This patch allows the user to type a property name into the
Attribute node, which will then output the value of the property
for each individual object, allowing to e.g. customize shaders
by object without duplicating the shader.
In order to make supporting this easier for Eevee, it is necessary
to explicitly choose whether the attribute is varying or uniform
via a dropdown option of the Attribute node. The dropdown also
allows choosing whether instancing should be taken into account.
The Cycles design treats all attributes as one common namespace,
so the Blender interface converts the enum to a name prefix that
can't be entered using keyboard.
In Eevee, the attributes are provided to the shader via a UBO indexed
with resource_id, similar to the existing Object Info data. Unlike it,
however, it is necessary to maintain a separate buffer for every
requested combination of attributes.
This is done using a hash table with the attribute set as the key,
as it is expected that technically different but similar materials
may use the same set of attributes. In addition, in order to minimize
wasted memory, a sparse UBO pool is implemented, so that chunks that
don't contain any data don't have to be allocated.
The back-end Cycles code is already refactored and committed by Brecht.

This wraps the functionality used to speedup EEVEE volumetrics.
This touches the rendering code of EEVEE as it should fix a mis-usage of
the GL barrier. The barrier changed type and location, removing an
unused barrier.
This is related to the Vulkan port T68990.
This is a full cleanup of the Framebuffer module and a separation
of OpenGL related functions.
There is some changes with how the default framebuffers are handled.
Now the default framebuffers are individually wrapped inside special
GLFrameBuffers. This make it easier to keep track of the currently bound
framebuffer state and have some specificity for operations on these
framebuffers.
Another change is dropping the optimisation of only configuring the
changed attachements during framebuffers update. This does not give
any benefits and add some complexity to the code. This might be brought
back if it has a performance impact on some systems.
This also adds support for naming framebuffers but it is currently not
used.
In recent refactoring {a9f2ebb21508} an issue was introduced that the
opengl rasterizer would be disabled when only writing to a stencil
buffer.
This fix adds stencil writing to the write mask and set it. This makes
the write map not evaluate to GPU_WRITE_NONE and the rasterizer will be
enabled in `GLStateManager::set_write_mask`.

This follows the GPU module naming of other buffers.
We pass name to distinguish each GPUUniformBuf in debug mode.
Also remove DRW_uniform_buffer interface.
This addresses warnings from Clang-Tidy's `readability-else-after-return`
rule in the `source/blender/draw` module. Not all warnings are addressed
in this commit.
No functional changes.
This cleanup use the recent changes in shader interface to allow querying
the binding location a texture should use.
This should aleviate all issue we have with texture state change recompiling
the shaders at drawtime.
All binds are now treated like persistent binds and will stick until a new
shading group bind a different shader. The only difference is that you can
still change it with a new subgroup or same shader shgroup.
Since unbinding can be heavy we only do it when using `--debug-gpu`.
These are the modifications:
-With DRW modification we reduce the number of passes we need to populate.
-Rename passes for consistent naming.
-Reduce complexity in code compilation
-Cleanup how renderpass accumulation passes are setup, using pass instances.
-Make sculpt mode compatible with shadows
-Make hair passes compatible with SSS
-Error shader and lookdev materials now use standalone materials.
-Support default shader (world and material) using a default nodetree internally.
-Change BLEND_CLIP to be emulated by gpu nodetree. Making less shader variations.
-Use BLI_memblock for cache memory allocation.
-Renderpasses are handled by switching a UBO ref bind.
One major hack in this patch is the use of modified pointer as ghash keys.
This rely on the assumption that the keys will never overlap because the
number of options per key will never be bigger than the pointed struct.
The use of one single nodetree to support default material is also a bit hacky
since it won't support concurent usage of this nodetree.
(see EEVEE_shader_default_surface_nodetree)
Another change is that objects with shader errors now appear solid magenta instead
of shaded magenta. This is only because of code reuse purpose but could be changed
if really needed.

While it might be handy to have type-less functionality which is
similar to how C++ math is implemented it can not be easily achieved
with just preprocessor in a way which does not have side-effects on
wrong usage.
There macros where often used on a non-trivial expression, and there
was at least one usage where it was causing an actual side effect/bug
on Windows (see change around square_f(sh[index++]) in studiolight.c).
For such cases it is handy to have a function which is guaranteed to
have zero side-effects. The motivation behind actually removing the
macros is that there is already a way to do similar calculation. Also,
not having such macros is a way to guarantee that its usage is not
changed in a way which have side-effects and that it's not used as an
inspiration for cases where it should not be used.

We detect the case where we need to invert the facing directly inside the
DRWView update and do the appropriate GL calls at draw time.
Fix T63047 Camera with negative scale works only in Cycles Rendered view
Fix T71352 Negative scale camera causes BLI_assert
This is because even if the glStencilMask is 0x00 the GL_DECR_WRAP and
GL_INCR_WRAP states still works and will modify the stencil.
Fix T73046 Overlapping parts of wireframes don't render at all in workench
with shadows turned on.
This is the unification of all overlays into one overlay engine as described in T65347.
I went over all the code making it more future proof with less hacks and removing old / not relevent parts.
Goals / Acheivements:
- Remove internal shader usage (only drw shaders)
- Remove viewportSize and viewportSizeInv and put them in gloabl ubo
- Fixed some drawing issues: Missing probe option and Missing Alt+B clipping of some shader
- Remove old (legacy) shaders dependancy (not using view UBO).
- Less shader variation (less compilation time at first load and less patching needed for vulkan)
- removed some geom shaders when I could
- Remove static e_data (except shaders storage where it is OK)
- Clear the way to fix some anoying limitations (dithered transparency, background image compositing etc...)
- Wireframe drawing now uses the same batching capabilities as workbench & eevee (indirect drawing).
- Reduced complexity, removed ~3000 Lines of code in draw (also removed a lot of unused shader in GPU).
- Post AA to avoid complexity and cost of MSAA.
Remaining issues:
- ~~Armature edits, overlay toggles, (... others?) are not refreshing viewport after AA is complete~~
- FXAA is not the best for wires, maybe investigate SMAA
- Maybe do something more temporally stable for AA.
- ~~Paint overlays are not working with AA.~~
- ~~infront objects are difficult to select.~~
- ~~the infront wires sometimes goes through they solid counterpart (missing clear maybe?) (toggle overlays on-off when using infront+wireframe overlay in solid shading)~~
Note: I made some decision to change slightly the appearance of some objects to simplify their drawing. Namely the empty arrows end (which is now hollow/wire) and distance points of the cameras/spots being done by lines.

Adds a check when starting blender if your platform is supported. We use a blacklist
as drivers are updated more regular then blender (stable releases).
The mechanism detects if the support level changed or has been validated by the user previously.
Changes can happen due to users updating their drivers, but also when we change the support
level in our code base.
When the user has seen the limited support level message it is saved in the user config.
It would be better to have a system specific config section, but currently not clear
what could benefit from that.
When the platform is unsupported or has limited support a dialog box will appear including a link
to our user manual describing what to do.
**Windows**
Windows uses the MessageBox that is provided by the windows kernel.
**X11**
We use a very lowlevel messagebox for X11. It is very limited in use and can be fine tuned when needed.
**SDL/APPLE**
There is no implementation for SDL or APPLE at this moment as the platform support feature targets mostly Windows users.

Was caused by some drawcall not being done if the volumetric resolve pass
was drawn (using dual source blending seems to be the cause).
Not sure why this is needed since it is still reset before the next
drawcall.
