This rescales the whole scene by its root transform to match the same
visual size while not forcing the user to wait for scale to be applied to
each object.
This is requested by studios whose main applications / USD scenes are
in CM, because referencing and payloading scenes from disparate scales
can cause issues at resolution time.
If "Apply Unit Scale Conversion" is unchecked on import, the user now
has the ability to bring the objects in with a scale factor of 1.0, so that the
objects may be edited as if Blender's scene units matches the imported
stage's.
At export time, a "Stage Meters Per Unit" value can be chosen from a list
of common measurements, as well as setting a custom value.

This caused build errors on the docs builder, I can't seem to reproduce
locally, so revert for now and have another look at some point in the
future.
Sadly as these changes usually go, this took 5c515e26bb and
2f0fc7fc9f with it as well.

Conversion from [0-1] float value ranges to [0-255] integer char ones
was left in Alembic importer, when the internal Blender storage for
these values was converted from a char in the old `MEdge` struct to a
regular float attribute.
Delay the creation of the `prim_map` data structure until the last
possible moment. This is more efficient in the majority of cases where
no Import hooks have been defined. Additionally, it removes the need for
locking in the `read_object_data` code path once we implement concurrent
loading.

- Initialize PLYExportParams/PLYImportParams members
- Use enum class in ePLYVertexColorMode
- Pass import/export params as reference
This kind of fixes#126337: previously in the PLY Import node the
import paramters were all set to zero/false values, instead of sane
defaults. Which meant that it ignored vertex colors.
Importing USD `quatf` types was erroneously left disabled after recent
work this past summer for better attribute support. It is already
correctly enabled and validated for Export.
The `half` and `double` variants must still be skipped for now though.

Commit 0df5d8220b made a change to have the `USDStageReader` only keep
a reference to the ImportSettings struct. This isn't safe to do because
there's scenarios where the ImportSettings might be defined as a stack
variable but the reader outlives the lifetime of that variable. This
happens inside `USD_create_handle` where the reader is returned to the
caller for instance.
Fix this, and the original issue which lead to the change causing the
regression, by having `USDStageReader` own ImportSettings directly so
it's more obvious that it is A) tied to the lifetime of the reader and
B) can no longer become out of sync with a caller's own ImportSettings
data (since that no longer exists).

Import edge crease values and properly configure any added subdivision

Building the FCurve keyframes one at a time leads to quadratic runtime
behavior due to how the underlying BezTriple array is resized in
`animrig::insert_bezt_fcurve`. Instead, pre-allocate the entire array
upfront and assign the keyframes directly since we are already iterating
our time samples in-order.
In the event that fewer keyframes are ultimately assigned, rare since
this indicates some form of bad data which we skip during iteration, we
will reallocate to the appropriate size right before recalculating the
fcurve handles.
Total import time for the 3000 frame Elephant test asset [1] drops from
~4650 ms to 120 ms, a 38x speedup. A more typical 250 frame armature
animation shows a more modest 1.5-2x reduction in overall import time.

While adding tests I found that metaball export has been broken since
Blender 3.4. It would export each metaball geometry twice.
This looks to have been a side effect of a change to `object_dupli.cc`
which no longer sets the `no_draw` flag for metaballs[1]. With the flag
unset we would end up visiting this particular object twice.
Use a direct check for Metaballs now and add test coverage for the
scenario in general.

When importing an USD, the Blender object names do not necessarily match
Prim names:
```
#usda 1.0
def Xform "xform1"
{
def Mesh "MyObject" # Will be imported as "MyObject"
}
def Xform "xform2"
{
def Mesh "MyObject" # Will be imported as "MyObject.001"
}
def Xform "xform2"
{
def Mesh "MyObject" # Will be imported as "MyObject.002"
}
```
This makes it difficult in the [USD Import Hooks]
(https://docs.blender.org/api/current/bpy.types.USDHook.html) to link a
Blender object back to its source Prim for additional processing. A
typical use cases for games is to generate UVs, create and apply a
material on the fly when importing a collision shape that does not have
a visual representation (hence no materials) based on some Prim
attributes, but that the artist needs to differenciate in Blender's
viewport.
The Import context exposes a new method `get_prim_map()` that returns a
`dict` of `prim path` / `list of Blender ID`.
For example, given the following USD scene,
```
/
|--XformThenCube [def Xform]
| `--Cube [def Cube]
|--XformThenXformCube [def Xform]
| `--XformIntermediate [def Xform]
| `--Cube [def Mesh]
|--Cube [def Cube]
`--Material [def Material]
`--Principled_BSDF [def Shader]
```
the `get_prim_map()` method will return a map as:
```python
@static_method
def on_import(import_context):
pprint(import_context.get_prim_map())
```
```json
{
"/Cube": [bpy.data.objects["Cube.002"], bpy.data.meshes["Cube.002"]],
"/XformThenCube": [bpy.data.objects["XformThenCube"]],
"/XformThenCube/Cube": [bpy.data.objects["Cube"], bpy.data.meshes["Cube"]],
"/XformThenXformCube": [bpy.data.objects["XformThenXformCube"]],
"/XformThenXformCube/XformIntermediate": [bpy.data.objects["XformIntermediate"]],
"/XformThenXformCube/XformIntermediate/Cube": [bpy.data.objects["Cube.001"], bpy.data.meshes["Cube.001"]],
"/Material": [bpy.data.materials["Material"]],
}
```

