Move all header file into namespace.
Unnecessary namespaces was removed from implementations file.
Part of forward declarations in header was moved in the top part
of file just to do not have a lot of separate namespaces.

Improve working with multiple group input nodes by automatically
hiding new node group input sockets on any group input node with
hidden extension socket.
Whenever the extension socket is hidden, the user can now expect
the socket visibility of the group input node to stay fixed.
When the extension socket is shown on the other hand, the group input
node will update when sockets are added to the group interface.

Previously, we haven't added this because there were plans to use these
declarations at a higher abstraction level where one declaration potentially
contains more than one socket. This hasn't happened yet, and we are also using
other ways to achieve dynamic socket amounts (using dynamic declarations).
Therefore, it is reasonable to simplify the code by storing the integer socket
type in the declaration directly.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/119691
Implements the design from #116067.
The socket type is called "Matrix" but it is often referred to as "Transform"
when that's what it is semantically. The attribute type is "4x4 Matrix" since
that's a lower level choice. Currently matrix sockets are always passed
around internally as `float4x4`, but that can be optimized in the future
when smaller types would give the same behavior.
A new "Matrix" utilities category has the following set of initial nodes"
- **Combine Transform**
- **Separate Transform**
- **Multiply Matrices**
- **Transform Direction**
- **Transform Vector**
- **Invert Matrix**
- **Transpose Matrix**
The nodes and socket type are behind an experimental flag for now,
which will give us time to make sure it's the right set of initial nodes.
The viewer node overlay doesn't support matrices-- they aren't supported
for rendering in general. They also aren't supported in the modifier interface
currently. But they are supported in the spreadsheet, where the value is
displayed in a tooltip.

This patch adds support for _Menu Switch_ nodes and enum definitions in
node trees more generally. The design is based on the outcome of the
[2022 Nodes Workshop](https://code.blender.org/2022/11/geometry-nodes-workshop-2022/#menu-switch).
The _Menu Switch_ node is an advanced version of the _Switch_ node which
has a customizable **menu input socket** instead of a simple boolean.
The _items_ of this menu are owned by the node itself. Each item has a
name and description and unique identifier that is used internally. A
menu _socket_ represents a concrete value out of the list of items.
To enable selection of an enum value for unconnected sockets the menu is
presented as a dropdown list like built-in enums. When the socket is
connected a shared pointer to the enum definition is propagated along
links and stored in socket default values. This allows node groups to
expose a menu from an internal menu switch as a parameter. The enum
definition is a runtime copy of the enum items in DNA that allows
sharing.
A menu socket can have multiple connections, which can lead to
ambiguity. If two or more different menu source nodes are connected to a
socket it gets marked as _undefined_. Any connection to an undefined
menu socket is invalid as a hint to users that there is a problem. A
warning/error is also shown on nodes with undefined menu sockets.
At runtime the value of a menu socket is the simple integer identifier.
This can also be a field in geometry nodes. The identifier is unique
within each enum definition, and it is persistent even when items are
added, removed, or changed. Changing the name of an item does not affect
the internal identifier, so users can rename enum items without breaking
existing input values. This also persists if, for example, a linked node
group is temporarily unavailable.

Along with the 4.1 libraries upgrade, we are bumping the clang-format
version from 8-12 to 17. This affects quite a few files.
If not already the case, you may consider pointing your IDE to the
clang-format binary bundled with the Blender precompiled libraries.
This refactors `SocketValueVariant` with the following goals in mind:
* Support type erasure so that not all users of `SocketValueVariant` have
to know about all the types sockets can have.
* Move towards supporting "rainbow sockets" which are sockets whoose
type is only known at run-time.
* Reduce complexity when dealing with socket values in general. Previously,
one had to use `SocketValueVariantCPPType` a lot to manage uninitialized
memory. This is better abstracted away now.
One related change that I had to do that I didn't see coming at first was that
I had to refactor `set_default_remaining_outputs` because now the default value
of a `SocketValueVariant` would not contain any value. Previously, it was
initialized the zero-value of the template parameter. Similarly, I had to change
how implicit conversions are created, because comparing the `CPPType` of linked
sockets was not enough anymore to determine if a conversion is necessary.
We could potentially use `SocketValueVariant` for the remaining socket types in the
future as well. Not entirely sure if that helps yet. `SocketValueVariant` can easily be
adapted to make that work though. That would also justify the name
"SocketValueVariant" better.

