This commit furthers some of the changes that were started in
rBb9febb54a492 and subsequent commits by changing the way surface
objects are presented to render engines and other users of evaluated
objects in the same way. Instead of presenting evaluated surface objects
as an `OB_SURF` object with an evaluated mesh, `OB_SURF` objects
can now have an evaluated geometry set, which uses the same system
as other object types to deal with multi-type evaluated data.
This clarification makes it more obvious that lots of code that dealt
with the `DispList` type isn't used. It wasn't before either, now it's
just *by design*. Over 1100 lines can be removed. The legacy curve
draw cache code is much simpler now too. The idea behind the further
removal of `DispList` is that it's better to focus optimization efforts
on a single mesh data structure.
One expected functional change is that the evaluated mesh from surface
objects can now be used in geometry nodes with the object info node.
Cycles and the OBJ IO tests had to be tweaked to avoid using evaluated
surface objects instead of the newly exposed mesh objects.

Ref D14069
Based on discussions from T95355 and T94193, the plan is to use
the name "Curves" to describe the data-block container for multiple
curves. Eventually this will replace the existing "Curve" data-block.
However, it will be a while before the curve data-block can be replaced
so in order to distinguish the two curve types in the UI, "Hair Curves"
will be used, but eventually changed back to "Curves".
This patch renames "hair-related" files, functions, types, and variable
names to this convention. A deep rename is preferred to keep code
consistent and to avoid any "hair" terminology from leaking, since the
new data-block is meant for all curve types, not just hair use cases.
The downside of this naming is that the difference between "Curve"
and "Curves" has become important. That was considered during
design discussons and deemed acceptable, especially given the
non-permanent nature of the somewhat common conflict.
Some points of interest:
- All DNA compatibility is lost, just like rBf59767ff9729.
- I renamed `ID_HA` to `ID_CV` so there is no complete mismatch.
- `hair_curves` is used where necessary to distinguish from the
existing "curves" plural.
- I didn't rename any of the cycles/rendering code function names,
since that is also used by the old hair particle system.

With this commit, curve objects support the geometry nodes modifier.
Curves objects now evaluate to `CurveEval` unless there was a previous
implicit conversion (tessellating modifiers, mesh modifiers, or the
settings in the curve "Geometry" panel). In the new code, curves are
only considered to be the wire edges-- any generated surface is a mesh
instead, stored in the evaluated geometry set.
The consolidation of concepts mentioned above allows remove a lot of
code that had to do with maintaining the `DispList` type temporarily
for modifiers and rendering. Instead, render engines see a separate
object for the mesh from the mesh geometry component, and when the
curve object evaluates to a curve, the `CurveEval` is always used for
drawing wire edges.
However, currently the `DispList` type is still maintained and used as
an intermediate step in implicit mesh conversion. In the future, more
uses of it could be changed to use `CurveEval` and `Mesh` instead.
This is mostly not changed behavior, it is just a formalization of
existing logic after recent fixes for 2.8 versions last year and two
years ago. Also, in the future more functionality can be converted
to nodes, removing cases of implicit conversions. For more discussion
on that topic, see T89676.
The `use_fill_deform` option is removed. It has not worked properly
since 2.62, and the choice for filling a curve before or after
deformation will work much better and be clearer with a node system.
Applying the geometry nodes modifier to generate a curve is not
implemented with this commit, so applying the modifier won't work
at all. This is a separate technical challenge, and should be solved
in a separate step.

The problem was that you could getting write access to a grid from a
`const Volume *` without breaking const correctness. I encountered this
when working on support for volumes in the bounding box node. For
geometry nodes there is an important distinction between getting data
"for read" and "for write", with the former returning a `const` version
of the data.
Also, for volumes it was necessary to cast away const, since all of
the relevant functions in `volume.cc` didn't have const versions. This
patch adds `const` in these places, distinguising between "for read"
and "for write" versions of functions where necessary.
The downside is that loading and unloading in the global volume cache
needs const write-access to some member variables. I see that as an
inherent problem that comes up with caching that never has a beautiful
solution anyway.
Some of the const-ness could probably be propogated futher in EEVEE
code, but I'll leave that out, since there is another level of caching.

We make the geometry follow camera like billboards this uses less
geometry. Currently we use half octahedron for now. Goal would be
to use icospheres.
This patch also optimize the case when pointcloud has uniform radius.
However we should premultiply the radius prop by the default radius
beforehand to avoid a multiplication on CPU.
Using geometry instead of pseudo raytraced spheres is more scalable as
we can render as low as 1 or 2 triangle to a full half sphere and can
integrate easily in the render pipeline using a low amount of code.

