The Asset Browser is still considered an experimental feature right now. But it
can be enabled by default for alpha builds, to get further testing and
feedback. It will hopefully be a non-experimental feature by the end of bcon1.
This is done in agreement with Dalai.
For the most part, this just adds boilerplate code for volume support in geometry nodes:
* Add `VolumeComponent` next to `MeshComponent`, etc.
* Support `VolumeComponent` in depsgraph object iterator.
Furthermore, I added initial volume support in a few nodes:
* The Object Info node outputs an object instance when the input is a volume object
(that will be the same for mesh objects soonish, to avoid copies).
* Support transforming a `VolumeComponent` in the Transform node.
* Support the `VolumeComponent` in Join Geometry nodes, but only when just one of the
inputs has a volume component for now.
Right now, there is no way to create a `VolumeComponent`, because the Object Info node
outputs an object instance. The `VolumeComponent` will be necessary for upcoming nodes,
which will generate volumes on the fly.
Viewport selection does not work correctly with `VolumeComponent`s currently. I don't
know why that is. That can be figured out a bit later, once we can actually create
new volumes in geometry nodes.

This commit moves runtime-only variables from the `SpaceNode`
DNA struct to a private struct in `node_intern.h`. Before, it was hard
to tell which data needed to be saved in files, this should make it
more clear.
Node that the `edittree` field is basically a runtime variable, since
it's set from the `treepath` list on read, but moving it would require
some more invasive changes that I don't think are worth it right now.
Also, not all of the moved variables were explicitly cleared on read--
`aspect` is set at the start of a redraw, `cursor` is set in a region
callback, and `recalc` was used as an update flag.

Things like pointers to particle systems, or softbody data being stored
outside of its modifier, make it impossible for internal modifier copy
data code to be self-contained currently. It requires extra processing.
In existing code this was handled in several different places, in
several ways, and alltogether fairly inconsistently. Some cases were
even not properly handled, causing e.g. crashes as in T82945.
This commit addresses those issues by:
* Adding comments about the hackish/unsafe parts `psys` implies when
copying some modifier data (since we need to ensure particle system
copying and remapping of those pointers separately).
* Adding as-best-as-possible handling of those cases to
`BKE_object_copy_modifier` (note that it remains fragile, but is
expected to behave 'good enough' in any practical usecase).
* Remove special handling for specific editor code
(`copy_or_reuse_particle_system`). This should never have been
accepted in ED code area, and is now handled by
`BKE_object_copy_modifier`.
* Factorize copying of the whole modifier stack into new
`BKE_object_modifier_stack_copy`, now used by both `object_copy_data`
and `BKE_object_link_modifiers`.
Note that this implies that `BKE_object_copy_modifier` and
`BKE_object_copy_gpencil_modifier` are now to be used exclusively to
copy single modifiers. Full modifier stack copy should always use
`BKE_object_modifier_stack_copy` instead.

By design the modified object transformations should still work and
affect the geometry nodes results. The current behaviour, however, would
make the geometry from the object info to not be affected by the
modified object transformations. This patch changes that by default.
In a similar fashion the Location, Rotation and Scale sockets outputs
should be aware of whether the output should be in the global space or in the
space of the nodetree.
To solve this, the patch introduces a new transformation space "enum"
where users can pick "Original" or "Relative" space.
Original
--------
Output the geometry relative to the input object transform, and the
location, rotation and scale relative to the world origin.
Relative
--------
Bring the input object geometry, location, rotation and scale into the
modified object maintaining the relative position between the two objects in
the scene.
Relative space violates a bit the design of the nodetree. The geometry in this
case is transformed so that moving the modified object doesn't interfere with
the geometry. This is particularly useful for the boolean node for instance.
"Original" is the default space, but old files are set to "Relative" for
backwards compatibility.

