Consistently use edge draw flag instead of original index to determine if an
edge should be drawn or not.
In GPU subdivision the edge original index was used for both edge optimal
display and selection mapping to coarse edges, but they are not the same.
Now match the CPU subdivision logic and use a separate edge draw flag VBO.
For cage display, match Blender 3.3 behavior more in showing/hiding of edges
in wireframe mode. That is edges without a mapping to an original edge are
always hidden when there is no distinct cage, and drawn otherwise. This is
not ideal for e.g. the bevel modifier where it will always show some edges on
corners despite all edges being hidden by the user. But we currently have
no good information to decide if these should be hidden or not, so err on
the side of showing too much as it did before.

Related Task #70267
Pull Request #104599
This pull request adds a new tipe of resource handles (thin handles).
These are intended for cases where a resource buffer with more than one
entry for each object is needed (for example, one entry per material
slot).
While it's already possible to have multiple regular handles for the
same object, they have a non-trivial overhead in terms of uploaded
data (matrix, bounds, object info) and computation (visibility
culling).
Thin handles store an indirection buffer pointing to their "parent"
regular handle, therefore multiple thin handles can share the same
per-object data and visibility culling computation.
Thin handles can only be used in their own Pass type (PassMainThin),
so passes that don't need them don't have to pay the overhead.
This pull request also includes the update of the Workbench Next
pre-pass to use PassMainThin, which is the main reason for the
implementation of this feature.
The main change from the previous PR is that the thin handles are now
stored directly in the main resource_id_buf, to avoid wasting an extra
bind slot.

Discard is not always treated as an explicit return and flow control can continue for required derivative calculations. This behaviour is different in Metal vs OpenGL. Adding return after discards ensures consistency in expectation as behaviour is well-defined.

Rewrite of the Workbench engine using C++ and the new Draw Manager API.
The new engine can be enabled in Blender `Preferences > Experimental > Workbench Next`.
After that, the engine can be selected in `Properties > Scene > Render Engine`.
When `Workbench Next` is the active engine, it also handles the `Solid` viewport mode rendering.
The rewrite aims to be functionally equivalent to the current Workbench engine, but it also includes some small fixes/tweaks:
- `In Front` rendered objects now work correctly with DoF and Shadows.
- The `Sampling > Viewport` setting is actually used when the viewport is in `Render Mode`.
- In `Texture` mode, textured materials also use the material properties. (Previously, only non textured materials would)
To do:
- Sculpt PBVH.
- Volume rendering.
- Hair rendering.
- Use the "no_geom" shader versions for shadow rendering.
- Decide the final API for custom visibility culling (Needed for shadows).
- Profile/optimize.
Known Issues:
- Matcaps are not loaded until they’re shown elsewhere. (e.g. when opening the `Viewort Shading` UI)
- Outlines are drawn between different materials of the same object. (Each material submesh has its own object handle)

In the new Draw Manager, when the same DrawGroup has both front and back facing instances, the front facing instances don't offset their indices accordingly.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D17069
This allows an engine to perform GPU side view specification and let the
draw manager extract the culling informations (bounds).
To this end, the matrices ubo gets exposed to be able to write to it.
`compute_procedural_bounds()` need to be explicitely called before any
main pass using the culling result.
This implement most of the functions provided by the BLI math library.
This is part of the effort to unify GLSL and C++ syntax. Ref T103026.
This also adds some infrastructure to make it possible to run GLSL shader unit
test.
Some code already present in other libs is being copied to the new libs.
This patch does not make use of the new libs outside of the tests.
Note that the test is still crashing when using metal.
This was due to a missing endpoint case that wasn't handled in the port.
The last point still have to be discarded manually because of the
dot/stroke setting of the material.
The first test `ma1.x == -1` is not necessary anymore since the index
buffer do not contain this point (which was rendered using instance
rendering before.

