Render stored a shallow copy of the scene view layers and views for thread
safety, without proper functions to free it. But with the CoW depsgraph this
scene is already a copy of the original and an additional copy is not needed.
Refactor to use the scene view layers and some other settings directly instead
of making a copy.
In T93382, the problem was that the Blender-side rendering code was
still generating the subsurface passes because the old render pass
flags were set, even though Cycles doesn't generate them anymore.
After a closer look, it turns out that the entire hardcoded pass
creation code can be removed. We already have an Engine API function
to query the list of render passes from the engine, so we might as
well just call that and create the returned passes.
Turns out that Eevee already did this anyways. On the Cycles side, it
allows to deduplicate a lot of `BlenderSync::sync_render_passes`.
Before, passes were defined in engine.py and in sync.cpp. Now, all
passes that engine.py returns are created automatically, so sync.cpp
only needs to handle a few special cases.
I'm not really concerned about affecting external renderer addons,
since they already needed to handle the old "builtin passes" in
their Engine API implementation anyways to make them show up in the
compositor. So, unless they missed that for like 10 releases, they
should not notice any difference.

This is the conventional way of dealing with unused arguments in C++,
since it works on all compilers.
Regex find and replace: `UNUSED\((\w+)\)` -> `/*$1*/`
This is required by the Metal backend to perform flushing of temporary objective-C resources. This is implemented as a global autoreleasepool, and is to ensure consistency such that all rendering operations, whether called via events, or via main loop will be within an autoreleasepool.

Leading to excessive memory usage compared to Blender 2.93. There's still
some avoidable memory usage remaining, due to the full float buffer in the
new image editor drawing and not loading the cached EXR from disk in tiles.
Main difficulty was handling multi-image baking and disk caches, which is
solved by associating a unique layer name with each image so it can be
matched when reading back the image from the disk.
Also some minor header changes to be able to use RE_MAXNAME in RE_bake.h.
