Previously, macros were ifdefed using the cmake option `WITH_INTERNATIONAL`
However, the is unnecessary as withen the functions themselves have checks for building without internationalization.
This also means that many `add_definitions(-DWITH_INTERNATIONAL)` are also unnecessary.

to exceed the maximum stack size, causing a crash. Instead
of using `alloca`, use `blender::Array` with an inline buffer.

This adds vertex creasing support for OpenSubDiv for modeling, rendering,
Alembic and USD I/O.
For modeling, vertex creasing follows the edge creasing implementation with an
operator accessible through the Vertex menu in Edit Mode, and some parameter in
the properties panel. The option in the Subsurf and Multires to use edge
creasing also affects vertex creasing.
The vertex crease data is stored as a CustomData layer, unlike edge creases
which for now are stored in `MEdge`, but will in the future also be moved to
a `CustomData` layer. See comments for details on the difference in behavior
for the `CD_CREASE` layer between egdes and vertices.
For Cycles this adds sockets on the Mesh node to hold data about which vertices
are creased (one socket for the indices, one for the weigths).
Viewport rendering of vertex creasing reuses the same color scheme as for edges
and creased vertices are drawn bigger than uncreased vertices.
For Alembic and USD, vertex crease support follows the edge crease
implementation, they are always read, but only exported if a `Subsurf` modifier
is present on the Mesh.

- Add BM_mesh_debug_print & BM_mesh_debug_info.
- Report flags in Mesh.cd_flag in BKE_mesh_debug_print
- Move custom data printing into customdata.cc (noted as a TODO).
Note that the term "runtime" has been removed from
`BKE_mesh_runtime_debug_print` since these are useful for debugging any
kind of mesh data.
Code that handled merging & initializing custom-data from other
meshes sometimes missed checks for this flag, causing bevel weights to
lost when the mesh was converted to a BMesh.
The following changes are a more general fix for T94197.
- Add BM_mesh_copy_init_customdata_from_mesh_array which initializes
custom-data from multiple meshes at once.
As well as initializing custom-data layers from Mesh.cd_flag.
This isn't essential for boolean, however it avoids the overhead of
resizing custom-data layers.
- Loading mesh data into a BMesh now respects Mesh.cd_flag
instead of only checking if the BMesh custom-data-layer exists.
Without this, the order of meshes passed to BM_mesh_bm_from_me could
give different (incorrect) results.
- Copying mesh data now copies `cd_flag` too. This is a precaution
as in my tests evaluating modifiers these values always matched.
Nevertheless it's correct to copy this value as custom-data it's
self is being copied.
As described in T91186, this commit moves mesh vertex normals into a
contiguous array of float vectors in a custom data layer, how face
normals are currently stored.
The main interface is documented in `BKE_mesh.h`. Vertex and face
normals are now calculated on-demand and cached, retrieved with an
"ensure" function. Since the logical state of a mesh is now "has
normals when necessary", they can be retrieved from a `const` mesh.
The goal is to use on-demand calculation for all derived data, but
leave room for eager calculation for performance purposes (modifier
evaluation is threaded, but viewport data generation is not).
**Benefits**
This moves us closer to a SoA approach rather than the current AoS
paradigm. Accessing a contiguous `float3` is much more efficient than
retrieving data from a larger struct. The memory requirements for
accessing only normals or vertex locations are smaller, and at the
cost of more memory usage for just normals, they now don't have to
be converted between float and short, which also simplifies code
In the future, the remaining items can be removed from `MVert`,
leaving only `float3`, which has similar benefits (see T93602).
Removing the combination of derived and original data makes it
conceptually simpler to only calculate normals when necessary.
This is especially important now that we have more opportunities
for temporary meshes in geometry nodes.
**Performance**
In addition to the theoretical future performance improvements by
making `MVert == float3`, I've done some basic performance testing
on this patch directly. The data is fairly rough, but it gives an idea
about where things stand generally.
- Mesh line primitive 4m Verts: 1.16x faster (36 -> 31 ms),
showing that accessing just `MVert` is now more efficient.
- Spring Splash Screen: 1.03-1.06 -> 1.06-1.11 FPS, a very slight
change that at least shows there is no regression.
- Sprite Fright Snail Smoosh: 3.30-3.40 -> 3.42-3.50 FPS, a small
but observable speedup.
- Set Position Node with Scaled Normal: 1.36x faster (53 -> 39 ms),
shows that using normals in geometry nodes is faster.
- Normal Calculation 1.6m Vert Cube: 1.19x faster (25 -> 21 ms),
shows that calculating normals is slightly faster now.
- File Size of 1.6m Vert Cube: 1.03x smaller (214.7 -> 208.4 MB),
Normals are not saved in files, which can help with large meshes.
As for memory usage, it may be slightly more in some cases, but
I didn't observe any difference in the production files I tested.
**Tests**
Some modifiers and cycles test results need to be updated with this
commit, for two reasons:
- The subdivision surface modifier is not responsible for calculating
normals anymore. In master, the modifier creates different normals
than the result of the `Mesh` normal calculation, so this is a bug
fix.
- There are small differences in the results of some modifiers that
use normals because they are not converted to and from `short`
anymore.
**Future improvements**
- Remove `ModifierTypeInfo::dependsOnNormals`. Code in each modifier
already retrieves normals if they are needed anyway.
- Copy normals as part of a better CoW system for attributes.
- Make more areas use lazy instead of eager normal calculation.
- Remove `BKE_mesh_normals_tag_dirty` in more places since that is
now the default state of a new mesh.
- Possibly apply a similar change to derived face corner normals.

