This is a first part of the Shader Create Info system could be.
A shader create info provides a way to define shader structure, resources
and interfaces. This makes for a quick way to provide backend agnostic
binding informations while also making shader variations easy to declare.
- Clear source input (only one file). Cleans up the GPU api since we can create a
shader from one descriptor
- Resources and interfaces are generated by the backend (much simpler than parsing).
- Bindings are explicit from position in the array.
- GPUShaderInterface becomes a trivial translation of enums and string copy.
- No external dependency to third party lib.
- Cleaner code, less fragmentation of resources in several libs.
- Easy to modify / extend at runtime.
- no parser involve, very easy to code.
- Does not hold any data, can be static and kept on disc.
- Could hold precompiled bytecode for static shaders.
This also includes a new global dependency system.
GLSL shaders can include other sources by using #pragma BLENDER_REQUIRE(...).
This patch already migrated several builtin shaders. Other shaders should be migrated
one at a time, and could be done inside master.
There is a new compile directive `WITH_GPU_SHADER_BUILDER` this is an optional
directive for linting shaders to increase turn around time.
What is remaining:
- pyGPU API {T94975}
- Migration of other shaders. This could be a community effort.

`DEG_OBJECT_ITER_FOR_RENDER_ENGINE_BEGIN` creates temporary objects that
correspond to duplicates or instances.
These temporary objects can share same pointers with the original object
as in the case of Bounding Box.
Bound Box of temporary objects is marked dirty in
`BKE_object_replace_data_on_shallow_copy` since `ob->data` is different.
This causes the original Bounding Box, calculated for the evaluated
geometry, to be lost.
The solution in this commit is to change the boundbox reference of the
temporary objects, so the boundbox of the non-temporary object (with
the data curve) is not marked dirty.

This evaluator is used in order to evaluate subdivision at render time, allowing for
faster renders of meshes with a subdivision surface modifier placed at the last
position in the modifier list.
When evaluating the subsurf modifier, we detect whether we can delegate evaluation
to the draw code. If so, the subdivision is first evaluated on the GPU using our own
custom evaluator (only the coarse data needs to be initially sent to the GPU), then,
buffers for the final `MeshBufferCache` are filled on the GPU using a set of
compute shaders. However, some buffers are still filled on the CPU side, if doing so
on the GPU is impractical (e.g. the line adjacency buffer used for x-ray, whose
logic is hardly GPU compatible).
This is done at the mesh buffer extraction level so that the result can be readily used
in the various OpenGL engines, without having to write custom geometry or tesselation
shaders.
We use our own subdivision evaluation shaders, instead of OpenSubDiv's vanilla one, in
order to control the data layout, and interpolation. For example, we store vertex colors
as compressed 16-bit integers, while OpenSubDiv's default evaluator only work for float
types.
In order to still access the modified geometry on the CPU side, for use in modifiers
or transform operators, a dedicated wrapper type is added `MESH_WRAPPER_TYPE_SUBD`.
Subdivision will be lazily evaluated via `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh` which will
create such a wrapper if possible. If the final subdivision surface is not needed on
the CPU side, `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh_no_subsurf` should be used.
Enabling or disabling GPU subdivision can be done through the user preferences (under
Viewport -> Subdivision).
See patch description for benchmarks.

The problem is that drw_batch_cache_generate_requested_delayed
is called on the object, which uses the original object data type to
choose which data type to get info for. So for curves and text it uses
the incorrect type (not the evaluated mesh like we hardcoded in the
armature overlay code).
To fix this I hardcoded the "delayed" generation to only use the
evaluated mesh. Luckily it wasn't use elsewhere besides this
armature overlay system. That seems like the simplest fix for
3.0. A proper solution should rewrite this whole area anyway.

This was caused by `DRW_view_data_texture_list_size_validate` which now
delete everything from the render engine.
This might change in the future but for now we just avoid calling it from
the render loop (when using DRW_cache_restart).
There was a double lock in the object depth drawing function.
Also the texture read was not reading the texture with the right
format. Now it needs a conversion.

Addresses T77127 (Controller Drawing).
Adds VR controller visualization and custom drawing via draw
handlers. Add-ons can draw to the XR surface (headset display) and
mirror window by adding a View3D draw handler of region type 'XR' and
draw type 'POST_VIEW'. Controller drawing and custom overlays can be
toggled individually as XR session options, which will be added in a
future update to the VR Scene Inspection add-on.
For the actual drawing, the OpenXR XR_MSFT_controller_model extension
is used to load a glTF model provided by the XR runtime. The model's
vertex data is then used to create a GPUBatch in the XR session
state. Finally, this batch is drawn via the XR surface draw handler
mentioned above.
For runtimes that do not support the controller model extension, a
a simple fallback shape (sphere) is drawn instead.

Issue is that test cases re-uses draw manager. The new
`DRWRegisteredDrawEngine` struct is only freed when a
valid opengl context was found. what isn't the case
when running test cases.
Also made sure that re-using draw manager would use re-inited
values.
This is a necessary step for EEVEE's new arch. This moves more data
to the draw manager. This makes it easier to have the render or draw
engines manage their own data.
This makes more sense and cleans-up what the GPUViewport holds
Also rewrites the Texture pool manager to be in C++.
This also move the DefaultFramebuffer/TextureList and the engine related
data to a new `DRWViewData` struct. This struct manages the per view
(as in stereo view) engine data.
There is a bit of cleanup in the way the draw manager is setup.
We now use a temporary DRWData instead of creating a dummy viewport.

This patch allows dropping material assets from material slot under the mouse
cursor. Before this change the material slot had to be hand-picked from the
properties panel.
For consistency it is chosen to do this in any shading mode as the tooltip shows
what is exactly going to happen during release.
The feature also works for other object types than Meshes as it uses the drawn surface on the
GPU to detect the material slots. Performance of this patch has been tested with AMD GCN3.0
cards and are very responsive.

Previously, the Point Instance node in geometry nodes could only instance
existing objects or collections. The reason was that large parts of Blender
worked under the assumption that objects are the main unit of instancing.
Now we also want to instance geometry within an object, so a slightly larger
refactor was necessary.
This should not affect files that do not use the new kind of instances.
The main change is a redefinition of what "instanced data" is. Now, an
instances is a cow-object + object-data (the geometry). This can be nicely
seen in `struct DupliObject`. This allows the same object to generate
multiple geometries of different types which can be instanced individually.
A nice side effect of this refactor is that having multiple geometry components
is not a special case in the depsgraph object iterator anymore, because those
components are integrated with the `DupliObject` system.
Unfortunately, different systems that work with instances in Blender (e.g.
render engines and exporters) often work under the assumption that objects are
the main unit of instancing. So those have to be updated as well to be able to
handle the new instances. This patch updates Cycles, EEVEE and other viewport
engines. Exporters have not been updated yet. Some minimal (not master-ready)
changes to update the obj and alembic exporters can be found in P2336 and P2335.
Different file formats may want to handle these new instances in different ways.
For users, the only thing that changed is that the Point Instance node now
has a geometry mode.
This also fixes T88454.

changing the context is a slow operation, that function also was removed,
and the depth buffer cached is now updated inside the new unified drawing
function when the "bool update_cache" parameter is true.

Regression introduced by {rBed809866b172} where overlays weren't drawn
when overlays are turned off. The background in wireframe, solid
(always) and material preview and render preview (when not using scene
world) are also part of the overlays.
During viewport rendering the color values were clamped in order to
apply the overlay on top of it. This clamping would show the scene
colors washed out.
This patch adds a work around to skip the clamping when the overlays are
turned off.
