Loading pre-4.0.20 node groups with sockets using subtypes causes
broken socket identifiers. This is because the node tree interface now
expects sockets to use the base identifiers ("NodeSocketFloat" instead
of "NodeSocketFloatFactor" etc.).
To correct this the conversion code now replaces socket idnames that
include a subtype suffix with their base names. This fix is also applied
to files between versions 4.0.20 and 4.1.10, where the socket types
may have been converted incorrectly.

This is due to `BLI_findstring` returning wrong id from passed name.
Two IDs can have same name before making them unique so it can return
wrong id. To fix this, pass id argument instead of id_name to
`BLI_libblock_ensure_unique_name` and skip the use of `BLI_findstring`

The previous commit introduced a new `RPT_()` macro to translate
strings which are not tooltips or regular interface elements, but
longer reports or statuses.
This commit uses the new macro to translate many strings all over the
UI.
Most of it is a simple replace from `TIP_()` or `IFACE_()` to
`RPT_()`, but there are some additional changes:
- A few translations inside `BKE_report()` are removed altogether
because they are already handled by the translation system.
- Messages inside `UI_but_disable()` are no longer translated
manually, but they are handled by a new regex in the translation
system.

Translation of the UI is currently split into 3 preferences:
interface, tooltips, and new data. The distinction between interface
and tooltips is currently unclear as tooltips also include a lot of
messages not displayed in the actual tooltips on mouse hover.
These include reports to the Info Editor, information in editor
headers and footers, and statuses in panels.
In order to limit the use of `TIP_()` to actual tooltips, this commit
introduces a new preference for this extra information: "Reports".
New translation macros are introduced: `RPT_()` and `CTX_RPT_()`, as
well as their equivalent for the Python API, `pgettext_rpt_()`, to be
imported as `rpt_()`.

Starting with Blender 4.0, Blender refuses to load a userpref.blend file
that had been generated on a macoOS machine, exiting immediately with an
unsupported GPU error. This is because when the userdef was written on
the macOS machine (assuming a recent version), it has gpu_backend set to
GPU_BACKEND_METAL (which is rejected). The same is true in reverse.
Prior to commit cdb8a8929c there was a runtime fallback such
that the setting for Metal backend would be ignored on non-Metal
platforms.
This adds a check in blo_do_versions_userdef() for if gpu_backend is set
to an unsupported backend; if so, it is set to a default supported value
for the current platform (Metal on macOS, OpenGL otherwise). This
replaces the current versioning check, as this isn't strictly related to
versioning. The new logic handles the narrower versioning case (a macOS
user upgrading to 4.0+ with a userprefs selecting OpenGL) as well.
This should be future-proof for other GPU backends, as it only overrides
in the case of an unsupported value. The logic could be generalized in
the future, perhaps.

- Improve the look of them, so they feel less like from year
1998 (more details and images in the PR).
- Some of the scopes got slightly faster in the process, others
stayed the same performance (details below).
- Remove VSE Scopes related data from SpaceSeq DNA, move it into
runtime instead.
The ability to adjust the "Backwire Opacity" was mistakenly removed in
version 2.93 (b365cc017a).
As this issue went unnoticed by most users, it appears reasonable to
completely remove this setting from the code.
By making this change, there is no longer a need to define a default
value for `View3DOverlay::backwire_opacity`.

Bone collection visibility now respects their hierarchy.
A bone collection is only visible when it is marked as visible and all
its ancestors (so parents, greatparents, etc.) are visible. Root bone
collections have no ancestors by definition, and only consider their own
visibility.
The effective ancestors' visibility is stored on each bone collection,
in its `BONE_COLLECTION_ANCESTORS_VISIBLE` flag. This makes it possible
to determine the effective visibility from just the flags of the bone
collection itself.
The `BONE_COLLECTION_ANCESTORS_VISIBLE` flag is now stored, with the
other flags, in `BoneCollection::flags`. This means that it's stored in
DNA, even though it's derived data and should actually be stored in a
runtime struct. However, `BoneCollection` doesn't have any runtime
struct yet, and I don't feel that the introduction of this flag is a
good enough reason to introduce that just yet.

Bundling many tests in a single binary reduces build time and disk space
usage, but is less convenient for running individual tests command line
as filter flags need to be used.
This adds WITH_TESTS_SINGLE_BINARY to generate one executable file per
source file. Note that enabling this option requires a significant amount
of disk space.
Due to refactoring, the resulting ctest names are a bit different than
before. The number of tests is also a bit different depending if this
option is used, as one uses gtests discovery and the other is organized
purely by filename, which isn't always 1:1.

