- Move handling of private ID data (nodetree and master_collection)
under generic ID code. This shortens code a bit, but mostly avoids having
to modify all type-specific callback functions if/when we have to add
generic processing to IDs there.
- Seriously factorize `expand_xxx` area, in the same way we were already
doing in `direct_link_xxx` and `lib_link_xxx` areas.
Note that this actually also fixes some bugs (at least, potential ones),
like e.g. missing call to expand_id() for our beloved 'private ID'
(nodetrees & co), in current master code...

If the linked or append grease pencil object was added to the scene, the original file could have the datablock status in a different mode, so it's necessary to be sure is in object mode.

Liblink specific ID type function was so far running a loop over all IDs
of relevant type, unlike almost any other 'ID-callback-like' functions
in Blender, which usually let the looping controll to calling code.
The latter approach is more convinient when one want to add generic
(i.e. type-agnostic) code, since it typically only has to change code in
one place (caller function) instead of tens of places (all the callback
functions).
This commit also changes/sanitizes a few things that had nothing to do
in main liblink code, like mesh conversion from tessfaces to polys
(which can be done in after-linking versionning code), or scenes' cycles
detection/check regarding background 'set' scenes.

In current `readfile.c` code we have that:
https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/master/source/blender/blenloader/intern/readfile.c$3523
This is unconditionally clearing nodetree's recalc flags, and was added by rB81a762e79f83 ages ago. Thing is, in main ID read code we only clear that flag when **not** in undo context.
This proposed change intends to properly handle those cases, by moving `id.recalc` flags clearing from `read_libblock()` to `direct_link_id()`, which is also called for all 'local' IDs (ntrees and master collections currently).
I’d expect that change to be straightforward (and maybe even fixing some odd undocumented bugs), however there is no .blend file testcases associated with changes in rB81a762e79f83, so wouldn’t mind that to be double checked before it goes to master.

Not fully fixing it for now since I do not see an easy way to remove freed
pointer from libmap, and it does not seem to be an actual, practical
issue currently, but eeek...
Blender supports locking vertex groups to prevent changes to the
weights. However, as mentioned in comments for D3837, it is hard
to use this because there is no interface for locking in 3D View.
This adds a red shade to bones that are associated with a locked
weight group during weight paint mode, as the first step to adding
such interface. The next step is adding a pie menu for lock/unlock.

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.

Not sure how the WorkSpaceLayout.screen pointer could end up being NULL,
but apparently that happens, or at least happened with older files.
Rather than just adding NULL-checks, prefer not keeping around those
invalid layouts at all.
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.
A collection of smaller changes that are required in the /blender/source files. A lot of them are also due to variable renaming.

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!

Add smooth scrolling support for vertical scrolling.
This is only active while scrolling so we don't need to support
pixel-level offsets for operators, interactions.
Diffing on undo steps is a critical performance point of override
system, although not required for override itself, it gives user
immediate feedback ove what is overridden.
Profiling showed that rna path text search over overrides operations was
by far the most costly thing here, so now using a runtime temp ghash
mapping for this search instead.
Seems to give at least 5 times speedup on big production rig.
Custom profiles in bevel allows the profile curve to be controlled by
manually placed control points. Orientation is regularized along
groups of edges, and the 'pipe case' is updated. This commit includes
many updates to comments and changed variable names as well.
A 'cutoff' vertex mesh method is added to bevel in addition to the
existing grid fill option for replacing vertices.
The UI of the bevel modifier and tool are updated and unified.
Also, a 'CurveProfile' widget is added to BKE for defining the profile
in the interface, which may be useful in other situations.
Many thanks to Howard, my mentor for this GSoC project.

Very stupid mistake in own new generic ID lib_link function, that would try
to link ID pointers for all data-blocks, not only those actually needing it.
This introduces object mode tagging for data which hasn't yet been
written back to the ID data.
Now when selecting other sculpt objects, the original objects data is
flushed back to the ID before writing a memfile undo step.
This is not actually fixing the real issue here, PackedFile structs are
never supposed to have a NULL pointer - and in that monster .blend file,
the pointer is not NULL, but the actual data chunk has been lost
somehow, so it gets NULL during read process.
Very unlikely we ever know how such corrupted .blend was created though
(there's probably a fair chance that this is not even due to a bug in
Blender, but rather a glitch in filesystem or something).
So for now, ensure at read time that we get a coherent state (i.e.
remove any read PackedFile that would have a NULL data field), and add a
few asserts in relevant code to check we never get NULL data pointer
here.
This mostly happens automatically anyway since there is usually not enough
time left over for it. But when it does it happen it breaks partial redraw,
and may also have a negative impact on responsiveness.

These were only strictly valid for texture space calculation, don't store them
since they should not be used after that. Only store a flag to indicate if the
auto texture space has been evaluated.
In the future it might make sense to store bounding boxes at the mesh level to
speed up bounding box computation for multiple objects using the same mesh, but
then it will need to be implemented differently.
The problem was that the object and collection pointers in Base and
LayerCollection would get lost of file read. Normally such ID pointers would
be resolved by pointing to an ID_ID placeholder which has the datablock name,
and then replacing it will the real datablock. However ID_ID is only written
for directly linked datablocks.
This adds the concept of an indirectly linked datablock with a weak reference
to it. For this we write an ID_ID_WEAK_REF code, which is a reference that
will only be resolved if the datablock was read for another reason.

When enabled prefetching(preview panel>view settings), a pernament running job
is created, that will render frames in the background until the cache is full.
If the cache is not filled fast enough, prefetch job suspends itself
at the last moment and will wait until it has chance to "catch up".
Effectively this will decouple rendering to separate thread, so rendering
itself is a bit faster.
Cache recycling behavior will be changed to "free furthest frame to the left
of playhead if possible, otherwise rightmost frame".

This change allows the user to select a renderpass in the 3d viewport.
Added support for external renderers to extend the `View3DShading` struct.
This way Blender doesn't need to know the features an external render engine wants to support.
Note that the View3DShading is also available in the scene->display.shading; although this is
supported, it does not make sense for render engines to put something here as it is really
scene/workbench related.
Currently cycles assumes that it always needs to calculate the combined pass; it ignores the
`pass_flag` in KernelFilm. We could optimize this but that was not in scope of this change

The specifc bug here came fro; some IDProperties ID pointer storing
references to workspaces.
But that was actually a main loophole in that 'unndoing data while
keeping same UI' process, as we never know who might store a pointer to
one of those datablocks that we want to keep the 'old' version off.
It might actually be ever more needed when we start undoing (changing)
only the IDs actually modified in an undo step...
Notes:
* While not ideal, I think we can afford an extra looping over the whole
Main DB here... Remapping process in itself is fairly cheap, thanks to
the hashes.
* This commit is considered rather risky (especially thanks to 'private'
IDs), think it should work fine for now, unless some IDPointers start
storing references to private IDs...
Once D5559 is in, we shall do another pass here, probably also forbids
assigning private IDs to IDProperties, etc.
