Mostly refactored into buffer utility methods for reuse in other
operations.
No functional changes.

These variables and methods should make it easier to loop through buffers elements/pixels. They take into account single element buffers.
Single element buffers can be used for set operations to reduce memory usage.

SocketReader was added as an easier to understand interface on top of
the NodeOperation. It was implemented as a base class of the
NodeOperation and adds an additional hierarchy level.
Ths change replaces the abstract class with a typedef. In the end we
want to remove the typedef but will wait for some new nodes before doing
so.
This replaces header include guards with `#pragma once`.
A couple of include guards are not removed yet (e.g. `__RNA_TYPES_H__`),
because they are used in other places.
This patch has been generated by P1561 followed by `make format`.

Surrounding includes with an 'extern "C"' block is not necessary anymore.
Also that made it harder to add any C++ code to some headers, or include headers
that have "optional" C++ code like `MEM_guardedalloc.h`.
I tested compilation on linux and windows (and got help from @LazyDodo).
If this still breaks compilation due to some linker error, the header containing
the symbol in question is probably missing an 'extern "C"' block.

Basically filtering was happening twice, first time by applying weights of EWA
filter itself and then by applying subpixel offset while reading pixel values.
This was a regression caused by attempts to fix T42844 and there were
some red-herrings which lead me to the wrong way to fix it. It's some
deeper issue than just interpolation offset, it's mainly how the node
resolution is being mapped to each other.
It could be actually a part of canvas awareness project..
Different interpolation methods in compositor could lead to 0.5 pixel offset in
final renders. This is because of some inconsistency in integer coordinates
which might mean pixel corner or pixel center.
Should be all fine now.
The compostor used a fixed size of 4 floats to hold pixel data. this
patch will select size of a pixel based on its type.
It uses 1 float for Value, 3 float for vector and 4 floats for color
data types.
When benchmarking on shots (opening shot of caminandes) we get a
reduction of memory of 30% and a tiny speedup as less data
transformations needs to take place (but these are negligable.

Thanks for Sergey for his indept review.
Many parts of the compositor are unnecessarily complicated. This patch
aims at reducing the complexity of writing nodes and making the code
more transparent.
== Separating Nodes and Operations ==
Currently these are both mixed in the same graph, even though they have
very different purposes and are used at distinct stages in the
compositing process. The patch introduces dedicated graph classes for
nodes and for operations.
This removes the need for a lot of special case checks (isOperation etc.)
and explicit type casts. It simplifies the code since it becomes clear
at every stage what type of node we are dealing with. The compiler can
use static typing to avoid common bugs from mixing up these types and
fewer runtime sanity checks are needed.
== Simplified Node Conversion ==
Converting nodes to operations was previously based on "relinking", i.e.
nodes would start with by mirroring links in the Blender DNA node trees,
then add operations and redirect these links to them. This was very hard
to follow in many cases and required a lot of attention to avoid invalid
states.
Now there is a helper class called the NodeConverter, which is passed to
nodes and implements a much simpler API for this process. Nodes can add
operations and explicit connections as before, but defining "external"
links to the inputs/outputs of the original node now uses mapping
instead of directly modifying link data. Input data (node graph) and
result (operations graph) are cleanly separated.
== Removed Redundant Data Structures ==
A few redundant data structures have been removed, notably the
SocketConnection. These are only needed temporarily during graph
construction. For executing the compositor operations it is perfectly
sufficient to store only the direct input link pointers. A common
pointer indirection is avoided this way (which might also give a little
performance improvement).
== Avoid virtual recursive functions ==
Recursive virtual functions are evil. They are very hard to follow
during debugging. At least in the parts this patch is concerned with
these functions have been replaced by a non-virtual recursive core
function (which might then call virtual non-recursive functions if
needed). See for example NodeOperationBuilder::group_operations.
EWA sampling is designed for downsampling images, i.e. scaling down the size of
input image pixels, which happens regularly in compositing. While the standard
sampling methods (linear, cubic) work reasonably well for linear
transformations, they don't yield good results in non-linear cases like
perspective projection or arbitrary displacement. EWA sampling is comparable to
mipmapping, but avoids problems with discontinuities.
To work correctly the EWA algorithm needs partial derivatives of the mapping
functions which convert output pixel coordinates back into the input image
space (2x2 Jacobian matrix). With these derivatives the EWA algorithm
projects ellipses into the input space and accumulates colors over their
area. This calculation was not done correctly in the compositor, only the
derivatives du/dx and dv/dy were calculation, basically this means it only
worked for non-rotated input images.
The patch introduces full derivative calculations du/dx, du/dy, dv/dx, dv/dy for
the 3 nodes which use EWA sampling currently: PlaneTrackWarp, MapUV and
Displace. In addition the calculation of ellipsis area and axis-aligned
bounding boxes has been fixed.
For the MapUV and Displace nodes the derivatives have to be estimated by
evaluating the UV/displacement inputs with 1-pixel offsets, which can still have
problems on discontinuities and sub-pixel variations. These potential problems
can only be alleviated by more radical design changes in the compositor
functions, which are out of scope for now. Basically the values passed to the
UV/Displacement inputs would need to be associated with their 1st order
derivatives, which requires a general approach to derivatives in all nodes.