Along with the 4.1 libraries upgrade, we are bumping the clang-format
version from 8-12 to 17. This affects quite a few files.
If not already the case, you may consider pointing your IDE to the
clang-format binary bundled with the Blender precompiled libraries.
Some common headers were including this. Separating the includes
will ideally lead to better conceptual separation between CustomData
and the attribute API too. Mostly the change is adding the file to
places where it was included indirectly before. But some code is
shuffled around to hopefully better places as well.
Remove most includes of this header inside other headers, to remove unnecessary
indirect includes which can have a impact on compile times. In the future we may
want more dedicated "_fwd.hh" headers, but until then, this sticks with the
solution in existing code.
Unfortunately it isn't yet possible to remove the include from `BKE_geometry_set.hh`.
Each value is now out of the global namespace, so they can be shorter
and easier to read. Most of this commit just adds the necessary casting
and namespace specification. `enum class` can be forward declared since
it has a specified size. We will make use of that in the next commit.
Use the standard "elements_num" naming, and use the "corner" name rather
than the old "loop" name: `verts_num`, `edges_num`, and `corners_num`.
This matches the existing `faces_num` field which was already renamed.

Before #108014, toggling "Auto Smooth" was an easy way to disable
evaluation of custom normals and face corner normals for faster
viewport playback performance. Now that corner normals are calculated
automatically as necessary, it's helpful to still have a way to disable
expensive normal computation for faster playback.
This commit adds a "Normals" scene simplify setting. To avoid a bunch
of complexity, it just influences which normals are requested from the
object by viewport rendering. In my tests, skipping calculating at
least doubled viewport FPS in a few test files with a large mesh with
custom normals. This works well because normals are cached and lazily
calculated.

Caused by 133dde41bb, it is expected behavior now for linked ID in
general, see also #105786 and #106321.
However, Scenes are a special case here, since they are almost never
(and should not be) indirectly linked by other data, and have (almost)
never any real user, unless they are active in one of the open main
windows.
So this commit essentially reverts the new behavior implemented
in #106321, for linked scenes only.
Should be backported to a potential bugfix release of 4.0.
Usually we expect new DNA values do be zeroed when we add them. But the
conversion to the interface format for 4.0 didn't clear the memory, so
behavior was different when updating old files. Fix that by using
`calloc` instead of `malloc`.
This de-duplicate some passes in the raytracing
pipeline and make it more ready for adoption
of arbitrary closure evaluation. This last part
means the removal of some per closure type
options.
The put in common the tile classification step
that is now done only once for all 3 closure
type. Also add some speedup to the tile
compaction phase that is now only twice
faster.
The horizon-scan setup was also de-duplicated
and run only if needed, which can save up to
0.5ms is complex scenes.
However, this moves the max-roughness and and
resolution scaling to a common parameter.
This is to be able to support arbitrary closure
evaluation where multiple closure with conflicting
parameters could be evaluated in one tracing pass.

"mesh" reads much better than "me" since "me" is a different word.
There's no reason to avoid using two more characters here. Replacing
all of these at once is better than encountering it repeatedly and
doing the same change bit by bit.
Due to changes in the build environment shader_builder wasn't able to
compile on macOs. This patch reverts several recent changes to CMake files.
* dbb2844ed9
* 94817f64b9
* 1b6cd937ff
The idea is that in the near future shader_builder will run on the buildbot as
part of any regular build to ensure that changes to the CMake doesn't break
shader_builder and we only detect it after a few days.

This is a smaller rewrite/refactor of the VSE copy paste code to use the file copy buffer logic that is used in other places of Blender.
This makes Blender able to copy paste between Blender processes.
It can also paste successfully after closing and reopening Blender.
Other than that, the functionally should remain the exact same as the current copy paste operator with one exception: Scene strips does not retain their scene pointer when pasting into the same file.
This is to make it consistent with how it was before when copy pasting between .blend files.
(The scene data for the scene strips were never copied in when doing that)
Logic for pulling in or linking scenes into new or current files are purposely left for later when a proper proposal of how this would work in a nice fashion is done.
Now the strip data gets copied either fully or partially besides for scene strips. There only the script data gets copied and not the scene data.
If there is a audio/video data block of the same name as in the paste data, it will be reused to reduce potential duplication of data.

Move the contents of `ANIM_bone_collections.h` into its C++
`ANIM_bone_collections.hh` sibling. Blender is C++ by now that we can do
without the C header.
No functional changes.
