Fix a mistake in commit 2ce5fc4a3e that caused a crash when detaching
node links from input sockets.
When a link is detached from an input socket, `nodeRemLink` nulls the
`link` pointer of the socket.
So before the next update inputs are linked but don't have a valid `link`
pointer causing the crash, when trying to access the link in
`std_node_socket_draw`.
The introduced check avoids the crash and is more correct since it
doesn't just check one link for multi-input sockets.

Change the active area along the perimeter of frame nodes to have a more
consistent width independently of the zoom level so frame nodes can more
easily be grabbed and resized when zoomed out.

Prevent make links operator from creating links to sockets that are
already linked to a muted link.
The `SOCK_IS_LINKED` flag is used to check if there already is a link
connecting to the socket but when the link is muted, the flag wasn't set
leading to issues in parts of the code that used the flag to check
for any type of connected link.
This commit now also sets `SOCK_IS_LINKED` when links are muted and
adds an additional check in places where different behavior is expected
for muted links.

Fix node link insertion during transform not working properly for
rotation and scale.
Inserting nodes by rotating or scaling...
* ...didn't offset the attached nodes.
* ...could lead to unfreed memory.
This commit fixes that by always calling the `NODE_OT_insert_offset`
operator at the end of the node transform operator rather than having
to explicitly append it into a macro operator for each transform
operator.

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/
The issue was that `is_rendering` was used as a proxy to check
whether the interface is locked. Locking the node editor during rendering
is not necessary, but it currently is necessary while baking, because
baking changes original data from a different thread.
The solution is to use the already existing mechanism to tell Blender
which regions should be locked when the interface is locked.
Used to be https://archive.blender.org/developer/D17123.
Internally these are already using the same code path anyways, there's no point in maintaining two distinct nodes.
The obvious approach would be to add Anisotropy controls to the Glossy BSDF node and remove the Anisotropic BSDF node. However, that would break forward compability, since older Blender versions don't know how to handle the Anisotropy input on the Glossy BSDF node.
Therefore, this commit technically removes the Glossy BSDF node, uses versioning to replace them with an Anisotropic BSDF node, and renames that node to "Glossy BSDF".
That way, when you open a new file in an older version, all the nodes show up as Anisotropic BSDF nodes and render correctly.
This is a bit ugly internally since we need to preserve the old `idname` which now no longer matches the UI name, but that's not too bad.
Also removes the "Sharp" distribution option and replaces it with GGX, sets Roughness to zero and disconnects any input to the Roughness socket.

The goal is to make it more explicit and centralized operation to
assign and steal buffer data, with proper ownership tracking.
The buffers and ownership flags are wrapped into their dedicated
structures now.
There should be no functional changes currently, it is a preparation
for allowing implicit sharing of the ImBuf buffers. Additionally, in
the future it is possible to more buffer-specific information (such
as color space) next to the buffer data itself. It is also possible
to clean up the allocation flags (IB_rect, ...) to give them more
clear naming and not have stored in the ImBuf->flags as they are only
needed for allocation.
The most dangerous part of this change is the change of byte buffer
data from `int*` to `uint8_t*`. In a lot of cases the byte buffer was
cast to `uchar*`, so those casts are now gone. But some code is
operating on `int*` so now there are casts in there. In practice this
should be fine, since we only support 64bit platforms, so allocations
are aligned. The real things to watch out for here is the fact that
allocation and offsetting from the byte buffer now need an explicit 4
channel multiplier.
Once everything is C++ it will be possible to simplify public
functions even further.

