The new preset I made for 2.91 is way more controllable with lower
strength values and does not have the accumulate bug, but until the
brush management is in place to ship multiple versions of the brush,
probably most people expect something closer to the old version to be
the default.

Better use higher-level code from common ID management when possible.
Helps to de-duplicate logic, and reduces outside usages of more
'dangerous' functions.
Note that we could get rid of many of those `BKE_<id_type>_add`
functions now, but on the other hand several of those take extra
parameters and perform additional actions, so think we can keep them all
for now as 'non-standard ID specific creation functions'.
Those were only shallow wrappers around `BKE_id_copy`, barely used (even
fully unused in some cases), and we want to get rid of those ID-specific
helpers for the common ID management tasks. Also prevents weird custom
behaviors (like `BKE_object_copy`, who was the only basic ID copy
function to reset user count of the new copy to zero).
Part of 71219.
This should improve the issue with Scrape accumulation in concave
surfaces. When the strength of the brush is higher, the area radius is
also bigger, so the scrape plane is more stable preventing it from
accumulating displacement in the same area.
The Scrape/Fill default presets are also updated to include this
functionality.

Calling: bpy.ops.wm.read_homefile(use_empty=True)

Simplified logic for assigning materials in versioning code.

This is part of T76372.
It adds the `blend_write`, `blend_read_data`, `blend_read_lib`

Having these callbacks allows us to decentralize the blenloader
code a lot more. This has the affect that code related to any
specific ID type is less scattered.

In 2.83 and previous versions there was a bug that was causing boundary
vertices to be detected incorrectly that was preventing the smooth brush
to work on boundaries if there was a pole on them.
In 2.90 the boundary vertex detection was fixed, but it was still using a
simplified version of the algorithm without any boundary smoothing. This
patch implements a similar smoothing algorithm to what I think it was
the intention of 2.83 and previous versions, but working correctly.

This brush includes a set of deformation modes designed to deform and
control the shape of the mesh boundaries, which are really hard to do
with regular sculpt brushes (and even in edit mode). This is useful
for creating cloth assets and hard surface base meshes.
The brush detects the mesh boundary closest to the active vertex and
propagates the deformation using the brush falloff into the mesh.
It includes bend, expand, inflate, grab and twist deform modes.
The main use cases of this brush are the Bend and Expand deformation
modes, which depend on a grid topology to create the best results.
In order to do further adjustments and tweaks to the result of these
deformation modes, the brush also includes the Inflate, Grab and
Twist deformation modes, which do not depend that much on the topology.
Grab and Inflate are the same operation that is implemented in the
Grab and Inflate tools, they are also available in the boundary brush
as producing deformations with regular brushes in these areas is very
hard to control.
Even if this brush can produce deformations in triangle meshes and
meshes with a non-regular quad grid, the more regular and clean the
topology is, the better. Most of the assets this brush is intended to
deform are always created from a cylindrical or plane quad grid, so it
should be fine. Also, its algorithms can be improved in future versions
to handle more corner cases and topology patterns.

This issue was produced by a hack in the sculpt mode code from 2.80
when the sculpt API for connectivity info was not available.
The smooth brush was the only brush that needed connectivity info,
so there were 3 different smooth functions with the connectivity
queries implemented for dyntopo, meshes and grids. The mesh version
of smoothing was checking the number of connected faces to a vertex
to mask the mesh boundaries, which was not covering all cases and
was hardcoded in the smooth function itself.
This patch removes all those legacy functions and unifies all
smooth functions into a single one using the new API and the
automasking system. In order to achieve this, there were needed
some extra changes:
- The smooth brush now does not automasks the boundaries by default,
so its default preset needs to be updated to enable automasking
- The mesh boundary info is extracted once and cached in a
bitmap, similar to the disconnected elements IDs. This makes
boundary detection work as expected in all cases, solving a lot
of known issues with the smooth brush. In multires, this info is
extracted and cached only at the base mesh level, so it is much
more memory efficient than the previous automasking system.
- In order to keep the brushes responsive as they were before,
the automasking system can now skip creating the cache when it
is not needed for the requested options. This means that for
high poly meshes and simple automasking options the brushes
won't lag on start.

This addresses warnings from Clang-Tidy's `readability-else-after-return`
rule in the `source/blender/blenkernel` module. Not all warnings are
addressed in this commit.
No functional changes.
This option allows posing meshes with different disconnected elements
using the Pose Brush.
This is achieved by doing the following:
- Creating an ID per vertex that stores the connected component of that vertex.
- By using those IDs, one fake topology connection is created per vertex to the nearest vertex in a different ID. The maximum distance to create that connection is determined by the "Max Element Distance" property. These fake connectivity neighbors are used in the Sculpt API functions iterators, so all the algorithms of the Pose Brush can run without modifications as if everything was part of the same mesh.
In order to make this work, the "Connected only" property of the Pose Brush needs to be disabled. This will add an extra performance cost to the Pose Brush and its preview. To achieve optimal results, max element distance should be as low as possible.

As the brushes were not created, all modes except Edit were broken.
Now, the brushes and palette are not created when load the file in versioning code, but when the mode is enabled.
Also, if the brush already exist, the parameters are not reset as it was done in the versioning code in order to keep user settings.
The same logic is used for the default palette.
Now the brushes have several new random settings and use curves to define the effect. The curves have been moved below the parameter to keep UI standards and extra curve panels have been removed.

The new curves are:
* Hue.
* Saturation.
* Value.
New option to random at stroke level instead to random at point level for the following values:
* Thickness.
* Strength.
* UV.
* Hue.
* Saturation.
* Value.
Curves have been moved below the corresponding parameter and only are displayed in properties panel. Display the curves in the popover made it unusable.

The Layer brush was in Blender before 2.81, when the sculpt API was
introduced. It had a huge amount of bugs and glitches which made it
almost unusable for anything but the most trivial cases. Also, it needed
some hacks in the code just to support the persistent base.
The brush was completely rewritten using the Sculpt API. It fulfills the
same use case as the old one, but it has:
- All previous artifacts fixed
- Simpler code
- Persistent base now works with multires thanks to the sculpt API
- Small cursor widget to preview the layer height
- More controllable and smoother strength and deformation
- More correct masking support
- More predictable invert support. When using persistent base, the brush invert mode resets to layer height 0, instead of jumping from +1 to -1. The brush can still be inverted in the brush direction property.

While it might be handy to have type-less functionality which is
similar to how C++ math is implemented it can not be easily achieved
with just preprocessor in a way which does not have side-effects on
wrong usage.
There macros where often used on a non-trivial expression, and there
was at least one usage where it was causing an actual side effect/bug
on Windows (see change around square_f(sh[index++]) in studiolight.c).
For such cases it is handy to have a function which is guaranteed to
have zero side-effects. The motivation behind actually removing the
macros is that there is already a way to do similar calculation. Also,
not having such macros is a way to guarantee that its usage is not
changed in a way which have side-effects and that it's not used as an
inspiration for cases where it should not be used.

- Sculpt Mode Face Sets and Visibility API.
- Sculpt Face Sets creation and visibility management operators.
- Operator to randomize the Face Sets colors.
- Draw Face Sets brush tool to create and edit the Face Sets. Drawing on the mesh creates a new Face Set. Pressing Ctrl before drawing modifies the Face Set under the brush at the beginning of the stroke.
