Fix#112697: Skip unavaliable UV maps on VBO upload
The list of available UV maps is generated for the evaluated object,
however if any modifier generates UV maps (for example Geometry
Nodes) it is possible the evaluated object contains UV maps which are
not present in the base mesh. So when only the base mesh is uploaded,
for example in the UV editor, UV maps present in the list are not
guaranteed to exist.

This patch adds support for full precision compositing for the Realtime
Compositor. A new precision option was added to the compositor to change
between half and full precision compositing, where the Auto option uses
half for the viewport compositor and the interactive render compositor,
while full is used for final renders.
The compositor context now need to implement the get_precision() method
to indicate its preferred precision. Intermediate results will be stored
using the context's precision, with a number of exceptions that can use
a different precision regardless of the context's precision. For
instance, summed area tables are always stored in full float results
even if the context specified half float. Conversely, jump flooding
tables are always stored in half integer results even if the context
specified full. The former requires full float while the latter has no
use for it.
Since shaders are created for a specific precision, we need two variants
of each compositor shader to account for the context's possible
precision. However, to avoid doubling the shader info count and reduce
boilerplate code and development time, an automated mechanism was
employed. A single shader info of whatever precision needs to be added,
then, at runtime, the shader info can be adjusted to change the
precision of the outputs. That shader variant is then cached in the
static cache manager for future processing-free shader retrieval.
Therefore, the shader manager was removed in favor of a cached shader
container in the static cache manager.
A number of utilities were added to make the creation of results as well as
the retrieval of shader with the target precision easier. Further, a
number of precision-specific shaders were removed in favor of more
generic ones that utilizes the aforementioned shader retrieval
mechanism.

Use the same attribute conversion class for PBVH and regular
mesh attribute extraction. This makes the GPU formats we use
for each attribute type more explicit and centralizes the conversions
from the attribute types to the GPU types. It's also a bit more aligned
to how we could use implicit sharing for GPU vertex buffer data.
Unfortunately it isn't possible to use this same code for curves
and point clouds because they use textures for their evaluated data,
and 3-wide vectors (e.g. `float3`) aren't supported on GPUs with our
current texture abstraction. For generic attributes, the long term
approach will probably be to use an SSBO instead.

Fix an issue in `find_first_valid` where Nvidia would incorrectly
increment `src` after return.
This should fix the issue where some tiles would stay corrupted
until resetting EEVEE.
Initialize tiles_data in `TestAlloc` so it doesn't fail in debug builds.

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.

This adds a new way of computing occlusion using visibility bitmask. To
make it more algorithm agnostic, we name it horizon scan.
This cleans-up / simplify the code compared to the Horizon based solution.
There is no more trickery for fading influence of distant samples which
makes the result match cycles closer.
This introduces a new thickness option. Maintaining it relatively low
makes it possible to avoid over occlusion because of in front geometry.
Making it too low will cause under occlusion.

Adds a new scene tool setting `use_grease_pencil_multi_frame_editing`.
The `foreach_*_drawing` functions are moved to the `ed::greasepencil` namespace in the editor, since they are now context sensitive and depend on the toolsetting. They are now named `retrieve_editable_drawings` and `retrieve_visible_drawings` and return
an array of drawings instead of calling a callback function.

* Add viewport display support for Sphere and Plane probes.
* Make all probe display options per object instead of per scene.
(Uses the already existing `LIGHTPROBE_FLAG_SHOW_DATA`
and adds a new `data_display_size ` property to the `LightProbe` DNA)
* Python `show_data` property has been deprecated and renamed to
`use_data_display` (`data_display_size ` has been exposed as well).

Previous fix partially fixed the issue, there were still some left over
issues where that alpha channel wasn't loaded correctly and therefore
could lead to fully transparent stick bones.

Changes to edit mode mesh overlays, use hue shift instead of color
fading/darkening for selection mode visual differentiation, and some
theme changes to improve the display of mesh edges and faces with good
selection visibility.
- Removed "edge" toggle from edit mode overlays panel.
- No longer halves the edge and face alpha depending on selection mode.
Half the face alpha in wire-frame mode. For better visibility on most
themes.

Use more modern approaches for supporting all generic attribute types,
rather than hardcoding all of the types and mistakenly correlating types
and domains.
A "Converter" template class handles conversion to GPU data and
describing the GPU format. The class is based on recent work in Cycles
attribute upload and is meant to replace the `AttributeTypeConverter`
class in `extract_vbo_attributes.cc`. I will do that as a separate step.
This structure will give build errors if new attribute types are added
but not supported here, preventing the situation described in the
report.
All generic attribute types are supported now, consistently with non
sculpt mode drawing. The edge domain isn't supported though.
Typically edges are more costly and complex to access, and interpolation
is less well defined anyway.

In certain cases bones can disappear in pose mode. The cause was
that the alpha channel was not set in all cases and might use uninitialized
memory as alpha value.

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.
When a spherical reflection probe is in the scene and the viewport
is set to a lookdev world the scene was constantly being updated.
The cause for this was that the reflection probes where updated when
the lookdev shader was compiled, but that is almost always the case.
This PR fixes this by checking the compile status and compile status
change. Only the first time the world has been compiled the world
reflection probe will be marked dirty.

This PR will use "EEVEE (Legacy)" for the legacy EEVEE and renames
"EEVEE Next" to "EEVEE".
When starting Blender EEVEE Legacy will still be the default. We
will change the default to EEVEE when all missing features have been
addressed.
After that we can cleanup idnames and panels etc.

Previous commit 9333336a73f9e116771a52a2caa96455ea345c71
broke export rendering in Metal due to the command
submission not being flushed between samples.
This would lead to ghosting in export images due
to memory synchronization issues and GPU
scheduling dependency graph problems.
The in-flight memory could also get
extremely high if exporting high numbers
of samples due to all commands being
enqueued within a single submission.
Patch resolves this by flushing for
each render frame sample and
ensuring intermediate in-flight
memory remains controlled.

Due to missing logic reflection probe updates where not always
performed. There were multiple artifacts:
* Lookdev Worlds where Black Until the Scene world was rendered.
Issue was that the lookdev world didn't initialized its atlas
coordinates.
* Lookdev world should only retrigger reflection probe update when
material is compiled
* When world is updated, reflection probes should be updated; this
might require a redraw when reflection probe draw passes aren't
updated this sample.
