Fill face offsets in one multithreaded loop with an offset indices
utility function instead of keeping track of the index and setting
the offset for each face.
This was noted in code comments and checked in Python documentation
generation but not at build time.
Since these enums are identifiers that end up included in various places
enforce the `rna_enum_*_items` convention which was noted as
the convention but not followed strictly.
Partially reverts [0], avoids having to deal with multiple prefix types.

This PR adds an initial set of nodes using the new rotation socket.
6 nodes build rotations or convert them to other formats, a 7th rotates
a vector with a rotation, and the last inverts rotations.
The design task #109965 describes the choice to use separate nodes
for the rotation construction and separation operations. In the future,
a "Switch Node" operator (#111438) will help to make working with
these separated nodes faster.

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 patch adds support for the realization of transformations of
operation inputs in the Realtime Compositor. Input socket declarations
can now include a preference to what sort of realization needs to
happen.
All inputs specify realization on the operation domain by default
because that is needed for the correct operation of most operations.
Nodes may choose not to be realized on the operation domain, like the
MapUV, Plane Deform, and Bokeh Blur nodes; that's because their inputs
are treated as transform-less image objects.
Nodes may chose to realize their rotation or scale, like operations that
are not rotation or scale invariant and thus need images of identity
transformations. No nodes are declared as such so far, as this is still
being considered by developers and test builds be published for testing.
This patch coincidentally also fixes#102252 by declaring the Bokeh input
of the Bokeh Blur node to need realization of rotation. Which is the only
functional change of the patch.
Fixes#102252.

This patch implements the Anisotropic Kuwahara filter for the Realtime
compositor and replaces the existing CPU implementation with a new one to be
compatible with the GPU implementation. The implementation is based on three
papers on Anisotropic Kuwahara filtering, presented and detailed in the code.
The new implementation exposes two extra parameters that control the sharpness
and directionality of the output, giving more artistic freedom.
While the implementation is different from the existing CPU implementation, it
is a higher quality one that is also faster and conforms better to the methods
described in the papers.
Examples can be seen in the pull request description.

This commit allows both `rna_enum_` and `rna_node_`to be used for enum prefixes
This also fixes one enum by adding `rna_` to the prefix.
Together these changes fix the API documentation generation.
Include counts of some headers while making full blender build:
- BLI_color.hh 1771 -> 1718
- BLI_math_color.h 1828 -> 1783
- BLI_math_vector.hh 496 -> 405
- BLI_index_mask.hh 1341 -> 1267
- BLI_task.hh 958 -> 903
- BLI_generic_virtual_array.hh 509 -> 435
- IMB_colormanagement.h 437 -> 130
- GPU_texture.h 806 -> 780
- FN_multi_function.hh 331 -> 257
Note: DNA_node_tree_interface_types.h needs color include only
for the currently unused (but soon to be used) socket_color function.
Future step is to figure out how to include
DNA_node_tree_interface_types.h less.

Including <iostream> or similar headers is quite expensive, since it
also pulls in things like <locale> and so on. In many BLI headers,
iostreams are only used to implement some sort of "debug print",
or an operator<< for ostream.
Change some of the commonly used places to instead include <iosfwd>,
which is the standard way of forward-declaring iostreams related
classes, and move the actual debug-print / operator<< implementations
into .cc files.
This is not done for templated classes though (it would be possible
to provide explicit operator<< instantiations somewhere in the
source file, but that would lead to hard-to-figure-out linker error
whenever someone would add a different template type). There, where
possible, I changed from full <iostream> include to only the needed
<ostream> part.
For Span<T>, I just removed print_as_lines since it's not used by
anything. It could be moved into a .cc file using a similar approach
as above if needed.
Doing full blender build changes include counts this way:
- <iostream> 1986 -> 978
- <sstream> 2880 -> 925
It does not affect the total build time much though, mostly because
towards the end of it there's just several CPU cores finishing
compiling OpenVDB related source files.

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.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
Touch the output file when any of the files it depends on are newer
to stop Unix Makefiles from running the generator for every build.
Also remove use of pathlib, gives 10-15% slowdown as it adds indirect
imports such as urllib without much benefit (joining a path).
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.
Pull Request #110944
This updates the signature of `RNA_def_property_update_runtime`
which previously just has a `const void *` input. This made it difficult
to know what function signature is expected and also does not result
in compile errors when a wrong function is provided.
There is one case which required a different signature, so now there
is a separat function for that case.
The goal here is to reduce the number of files that need to be edited when
adding a new node. To register a node, one currently has to add a line to
`node_geometry_register.cc` and `node_geometry_register.hh` (for geometry
nodes). Those files can be generated automatically.
There is a new `NOD_REGISTER_NODE` macro that nodes can use to register
themselves. The macro is then discovered by `discover_nodes.py` that generates
code that calls all the registration functions. The script also works when the
register functions are in arbitrary namespaces. This allows simplifying the node
code as well.
In the past I tried a few times to get auto-registration working without resorting to
code generation, but that never ended up working. The general idea for that would
be to use non-trivial initialization for static variables. The issue always ends up
being that the linker just discards those variables, because they are unused and it
doesn't care if there are side effects in the initialization.

The goal is to be able to define a node in as few files as possible. Currently,
RNA definitions for nodes are put in `rna_nodetree.cc`. However, it seems
surprisingly simple to move them from there to the node files. Of course this
means that `makesrna.cc` won't generate these properties and their accessor
functions anymore. Fortunately, C++ lambdas and the preprocessor make it
fairly straight forward to generate those without the `makesrna` preprocessor.
Using the preprocessor here is not great of course, but I'd argue that it feels
less magical than it was before, so it's an improvement.
This patch changes a few files to test the feasibility of this approach. Eventually,
this approach should be used by all nodes. It can't be used for shader nodes for
now, because cycles still relies on the C++ API generated by RNA.
Right now, only properties are defined the node files. The `StructRNA` is still
generated by `makesrna`. It seems feasible to generate it at runtime as well
though with potentially minor RNA API changes. This is related to #75724.

Both the `Math` node and the `Vector Math` currently only explicitly
support modulo using truncated division which is oftentimes not the
type of modulo desired as it behaves differently for negative numbers
and positive numbers.
Floored Modulo can be created by either using the `Wrap` operation or
a combination of multiple `Math` nodes. However both methods obfuscate
the actual intend of the artist and the math operation that is actually
used.
This patch adds modulo using floored division to the scalar `Math` node,
explicitly stating the intended math operation and renames the already
existing `"Modulo"` operation to `"Truncated Modulo"` to avoid confusion.
Only the ui name is changed, so this should not break compatibility.
