Fix the failing rendering of volumes on Windows with HIP SDK 6.1
by reducing the optimization level.
There should be no functional or performance difference for the average
user as the Blender foundation currently does not use HIP SDK 6.1
on Windows. This change is primarily to fix issues for community members
building Blender locally.

Previously, in case of a failure during BVH transfer, when running out
of memory for example, we could get an error such as "BVH failed to
migrate to the GPU due to Embree library error (no error)", because
embree error status was actually reset before being queried.
This commit fixes its propagation.

Multiple threads can access the same device queue from different
threads. This could happen when doing a cycles preview render, baking
eevee volume probes or generating material previews.
This PR adds a mutex around access to the device queues.

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.

Dropping files could crash ~10% of the time on some systems,
although I wasn't able to reproduce the error.
The ownership of GWL_Seat::data_offer_dnd wasn't handled correctly,
where the value could be handled by both wl_data_device_listener::leave
& drop callbacks.
Resolve by ensuring the data-offer is handled by the drop callback.
getpwuid for accessing home wasn't used when looking up the path
for older Blender versions. There is no reason for the code-paths
to differ. Use a shared utility function to access home.
This was already done in GHOST, but not BKE_appdir_folder_home.
Also null check the return value from getpwuid() as it's not
guaranteed to be non-null.
Fixes a issue where the Principled BSDF would render incorrectly if
`__SUBSURFACE__` is off. Which is common when using adaptive kernel
compilation (a unsupported Cycles feature).

Turns out it is possible to have code to pick up wrong class
when defining a friend:
```
intern\cycles\device/memory.h(255): warning C4099: 'GPUDevice': type name first seen using 'struct' now seen using 'class'
source\blender\gpu\GPU_platform.hh(69): note: see declaration of 'GPUDevice'
```
Now made it so the classes have forward declaration in the CCL
namespace, avoiding possible conflict with the classes with the
same name in the global namespace.

This adds feature parity with Cycles regarding light and shadow liking.
Technically, this extends the GBuffer header to 32 bits, and uses
the top bits to store the object's light set membership index.
The same index is also added to `ObjectInfo` in place of padding bytes.
For shadow linking, the shadow blocker sets bitmask is stored per
tilemap. It is then used during the GPU culling phase to cull objects
that do not belong to the shadow's sets.

Previously, Cycles only supported the Henyey-Greenstein phase function for volume scattering.
While HG is flexible and works for a wide range of effects, sometimes a more physically accurate
phase function may be needed for realism.
Therefore, this adds three new phase functions to the code:
Rayleigh: For particles with a size below the wavelength of light, mostly athmospheric scattering.
Fournier-Forand: For realistic underwater scattering.
Draine: Fairly specific on its own (mostly for interstellar dust), but useful for the next entry.
Mie: Approximates Mie scattering in water droplets using a mix of Draine and HG phase functions.
These phase functions can be combined using Mix nodes as usual.

This PR introduces support for the extension `VK_KHR_fragment_shader_barycentric`,
and includes a few miscellaneous improvements related to it.
1. Add support for `VK_KHR_fragment_shader_barycentric`, if the physical device
supports it. Otherwise, gpu_BaryCoord is generated through an injected geom
shader, like it was previously.
2. Simplify the logic of checking has_geometry_stage in vert shader.
3. Fix a potential issue of location mismatch in an injected geom shader.

This enables most of the GPU compiler's optimizations while -ffast-math
isn't set at DPC++ level.
It brings an overall 1% speedup and currently doesn't change the unit
tests pass rate.
This enables three additional math optimizations:
-ffp-contract=fast (enables FMA generation)
-freciprocal-math (enables x/y -> x*(1/y))
-fassociative-math (enables e.g. a*b + c*b -> (a+c)*b)
These are used on Windows and HIP anyways, so our code can't expect exact IEEE
semantics in any case.
The only difference between the new set and -ffast-math is that we don't use
-ffinite-math-only since this causes issues with the BVH (see ce1f2e271d) and
breaks e.g. isnan.
This causes a ~1.5% speedup in my very quick test, but might be higher for some
more math-intensive cases.

The only difference between Windows+Clang and the others is a prefix, so use
some CMake logic to just prepend that to all flags instead of duplicating them.

