This is the unification of all overlays into one overlay engine as described in T65347.
I went over all the code making it more future proof with less hacks and removing old / not relevent parts.
Goals / Acheivements:
- Remove internal shader usage (only drw shaders)
- Remove viewportSize and viewportSizeInv and put them in gloabl ubo
- Fixed some drawing issues: Missing probe option and Missing Alt+B clipping of some shader
- Remove old (legacy) shaders dependancy (not using view UBO).
- Less shader variation (less compilation time at first load and less patching needed for vulkan)
- removed some geom shaders when I could
- Remove static e_data (except shaders storage where it is OK)
- Clear the way to fix some anoying limitations (dithered transparency, background image compositing etc...)
- Wireframe drawing now uses the same batching capabilities as workbench & eevee (indirect drawing).
- Reduced complexity, removed ~3000 Lines of code in draw (also removed a lot of unused shader in GPU).
- Post AA to avoid complexity and cost of MSAA.
Remaining issues:
- ~~Armature edits, overlay toggles, (... others?) are not refreshing viewport after AA is complete~~
- FXAA is not the best for wires, maybe investigate SMAA
- Maybe do something more temporally stable for AA.
- ~~Paint overlays are not working with AA.~~
- ~~infront objects are difficult to select.~~
- ~~the infront wires sometimes goes through they solid counterpart (missing clear maybe?) (toggle overlays on-off when using infront+wireframe overlay in solid shading)~~
Note: I made some decision to change slightly the appearance of some objects to simplify their drawing. Namely the empty arrows end (which is now hollow/wire) and distance points of the cameras/spots being done by lines.

The object color property is added as an additional output in
the Object Info node.

The draw manager used to determine if the view transform should be
applied by checking if the scene was not rendered to an offscreen image.
As the sequencer and texture painting needs to render to an offscreen
image with the view transform applied we need to separate the
`do_color_management` from the `is_image_render`.

A lot of drawcalls don't use the object's properties and don't
need a dedicated DRWCallState. We allocate a unique one at
the begining and use it for all calls that uses the default
unit matrix.
This will have multiple benefit.
TODO detail benefits (culling, more explicit, handling of clipping planes)
For now the view usage is wrapped to make changes needed more progressive.
Adding a constant yields quadratic time complexity which can
have quite a big impact on some scenes.
I used the file from T64901 for testing.
In the test file, the time it took to execute `wm_draw_update`
changed from `0.60s` to `0.51s`.

This is a big change that cleanup a lot of confusing code.
- The instancing/batching data buffer distribution in draw_instance_data.c.
- The selection & drawing code in draw_manager_exec.c
- Prety much every non-meshes object drawing (object_mode.c).
Most of the changes are just renaming but there still a chance a typo might
have sneek through.
The Batching/Instancing Shading groups are replace by DRWCallBuffers. This
is cleaner and conceptually more in line with what a DRWShadingGroup should
be.
There is still some little confusion in draw_common.c where some function
takes shgroup as input and some don't.
This is in order to have VAO handled by thoses batches instead of using a
common VAO. Even if the VAO has no importance in these case using a batch
will help when transitioning to Vulkan.
This is in order to create less shading group when using duplis.
Data for dupli objects keep in draw manager state until the source object
changes so retrieval is fast.
Note that this system could be extended to all meshes.
release_texture_slots() and release_ubo_slots() were one hotspot when
drawing taking ~9% of total CPU counters for no reason.
This was because of the loops using GPU_max_textures that was overkill and
slow.
Replace those by a simple 64bit bitwise OR operation.
The wrong transformation was used. Add a new matrix specially for this case.
This also fix the Node texture coordinate that was suffering the same issue.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
