Part of overall "improve image filtering situation" (#116980), this PR addresses
two issues:
- Bilinear (default) image filtering makes half a source pixel wide transparent
border around the image. This is very noticeable when scaling images/movies up
in VSE. However, when there is no scaling up but you have slightly rotated
image, this creates a "somewhat nice" anti-aliasing around the edge.
- The other filtering kinds (e.g. cubic) do not have this behavior. So they do
not create unexpected transparency when scaling up (yay), however for slightly
rotated images the edge is "jagged" (oh no).

This can potentially lead to a small speedup when the inline buffer
is very large (we don't use that anywhere), but more importantly
also quiets a wrong gcc `-Warray-bounds` warning.
Part of overall "improve filtering situation" (#116980) task:
Add "Cubic Mitchell" filtering option to VSE strips. This is a cubic (4x4)
filter that generally looks better than bilinear, while not blurring the image
as much as the Cubic BSpline filter that exists elsewhere within Blender. It is
also default in many other apps.
Rename the (very recently added) VSE Bicubic filter option to Cubic BSpline.

There exist a bunch of "give me a (filtered) image pixel at this location"
functions, some with duplicated functionality, some with almost the same but
not quite, some that look similar but behave slightly differently, etc.
Some of them were in BLI, some were in ImBuf.
This commit tries to improve the situation by:
* Adding low level interpolation functions to `BLI_math_interp.hh`
- With documentation on their behavior,
- And with more unit tests.
* At `ImBuf` level, there are only convenience inline wrappers to the above BLI
functions (split off into a separate header `IMB_interp.hh`). However, since
these wrappers are inline, some things get a tiny bit faster as a side
effect. E.g. VSE image strip, scaling to 4K resolution (Windows/Ryzen5950X):
- Nearest filter: 2.33 -> 1.94ms
- Bilinear filter: 5.83 -> 5.69ms
- Subsampled3x3 filter: 28.6 -> 22.4ms
Details on the functions:
- All of them have `_byte` and `_fl` suffixes.
- They exist in 4-channel byte (uchar4) and float (float4), as well as
explicitly passed amount of channels for other float images.
- New functions in BLI `blender::math` namespace:
- `interpolate_nearest`
- `interpolate_bilinear`
- `interpolate_bilinear_wrap`. Note that unlike previous "wrap" function,
this one no longer requires the caller to do their own wrapping.
- `interpolate_cubic_bspline`. Previous similar function was called just
"bicubic" which could mean many different things.
- Same functions exist in `IMB_interp.hh`, they are just convenience that takes
ImBuf and uses data pointer, width, height from that.
Other bits:
- Renamed `mod_f_positive` to `floored_fmod` (better matches `safe_floored_modf`
and `floored_modulo` that exist elsewhere), made it branchless and added more
unit tests.
- `interpolate_bilinear_wrap_fl` no longer clamps result to 0..1 range. Instead,
moved the clamp to be outside of the call in `paint_image_proj.cc` and
`paint_utils.cc`. Though the need for clamping in there is also questionable.

`UUID` generally stands for "universally unique identifier". The session identifier that
we use is neither universally unique, nor does it follow the standard. Therefor, the term
"session uuid" is confusing and should be replaced.
In #116888 we briefly talked about a better name and ended up with "session uid".
The reason for "uid" instead of "id" is that the latter is a very overloaded term in Blender
already.
This patch changes all uses of "uuid" to "uid" where it's used in the context of a
"session uid". It's not always trivial to see whether a specific mention of "uuid" refers
to an actual uuid or something else. Therefore, I might have missed some renames.
I can't think of an automated way to differentiate the case.
BMesh also uses the term "uuid" sometimes in a the wrong context (e.g. `UUIDFaceStepItem`)
but there it also does not mean "session uid", so it's *not* changed by this patch.

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`.

Part of overall "improve filtering situation" (#116980) task:
* Add Bicubic filtering option to strip Transform "Filter" setting.
Previously this option only existed in Transform Effect "Interpolation"
setting.
- With this addition, it feels like the transform effect could
possibly be marked as legacy/deprecated, since the regular Transform
that is on all strips can do everything that Transform Effect did?
* Speed up bicubic filtering (used now in VSE, but also in CPU Compositor,
image paint, etc.) by slightly simplifying the code and using some SIMD.
Upscaling 96x54 image to 3840x2160 resolution, using Bicubic filtering:
- Windows (VS2022, Ryzen 5950X): 35.5ms -> 15.1ms
- Mac (clang 15, M1 Max): 29.6ms -> 24.4ms
* Add gtest coverage for bicubic functionality.

- Move functions to C++ namespace
- Use two functions with simpler responsibilities instead
- Use C++ math functions
- Remove arguments structs left over from before C++ transition
- Return ray distance precalculation by value
Adds a header that defines the same constants as the C++ 20
<numbers> header.
Benefits:
- Decouple our C++ and C math APIs
- Avoid using macros everywhere, nicer syntax
- Less header parsing during compilation
- Can be replaced by `std::numbers` with C++ 20
Downsides:
- There are fewer numbers defined in the C++ standard header
- Maybe we should just wait until we can use C++ 20

Converting a near-identity matrix to a euler could be off by over
4.5 degrees when the result of the hypotenuse calculated from the
matrix was small (around 2e-6).
Resolve by increasing the epsilon ~20x to 3.75e-05 which results
in ~1/20th the error.
This was tested against many generated near-identity matrices
(which tend to cause arithmetic error) to ensure this change doesn't
cause worse results in other cases (see report for details).
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.

The delay is caused by `Shortcut->Resolve(0, SLR_NO_UI | SLR_UPDATE)`
to locate potentially moved or renamed paths.
The issue was resolved by adding the `SLR_NOSEARCH` flag.
This eliminates the delay without sacrificing functionality.

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.
There are some tragic design flaws with the Microsoft STL
implementation of `std::dequeue`. Unless we implement our
own similar data structure or use an implementation from
another library, the change isn't worth it.