Currently each node's position is stored in the coordinate space of
its parent. To find the location of a node on the canvas, we have to
apply the translation of each of its parents. Also, nodes have hidden
"offset" values used while transforming frame nodes. Together,
those made the system much more complicated than necessary,
and they made the Python API ineffective.
This commit removes usage of the offset values and moves nodes
to be stored in the "global" space of the node canvas. It also resolves
some weird behavior when resizing frame nodes, and fixes a few bugs.
The change is forward compatible, so we still write files with nodes in
the old parent-space format. In 5.0 the conversion when writing can be
removed. The existing Python API also stays the same. A new
"location_absolute" property gives node locations in global space,
and changing the old property also moves the child nodes of frames.
Resolves#92458, #72904.

Make use of our sparse value writer in more places. Namely, when using
animated Camera or Light properties, this will prevent a needless stream
of unchanging values being written into the USD file [1]. Skeletons and
armatures benefit too but less so as typically the primary benefit only
applies to the comparatively small `scale` transform attribute, which
typically remains unchanged from frame to frame.
The newly added `set_attribute` common code can, and eventually will, be
used to reduce boilerplate elsewhere where we do the same sparse writing
dance.

While adding tests for subd import I discovered that our vertex crease
data was imported incorrectly.
This PR adds tests and fixes:
- We tried to read crease sharpness data as ints instead of floats. This
caused the import process to early-return, meaning we never load any
data at all
- Empty USD data would still cause us to create the `crease_vert`
attribute unnecessarily
- Sharpness data needs clamped to 0-1 to handle USD's SHARPNESS_INFINITE
value of 10.0
- We need to fill the `crease_vert` span with 0's since incoming USD
data may not have values set for all the verts

Rather than using a default "Anim" name when exporting armature
animations, use the animation's Action name instead. Likewise use the
UsdSkelAnimation name for the Action's name during import.
Blendshapes/shapekeys still use the default "Anim" name as there's no
action for these situations.

Adds support of NURBS weights or "rat bspline" in OBJ terms.
Tries to guess Blender knot mode better:
- Detects and closes loops. This decision is based on geometry only. No metadata is provided in OBJ for this, so importer has checkbox to disable this feature.

The wrong ObjectIdentifier was used when trying to see if the object is
a parent to something else in the export graph. This lead to accessing
an invalid iterator which will assert with MSVC in Debug configurations.

When OBJ file contains vertex normals, this can in some cases confuse
the custom loop normals code inside Blender. Since it does not simply
just use custom normals, but rather projects them into "lnor space".
But that "lnor space" calculation can go haywire sometimes, when
degenerate faces are present in the input.
Mark zero-area faces as "sharp" before doing custom normals. This will
make them not try to share the "smooth fan" lnor space with other faces,
and things will look correct.
Previously, OBJ importer was (wrongly) always setting all faces
as "sharp", which avoided this problem, but caused other issues.

These are converted on startup to the new type. There are still
some references left, mostly where it looked like there still needs
to be changes to properly deal with the new object type.
Add a `short2` attribute type, intended to store the existing
`CD_CUSTOMLOOPNORMAL` custom data type in order to move the custom
normal storage to generic attributes. This type probably won't get much
use besides that, but generally we don't have reasons not to add these
generic types, besides binary size. In the future we should consolidate
usage of `convert_to_static_type` to avoid large binary size increases
(about 700KB here) for this sort of addition.
This is the first step of #130484.

When EEVEE next removed the Alpha Threshold option a node graph setup
was used instead. Based on a USD test asset[1] the original code was
designed around only using the Image A channel during import to wire
up the nodes. However, the other channels (R, G, or B) are just as
valid.
We now handle this by wiring up the Separate RGB node, that is already
inserted for the scenario in general, to the shader nodes handling the
threshold calculation. Also adds additional test coverage for both
export and import as well.
The Round and LessThan+OneMinus networks remain the only shapes that
will be recognized for the processing.

The existing point instancer reader is slightly refactored to allow for
animated setups. The primary change is simply to inherit from
`USDGeomReader` rather than `USDXformReader`. This allows access to the
`read_geometry` API used by the cache modifier.
The existing `read_object_data` method is split into two parts with
`read_geometry` loading per-frame USD data and `read_object_data`
coordinating the initial loading process, including creating the GN node
tree just once.
A new test has been added (a variation of the nested point instancer
file) with time samples on various attributes and on both point
instancers. This also fixes#129502 and the file provided in that issue.
