The number of node groups was including the fake user count.
I was ignoring the Fake User, and how it affects the id->us count.
This problem was present since the initial commit: 84825e4ed2.
Adds the possibility of having a little number on top of icons.
At the moment this is used for:
* Outliner
* Node Editor bread-crumb
* Node Group node header
For the outliner there is almost no functional change. It is mostly a refactor
to handle the indicators as part of the icon shader instead of the outliner
draw code. (note that this was already recently changed in a5d3b648e3).
The difference is that now we use rounded border rectangle instead of
circles, and we can go up to 999 elements.
So for the outliner this shows the number of collapsed elements of a
certain type (e.g., mesh objects inside a collapsed collection).
For the node editors is being used to show the use count for the data-block.
This is important for the node editor, so users know whether the node-group
they are editing (or are about to edit) is used elsewhere. This is
particularly important when the Node Options are hidden, which is the
default for node groups appended from the asset libraries.

This operator (Alt + D) allows users to explicitly create a linked copy
of a group node (same current behaviour for the Duplicate operator).
The duplicate operator (Shift + D) now takes the new User Preference
duplicate data option for Node Tree into account. It is by default
disabled, leading to no functional change for users.
Although we could make in the future make this option "on" by default,
to make it consistent with the rest of Blender we do not at the time.

This adds support for showing geometry passed to the Viewer in the 3d
viewport (instead of just in the spreadsheet). The "viewer geometry"
bypasses the group output. So it is not necessary to change the final
output of the node group to be able to see the intermediate geometry.
**Activation and deactivation of a viewer node**
* A viewer node is activated by clicking on it.
* Ctrl+shift+click on any node/socket connects it to the viewer and
makes it active.
* Ctrl+shift+click in empty space deactivates the active viewer.
* When the active viewer is not visible anymore (e.g. another object
is selected, or the current node group is exit), it is deactivated.
* Clicking on the icon in the header of the Viewer node toggles whether
its active or not.
**Pinning**
* The spreadsheet still allows pinning the active viewer as before.
When pinned, the spreadsheet still references the viewer node even
when it becomes inactive.
* The viewport does not support pinning at the moment. It always shows
the active viewer.
**Attribute**
* When a field is linked to the second input of the viewer node it is
displayed as an overlay in the viewport.
* When possible the correct domain for the attribute is determined
automatically. This does not work in all cases. It falls back to the
face corner domain on meshes and the point domain on curves. When
necessary, the domain can be picked manually.
* The spreadsheet now only shows the "Viewer" column for the domain
that is selected in the Viewer node.
* Instance attributes are visualized as a constant color per instance.
**Viewport Options**
* The attribute overlay opacity can be controlled with the "Viewer Node"
setting in the overlays popover.
* A viewport can be configured not to show intermediate viewer-geometry
by disabling the "Viewer Node" option in the "View" menu.
**Implementation Details**
* The "spreadsheet context path" was generalized to a "viewer path" that
is used in more places now.
* The viewer node itself determines the attribute domain, evaluates the
field and stores the result in a `.viewer` attribute.
* A new "viewer attribute' overlay displays the data from the `.viewer`
attribute.
* The ground truth for the active viewer node is stored in the workspace
now. Node editors, spreadsheets and viewports retrieve the active
viewer from there unless they are pinned.
* The depsgraph object iterator has a new "viewer path" setting. When set,
the viewed geometry of the corresponding object is part of the iterator
instead of the final evaluated geometry.
* To support the instance attribute overlay `DupliObject` was extended
to contain the information necessary for drawing the overlay.
* The ctrl+shift+click operator has been refactored so that it can make
existing links to viewers active again.
* The auto-domain-detection in the Viewer node works by checking the
"preferred domain" for every field input. If there is not exactly one
preferred domain, the fallback is used.
Known limitations:
* Loose edges of meshes don't have the attribute overlay. This could be
added separately if necessary.
* Some attributes are hard to visualize as a color directly. For example,
the values might have to be normalized or some should be drawn as arrays.
For now, we encourage users to build node groups that generate appropriate
viewer-geometry. We might include some of that functionality in future versions.
Support for displaying attribute values as text in the viewport is planned as well.
* There seems to be an issue with the attribute overlay for pointclouds on
nvidia gpus, to be investigated.

Luckily adding them is quite simple. However, if the node group is also
an asset, it will show up duplicated in the list. To resolve this we
avoid adding node groups to the list if they have already been
added as assets.

