A windows pending actions wasn't cleared for new windows.
Although I'm not aware of user visible bugs, this prevents
unpredictable updates for new windows.
This PR works around an issue where zero-filled motion TLAS instance descriptors can cause unexpected hangs during downstream TLAS builds on M3. Instead of zeroing the descriptor we insert an explicit "null" BLAS, achieving the same result.

Remove `Material > Shadow Mode` and use `Object > Shadow Ray Visibility`
and `Material > Transparent Shadows` instead.
The versioning system auto-updates objects/materials in EEVEE
scenes so their behavior is as close as possible to the previous one.
Update Cycles to use the native `use_transparent_shadow` property.
Note:
Material changes don't set any `recalc` flag on the objects that use
them, so the EEVEE Next shadow maps don't update when changing
settings/nodes.
Fixing this issue is required for 4.1, but it's out of the scope of this PR.

In order to speedup compilation, we upgrade IGC to 1.0.14828.26 along
with ocloc and the associated dependencies.
We also bump min-driver version accordingly to 26918.

Done by passing USES_TERMINAL to the add_custom_command().
This allows to see sub-command messages early on, before they
are finished executing.
This should help buildbots to "see" that the kernels are still
being compiled and not kill the build because it did not output
anything in a long time.

This PR adds tunings for the [newly announced](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctkW3V0Mh-k) M3 family of chips. In particular, MetalRT will be enabled as the automatic default for intersection testing on M3 and beyond to take advantage of hardware raytracing. This will result in significant path-tracing speedups, as well as faster BVH builds.

`shaderOutputLayer` and `shaderOutputViewportIndex` are optional in
Blender, but when used they should be activated on physical device level.
This wasn't the case and when used the validation layer reported an error.
This PR activates the features when creating the device if the features
are available.

Adjust clamping of inputs in the Principled BSDF to avoid errors and
inconsistencies between render engines, while trying to leave as many
inputs as possible unclamped for artisitc purposes.

The last good commit was 8474716abb.
After this commits from main were pushed to blender-v4.0-release. These are
being reverted.
Commits a4880576dc from to b26f176d1a that happend afterwards were meant for
4.0, and their contents is preserved.
_(NOTE: This is a clone of [PR 114067](https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/114067), but targeting `blender-v4.0-release` as originally intended)_
This PR removes the "experimental" disclaimer from the MetalRT control now that the unit tests all render correctly with it enabled. As well as "Off" and "On", this adds a third "Auto" setting - a new default which can be used to pick the best option.

This fixes an issue where animation frames occasionally get corrupted (e.g. when rendering "Pokedstudio" Blender 2.77 splash screen). This happens when the KernelData is refreshed but the MD5 isn't immediately regenerated which can cause the wrong PSO to be selected.

While the fix worked in my tests, the compositor is allowed to ignore
a requested window state change which could have entered an eternal
loop. Avoid this by limiting the while loop to 2x round-trips.
Even though the window was maximized, the non-maximized size was used.
Since the display size was used the window would be slightly larger,
clipping the status bar in GNOME.
As the window state will have been initialized, read the current window
state instead of assuming normal so changes are properly detected.
Also note that the cause of #107314 has been fixed up-stream.
This PR adds `@autoreleasepool` blocks around functions that have been observed to create hidden temporary NSObjects, and eventually cause command buffer failures. A couple of allocations needed to be tweaked in order to maintain correct retain/release behaviour. This PR also fixes the command buffer error text to show more useful information.

When the output wasn't fractionally scaled but the compositor supports
fractional scaling, new windows were smaller than requested.
Caused by [0] which was incorrectly calculating the non-fractional scale
used by LIBDECOR (which isn't accessible via it's API).
Resolve by only using fractional scaling logic when outputs
have a fractional component.
