a node setup at first. The attachment is done using links in
the node editor.
The most basic usage of the node is to link a Value node to the new Linear Gizmo
node. This attaches the gizmo to the input value and allows you to change it
from the 3D view. The attachment is indicated by the gizmo icon in the sockets
which are controlled by a gizmo as well as the back-link (notice the double
link) when the gizmo is active.
The core principle makes it straight forward to control the same node setup from
the 3D view with gizmos, or by manually changing input values, or by driving the
input values procedurally.
If the input value is controlled indirectly by other inputs, it's often possible
to **automatically propagate** the gizmo to the actual input.
Backpropagation does not work for all nodes, although more nodes can be
supported over time.
This patch adds the first three gizmo nodes which cover common use cases:
* **Linear Gizmo**: Creates a gizmo that controls a float or integer value using
a linear movement of e.g. an arrow in the 3D viewport.
* **Dial Gizmo**: Creates a circular gizmo in the 3D viewport that can be
rotated to change the attached angle input.
* **Transform Gizmo**: Creates a simple gizmo for location, rotation and scale.
In the future, more built-in gizmos and potentially the ability for custom
gizmos could be added.
All gizmo nodes have a **Transform** geometry output. Using it is optional but
it is recommended when the gizmo is used to control inputs that affect a
geometry. When it is used, Blender will automatically transform the gizmos
together with the geometry that they control. To achieve this, the output should
be merged with the generated geometry using the *Join Geometry* node. The data
contained in *Transform* output is not visible geometry, but just internal
information that helps Blender to give a better user experience when using
gizmos.
The gizmo nodes have a multi-input socket. This allows **controlling multiple
values** with the same gizmo.
Only a small set of **gizmo shapes** is supported initially. It might be
extended in the future but one goal is to give the gizmos used by different node
group assets a familiar look and feel. A similar constraint exists for
**colors**. Currently, one can choose from a fixed set of colors which can be
modified in the theme settings.
The set of **visible gizmos** is determined by a multiple factors because it's
not really feasible to show all possible gizmos at all times. To see any of the
geometry nodes gizmos, the "Active Modifier" option has to be enabled in the
"Viewport Gizmos" popover. Then all gizmos are drawn for which at least one of
the following is true:
* The gizmo controls an input of the active modifier of the active object.
* The gizmo controls a value in a selected node in an open node editor.
* The gizmo controls a pinned value in an open node editor. Pinning works by
clicking the gizmo icon next to the value.

This implements a von-Kries-style chromatic adaption using the Bradford matrix.
The adaption is performed in scene linear space in the OCIO GLSL shader, with
the matrix being computed on the host.
The parameters specify the white point of the input, which is to be mapped to
the white point of the scene linear space. The main parameter is temperature,
specified in Kelvin, which defines the blackbody spectrum that is used as the
input white point. Additionally, a tint parameter can be used to shift the
white point away from pure blackbody spectra (e.g. to match a D illuminant).
The defaults are set to match D65 so there is no immediate color shift when
enabling the option. Tint = 10 is needed since the D-series illuminants aren't
perfect blackbody emitters.
As an alternative to manually specifying the values, there's also a color
picker. When a color is selected, temperature and tint are set such that this
color ends up being balanced to white.
This only works if the color is close enough to a blackbody emitter -
specifically, for tint values within +-150. Beyond this, there can be ambiguity
in the representation.
Currently, in this case, the input is just ignored and temperature/tint aren't
changed. Ideally, we'd eventually give UI feedback for this.
Presets are supported, and all the CIE standard illuminants are included.
One part that I'm not quite happy with is that the tint parameter starts to
give weird results at moderate values when the temperature is low.
The reason for this can be seen here:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Planckian-locus.png
Tint is moving along the isotherm lines (with the plot corresponding to +-150),
but below 4000K some of that range is outside of the gamut. Not much can
be done there, other than possibly clipping those values...
Adding support for this to the compositor should be quite easy and is planned
as a next step.

Reference identifiers instead of "above" in code comments as these
tends to become outdated. Even when declarations are removed it's at
least clear that the reference no longer exists instead of referring to
whatever is currently above the declaration.
It's also straightforward to search history for a removed identifier.
Corrected 4 cases of references to things that were no longer above
the doc-strings. Noticed other references which look to be incorrect
but need further investigation.
Currently, when color-picking from the viewport, the code will read the final
displayed pixel color and then somewhat attempt to undo the display transform.
However, this has several limitations - for example, precision is limited to 8
bit, and it does not account for e.g. View Transform or exposure/gamma.
Since we have the pre-display-transform color in a GPU texture anyways, this
code therefore adds a View3D-specific eyedropper handler (similar to e.g.
the image space) that reads from the viewport texture.

`booleans_mix_calc` was incorrect. While it computed the correct result in
many common cases, under some specific circumstances, at was wrong.
Whether it was wrong also depended on how the range was split up for
multi-threading which is not deterministic.
The function was used in `Mesh::normals_domain` which then also returned
the wrong domain in some cases.
This should not happen and any failure here should be considered a bug.
But for end users better not to hang Blender, and to have a better
diagnostic for developers in bug reports.

Fix of conversion identity quaternion to axis angle. Basically,
if the length of the imaginary part-vector is zero, it is
incorrect to normalize it. Simple identity should be returned.

