Add TBB::flow graph scheduling to BLI_task.
Using flow graphs, a graph of nodes (tasks) and links can be defined.
Work can flow though the graph. During this process the execution of the nodes will be
scheduled among the available threads.
We are planning to use this to improve the threading in the draw manager.
The implemented API is still limited it only supports sequential flows. Joins and buffers
are not supported. We could eventually support them as part of an CPP API. These features
from uses compile time templates and are hard to make a clean C-API for this.

The long-term goal is to move code out of `abc_util.{h,cc}` into either
files with better, more concrete names, or simply into the one file
where they are used.
No functional changes.
Unfortunately there is no `EXPECT_NOT_LT`; as the `HierarchyContext` only
has an `operator<()` function, testing for `(A < B) == false` is different
than simply testing `(A >= B)`.
No functional changes.
This introduces unittests for FCurve evaluation.

This patch enables TBB as the default task scheduler. TBB stands for Threading Building Blocks and is developed by Intel. The library contains several threading patters. This patch maps blenders BLI_task_* function to their counterpart. After this patch we can add more patterns. A promising one is TBB:graph that can be used for depsgraph, draw manager and compositor.
Performance changes depends on the actual hardware. It was tested on different hardwares from laptops to workstations and we didn't detected any downgrade of the performance.

* Rename template parameter N to InlineBufferCapacity
* Expose InlineBufferCapacity parameter for Set and Map
* Add some comments
* Fixed an error that I introduced recently
This is not currently used and will take some work to support with TBB, so
remove it until we have a new implementation based on TBB.
Fixes T76005, parallel range pool tests failing.

Instead of building on top of `BLI::Vector`, just use a raw array
and handle the growing in `BLI::VectorSet`.
After this change, the existing `EdgeSet` can be reimplemented using
`BLI::VectorSet` without performance regressions.
This was used to investigate T73840. Since the armature math is far from
simple, I thought it would be a good idea to start writing some unit
tests for it.
No functional changes in Blender itself.
In preparation of TBB we need to split the finalize function into reduce
and free. Reduce is used to combine results and free for freeing any
allocated memory.
The reduce function is called to join user data chunk into another, to reduce the
result to the original userdata_chunk memory. These functions should have no side
effects so that they can be run on any thread.
The free functions should free data created during execution (TaskParallelRangeFunc).

The test failure in T75491 only showed up in debug builds because
`BLI_assert()` is a no-op in release builds. This is now replaced by a
proper GTests call to `ADD_FAILURE()`, ensuring that the test fails
regardless of build mode.
Test specs are read from strings, and there was a comma instead
of a decimal point, and then an extra decimal point in the Quad0 test.
This test has been flaky on Windows buildbot. Perhaps this is why.
This moves the `alembic`, `avi`, `collada`, and `usd` modules into a common
`io` directory.
This also cleans up some `#include "../../{somedir}/{somefile}.h"` by
adding `../../io/{somedir}` to `CMakeLists.txt` and then just using
`#include "{somefile}.h"`.
No functional changes.
Introduce new IDTypeInfo structure.
Each ID type will have its own, with some minimal basic common info,
and ID management callbacks.
This patch only does it for Object type, for demo/testing purpose.
Moving all existing IDs is a goal of next "cleanup Friday".
Note that BKE_idcode features should then be merged back into BKE_idtype -
but this will have to be done later, once all ID types have been properly
converted to the new system.
Another later TODO might be to try and add callbacks for file read/write,
and lib_query ID usages looper.
This is part of T73719.