Since the introduction of vulkan loader in vulkan (not Blender) the
molten vk extension always leads to a failed registration. This
extension is only available when using the loader. Blender doesn't use
the vulkan loader so we should remove it.

Remove the indirection previously used for the topology refiner
to separate C and C++ code. Instead retrieve the base level in
calling code and call opensubdiv API functions directly. This
avoids copying arrays of mesh indices and should reduce
function call overhead since index retrieval can now be inlined.
It also lets us remove a lot of boilerplate shim code.
The downside is increased need for WITH_OPENSUBDIV defines
in various parts of blenkernel, but I think that is required to avoid
the previous indirection and have the kernel deal with OpenSubdiv
more directly.

Happens for renders from command line, when kernel specialization
thread is still working after the allocators on the Blender side
have been deinitialized.
Add an explicit deinitializaiton, which ensures all Cycles worker
and cache threads are finished before the allocators are deinitialized.
This should solve occasional crashes when running regression tests
for Metal or Metal-RT.

This improve the API in multiple aspects:
* No need for an additional `lookup` call to get the current attribute. This
would internally iterate over all attributes again. This leads to O(n^2)
behavior. Note that there are still other reasons for O(n^2) behavior when
processing attributes (where n is the number of attributes).
* Remove the need to return a value from the iteration code to indicate that the
iteration should continue. This is now the default behavior. The iteration can
still be stopped by calling `iter.stop()`.
* Easier access to `is_builtin` property.
* Iterator callback only has a single parameter instead of two (of which one is
sometimes unused).

The issue was that cycles did not take ownership of the entire `VolumeGridData`.
The `VolumeTreeAccessToken` that was used already only makes sure that the
grid is not unloaded when it was read from disk for example. It does not extend
the lifetime of the `VolumeGridData` as a whole.
Previous fix (b17734598d) tried to fix this, but it seems that
depending on CPU and video width, ffmpeg might need at least 64
byte alignment, even if CPU we're running on is only AVX2 (32 byte
alignment). That is because some other parts of ffmpeg code
statically pick 64 or 32 byte alignment internally, depending on whether
AVX512 support is even compiled in (even if CPU might not have it).
I have checked whether this does not negatively affect a platform where
SIMD alignment is always 16 (Mac), and it does not, everything works as
expected.

This change switches Cycles to an opensource HIP-RT library which
implements hardware ray-tracing. This library is now used on
both Windows and Linux. While there should be no noticeable changes
on Windows, on Linux this adds support for hardware ray-tracing on
AMD GPUs.
The majority of the change is typical platform code to add new
library to the dependency builder, and a change in the way how
ahead-of-time (AoT) kernels are compiled. There are changes in
Cycles itself, but they are rather straightforward: some APIs
changed in the opensource version of the library.
There are a couple of extra files which are needed for this to
work: hiprt02003_6.1_amd.hipfb and oro_compiled_kernels.hipfb.
There are some assumptions in the HIP-RT library about how they
are available. Currently they follow the same rule as AoT
kernels for oneAPI:
- On Windows they are next to blender.exe
- On Linux they are in the lib/ folder

Allows users to override the auto detection for GPU
selection. Normally the GPU selection is done by looping
over the order Vulkan provides and finding the highest
performing device based on its type (discrete, integrated,
software).
However users might have multiple discrete cards and want
to switch between them. Or developers want to validate other
GPUs without rebooting.
This PR adds the ability to override the auto detection
for the vulkan backend.
**Future improvements**:
- This PR does not include a command line option. This can be added
later for render farms.

Integrate an existing implementation of the SLIM unwrapping algorithm
into Blender. More info about SLIM here:
https://igl.ethz.ch/projects/slim/
This commit is based on the integration code written by Aurel Gruber
for Blender 2.7x (unfinished and never merged with the main branch).
This commit is based on Aurel's code, rebased and further improved.
Details:
- Unwrap has been moved into a sub-menu,
slim unwrapping is exposed as: "Minimum Stretch".
- Live unwrap with SLIM refines the solutions using a timer.
- When using SLIM there are options to:
- Set the number of iterations.
- Weight the influence using vertex weights.
- SLIM can be disabled using the `WITH_UV_SLIM` build option.
