This also replaces the Use Alpha setting. We now have these alpha modes:
* Straight: store RGB and alpha channels separately with alpha acting as a
mask, also known as unassociated alpha.
* Premultiplied: transparent RGB pixels are multiplied by the alpha channel.
The natural format for renders.
* Channel Packed: different images are packed in the RGB and alpha channels,
and they should not influence each other. Channel packing is commonly used
by game engines to save memory.
* None: ignore alpha channel from the file and make image fully opaque.
Cycles OSL does not correctly support Channel Packed and None yet, we are
missing fine control over the OpenImageIO texture cache to do that.
Fixes T53672
This makes it easier to set up materials with emission and transparency.
Importers/exporters and add-ons are recommended to now use these rather than
creating separate transparent BSDF and emission nodes.
Cycles now uses the color space on the image datablock, and uses OpenColorIO
to convert to scene linear as needed. Byte images do not take extra memory,
they are compressed in scene linear + sRGB transfer function which in common
cases is a no-op.
Eevee and workbench were changed to work similar. Float images are stored as
scene linear. Byte images are compressed as scene linear + sRGB and stored in
a GL_SRGB8_ALPHA8 texture. From the GLSL shader side this means they are read
as scene linear, simplifying the code and taking advantage of hardware support.
Further, OpenGL image textures are now all stored with premultiplied alpha.
Eevee texture sampling looks a little different now because interpolation
happens premultiplied and in scene linear space.
Overlays and grease pencil work in sRGB space so those now have an extra
conversion to sRGB after reading from image textures. This is not particularly
elegant but as long as engines use different conventions, one or the other
needs to do conversion.
This change breaks compatibility for cases where multiple image texture nodes
were using the same image with different color space node settings. However it
gives more predictable behavior for baking and texture painting if save, load
and image editing operations have a single color space to handle.

On file read we need to update group nodes in case the group they refer to
has changed its inputs and outputs. This had O(n^2) time complexity and was
updating all datablocks even if they did not change.
No functional change, this adds LIB definition and args to cmake files.
Without this it's difficult to migrate away from 'BLENDER_SORTED_LIBS'
since there are many platforms/configurations that could break when
changing linking order.
Manually add and enable WITHOUT_SORTED_LIBS to try building
without sorted libs (currently fails since all variables are empty).
This check will eventually be removed.
See T46725.
We were already getting the designated output node in
'ntreeGPUMaterialNodes()' but this wasnt used in 'ntreeExecGPUNodes()',
instead whatever node was tagged NODE_DO_OUTPUT was executed.
note: this is just the bare minimum to fix the bug, other improvements
previously done in D4482 might follow as a separate commit.

The wrong transformation was used. Add a new matrix specially for this case.
This also fix the Node texture coordinate that was suffering the same issue.
This was already supported for Cycles shader nodes, but now also works for
Eevee and compositing nodes. Instead of a generic NodeCustomGroup, now
there is ShaderNodeCustomGroup and CompositorNodeCustomGroup that can be
subclassed and registered.

User counting now happens before init() and after free() methods, so that
the ID users are in a valid state when Python might modify them. ID user
counting was moved into node.c and simplified.
Patch by Miguel with further refactoring by Brecht. Ref D4370.
This is a hacky fix. We just convert the int as a float and use it as such.
This works ok for small int but will not be correct for numbers greater
than 4194303.
Correct support would require deeper change for UBO creation and socket
conversion.
Convention was not to but after discussion on 918941483f we agree its
best to change the convention.
Names now mostly follow RNA.
Some exceptions:
- Use 'nodetrees' instead of 'nodegroups'
since the struct is called NodeTree.
- Use 'gpencils' instead of 'grease_pencil'
since 'gpencil' is a common abbreviation in the C code.
Other exceptions:
- Leave 'wm' as it's a list of one.
- Leave 'ipo' as is for versioning.
