This constraint can be naturally viewed as a prototype for a future
4x4 matrix math node (or subset thereof), since its basic semantics
already is matrix assignment. Thus it makes sense to add math options
to this constraint to increase flexibility in the meantime.
This patch adds support for several operations that would be useful:
- An option to remove shear in the incoming target matrix.
Shear is known to cause issues for various mathematical operations,
so an option to remove it at key points is useful.
Constraints based on Euler like Copy Rotation and Limit Rotation
already have always enabled shear removal built in, because their
math doesn't work correctly with shear.
In the future node system shear removal would be a separate node
(and currently Limit Rotation can be used as a Remove Shear constraint).
However removing shear from the result of the target space conversion
before mixing (similar to Copy Rotation) has to be built into
Copy Transforms itself as an option.
- More ways to combine the target and owner matrices.
Similar to multiple Inherit Scale modes for parenting, there are
multiple ways one may want to combine matrices based on context.
This implements 3 variants for each of the Before/After modes
(one of them already existing).
- Full implements regular matrix multiplication as the most basic
option. The downside is the risk of creating shear.
- Aligned emulates the 'anti-shear' Aligned Inherit Scale mode,
and basically uses Full for location, and Split for rotation/scale.
(This choice already existed.)
- Split Channels combines location, rotation and scale separately.
Looking at D7547 there is demand for Split Channels in some cases,
so I think it makes sense to include it in Copy Transforms too, so that
the Mix menu items can be identical for it and the Action constraint.

Currently B-Bone scaling can only be controlled via their
properties, thus requiring up to 8 drivers per joint between
B-Bones to transfer scaling factors from the handle bone.
A Scale Easing option is added to multiply the easing value
by the Y scale channels to synchronize them - this produces a
natural scaling effect where both the shape of the curve and
the scale is affected.
In addition, four toggles are added for each handle, which
multiply each of the X, Y, Z and Ease values by the matching
Local Scale channel of the handle bone, thus replacing trivial
drivers. The Scale Easing option has no effect on this process
since it's easy to just enable both Length and Ease buttons.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D9870
In addition to the base bone transformation itself, B-Bones have
controls that affect transformation of its segments. For rotation
the features are quite complete, allowing to both reorient the
Bezier handles via properties, and to control them using custom
handle bones. However for scaling there are two deficiencies.
First, there are only X and Y scale factors (actually X and Z),
while lengthwise all segments have the same scaling. The ease
option merely affects the shape of the curve, and does not cause
actual scaling.
Second, scaling can only be controlled via properties, thus
requiring up to 6 drivers per joint between B-Bones to transfer
scaling factors from the handle bone. This is very inefficient.
Finally, the Z channels are confusingly called Y.
This commit adds a B-Bone Y Scale channel and extra B-Bone flag
fields to DNA with appropriate versioning (including for F-Curves
and drivers) in preparation to addressing these limitations.
Functionality is not changed, so the new fields are not used
until the following commits.

This node creates splines with more control points in between the
existing control points. The point is to give the splines more
definition for further tweaking like randomization with white noise,
instead of deforming a resampled poly spline with a noise texture.
For poly splines and NURBS, the node simply interpolates new values
between the existing control points. However, for Bezier splines,
the result follows the existing evaluated shape of the curve, changing
the handle positions and handle types to make that possible.
The number of "cuts" can be controlled by an integer input, or an
attribute can be used. Both spline and point domain attributes are
supported, so the number of cuts can vary using the value from the
point at the start of each segment.
Dynamic curve attributes are interpolated to the result with linear
interpolation.

This node implements the second option of T87429, creating points
along the input splines with the necessary evaluated information
for instancing: `tangent`, `normal`, and `rotation` attributes.
All generic curve point and spline attributes are copied to the
result points as well.
The "Count" and "Length" methods are just like the current options
in the resample node, but the output is points instead of a curve.
The "Evaluated" method uses the points you see on the curve directly,
and therefore should be the fastest.
The rotation data is retrieved from a transform matrix built with the
same method that the curve to mesh node uses. The radius attribute is
divided by 10 so the points don't look absurdly huge in the viewport.
In the future that could be an option.
For the implementation, one thing that could use an improvement
is the amount of temporary allocations while resampling to evaluated
points before the final points. I expect that reusing a buffer for
each thread would give a nice improvement.

- The effect is not intended to be configurable per viewport, it should