This patch implements the vector types (i.e:`float2`) by making heavy
usage of templating. All vector functions are now outside of the vector
classes (inside the `blender::math` namespace) and are not vector size
dependent for the most part.
In the ongoing effort to make shaders less GL centric, we are aiming
to share more code between GLSL and C++ to avoid code duplication.
####Motivations:
- We are aiming to share UBO and SSBO structures between GLSL and C++.
This means we will use many of the existing vector types and others
we currently don't have (uintX, intX). All these variations were
asking for many more code duplication.
- Deduplicate existing code which is duplicated for each vector size.
- We also want to share small functions. Which means that vector
functions should be static and not in the class namespace.
- Reduce friction to use these types in new projects due to their
incompleteness.
- The current state of the `BLI_(float|double|mpq)(2|3|4).hh` is a
bit of a let down. Most clases are incomplete, out of sync with each
others with different codestyles, and some functions that should be
static are not (i.e: `float3::reflect()`).
####Upsides:
- Still support `.x, .y, .z, .w` for readability.
- Compact, readable and easilly extendable.
- All of the vector functions are available for all the vectors types
and can be restricted to certain types. Also template specialization
let us define exception for special class (like mpq).
- With optimization ON, the compiler unroll the loops and performance
is the same.
####Downsides:
- Might impact debugability. Though I would arge that the bugs are
rarelly caused by the vector class itself (since the operations are
quite trivial) but by the type conversions.
- Might impact compile time. I did not saw a significant impact since
the usage is not really widespread.
- Functions needs to be rewritten to support arbitrary vector length.
For instance, one can't call `len_squared_v3v3` in
`math::length_squared()` and call it a day.
- Type cast does not work with the template version of the `math::`
vector functions. Meaning you need to manually cast `float *` and
`(float *)[3]` to `float3` for the function calls.
i.e: `math::distance_squared(float3(nearest.co), positions[i]);`
- Some parts might loose in readability:
`float3::dot(v1.normalized(), v2.normalized())`
becoming
`math::dot(math::normalize(v1), math::normalize(v2))`
But I propose, when appropriate, to use
`using namespace blender::math;` on function local or file scope to
increase readability.
`dot(normalize(v1), normalize(v2))`
####Consideration:
- Include back `.length()` method. It is quite handy and is more C++
oriented.
- I considered the GLM library as a candidate for replacement. It felt
like too much for what we need and would be difficult to extend / modify
to our needs.
- I used Macros to reduce code in operators declaration and potential
copy paste bugs. This could reduce debugability and could be reverted.
- This touches `delaunay_2d.cc` and the intersection code. I would like
to know @howardt opinion on the matter.
- The `noexcept` on the copy constructor of `mpq(2|3)` is being removed.
But according to @JacquesLucke it is not a real problem for now.
I would like to give a huge thanks to @JacquesLucke who helped during this
and pushed me to reduce the duplication further.

Reference struct members by name instead relying on their order.
This also simplifies moving back to named members when all compilers
we use support them.
A previous commit, c56526d8b6, which sometimes didn't drop offsets
into 'in plane' faces, as a fix to T71329, was overly aggressive.
If all the intermediate edges are in the same plane then it is fine
to just put the meeting point on the plane of the start and end edges.
Sometimes the `use_partial_connect` option could trigger the assert:
```
BLI_assert(!BM_elem_flag_test(l_iter->v, VERT_NOT_IN_STACK));
```
This can happen when `v_delimit->e` is not part of edgenet, so `v_other` will not have the flag.
Creating some primitives allows for a scale value (via python) that will
scale the object accordingly. For objects with a radius parameter
(like cylinders, spheres, etc.) passing a scale different to (1,1,1)
would result in unexpected behavior.
For example:
`>>> bpy.ops.mesh.primitive_uv_sphere_add(radius=2, scale=(1,1,2))`
We would expect this to create a sphere with a radius of 2
(dimensions 4,4,4) and then be scaled *2 along the z-axis
(dimensions 4,4,8). But this would previously create a scaled sphere
with dimensions (2,2,4).
The scale was simply divided by two. Maybe because the "radius"
parameter for creating the primitives was confusingly named "diameter"
(but used as the radius).
The fix adds a scale parameter to `ED_object_new_primitive_matrix`
and also renames the wrongly named "diameter" parameters to "radius".

This changes the search for unprocessed faces to only search
from the previously found face. Local testing on 1.5 million
triangle meshes gives a 75x speedup
(of the code affected, which is the first half of the work).
The former code would traverse all faces of a mesh until a face was
found that had not been processed. This ended up being slow mainly
because it had to load face-data to determine the state of the flag.
Secondarily, the way it iterated and marked the mesh, it would end up
traversing all previously processed faces to find and unprocessed one.
The same optimization has been made for edge-group calculation.
