An apostrophe should not be used because it is not a mark of plural,

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.

Those collections were so far mainly just tagged as fake user (even
though a few places in code already incremented usercount on them).
Since we now clear the fakeuser flag when linking/appending data, ensure
that these collections are preserved by making these usages regular ID

The "PROP" in the name reflects its generic status, and removing
"LOOP" makes sense because it is no longer associated with just
mesh face corners. In general the goal is to remove extra semantic
meaning from the custom data types.
The Alembic procedural was only enabled during viewport renders
originally because it did not have any caching strategy. Now that
is does, we can allow its usage in final renders.
This also removes the `dag_eval_mode` argument passing to
`ModifierTypeInfo.dependsOnTime` which was originally added to detect if
we are doing a viewport render for enabling the procedural.

This is similar to e032ca2e25 which removed the
callback for volumes. Now that we have geometry sets, there is
no need to define a callback for every data type, and this wasn't
used. Procedural curves/hair editing will use nodes rather than new
modifier types anyway.
This patch exposes the Cycles Alembic Procedural through the MeshSequenceCache
modifier in order to use and test it from Blender.
To enable it, one has to switch the render feature set to experimental and
activate the Procedural in the modifier. An Alembic Procedural is then
created for each CacheFile from Blender set to use the Procedural, and each
Blender object having a MeshSequenceCache modifier is added to list of objects
of the right procedural.
The procedural's parameters derive from the CacheFile's properties which are
already exposed in the UI through the modifier, although more Cycles specific
options might be added in the future.
As there is currently no cache controls and since we load all the data at the
beginning of the render session, the procedural is only available during
viewport renders at the moment. When an Alembic procedural is rendered, data
from the archive are not read on the Blender side.
If a Cycles render is not active and the CacheFile is set to use the Cycles Procedural,
bounding boxes are used to display the objects in the scene as a signal that the
objects are not processed by Blender anymore. This is standard in other DCCs.
However this does not reduce the memory usage from Blender as the Alembic data
was already loaded either during an import or during a .blend file read.
This is mostly a hack to test the Cycles Alembic procedural until we have a
better Blender side mechanism for letting renderers load their own geometry,
which will be based on import and export settings on Collections (T68933).

As noted in T80164, there are quite a few area of Blender where the
"Reset to Default Value" operator in button context menus doesn't work.
Modifiers are one of them, because the DNA defaults system was never
set up for them.
Additionally, this should make modifier versioning easier. Whenever a
new field is added it should be automatically initialized to the
default value.
I had to make some ordering changes in the following modifiers to work
around an error with `-Wsign-conversion` in the macros:
- Solidify Modifier
- Corrective Smooth Modifier
- Screw Modifier

For modifier shortcuts we added a "custom_data" field to panels.
This commit uses the same system for accessing the list data that
corresponds to each panel. This way the context is only used once
and the modifier for each panel can be accessed more easily later.
This ends up being mostly a cleanup commit with a few small changes
in interface_panel.c. The large changes in the UI functions are due
to the fact that the panel custom data is now passed around as a
single pointer instead of being created again for every panel.
The list_index variable in Panel.runtime is removed as it's now
unnecessary.

This is part of a greater blenloader decentralization effort (T76372).
For modifiers the goal is that fewer files have to be modified when
a new modifier is added.
This patch just adds the `blendWrite` and `blendRead` callbacks to
`ModifierTypeInfo` but does not change any other code yet. In the next
steps, modifier specific code will be moved from `writefile.c` and
`readfile.c` into their corresponding `MOD_*` files.
This patch implements the list panel system D7490 for modifiers.
It also moves modifier drawing to a callback in ModifierTypeInfo
in line with the extensible architecture refactoring goal T75724.
This adds a PanelRegister callback and utilities for registering
panels and subpanels. It also adds the callbacks for expansion saving
and drag and drop reordering described in D7490.
These utilities, callbacks, and other common UI elements shared
between modifiers live in MOD_ui_common.c.
Because modifier buttons are now in panels, we can make use of
subpanels for organization. The UI layouts also use the single
column layout style consistently used elsewhere in Blender.
Additionally, the mode-setting buttons are aligned and ordered
consistently with the outliner.
However, the large number of UI changes in this patch may mean
that additional polishing is required in master.
Thanks to William Reynish (@billreynish) who did a fair amount of the
layout work and to Julian Eisel (@Severin) for consistent help.

I don't know if it was the intended behavior or not, but having brush
and canvas data at the same time with dymanic paint, would lead to the
object trying to act as a brush and a canvas at the same time.
We can't currently handle this with the new depsgraph, and it could
legitimately lead to bad feedback loops.
So now, to be more consistent with the GUI, I've made it only use the
current set type (brush or canvas) as the final type of the object.
That is, you can only have a object be a brush or a canvas, not both at
the same time.
The issue was caused by mesh needed for dynamic paint brush being
stored in the modifier. That make it to be freed and set to NULL
when running copy-on-write.
Solved by moving the mesh to be stored in modifier's runtime data.
The general idea of this change is to have a runtime data pointer
in the ModifierData, so it can be preserved through copy-on-write
updates by the dependency graph.
This is where subdivision surface modifier can store its topology
cache, so it is not getting trashed on every copy-on-write which
is happening when moving a vertex.
Similar mechanism should be used by multiresolution, dynamic paint
and some other modifiers which cache evaluated data.
This fixes T61746.
Thing to keep in mind, that there are more reports about slow
subdivision surface in the tracker, but that boils down to the
fact that those have a lot of extraordinary vertices, and hence
a lot slower to evaluated topology.
Other thing is, this speeds up oeprations which doesn't change
topology (i.e. moving vertices).

We already have different storages for cddata of verts, edges etc.,
'simply' do the same for the mask flags we use all around Blender code

Reason we need this is that some cddata types (like Normals) are
actually shared between verts/polys/loops, and we don’t want to generate
clnors everytime we request vnors!
As a side note, this also does final fix to T59338, which was the

The main goal of this patch is to cleanup the interface of every modifier. More specifically the interface of modifiers should be DerivedMesh-free.
Internally some modifiers still use DerivedMesh. However I think it is better when the wrappers are in the modifiers so that higher level functions can use the simplified interface.
This patch removes the applyModifier_DM and applyModifierEM_DM functions. In a previous patch (rB3614d9d) the other functions that used DerivedMesh have been removed.
