This is a first part of the Shader Create Info system could be.
A shader create info provides a way to define shader structure, resources
and interfaces. This makes for a quick way to provide backend agnostic
binding informations while also making shader variations easy to declare.
- Clear source input (only one file). Cleans up the GPU api since we can create a
shader from one descriptor
- Resources and interfaces are generated by the backend (much simpler than parsing).
- Bindings are explicit from position in the array.
- GPUShaderInterface becomes a trivial translation of enums and string copy.
- No external dependency to third party lib.
- Cleaner code, less fragmentation of resources in several libs.
- Easy to modify / extend at runtime.
- no parser involve, very easy to code.
- Does not hold any data, can be static and kept on disc.
- Could hold precompiled bytecode for static shaders.
This also includes a new global dependency system.
GLSL shaders can include other sources by using #pragma BLENDER_REQUIRE(...).
This patch already migrated several builtin shaders. Other shaders should be migrated
one at a time, and could be done inside master.
There is a new compile directive `WITH_GPU_SHADER_BUILDER` this is an optional
directive for linting shaders to increase turn around time.
What is remaining:
- pyGPU API {T94975}
- Migration of other shaders. This could be a community effort.

Since {D8234} the image editor is drawn using a depth buffer.
When using `draw_texture_2d` the image is drawn using the 2D_IMAGE
shader. inside the vertex buffer the image was pushed to the background.
This was introduced by {648924333234} what seems to be out dated as we
have done several overhauls in this area. (workbench refactor, overlay
engine refactor, color management pipeline).
This patch removes the pushing of the image to the background.
This make the workbench draw everything in the background routine just like
eevee. This is because the workbench uses floating point buffers too and
rendering background to this buffer makes it incorrect without proper
color management.
This could be improved because in xray the background is not blended but
dithered as it's drawn after the main pass.
