When using clangd or running clang-tidy on headers there are
currently many errors. These are noisy in IDEs, make auto fixes
impossible, and break features like code completion, refactoring
and navigation.
This makes source/blender headers work by themselves, which is
generally the goal anyway. But #includes and forward declarations
were often incomplete.
* Add #includes and forward declarations
* Add IWYU pragma: export in a few places
* Remove some unused #includes (but there are many more)
* Tweak ShaderCreateInfo macros to work better with clangd
Some types of headers still have errors, these could be fixed or
worked around with more investigation. Mostly preprocessor
template headers like NOD_static_types.h.
Note that that disabling WITH_UNITY_BUILD is required for clangd to
work properly, otherwise compile_commands.json does not contain
the information for the relevant source files.

Rotating an edge deletes the edge and creates a new edge
however these edges were being iterated over and had their indices
checked.
In practice this wasn't causing use-after-free errors because the
edges are part of a BLI_mempool, nevertheless using freed elements of a
memory-pool should be avoided.
- Replace blender::Map with an array to lookup heap-nodes by edge index.
- Only create the array when the topology influence is used.
These gives ~5-9% overall speedup to operator function.
In C++, in most cases empty braces (aka value initilization) are
the best way to initialize to 0/null (or the default values if
specified in the class/struct declaration).
Replace 3x arguments and a return value with a structure
that stores the neighboring edges & loops.
Also call add_without_duplicates from a loop instead of inlining.
A new parameter, topology influence, is added that causes the
join_triangles operator to prioritize edge joins that create quads with
sensible geometry relative to existing quads, instead of selecting the
'flattest' and 'squarest' next pair and then leaving leftover triangles
with no partners to merge with.
This produces its best results with the face and shape thresholds set to
180 degrees (no hard limits as a restriction against merging) and
topology influence somewhere between 100-130%, depending on the mesh.
Too low and many parallelograms and triangles are left, too high and the
algorithm tries too hard and starts making errors.
Note that both quads already present in the selection, as well as the
quads that are generated during the operator, will influence the
topology around them. This allows the modeler to manually merge a few
quads in key areas of the mesh, as a hint to the algorithm, indicating
what result they way they want to see, and the algorithm will then take
those quads into account and try to build around them according to the
modeler's guidance.
A new checkbox to leave only the remaining triangles selected has also
been added. This helps users visualize what remains to be fixed.
Ref !128610
As of 2a56403cb0, bevel weight data is stored as a generic
attribute. The bevel modifier is currently hard-coded to use the
`bevel_weight_edge` attribute as the data source for the weights.
This commit adds a string textbox where the user can specify alternate
attributes for the bevel's edge weights.
The string name field is added as a search button which provides a list
of all attributes in the original mesh. This is meant to work similarly
to geometry nodes, so mismatched attribute data types and domains are
automatically converted/interpolated as necessary. Attributes created
by previous modifiers can also be used, but they won't appear in the
search menu.

The attribute API defined in `attribute.cc` was dependent on
the assumption that `ID`s are always the "direct" owners of attributes.
For Grease Pencil drawings, this is not the case. The Grease Pencil ID
stores the attributes for layers, and the attributes for drawings are stored
in `CurvesGeometry` on the drawings themselves.
In order to make use of `rna_attribute.cc`, we need that API to handle
other types of attribute owners.
This adds an `AttributeOwner` which is basically just a type and a
pointer. We replace the `ID` pointers and pass `AttributeOwner`s instead.
For cases where we have to do a switch based on the type, all the
types are handled and the `default` statment is left out. This ensures
that we get a compiler warning when a new `AttributeOwnerType`
is added.
No functional changes expected.

