Fixes an issue with the new node insertion feature where, after a link drag search,
the main input of the new node is connected to, regardless of which one was chosen.

This makes link-drag-search more convenient when one wants to insert a new node
between existing nodes. The change currently also affects normal node-insertion
when dragging it. The exact behavior still has to be figured out.

Use snake style naming for all the kernel nodes functions.
Omit kernel prefix in the names since of the using namespace.
Use full forms of the terms

This commit moves generated `RNA_blender.h`, `RNA_prototype.h` and
`RNA_blender_cpp.h` headers to become C++ header files.
It also removes the now useless `RNA_EXTERN_C` defines, and just
directly use the `extern` keyword. We do not need anymore `extern "C"`
declarations here.

The swapping code incorrectly expected the link to have a start and end.
However, this was not necessarily the case when attempting to create
a link from a node to itself. This case has special handling in
`node_link_find_socket`.
The hidden socket in the Viewer is not shown when a new link to it is created.
This is because the hidden property of the socket is not updated when a new
link to it is created.
Fixing it by simply manually update the property after a new link is created.

Since ebb61ef30f reroute nodes couldn't be inserted on links anymore,
when their socket's type is currently incompatible.
Because the sockets of reroute nodes change types dynamically
according to the sockets they are linked to, it should always be
allowed to insert reroutes onto links.

This improves working with viewer nodes in geometry and compositor nodes.
Previously, the viewer node would typically stay at the position where it was first
inserted which leads to very long links in many cases. Now the viewer node
automatically moves to the place where the user ctrl+shift+clicked to view data.
The viewer is placed slightly to the right and top of the current node. It is moved
up a bit, so that it does not get in the way as quickly when the user wants to add
another new node. Furthermore, the viewer node position is chosen so that it
does not intersect with other nodes.
In the future we could implement animating the node position so that it slowly
transitions to it's new places.

Previously, when dropping a node on a link with incompatible sockets, the link
would be removed. While sometimes useful in super simple setup, it is generally
useless for most work. Even worse, users might not notice that they accidentally
removed a link (this has been reported in the recent geometry nodes workshop).
This patch changes this behavior in two ways:
* A node can't be inserted onto an incompatible link anymore.
* A link will be dimmed while dragging a node over it, if it is incompatible or if
alt is pressed.

For historical reasons, the `multi_input_socket_index` was actually reversed
(large index comes first). This patch renames it to `multi_input_sort_id` and
adds a comment. This new name makes it less confusing that the id is reversed.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/119652
Implements the design from #116067.
The socket type is called "Matrix" but it is often referred to as "Transform"
when that's what it is semantically. The attribute type is "4x4 Matrix" since
that's a lower level choice. Currently matrix sockets are always passed
around internally as `float4x4`, but that can be optimized in the future
when smaller types would give the same behavior.
A new "Matrix" utilities category has the following set of initial nodes"
- **Combine Transform**
- **Separate Transform**
- **Multiply Matrices**
- **Transform Direction**
- **Transform Vector**
- **Invert Matrix**
- **Transpose Matrix**
The nodes and socket type are behind an experimental flag for now,
which will give us time to make sure it's the right set of initial nodes.
The viewer node overlay doesn't support matrices-- they aren't supported
for rendering in general. They also aren't supported in the modifier interface
currently. But they are supported in the spreadsheet, where the value is
displayed in a tooltip.

This patch adds support for _Menu Switch_ nodes and enum definitions in
node trees more generally. The design is based on the outcome of the
[2022 Nodes Workshop](https://code.blender.org/2022/11/geometry-nodes-workshop-2022/#menu-switch).
The _Menu Switch_ node is an advanced version of the _Switch_ node which
has a customizable **menu input socket** instead of a simple boolean.
The _items_ of this menu are owned by the node itself. Each item has a
name and description and unique identifier that is used internally. A
menu _socket_ represents a concrete value out of the list of items.
To enable selection of an enum value for unconnected sockets the menu is
presented as a dropdown list like built-in enums. When the socket is
connected a shared pointer to the enum definition is propagated along
links and stored in socket default values. This allows node groups to
expose a menu from an internal menu switch as a parameter. The enum
definition is a runtime copy of the enum items in DNA that allows
sharing.
A menu socket can have multiple connections, which can lead to
ambiguity. If two or more different menu source nodes are connected to a
socket it gets marked as _undefined_. Any connection to an undefined
menu socket is invalid as a hint to users that there is a problem. A
warning/error is also shown on nodes with undefined menu sockets.
At runtime the value of a menu socket is the simple integer identifier.
This can also be a field in geometry nodes. The identifier is unique
within each enum definition, and it is persistent even when items are
added, removed, or changed. Changing the name of an item does not affect
the internal identifier, so users can rename enum items without breaking
existing input values. This also persists if, for example, a linked node
group is temporarily unavailable.