This implements the base needed for supporting multiple view concurently
inside the same drawcall.
The view used by common macros and view related functions is indexed using
a global variable `drw_view_id` which can be set arbitrarly or read
from the `drw_ResourceID`.
This is needed for EEVEE-Next shadow but can be used for other purpose
in the future.
Note that a shader specialization is needed for it to work. `DRW_VIEW_LEN`
needs to be defined to the amount of view the shader will access.
The number of views contained in a `draw::View` is set at construction
time.
Note that the maximum number of object correctly drawn by the shaders
using multiple views will be lower than thoses who don't.
This change the attribute binding scheme to something similar to the
curves objects. Attributes are now buffer textures sampled per points.
The actual geometry is now rendered using an index buffer that avoid too
many vertex shader invocation.
Drawcall is wrapped in a DRW function to reduce complexity of future
changes.
The attribute node already allows accessing attributes associated
with objects and meshes, which allows changing the behavior of the
same material between different objects or instances. The same idea
can be extended to an even more global level of layers and scenes.
Currently view layers provide an option to replace all materials
with a different one. However, since the same material will be applied
to all objects in the layer, varying the behavior between layers while
preserving distinct materials requires duplicating objects.
Providing access to properties of layers and scenes via the attribute
node enables making materials with built-in switches or settings that
can be controlled globally at the view layer level. This is probably
most useful for complex NPR shading and compositing. Like with objects,
the node can also access built-in scene properties, like render resolution
or FOV of the active camera. Lookup is also attempted in World, similar
to how the Object mode checks the Mesh datablock.
In Cycles this mode is implemented by replacing the attribute node with
the attribute value during sync, allowing constant folding to take the
values into account. This means however that materials that use this
feature have to be re-synced upon any changes to scene, world or camera.
The Eevee version uses a new uniform buffer containing a sorted array
mapping name hashes to values, with binary search lookup. The array
is limited to 512 entries, which is effectively limitless even
considering it is shared by all materials in the scene; it is also
just 16KB of memory so no point trying to optimize further.
The buffer has to be rebuilt when new attributes are detected in a
material, so the draw engine keeps a table of recently seen attribute
names to minimize the chance of extra rebuilds mid-draw.

The CameraTexCoFactors being only valid for a single view, and being only

For the Metal shader translation support for shader-global uniforms are remapped via macro's, and in such cases where a uniform name matches a vertex attribute name, compilation errors will occur due to this injected syntax being incompatible with the immediate code.
Also adding source-level function interface alternatives where sized arrays are passed in. These are not supported directly in Metal shading language and are instead handled as pointers. These pointers require explicit address-space qualifiers in some cases, if device/constant address space memory is passed into the function.

This replaces the direct shader uniform layout declaration by a linear
search through a global buffer.
Each instance has an attribute offset inside the global buffer and an
attribute count.
This removes any padding and tighly pack all uniform attributes inside
a single buffer.
This would also remove the limit of 8 attribute but it is kept because of
compatibility with the old system that is still used by the old draw
manager.
This is a new implementation of the draw manager using modern
rendering practices and GPU driven culling.
This only ports features that are not considered deprecated or to be
removed.
The old DRW API is kept working along side this new one, and does not
interfeer with it. However this needed some more hacking inside the
draw_view_lib.glsl. At least the create info are well separated.
The reviewer might start by looking at `draw_pass_test.cc` to see the
API in usage.
Important files are `draw_pass.hh`, `draw_command.hh`,
`draw_command_shared.hh`.
In a nutshell (for a developper used to old DRW API):
- `DRWShadingGroups` are replaced by `Pass<T>::Sub`.
- Contrary to DRWShadingGroups, all commands recorded inside a pass or
sub-pass (even binds / push_constant / uniforms) will be executed in order.
- All memory is managed per object (except for Sub-Pass which are managed
by their parent pass) and not from draw manager pools. So passes "can"
potentially be recorded once and submitted multiple time (but this is
not really encouraged for now). The only implicit link is between resource
lifetime and `ResourceHandles`
- Sub passes can be any level deep.
- IMPORTANT: All state propagate from sub pass to subpass. There is no
state stack concept anymore. Ensure the correct render state is set before
drawing anything using `Pass::state_set()`.
- The drawcalls now needs a `ResourceHandle` instead of an `Object *`.
This is to remove any implicit dependency between `Pass` and `Manager`.
This was a huge problem in old implementation since the manager did not
know what to pull from the object. Now it is explicitly requested by the
engine.
- The pases need to be submitted to a `draw::Manager` instance which can
be retrieved using `DRW_manager_get()` (for now).
Internally:
- All object data are stored in contiguous storage buffers. Removing a lot
of complexity in the pass submission.
- Draw calls are sorted and visibility tested on GPU. Making more modern
culling and better instancing usage possible in the future.
- Unit Tests have been added for regression testing and avoid most API
breakage.
- `draw::View` now contains culling data for all objects in the scene
allowing caching for multiple views.
- Bounding box and sphere final setup is moved to GPU.
- Some global resources locations have been hardcoded to reduce complexity.
What is missing:
- ~~Workaround for lack of gl_BaseInstanceARB.~~ Done
- ~~Object Uniform Attributes.~~ Done (Not in this patch)
- Workaround for hardware supporting a maximum of 8 SSBO.
