This way we remove the need for the srgb boolean uniform and a lot of code complexity. However, mesh update is going to be a bit slower.
I did not benchmark the performance impact.
This also fix a typo in draw_cache_impl_particles.c and fix hair not using vertex color in workbench.

The lines index buffer can contain all edges (edit mode) or only loose
edges (object mode). When switching between these modes the wrong
content of the index buffer can be used.
This patch will clear the lines index buffer when a `loose_edges` is requested. Making sure it is always up to date.
Note that this is supporting an exising hack where the IBO is truncated
during the creation. We should find a different way how to solve these
kind of issues.

Support for UV Stretching overlay during multi object editing. The
VBO now holds the ratios per fase. In the shader these ratios will
be compared against the global ratios. The global rations are created
from all selected objects.
The current implementation does not fit well with the draw module. The
plan is to move the drawing of other spaces towards the draw manager what
leads to a better fit. Currently the details on this solution is unclear
but this requirement will become an attentionpoint in the future design.

This is done because they don't have the same update frequency. UV can be
persistent even on geometry update (ex: skinned object) but tangents
can change if the normals change.
Also the name buffer per vbo was too small to contain all names.
For clarity sake, the batch cache now uses exclusively per Loop attributes.
While this is a bit of a waste of VRAM (for the few case where per vert
attribs are enough) it reduces the complexity and amount of overall VBO
to update in general situations.
This patch also makes the VertexBuffers filling multithreaded. This make
the update of dense meshes a bit faster. The main bottleneck is the
IndexBuffers update which cannot be multithreaded efficiently (have to
increment a counter and/or do a final sorting pass).
We introduce the concept of "extract" functions/step.
All extract functions are executed in one thread each and if possible,
using multiple thread for looping over all elements.
