This commit allows the `WITH_UI_TESTS` CMake option to be used on all
platforms, not only Linux. The existing functionality to use the Weston
compositor was moved into the `WITH_UI_TESTS_HEADLESS` option. When
these tests are run with only `WITH_UI_TESTS`, a visible instance of
Blender is opened up for testing.

Adds a new CMake option so that these tests can be run independently of
other tests, and so that existing tests that use WITH_GPU_RENDER_TESTS
are not forced to run these sculpt tests.

This change brings the following improvements on the user level
- Support of GPUs with gfx12 architecture
- New HIP-RT library which in addition to the gfx12 support brings
various bug-fixes.
The known limitation of gfx12 is that OpenImageDenoiser does not yet
support this GPU architecture. This means that while Cycles will use the
full advantage of the gfx12 (including hardware accelerated ray-tracing),
denoising will only be possible on CPU, or secondary gfx11 or below GPU.
This is something that requires a change in OIDN and it is to late to do
it for Blender 4.4, but it is something to look forward for Blender 4.5.
The gfx12 changes for the pre-compiled kernels is rather trivial,
so it comes together (in the same PR) as the bigger HIP-RT change.
On the development side this change brings the following improvements:
- One step compile and link (much simpler CMake rules)
- Embedding BVH binaries in hiprt dll (which makes it easier to package
and load, without relying on special path configuration)

This adds support for Overlay tests.
There are some differences with how we handle tests for other engines:
- The renders are captured using `bpy.ops.render.opengl()`, but this
won't work on our GPU build bots.
- A single blend file can run multiple tests by outputting a txt list
with the test names.
- Each overlay test blend file requires a matching script file with
the same name inside `tests/python/overlay/`.
- To reproduce a specific test state you can run
`blender "(...)/tests/data/overlay/<test>.blend" -P "(...)/tests/python/overlay/<test>.py" -- --test <test-number>`.
Note:
The current test permutations are WIP, so reference images are not
committed to the data repo for now.

Enables building of a Cubin for GPUs based on Blackwell architecture
if CUDA toolkit version 12.8 or higher is installed.
Only added sm_120 to the default set, since it is the one relevant for
consumer GPUs (RTX 5090 etc.) that are generally used with Blender.

Support thumbnail that shows the file contents instead
of the default blend file icon for all files in Finder.
Some files may still have the usual blender icon as thumbnail
depending on their contents.
blender-thumbnailer process is kept alive by the system
in the background and is invoked by QuickLook when needed.
The checkbox to disable the extension is present in
the Settings app.
It will NOT be an interactive "Preview" that allows richer
interactions like Panning viewport, or rotating 3D objects.
The python debugger in Visual Studio for has been broken for years
but the upstream project over at https://github.com/microsoft/PTVS
show hopeful signs of life once in a while, so there is hope that
at one point this will start working again. That being said people
do keep turning this option on and end up disappointed it isn't
working and they spend a whole bunch of time on trying to get it to
work. So for now rather than removing this functionality
completely, just disable it.
* Some libraries like Alembic and OpenColorIO for a long time removed
header dependencies on Boost.
* No need to have BOOST_LIBRARIES anymore, only BOOST_PYTHON_LIBRARIES
is a direct dependency through USD headers.
* OpenVDB is no longer a static library, no need to link its dependencies.

Extract Boykov-Kolmogorov max flow algorithm from boost::graph. As part
of work towards removing Boost as a Blender dependency.
Together with #133347 this removes the last direct Blender dependency
on Boost.

The goal of this test is to try to import some critical py scripts with the
system python of the building machine.
The main target is to ensure that these py scripts remain usable by all
buildbot machines, as some of them are using fairly outdated python
versions.
Current status:
* Scripts in `build_files` and `docs` are checked.
* Some python scripts in `build_files` were 'reverted' to be compatible
with older required python version currently (3.6).
* A few scripts are excluded from the test, mostly because they use Blender's
`bpy` module, which means they are only intended to be ran with Blender's
python anyway.
* The test is only enabled for Linux buildbots currently, as they use the
oldest Python by far.
Notes:
* Some more scripts are likely to be moved around in the future.
* Whether these tests need to be enabled on windows or macos platforms remains
an open question.

Both the draw manager and gpu backend used the same compilation
directive for enablement. This PR seperates them into
`WITH_GPU_DRAW_TESTS` for draw manager related tests and
`WITH_GPU_BACKEND_TESTS` for gpu backend related tests.

Render tests can still fail. This change will disable them until they
are in a better shape. Reduces confusion when running cycles GPU render
tests.
Known issues:
- Render in batch can take forever due to a locking issue
- Headless rendering is still in development
- Particle hair rendering is broken.

This changes the location of the Draco library installation path.
The new location is at the root of addons_core/io_scene_gltf2 addon, as the library is created for this addon only.
This will solve issues where the gltf addon couldn't find the library in case of global python installation or custom script/lib paths

This commit adds support for clang-tidy checks during compilation on
macOS, which can now be enabled using the optional `WITH_CLANG_TIDY`
CMake variable.
The clang-tidy executable doesn't need to be separately installed since
CMake will pick up the executable from the LLVM pre-compiled library.
This commit also expands the coverage of clang-tidy checks to
Objective-C/C++, for which checks were enabled in PR #128334.

This implements the proposal from #124512. For that it contains the following
changes:
* Remove the global override of `new`/`delete` when `WITH_CXX_GUARDEDALLOC` was
enabled.
* Always use `MEM_CXX_CLASS_ALLOC_FUNCS` where it is currently used. This used
to be guarded by `WITH_CXX_GUARDEDALLOC` in some but not all cases. This means
that a few classes which didn't use our guarded allocator by default before,
are now using it.