Similar to e5a7470638, the tree currently being edited should be
used for polling and other tests, rather than the node tree at the root
of the node editor's path.
Code from {rBb0cb0a785475} assumed a texture node `node->id` would
always be an image.
That is not true though:
- could be an object (as reported here with the Point Density node)
- could be a textblock (as in the IES Texture node)
Acting on these would crash when doing `BKE_image_signal` on them.
Now check node id is an image and do nothing otherwise.
Also check if an image is actually set in these nodes (if none is, the
Image Editor is now also untouched, previously the image in the Image
Editor was "cleared" here [set to NULL] -- which does not seems very
beneficial)

Currently node group assets are supported, but using them by dragging
from the asset browser is cumbersome. This patch adds all node group
assets from user asset libraries and the current file libraries to the
add node search menu and the link drag search menu.
Node groups added through the search will have their "options" hidden,
meaning the data-block selector is displayed. This helps keep the UI
clean, and the selector shouldn't be necessary anyway.
To make that possible, metadata like the node tree type and its inputs
and outputs has to be saved in the file. This requires re-saving the
files that contain the assets with the patch applied.
The node add search operator is moved from Python to C++ to ease
development and allow more flexibility. It supports a tooltip that
gives the description of assets.
Currently the node groups are added with the asset system's existing
"Append & Reuse" behavior. It's likely that linking should be possible
in the future too, but for now the idea is to use the more foolproof
option that doesn't create dependencies between files.
Because loading assets can potentially take a long time, the search
menu refreshes its items as new assets are loaded. However, changing
the search field is necessary to see the update.

This reduces logging overhead. The performance difference is only
significant when there are many fast nodes. In my test file with many
math nodes, the performance improved from 720ms to 630ms.
The memory leak happens because `ED_node_link_insert` (called after the
transform operation) overwrites the pre-existing `snode->runtime->iofsd`,
losing the reference without freeing the memory.
So to "move" the reference from `snode->runtime->iofsd` to
`op->customdata`, so that each operator works with its own data.

This refactors the geometry nodes evaluation system. No changes for the
user are expected. At a high level the goals are:
* Support using geometry nodes outside of the geometry nodes modifier.
* Support using the evaluator infrastructure for other purposes like field evaluation.
* Support more nodes, especially when many of them are disabled behind switch nodes.
* Support doing preprocessing on node groups.
For more details see T98492.
There are fairly detailed comments in the code, but here is a high level overview
for how it works now:
* There is a new "lazy-function" system. It is similar in spirit to the multi-function
system but with different goals. Instead of optimizing throughput for highly
parallelizable work, this system is designed to compute only the data that is actually
necessary. What data is necessary can be determined dynamically during evaluation.
Many lazy-functions can be composed in a graph to form a new lazy-function, which can
again be used in a graph etc.
* Each geometry node group is converted into a lazy-function graph prior to evaluation.
To evaluate geometry nodes, one then just has to evaluate that graph. Node groups are
no longer inlined into their parents.
Next steps for the evaluation system is to reduce the use of threads in some situations
to avoid overhead. Many small node groups don't benefit from multi-threading at all.
This is much easier to do now because not everything has to be inlined in one huge
node tree anymore.

The node tree used to detect if the tree was a node group wasn't the
last in the node editor's path like it should be, so the search thought
that all shader node groups weren't node groups.
It's easier to keep track of state in these algorithms if it's stored in
a central place like a set. Plus, using flags requires clearing them
beforehand. For the selected linked operators, using the topology
cache means we don't have to iterate over all links.
Before 58c650a44c, the nodes span was rebuilt on every redraw. Now
that it's only rebuilt as necessary, we need to tag it dirty when nodes
are reordered. Relying on the order of the nodes at all isn't ideal, but
it's fairly fundamental in many areas at the moment.
The only real difference between `GPU_SHADER_2D_UNIFORM_COLOR` and
`GPU_SHADER_3D_UNIFORM_COLOR` is that in the vertex shader the 2D
version uses `vec4(pos, 0.0, 1.0)` and the 3D version uses
`vec4(pos, 1.0)`.
But VBOs with 2D attributes work perfectly in shaders that use 3D
attributes. Components not specified are filled with components from
`vec4(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0)`.
So there is no real benefit to having two different shader versions.
This will simplify porting shaders to python as it will not be
necessary to use a 3D and a 2D version of the shaders.
In python the new name for '2D_UNIFORM_COLOR'' and '3D_UNIFORM_COLOR'
is 'UNIFORM_COLOR', but the old names still work for backward
compatibility.

The multi-socket input sorting was used for two purposes: moving links
to the proper positions when dragging a new link, and resetting the
multi-input indices on the links when removing a link. They are now
separated into two functions, and the sorting when making a group
node that didn't accomplish anything is removed (in that case a
proper implementation would copy the indices from the original
exterior sockets).
