The Endpoint Selection node allows for the Selection of an aribitrary
number of endpoints from each spline in a curve. The start and end
inputs are evaluated on the spline domain. The result is outputted
as a boolean field on the point domain.

Previously, some multi-functions were allocated in a resource scope.
This was fine as long as the multi-functions were only needed during
the current evaluation of the node tree. However, now cases arise
that require the multi-functions to be alive after the modifier is finished.
For example, we want to evaluate fields created with geometry nodes
outside of geometry nodes.
To make this work, `std::shared_ptr` has to be used in a few more places.
Realistically, this shouldn't have a noticable impact on performance.
If this does become a bottleneck in the future, we can think about ways
to make this work without using `shared_ptr` for multi-functions that
are only used once.
Since points aren't relevant in function nodes, replace all mentions
of it with "local" to illustrate rotations done in local-space instead.

Replaces the old Subdivision Surface Node.
Changes:
- Removes implicit instance realization, instead the node runs once
per unique instance.
- "Use Creases" becomes a crease field input applied to edges.
The values are clamped between zero and one.

The object info node output an instance as a performance optimization.
Before that optimization was (almost) invisible to the user, but now
that we aren't automatically realizing instances, it isn't intuitive
for a single object to become an instance.
I refactored the transform node so its ability to translate/transform
an entire geometry set was more usable from elsewhere and exposed the
function to get a geometry set from an object.

This commit adds an updated version of the old attribute transfer node.
It works like a function node, so it works in the context of a
geometry, with a simple data output.
The "Nearest" mode finds the nearest element of the specified domain on
the target geometry and copies the value directly from the target input.
The "Nearest Face Interpolated" finds the nearest point on anywhere on
the surface of the target mesh and linearly interpolates the value on
the target from the face's corners.
The node also has a new "Index" mode, which can pick data from specific
indices on the target geometry. The implicit default is to do a simple
copy from the target geometry, but any indices could be used. It is also
possible to use a single value for the index to to retrieve a single
value from an attribute at a certain index.

While there may be arguments for different positions of the selection
inputs, it's important to be consistent, and putting them right after
the corresponding geometry works well when there are multiple
geometry inputs. Addresses T91646.
This commit adds a fields version of the mesh to curve node, with a
field for the input selection. In order to reduce code duplication,
it adds the mesh to curve conversion to the new geometry module
and calls that implementation from both places.

The sockets are not exposed in any nodes yet.
They work similar to the Object/Collection/Texture sockets,
which also just reference a data block.

Add a boolean field to the Set Position Node. This value allows
for each point to either have its position set to the input position
value or have the input value added to the current position.

This changes the edge split node to have a selection input, which is
more aligned with the other design changes. This loses the ability to
split edges based on an angle, but the edge angle can be added as a
field input node in the future, which will make for a much more
flexible system.

Previously the attribute capture node only worked on realized geometry,
which was very confusing when other nodes worked on each individual
instance. The realize instances node is the way to explicitly change
between the two behaviors. Addresses T92155.

Adds a node that can rotate each of a geometry's instances in global
(to the modifier object) or local space (of each point) by a specified
angle around a pivot point.
In the future, separating the local-global choice for the pivot and the
rotation might be useful. However, for now the node is kept simple.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D12682
Adds a node that can scale a geometry's instances. With "Local" turned
on, the instance is scaled individually from the center point input,
while when local space is turned off, it's more like the transform
node, except it scales outward from the center point instead of only
from the origin.

Adds a node that can translate instances in the transform space of
the modifier object, or the local space of their original transform.
One reason to have a special node for instances is that they always
have the existing transform, unlike mesh or point cloud points.

Check when the node fails to create BVH trees, and fill the result
with zero in that case, which is most likely the expected value when
the node encounters an error. Warnings will be added with a separate
patch.
There was only a check for the component but not for if it was empty.
Because the curve fill node produces an empty curve component, a
nullptr was read, causing a crash. Generally nodes shouldn't produce
empty components, but currently we cannot rely on that fact.

There is not enough time before the release to improve Random Walk to handle
all cases this was used for, so restore it for now.
Since there is no more path splitting in cycles-x, this can increase noise in
non-flat areas for the sample number of samples, though fewer rays will be traced
also. This is fundamentally a trade-off we made in the new design and why Random
Walk is a better fit. However the importance resampling we do now does help to
reduce noise.

This commit implements T91780, adding nodes to get and set builtin
attributes. Individual set nodes are used so that the values can be
exposed for direct editing, which is useful for attributes like shade
smooth and spline resolution. Individual input nodes are used to allow
reusing nodes for multiple components, and to allow grouping multiple
outputs conceptually in the same node in the future.
Input Nodes
- Radius
- Curve Tilt
- Curve Handle Positions
- Is Shade Smooth
- Spline Resolution
- Is Spline Cyclic
'Set' Nodes
- Curve Radius
- Point Radius
- Curve Tilt
- Curve Handle Positions
- Is Shade Smooth

Delete Geometry:
This adds a copy of the old node in the legacy folder and updates the
node to work with fields. The invert option is removed, because it is
something that should be very easy with fields, and to be consistent
with other nodes which have a selection. There is also a dropdown to
select the domain, because the domain can't be determined from the
field input. When the domain does not belong on any of the components
an info message is displayed.
Separate Geometry:
A more general version of the old Point Separate node. The "inverted"
output is the same as using the delete geometry node.

This commit introduces the Align Euler to Vector function node which
rotates to a body into a given direction. The node replaces the legacy
"Align Rotation to Vector" node, which only worked on an attribute
named `rotation` internally. The "Euler" in the name is meant to make
it clearer that the rotation isn't interchangeable with a regular
vector.