Doing this in preparation for also supporting volume
grids in the same type (#115270).
At some point we could also actually use an `std::variant` in this
type, but that would change behavior without futher changes.
This struct is currently defined in the `functions` module but not actually used there. It's only used by the geometry nodes module, with an indirect dependency from blenkernel via simulation zone baking. This scope is problematic when adding grids as socket data, which should not be part of the functions module.
The `ValueOrField` struct is now moved to blenkernel, so it can be more easily extended to other kinds of data that might be passed around by geometry nodes sockets in future. No functional changes.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/115087
This changes a bunch of nodes that have a data type drop-down to using a dynamic
node declaration that changes based on the selected data type instead of always having
all sockets. This greatly simplifies the code and is less weird than having suffixes on
socket identifiers.
Backward compatibility and forward compatibility remain due to #113497 and #113984.
One user-visible change is that changing the data type in these nodes does not break
the link anymore.
It may be necessary to bring back some functionality from link-drag-search afterwards.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/113553
The last good commit was 8474716abb.
After this commits from main were pushed to blender-v4.0-release. These are
being reverted.
Commits a4880576dc from to b26f176d1a that happend afterwards were meant for
4.0, and their contents is preserved.
Of the two overloaded functions clang chose the non-span version with
only a single item in the initializer list. Resolve that by not using an
intializer list in that case.
This helps solving the problem encountered in #113553. The problem is that we
currently can't support link-drag-search for nodes which have a dynamic declaration.
With this patch, there is only a single `declare` function per node type, instead of
the separate `declare` and `declare_dynamic` functions. The new `declare` function
has access to the node and tree. However, both are allowed to be null. The final
node declaration has a flag for whether it depends on the node context or not.
Nodes that previously had a dynamic declaration should now create as much of
the declaration as possible that does not depend on the node. This allows code
like for link-drag-search to take those sockets into account even if the other
sockets are dynamic.
For node declarations that have dynamic types (e.g. Switch node), we can also
add extra information to the static node declaration, like the identifier of the socket
with the dynamic type. This is not part of this patch though.
I can think of two main alternatives to the approach implemented here:
* Define two separate functions for dynamic nodes. One that creates the "static
declaration" without node context, and on that creates the actual declaration with
node context.
* Have a single declare function that generates "build instructions" for the actual
node declaration. So instead of building the final declaration directly, one can for
example add a socket whose type depends on a specific rna path in the node.
The actual node declaration is then automatically generated based on the build
instructions. This becomes quite a bit more tricky with dynamic amounts of sockets
and introduces another indirection between declarations and what sockets the node
actually has.
I found the approach implemented in this patch to lead to the least amount of
boilerplate (doesn't require a seperate "build instructions" data structure) and code
duplication (socket properties are still only defined in one place). At the same time,
it offers more flexibility to how nodes can be dynamic.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/113742
The goal of this patch is to allow us to use dynamic node declarations
for various nodes in a future version without breaking forward compatibility.
The same kind of change should be added to Blender 3.6.
The code added here is not supposed to end up in `main`, so it has to be
removed when merging the release branch.

The hash tables and vector blenlib headers were pulling many more
headers than they actually need, including the C base math header,
our C string API header, and the StringRef header. All of this
potentially slows down compilation and polutes autocomplete
with unrelated information.
Also remove the `ListBase` constructor for `Vector`. It wasn't used
much, and making it easy to use `ListBase` isn't worth it for the
same reasons mentioned above.
It turns out a lot of files depended on indirect includes of
`BLI_string.h` and `BLI_listbase.h`, so those are fixed here.

