This patch implements the necessary changes to the GPU module that are
needed by the realtime compositor.
A new function GPU_material_from_callbacks was added to construct a GPU
material from a number of callbacks. A callback to construct the
material graph by adding and linking the necessary GPU material nodes.
And the existing code generator callback. This essentially allows the
construction of GPU materials independent of node trees and without the
need to do any node tree localization.
A new composite source output to the code generator was added. This
output contains the serialization of nodes that are tagged with
GPU_NODE_TAG_COMPOSITOR, which are the nodes linked to the newly added
composite output links.
Two new GPU uniform setters were added for int2 and matrix3 types.
Shader create info now supports generated compute sources.
Shaders starting with gpu_shader_compositor are now considered part of
the shader library.
Additionally, two fixes were implemented. First, GPU setter node
de-duplication now appropriately increments the reference count of the
references resources. Second, unlinked sockets now get their value from
their associated GPU node stack instead of the socket itself.

This is to make the codegen and shading nodes object type agnostic. This
is essential for flexibility of the engine to use the nodetree as it see
fits.
The essential volume attributes struct properties are moved to the
`GPUMaterialAttribute` which see its final input name set on creation.
The binding process is centralized into `draw_volume.cc` to avoid
duplicating the code between multiple engines. It mimics the hair attributes
process.
Volume object grid transforms and other per object uniforms are packed into
one UBO per object. The grid transform is now based on object which simplify
the matrix preparations.
This also gets rid of the double transforms and use object info orco factors
for volume objects.
Tagging @brecht because he did the initial implementation of Volume Grids.
This commit removes all EEVEE specific code from the `gpu_shader_material*.glsl`
files. It defines a clear interface to evaluate the closure nodes leaving
more flexibility to the render engine.
Some of the long standing workaround are fixed:
- bump mapping support is no longer duplicating a lot of node and is instead
compiled into a function call.
- bump rewiring to Normal socket is no longer needed as we now use a global
`g_data.N` for that.
Closure sampling with upstread weight eval is now supported if the engine needs
it.
This also makes all the material GLSL sources use `GPUSource` for better
debugging experience. The `GPUFunction` parsing now happens in `GPUSource`
creation.
The whole `GPUCodegen` now uses the `ShaderCreateInfo` and is object type
agnostic. Is has also been rewritten in C++.
This patch changes a view behavior for EEVEE:
- Mix shader node factor imput is now clamped.
- Tangent Vector displacement behavior is now matching cycles.
- The chosen BSDF used for SSR might change.
- Hair shading may have very small changes on very large hairs when using hair
polygon stripes.
- ShaderToRGB node will remove any SSR and SSS form a shader.
- SSS radius input now is no longer a scaling factor but defines an average
radius. The SSS kernel "shape" (radii) are still defined by the socket default
values.
Appart from the listed changes no other regressions are expected.

This patch adds support for AOVs in EEVEE. AOV Outputs can be defined in the
render pass tab and used in shader materials. Both Object and World based
shaders are supported. The AOV can be previewed in the viewport using the
renderpass selector in the shading popover.
AOV names that conflict with other AOVs are automatically corrected. AOV
conflicts with render passes get a warning icon. The reason behind this is that
changing render engines/passes can change the conflict, but you might not notice
it. Changing this automatically would also make the materials incorrect, so best
to leave this to the user.
**Implementation**
The patch adds a copies the AOV structures of Cycles into Blender. The goal is
that the Cycles will use Blenders AOV defintions. In the Blender kernel
(`layer.c`) the logic of these structures are implemented.
The GLSL shader of any GPUMaterial can hold multiple outputs (the main output
and the AOV outputs) based on the renderPassUBO the right output is selected.
This selection uses an hash that encodes the AOV structure. The full AOV needed
to be encoded when actually drawing the material pass as the AOV type changes
the behavior of the AOV. This isn't known yet when the GLSL is compiled.
**Future Developments**
* The AOV definitions in the render layer panel isn't shared with Cycles.
Cycles should be migrated to use the same viewlayer aovs. During a previous
attempt this failed as the AOV validation in cycles and in Blender have
implementation differences what made it crash when an aov name was invalid.
This could be fixed by extending the external render engine API.
* Add support to Cycles to render AOVs in the 3d viewport.
* Use a drop down list for selecting AOVs in the AOV Output node.
* Give user feedback when multiple AOV output nodes with the same AOV name
exists in the same shader.
* Fix viewing single channel images in the image editor [T83314]
* Reduce viewport render time by only render needed draw passes. [T83316]

This patch allows the user to type a property name into the
Attribute node, which will then output the value of the property
for each individual object, allowing to e.g. customize shaders
by object without duplicating the shader.
In order to make supporting this easier for Eevee, it is necessary
to explicitly choose whether the attribute is varying or uniform
via a dropdown option of the Attribute node. The dropdown also
allows choosing whether instancing should be taken into account.
The Cycles design treats all attributes as one common namespace,
so the Blender interface converts the enum to a name prefix that
can't be entered using keyboard.
In Eevee, the attributes are provided to the shader via a UBO indexed
with resource_id, similar to the existing Object Info data. Unlike it,
however, it is necessary to maintain a separate buffer for every
requested combination of attributes.
This is done using a hash table with the attribute set as the key,
as it is expected that technically different but similar materials
may use the same set of attributes. In addition, in order to minimize
wasted memory, a sparse UBO pool is implemented, so that chunks that
don't contain any data don't have to be allocated.
The back-end Cycles code is already refactored and committed by Brecht.

This replaces header include guards with `#pragma once`.
A couple of include guards are not removed yet (e.g. `__RNA_TYPES_H__`),
because they are used in other places.

Only the volume drawing part is really finished and exposed to the user. Hair
plugs into the existing hair rendering code and is fairly straightforward. The
pointcloud drawing is a hack using overlays rather than Eevee and workbench.
The most tricky part for volume rendering is the case where each volume grid
has a different transform, which requires an additional matrix in the shader
and non-trivial logic in Eevee volume drawing. In the common case were all the
transforms match we don't use the additional per-grid matrix in the shader.

This has no user visible impact yet since smoke volumes only support a fixed
set of attributes, but will become important with the new volume object.
For GPU shader compilation, volume grids are now handled separately from
image textures. They are somewhere between a vertex attribute and an image
texture, basically an attribute that is stored as a texture.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D6952
This further separates requested attributes and textures from the actual
node graph, that can be retained after the graph has been compiled and
freed. It makes it easier to add volume grids as a native concept, which
sits somewhere between an attribute and a texture.
It also adds explicit link types for UDIM tile mapping, rather than
relying on fairly hidden logic.
