The old Python OBJ importer had a (somewhat confusingly named) "Keep
Vertex Order -> Poly Groups" option, that imported OBJ groups as
"vertex groups" on the resulting mesh. All vertices of any face were
assigned the vertex group, with a 1.0 weight.
The new C++ importer did not have this option. It was trying to do
something with vertex groups, but failing to actually achieve
anything :) -- the vertex groups were created on the wrong object
(later on overwritten by "nomain mesh to main mesh" operation);
vertex weights were set to 1.0/vertex_count, and each vertex was only
set to be in one group, even when it belongs to multiple faces from
different groups. End result was that to the user, vertex groups were
not visible/present at all (see T98874).
This patch adds the import option (named "Vertex Groups"), which is
off by default, and fixes the import code logic to actually do the
right thing. Tested on file from T98874; vertex groups are imported
just like with the Python importer.

Adds support for vertex colors to OBJ I/O.
Importer:
- Supports both "xyzrgb" and "MRGB" vertex color formats.
- Whenever vertex color is present in the file for a model, it is
imported and a Color attribute is created (per-vertex, full float
color data type). Color coming from the file is assumed to be sRGB,
and is converted to linear upon import.
Exporter:
- Option to export the vertex colors. Defaults to "off", since not
all 3rd party software supports vertex colors.
- When the option is "on", if a mesh has a color attribute layer,
the active one is exported in "xyzrgb" form. If the mesh has
per-face-corner colors, they are averaged on the vertices.
Colors are converted from linear to sRGB upon export.

The following CMake options have been added (enabled by default),
except for the lite build configuration.
- WITH_IO_STL
- WITH_IO_WAVEFRONT_OBJ
- WITH_IO_GPENCIL (for grease pencil SVG importing).
Note that it was already possible to disable grease pencil export
by disabling WITH_PUGIXML & WITH_HARU.
This is intended to keep the lite builds fast and small for building,
linking & execution.

Some operators OR'ed the existing flags in a way that made it seem
the value might already have some values set.
Replace this with assignment as no flags are set and the convention
with almost all operators is to write the value directly.
The new OBJ importer operator didn't register an undo event.
This commit enables the register and undo flags for the operator.

New OBJ exporter is missing "Path Mode" setting for exporting .mtl
files. The options that used to be available were: Auto, Absolute,
Relative, Match, Strip Path, Copy. All of them are important. The new
behavior (without any UI option to control it) curiously does not match
any of the previous setting. New behavior is like "Relative, but to the
source blender file, and not the destination export file".
Most of the previous logic was only present in Python based code
(bpy_extras.io_utils.path_reference and friends). The bulk of this
commit is porting that to C++.

Continued improvements to the new C++ based OBJ importer.
Performance: about 2x faster.
- Rungholt.obj (several meshes, 263MB file): Windows 12.7s -> 5.9s, Mac 7.7s -> 3.1s.
- Blender 3.0 splash (24k meshes, 2.4GB file): Windows 97.3s -> 53.6s, Mac 137.3s -> 80.0s.
- "Windows" is VS2022, AMD Ryzen 5950X (32 threads), "Mac" is Xcode/clang 13, M1Max (10 threads).
- Slightly reduced memory usage during import as well.
The performance gains are a combination of several things:
- Replacing `std::stof` / `std::stoi` with C++17 `from_chars`.
- Stop reading input file char-by-char using `std::getline`, and instead read in 64kb chunks, and parse from there (taking care of possibly handling lines split mid-way due to chunk boundaries).
- Removing abstractions for splitting a line by some char,
- Avoid tiny memory allocations: instead of storing a vector of polygon corners in each face, store all the corners in one big array, and per-face only store indices "where do corners start, and how many". Likewise, don't store full string names of material/group names for each face; only store indices into overall material/group names arrays.
- Stop always doing mesh validation, which is slow. Do it just like the Alembic importer does: only do validation if found some invalid faces during import, or if requested by the user via an import setting checkbox (which defaults to off).
- Stop doing "collection sync" for each object being added; instead do the collection sync right after creating all the objects.
Cleanup / Robustness:
This reworking of parser (see "removing abstractions" point above) means that all the functions that were in `parser_string_utils` file are gone, and replaced with different set of functions. However they are not OBJ specific, so as pointed out during review of the previous differential, they are now in `source/blender/io/common` library.
Added gtest coverage for said functions as well; something that was only indirectly covered by obj tests previously.
Rework of some bits of parsing made the parser actually better able to deal with invalid syntax. E.g. previously, if a face corner were a `/123` string, it would have incorrectly treated that as a vertex index (since it would get "hey that's one number" after splitting a string by a slash), instead of properly marking it as invalid syntax.
Added gtest coverage for .mtl parsing; something that was not covered by any tests at all previously.

e9bbfd0c8c (2021 Oct 31), merges latest master (2022 Apr 4),
adds a bunch of tests, and fixes a bunch of stuff found by said
tests. The fixes are detailed in the differential.
Timings on my machine (Windows, VS2022 release build, AMD Ryzen
5950X 32 threads):
- Rungholt minecraft level (269MB file, 1 mesh): 54.2s -> 14.2s
(memory usage: 7.0GB -> 1.9GB).
- Blender 3.0 splash scene: "I waited for 90 minutes and gave up"
-> 109s. Now, this time is not great, but at least 20% of the
time is spent assigning unique names for the imported objects
(the scene has 24 thousand objects). This is not specific to obj
importer, but rather a general issue across blender overall.
Test suite file updates done in Subversion tests repository.

This is patch D14349 from Aras Pranckevicius.
The logic in the code was _completely different_ from the documentation
and what the python exporter in 3.0 did. The new code assumed that
"export material groups" meant "append material name to the object name",
and was only ever kicking in when the "export object groups" option was
also checked. But the proper behavior (as in 3.0 exporter & the online docs),
is to emit g objectname_materialname before each usemtl line. Which is something entirely else.
This adds maintence overhead and it is not that useful when we have reset to default.
If this is something that we want it should be added dynamically.
