The overall goal is to get rid of `NOD_static_types.h`. This patch removes
one usage of it to generate the `node.type` rna enum. Not all of the data
was available on `bNodeType` already, so I had to add the missing data there.

Add three new nodes for operations and inputs specific to
node group operators.
- **Selection** Whether elements are selected in the viewport
- **Set Selection** Sets the edit/sculpt selection, on the point,
face, or curve domains
- **3D Cursor** Gives the location and rotation of the 3D cursor,
in the local space of the modified object.
- **Face Set** The face set value from mesh sculpt mode,
and whether the attribute exists.
- **Set Face Set** Set sculpt face set values.
In the add menu and search, the nodes are only visible in the
"Tool" context of the geometry node editor. They also give
errors when executed by a modifier.

This function is used to retrieve the index of the n'th layer of
the specified type, if it exists. Currently the way it handles
an n value that is too big is inconsistent: if there are more
layers of different types following the ones of the correct type,
and n isn't too big, it will safely detect that the corresponding
layer is of a different type and return -1. However, if the value
results in a buffer overrun, it causes an assertion or crash.
This means that safe code should currently ensure n is always
correct, making the type check in this function pointless.
Moreover, checking the range in the caller may incur more
overhead than making this code safe.
This changes the assert into a check to ensure consistent behavior.

- Use threadsafe normal computation (will be improved more in #93551)
- Copy data directly instead of loops when format is the same
- Use bke::CurvesGeometry wrapper and attribute API
- Avoid `push_back` when size is known ahead of time
Previously, simulation nodes would output default values when there is no
current simulation state and nothing should be computed. Now, the data is
just passed through which is usually less confusing.

There were a bunch of duplicated usages of `NOD_static_types.h` in
`rna_nodetree.cc`. This patch reduces the duplication, making it easier
to reason about what is going on.

Add support in the UI for the edit mode of curves, mesh, and point
cloud objects. It's possible to control for which mode sand object
types the asset is available with a dropdown in the node header.
To make this per-mode filtering possible, the static asset tree
cache is now unique per context mode.

The eventual goal is to get rid of `NOD_static_types.h` because that data should
be decentralized so that nodes can be more self-contained.
The switch cases are based on the state of `NOD_static_types.h` when the
versioning code was introduced in 4638e5f99a.

This is currently meant mainly for testing, when "Developer Extras" is
enabled. The goal is to make interactive Hydra export and USD file export
identical. We are not there yet, and having the ability to compare both
in the viewport and automated tests should help us get and stay there.
Ref #110765
Hydra is a rendering architecture part of USD, designed to abstract the
host application from the renderer. A renderer implementing a Hydra
render delegate can run in any host application supporting Hydra, which
now includes Blender.
For external renderers this means less code to be written, and improved
performance due to a using a C++ API instead of a Python API.
Add-ons need to subclass bpy.types.HydraRenderEngine. See the example in
the Python API docs for details.
An add-on for Hydra Storm will be included as well. This is USD's
rasterizing renderer, used in other applications like usdview. For users
it can provide a preview of USD file export, and for developers it
serves a reference.
There are still limitations and missing features, especially around
materials. The remaining to do items are tracked in #110765.
This feature was contributed by AMD.

The simulation used to reset when the previously computed frame is the
same as the current one. However, in this case the output should just be
the same as in the previous computation.

Add sculpt support to EEVEE Next.
It creates a new resource handle for sculpt object, since
BKE_object_boundbox_get returns a wrong (zeroed) bounding box.
This also adds a new `resource_handle` function to the `draw::Manager`
that works like the default one, but lets the caller optionally override the
object matrix and/or bounds.

`identifier` should be a better measure than `name` to check if a socket
has the same meaning among different nodes. Sometimes two sockets can
have the same name in the UI but have different (physical) meanings,
they can specify different identifiers to avoid the values being copied
when the nodes are replaced.