Part 3/3 of #109135, #110272
Switch to new node group interfaces and deprecate old DNA and API.
This completes support for panels in node drawing and in node group
interface declarations in particular.
The new node group interface DNA and RNA code has been added in parts
1 and 2 (#110885, #110952) but has not be enabled yet. This commit
completes the integration by
* enabling the new RNA API
* using the new API in UI
* read/write new interfaces from blend files
* add versioning for backward compatibility
* add forward-compatible writing code to reconstruct old interfaces
All places accessing node group interface declarations should now be
using the new API. A runtime cache has been added that allows simple
linear access to socket inputs and outputs even when a panel hierarchy
is used.
Old DNA has been deprecated and should only be accessed for versioning
(inputs/outputs renamed to inputs_legacy/outputs_legacy to catch
errors). Versioning code ensures both backward and forward
compatibility of existing files.
The API for old interfaces is removed. The new API is very similar but
is defined on the `ntree.interface` instead of the `ntree` directly.
Breaking change notifications and detailed instructions for migrating
will be added.
A python test has been added for the node group API functions. This
includes new functionality such as creating panels and moving items
between different levels.
This patch does not yet contain panel representations in the modifier
UI. This has been tested in a separate branch and will be added with a
later PR (#108565).

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
Move `GeometrySet` and `GeometryComponent` and subclasses
to the `blender::bke` namespace. This wasn't done earlier since
these were one of the first C++ classes used throughout Blender,
but now it is common.
Also remove the now-unnecessary C-header, since all users of
the geometry set header are now in C++.

Add a quaternion rotation socket type, and using the recently added
rotation attribute type, support the type in most of the multi-type
geometry nodes, and modifier attribute inputs and outputs.
The socket is still exposed with an XYZ Euler default value.
In the future we can add modes to this rotation value similar
to object rotations.
Rotation values have no implicit conversions to other types.
Nodes to convert to and from rotation values will be added
in a follow-up commit.
For now, the new socket type is hidden behind and experimental
option, because we haven't chosen the final color for it yet.

A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:
https://reuse.software/faq/
See: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/103343
Changes:
1. Added `BKE_node.hh` file. New file includes old one.
2. Functions moved to new file. Redundant `(void)`, `struct` are removed.
3. All cpp includes replaced from `.h` on `.hh`.
4. Everything in `BKE_node.hh` is on `blender::bke` namespace.
5. All implementation functions moved in namespace.
6. Function names (`BKE_node_*`) changed to `blender::bke::node_*`.
7. `eNodeSizePreset` now is a class, with renamed items.

The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
Versioning code in `do_versions_after_linking_260` inserted new group input
and output nodes. And (reasonably?) expected sockets to exist on those nodes.
However, `nodeAddStaticNode` did not initialize sockets on nodes with that use
`declare_dynamic` yet. This patch changes it so that `declare_dynamic` is used
in more places, which caused issues during file loading when node groups are
updated in somewhat arbitrary order (not in an order that is based on which
groups use which).

Since a year and a half ago we've been switching to a new way to
represent what sockets a node should have called "declarations"
that's easier to use, clearer, and more flexible for upcoming
features like dynamic socket counts or generic type sockets.
All builtin nodes with a static set of sockets have switched, but one
missing area has been group nodes and group input/output nodes. These
nodes have **dynamic** declarations which change based on their
properties or the group they're inside of. This patch addresses that,
in preparation for using the same dynamic declaration feature for
simulation nodes.
Generally there shouldn't be user-visible differences, but one benefit
is that user-created socket descriptions are now visible directly in
the node editor for group nodes and group input/output nodes.
The commit contains a few changes:
- Add a node type callback for building dynamic declarations with
different arguments
- Add an `Extend` socket declaration for the "virtual" sockets used
for connecting new links
- A similar `Custom` socket declaration is used for addon-defined socket
- Simplify the node update loop to use the declaration to build update
sockets
- Replace the "group update" functions with the declaration building
- Move the node group input/output link creation to link drag operator
- Make the field status part of group node declarations
(not for group input/output nodes though)
- Some fixes for declarations to make them update and build properly
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D16850
Since internal links are only runtime data, we have the flexibility to
allocating every link individually. Instead we can store links directly
in the node runtime vector. This allows avoiding many small allocations
when copying and changing node trees.
In the future we could use a smaller type like a pair of sockets
instead of `bNodeLink` to save memory.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D16960
When these declarations are built without the help of the special
builder class, it's much more convenient to set them directly rather
than with a constructor, etc. In most other situations the declarations
should be const anyway, so theoretically this doesn't affect safety too
much. Most construction of declarations should still use the builder.
