Remembering the number of curves of every type makes it fast to know
whether processing specific to a single curve type has to be done.
This information was accessed in quite a few places, so this should be
an overall reduction in overhead for the new curves type.
The cache is computed eagerly, in other words every time after changing
the curve types. In order to reduce verbosity I added helper functions
for some common ways to set the types.

Works for both Cycles and multires bake. Triangles are baked to multiple
UDIM images if they span across them, though such UV layouts are generally
discouraged as there is no filtering across UDIM tiles.
The bake margin currently only works within UDIM tiles. For the extend method
this is logical, for the adjacent faces method it may be useful to support
copying pixels from other UDIM tiles, though this seems somewhat complicated.

The original mistake I made in b9febb54a4 was thinking
that the input curve object data to `BKE_displist_make_curveTypes`
was already copied from the original. I think I misread some of its
`ID` flags. This commit places the result of curves evaluation in a
duplicated curve instead, and copies the edit mode pointers
necessary for drawing overlays. `Curve` needs to know not to
free those pointers.
I still don't have a full understanding of why some of the tactics I've
used work and others don't. I've probably tried around 8 different
solutions at this point, and this is the best I came up with.
The dependency graph seems to have some handling of edit mode
pointers that make the edit mode overlays work if the evaluated
result is only an empty curve created by the evaluated geometry set.
This doesn't work with the current method and I need to set the
edit mode pointers at the end of evaluation explicitly.
We're constrained by the confusing duality of the old curves system
combined with the new design using the evaluated geometry set.
Older areas of Blender expect the evaluated `Curve` to be a copy
of the original, even if it was replaced by some arbitrary evaluated mesh.

Above commit mixed up source and destination meshes causing bad lookups

Now make sure we get normals from our destination mesh to project along.
Note this was only reported for Projected Face Interpolated mode, but
same was true for Projected Edge Interpolated mode (though that one is a

When in mesh editmode, attributes point to bmesh customdata, the
attribute data is empty since custom data is stored per element instead
of a single array there (same es UVs etc.).
Opposed to e.g. UVs, general attributes were not setting their data
length/size to zero in case of editmode though, which could lead to
- crash in Outliner Data Api view [that was reported in T95922]
- RuntimeError such as the following:
```
RuntimeError: bpy_prop_collection[index]: internal error, valid index 0
given in 8 sized collection, but value not found
```
Now check for mesh editmode in `BKE_id_attribute_data_length` (and
return zero in that case).
Alternatively, the check could also be done in
`rna_Attribute_data_length` only (such as UVs do in
`rna_MeshUVLoopLayer_data_length`).

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.
This is mostly a cleanup to avoid hardcoding the eager calculation of
normals it isn't necessary, by reducing calls to `BKE_mesh_calc_normals`
and by removing calls to `BKE_mesh_normals_tag_dirty` when the mesh
is newly created and already has dirty normals anyway. This reduces
boilerplate code and makes the "dirty by default" state more clear.
Any regressions from this commit should be easy to fix, though the
lazy calculation is solid enough that none are expected.
This adds support for rendering motion blur for volumes, using their
velocity field. This works for fluid simulations and imported VDB
volumes. For the latter, the name of the velocity field can be set per
volume object, with automatic detection of velocity fields that are
split into 3 scalar grids.
A new parameter is also added to scale velocity for more artistic control.
Like for Alembic and USD caches, a parameter to set the unit of time in
which the velocity vectors are expressed is also added. For Blender gas
simulations, the velocity unit should always be in seconds, so this is
only exposed for volume objects which may come from external OpenVDB
files.
These parameters are available under the `Render` panels for the fluid
domain and the volume object data properties respectively.

Continuing the refactors described in T93602, this commit moves
the face dot tag set by the subdivision surface modifier out of
`MVert` to `MeshRuntime`. This clarifies its status as runtime data
and allows further refactoring of mesh positions in the future.
Before, `BKE_modifiers_uses_subsurf_facedots` was used to check
whether subsurf face dots should be drawn, but now we can just check
if the tags exist on the mesh. Modifiers that create new new geometry
or modify topology will already remove the array by clearing mesh
runtime data.

