Based on outdated refract patch D6619 by @cubic_sloth
`refract` and `faceforward` are standard functions in GLSL, OSL and Godot shader languages.
Adding these functions provides Blender shader artists access to these standard functions.

This replaces header include guards with `#pragma once`.
A couple of include guards are not removed yet (e.g. `__RNA_TYPES_H__`),
because they are used in other places.
This patch has been generated by P1561 followed by `make format`.

This implements a new builtin node tree type called `SimulationNodeTree`.
It is not yet embedded in the `Simulation` data block.
The node tree will initially be used for the new particle nodes system.
When the cmake option `WITH_NEW_SIMULATION_TYPE` is enabled, a new
`Simulation Editor` is shown in the editors menu (which is just a node editor).
This patch does not add entries to the Add Node menu, so it is empty.

Add Multiply, Divide, Project, Reflect, Distance, Length, Scale, Snap,
Floor, Ceil, Modulo, Fraction, Absolute, Minimum, and Maximum operators
to the Vector Math node. The Value output has been removed from operators
whose output is a vector, and the other way around. All of those removals
has been handled properly in versioning code.
The patch doesn't include tests for the new operators. Tests will be added
in a later patch.

The root of the problem goes to the fact that node tree copying
uses source tree and nodes for a temporary storage.
This makes it so multiple dependency graphs can not be reliably
evaluated from different threads if they are using same original
node tree.
Solved by doing the following:
- Commonly used tree copying function (which is used by library
manager) keeps source tree, nodes and sockets untouched.
- All the related areas (like node tree's callback) now have
const qualifier on the input.
- Areas which needs to have those temporary pointers assigned are
now using explicit function.
Would be really cool to get rid of those temporary pointers
completely, but this is a bit tricky due to hairy nature of the
code. Can happen any time now though: is easy enough to generalize
the new pointers mapping.
Note that this change is only intended to solve the crash.
The fact that icons shouldn't be updated on playback will be fixed
as a separate change.

Nodes have a feature for moving existing links to unoccupied sockets when connecting
to an already used input. This is based on the standard legacy socket types (value/float,
vector, color/rgba) and works reasonably well for shader, compositor and texture nodes.
For new pynode systems, however, the hardcoded nature of that feature has major drawbacks:
* It does not take different type systems into account, leading to meaningless connections
when sockets are swapped and making the feature useless or outright debilitating.
* Advanced socket behaviors would be possible with a registerable callback, e.g. creating
extensible input lists that move existing connections down to make room for a new link.
Now any handling of new links is done via the 'insert_links' callback, which can also be
registered through the RNA API. For the legacy shader/compo/tex nodes the behavior is the
same, using a C callback.
Note on the 'use_swap' flag: this has been removed because it was meaningless anyway:
It was disabled only for the insert-node-on-link feature, which works only for
completely unconnected nodes anyway, so there would be nothing to swap in the first place.
PyNodes opens up the node system in Blender to scripters and adds a number of UI-level improvements.
=== Dynamic node type registration ===
Node types can now be added at runtime, using the RNA registration mechanism from python. This enables addons such as render engines to create a complete user interface with nodes.
Examples of how such nodes can be defined can be found in my personal wiki docs atm [1] and as a script template in release/scripts/templates_py/custom_nodes.py [2].
=== Node group improvements ===
Each node editor now has a tree history of edited node groups, which allows opening and editing nested node groups. The node editor also supports pinning now, so that different spaces can be used to edit different node groups simultaneously. For more ramblings and rationale see (really old) blog post on code.blender.org [3].
The interface of node groups has been overhauled. Sockets of a node group are no longer displayed in columns on either side, but instead special input/output nodes are used to mirror group sockets inside a node tree. This solves the problem of long node lines in groups and allows more adaptable node layout. Internal sockets can be exposed from a group by either connecting to the extension sockets in input/output nodes (shown as empty circle) or by adding sockets from the node property bar in the "Interface" panel. Further details such as the socket name can also be changed there.

Storing this list in the node has the advantage of requiring far fewer calls to the potentially expensive internal_connect callback. This was called on every node redraw ...
Also it will allow Cycles to properly use the internal links for muted nodes, which ensures consistent behavior. The previous method was not applicable in Cycles because transient list return values are not supported well in the RNA and particularly the C++ API implementation.
There are a number of features that use a kind of "internal linking" in nodes:
1. muting
2. delete + reconnect (restore link to/from node after delete)
3. the new detach operator (same as 2, but don't delete the node)
The desired behavior in all cases is the same: find a sensible mapping of inputs-to-outputs of a node. In the case of muting these links are displayed in red on the node itself. For the other operators they are used to relink connections, such that one gets the best possible ongoing link between previous up- and downstream nodes.
Muting previously used a complicated callback system to ensure consistent behavior in the editor as well as execution in compositor, shader cpu/gpu and texture nodes. This has been greatly simplified by moving the muting step into the node tree localization functions. Any muted node is now bypassed using the generalized nodeInternalRelink function and then removed from the local tree. This way the internal execution system doesn't have to deal with muted nodes at all, as if they are non-existent.
The same function is also used by the delete_reconnect and the new links_detach operators (which work directly in the editor node tree). Detaching nodes is currently keymapped as a translation variant (macro operator): pressing ALTKEY + moving node first detaches and then continues with regular transform operator. The default key is ALT+DKEY though, instead ALT+GKEY, since the latter is already used for the ungroup operator.
Now, compositing, shading and texture nodes have a consistent muting system, with default behaving as previous (for compo), and which can be optionaly customized by each node.
Shader nodes are also GLSL muted.
However, Cycles is currently unaware of muted nodes, will try to address this…
This branch adds mostly organizational improvements to the node system by renaming the node folders and files. A couple of internal features have been added too.

Also added 0 key (zero key) shortcut when mouse is over a button, to reset it to its default value.
Same as the RMB menu ->Reset to Default, except for color wheels, it only resets the hue/sat/value
components that that widget affects.
Peter/Xavier: The existing color balance code can generate NaNs (fractional power of a negative),
which causes havoc along the image pipeline. I added a check in the node code to prevent this.
Still plenty of potential for lots of better colour correction tools in the compositor, just needs time...
* refactor copying and freeing of node->storage by handlerizing them.
- freestoragefunc
- copystoragefunc
- node_util.c/h have generic handlers for these.