The goal here is to make it easier to make node links. Previously, it was quite
easy to accidentally start box selection or to trigger the link-drag-search when
that was not intended.
Now, the tolerances are a bit easier to work with. Also, instead of trying to use
the first socket that is close enough, it will find the closest socket instead. It feels
much better in my testing already, but obviously the values can be tuned more
with some testing.
Also we have to make sure to not accidentally make other things like resizing
nodes harder.

Currently nodes are reordered so that the "on top" nodes are last in
the list. Node order changing for simple operations like selection
means we either have to reevaluate the node tree data-block on
selections or accept that the evaluated order can be different from the
original. Currently we do the latter (see d76a0e98ba), but
makes it complex to access nodes by index, and is hard to reason about.
Instead of reordering nodes, store the ui order in the node itself
and sort the nodes before drawing them or doing any processing
that depends on the "depth."
The "selected_nodes" list in the context is no longer ordered by the
recent selection.

In #112326 the socket visibility functions were updated to take the
open/closed state of panels into account for visibility of the socket
icon. However, in "hidden" (collapsed) nodes the panels should be
ignored entirely, drawing all sockets on the root level. This requires
looking at the node flags to determine socket icon visibility, so a
simple method of `bNodeSocket` is not sufficient.
This patch moves the more complex visibility queries for sockets into
`bNode`, where both node and socket flags can be accessed. These should
be used for actual visibility rather than the plain flag accessors on
`bNodeSocket`.
Renamed `is_visible_or_panel_closed` back to just `is_visible`, the
other `is_visible` variant is now integrated in `bNode::is_socket_drawn`.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/112520
#112019 included open/closed state of the parent panel in socket
visibility calculation. This prevents dragging links, but also disables
other features that should still work, such as drawing links.
A narrower condition is needed for icon visibility vs. general socket
visibility. The cases which use the new `is_icon_visible` condition:
- Drawing socket selection outlines (same as unselected sockets)
- Drawing multi-input sockets (same as unselected sockets)
- `node_find_indicated_socket`, used by a wide range of mouse click
operators, including the link-drag operator that was cause for
#112019.
Cases using the original `is_visible` (true even if parent panel is
collapsed):
- `nodeLinkIsHidden` draws links only when at least one socket is
visible.
- `node_update_basis`, sockets still added to layout even if icon isn't
rendered.
- `node_update_hidden`, panels are ignored for "hidden" nodes, all
sockets are rendered.
- `NODE_OT_link_make` operator for finding "best" sockets to connect.
- `node_link_viewer` finding sockets to connect to a viewer node.
- `get_main_socket` used for insert-on-links (find sockets to splice
into) and some shader previews
- `node_gather_link_searches`, suggestions for adding a new node at the
end of a link.

Part 3/3 of #109135, #110272
Switch to new node group interfaces and deprecate old DNA and API.
This completes support for panels in node drawing and in node group
interface declarations in particular.
The new node group interface DNA and RNA code has been added in parts
1 and 2 (#110885, #110952) but has not be enabled yet. This commit
completes the integration by
* enabling the new RNA API
* using the new API in UI
* read/write new interfaces from blend files
* add versioning for backward compatibility
* add forward-compatible writing code to reconstruct old interfaces
All places accessing node group interface declarations should now be
using the new API. A runtime cache has been added that allows simple
linear access to socket inputs and outputs even when a panel hierarchy
is used.
Old DNA has been deprecated and should only be accessed for versioning
(inputs/outputs renamed to inputs_legacy/outputs_legacy to catch
errors). Versioning code ensures both backward and forward
compatibility of existing files.
The API for old interfaces is removed. The new API is very similar but
is defined on the `ntree.interface` instead of the `ntree` directly.
Breaking change notifications and detailed instructions for migrating
will be added.
A python test has been added for the node group API functions. This
includes new functionality such as creating panels and moving items
between different levels.
This patch does not yet contain panel representations in the modifier
UI. This has been tested in a separate branch and will be added with a
later PR (#108565).

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.
AOV/group/material output nodes can now be previewed the same way the

Using ClangBuildAnalyzer on the whole Blender build, it was pointing
out that BLI_math.h is the heaviest "header hub" (i.e. non tiny file
that is included a lot).
However, there's very little (actually zero) source files in Blender
that need "all the math" (base, colors, vectors, matrices,
quaternions, intersection, interpolation, statistics, solvers and
time). A common use case is source files needing just vectors, or
just vectors & matrices, or just colors etc. Actually, 181 files
were including the whole math thing without needing it at all.
This change removes BLI_math.h completely, and instead in all the
places that need it, includes BLI_math_vector.h or BLI_math_color.h
and so on.
Change from that:
- BLI_math_color.h was included 1399 times -> now 408 (took 114.0sec
to parse -> now 36.3sec)
- BLI_simd.h 1403 -> 418 (109.7sec -> 34.9sec).
Full rebuild of Blender (Apple M1, Xcode, RelWithDebInfo) is not
affected much (342sec -> 334sec). Most of benefit would be when
someone's changing BLI_simd.h or BLI_math_color.h or similar files,
that now there's 3x fewer files result in a recompile.
