This makes a lot of shader node wiring code less complex.
This only add the flatten mechanism (which fixes T69672).
~~Cleanup to remove the complexity in ntree_shader_relink_displacement,
ntree_shader_bump_branches and ntree_shader_tag_nodes will be commited
separately.~~(already included)
The code is only added for shader nodes for now but could be exported to
other internal nodetree types in the future.

We basically duplicate the height map branch plugged into the bump node,
and tag each node in each branch as dx/dy/ref using `branch_tag`.
Then we add a one pixel offset on the texture coordinates if the node is
tagged as dx or dy.
The dx/dy branches are plugged into (new) hidden sockets on the bump node.
This match cycles bump better but have a performance impact. Also, complex
nodetrees can now become instruction limited and not compile anymore.

Add Multiply, Divide, Project, Reflect, Distance, Length, Scale, Snap,
Floor, Ceil, Modulo, Fraction, Absolute, Minimum, and Maximum operators
to the Vector Math node. The Value output has been removed from operators
whose output is a vector, and the other way around. All of those removals
has been handled properly in versioning code.
The patch doesn't include tests for the new operators. Tests will be added
in a later patch.

Previously displacement relinking was trying to be smart and seems to be
broken in some cases. This fixes all cases by brute force.
We copy the whole branch linked to the displacement socket and tag it
accordingly. Then we only relink the nodes that are not tagged.
Moreover, we bypass bump nodes inside the dispacement trees so that the
resulting bump is the same as cycles.
Fix T66000 EEVEE: Unexpected results when displacement interact with nodegroups
On file read we need to update group nodes in case the group they refer to
has changed its inputs and outputs. This had O(n^2) time complexity and was
updating all datablocks even if they did not change.
We were already getting the designated output node in
'ntreeGPUMaterialNodes()' but this wasnt used in 'ntreeExecGPUNodes()',
instead whatever node was tagged NODE_DO_OUTPUT was executed.
note: this is just the bare minimum to fix the bug, other improvements
previously done in D4482 might follow as a separate commit.

This was already supported for Cycles shader nodes, but now also works for
Eevee and compositing nodes. Instead of a generic NodeCustomGroup, now
there is ShaderNodeCustomGroup and CompositorNodeCustomGroup that can be
subclassed and registered.

User counting now happens before init() and after free() methods, so that
the ID users are in a valid state when Python might modify them. ID user
counting was moved into node.c and simplified.
Patch by Miguel with further refactoring by Brecht. Ref D4370.
This is a hacky fix. We just convert the int as a float and use it as such.
This works ok for small int but will not be correct for numbers greater
than 4194303.
Correct support would require deeper change for UBO creation and socket
conversion.
The issue was that `bNodeSocketValueVector` and `bNodeSocketValueRGBA`
don't store the value at the same location in the struct.
I kept the cases for `SOCK_VECTOR` and `SOCK_RGBA` completely separate
for now, because they only share code by coincidence and not because
they are actually the same. Eventually there could be a "Vector Input"
node similar to the "RGB" node.

Works as expected and mimics Cycles behavior.
The patch is a bit hacky: In order to not touch the lower level function,
we search for the active output inside groups (recursively) and the first
valid one is then copied (or extracted if you want) in the previous parent
nodetree. So we recursively extract the output node back to the main
nodetree while preserving the links through the nodegroups interfaces.
This way everything works as expected in gpu tree evaluation and bsdf
tagging.

This is often invalid, outdated or misleading

It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
The hang was due to the nodes being "evaluated" for every incomming link.
Solution: only evaluate once per nodetree.
Also merge the tagging of SSS and SSR into one traversal only.
Node group inputs should behave like cycles now.
----
We create dummy nodes that contains the default values for the nodegroup
inputs and link them to the sockets. This way the uniform buffer gathering
function can read them.
But we also need to disconnect all the internal links to sockets that have
hidden values. Theses sockets must not get the values from the nodegroup
input sockets if there is no link to them otherwise we get broken results
(i.e.: normals for a bsdf node).
This makes it possible to have a single shading nodetree that contains
separate Cycles and Eevee shaders. By default the target is set to All
so shaders are shared.
Both the scene and workspace had an active view layer, and it was confusing
which settings were being used or displayed where. Now we always have one,
so there is no mismatch.
The "View Layers" tab in the properties editor is now "View Layer", no longer
showing a list of layers. Instead view layers can be added and removed with
the workspace view layer selector. They are also listed and selectable in the
outliner.
Single layer rendering uses the active view layer from the workspace.
This fixes bugs where the wrong active view layer was used, but more places
remain that are wrong and are now using the first view layer in the scene.
These are all marked with BKE_view_layer_context_active_PLACEHOLDER.
Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
ViewRender was removed, which means we can't get the render engine for files
saved in 2.8. We assume that any files saved in 2.8 were intended to use Eevee
and set the engine to that.
A fix included with this is that .blend thumbails now draw with Clay mode,
and never Eevee or Cycles. These were drawn with solid mode in 2.7, and should
be very fast and not e.g. load heavy image textures.