In some circumstances singular files with numbers in their name (like
turntable-1080p.png or frame-1042.png) might be detected as a UDIM.
The root cause in this particular instance was because `BKE_image_get_tile_info`
believed this file to be a tiled texture and replaced the filename with
a tokenized version of it. However, later on, the code inside `image_open_single`
did not believe it was tiled because only 1 file was detected and our
tiled textures require at least 2. This discrepancy lead to the broken
filename situation.
This was a regression since rB180b66ae8a1f as that introduced the
tokenization changes.

This commit changes the Curve to Mesh node to work with `Curves`
instead of `CurveEval`. The change ends up basically completely
rewriting the node, since the different attribute storage means that
the decisions made previously don't make much sense anymore.
The main loops are now "for each attribute: for each curve combination"
rather than the other way around, with the goal of taking advantage
of the locality of curve attributes. This improvement is quite
noticeable with many small curves; I measured a 4-5x improvement
(around 4-5s to <1s) when converting millions of curves to tens of
millions of faces. I didn't obverse any change in performance compared
to 3.1 with fewer curves though.
The changes also solve an algorithmic flaw where any interpolated
attributes would be evaluated for every curve combination instead
of just once per curve. This can be a large improvement when there
are many profile curves.
The code relies heavily on a function `foreach_curve_combination`
which calculates some basic information about each combination and
calls a templated function. I made assumptions about unnecessary reads
being removed by compiler optimizations. For further performance
improvements in the future that might be an area to investigate.
Another might be using a "for a group of curves: for each attribute:
for each curve" pattern to increase the locality of memory access.

This patch contains an initial pixel extractor for PBVH and an initial paint brush implementation.
PBVH is an accelleration structure blender uses internally to speed up 3d painting operations.
At this moment it is extensively used by sculpt, vertex painting and weight painting.
For the 3d texturing brush we will be using the PBVH for texture painting.
Currently PBVH is organized to work on geometry (vertices, polygons and triangles).
For texture painting this should be extended it to use pixels.

Screen recording has been done on a Mac Mini with a 6 core 3.3 GHZ Intel processor.
# Scope
This patch only contains an extending uv seams to fix uv seams. This is not actually we want, but was easy to add
to make the brush usable.
Pixels are places in the PBVH_Leaf nodes. We want to introduce a special node for pixels, but that will be done
in a separate patch to keep the code review small. This reduces the painting performance when using
low and medium poly assets.
In workbench textures aren't forced to be shown. For now use Material/Rendered view.
# Rasterization process
The rasterization process will generate the pixel information for a leaf node. In the future those
leaf nodes will be split up into multiple leaf nodes to increase the performance when there
isn't enough geometry. For this patch this was left out of scope.
In order to do so every polygon should be uniquely assigned to a leaf node.
For each leaf node
for each polygon
If polygon not assigned
assign polygon to node.
Polygons are to complicated to be used directly we have to split the polygons into triangles.
For each leaf node
for each polygon
extract triangles from polygon.
The list of triangles can be stored inside the leaf node. The list of polygons aren't needed anymore.
Each triangle has:
poly_index.
vert_indices
delta barycentric coordinate between x steps.
Each triangle is rasterized in rows. Sequential pixels (in uv space) are stored in a single structure.
image position
barycentric coordinate of the first pixel
number of pixels
triangle index inside the leaf node.
During the performed experiments we used a fairly simple rasterization process by
finding the UV bounds of an triangle and calculate the barycentric coordinates per
pixel inside the bounds. Even for complex models and huge images this process is
normally finished within 0.5 second. It could be that we want to change this algorithm
to reduce hickups when nodes are initialized during a stroke.

**Relevant to Artists:** This patch adds an option to the Parenting
menu, `Object (Keep Transform Without Inverse)`, and Apply menu, `Parent
Inverse`. The operators preserve the child's world transform without
using the parent inverse matrix. Effectively, we set the child's origin
to the parent. When the child has an identity local transform, then the
child is world-space aligned with its parent (scale excluded).
**Technical:** In both cases, the hidden parent inverse matrix is
generally set to identity (cleared or "not used") as long as the parent
has no shear. If the parent has shear, then this matrix will not be
entirely cleared. It will contain shear to counter the parent's shear.
This is required, otherwise the object's local matrix cannot be properly
decomposed into location, rotation and scale, and thus cannot preserve
the world transform.
If the child's world transform has shear, then its world transform is
not preserved. This is currently not supported for consistency in the
handling of shear during the other parenting ops: Parent (Keep
Transform), Clear [Parent] and Keep Transform. If it should work, then
another patch should add the support for all of them.