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.
Except for vertex groups and a few older color types, these
are generally replaced by newer generic attribute types.
Also remove some includes of DNA_mesh_types.h, since it's
included indirectly by BKE_mesh.hh currently.
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`.
The version of BM_elem_attrs_copy that took a map used a reference
the version without a map didn't, which is fairly confusing.
Pass by pointer now unless this is part of a wider refactor
to move to references everywhere.
Continuation of fix for #115776. Removes attribute copy functions
that calculate the map inline, this is error prone as it's easy to
call these functions from a loop which may result in poor performance.
"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.
NDEBUG is part of the C standard and disables asserts. Only this will
now be used to decide if asserts are enabled.
DEBUG was a Blender specific define, that has now been removed.
_DEBUG is a Visual Studio define for builds in Debug configuration.
Blender defines this for all platforms. This is still used in a few
places in the draw code, and in external libraries Bullet and Mantaflow.

After previous commits, there is a new function to copy a BMesh
custom data block that doesn't go through the "find common layers
between two formats" code. This is *much* faster when there is a
large amount of layers with the same type, since that code is
quadratic currently. It may not be noticeable in many simpler
setups though.
Related to #115776
For now it has the same implementation as the function that allows
passing separate source and destination custom data formats. But
copying to the same format can potentially be much simpler.
Cleanup talked about in the previous semi-related PR, #114501
- saacos, saasin, sasqrt have been 100% identical to saacosf,
saasinf, sasqrtf since 2012.
- For all the above, there exist more intuitively named safe_acosf,
safe_asinf, safe_sqrtf that do the same thing, so switch all code to those.

Design task: #93551
This PR replaces the auto smooth option with a geometry nodes modifier
that sets the sharp edge attribute. This solves a fair number of long-
standing problems related to auto smooth, simplifies the process of
normal computation, and allows Blender to automatically choose between
face, vertex, and face corner normals based on the sharp edge and face
attributes.
Versioning adds a geometry node group to objects with meshes that had
auto-smooth enabled. The modifier can be applied, which also improves
performance.
Auto smooth is now unnecessary to get a combination of sharp and smooth
edges. In general workflows are changed a bit. Separate procedural and
destructive workflows are available. Custom normals can be used
immediately without turning on the removed auto smooth option.
**Procedural**
The node group asset "Smooth by Angle" is the main way to set sharp
normals based on the edge angle. It can be accessed directly in the add
modifier menu. Of course the modifier can be reordered, muted, or
applied like any other, or changed internally like any geometry nodes
modifier.
**Destructive**
Often the sharp edges don't need to be dynamic. This can give better
performance since edge angles don't need to be recalculated. In edit
mode the two operators "Select Sharp Edges" and "Mark Sharp" can be
used. In other modes, the "Shade Smooth by Angle" controls the edge
sharpness directly.
### Breaking API Changes
- `use_auto_smooth` is removed. Face corner normals are now used
automatically if there are mixed smooth vs. not smooth tags. Meshes
now always use custom normals if they exist.
- In Cycles, the lack of the separate auto smooth state makes normals look
triangulated when all faces are shaded smooth.
- `auto_smooth_angle` is removed. Replaced by a modifier (or operator)
controlling the sharp edge attribute. This means the mesh itself
(without an object) doesn't know anything about automatically smoothing
by angle anymore.
- `create_normals_split`, `calc_normals_split`, and `free_normals_split`
are removed, and are replaced by the simpler `Mesh.corner_normals`
collection property. Since it gives access to the normals cache, it
is automatically updated when relevant data changes.
Addons are updated here: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender-addons/pulls/104609
### Tests
- `geo_node_curves_test_deform_curves_on_surface` has slightly different
results because face corner normals are used instead of interpolated
vertex normals.
- `bf_wavefront_obj_tests` has different export results for one file
which mixed sharp and smooth faces without turning on auto smooth.
- `cycles_mesh_cpu` has one object which is completely flat shaded.
Previously every edge was split before rendering, now it looks triangulated.

This replaces the older dynamic c arrays with blender::Vector as
appropriate. Many files required minimal changes and the before/after
are quite similar.
There's 3 remaining usages of the old machinery but those will require
more involved changes and design.
