This patches refactors the compositor File Output mechanism and
implements the file output node for the Realtime Compositor. The
refactor was done for the following reasons:
1. The existing file output mechanism relied on a global EXR image
resource where the result of each compositor execution for each
view was accumulated and stored in the global resource, until the
last view is executed, when the EXR is finally saved. Aside from
relying on global resources, this can cause effective memory leaks
since the compositor can be interrupted before the EXR is written and
closed.
2. We need common code to share between all compositors since we now
have multiple compositor implementations.
3. We needed to take the opportunity to fix some of the issues with the
existing implementation, like lossy compression of data passes,
and inability to save single values passes.
The refactor first introduced a new structure called the Compositor
Render Context. This context stores compositor information related to
the render pipeline and is persistent across all compositor executions
of all views. Its extended lifetime relative to a single compositor
execution lends itself well to store data that is accumulated across
views. The context currently has a map of File Output objects. Those
objects wrap a Render Result structure and can be used to construct
multi-view images which can then be saved after all views are executed
using the existing BKE_image_render_write function.
Minor adjustments were made to the BKE and RE modules to allow saving
using the BKE_image_render_write function. Namely, the function now
allows the use of a source image format for saving as well as the
ability to not save the render result as a render by introducing two new
default arguments. Further, for multi-layer EXR saving, the existent of
a single unnamed render layer will omit the layer name from the EXR
channel full name, and only the pass, view, and channel ID will remain.
Finally, the Render Result to Image Buffer conversion now take he number
of channels into account, instead of always assuming color channels.
The patch implements the File Output node in the Realtime Compositor
using the aforementioned mechanisms, replaces the implementation of the
CPU compositor using the same Realtime Compositor implementation, and
setup the necessary logic in the render pipeline code.

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.
This is cached in Render, and gets cleared along with render pass GPU
textures when there is no editor open using it, or a new final render is
started.
The context and texture pool are cached. But the evaluator is re-created
every time as this only runs on compositing node changes, which require
recreating it anyway (unlike the viewport where e.g. camera navigation
does not need a new evaluator).
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108909
* Enable "Experimental Compositors" in preferences, then choose
Realtime GPU execution mode in node editor sidebar.
* Only supports combined pass input and Render Result combined output.
* No viewer nodes, no file output nodes, and no node previews yet.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108629
* Provide render data, node tree and color management directly instead
of going through scene, as these may be modified by the render pipeline.
Also better for cached texture hits this way.
* Change legacy pass type to pass name.
* Skip file output node when not doing final render.
* Gracefully handle incomplete render results.

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.

Make a copy of ImageFormatData that contains the effective color management
settings, and pass that along to the various functions. This will make it
possible to add more complex logic later.
For compositing nodes, passing along view and display settings through
many functions made it harder to add additional settings, so just get those
from the scene now.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D14401
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.
Follow the SPDX license specification: https://spdx.org/licenses
- C/C++/objc/objc++
- Python
- Shell Scripts
- CMake, GNUmakefile
While most of the source tree has been included
- `./extern/` was left out.
- `./intern/cycles` & `./intern/atomic` are also excluded because they
use different header conventions.
doc/license/SPDX-license-identifiers.txt has been added to list SPDX all
used identifiers.
See P2788 for the script that automated these edits.
