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.

Move `CD_CUSTOMLOOPNORMAL` to the newly added
`CD_PROP_INT16_2D` generic attribute type. This is similar to
previous commits moving specific custom data types.
The attribute name is `custom_normal`. When the attribute with
that name is on the face corner domain, the code will interpret it
as stored in the existing deformation-invariant spherical coordinate
space.
The API remains the same, with the additional opportunity to edit
custom normal data as an attribute directly (which admittedly is fairly
unintuitive currently).
See #130484.

From Rob Blair's PR https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/126309 .
In the code that clamps the bevel amount, the existing code could get
a denominator of 0 (from a tangent of a certain angle).
This code uses a different calculation (diagram in the PR) that clamps
when the projections of four specific edges onto another edge consumes
the whole length of that edge.
This replaces the older dynamic c array macros with blender::Vector in
bmesh_polygon_edgenet. This is the only remaining use of the old array
machinery and removal of `BLI_array.h / .c` can happen immediately
afterwards.

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 code for marking seams or sharp in a bevel was nonsense
for terminal edges (beveled edges that are the only beveled
edge at a vertex). It was written assuming that either the
number of segments is 1 or there is a mesh ADJ pattern, which
is not the case if there is a terminal edge with segments > 1.
The immediate fix for infinite loops is to project against trying
to execute this code for terminal edges.
Also made current code clearer and removed duplication.
It is a future TODO to make it do something sensible for terminal
edges instead of a no-op. Incidentally I notice that it also doesn't
work for mitered booleans, but it won't infinite loop in that case.
To fix both of these cases, we should try to count boundary vertices
to skip rather than edges to skip.
This reverts commit f3c32a36bc and the two followups.
The commit caused issues with both the operator and the modifier.
The operator could be fixed, for the modifier this needs deeper
investigation (see #124836 for a bit more info on this).
Until a better solution is found it is just better to go back to
previous behavior.
Reintroduces #103562 for now

`BM_mesh_triangulate` is used in exporters (when the "Triangulate"
option is ON), the `Triangulate` modifier and currently also in the
`Triangulate` geometry node (even though there are plans to change this,
see !112264)
So in practice, exporters (Alembic/FBX/OBJ/Collada) were breaking
custom normals for game pipelines (unless everything was triangulated
beforehand).
This change builds upon 93c8955a72 (uses the use
`BM_custom_loop_normals_to_vector_layer` /
`BM_custom_loop_normals_from_vector_layer` pair of calls).
In the case of the `Triangulate` modifier, this had its own try at
preserving custom normals in 7d0fcaa69a -- doing very similar
things but as an option -- this is now removed (so it is always done,
which fits into "interpolate custom data if it's there" design that we have
nowadays).
NOTE: the "Triangulate Faces" operator already did the same

Exposed by 6c774feba2
`BM_mesh_decimate_dissolve_ex` sets up `DelimitData` with layer offset
(start), size and end so that `bm_edge_is_contiguous_loop_cd_all` can
check a range of edges for being contiguous.
The way `cd_loop_offset_end` is calculated is wrong though, it does not
take the actual start into account (this has to be added to fix the
bug). When it is wrong, it can happen that start and end are the same,
so no check actually takes place and no delimiting edges are found.
It seems that prior to 6c774feba2 the customdata layer always had an
offset of zero, so never really showed in practice (at least I couldnt
make it break in 3.4), but after 6c774feba2 we can at least observe the
following:
- when creating a bmesh, an offset would to the uv layer would still be
zero in my tests
- however, as soon as we iterate loops of a face (as done in the
report), we get an additional layer `CD_BM_ELEM_PYPTR`
- this then changes the offset
- `BM_uv_map_get_offsets_from_layer` seems to do the right thing afaict
So to resolve, just add the "start" offset to the end, to get the right
range.
NOTE: there is a very similar `DelimitData` used in
`bmesh.ops.join_triangles` and the way in which `bm_edge_delimit_cdata`
sets up te range is exactly like what this PR proposes.

The term `PIL` stands for "platform independent library." It exists since the `Initial Revision`
commit from 2002. Nowadays, we generally just use the `BLI` (blenlib) prefix for such code
and the `PIL` prefix feels more confusing then useful. Therefore, this patch renames the
`PIL` to `BLI`.

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.
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.
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.

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.
Own mistake in d47ceb53f8
The old calls to `BLI_array_staticdeclare` were deceptive. Because no
appends were done after declaration, to actually use the array, the
variables remained null. Effectively `nullptr` was always being passed
in here.

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.
