Editmode should display the original (non-evaluated) points unless there
is something like an "On Cage" option of a modifier [which none of the
curves modifiers have].
This was not the case since the introduction in rBe15320568a29.
So we now draw the editpoints from the original curves. This also means
that original and evaluated curves might not have the same number of
points, so we have to get independent of `proc_point_buf` since that
would possibly create vertexbuffers of different sizes (compared to the
original curves) which is not allowed for a single batch.
- remove the "pos" alias from the vertex buffer format of proc_point_buf
- instead, create a new "edit_points_pos" vertex buffer
- fill that with the original (un-evaluated) curves positions
- dont request `proc_point_buf` anymore
- rename the editpoints flags buffer to be more consistent
And since original and evaluated points might also be in completely
different positions, we also need to draw connecting lines between those
editpoints to not have them float in thin air. For drawing these in
editmode, a simple polyline was chosen (instead of drawing lines in a
resolution that is take from the old particle system -- which is not
depending on points even but has a hardcoded resolution that can only be
upped by the hair_subdiv scene render setting)
- create appropriate batch and indexbuffer for this
- positions vertex buffer can be reused
- reuse particle edit shader (instead of curve edi shader) to get
segment highlighting

NOTE: this also removes the broken depth handling and instead makes it
work (also XRay is properly taken into account) by binding the correct
overlay framebuffer.
NOTE: to further clarify the distinction between curves drawing (that is
based on the old partice system drawing) and drawing in editmode, the
corresponding vertexbuffers have been moved out of CurvesEvalCache into
CurvesBatchCache directly.
NOTE: drawing the lines in editmode could be improved (taking the "real"
resolution of splines into account, but since this should happen on the
GPU in a compute shader, this is for later)

Points cannot be selected atm in editmode, this patch just shows the
selection from sculptmode in editmode.
Since the selection in sculptmode is a float, a point is considered
selected as soon as the float selection is above 0.0f.
Implementation: this piggy-back on the existing drawing via
overlay_edit_curve_point.glsl which requires a "data" VBO which holds
flags for selection (next to others such as "active" - which we also
have to take care of later).

This adds support to render Curves attributes in EEVEE.
Each attribute is stored in a texture derived from a VBO. As the
shading group needs the textures to be valid upon creation, the
attributes are created and setup during its very creation, instead
of doing it lazily via create_requested which we cannot rely on
anyway as contrary to the mesh batch, we do cannot really tell if
attributes need to be updated or else via some `DRW_batch_requested`.
Since point attributes need refinement, and since attributes are all
cast to vec4/float4 to account for differences in type conversions
between Blender and OpenGL, the refinement shader for points is
used as is. The point attributes are stored for each subdivision level
in CurvesEvalFinalCache. Each subdivision level also keeps track of the
attributes already in use so they are properly updated when needed.
Some basic garbage collection was added similar to what is done
for meshes: if the attributes used over time have been different
from the currently used attributes for too long, then the buffers
are freed, ensuring that stale attributesare removed.
This adds `CurvesInfos` to the shader creation info, which stores
the scope in which the attributes are defined. Scopes are stored
as booleans, in an array indexed by attribute loading order which
is also the order in which the attributes were added to the material.
A mapping is necessary between the indices used for the scoping, and
the ones used in the Curves cache, as this may contain stale
attributes which have not been garbage collected yet.
Common utilities with the mesh code for handling requested
attributes were moved to a separate file.

Extends the changes started in f31c3f8114 to completely separate
much of the DRW curves code from the particle hair drawing. In the short
term this increases duplication, but the idea is to simplify development
by making it easier to do larger changes to the new code, and the new
system will replace the particle hair at some point.
After this, only the shaders themselves are shared.
