Replaces all usage by the the gpu_shader_math
equivalent. This is because the old shader
library was quite tangled.
This avoids dependency hell trying to
mix libraries.
Changes are split into isolated commits until
I had to do mass changes because of inter-
dependencies.

This avoid confusion outside of the shader node GLSL code.
The issue also is that Metal allow float to cast to bool
implicitly but this create a compilation error on
OpenGL.
This adds a new entry to the split sum LUT to isolate
the effect of the F82 tint.
The application of the tint part is similar to cycles
and uses the same way for precomputing the `b` factor.
Results matches almost perfectly to the extent of the
split sum approximation.
Note that this removes the unused LTC MAG LUT for
EEVEE next to make space for the new table. It can still
be added back if needed.

This keeps the behavior similar to the Disney BRDF, where 0.5
is neutral and lower/higher values respectively decrease/increase
the dielectric specular. But it's more correct in that it's not
an arbitrary scale on Fresnel, but rather adjusting the IOR.

because it contains reflectance and transmittance, so BSDF would be a
morep proper name.
Also rename BSDF to BRDF at places where only reflectance is returned.
Previously, the Principled BSDF used the Subsurface input to scale the radius.
When it was zero, it used a diffuse closure, otherwise a subsurface closure.
This sort of scaling input makes sense, but it should be specified in distance
units, rather than a 0..1 factor, so this commit changes the unit and renames
the input to Subsurface Scale.
Additionally, it adds support for mixing diffuse and subsurface components.
This is part of e.g. the OpenPBR spec, and the logic behind it is to support
modeling e.g. dirt or paint on top of skin. Before, materials would be either
fully diffuse (radius=0) or fully subsurface.
For typical materials, this mixing factor will be either zero or one
(just like metallic or transmission), but supporting fractional inputs makes
sense for e.g. smooth transitions at boundaries.
Another change is that there is no separate Subsurface Color anymore - before,
this was mixed with the Base Color using the Subsurface input as the factor,
but this was not really useful since that input was generally very small.
And finally, the handling of how the path enters the material for random walk
subsurface scattering is changed. Before, this always used lambertian (diffuse)
transmission, but this caused some problems, like overly white edges.
Instead, two different methods are now used, depending on the selected mode.
In Fixed Radius mode, the code assumes a simple medium boundary, and performs
refraction into the material using the main Roughness and IOR inputs.
Meanwhile, when not using Fixed Radius, the code assumes a more complex
boundary (as typically found on organic materials, e.g. skin), so the entry
bounce has a 50/50 chance of being either diffuse transmission or refraction
using the separate Subsurface IOR input and a fixed roughness of 1.
Credit for this method goes to Christophe Hery.

- Adds tint control, which simulates volumetric absorption inside the coating.
This results in angle-dependent saturation and affects all underlying layers
(diffuse, subsurface, metallic, transmission). It provides a physically-based
alternative to ad-hoc effects such as tinted specular highlights.
- Renames the component from "Clearcoat" to "Coat", since it's no longer
necessarily clear now. This matches naming in e.g. other renderers or OpenPBR.
- Adds an explicit Coat IOR input, in preparation for future smarter IOR logic
around the interaction between Coat and main IOR. This used to be hardcoded
to 1.5.
- Removes hardcoded 0.25 weight multiplier, and adds versioning code to update
existing files accordingly. OBJ import/export still applies the factor.
- Replaces the GTR1 microfacet component with regular GGX. This removes a corner
case in the Microfacet code, solves #53038, and makes us more consistent with
other standard surface shaders. The original Disney BSDF used GTR1, but it
doesn't appear that it caught on in the industry.

Schlick's approaximation used by EEVEE is not accurate near `IOR == 1`,
especially when IOR is exactly one, there is no specular reflection and
the material should appear diffuse.
Cycles bypass the issue by lerping between the f0 and f90 color using
the factor derived from real Fresnel curve. In EEVEE we can use the same
trick as in Glass BSDF to smooth the transition at `IOR == 1`.
Note that at `IOR < 1` there is still mismatch, because f0 is prebaked
in the BTDF look up table. In the future if we color f0 using
`specular_tint`, we can split the table and use the BTDF LUT for the
specular component too.
changes include:
* Use microfacet normal instead of macronormal. Previously Cycles used
macronormal for Glass BSDF and Transmission component in Principeld
BSDF, leading to artefacts at grazing angles. This has been corrected
in 5f9b518a8b and 89218b66c2. Now change EEVEE to match this behaviour.
* GGX distribution is now darker due to the shadowing-masking term,
while Multiscatter GGX preserves energy. This now matches Cycles too.

When GLSL sources were first included in Blender they were treated as
data (like blend files) and had no license header.
Since then GLSL has been used for more sophisticated features
(EEVEE & real-time compositing)
where it makes sense to include licensing information.
Add SPDX copyright headers to *.glsl files, matching headers used for
C/C++, also include GLSL files in the license checking script.
As leading C-comments are now stripped,
added binary size of comments is no longer a concern.

Fixes NaN in Vector Displacement node caused by the normalization of
0, 0, 0 vectors.
This fixes both visual rendering issues and an "illegal address" error
on the GPU. The "illegal address" error came from the Light Tree
Sampling code not handling the NaN normals well, leading to weird code
paths being taken, eventually leading to a kernel_assert and a
user facing illegal address error.

