e7fedf6dba Revert "Eevee: support accessing custom mesh attributes"
This reverts commit 03013d19d1.

This commit broke the windows build pretty badly and I don't
feel confident landing the fix for this without review.

Will post a possible fix in D12969 and we'll take it from there.

03013d19d1 Eevee: support accessing custom mesh attributes
This adds generic attribute rendering support for meshes for Eevee and
Workbench. Each attribute is stored inside of the `MeshBufferList` as a
separate VBO, with a maximum of `GPU_MAX_ATTR` VBOs for consistency with
the GPU shader compilation code.

Since `DRW_MeshCDMask` is not general enough, attribute requests are
stored in new `DRW_AttributeRequest` structures inside of a convenient
`DRW_MeshAttributes` structure. The latter is used in a similar manner
as `DRW_MeshCDMask`, with the `MeshBatchCache` keeping track of needed,
used, and used-over-time attributes. Again, `GPU_MAX_ATTR` is used in
`DRW_MeshAttributes` to prevent too many attributes being used.

To ensure thread-safety when updating the used attributes list, a mutex
is added to the Mesh runtime. This mutex will also be used in the future
for other things when other part of the rendre pre-processing are multi-threaded.

`GPU_BATCH_VBO_MAX_LEN` was increased to 16 in order to accommodate for
this design.

Since `CD_PROP_COLOR` are a valid attribute type, sculpt vertex colors
are now handled using this system to avoid to complicate things. In the
future regular vertex colors will also use this. From this change, bit
operations for DRW_MeshCDMask are now using uint32_t (to match the
representation now used by the compiler).

Due to the difference in behavior for implicit type conversion for scalar types
between OpenGL and what users expect (a scalar `s` is converted to
`vec4(s, 0, 0, 1)` by OpenGL, vs. `vec4(s, s, s, 1)` in Blender's various node graphs) ,
all scalar types are using a float3 internally for now, which increases memory usage.
This will be resolved during or after the EEVEE rewrite as properly handling
this involves much deeper changes.

eb0c50ac78 Cleanup: rename 'MeshBufferExtractionCache' to 'MeshBufferCache'
Matches the existing `MeshBatchCache`.

6e51ef9531 Cleanup: rename 'MeshBufferCache' to 'MeshBufferList'
`MeshBufferList` is more specific and can avoid confusion with
`MeshBufferExtractionCache`.

3059853732 Cleanup: Rearrange mesh extraction files
In the draw module, it's not easy to identify what its header is, and
where the shared functions are.

So move `draw_cache_extract_mesh_extractors.c` and
`draw_cache_extract_mesh_private.h` to the same folder as the extractors
and rename these files to make them more identifiable.