Assume that only one layer matches the id and return instead
of continuing to iterate over attributes after the layers have
been potentially reallocated.
When GPU subdivision is enabled the mesh objects remain unsubdivided on
the CPU side, and subdivision should be requested somewhat manually (via
`BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh`).
When referencing an object, the Object Info node calls
`bke::object_get_evaluated_geometry_set` which first checks if a Geometry
Set is present on the object (unless we have a mesh in edit mode). If so
it will return it, if not, the object type is discriminated, which will
return a properly subdivided mesh object via `add_final_mesh_as_geometry_component`.
The unsubdivided mesh is returned because apparently the check on the
Geometry Set always succeeds (as it is always set in `mesh_build_data`).
However, the mesh inside this Geometry Set is not subdivided.
This adds a check for a MeshComponent in this Geometry Set, and if one
exists, calls `add_final_mesh_as_geometry_component` which will ensure
that the mesh is subdivided on the CPU side as well.

Add a new operator, "Start Tweaking Strip Actions (Full Stack)", which
allows you to insert keyframes and preserve the pose that you visually
keyed while upper strips are evaluating,
The old operator has been renamed from "Start Tweaking Strip Actions" to
"Start Tweaking Strip Actions (Lower Stack)" and remains the default for
the hotkey {key TAB}.
**Limitations, Keyframe Remapping Failure Cases**:
1. For *transitions* above the tweaked strip, keyframe remapping will
fail for channel values that are affected by the transition. A work
around is to tweak the active strip without evaluating the upper NLA
stack.
It's not supported because it's non-trivial and I couldn't figure it
out for all transition combinations of blend modes. In the future, it
would be nice if transitions (and metas) supported nested tracks
instead of using the left/right strips for the transitions. That
would allow the transitioned strips to overlap in time. It would also
allow N strips to be part of the (previously) left and right strips,
or perhaps even N strips being transitioned in sequence (similar to a
blend tree). Proper keyframe remapping through all that is currently
beyond my mathematical ability. And even if I could figure it out,
would it make sense to keyframe remap through a transition?
//This case is reported to the user for failed keyframe insertions.//
2. Full replace upper strip that contains the keyed channels.
//This case is reported to the user for failed keyframe insertions.//
3. When the same action clip occurs multiple times (colored Red to
denote it's a linked strip) and vertically overlaps the tweaked
strip, then the remapping will generally fail and is expected to
fail.
I don't plan on adding support for this case as it's also non-trivial
and (hopefully) not a common or expected use case so it shouldn't be
much of an issue to lack support here.
For anyone curious on the cases that would work, it works when the
linked strips aren't time-aligned and when we can insert a keyframe
into the tweaked strip without modifying the current frame output of
the other linked strips. Having all frames sampled and the strip
non-time aligned leads to a working case. But if all key handles are
AUTO, then it's likely to fail.
//This case is not reported to the user for failed keyframe
insertions.//
4. When using Quaternions and a small strip influence on the tweaked
Combine strip. This was an existing failure case before this patch
too but worth a mention in case it causes confusion. D10504 has an
example file with instructions.
//This case is not reported to the user for failed keyframe insertions. //
5. When an upper Replace strip with high influence and animator keys to
Quaternion Combine (Replace is fine). This case is similar to (4)
where Quaternion 180 degree rotation limitations prevent a solution.

Particles baked into memory would never load the final frame because
of an off-by-one error calculating the particles `dietime`.
This value indicates the frame which the particle ceases to exist but
was being set to the end-frame which caused this bug as the scenes
end-frame is inclusive.
While the last frame was properly written and read from memory,
the `dietime` was set to the last frame causing all the particles to be
considered dead when calculating the cached particle system.
The "dir" argument to `BKE_where_on_path` was only actually
used in a few places. It's easier to see where those are if there
isn't always a dummy argument.
When displaying a deform modifier in edit mode, a cached
array of positions is used. Parallelizing bounds calculation when
that array exists can improve the framerate when editing slightly
(a few percent). I observed an improvement of the min/max itself
of about 10x (4-5ms to 0.4ms).
If all of the curves are poly curves, the evaluated positions are the
same as the original positions. In this case just reuse the original
positions span as the evaluated positions.
