Part of #136993.
Share as much of the ShaderCompiler implementations as possible.
Remove the ShaderCompiler/ShaderCompilerGeneric split and make most of
its functions non virtual.
Move the `get_compiler` function from `Context` to `GPUBackend` and
creation/deletion to `GPUBackend::init/delete_resources`.
Add a `batch_cancel` function to `ShaderCompiler` (needed for the
GPUPass refactor).
As a nice extra, the multithreaded OpenGL compilation has become faster
too.
The barbershop materials + EEVEE static shaders have gone from 27s to
22s.
I have not observed any performance difference on Vulkan or Metal.

This is completely unused, not implemented for the Vulkan backend, and
seems to add quite a bit of complexity to the Metal and OpenGL backends.
It was added for EEVEE legacy motion blur, and the last use was removed
along with EEVEE legacy. We're probably better off not maintaining it since
we should avoid duplicating vertex buffer data anyway.

Update the `ShaderCompilerGeneric` to support deferred compilation
using the batch compilation API, so we can get rid of
`drw_manager_shader`.
This approach also allows supporting non-blocking compilation
for static shaders.
This shouldn't cause any behavior changes at the moment, since batch
compilation is not yet used when parallel compilation is disabled.
This adds a `GPUWorker` and a `GPUSecondaryContext` as an easy to use
wrapper for managing secondary GPU contexts.

Framebuffers are getting freed in the GPUContext base class destructor. But
the framebuffer destructors use the MTL/VK/GLContext derived class, whose
destructor has already completed at this point. So these contexts are no
longer valid to use.
Now free the framebuffers earlier.
This caused ASAN warnings, it's not known to cause actual bugs.

Rendering animations from Python scripts via `bpy.ops.render.opengl()`
did not trigger any of the notifications in the Metal back-end to
indicate a frame had been rendered and that the associated resources
could be released. This adds a call to GPU_render_step() after each
render. For the original asset in the bug report this reduces the high
memory watermark from 30gb to 13gb for 500 frames. 13gb is likely
still too high and therefore it is likely there are additional leaks
that need to be addressed so this should only be considered a partial
fix.

Parallel shader compilation introduced `GPU_shader_cache_dir_clear_old`.
The implementation was specific to OpenGL and could not be overwritten
by other backends. This PR improves the implementation so the backend
can have its own implementation.
This is needed for upcoming changes to the Vulkan backend where we
want to use similar mechanisms to speed up shader compilation and caching.

Add a `.data<T>()` method that retrieves a mutable span. This is useful
more and more as we change to filling in vertex buffer data arrays
directly, and compared to raw pointers it's safer too because of asserts
in debug builds.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/123338
This PR adds a context function to consider all
buffer bindings obsolete. This is in order to
track missing binds and invalid lingering states
accross `draw::Pass`es.
The functions `GPU_storagebuf_debug_unbind_all`
and `GPU_uniformbuf_debug_unbind_all` do nothing
more than resetting the internal debug slot bits
to zero. This is what OpenGL backend does as it
doesn't track the bindings themselves.
Other backends might have other way to detect
missing bindings. If not they should be
implemented separately anyway.
I renamed the function to `debug_unbind_all` to
denote that it actually does something related to
debugging.
This also add SSBO binding check for OpenGL as it
was also missing.
#### Future
This error checking logic is pretty much backend
agnostic. While it would be nice to move it at
`gpu::Context` level, we don't have the resources
for that now.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/120716
Now that all relevant code is C++, the indirection from the C struct
`GPUVertBuf` to the C++ `blender::gpu::VertBuf` class just adds
complexity and necessitates a wrapper API, making more cleanups like
use of RAII or other C++ types more difficult.
This commit replaces the C wrapper structs with direct use of the
vertex and index buffer base classes. In C++ we can choose which parts
of a class are private, so we don't risk exposing too many
implementation details here.

Adds an option to set the capture title when using renderdoc
`GPU_debug_capture_begin` has an optional `title` parameter to set
the title of the renderdoc capture.

Ensure attachment states and load/store configs don't get out of sync
with the framebuffer layout.
In theory, a Framebuffer could have empty attachments interleaved with
valid ones so checking just the attachments "length" is not enough.
What this does instead is to ensure that valid attachments have a valid
config and that null attachments either don't have a matching config or
have an IGNORE/DONT_CARE one.

Along with the 4.1 libraries upgrade, we are bumping the clang-format
version from 8-12 to 17. This affects quite a few files.
If not already the case, you may consider pointing your IDE to the
clang-format binary bundled with the Blender precompiled libraries.
This adds basic emulation of the subpass input feature
of vulkan and to a lower extend Raster Order Group on Metal.
This help test paths that might use this feature in the future
(like shadow rendering) on all platform and or simplify higher
level code for supporting older hardware.
This add clear description to the load/store ops and to the
new `GPUAttachementState`.
The OpenGL backend will correctly mask un-writable
attachments and will bind as texture readable attachments.
Even if possible by the vulkan standard, the GPU API prohibit
the read and write to the same attachment inside the same
subpass.
In the GL backend, this is implemented using `glTextureBarrier`
and `texelFetch` as it is described in the ARB_texture_barrier
extension.

Enhance custom framebuffer binding state to allow
specification of clear color as part of the loadstore
state at framebuffer bind time.
This ensures all parameters controlling attachment
loading and storage behaviour can be explicitly
specified when binding a framebuffer.
This change enables optimizations which leverage
explicit framebuffer load store state to also specify
a clear color without prematurely triggering a
clear which may occur independently to
render work when using GPU_framebuffer_clear(..).

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.
With the introduction of metal and vulkan we use a different
GPU backend selection which broke the dialog box for unsupported
platforms.
Blender asserted and segfaulted before the dialog was being shown
to the user.
This patch solves this by introducing a dummy GPU backend in case no
GPU backend was supported by OpenGL, Metal and Vulkan Backend.
It also adds the showMessageBox to GHOST_SystemCocoa.