The complication is that `Carbon.h` also defines its own`Collection`
type, which is visible in this file as a forward declaration in
`UI_interface_icons.h`. To fix that, move the code that needs to
include platform specific includes to a separate file that includes
fewer Blender headers.

There was an earlier version of this fix in the asset shelf branch, but
got reverted after the new version ended in main 4137f9a87f. But I
forgot to update the branch for the new fix.
The `TD_NOTCONNECTED` flag is not set in all cases.
In some cases, such as Meshes, the `FLT_MAX` value better determines
when the `TrasData` is not "connected".
Therefore, this commit removes the `TD_NOTCONNECTED` flag and adapts
the code to rely on the `FLT_MAX` value instead.
These TrasDatas shouldn't even be created in these cases.
Show node group inputs in the redo panel, including the
"use attribute" toggle. There are a few limitations that will
be solved separately:
- The redo panel is _always_ drawn, there is no way to show it conditionally yet
- There is no way to add the operator name to the redo panel title yet
- Attribute search is still missing for attribute inputs
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/109975
Remove the "_for_read" suffix from methods to get geometry and geometry
components. That should be considered the default, so the suffix just
adds unnecessary text. This is consistent with the attribute API and
various implicit sharing data access methods.
Use "from_mesh" instead of "create_with_mesh". This is consistent with
the recently used naming for the `IndexMask` API.

` RenderData::border` and `View3d::render_border` are independent of each other.
Render region can be enabled even if the `V3D_RENDER_BORDER` flag is disabled.
And using the viewport render border shouldn't disable the camera view outer borders.

The previous commit introduced all the basic bits and pieces necessary
to support asset shelves as experimental feature, but didn't actually
add support for any specific editor. With this commit asset shelves can
be registered in 3D Views, which should soon be used by the Pose Library
add-on to replace its previous UI in the sidebar (see
blender/blender-addons#104546). Note that until then, there will still be no
actual asset shelf to display.
Also adds:
- Toggle to hide/unhide the asset shelf under "View" -> "Asset Shelf"
- 3D View theme settings for the asset shelf regions.
None of the changes are visible if the experimental option for the asset
shelf is not enabled.
Approved as part of #104831, then split off as separate commit.
Pull Request: #110767
No user visible changes expected, except of new experimental feature
option.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This introduces asset shelves as a new standard UI element for accessing
assets. Based on the current context (like the active mode and/or tool), they
can provide assets for specific workflows/tasks. As such they are more limited
in functionality than the asset browser, but a lot more efficient for certain
tasks.
The asset shelf is developed as part of the brush assets project (see #101895),
but is also meant to replace the current pose library UI.
Support for asset shelves can quite easily be added to different editor types,
the following commit will add support for the 3D View. If an editor type
supports asset shelves, add-ons can chose to register an asset shelf type for
an editor with just a few lines of Python.
It should be possible to entirely remove `UILayout.asset_view_template()` once
asset shelves are non-experimental.
Some changes are to be expected still, see #107881.

"Tool" is a more friendly word with mostly the same meaning within
Blender. Eventually it should be possible to create active tools with
node groups anyway, so the distinction isn't even helpful.
See #101778
Implement capture point bias. This offsets the capture
points to reduce the amount bad capture locations (i.e.:
inside objects, near walls etc...).
Two new parameters are added:
- Capture Surface Bias: Ensure a minimum distance between
capture points and surrounding geometry. This is expressed as the
relative distance between two capture point. Requires re-bake
to take effect.
- Capture Escape Bias: Moves capture points enclosed inside
objects above the nearest surface. This bias defines how far a
capture point can be moved for escaping the object. This is
expressed as the relative distance between two capture point.
Requires re-bake to take effect.
This is called virtual offset in the reference material.
A quick prepass runs before the baking to offset the samples away
from any surface that could potentially make bad samples.
In order to speedup the process, we create cluster list of surfels
near each irradiance grid point. This allow access to neighboring
surfels that can contribute to the virtual offset which should
never be more than half a cell wide.
