openSubdiv_init() would detect available evaluators before any OpenGL context
exists, causing a crash with libepoxy. This test however is redundant as we
already check the requirements on the Blender side through the GPU API.
To simplify things, completely remove the device detection in the opensubdiv
module and reduce the evaluators to just CPU and GPU. The plan here is to move
to the GPU module abstraction over OpenGL/Metal/Vulkan and so all these
different backends no longer make sense.
This also removes the user preference for OpenSubdiv compute device, which was
not used for the new GPU subdivision implementation.

Part of T98560.
See https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Interface/Views
Adds all the basic functionality needed for grid views. They display
items in a grid of rows and columns, typically with a preview image and
a label underneath. Think of the main region in the Asset Browser.
Current features:
- Active item
- Notifier listening (also added this to the tree view)
- Performance: Skip adding buttons that are not scrolled into view
(solves performance problems for big asset libraries, for example).
- Custom item size
- Preview items (items that draw a preview with a label underneath)
- Margins between items scale so the entire region width is filled with
column, rather than leaving a big empty block at the right if there's
not enough space for another column (like the File and current Asset
Browser does it).
- "Data-View Item" theme colors. Not shown in the UI yet.
No user visible changes expected since the grid views aren't used for
anything yet.
This was developed as part of a rewrite of the Asset Browser UI
(`asset-browser-grid-view` branch), see T95653. There's no reason to
keep this part in a branch, continuing development in master makes
things easier.
Grid and tree views have a lot of very similar code, so I'm planning to
unify them to a degree. I kept things separate for the start to first
find out how much and what exactly makes sense to override.
Those geometry types are expected to behave the same as e.g. mesh
with respect to data copying. The fact that this was not enabled
already was an oversight in the initial commit that added these types.

This patch adds channel region to VSE timeline area for drawing channel
headers. It is synchronizedwith timeline region. 3 basic features are
implemented - channel visibility, locking and name.
Channel data is stored in `SeqTimelineChannel` which can be top-level
owned by `Editing`, or it is owned by meta strip to support nesting.
Strip properties are completely independent and channel properties are
applied on top of particular strip property, thus overriding it.
Implementation is separate from channel regions in other editors. This
is mainly because style and topology is quite different in VSE. But
also code seems to be much more readable this way.
Currently channels use functions similar to VSE timeline to draw
background to provide illusion of transparency, but only for background
and sfra/efra regions.
Great portion of this patch is change from using strip visibility and
lock status to include channel state - this is facilitated by functions
`SEQ_transform_is_locked` and `SEQ_render_is_muted`
Originally this included changes in D14263, but patch was split for
easier review.

This commit makes the dot grid used as background in the node editor
more visually stable when zooming in and out.
The dot grid now uses a continuously subdividing pattern, where
each level of subdivision divides the previous five times, similar to
the line grid in the 3D viewport.
The maximum for the "Grid Levels" theme setting is changed to 3, since
any further subdivisions are too small to be visible.
The "Grid Levels" value for the default themes "Blender Dark" and
"Blender Light" is therefore changed to 3, as well.

This evaluator is used in order to evaluate subdivision at render time, allowing for
faster renders of meshes with a subdivision surface modifier placed at the last
position in the modifier list.
When evaluating the subsurf modifier, we detect whether we can delegate evaluation
to the draw code. If so, the subdivision is first evaluated on the GPU using our own
custom evaluator (only the coarse data needs to be initially sent to the GPU), then,
buffers for the final `MeshBufferCache` are filled on the GPU using a set of
compute shaders. However, some buffers are still filled on the CPU side, if doing so
on the GPU is impractical (e.g. the line adjacency buffer used for x-ray, whose
logic is hardly GPU compatible).
This is done at the mesh buffer extraction level so that the result can be readily used
in the various OpenGL engines, without having to write custom geometry or tesselation
shaders.
We use our own subdivision evaluation shaders, instead of OpenSubDiv's vanilla one, in
order to control the data layout, and interpolation. For example, we store vertex colors
as compressed 16-bit integers, while OpenSubDiv's default evaluator only work for float
types.
In order to still access the modified geometry on the CPU side, for use in modifiers
or transform operators, a dedicated wrapper type is added `MESH_WRAPPER_TYPE_SUBD`.
Subdivision will be lazily evaluated via `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh` which will
create such a wrapper if possible. If the final subdivision surface is not needed on
the CPU side, `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh_no_subsurf` should be used.
Enabling or disabling GPU subdivision can be done through the user preferences (under
Viewport -> Subdivision).

The VSE grid theme setting is currently used for two things:
* Indicate time intervals (vertical lines)
* As separator between channels (horizontal lines)
This adds visual noise because for the time interval to be visible, the
grid color needs to be bright, resulting in a rectangle-grid backdrop.
Recently, the VSE got a theme setting to customize alternate-row background color.
This should be sufficient to tell the channels apart without the need for a line in between.
Additionally, this patch makes the VSE background use the theme setting as-is,
without hard-coded darkening, to ease the tweaking of themes. This aligns the style
of the VSE backdrop with the rest of Blender (Outliner rows, File Browser, Spreadsheet,
Info and animation editors).