The usage of the lib pointer was cryptic to say the least, it was
essentialy used to allow or not local IDs results in the mapping
old_id_pointer -> new_id_pointer lookup result.
Now:
- Explicitely pass a boolean to allow or not local ID as result in
lower-level code.
- Pass the 'self ID' pointer instead of its library to the whole
liblinking code (that was already the case in a few places).
Note that naming of the 'self id' pointer is currently very inconsistent
throughout the readfile liblink code, this will have to be cleaned up in
a separate step later. For now, `self_id` has been chosen for new code
as it matches the terminology in lib_query code.
The later change can also allow finer handling of lookup on undo, based
on how it was re-read (or not), should the need for this arise.
See: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/103343

Only use the term len & maxlen when they represent the length & maximum
length of a string. Instead of the available bytes to use.
Also include the data they're referencing as a suffix, otherwise it's
not always clear what the length is in reference to.
This adds support for building simulations with geometry nodes. A new
`Simulation Input` and `Simulation Output` node allow maintaining a
simulation state across multiple frames. Together these two nodes form
a `simulation zone` which contains all the nodes that update the simulation
state from one frame to the next.
A new simulation zone can be added via the menu
(`Simulation > Simulation Zone`) or with the node add search.
The simulation state contains a geometry by default. However, it is possible
to add multiple geometry sockets as well as other socket types. Currently,
field inputs are evaluated and stored for the preceding geometry socket in
the order that the sockets are shown. Simulation state items can be added
by linking one of the empty sockets to something else. In the sidebar, there
is a new panel that allows adding, removing and reordering these sockets.
The simulation nodes behave as follows:
* On the first frame, the inputs of the `Simulation Input` node are evaluated
to initialize the simulation state. In later frames these sockets are not
evaluated anymore. The `Delta Time` at the first frame is zero, but the
simulation zone is still evaluated.
* On every next frame, the `Simulation Input` node outputs the simulation
state of the previous frame. Nodes in the simulation zone can edit that
data in arbitrary ways, also taking into account the `Delta Time`. The new
simulation state has to be passed to the `Simulation Output` node where it
is cached and forwarded.
* On a frame that is already cached or baked, the nodes in the simulation
zone are not evaluated, because the `Simulation Output` node can return
the previously cached data directly.
It is not allowed to connect sockets from inside the simulation zone to the
outside without going through the `Simulation Output` node. This is a necessary
restriction to make caching and sub-frame interpolation work. Links can go into
the simulation zone without problems though.
Anonymous attributes are not propagated by the simulation nodes unless they
are explicitly stored in the simulation state. This is unfortunate, but
currently there is no practical and reliable alternative. The core problem
is detecting which anonymous attributes will be required for the simulation
and afterwards. While we can detect this for the current evaluation, we can't
look into the future in time to see what data will be necessary. We intend to
make it easier to explicitly pass data through a simulation in the future,
even if the simulation is in a nested node group.
There is a new `Simulation Nodes` panel in the physics tab in the properties
editor. It allows baking all simulation zones on the selected objects. The
baking options are intentially kept at a minimum for this MVP. More features
for simulation baking as well as baking in general can be expected to be added
separately.
All baked data is stored on disk in a folder next to the .blend file. #106937
describes how baking is implemented in more detail. Volumes can not be baked
yet and materials are lost during baking for now. Packing the baked data into
the .blend file is not yet supported.
The timeline indicates which frames are currently cached, baked or cached but
invalidated by user-changes.
Simulation input and output nodes are internally linked together by their
`bNode.identifier` which stays the same even if the node name changes. They
are generally added and removed together. However, there are still cases where
"dangling" simulation nodes can be created currently. Those generally don't
cause harm, but would be nice to avoid this in more cases in the future.

Node socket tooltips suffered from several issues.
- Some could not be translated because they were not properly
extracted, so extraction macros were added.
- Some were extracted but included newlines at the end which did not
get translated, such as `ss << TIP_("Geometry:\n")`, changed to
`ss << TIP_("Geometry:") << "\n"`.
- Some translations were not functional, such as:
`TIP_(attributes_num == 1 ? " Named Attribute" : " Named Attributes");`
because `TIP_()` needs to be around a single string.
- Some extraction macros had no effect and were removed, such as:
`.description(N_(leading_out_description));`
This is a no-op macro which can be used only around a string literal.

