Previously the attribute name was only stored in the request for curves.
Instead, pass it as part of the "add request" function, so that it is
always used. Since the whole attribute pipeline is name-based,
this can simplify code in a few places.
Instancing with geometry nodes uses just the evaluated Mesh, and ignores the
Object that it came from. That meant that it would try to look up the subsurf
modifier on the instancer object which does not have the subsurf modifier.
Instead of storing a session UUID and looking up the modifier data, store a
point to the subsurf modifier runtime data. Unlike the modifier data, this
runtime data is preserved across depsgraph CoW. It must be for the subdiv
descriptor contained in it to stay valid along with the draw cache.
As a bonus, this moves various Mesh_Runtime variables into the subsurf runtime
data, reducing memory usage for meshes not using subdivision surfaces.
Also fixes T98693, issues with subdivision level >= 8 due to integer overflow.

This patch adds support for PBVH drawing in EEVEE.
Notes:
# PBVH_FACES only. For Multires we'll need an API to get/cache attributes. DynTopo support will be merged in later with sculpt-dev's DynTopo implementation.
# Supports vertex color and UV attributes only; other types can be added fairly easily though.
# Workbench only sends the active vertex color and UV layers to the GPU.
# Added a new draw engine API method, DRW_cdlayer_attr_aliases_add. Please review.
# The vertex format object is now stored in the pbvh.

After this commit, all mesh data extraction and drawing code is in C++,
including headers, making it possible to use improved types for future
performance improvements and simplifications.
The only non-trivial changes are in `draw_cache_impl_mesh.cc`,
where use of certain features and macros in C necessitated larger
changes.
