Required by Metal backend for efficient shader compilation. EEVEE material
resource binding permutations now controlled via CreateInfo and selected
based on material options. Other existing CreateInfo's also modified to
ensure explicitness for depth-writing mode. Other missing bindings also
addressed to ensure full compliance with the Metal backend.

This implements the base needed for supporting multiple view concurently
inside the same drawcall.
The view used by common macros and view related functions is indexed using
a global variable `drw_view_id` which can be set arbitrarly or read
from the `drw_ResourceID`.
This is needed for EEVEE-Next shadow but can be used for other purpose
in the future.
Note that a shader specialization is needed for it to work. `DRW_VIEW_LEN`
needs to be defined to the amount of view the shader will access.
The number of views contained in a `draw::View` is set at construction
time.
Note that the maximum number of object correctly drawn by the shaders
using multiple views will be lower than thoses who don't.
This change the attribute binding scheme to something similar to the
curves objects. Attributes are now buffer textures sampled per points.
The actual geometry is now rendered using an index buffer that avoid too
many vertex shader invocation.
Drawcall is wrapped in a DRW function to reduce complexity of future
changes.
This is a new implementation of the draw manager using modern
rendering practices and GPU driven culling.
This only ports features that are not considered deprecated or to be
removed.
The old DRW API is kept working along side this new one, and does not
interfeer with it. However this needed some more hacking inside the
draw_view_lib.glsl. At least the create info are well separated.
The reviewer might start by looking at `draw_pass_test.cc` to see the
API in usage.
Important files are `draw_pass.hh`, `draw_command.hh`,
`draw_command_shared.hh`.
In a nutshell (for a developper used to old DRW API):
- `DRWShadingGroups` are replaced by `Pass<T>::Sub`.
- Contrary to DRWShadingGroups, all commands recorded inside a pass or
sub-pass (even binds / push_constant / uniforms) will be executed in order.
- All memory is managed per object (except for Sub-Pass which are managed
by their parent pass) and not from draw manager pools. So passes "can"
potentially be recorded once and submitted multiple time (but this is
not really encouraged for now). The only implicit link is between resource
lifetime and `ResourceHandles`
- Sub passes can be any level deep.
- IMPORTANT: All state propagate from sub pass to subpass. There is no
state stack concept anymore. Ensure the correct render state is set before
drawing anything using `Pass::state_set()`.
- The drawcalls now needs a `ResourceHandle` instead of an `Object *`.
This is to remove any implicit dependency between `Pass` and `Manager`.
This was a huge problem in old implementation since the manager did not
know what to pull from the object. Now it is explicitly requested by the
engine.
- The pases need to be submitted to a `draw::Manager` instance which can
be retrieved using `DRW_manager_get()` (for now).
Internally:
- All object data are stored in contiguous storage buffers. Removing a lot
of complexity in the pass submission.
- Draw calls are sorted and visibility tested on GPU. Making more modern
culling and better instancing usage possible in the future.
- Unit Tests have been added for regression testing and avoid most API
breakage.
- `draw::View` now contains culling data for all objects in the scene
allowing caching for multiple views.
- Bounding box and sphere final setup is moved to GPU.
- Some global resources locations have been hardcoded to reduce complexity.
What is missing:
- ~~Workaround for lack of gl_BaseInstanceARB.~~ Done
- ~~Object Uniform Attributes.~~ Done (Not in this patch)
- Workaround for hardware supporting a maximum of 8 SSBO.

This function was not used for anything other than mat4. This
was because of a limitation of the DRW module/
This makes it cleaner for the GLSL and also less tempting to use
it for other unconventional purpose.
This library contains the needed functions to render GPencil object
geometry. Centralizing these will make it possible for other draw
engines (EEVEE, Overlay) to reuse the same vertex shader code and
possibly the same fragment rejection methods.
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.

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.