Implements the paper [A Microfacet-based Hair Scattering
Model](https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/cgf.14588) by
Weizhen Huang, Matthias B. Hullin and Johannes Hanika.
### Features:
- This is a far-field model, as opposed to the previous near-field
Principled Hair BSDF model. The hair is expected to be less noisy, but
lower roughness values takes longer to render due to numerical
integration along the hair width. The hair also appears to be flat when
viewed up-close.
- The longitudinal width of the scattering lobe differs along the
azimuth, providing a higher contrast compared to the evenly spread
scattering in the near-field Principled Hair BSDF model. For a more
detailed comparison, please refer to the original paper.
- Supports elliptical cross-sections, adding more realism as human hairs
are usually elliptical. The orientation of the cross-section is aligned
with the curve normal, which can be adjusted using geometry nodes.
Default is minimal twist. During sampling, light rays that hit outside
the hair width will continue propogating as if the material is
transparent.
- There is non-physical modulation factors for the first three
lobes (Reflection, Transmission, Secondary Reflection).
### Missing:
- A good default for cross-section orientation. There was an
attempt (9039f76928) to default the orientation to align with the curve
normal in the mathematical sense, but the stability (when animated) is
unclear and it would be a hassle to generalise to all curve types. After
the model is in main, we could experiment with the geometry nodes team
to see what works the best as a default.

This PR adds the Lacunarity and Normalize inputs to the Noise node
similar to the Voronoi node.
The Lacunarity input controls the scale factor by which each
successive Perlin noise octave is scaled. Which was previously hard
coded to a factor of 2.
The Noise node normalizes its output to the [0, 1] range by default.
The Normalize option makes it possible for the user to disable that.
To keep the behavior consistent with past versions it is enabled by
default.
To make the aforementioned normalization control easer to implement,
the fractal noise code now accumulates signed noise and remaps the
final sum, as opposed to accumulating positive [0, 1] noise.

This replaces the Sheen model used in the Principled BSDF with the
model from #108869 that is already used in the Sheen BSDF now.
The three notable differences are:
- At full intensity (Sheen = 1.0), the new model is significantly
stronger than the old one. For existing files, the intensity is
adjusted to keep the overall look similar.
- The Sheen Tint input is now a color input, instead of the
previous blend factor between white and the base color.
- There is now a Sheen roughness control, which can be used to
tweak the look between velvet-like and dust-like.

The Voronoi distance output is clamped at 8, which is apparent for distance
metrics like Minkowski with low exponents.
This patch fixes that by setting the initial distance of the search loop to
FLT_MAX instead of 8. And for the Smooth variant of F1, the "h" parameter is set
to 1 for the first iteration using a signal value, effectively ignoring the
initial distance and using the computed distance at the first iteration instead.

The Voronoi Smooth F1 mode breaks when the Smoothness is 0 for OSL. This is

Fractal noise is the idea of evaluating the same noise function multiple times with
different input parameters on each layer and then mixing the results. The individual
layers are usually called octaves.
The number of layers is controlled with a "Detail" slider.
The "Lacunarity" input controls a factor by which each successive layer gets scaled.
The existing Noise node already supports fractal noise. Now the Voronoi Noise node
supports it as well. The node also has a new "Normalize" property that ensures that
the output values stay in a [0.0, 1.0] range. That is except for the F2 feature where
in rare cases the output may be outside that range even with "Normalize" turned on.
How the individual octaves are mixed depends on the feature and output socket:
- F1/Smooth F1/F2:
- Distance/Color output:
The individual Distance/Color octaves are first multiplied by a factor of
`Roughness ^ (#layers - 1.0)` then added together to create the final output.
- Position output:
Each Position octave gets linearly interpolated with the combined output of the
previous octaves. The Roughness input serves as an interpolation factor with
0.0 resutling in only using the combined output of the previous octaves and
1.0 resulting in only using the current highest octave.
- Distance to Edge:
- Distance output:
The Distance octaves are mixed exactly like the Position octaves for F1/Smooth F1/F2.
It should be noted that Voronoi Noise is a relatively slow noise function, especially
at higher dimensions. Increasing the "Detail" makes it even slower. Therefore, when
optimizing a scene one should consider trying to use simpler noise functions instead
of Voronoi if the final result is close enough.

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 attribute node already allows accessing attributes associated
with objects and meshes, which allows changing the behavior of the
same material between different objects or instances. The same idea
can be extended to an even more global level of layers and scenes.
Currently view layers provide an option to replace all materials
with a different one. However, since the same material will be applied
to all objects in the layer, varying the behavior between layers while
preserving distinct materials requires duplicating objects.
Providing access to properties of layers and scenes via the attribute
node enables making materials with built-in switches or settings that
can be controlled globally at the view layer level. This is probably
most useful for complex NPR shading and compositing. Like with objects,
the node can also access built-in scene properties, like render resolution
or FOV of the active camera. Lookup is also attempted in World, similar
to how the Object mode checks the Mesh datablock.
In Cycles this mode is implemented by replacing the attribute node with
the attribute value during sync, allowing constant folding to take the
values into account. This means however that materials that use this
feature have to be re-synced upon any changes to scene, world or camera.
The Eevee version uses a new uniform buffer containing a sorted array
mapping name hashes to values, with binary search lookup. The array
is limited to 512 entries, which is effectively limitless even
considering it is shared by all materials in the scene; it is also
just 16KB of memory so no point trying to optimize further.
The buffer has to be rebuilt when new attributes are detected in a
material, so the draw engine keeps a table of recently seen attribute
names to minimize the chance of extra rebuilds mid-draw.

Sun Disc is currently not supported because it'll need special handling - on the one hand, I'm not sure if Eevee would handle a 1e6 coming out of a background shader without issues, and on the other hand it won't actually cast sharp shadows anyways.
I guess we'd want to internally add a sun to the lamps if Sun Disc is enabled, but getting that right is tricky since the user could e.g. swap RGB channels in the node tree and the lamp wouldn't match that.
Anyways, that can be handled later, the sky itself is already a start.