Copy the smooth setting when filling in curve caps.
For drawing this doesn't change behavior as a single normal is used
for all faces.
The difference may be noticed when converting to a mesh or with
modifiers applied.
Bevel caps always had incorrect normals, causing display glitches
in some cases.
It seems this never worked properly (at least 2.79 also had this bug).
Use the projection vector as the normal.
These functions with many arguments can be unwieldy. Aside from the obvious issues
with rewriting the list of arguments and the opportunities for error and frustration
that presents, the long list of arguments make these systems hard to change. So when
an argument should be added, someone might skip that and add some hack instead.
So, as proposed in T73586#1037210, this patch instead uses a "params" struct for
each of these callbacks.
- Use param argument for `ARegionType.listener`
- Remove unused window field in region listener
- Use param argument for `SpaceType.listener`
- Use params struct for `ARegionType.message_subscribe`

The double quaternion blending method in addition to the deformation
matrix of each bone requires their rest matrices. For ordinary bones
this literally should use the bone rest matrix without any ambiguity.
However, it was also using the bone rest matrix for all of its
B-Bone segments, which is incorrect and causes strange deformation
in some cases involving extreme non-uniform scale, especially
at boundaries between different B-Bones. There is also a similar
known issue that happens with scale at bending joints, and this
fix reduces the distortion when both bones are B-Bones.
This changes both the Armature modifier and the Armature constraint
to use the actual segment rest matrices. Unlike bones, these can have
scale even in rest pose, so normalization is required.

Average selected tracks into the new one. This can be used to improve
stability of tracking on blurry or non-very-sharp feature shapes.
Averaging happens for all position, pattern corners and search area.
Disabled markers do not take effect on averaging. Keyframed flag is
copied from source.
Gaps in the source tracks will be linearly interpolated, to reduce
result track jump. Note that this only applies to gaps "inbetween".
This means that if an input track doesn't have markers in the
beginning/end of it, there is nothing to interpolate with and the
result track will jump.
Available from the Track panel, under the Merge category.

There are two main things.
First, remove the marker index caching. Thins makes it possible to
safely use function from a threaded environment.
Second, replace linear search with binary search, which speeds up
random lookup.
There is no measurable difference in the stabilization which had a
comment about caching nature of track lookup. The random lookup
complexity changed from O(N) to O(log N). In practice this also
unlikely to be measurable, but thread-safety worth it.
When using grease pencil for drawing Storyboards, it's very common to require a transform of the layers. This transform can be done using the offset modifier, but in some cases, the scene requires a lot of modifiers and makes the file hard to work.
This new feature adds a transforms Location, Rotation and Scale at Layer level, and allows to transform the layer without using a modifier, keeping the scene more clean.

The issue was that the mesh shared its vertex weights with the
original mesh (to reduce memory consumption). The solution is
to make a local copy of the vertex weights in this case.
Our beloved shapekeys are 'virtual' overrides, they need special
snowflake treatment here as well.
They do not have any override data, from override perspective they are
considered as mere sub-data from their owning ID (mesh, lattice, etc.).
Therefore, we should not copy override data from them, but instead
properly flag those new IDs as `LIB_EMBEDDED_DATA_LIB_OVERRIDE`.
Found while investigating T84373.

This commit adds the ability to provide a default value to
`attribute_try_get_for_output` and uses it for the `Point Scale` node,
which is important because the node uses multiplication.
The idea is to keep "name-specific" functionality in nodes rather than in
the attribute API, otherwise the complexity will be hard to keep track of.
So this fix doesn't apply to the Attribute Vector Math node, but hopfully
that is okay since that's now a lower level node for this purpose anyway.

If the mesh has any corner or point attributes (e.g. vertex weights or
uv maps), those attributes will now be available on the generated points
as well.
Other domains can be supported as well. I just did not implement those yet,

The clarity is more for consistency with the nla domain() processing
function names and the core struct member name it stores the results
in, "valid". The name "domain", which implies a function can operate
on it, seems more natural than "valid", which implies something is
wrong if false.

Note that uv layers still can't be accessed with nodes, because those
only access attributes on the point domain currently, while uv data
is stored per corner. Implicit domain conversion hasn't been
implemented yet.
This fixes the behavior of some nodes when the same attribute
name is used for input and output. If both attributes have a
different type, they can't exist at the same time. Therefore,
the input attribute has to be removed in order to create the
output attribute.
Previously, the input attribute was remove before it was used
in any computations. Now, the output is written to a temporary
buffer and only later saved in the geometry component. This
allows both attributes to coexist within the node.
The temporary attribute is only create when necessary. The
normal case without name collisions still works the same
as before.
