The Metal backend already supports output for the 6 clipping planes via gl_ClipDistances equivalent, however, functionality to toggle clipping plane enablement was missing.

This adds a new mirror image extension type for shaders and
geometry nodes (next to the existing repeat, extend and clip
options).
See D16432 for a more detailed explanation of `wrap_mirror`.
This also adds a new sampler flag `GPU_SAMPLER_MIRROR_REPEAT`.
It acts as a modifier to `GPU_SAMPLER_REPEAT`, so any `REPEAT`
flag must be set for the `MIRROR` flag to have an effect.

Texture usage flags can now be provided during texture creation specifying
the ways in which a texture can be used. This allows the GPU backends to
perform contextual optimizations which were not previously possible. This
includes enablement of hardware lossless compression which can result in
a 15%+ performance uplift for bandwidth-limited scenes on hardware such
as Apple-Silicon using Metal.
GPU_TEXTURE_USAGE_GENERAL can be used by default if usage is not known
ahead of time. Patch will also be relevant for the Vulkan backend.

Fix a number of small memory leaks in the Metal backend. Unreleased blit
shader objects and temporary textures addressed. Static memory manager
modified to defer creation until use. Added reference count tracker to
shared memory manager across contexts, such that cached memory allocations
will be released if all contexts are destroyed and re-initialized.

These implementations remove dependency on the Geometry pass by instead invoking one vertex shader instance for each expected output vertex, matching what a geometry shader would emit. Each vertex shader instance is then responsible for calculating the same output position based on its vertex_id as the logic would in the geometry shader version.
SSBO Vertex fetch enables full random-access into a vertex buffer by binding it as a read-only SSBO. This enables each instance to read neighbouring vertex data to perform contextual calculations as a geometry shader would, for cases where attribute Multiload is not supported.

MTLContext provides functionality for command encoding, binding management and graphics device management. MTLImmediate provides simple draw enablement with dynamically encoded data. These draws utilise temporary scratch buffer memory to provide minimal bandwidth overhead during workload submission.
This patch also contains empty placeholders for MTLBatch and MTLDrawList to enable testing of first pixels on-screen without failure.
The Metal API also requires access to the GHOST_Context to ensure the same pre-initialized Metal GPU device is used by the viewport. Given the explicit nature of Metal, explicit control is also needed over presentation, to ensure correct work scheduling and rendering pipeline state.
