based on concentric disk mapping.
Concentric disk mapping was already present, but not used everywhere.
Now `sample_cos_hemisphere()`, `sample_uniform_hemisphere()`, and
`sample_uniform_cone()` use concentric disk mapping.
This changes the noise in many test images.

This reverts commit 206ab6437b.
Seems that the illegal address error should be covered elsewhere, but it's not directly
clear where. Revert the commit for further investigation.
Discovered during an investigation into #111277
in rare situations (E.G. When normals are NaN), an emitter
won't be selected as part of `light_tree_cluster_select_emitter()`
and as a result of that, an `emitter_index` of `-1` is passed to
`kernel_data_fetch(light_tree_emitters, emitter_index)` resulting in
an "illegal address" error on some devices.

This is in prevision of EEVEE panoramic projection support.
EEVEE-Next is planned to add support for these parameters.
Not having these parameters in Blender DNA will make Cycles
and EEVEE not share the same parameters and will be confusing
for the user.
We handle forward compatibility by still writing the parameters
as ID properties as previous cycles versions expect.
Since this change will break the API compatibility it is crucial
to make it for the 4.0 release.

Fixes NaN in Vector Displacement node caused by the normalization of
0, 0, 0 vectors.
This fixes both visual rendering issues and an "illegal address" error
on the GPU. The "illegal address" error came from the Light Tree
Sampling code not handling the NaN normals well, leading to weird code
paths being taken, eventually leading to a kernel_assert and a
user facing illegal address error.

- GHOST_SystemPathsCocoa::getUserSpecialDir
used `strncpy` without ensuring the string was null terminated.
- GHOST_SystemPathsCocoa::getBinaryDir
used `strcpy` without checking the destination buffer size.
Add optional argument `STRIP_LEADING_C_COMMENTS` to CMake macros:
data_to_c_simple & data_to_c.
Strip leading C-style comments that don't bloat binary size.
Comments are replaced with blank lines so line numbers in error messages
match. Reduces Blender's binary size by ~70kb.
Implements the paper [A Microfacet-based Hair Scattering
Model](https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/cgf.14588) by
Weizhen Huang, Matthias B. Hullin and Johannes Hanika.
### Features:
- This is a far-field model, as opposed to the previous near-field
Principled Hair BSDF model. The hair is expected to be less noisy, but
lower roughness values takes longer to render due to numerical
integration along the hair width. The hair also appears to be flat when
viewed up-close.
- The longitudinal width of the scattering lobe differs along the
azimuth, providing a higher contrast compared to the evenly spread
scattering in the near-field Principled Hair BSDF model. For a more
detailed comparison, please refer to the original paper.
- Supports elliptical cross-sections, adding more realism as human hairs
are usually elliptical. The orientation of the cross-section is aligned
with the curve normal, which can be adjusted using geometry nodes.
Default is minimal twist. During sampling, light rays that hit outside
the hair width will continue propogating as if the material is
transparent.
- There is non-physical modulation factors for the first three
lobes (Reflection, Transmission, Secondary Reflection).
### Missing:
- A good default for cross-section orientation. There was an
attempt (9039f76928) to default the orientation to align with the curve
normal in the mathematical sense, but the stability (when animated) is
unclear and it would be a hassle to generalise to all curve types. After
the model is in main, we could experiment with the geometry nodes team
to see what works the best as a default.

This transform generates code `if ( gamma != vec3(1., 1., 1.) )`
which is not compatible with Metal.
This patch adds an extra OCIO code processing which converts syntax
to a portable version. It only handles this specific case for the
processing performance reasons.
To reproduce the issue add the following look at the end of the
config.ocio:

The `Find*.cmake` modules originally used uppercase commands to match
CMake's own conventions. Since then CMake uses lower-case and even
within our own find modules, using all uppercase wasn't done
consistently. Opt for lowercase everywhere.

This adds a new Ghost function, GHOST_GetPixelAtCursor, that allows
picking colors from outside of Blender windows. This only has an
implementation for the Windows platform, but this should allow other
platforms to also do so if possible.

This PR adds the Lacunarity and Normalize inputs to the Noise node
similar to the Voronoi node.
The Lacunarity input controls the scale factor by which each
successive Perlin noise octave is scaled. Which was previously hard
coded to a factor of 2.
The Noise node normalizes its output to the [0, 1] range by default.
The Normalize option makes it possible for the user to disable that.
To keep the behavior consistent with past versions it is enabled by
default.
To make the aforementioned normalization control easer to implement,
the fractal noise code now accumulates signed noise and remaps the
final sum, as opposed to accumulating positive [0, 1] noise.

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.

With the introduction of metal and vulkan we use a different
GPU backend selection which broke the dialog box for unsupported
platforms.
Blender asserted and segfaulted before the dialog was being shown
to the user.
This patch solves this by introducing a dummy GPU backend in case no
GPU backend was supported by OpenGL, Metal and Vulkan Backend.
It also adds the showMessageBox to GHOST_SystemCocoa.

In the commonly used cycles headers, it's enough to include
much smaller <iosfwd> than the full <iostream>. While looking at it,
removed inclusion of some other headers from commonly used headers,
that seemed to not be needed.

Overall, this commit reworks the component layering in the Principled BSDF
in order to ensure that energy is preserved and conserved.
This includes:
- Implementing support for the OSL `layer()` function
- Implementing albedo estimation for some of the closures for layering purposes
- The specular layer that the Principled BSDF uses has a proper tabulated
albedo lookup, the others are still approximations
- Removing the custom "Principled Diffuse" and replacing it with the classic
lambertian Diffuse, since the layering logic takes care of energy now
- Making the merallic component independent of the IOR
Note that this changes the look of the Principled BSDF noticeably in some
cases, but that's needed, since the cases where it looks different are the
ones that strongly violate energy conservation (mostly grazing reflections
with strong Specular).

Instead of storing the backtrace in all memory blocks, and trying to get
meaningful info out of this list of pointers when printing leaked ones,
just use `__asan_describe_address` when ASAN is enabled.
This also work on Windows, in addition to linux and (presumably) OSX,
but does require to build with ASAN enabled.
The previous code was not working very well anymore, for some reason the
call to `backtrace_symbols` seems to fail to give any meaningful
information nowadays on most of Blender code. And it was only
implemented for linux and OSX.
Based on an idea from @LazyDodo, many thanks!

The fact that the guarded-allocated memory blocks are all linked to the
static `membase` listbase is enough for LSAN to not detect them as
leaks.
So this commit adds a new (private) callback to clear the memlist, which
is only used in the destructor of the `MemLeakDetector` class.
Many thanks to @Sergey for identifying the root issue here.

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.