Needed for the simulation zone addition to the add menu search.
Link-drag search isn't supported yet, but a similar change should be
possible there.
Now the search item exposed through the public nodes namespace returns
several items directly, and the "after add function" is just handled as
a sub-case of that for convenience.
Before the add node search refactor and link-drag-search, nodes were
filtered out based on whether they worked with the active render
engine. For example, the Principled Hair BSDF node doesn't work with
EEVEE, so it isn't displayed in the UI. While we might want to relax
this in the future, we have no better way to show that they don't work
right now, so it's best to keep that behavior.
The filtering is implemented with a new node type callback, mainly
to reduce the boilerplate of implementing many node search callbacks
otherwise. It's also relatively clear this way I think. The only
downside is that now there are three poll functions.
I didn't port the "eevee_cycles_shader_nodes_poll" to the new
searches, since I don't understand the purpose of it.

This type will be used to store mesh edges in #106638, but it could
be used for anything else too. This commit adds support for:
- The new type in the Python API
- Editing the type in the edit mode "Attribute Set" operator
- Rendering the type in EEVEE and Cycles for all geometry types
- Geometry nodes attribute interpolation and mixing
- Viewing the type in the spreadsheet and using row filters
The attribute uses the `blender::int2` type in most code, and
the `vec2i` DNA type in C code when necessary. The enum names
are based on `INT32_2D` for consistency with `INT8` and `INT32`.

A buffer is a technical term most often referred to using the metaphor
of a "clipboard" in applications. However, the "clipboard" is usually
the system clipboard, used to carry data accross applications. To
avoid confusion, this replaces "clipboard" by "internal clipboard"
when not dealing with the system clipboard.
In addition, a few places still used the "[copy/paste] buffer"
terminology, so they are replaced with "internal clipboard as well.
The replacement from "[copy/paste] buffer" to "clipboard" was
undertaken in previous commits da6d6f99a8, 14b60c3a1c. This
commit should tackle the remaining occurrences.

- "Lens" can be a transparent object used in cameras, or specifically
its property of focal length
- "Empty" can be an adjective meaning void, or an object type. The
latter is already disambiguated using `ID_ID`
- "New" and "Old" are adjectives that can have agreements in some
languages
- "Modified" is an adjective that can have agreement in some languages
- "Clipping" can be a property of a camera, or a behavior of the
mirror modifier
- "Value" in HSV nodes, see #105113
- "Area" in the Face Area geometry node, can mean a measurement or a
window type
- "New" is an adjective that can have agreement
- "Tab" can be a UI element or a whitespace character
- "Volume" can mean a measurement or an object type. The latter is
already disambiguated using `ID_ID`
These changes introduce the new `BLT_I18NCONTEXT_TIME` translation

it.

When creating nodes by dragging a link, it can be convenient to
transfer values from input socket. For reference values, like images,
this may be necessary to avoid unnecessary data-block users. This
patch starts adding such a system. At this moment this only makes sense
for one node (Image Input), but this can be extended to work with other
reference types, different non-reference types and support auto-casting
(if a float is transferred to the Integer Input node).

The cycling method for the viewer connection starts searching from the next socket
after the last current connection. If a geometry socket is is the last connected
output this caused the method to jump to the next socket after the geometry,
potentially skipping over valid data sockets that are not viewed yet.
The solution is to ignore the geometry sockets in the cycling entirely and only
consider data sockets (i.e. non-geometry sockets).

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.
For example
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver()
{
}
```
becomes
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver() {}
```
Saves quite some vertical space, which is especially handy for
constructors.

The UI needs persistent pointers to catalog paths that it can pass
around via context. It was trying to manage this in own storage, but
this didn't work. Not entirely sure why - the menus get redrawn
continuously while assets load, and the root menu rebuilds the mentioned
storage every time. Maybe the submenus redraw a bit later, or the
keyboard navigation handling still accessed data from a previous redraw
somehow.
Either way, instead of managing own catalog path storage, point into the
asset system, which already has persistent storage for the catalog
paths.
