This addresses reduced visibility of scenes (as displayed in the VR
headset) that can result from the 8-bit color depth format currently
used for XR swapchain images.
By switching to a swapchain format with higher color depth (RGB10_A2,
RGBA16, RGBA16F) for supported runtimes, visibility in VR should be
noticeably improved.
However, current limitations are lack of support for these higher
color depth formats by some XR runtimes, especially for OpenGL.
Also important to note that GPU_offscreen_create() now explicitly
takes in the texture format (eGPUTextureFormat) instead of a
"high_bitdepth" boolean.

After looking into task isolation issues with Sergey, we couldn't find the
reason behind the deadlocks that we are getting in T87938 and a Sprite Fright
file involving motion blur renders.
There is no apparent place where we adding or waiting on tasks in a task group
from different isolation regions, which is what is known to cause problems. Yet
it still hangs. Either we do not understand some limitation of TBB isolation,
or there is a bug in TBB, but we could not figure it out.
Instead the idea is to use isolation only where we know we need it: when
holding a mutex lock and then doing some multithreaded operation within that
locked region. Three places where we do this now:
* Generated images
* Cached BVH tree building
* OpenVDB lazy grid loading
Compared to the more automatic approach previously used, there is the downside
that it is easy to miss places where we need isolation. Yet doing it more
automatically is also causing unexpected issue and bugs that we found no
solution for, so this seems better.
Patch implemented by Sergey and me.

Under some circumstances using task isolation can cause deadlocks.
Previously, our task pool implementation would run all tasks in an
isolated region. Now using task isolation is optional and can be
turned on/off for individual task pools.
Task pools that spawn new tasks recursively should never enable
task isolation. There is a new check that finds these cases at runtime.
Right now this check is disabled, so that this commit is a pure refactor.
It will be enabled in an upcoming commit.
This fixes T88598.

In 2.81 there was a change to increase the performance of viewport
animation rendering. This change would perform the color management on the
GPU if the only 8bit was needed. This saved CPU cycles and data
transfer.
The issue is that in the image editor or when saving the image the CM
will be reapplied. Although the speed is desired, exporting the actual
colors has more priority.
In the ticket there is an analysis that shows that shows that this fix
is the correct short term step to take. It would be better that the
render result is aware of the color space of its buffers so the applying
color management could be skipped when saving to disk or drawing in the
image editor.
The issue with this change is the performance penalty it has.

Caused by rB5b34d11b55e0.
Above commit restored the view matrices in ED_view3d_draw_offscreen
_before_ they can be stored in the ImBuff (see ED_view3d_draw_offscreen
/ texture_paint_image_from_view_exec).
Now make restoring the view matrices optional and dont do this in case
of reprojection, so the used matrices can still be saved in the ImBuff
later.

During viewport render animation the gpu textures weren't tagged as
invalid. As the image uv editor now draws the gpu texture only the first
was shown as it wasn't refreshed with the actual image data.
This replace `GPU_clear()` by `GPU_clear_color()` and `GPU_clear_depth()`.
Since we always set the clear value before clearing, it is unecessary
to track the clear color state.
Moreover, it makes it clearer what we clear the framebuffer to.
The abbreviation 'init' is brief, unambiguous and already used
in thousands of places, also initialize is often accidentally
written with British spelling.
This patch enables TBB as the default task scheduler. TBB stands for Threading Building Blocks and is developed by Intel. The library contains several threading patters. This patch maps blenders BLI_task_* function to their counterpart. After this patch we can add more patterns. A promising one is TBB:graph that can be used for depsgraph, draw manager and compositor.
Performance changes depends on the actual hardware. It was tested on different hardwares from laptops to workstations and we didn't detected any downgrade of the performance.

The `BKE_animsys.h` and `anim_sys.c` files already had a an "AnimData
API" section. The code in that section has now been split off, and
placed into `BKE_anim_data.h` and `anim_data.c`.
All files that used to include `BKE_animsys.h` have been adjusted to
only include the animation headers they need (sometimes none).
No functional changes.
Both the MS headers and blender headers define the HKEY
which gives all kind of inclusion order issues.
This diff renames all *KEY constants to EVT_*KEY to resolve

The old convention was easy to confuse with ScrArea.
Part of https://developer.blender.org/T74432.
This is mostly a batch rename with some manual fixing. Only single word
variable names are changed, no prefixed/suffixed names.
Brecht van Lommel and Campbell Barton both gave me a green light for
this convention change.
Also ran clan clang format on affected files.
Motivation the functions get 3 different kind of flag parameters (ImBuf,
DrawType, OffscreenRendering) the naming of the flags were not clear,
leading to mistakes and unnecessary time spend debugging.
Using a struct here allows to change given parameters to the callbacks
without having to edit all callbacks functions, which is always noisy
and time consuming.
The Viewport Render Keyframes operator didn't include keyframes from
grease pencil animation or from mesh shape key animation (see T72861).
To find all related datablocks that could be considered as part of the
selected object, `BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(..., IDWALK_RECURSE)` is
used. To prevent relations like constraint targets from being visited,
the recursion is stopped when it finds a different object.

This feature makes it possible to do a viewport render (a.k.a.
playblast) by only rendering those frames on which the selected objects
have a keyframe.
The frames to render are stored in a `BLI_bitmap`, which has a bit for
each frame set to 0 (skip) or 1 (render). An alternative approach would
be to construct a set of all keyframes to render, but that would make
both constructing the list and looking up frames in the list more
complex.
The only thing this feature does is skip OpenGL rendering of a frame. As
a result, 'skipped' frames are still included in the output, but just
use the render result of the last-rendered frame. This is exactly what's
described in T72229.