To celebrate the beginning of a new series, it feels like the right time to
give the theme a fresh look while improving on what already works.
The aim of this refresh is to keep a familiar look but with polishing touches
here and there. Like new paint on the walls of your well known house.
The theme for Blender 2.8 was well received but presented a few flaws.
* Transparency on menus and tooltips reduce readability
* Mismatch on certain colors, especially outlines of connected widgets
* Active/open menus highlight was not prominent enough
* Header background mismatch in some editors
At the same time we can make use of new features in 3.0:
* Make panels look like panels again (like in v2.3!)
* Make use of roundness in more widgets
* Since nodes are no longer hard-coded to be transparent, tweak opacity and saturation
* Tweak colors for the new dot grid
This update does not include:
* Meshes in edit mode to match greenish object-data color. This needs tweaks in the code to improve contrast.
* A copy of the Blender 2.8x legacy theme. This could be added to the community themes (shouldn't cost much maintenance, I hope)
There will be certainly small tweaks to do here and there, I've been working using this theme
for months but there can be areas that are missing update. The overall style is presented here.

This patch changes how nodes look visually, in an attempt to fix a number of issues:
* The header background is currently drawn using a theme color fully opaque, this limits the colors we can use because the node name/label is drawn on top.
* Hard-coded transparency makes nodes hard to read. The node backdrop already has alpha so if the user wants it they can set it. This patch uses alpha from the theme.
* Better muted status indicator, instead of simply making everything transparent and the wires inside red, draw a red outline around the node, darken the header and backdrop.
* On muted nodes, display wires behind the backdrop to not interfere with text/widgets inside the node.
Nodes:
* Darken header to improve readability of node label.
* Draw a line under the header
* Thicker outline.
* Do not hard-code transparency on nodes, use the theme's node backdrop alpha component.
* Use angle icon instead of triangle (to be consistent with the [[ https://developer.blender.org/D12814 | changes ]] to panels)

* Do not hard-code the socket outline color to black, use `TH_WIRE` instead
* Do not use `TH_TEXT_HI` for selected sockets, use `TH_ACTIVE` (active node outline)

reduces visual complexity. The dots are meant to provide a reference
when panning and zooming. Based on the design of @pablovazquez, and

The "Grid Levels" controls how many levels of dots are drawn. As the
editor zooms in, the higher levels of dots fade in, making them closer
together visually. The zoom factor at which each grid starts and ends
fading in is controllable in the code, and could be tweaked further
in the future. The new default value is 7, out of a range from 0 to 9.

Back in Blender 2.30, the GUI project brought panels into Blender among other important visual updates.
For the first time it was possible to move the wall of buttons around. Providing a clear separation
between sections (it even allowed the grouping of panels in tabs!)
During the 2.5 redesign, the separation between panels became a line on top of each panel, and panels received
theme settings for background and header colors. The default theme used the same color for both.
In 2.8 the background color of panels was different from headers in the default theme, so the separator
line was removed. While the separator line wasn't elegant (only on top, non-themeable, hard-coded emboss effect),
it provided a sort of separation between panels.
This patch solves the panels-separation by simply adding a margin space around them (not visible in default theme yet).
Even though the margin reduces the width of the working area slightly, it makes room for the upcoming always-visible scrollbars.
Other adjustments:
* Use arrow icon instead of triangle to collapse/expand
* Use rounded corners to match the rest of the UI (editor corners, nodes, etc).

Margin on panels makes use of the `style->panelouter` property that hasn't been

are multiples of 2 and operations on them round better.

This project moves the current UV/Image editor drawing to the draw manager.
Why would we do this:
**Performance**:
Current implementation would draw each texel per time. Multiple texels could be
drawn per pixel what would overwrite the previous result. You can notice this
when working with large textures. Repeat image drawing made this visible by
drawing for a small period of time and stop drawing the rest. Now the rendering
is fast and all repeated images are drawn.
**Alpha drawing**:
Current implementation would draw directly in display space. Giving incorrect
results when displaying alpha transparent images.
This addresses {T52680}, {T74709}, {T79518}
The image editor now can show emission only colors. See {D8234} for
examples.
**Current Limitations**
Using images that are larger than supported by your GPU are resized (eg larger
than 16000x16000 are resized to 8k). This leaves some blurring artifacts. It is
a low priority to add support back of displaying individual pixels of huge
images. There is a design task {T80113} with more detail.
**Implementation overview**
Introduced an Image Engine in the draw module. this engine is responsible for
drawing the texture in the main area of the UV/Image editor. The overlay engine
has a edit_uv overlay which is responsible to draw the UV's, shadows and
overlays specifically for the UV Image editor. The background + checker pattern
is drawn by the overlay_background.
The patch will allow us to share overlays between the 3d viewport and UV/Image
editor more easily. In most cases we just need to switch the `pos` with the `u`
attribute in the vertex shader.
The project can be activated in the user preferences as experimental features.
In a later commit this will be reversed.
