Required by Metal backend for efficient shader compilation. EEVEE material
resource binding permutations now controlled via CreateInfo and selected
based on material options. Other existing CreateInfo's also modified to
ensure explicitness for depth-writing mode. Other missing bindings also
addressed to ensure full compliance with the Metal backend.

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.
Overwriting UV map or vertex color data in Geometry nodes will move the
layers to another CustomData channel, and as such, will make attribute
lookup fail from the UVMap and Vertex Color nodes in EEVEE as the
CustomDataType will also be modified (i.e. no longer `CD_MTFACE` or
`CD_MCOL`).
As discussed in T93179, the solution is to use `CD_PROP_AUTO_FROM_NAME`
so that the render engine is able to find the attributes. This also makes
EEVEE emulate Cycles behaviour in this regard. `attr_load_uv` and
`attr_load_color` are also removed in favor of the generic attribute
API in the various GLSL shaders.
Although `CD_PROP_AUTO_FROM_NAME` is now used even for UV maps, the
active UV map is still used in case the attribute name is empty, to
preserve the old behavior.

This is to make the codegen and shading nodes object type agnostic. This
is essential for flexibility of the engine to use the nodetree as it see
fits.
The essential volume attributes struct properties are moved to the
`GPUMaterialAttribute` which see its final input name set on creation.
The binding process is centralized into `draw_volume.cc` to avoid
duplicating the code between multiple engines. It mimics the hair attributes
process.
Volume object grid transforms and other per object uniforms are packed into
one UBO per object. The grid transform is now based on object which simplify
the matrix preparations.
This also gets rid of the double transforms and use object info orco factors
for volume objects.
Tagging @brecht because he did the initial implementation of Volume Grids.
This commit removes all EEVEE specific code from the `gpu_shader_material*.glsl`
files. It defines a clear interface to evaluate the closure nodes leaving
more flexibility to the render engine.
Some of the long standing workaround are fixed:
- bump mapping support is no longer duplicating a lot of node and is instead
compiled into a function call.
- bump rewiring to Normal socket is no longer needed as we now use a global
`g_data.N` for that.
Closure sampling with upstread weight eval is now supported if the engine needs
it.
This also makes all the material GLSL sources use `GPUSource` for better
debugging experience. The `GPUFunction` parsing now happens in `GPUSource`
creation.
The whole `GPUCodegen` now uses the `ShaderCreateInfo` and is object type
agnostic. Is has also been rewritten in C++.
This patch changes a view behavior for EEVEE:
- Mix shader node factor imput is now clamped.
- Tangent Vector displacement behavior is now matching cycles.
- The chosen BSDF used for SSR might change.
- Hair shading may have very small changes on very large hairs when using hair
polygon stripes.
- ShaderToRGB node will remove any SSR and SSS form a shader.
- SSS radius input now is no longer a scaling factor but defines an average
radius. The SSS kernel "shape" (radii) are still defined by the socket default
values.
Appart from the listed changes no other regressions are expected.
