Due to the freeing and re-creation of textures performed when binding
offscreen viewports, VR viewport textures would be needlessly
re-created every drawing iteration, leading to a negative impact on VR
frame rate.
This was brought to light by 6738ecb64e, which introduced an
additional texture clear operation on initialization and was
prohibitively costly on some systems when performed every frame.
Now, the textures for VR viewports will not be always re-created
during offscreen binding, but only when necessary using a pre-drawing
step (`wm_xr_session_surface_offscreen_ensure()`).

Detected on `amdgpu-pro` libGL implementation. The workaround is to not
use explicit location for vertex attributes. This is not a real problem
as we don't rely on them for now.
This was caused by macros interpreted as recursive. Workaround by
not using macros at all and just define local variables which
hopefully will be optimized.
The GLSL defines used to make the uniform names unusable for local variable
is being interpreted as recursive on some implementation.
This avoids it by create a second macro avoiding the recursion.
This opt-in functionnality enabled developper keep track of unused
resources present in the `GPUShaderCreateInfo` descriptors of their
shaders.
The output is pretty noisy at the moment so we do not enforce its usage.
This uses a light parser / string modification pass to convert
C++ enum declaration syntax to GLSL compatible one.
GLSL having no support for enums, we are forced to convert the
enum values to a series of constant uints.
The parser (not really one by the way), being stupidly simple,
will not change anything to the values and thus make some C++
syntax (like omitting the values) not work.
The string replacement happens on all GLSL files on startup.
I did not measure significant changes in blender startup speed.
There is plans to do all of this at compile time.
We limit the scope of the search to `.h` and `.hh` files to prevent
confusing syntax in `.glsl` files.
There is basic error reporting with file, line and char logging
for easy debuggabiliy.
The requirements to use this enum sharing system are already listed in
`gpu_shader_shared_utils.h` and repeated on top of the preprocessor
function.
The VSE and node editor only uses an overlay buffer to draw to the screen. The
GPUViewport assumes that platforms clears all textures during creation, but
they do not on selected platforms. What would lead to drawing from
uncleared memory.
This patch fixes this by clearing all viewport textures during creation.
Also adds a few things to GPUShader for easily create shaders.
Heavy usage of macros to compose the createInfo and avoid
duplications and copy paste bugs.
This makes the link between the shader request functions
(in workbench_shader.cc) and the actual createInfo a bit
obscure since the names are composed and not searchable.

Use more efficient logic for detecting when gizmos are under the cursor.
Even though this isn't a bottleneck, it runs on cursor motion in the
3D viewport, so avoiding any lag here is beneficial.
The common case for cursor motion without any gizmos was always
drawing two passes (one small, then again if nothing was found).
Now a single draw call at the larger size is used.
In isolation this gives around 1.2x-1.4x speedup.
When there are multiple gizmos a depth-buffer picking is used
(similar to object / bone selection) which is more involved but
still only performs 2x draw calls since the result is cached for reuse.
See note in gizmo_find_intersected_3d for a more detailed explanation.
Also restore the depth values in the selection result as they're
needed for gizmos to use selection bias.
Broken since support for GL_SELECT was removed.
When calling GPU_select_cache_begin, checking the selection mode used
the last used selection mode, not the one about to be used.
Using border select, then picking would not use the selection cache.
This wasn't noticeable by users as failing to use cache just completes
the selection without it (drawing the depth buffer unnecessarily).
In order to use a workaround builtin uniform, we need to count it
just like other uniforms and give it some space in the name buffer.
This also fixes extensions being added after the uniform declaration.
All `#extension` directives are now part of the gl backend.
With (center) position, radius and random value outputs.
Eevee does not yet support rendering point clouds, but an untested
implementation of this node was added for when it does.

This makes optionnal the use of a different interface for the geometry
shader stage output. When the vertex and geometry interface instance name
matches, a `_in` and `_out` suffix is added to the end of the instance name.
This makes it easier to have optional geometry shader stages.

Currently there are many function declarations in `BKE_node.h` that
don't actually have implementations in blenkernel. This commit moves
the declarations to `NOD_composite.h`, `NOD_texture.h`, and
`NOD_shader.h` instead. This helps to clarify the purpose of the

Fixes T93680
For current drivers of Intel HD Graphics 4400 and 4600, various Program Introspection functions appear broken and return incorrect values, causing crashes in the current handling of SSBOs. Disable use of this feature on those devices. Add checks to features that use SSBOs (Hair and Subdivision Modifier).

Some drivers/glsl compilers will not warn about multiple resources using
the same binding, creating silent errors.
This patch checks for this case and outputs a descriptive error message if
a particular createInfo merge error is founds.
Other validation can be added later.
This shader needs to use the same interface as the OCIO shader. On Linux
and Windows this seems to be the case. On MacOS however there is a
mismatch that makes the overlay texture to be completely black when
switching to workbench in the Shader workspace.
This is just a temporarily work-around as this should be solved. Due to
the poor GPU debugging facilities on Mac we haven't been able to
pin-point the root cause.
This adds vertex creasing support for OpenSubDiv for modeling, rendering,
Alembic and USD I/O.
For modeling, vertex creasing follows the edge creasing implementation with an
operator accessible through the Vertex menu in Edit Mode, and some parameter in
the properties panel. The option in the Subsurf and Multires to use edge
creasing also affects vertex creasing.
The vertex crease data is stored as a CustomData layer, unlike edge creases
which for now are stored in `MEdge`, but will in the future also be moved to
a `CustomData` layer. See comments for details on the difference in behavior
for the `CD_CREASE` layer between egdes and vertices.
For Cycles this adds sockets on the Mesh node to hold data about which vertices
are creased (one socket for the indices, one for the weigths).
Viewport rendering of vertex creasing reuses the same color scheme as for edges
and creased vertices are drawn bigger than uncreased vertices.
For Alembic and USD, vertex crease support follows the edge crease
implementation, they are always read, but only exported if a `Subsurf` modifier
is present on the Mesh.
