This was already the minimum requirement for Intel and Apple Silicon
GPUs. It is required for the Metal backend to work correctly.
Previously the minimum for AMD GPUs was 10.15.

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.
The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
A few weeks ago we enabled the Metal back-end for the viewport.
Due to metal, master is only able to build on MacOS 10.15 and above.
The previous minimum requirement is MacOS 10.13.
It was already planned to bump to a higher version for Blender 3.6. After
a short discussion via bf-committers it was decided that it is fine to bump it for
3.5 release.
This patch cleans up the CMake files and update the minimum requirement.
With this patch the next deprecations will be listsed.
- `NSOpenGLView`, `NSOpenGLContext` is deprecated. (replaced by metal)
- `NSStringPboardType` is replaced by `NSPasteboardTypeString`
- `NSTIFFPboardType` is replaced by `NSPasteboardTypeTIFF`
- `NSFilenamesPboardType` should be replaved by multiple pasteboard items with `NSPasteboardTypeFileURL` instead.
- `NSUserNotification` should be replaced with UserNotifications.frameworks API
Deprecations will be handled in separate tasks and commits. OpenGL won't be
fixed at this moment, as it will be phased out in the future. NSStringPboardType, NSTiffPboardType & NSFilenamesPboardType
will be provided in a single patch. NSUserNotification will also be provided in
its own patch.

Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.
Follow the SPDX license specification: https://spdx.org/licenses
- C/C++/objc/objc++

- CMake, GNUmakefile
While most of the source tree has been included
- `./extern/` was left out.
- `./intern/cycles` & `./intern/atomic` are also excluded because they
use different header conventions.
doc/license/SPDX-license-identifiers.txt has been added to list SPDX all
used identifiers.

This adds an option (WITH_COMPILER_CCACHE) to build using Ccache if it's
found. Makefiles-based, Ninja-based and Xcode generators are supported.
Pass `-DWITH_COMPILER_CCACHE=ON` to cmake to enable Ccache.
Utility option in GNUmakefile is also added: for e.g.,
`make ninja ccache`.

This reverts commit 5eb5978043.
The change was problematic:
*Advanced users may prefer managing schemes manually and adding only
a few that they need, instead of one for every library/executable
Blender builds.
*If CMake creates schema files, it overwrites the changes a developer
made every time CMake is run. If Xcode creates scheme files, it keeps
settings/ environment variables intact.
If someone runs CMake very frequently, pass
`-DCMAKE_XCODE_GENERATE_SCHEME=ON` to `cmake` while configuring.
Every time CMake is re-run, Xcode shows a popup asking if
user wants to manage schemes automatically or manually.
Building Blender wiki page recommends managing schemes automatically.
This change sets the default behavior to "automatically" and generates
the .xcscheme files while CMake is running, instead of hogging Xcode
later on. With tests enabled, the number of schemes is 203.

Enabling all `make deps` dependencies with the exception of Embree and OIDN.
After that, Blender can be compiled on an Apple Silicon Mac just like on any
Intel based Mac. There are still compiler warnings that need to be
investigated and there are probably a couple of bug still to be discovered
and to be fixed.
Most patches to the dependencies are simple and are about disabling SSE and
setting the proper architecture to compiile for. Notable exception is Python,
where I back ported a yet to be accepted PR for upstream Python:

Happens on macOS 10.15.4 and Xcode 11.4.
The reason of failure is caused by following factors:
- xcodebuild reports full semantic macOS SDK version 10.15.4
- The actual SDK file path will only include major and minor part
of the version (10.15, MacOSX10.15.sdk)
- Previous CMake code of ours expected direct match between SDK
version and file path.
The solution is to make our detection code a bit more flexible and
additionally check for major.minor macOS SDK version in the path.
The specific goal of this change is to get rid of separate code paths
for older and newer Xcode versions.
The version 8.2 is picked since it's the latest version which runs on
macOS 10.11 (which is our current deployment target). If that turns
out too new for some reason the alternative would be to require Xcode
version 5.
The main CMakeLists already requires CMake 3.5, so there is no point of
requiring "newer" CMake on macOS.
This was a code from a while back where CMake 3 was not required on all
platforms.
This is in preparation of an the upcoming fix where we need to use a Metal
layer to avoid performance issue when drawing with OpenGL. Note that we already
only officially support 10.12+, the difference with this change is that Blender
will not start at all on 10.9 and 10.10.
This is in preparation of upgrading our library dependencies, some of which
need C++11. We already use C++11 in blender2.8 and for Windows and macOS, so
this just affects Linux.
On many distributions this will not require any changes, on some
install_deps.sh will need to be run again to rebuild libraries.

This removes a bunch of code that is no longer needed, and running
"make update" will now automatically download the new libraries.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D2861
It has been deprecated since at least macOS 10.9 and fully removed in 10.12.
I am unsure if we should remove it only in 2.8. But you cannot build blender with it supported when using a modern xcode version anyway so I would tend towards just removing it also for 2.79 if that ever happens.
