It looks like this specific case never really worked. This wasn't found before,
because in the large majority of cases, execution uses a more optimized code
path instead of this general one.

This patch implements the multi-function procedure operation for the new
CPU compositor, which is a concrete implementation of the PixelOperation
abstraction, much like ShaderOperation, but uses the FN system to more
efficiently evaluate a group of pixel-wise operations.
A few changes were done to FN to support development. The multi-function
builder now allows retrieving the built function. A new builder method
construct_and_set_matching_fn_cb was added to allow using the SI_SO
builders with non static functions. A few other SI_SO were added to. And
a CPP type for float4 was added.
Additionally, the Gamma, Math, Brightness, and Normal nodes were
implemented as an example. The Math node implementation reused the
existing GN math node implementation, so the code was moved to a common
file.

This probably should always have been the value used, really.
Now, instead of reporting `Qualcomm Technologies Inc`, it reports the more informative `Snapdragon(R) X Elite - X1E78100 - Qualcomm(R) Oryon(TM) CPU` on a Thinkpad T14s Gen6 device.

Previously, passing a falsy `std::function` (i.e. it is empty) or a null
function pointer would result in a `FunctionRef` which is thruthy and thus
appeared callable. Now, when the passed in callable is falsy, the resulting
`FunctionRef` will be too.

Use a generic function to access the home directory making macOS path
access match other Unix systems.
When the function was added [0] it solved access to HOME when the
environment variable wasn't set. Since then support for `getpwuid()`
has been added on UNIX systems [1], which also works on macOS,
removing the need for macOS to have a separate function.
Furthermore BLI_expand_tilde had undocumented limitations that didn't
apply to other platforms (see PR for details).

This was located in BKE_appdir which is higher level
(used for accessing Blender's paths), where as the home directory
may be accessed from lower level path code.
This refactors the lifetime analysis of anonymous attributes in geometry nodes.
The refactor has a couple of goals:
* Use a better and simpler abstraction that can be used when building the
lazy-function graph. We currently have a bunch of duplicate code to handle
"field source" and "caller propagation" attributes. This is now unified so
that one only has to worry about one kind of "reference sets".
* Make the abstraction compatible with handling bundles and closures in case we
want to support them in the future. Both types can contain geometries and
fields so they need to be taken into account when determining lifetimes.
* Make more parts independent of the concept of "anonymous attributes". In
theory, there could be more kinds of referenced data whose lifetimes need to
be managed. I don't have any concrete plans for adding any though.
At its core, deterministic anonymous attributes still work the same they have
been since they became deterministic [0]. Even the generated lazy-function graph
is still pretty much or even exactly the same as before.
The patch renames `AnonymousAttributeSet` to the more general
`GeometryNodesReferenceSet` which is more. This also makes more places
independent of the concept of anonymous attributes. Functionally, this still the
same though. It's only used in the internals of geometry nodes nowadays. Most
code just gets an `AttributeFilter` that is based on it.

The paths `C:` (on WIN32) and `/` on other systems was detecting as
relative. This meant `BLI_path_abs_from_cwd` would make both paths
CWD relative. Also remove duplicate call to BLI_path_is_unc.
An unsigned int was used for pointer offset calculation which could wrap
around, for large values or when pointer being checked is from a
different allocation.
Refactoring of the color picker popup. This simplifies code, removes
cruft, and adds new features. The Hex input is removed from its own
tab and placed at the bottom of the layout. The picker circle is made
just a bit smaller. "#" added to the hex values.

Provide building block support for integer operations.
Manipulation of integer based data should not be limited to using float math nodes.
Using float math comes with accuracy issues for larger integers and requires unnecessary
type conversions.
The node also adds some integer specific operations like GCM and LCD.

In addition to float<->half functions to convert one number (#127708), add
float_to_half_array and half_to_float_array functions:
- On x64, this uses SSE2 4-wide implementation to do the conversion
(2x faster half->float, 4x faster float->half compared to scalar),
- There's also an AVX2 codepath that uses CPU hardware F16C instructions
(8-wide), to be used when/if blender codebase will start to be built
for AVX2 (today it is not yet).
- On arm64, this uses NEON VCVT instructions to do the conversion.
Use these functions in Vulkan buffer/texture conversion code. Time taken to
convert float->half texture while viewing EXR file in image space (22M
numbers to convert): 39.7ms -> 10.1ms (would be 6.9ms if building for AVX2)

Previously, it was only possible to bake to disk with geometry nodes. This patch
adds support for storing the baked data directly in the .blend file.
By default, new bakes are stored in the .blend file now. Whether a new bake
should be packed or stored on disk can be configured in two places: in the
properties of the bake node and in the bake panel of the modifier. These
settings don't affect existing bakes, only the next bake.
To unpack or pack an individual bake, there is a new operator button next to the
bake button. The icon and the label below indicate where the bake is currently
stored. The label now also contains the size of the bake.
To unpack or pack all bakes, the `File > External Data > Pack Resources / Unpack
Resources` operators can be used. The unpack operator also has a new title that
mentions the number if individual files separate from the number of bakes. This
works better than just listing a number of files because a bake can consist of
many files.

