Convention was not to but after discussion on 918941483f we agree its
best to change the convention.
Names now mostly follow RNA.
Some exceptions:
- Use 'nodetrees' instead of 'nodegroups'
since the struct is called NodeTree.
- Use 'gpencils' instead of 'grease_pencil'
since 'gpencil' is a common abbreviation in the C code.
Other exceptions:
- Leave 'wm' as it's a list of one.
- Leave 'ipo' as is for versioning.
We already have different storages for cddata of verts, edges etc.,
'simply' do the same for the mask flags we use all around Blender code
to request some data, or limit some operation to some layers, etc.
Reason we need this is that some cddata types (like Normals) are
actually shared between verts/polys/loops, and we don’t want to generate
clnors everytime we request vnors!
As a side note, this also does final fix to T59338, which was the
trigger for this patch (need to request computed loop normals for
another mesh than evaluated one).

BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.

This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
Will document the new options in release notes, then in manual.
Still a bit of work to do on the bulging shape that appears
on cube corners if using arc inner miters, but will do that later.
Also need to do something smarter in clamp overlap.
Harden normals causes normal splitting, which will not give the
appearance expected due to autosmooth unless some edges are sharpened,
so this change fixes that. Also bevel tool will turn on autosmooth
if not already on if hardening normals.
Move the bevel hardening code all into bmesh_bevel.c.
Based on user feedback, rewrote the bevel hardening algorithm
to be more what users want.
Based on user feedback, changed the UI, removing some
not-useful options. Now hardening normals while beveling
is enabled by a simple checkbox.
Now setting face strength gives options for which faces
get their face strength set.
These changes are necessary. Need to mark vertices of edges passed
in geom; also the normals.out slot has a custom element type, not
ELEM, so need to prevent attempt by python code to convert it to
an elem. But this leaves a memory leak. I will rework code to not
use normals.out slot at all, but that's a bigger fix.
Now there is a crash in a different place (GPU code). Think that if
using Op on its own (instead of from edbm_bevel_calc, there needs to
be a dependency graph update and maybe more?
Second part of the fix: do not try at all to compute normals in degenerated
geometry. Just loss of time and potential issues later with weird
invalid computed values.
