Reversing Bezier handle types and positions would skip the middle point
of curves with an odd number of segments, which is still necessary to
swap in order to avoid changing the curve's shape.
The material indices have been moved out of MPoly since f1c0249f34.
That conversion happens in file reading code currently, so the material
indices have to be accessed the new way everywhere.
The "set default" callback doesn't need to be defined since it falls
back to clearing the memory, but since "construct" is optional, it
needs to be defined. Mistake in 25237d2625.
These few lines making a copy of the final mesh were confusing.
The goal (I'm fairly certain) is to make sure the cage mesh and final
mesh aren't shared when applying the vertex coordinates to the final
mesh. This can be done more simply though, in a way that avoids
duplicating the final mesh if it already isn't shared.
This works well in some basic tests with different modifiers. Though
I doubt it was really a bottleneck anywhere, simplifying the modifier
stack internals is always nice.

This patch moves material indices from the mesh `MPoly` struct to a
generic integer attribute. The builtin material index was already
exposed in geometry nodes, but this makes it a "proper" attribute
accessible with Python and visible in the "Attributes" panel.
The goals of the refactor are code simplification and memory and
performance improvements, mainly because the attribute doesn't have
to be stored and processed if there are no materials. However, until
4.0, material indices will still be read and written in the old
format, meaning there may be a temporary increase in memory usage.
Further notes:
* Completely removing the `MPoly.mat_nr` after 4.0 may require
changes to DNA or introducing a new `MPoly` type.
* Geometry nodes regression tests didn't look at material indices,
so the change reveals a bug in the realize instances node that I fixed.
* Access to material indices from the RNA `MeshPolygon` type is slower
with this patch. The `material_index` attribute can be used instead.
* Cycles is changed to read from the attribute instead.
* BMesh isn't changed in this patch. Theoretically it could be though,
to save 2 bytes per face when less than two materials are used.
* Eventually we could use a 16 bit integer attribute type instead.

The purpose of `NodeTreeRef` was to speed up various queries on a read-only
`bNodeTree`. Not that we have runtime data in nodes and sockets, we can also
store the result of some queries there. This has some benefits:
* No need for a read-only separate node tree data structure which increased
complexity.
* Makes it easier to reuse cached queries in more parts of Blender that can
benefit from it.
A downside is that we loose some type safety that we got by having different
types for input and output sockets, as well as internal and non-internal links.
This patch also refactors `DerivedNodeTree` so that it does not use
`NodeTreeRef` anymore, but uses `bNodeTree` directly instead.
To provide a convenient API (that is also close to what `NodeTreeRef` has), a
new approach is implemented: `bNodeTree`, `bNode`, `bNodeSocket` and `bNodeLink`
now have C++ methods declared in `DNA_node_types.h` which are implemented in
`BKE_node_runtime.hh`. To make this work, `makesdna` now skips c++ sections when
parsing dna header files.
No user visible changes are expected.

While missing the break before a default that only breaks isn't
an error, it means adding new cases needs to remember to add the
break for an existing case, changing the default case will also
result in an unintended fall-through.
Also avoid `default:;` and add an explicit break.
This patch is a response to T92588 and is implemented
as a Function/Shader node.
This node has support for Float, Vector and Color data types.
For Vector it supports uniform and non-uniform mixing.
For Color it now has the option to remove factor clamping.
It replaces the Mix RGB for Shader and Geometry node trees.
As discussed in T96219, this patch converts existing nodes
in .blend files. The old node is still available in the
Python API but hidden from the menus.

When creating a curves data-block, one is expected to set the new
position values. We can slightly improve performance by avoiding
doing that redundantly.
Similar to cccc6d6905.
The "write_only" (i.e. no reading) API function expects the caller to
set values for all new attribute elements, so using calloc or setting
the default value first is redundant. In theory this can improve
performance by avoiding an extra pass over the array. I observed a
6% improvement in a basic test with the mesh to points node:
from 47.9ms to 45ms on average.
See 25237d2625 for more info.
Similar to cccc6d6905.
In all these cases, it was clear that the layer values were set right
after the layer was created anyway. So there's no point in using
calloc or setting the values to zero first.
See 25237d2625 for more info.
If a "rest_position" attribute already existed, potentiall with another
type, the next name "rest_position.001" would be used, which might
even conflict with a name on another domain. Use the C++ attribute
API instead, which has more standard/predictable behavior.
When allocating new `CustomData` layers, often we do redundant
initialization of arrays. For example, it's common that values are
allocated, set to their default value, and then set to some other
value. This is wasteful, and it negates the benefits of optimizations
to the allocator like D15082. There are two reasons for this. The
first is array-of-structs storage that makes it annoying to initialize
values manually, and the second is confusing options in the Custom Data
API. This patch addresses the latter.
The `CustomData` "alloc type" options are rearranged. Now, besides
the options that use existing layers, there are two remaining:
* `CD_SET_DEFAULT` sets the default value.
* Usually zeroes, but for colors this is white (how it was before).
* Should be used when you add the layer but don't set all values.
* `CD_CONSTRUCT` refers to the "default construct" C++ term.
* Only necessary or defined for non-trivial types like vertex groups.
* Doesn't do anything for trivial types like `int` or `float3`.
* Should be used every other time, when all values will be set.
The attribute API's `AttributeInit` types are updated as well.
To update code, replace `CD_CALLOC` with `CD_SET_DEFAULT` and
`CD_DEFAULT` with `CD_CONSTRUCT`. This doesn't cause any functional
changes yet. Follow-up commits will change to avoid initializing
new layers where the correctness is clear.

Using the same `GeometryComponentFieldContext` for all situations,
even when only one geometry type is supported is misleading, and mixes
too many different abstraction levels into code that could be simpler.
With the attribute API moved out of geometry components recently,
the "component" system is just getting in the way here.
This commit adds specific field contexts for geometry types: meshes,
curves, point clouds, and instances. There are also separate field input
helper classes, to help reduce boilerplate for fields that only support
specific geometry types.
Another benefit of this change is that it separates geometry components
from fields, which makes it easier to see the purpose of the two concepts,
and how they relate.
Because we want to be able to evaluate a field on just `CurvesGeometry`
rather than the full `Curves` data-block, the generic "geometry context"
had to be changed to avoid using `GeometryComponent`, since there is
no corresponding geometry component type. The resulting void pointer
is ugly, but only turns up in three places in practice. When Apple clang
supports `std::variant`, that could be used instead.

Before 8c25889bb6, subsurf face center tags were stored in each
vertex, so they were always copied to duplicate meshes. Now they are
stored in runtime data though, so they need to be copied explicitly.
The function name "reset_on_copy" is a bit awkward here, so the
tags are copied by the caller.
Actually, when you increase the thickness of the stroke in the outline conversion, the shape of the stroke changes and becomes thicker.
This commit includes a new algorithm to correct this problem. A new `Keep Shape` parameter allows you to disable it because, for artist reasons, it may be good to keep the old algorithm and change the shape.
If these layers didn't exist on the original mesh, they would be created
from scratch and transferred anyway. That is inefficient because all the
work is pointless, and because creating these layers could slow down
subsequent sculpt operations.
It's possible for misbehaving scripts written before 3.3 to reach
this state and crash Blender. With this change, the error is reduced
to a Python exception.

Weight and Vertex paint don't change coordinates and thus don't need
crazyspace data, which allows using coordinates from normal evaluated
meshes.
Since painting uses original topology, the deform only mesh is used,
but if the fully evaluated mesh has the same topology, it is preferred.
This is useful because not only Geometry Nodes, but even simple weight
computation modifiers are excluded from the deform only mesh evaluation.
