This adds a vulkan backend to GHOST. The code was extracted from the
tmp-vulkan branch. The main difference with the original code is that
GHOST isn't responsible for fallback. For Metal backend there is already
an idea that the GPU module is responsible for the fallback, not the system.
For Blender we target Vulkan 1.2 at the time of this patch.
MoltenVK (needed to convert Vulkan calls to Metal) has been added as
a separate package.
This patch isn't useful for end-users, currently when starting blender with
`--gpu-backend vulkan` it would crash as the `VBBackend` doesn't initialize
the expected global structs in the GPU module.
Validated to be working on Windows and Apple. Linux still needs to be tested.

Regression introduced by {rB601995c3b86986cf8f8e5b6e5a65bcfa7f8f2e32}.
Noticed by Heist project as they render final frames with workarounds enabled.
The mentioned patch introduces attaching VBO as textures. This used to be
done by the caller. The mechanism used a different order hence the VBO
could still be unbound when using. This cannot be solved inside the new
mechanism clearly so this patch will just bind when the buffer isn't bound
just before the drawing command is sent to the GPU driver.

This implements the base needed for supporting multiple view concurently
inside the same drawcall.
The view used by common macros and view related functions is indexed using
a global variable `drw_view_id` which can be set arbitrarly or read
from the `drw_ResourceID`.
This is needed for EEVEE-Next shadow but can be used for other purpose
in the future.
Note that a shader specialization is needed for it to work. `DRW_VIEW_LEN`
needs to be defined to the amount of view the shader will access.
The number of views contained in a `draw::View` is set at construction
time.
Note that the maximum number of object correctly drawn by the shaders
using multiple views will be lower than thoses who don't.

This patch moves the GLSL shaders and their infos to the compositor

This patch adds a placeholder for the vulkan backend.
When activated (`WITH_VULKAN_BACKEND=On` and `--gpu-backend vulkan`)
it might open a blender screen, but nothing should be visible as
none of the functions are implemented or otherwise crash on a nullptr.
This is expected as this is just a placeholder. The goal is to add shader compilation
+validation to this backend as one of the next steps so we can validate
changes to existing shaders on OpenGL, Metal and Vulkan at the same time.

The bokeh blur node flipped its bokeh input due to the conceptual
difference between the search window space and the weights texture
space. This patches fixes that by inverting the weights texture to match
the search window.
The variable size option actually flips the bokeh input for the CPU
compositor. It is unclear if this is expected, so we deviate from that
behavior for now.
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.

Previously this was using `GPU_SHADER_TEXT` as default value indicating
an "unset" state. This wasn't documented in the definition (and so
D16284 added a new enumerator that broke this). Plus code was assuming
this enumerator would always have the value 0 without specifying this in
the definition either.
In this case it's easy to not rely on the enum value at all, and just
use `std::optional` to add a "unset" state.

Add command line argument to switch gpu backend. Add `--gpu-backend` option to

Values for this option that will be available in releases for now are:
* opengl: Force blender to select OpenGL backend.
During development and depending on compile options additional values can exist:
* metal: Force Blender to select Metal backend.
When this option isn't provided the internal logic for GPU backend selection will be used.
Note that this is at the time of writing the same as always selecting the opengl backend.

The interface needs to bind the shaders for some parameter setup.
This program change wasn't reflected in the GPUContext.
This was then conflicting with the next shader bind if the next shader was
the same as the shader bound before the interface creation.
Setting the state to the correct shader ensures a rebind if needed.

This patch implements the variable size blur option in the Bokeh Blur
node. The implementation is different from the CPU one in that it also
takes the Bounding Box input into account, which is ignored for some
reason for the CPU. Additionally, this implementation does not do the
optimization where the search radius is limited relative to the maximum
value in the size texture. That's because the cost of computing the
maximum is not worth it for most use cases.
The reference implementation does three unexpected things that are
replicated here nonetheless. First, the center bokeh weight is always
ignored and assumed to be 1. Second the size of the center pixel is
taken into account. Third, a unidimensional distance is used instead of
a 2D euclidean one. Those need to be considered independently.

The attribute node already allows accessing attributes associated
with objects and meshes, which allows changing the behavior of the
same material between different objects or instances. The same idea
can be extended to an even more global level of layers and scenes.
Currently view layers provide an option to replace all materials
with a different one. However, since the same material will be applied
to all objects in the layer, varying the behavior between layers while
preserving distinct materials requires duplicating objects.
Providing access to properties of layers and scenes via the attribute
node enables making materials with built-in switches or settings that
can be controlled globally at the view layer level. This is probably
most useful for complex NPR shading and compositing. Like with objects,
the node can also access built-in scene properties, like render resolution
or FOV of the active camera. Lookup is also attempted in World, similar
to how the Object mode checks the Mesh datablock.
In Cycles this mode is implemented by replacing the attribute node with
the attribute value during sync, allowing constant folding to take the
values into account. This means however that materials that use this
feature have to be re-synced upon any changes to scene, world or camera.
The Eevee version uses a new uniform buffer containing a sorted array
mapping name hashes to values, with binary search lookup. The array
is limited to 512 entries, which is effectively limitless even
considering it is shared by all materials in the scene; it is also
just 16KB of memory so no point trying to optimize further.
The buffer has to be rebuilt when new attributes are detected in a
material, so the draw engine keeps a table of recently seen attribute
names to minimize the chance of extra rebuilds mid-draw.