For some reason this was not inlined. Considering it's a very simple function
and function call overhead could be measurable. In the case of the simple
brush benchmark file from the current sculpting project (#118145), this
improved performance by 6%, from 2.44s to 2.29s.
This is the first commit of the several required to support
subprocess-based parallel compilation on OpenGL.
This provides the base API and implementation, and exposes the max
subprocesses setting on the UI, but it's not used by any code yet.
More information and the rest of the code can be found in #121925.
This one includes:
- A new `GPU_shader_batch` API that allows requesting the compilation
of multiple shaders at once, allowing GPU backed to compile them in
parallel and asynchronously without blocking the Blender UI.
- A virtual `ShaderCompiler` class that backends can use to add their
own implementation.
- A `ShaderCompilerGeneric` class that implements synchronous/blocking
compilation of batches for backends that don't have their own
implementation yet.
- A `GLShaderCompiler` that supports parallel compilation using
subprocesses.
- A new `BLI_subprocess` API, including IPC (required for the
`GLShaderCompiler` implementation).
- The implementation of the subprocess program in
`GPU_compilation_subprocess`.
- A new `Max Shader Compilation Subprocesses` option in
`Preferences > System > Memory & Limits` to enable parallel shader
compilation and the max number of subprocesses to allocate (each
subprocess has a relatively high memory footprint).
Implementation Overview:
There's a single `GLShaderCompiler` shared by all OpenGL contexts.
This class stores a pool of up to `GCaps.max_parallel_compilations`
subprocesses that can be used for compilation.
Each subprocess has a shared memory pool used for sending the shader
source code from the main Blender process and for receiving the already
compiled shader binary from the subprocess. This is synchronized using
a series of shared semaphores.
The subprocesses maintain a shader cache on disk inside a
`BLENDER_SHADER_CACHE` folder at the OS temporary folder.
Shaders that fail to compile are tried to be compiled again locally for
proper error reports.
Hanged subprocesses are currently detected using a timeout of 30s.

Both these operators would quite often put the framed strips offscreen.
This was in part due to the padding need to make sure that the strips
were not going to be obscured by the scrub area or overlays not being
applied or calculated correctly.
In addition to that, the view positioning logic was not in sync with the
vertical clamping code. This lead to the operators positioning the view
into a forbidden state. So the clamping logic would adjust the view
afterwards and thus put some of the framed strips offscreen.
This patch unifies the logic used by the "frame X" operators and the
clamping code, making them play nice with each other.

This is similar to the changes done for `normalized_to_quaternion_safe`.
It's quite easy to get object matrices with skew by rotating an object and making
if a child of another non-uniformly scaled object.
The old C-style `BLI_ASSERT_UNIT_V...` assert macros have a few issues:
* They are named `unit`, but also consider a zero-length vector as valid.
* They use a fairly high epsilon value, which was defined because
vertex normals used to be stored as shorts.
Fortunately, these are used only in one place in the modern BLI_math C++
code AFAICS, which is `math::rotate_direction_around_axis`.
This commit adds some utils to check for vectors being (almost) unit
or zero length, using more modern bases for epsilon values (from
`std::numeric_limits`).
* `is_zero` keeps its existing default arror of `0` (i.e. strictly null
vector by default). That way, current behavior is not changed, and in
most cases null vectors are explicitely created as exactly null.
* `is_unit` uses a default 10 times the type's epsilon, as a zero
epsilon would virtually never succeed here.
And it modifies `rotate_direction_around_axis` to:
* Assert that `axis` is a unit vector.
* Early-out in case given `direction` is a null vector, or rotating
angle is zero.
* Assert about `direction` being a unit vector otherwise.
Note that this will make `rotate_direction_around_axis` use much
stricter epsilon error factors. This does not seem to affect any of the
files that triggered asserts prior to recent fix in e18dd894b8 though.

Asserts triggered e.g. by opening Gold production files (like
`pro/shots/220_storm/220_0020/220_0020-anim.blend`). Their root cause
are zero tangent vectors.
The asserts initially came from unormalized normals, but the root issue
is actually using zero vector as axis in calls to
`math::rotate_direction_around_axis`.
While rotating a zero direction vector is possible (though useless),
rotating around a zero axis vector makes no sense?
So this commit adds an assert that the given axis is non-zero in
`rotate_direction_around_axis`. And 'fixes' the found cases triggering
such assert by skipping rotation when the axis (tangent) is null.
Another related issue fixed by this commit is the iterative process in
calls to `calculate_next_normal`, which can accumulate small floating
point errors over time, leading to generating not normalized-enough
normals at some point.

Unlike to `lookup_or_default` accessor methods of `Map` or attribute provider class,
`Span::get` is not so explicit and self described to be used with default value.
Other one issue was is that result is by value. But this is not the main reason to
delete this method. And although this can be fixed by reference, this is still not
such good to just have method to check index and return something.

One of the properties of Perlin noise is that it always evaluates to 0.0
when not normalized (or 0.5 when normalized) when the input consists of
only whole integers in all vector components.
Blender's Perlin noise implementation uses single precision floats with
a machine epsilon of 1.19e-07 meaning that for numbers that are greater
than 1/(1.19e-07) = 8.40e6 there mantissa doesn't have any bits left to
store a rational part of the number, effectively meaning that any number
greater than 8.40e6 is a whole integer as far as Blender is concerned.
Therefore when evaluating Perlin noise for any coordinates greater than
that it always results in 0.0 (or 0.5 when normalized).
This fix works as follows: If the original input number is larger than
1.0e6 it is offset by 0.5 after it underwent modulo, which always outputs
numbers in a [0.0, 1.0e5) range leaving the mantissa room for a rational
part. This way the quantization error still persists however the outputs
are random again instead of a constant 0.0.
