The main goal of this refactor is to not store Object/Collection
pointers for every individual instance. Instead instances now
store a handle for the referenced data. The actual Object/Collection
pointers are stored in a new `InstanceReference` class.
This refactor also allows for some better optimizations further down
the line, because one does not have to search through all instances
anymore to find what data is instanced.
Furthermore, this refactor makes it easier to support instancing
`GeometrySet` or any other data that has to be owned by the
`InstancesComponent`.

This patch adds initial curve support to geometry nodes. Currently
there is only one node available, the "Curve to Mesh" node, T87428.
However, the aim of the changes here is larger than just supporting
curve data in nodes-- it also uses the opportunity to add better spline
data structures, intended to replace the existing curve evaluation code.
The curve code in Blender is quite old, and it's generally regarded as
some of the messiest, hardest-to-understand code as well. The classes
in `BKE_spline.hh` aim to be faster, more extensible, and much more
easily understandable. Further explanation can be found in comments in
that file.
Initial builtin spline attributes are supported-- reading and writing
from the `cyclic` and `resolution` attributes works with any of the
attribute nodes. Also, only Z-up normal calculation is implemented
at the moment, and tilts do not apply yet.
**Limitations**
- For now, you must bring curves into the node tree with an "Object
Info" node. Changes to the curve modifier stack will come later.
- Converting to a mesh is necessary to visualize the curve data.
Further progress can be tracked in: T87245

There was a function to set 2 pixels wide for inverse filling, but this must not be done in the borders of the image.
Now, the borders are checked before set 2 pixels.
Using scene frame 1 is not reliable in cases when there is a
frame offset is involved. Using frame 1 seems more reliable,
although might still fail under certain circumstances.
More reliable fix would require a deeper change in the data
structure and the logic about frame loading and size detection.
The issue was caused by frame start/offset change triggering clip
reload, which was happening with a hardcoded scene frame index of 1,
which could be outside of the actual clip frames.
Solved by removing source change tag from the frame start/offset
update. The source doesn't really change: the resolution will stay
the same, as well as media type, its duration. So the tag was not
needed.
Workaround for crash when accessing FaceMaps / PaintMask data in
editmode, just disallow access in editmode as is done with UVs.
Same fix as in {rB3e2619b3e72a}.

Initial report was mentioning the Classroom demo scene, but this is
probably because the scene was pre-configured to be used with OpenCL.
Would expect any OpenCL compositing to be failing prior to this fix.
The reason why crash was happening is due to OpenCL queue being
released from OpenCLDevice destructor. Is not that obvious, but
when Vector (including std::vector) is holding elements by value
a destructor will be called on "old" memory when vector capacitance
changes.
Solved by making forbidding copy semantic for compositor devices and
forcing move semantic to be used.
Also use emplace semantic in the devices vector initialization.
This commit significantly speeds up many of the attribute nodes when
multiple threads are available in linear situations when parallelism
cannot be achieved elsewhere.
See the differential for a table of timing comparisons tested on a
Ryzen 3700x. For an attribute with 4 million elements, the nodes were
about 3 to 9 times faster.
The changes are not exhaustive, other nodes could still be parallelized
in the future. Also, it would be possible to further optimize the grain
size in `parallel_for`, but I'd rather make sure it isn't too small.
I tested some different values, but also relied on intuition--
increasing grain size for less complex operations and vice versa.

Currently overriding properties within material node trees is not
supported. However there is a workaround that allows feeding values
through drivers via an intermediate custom property, as described
in T82404. The workaround relies on the behavior of the ID copying
code that always patches datablock self-references even without any
overrides.
Unfortunately, this broke during development of 2.93. This happened
because a call RNA_struct_override_matches added in rB2281db72b0157
detects that no override exists, and 'restores' the self-reference
to point to the original datablock.
To avoid this, mark the Material.node_tree property with the
PROPOVERRIDE_IGNORE flag to stop RNA_struct_override_matches
from recursing into the currently unsupported node tree sub-block.
This flag should be removed when this is properly supported.
This was confirmed to fix the workaround and discussed with @mont29.
There was a quadratic algorithm extracting triangles from a coplanar
cluster. This is now linear.
Also found and fixed a bug in the same area related to the triangulator
added recently: it didn't get the right correspondence between new
edges and original edges.
Previously the option in the camera's //Object Data Properties > Viewport Display
> Sensor// would not display the sensor in camera view. This seemed to be caused
by the theme color `TH_VIEW_OVERLAY` having zero set for the alpha channel and
alpha blending being active, resulting in no visible output. Hence
`immUniformThemeColorShade(TH_VIEW_OVERLAY, 100);` is replaced with
`immUniformThemeColorShadeAlpha(TH_VIEW_OVERLAY, 100, 255);`.

Object orientation for thumbnail creation changed to be slightly
oblique (tilted to one side and from above) to better show shape,
especially when axis-aligned. Camera lens changed to 85 to avoid
distortion of close objects like human heads.

Multi-overrides of a same linked ID in a same override hierarchy are
currently not supported and can cause all kind of issues.
In some cases they could lead to infinite loop trying to resync the same
ID over and over, this is now prevented.
Found in some Blender studio production files.
While it was technically safe to call Map.remove while iterating over
a map, it wasn't really designed to work. Also it wasn't very efficient,
because to remove the element, the map would have to search it
again. Now it is possible to remove an element given an iterator
into the map. It is safe to remove the element while iterating over
the map. Obviously, the removed element must not be accessed
anymore after it has been removed.
