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.

The hash tables and vector blenlib headers were pulling many more
headers than they actually need, including the C base math header,
our C string API header, and the StringRef header. All of this
potentially slows down compilation and polutes autocomplete
with unrelated information.
Also remove the `ListBase` constructor for `Vector`. It wasn't used
much, and making it easy to use `ListBase` isn't worth it for the
same reasons mentioned above.
It turns out a lot of files depended on indirect includes of
`BLI_string.h` and `BLI_listbase.h`, so those are fixed here.

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
Using ClangBuildAnalyzer on the whole Blender build, it was pointing
out that BLI_math.h is the heaviest "header hub" (i.e. non tiny file
that is included a lot).
However, there's very little (actually zero) source files in Blender
that need "all the math" (base, colors, vectors, matrices,
quaternions, intersection, interpolation, statistics, solvers and
time). A common use case is source files needing just vectors, or
just vectors & matrices, or just colors etc. Actually, 181 files
were including the whole math thing without needing it at all.
This change removes BLI_math.h completely, and instead in all the
places that need it, includes BLI_math_vector.h or BLI_math_color.h
and so on.
Change from that:
- BLI_math_color.h was included 1399 times -> now 408 (took 114.0sec
to parse -> now 36.3sec)
- BLI_simd.h 1403 -> 418 (109.7sec -> 34.9sec).
Full rebuild of Blender (Apple M1, Xcode, RelWithDebInfo) is not
affected much (342sec -> 334sec). Most of benefit would be when
someone's changing BLI_simd.h or BLI_math_color.h or similar files,
that now there's 3x fewer files result in a recompile.

Couldn't move two files yet:
* `softbody.c`: The corresponding regression test fails. It seems like the
conversion to C++ changes floating point accuracy, but it's not clear where that happens exactly.
* `writeffmpeg.c`: Is a bit more complex to convert because of the static array in `av_err2str`.

This moves the following `editors/*` directories to C++:
- animation, armature, lattice, mesh, metaball, object, scene.
Much of the changes in this commit (inserting casts in particular)
was automated. Further changes like switching to functional style
casts can be done separately by existing automated scripts.

Store subdivision surface creases in two new named float attributes:
- `crease_vert`
- `crease_edge`
This is similar to 2a56403cb0.
The attributes are naming conventions, so their data type and domain
aren't enforced, and may be interpolated when necessary. Editing tools
and the subdivision surface modifier use the hard-coded name. It might
be best if these were edited as generic attributes in the future, but
in the meantime using generic attributes helps.
The attributes are visible in the list, which is how they're now meant
to be removed. They are now interchangeable with any tool that works
with the generic attribute system-- even tools like vertex paint can
affect creases now.
This is a breaking change. Forward compatibility isn't preserved for
versions before 3.6, and the `crease` property in RNA is removed in
favor of making a smaller API surface area with just the attribute API.
`Mesh.vertex_creases` and `Mesh.edge_creases` now just return the
matching attribute if possible, and are now implemented in Python.
New functions `*ensure` and `*remove` also replace the operators to
add and remove the layers for Python.
A few extrude node test files have to be updated because of different
(now generic) attribute interpolation behavior.

A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:
https://reuse.software/faq/
Store bevel weights in two new named float attributes:
- `bevel_weight_vert`
- `bevel_weight_edge`
These attributes are naming conventions. Blender doesn't enforce
their data type or domain at all, but some editing features and
modifiers use the hard-coded name. Eventually those tools should
become more generic, but this is a simple change to allow more
flexibility in the meantime.
The largest user-visible changes are that the attributes populate the
attribute list, and are propagated by geometry nodes. The method of
removing this data is now the attribute list as well.
This is a breaking change. Forward compatibility is not preserved, and
the vertex and edge `bevel_weight` properties are removed. Python API
users are expected to use the attribute API to get and set the values.

The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
Also minor changes in comments:
- Reference BLENDER_HISTORY_FILE instead of the literal file-name
(simplifies looking up usage).
- Use usernames in tags, as noted in code-style.
There's a compromise of a code parameter called BEVEL_GOOD_ANGLE,
and bugs T44961, T86768, T95335, and this one, are all about problems
with various values of that parameter. If an angle of an adjacent
non-beveled edge is too close to that of the beveled edge, then you
get spikes. The BEVEL_GOOD_ANGLE says that if you are within that
angle difference, then no bevel happens. If the value is too small
then one gets spikes for certain models people build; if the value
is too large, then other people are annoyed that no bevel happens.
Hopefully this compromise in this commit is the final one I will do
before switching to Bevel v2, where none of this should be an issue.
An apostrophe should not be used because it is not a mark of plural,
even for initialisms. This involves mostly comments, but a few UI
messages are affected as well.

Currently the `MLoopUV` struct stores UV coordinates and flags related
to editing UV maps in the UV editor. This patch changes the coordinates
to use the generic 2D vector type, and moves the flags into three
separate boolean attributes. This follows the design in T95965, with
the ultimate intention of simplifying code and improving performance.
Importantly, the change allows exporters and renderers to use UVs
"touched" by geometry nodes, which only creates generic attributes.
It also allows geometry nodes to create "proper" UV maps from scratch,
though only with the Store Named Attribute node for now.
The new design considers any 2D vector attribute on the corner domain
to be a UV map. In the future, they might be distinguished from regular
2D vectors with attribute metadata, which may be helpful because they
are often interpolated differently.
Most of the code changes deal with passing around UV BMesh custom data
offsets and tracking the boolean "sublayers". The boolean layers are
use the following prefixes for attribute names: vert selection: `.vs.`,
edge selection: `.es.`, pinning: `.pn.`. Currently these are short to
avoid using up the maximum length of attribute names. To accommodate
for these 4 extra characters, the name length limit is enlarged to 68
bytes, while the maximum user settable name length is still 64 bytes.
Unfortunately Python/RNA API access to the UV flag data becomes slower.
Accessing the boolean layers directly is be better for performance in
general.
Like the other mesh SoA refactors, backward and forward compatibility
aren't affected, and won't be changed until 4.0. We pay for that by
making mesh reading and writing more expensive with conversions.

If the edge you are going to slide along is very close to in line
with the adjacent beveled edge, then there will be sharp overshoots.
There is an epsilon comparison to just abandon loop slide if this
situation is happening. That epsilon used to be 0.25 radians, but
bug T86768 complained that that value was too high, so it was changed
to .0001 radians (5 millidegrees). Now this current bug shows that
that was too aggressively small, so this change ups it by a factor
of 10, to .001 radians (5 centidegrees). All previous bug reports
remained fixed.
This is the conventional way of dealing with unused arguments in C++,
since it works on all compilers.

This reverts commit 94866ef84f
A number of reports of bevel regressions came after the
commit to fix bevel intersection continuity.
Since the fix for some of those regressions is not obvious
we will revert the continuity improvement and do it as
part of the Bevel V2 project.