Sculpt Vertex Colors is a painting system that runs inside sculpt mode, reusing all its tools and optimizations. This provides much better performance, easier to maintain code and more advanced features (new brush engine, filters, symmetry options, masks and face sets compatibility...). This is also the initial step for future features like vertex painting in Multires and brushes that can sculpt and paint at the same time.
This commit includes:
- SCULPT_UNDO_COLOR for undo support in sculpt mode
- SCULPT_UPDATE_COLOR and PBVH flags and rendering
- Sculpt Color API functions
- Sculpt capability for sculpt tools (only enabled in the Paint Brush for now)
- Rendering support in workbench (default to Sculpt Vertex Colors except in Vertex Paint)
- Conversion operator between MPropCol (Sculpt Vertex Colors) and MLoopCol (Vertex Paint)
- Remesher reprojection in the Voxel Remehser

This adds object motion blur vectors for EEVEE as well as better noise
reduction for it.
For TAA reprojection we just compute the motion vector on the fly based on
camera motion and depth buffer. This makes possible to store another motion
vector only for the blurring which is not useful for TAA history fetching.
Motion Data is saved per object & per geometry if using deformation blur.
We support deformation motion blur by saving previous VBO and modifying the
actual GPUBatch for the geometry to include theses VBOs.
We store Previous and Next frame motion in the same motion vector buffer
(RG for prev and BA for next). This makes non linear motion blur (like
rotating objects) less prone to outward/inward blur.
We also improve the motion blur post process to expand outside the objects
border. We use a tile base approach and the max size of the blur is set via
a new render setting.
We use a background reconstruction method that needs another setting
(Background Separation).
Sampling is done using a fixed 8 dithered samples per direction. The final
render samples will clear the noise like other stochastic effects.
One caveat is that hair particles are not yet supported. Support will
come in another patch.

Only the volume drawing part is really finished and exposed to the user. Hair
plugs into the existing hair rendering code and is fairly straightforward. The
pointcloud drawing is a hack using overlays rather than Eevee and workbench.
The most tricky part for volume rendering is the case where each volume grid
has a different transform, which requires an additional matrix in the shader
and non-trivial logic in Eevee volume drawing. In the common case were all the
transforms match we don't use the additional per-grid matrix in the shader.

This is the unification of all overlays into one overlay engine as described in T65347.
I went over all the code making it more future proof with less hacks and removing old / not relevent parts.
Goals / Acheivements:
- Remove internal shader usage (only drw shaders)
- Remove viewportSize and viewportSizeInv and put them in gloabl ubo
- Fixed some drawing issues: Missing probe option and Missing Alt+B clipping of some shader
- Remove old (legacy) shaders dependancy (not using view UBO).
- Less shader variation (less compilation time at first load and less patching needed for vulkan)
- removed some geom shaders when I could
- Remove static e_data (except shaders storage where it is OK)
- Clear the way to fix some anoying limitations (dithered transparency, background image compositing etc...)
- Wireframe drawing now uses the same batching capabilities as workbench & eevee (indirect drawing).
- Reduced complexity, removed ~3000 Lines of code in draw (also removed a lot of unused shader in GPU).
- Post AA to avoid complexity and cost of MSAA.
Remaining issues:
- ~~Armature edits, overlay toggles, (... others?) are not refreshing viewport after AA is complete~~
- FXAA is not the best for wires, maybe investigate SMAA
- Maybe do something more temporally stable for AA.
- ~~Paint overlays are not working with AA.~~
- ~~infront objects are difficult to select.~~
- ~~the infront wires sometimes goes through they solid counterpart (missing clear maybe?) (toggle overlays on-off when using infront+wireframe overlay in solid shading)~~
Note: I made some decision to change slightly the appearance of some objects to simplify their drawing. Namely the empty arrows end (which is now hollow/wire) and distance points of the cameras/spots being done by lines.

Note this was broken even in 2.7x.
We had a different logic for the plane wire, as for the plane itself.
And they were both wrong when changing the camera shift or the stereo
pivot.
Both of their logic is now unified and correct.
Also I had to create a new gpu batch for the quad wires, since there is
no state that allows me to filter out the geometry, and the square gpu
batch is quite different than the quad one (2d x 3d and orientation).

This now only upload data per loops to the GPU, making use of index buffer
to draw polygon. This make use of the vertex cache, speed up renders
and saves a lot of vram.
Update performance is also slightly faster and can even be improved further
by updating only uvs or vcol independently.
This commits breaks texture paint batches. It will be added back in another
commit.
Shaded triangles are not yet implemented (request from gpumaterials).
This also changes the mechanism to draw curve normals to make it not
dependant on normal size display. This way different viewport can
reuse the same batch.
The shader is way simpler and run way faster on lower end hardware
(2x faster on intel HD5000) but did not notice any improvement on AMD Vega.
This also adds a few changes to the way the wireframes are drawn:
- the slider is more linearly progressive.
- optimize display shows all wires and progressively decrease "inner" wires
intensity. This is subject to change in the future.
- text/surface/metaballs support is pretty rough. More work needs to be done.
This remove the optimization introduced in f1975a4639.
This also removes the GPU side "sharpness" calculation which means that
animated meshes with wireframe display will update slower.
The CPU sharpness calculation has still room for optimization. Also
it is not excluded that GPU calculation can be added back as a
separate preprocessing pass (saving the computation result [compute or
feedback]).
The goal here was to have more speed for static objects and remove
the dependency of having buffer textures with triangle count. This is
preparation work for multithreading the whole DRW manager.
This only happens after a certain threshold.
We sort triangles into 2 bins (start and end of the buffer) based on a
threshold and just draw the start bin if the wireframe slider is low enough.
This optimization is disabled for deformed meshes.
This should help resolve (to some extent) T58188.