As part of a more general Objective-C GHOST refactor and in an effort to
modernize the macOS backend for further works, this commit cleans up the
codestyle of Objective-C files. Based off the Blender C/C++ style guide,
in addition to some Objective-C specific style changes.
Changes:
- `const` correctness, use nullptr, initializer list for simple struct
- Reduced variable scope for simple functions, removed unused variables
- Use braces for conditional statements, no else after return
- Annotate inheritted function of GHOST Cocoa classes with override and
use `= default` to define trivial constructors
- Use #import instead of #include for Objective-C headers
This is only for correctness. As the Objective-C #import directive
is really just an #include with an implicit #pragma once.
- Use proper C-style comments instead of #pragma mark
#pragma mark is an XCode feature to mark code chapters, to follow
the Blender codestyle, and make the Objective-C code more editor
agnostic, these were replaced with multi-line C-style comments.

Blender codebase had two ways to convert half (FP16) to float (FP32):
- BLI_math_bits.h half_to_float. Out of 64k possible half values, it converts
4096 of them incorrectly. Mostly denormals and NaNs, which is perhaps not too
relevant. But more importantly, it converts half zero to float 0.000030517578
which does not sound ideal.
- Functions in Vulkan vk_data_conversion.hh. This one converts 2046 possible
half values incorrectly.
Function to convert float (FP32) to half (FP16) was in Vulkan
vk_data_conversion.hh, and it got a bunch of possible inputs wrong. I guess it
did not do proper "round to nearest even" that CPU/GPU hardware does.
This PR:
- Adds BLI_math_half.hh with float_to_half and half_to_float functions.
- Documentation and test coverage.
- When compiling on ARM NEON, use hardware VCVT instructions.
- Removes the incorrect half_to_float from BLI_math_bits.h and replaces single
usage of it in View3D color picking to use the new function.
- Changes Vulkan FP32<->FP16 conversion code to use the new functions, to fix
correctness issues (makes eevee_next_bsdf_vulkan test pass). This makes it
faster too.

Majority of math operations on VecBase<> were implemented by calling into an
indexing operator, sometimes coupled with unroll<Size> template.
When compiler optimizations are off (e.g. Debug build), or when asserts are on
(e.g. usual "developer" setup), this resulted in codegen that is very
sub-optimal. Especially if these vector types are used a lot, e.g. when
scaling down a screenshot for saving as a thumbnail into the blend file.
Address that by explicit code paths for 4,3,2 dimensional vectors, that
avoids both the unroll<> template and indexing operator. To avoid repeated long
typo-prone code, do that with C preprocessor :( -- however all of the
preprocessor innards are in a separate file BLI_math_vector_unroll.hh so they
do not get into the way much.
Scaling down a screenshot to the blend file thumbnail, while saving the blend
file, on my machine: (4K screen resolution, Ryzen 5950X, VS2022 build), which
involves two calls to IMB_scale which uses float4 for pixel operations:
- Release with asserts off (what ships to users): no change at 9.4ms
- Release with asserts on ("developer" setup): 38.1ms -> 9.4ms
- Debug: 226ms -> 64ms
- Debug w/ ASAN: 314ms -> 78ms

To avoid unnecessary looping over listbase items the function
`BLI_listbase_count_at_most` was used however it resulting in an awkward
expression: `BLI_listbase_count_at_most(list, count + 1) == count`
replace this with `BLI_listbase_count_is_equal_to(list, count)`.
Refactor to prepare for slotted action support to the evaluation of
quaternion F-Curves.
Since slotted Actions store F-Curves in an array, you cannot iterate over
them any more via the `ListBase` pointer `fcurve.next`. Quaternion
evaluation code has been refactored to work on a span of F-Curves instead
of just getting the first one.
For now, slotted Actions just evaluate their first slot only. A future
commit will add a slot handle parameter to evaluate the correct slot.
I've done this a few times and would have benefited from a utility
function for it, apparently it's done in a few more places too. The
utilities aren't multithreaded for now, it doesn't seem important
and often multithreading happens at a different level of the call
stack anyway.

This adds a variant of `accumulate_counts_to_offsets` which checks for
overflows. The hot loop stays essentially the same, it just uses a `int64_t`
instead of `int` for the counter now. For now the error state is returned by
using an `std::optional`. Alternatives could be to throw `std::overflow_error`
or to use some Result/Expected type in the future.
Obviously, there are more places that should handle this kind of error. It's
also not obvious how to propagate that error further up yet so that we can
display e.g. a warning in the node. That decision should be applicable to other
nodes too. For now, there is no warning on the node.
