Previously, this function would expect a callback function as parameter.
This behavior is now in Map.lookup_or_add_cb. The new version just
takes the key and value directly.
This also renames `MutableArrayRef` to `MutableSpan`.
The name "Span" works better, because `std::span` will provide
similar functionality in C++20. Furthermore, a shorter, more
concise name for a common data structure is nice.
The main focus here was to improve the docs significantly. Furthermore,
I reimplemented `Set`, `Map` and `VectorSet`. They are now (usually)
faster, simpler and more customizable. I also rewrote `Stack` to make
it more efficient by avoiding unnecessary copies.
Thanks to everyone who helped with constructive feedback.

This adds a new `CPPType` that encapsulates information about how to handle
instances of a specific data type. This is necessary for the function evaluation
system, which will be used to evaluate most of the particle node trees.
Furthermore, this adds an `IndexMask` class which offers a surprisingly useful
abstraction over an array containing unsigned integers. It makes two assumptions
about the underlying integer array:
* The integers are in ascending order.
* There are no duplicates.
`IndexMask` will be used to "select" certain particles that will be
processed in a data-oriented way. Sometimes, operations don't have to
be applied to all particles, but only some, those that are in the indexed by
the `IndexMask`. The two limitations imposed by an `IndexMask` allow for
better performance.

interp_weights_poly_v2 would have too large epsilon values for small
polygons. To solve this we now calculate the appropriate epsilon value
so it can gracefully handle big and small values.
To make sure there was no regression, these changes were tested with the
files in T36105, T31581. Also with a surface deform modifier test file
attached in the differential below.

Add TBB::flow graph scheduling to BLI_task.
Using flow graphs, a graph of nodes (tasks) and links can be defined.
Work can flow though the graph. During this process the execution of the nodes will be
scheduled among the available threads.
We are planning to use this to improve the threading in the draw manager.
The implemented API is still limited it only supports sequential flows. Joins and buffers
are not supported. We could eventually support them as part of an CPP API. These features
from uses compile time templates and are hard to make a clean C-API for this.

Previously this would be enabled when threads were used, but threads are now
basically always in use so there is no point. Further, this is only needed for
guarded allocation with --debug-memory which is not performance critical.
When packing the image the height of the tile was checked to the width
of the packing area. This resulted that the tile was ignored.

In some cases blender could freeze. When threads are blocked (waiting for other tasks completion) the scheduler can let the thread perform a different task. If this task wants a write-lock for something that was read-locked in the stack a dead lock will happen.
For task pools every task is isolated. For range tasks the inner loop will be isolated. The implementation is limited as isolation in TBB uses functors which are tricky to add to a C API. We decided to start with a simple and adapt were we need to.
During testing we came to this setup as it was reliable (we weren't able to let it freeze or crash) and didn't had noticeable performance impact.

T76602 reported a crash with the exception address being 0,
this stack naturally could not be walked and no backtrace was
reported for the main thread. Which would have been helpful.
This change modifies the behaviour of the crash handler to ignore
the context record if it contains no useful information and
walk the current stack to get some information about what lead
to the crash.
Background task pools would not restart threads if reused multiple times,
thanks to Jeroen for identifying the cause of this problem.
