Based on @fclem's suggestion in D6421, this commit implements support for
storing all tiles of a UDIM texture in a single 2D array texture on the GPU.
Previously, Eevee was binding one OpenGL texture per tile, quickly running
into hardware limits with nontrivial UDIM texture sets.
Workbench meanwhile had no UDIM support at all, as reusing the per-tile
approach would require splitting the mesh by tile as well as texture.
With this commit, both Workbench as well as Eevee now support huge numbers
of tiles, with the eventual limits being GPU memory and ultimately
GL_MAX_ARRAY_TEXTURE_LAYERS, which tends to be in the 1000s on modern GPUs.
Initially my plan was to have one array texture per unique size, but managing
the different textures and keeping everything consistent ended up being way
too complex.
Therefore, we now use a simpler version that allocates a texture that
is large enough to fit the largest tile and then packs all tiles into as many
layers as necessary.
As a result, each UDIM texture only binds two textures (one for the actual
images, one for metadata) regardless of how many tiles are used.
Note that this rolls back per-tile GPUTextures, meaning that we again have
per-Image GPUTextures like we did before the original UDIM commit,
but now with four instead of two types.

The `do_versions_after_linking_280()` function was missing a placeholder
for the newly added versioning code. I copied the comments from the
`blo_do_versions_280()` function.
No functional changes.
During development of Blender 2.80 the `Object.hide` property was removed,
and later reintroduced in rB5e968a996a53 as `Object.hide_viewport`. Of
course there are some technical details missing in this summary, but this
is the view that's given in the 2.80 release notes.
FCurves on `Object.hide` weren't updated in versioning code, resulting in
the property no longer being animated. This commit corrects the RNA path
of such FCurves.
This commits introduces the pose_ik_segments brush property in the Pose Brush. When increasing the IK segments count, the brush generates more segments and weights associations following the topology of the mesh. When moving the brush, these segments are transformed using an IK solver and they are used to deform the mesh.
When pressing Ctrl, the brush controls the segments' roll rotation instead of using the IK solver. The brush falloff controls how much rotation is propagated from the first to the last segment in the chain.

Previously the alpha was hardcoded to 0.7. Now it is possible to control
the cursor alpha by changing the alpha color of the cursor color
property. New alpha default is 0.9. This, with the new saturated colors,
should make the cursor more visible on highdpi screens.
I also removed the cache location preview as it is too visible right now

This commit affects `id_sort_by_name()` and `check_for_dupid()` helper:
* Add a new parameter, `ID *id_sorting_hint`, to `id_sort_by_name()`,
and when non-NULL, check if we can insert `id` immediately before or
after it. This can dramatically reduce time spent in that function.
* Use loop over whole list in `check_for_dupid()` to also define the
likely ID pointer that will be neighbor with our new one.
This gives another decent speedup to all massive addition cases:
| Number and type of names of IDs | old code | new code | speed improvement |
| -------------------------------- | -------- | -------- | ----------------- |
| 40K, mixed (14k rand, 26k const) | 39s | 33s | 18% |
| 40K, fully random | 51s | 42s | 21% |
| 40K, fully constant | 40s | 34s | 18% |
Combined with the previous commits, this makes massive addition of IDs more
than twice as fast as previously.

This patch contains the work that I did during my week at the Code Quest - adding support for tiled images to Blender.
With this patch, images now contain a list of tiles. By default, this just contains one tile, but if the source type is set to Tiled, the user can add additional tiles. When acquiring an ImBuf, the tile to be loaded is specified in the ImageUser.
Therefore, code that is not yet aware of tiles will just access the default tile as usual.
The filenames of the additional tiles are derived from the original filename according to the UDIM naming scheme - the filename contains an index that is calculated as (1001 + 10*<y coordinate of the tile> + <x coordinate of the tile>), where the x coordinate never goes above 9.
Internally, the various tiles are stored in a cache just like sequences. When acquired for the first time, the code will try to load the corresponding file from disk. Alternatively, a new operator can be used to initialize the tile similar to the New Image operator.
The following features are supported so far:
- Automatic detection and loading of all tiles when opening the first tile (1001)
- Saving all tiles
- Adding and removing tiles
- Filling tiles with generated images
- Drawing all tiles in the Image Editor
- Viewing a tiled grid even if no image is selected
- Rendering tiled images in Eevee
- Rendering tiled images in Cycles (in SVM mode)
- Automatically skipping loading of unused tiles in Cycles
- 2D texture painting (also across tiles)
- 3D texture painting (also across tiles, only limitation: individual faces can not cross tile borders)
- Assigning custom labels to individual tiles (drawn in the Image Editor instead of the ID)
- Different resolutions between tiles
There still are some missing features that will be added later (see T72390):
- Workbench engine support
- Packing/Unpacking support
- Baking support
- Cycles OSL support
- many other Blender features that rely on images
Thanks to Brecht for the review and to all who tested the intermediate versions!

Previously Noise and Wave texture nodes would use noise functions within a [0,1]
range for distortion effects. We either add or subtract noise from coordinates,
never do both at same time. This led to the texture drastically shifting on the
diagonal axis of a plane / cube. This behavior makes the Distortion input hard
to control or animate. Capabilities of driving it with other texture are also
limited, diagonal shifting is very apparent.
This was fixed by offsetting the noise function to a signed range and making it
zero-centered. This way noise is uniformly added and subtracted from coordinates.
Texture pattern sticks to main coordinates which makes it way easier to control.
This change is not strictly backwards compatible, there is versioning to ensure
the scale of the distortion remains similar, but the particular pattern can be
a little different.

This patch will allow the user to select the EEVEE renderpass to be

Limitations:
* Viewport rendering stores the result in a `RenderResult`. RenderResult
is not aware of the type of data it holds. In many places where RenderResult
is used it is assumed that it stores a combined pass and the display+view
transform are applied.
I will propose to fix this in a future patch. But that is still being

The relation between the pressure/size and the pressure/alpha is a
fundamental property that defines the behavior of a brush, so it does
not make sense to have it unified across all brushes. This applies both
for sculpting and painting.
Some of the new 2.82 brushes need pressure/size or pressure/alpha to be
enabled to work propely, while others don't. Users should not be
switching on and off this property manually when changing brushes if they
want to use unified size. This is also causing that some users are using
the brushes with an incorrect configuration.

After adding normal radius, the main use of the Scrape brush is to create flat surfaces with sharp edges. In that case, it does not make sense to have our current "Peaks" version of the brush as its inverted version.
The correct inverted version of Scrape for this use case is the Fill brush. This way you can use this tool to crease both concave and convex sharp edges and to fix the artifacts one version produces with its inverted version.
I think we should merge these two tools into one, but for now, this solution keeps compatibility with the old behavior.

The Multiplane Scrape brush creates sharp edges with a given fixed angle by trimming the mesh with two planes in local space at the same time. When working with stylized or hard surface models, this brush produces way better results and is more predictable than any other crease/flatten brush based on curves and alphas.
It is also the first brush we have than can produce hard surface concave creases.
The Multiplane Scrape Brush also has a dynamic mode where it samples the surface to fit the angle and scrape planes during a stroke. With this mode enabled you can sculpt multiple times over the same edge without creating artifacts.
It can also create creases that change between concave and convex during the same stroke.
The behavior of this brush will improve after merging patches like D5993 and its behavior in concave creases can still be improved, so I will keep tweaking its parameters and default values once we have all brush properties available.
