This is a new implementation of the draw manager using modern
rendering practices and GPU driven culling.
This only ports features that are not considered deprecated or to be
removed.
The old DRW API is kept working along side this new one, and does not
interfeer with it. However this needed some more hacking inside the
draw_view_lib.glsl. At least the create info are well separated.
The reviewer might start by looking at `draw_pass_test.cc` to see the
API in usage.
Important files are `draw_pass.hh`, `draw_command.hh`,
`draw_command_shared.hh`.
In a nutshell (for a developper used to old DRW API):
- `DRWShadingGroups` are replaced by `Pass<T>::Sub`.
- Contrary to DRWShadingGroups, all commands recorded inside a pass or
sub-pass (even binds / push_constant / uniforms) will be executed in order.
- All memory is managed per object (except for Sub-Pass which are managed
by their parent pass) and not from draw manager pools. So passes "can"
potentially be recorded once and submitted multiple time (but this is
not really encouraged for now). The only implicit link is between resource
lifetime and `ResourceHandles`
- Sub passes can be any level deep.
- IMPORTANT: All state propagate from sub pass to subpass. There is no
state stack concept anymore. Ensure the correct render state is set before
drawing anything using `Pass::state_set()`.
- The drawcalls now needs a `ResourceHandle` instead of an `Object *`.
This is to remove any implicit dependency between `Pass` and `Manager`.
This was a huge problem in old implementation since the manager did not
know what to pull from the object. Now it is explicitly requested by the
engine.
- The pases need to be submitted to a `draw::Manager` instance which can
be retrieved using `DRW_manager_get()` (for now).
Internally:
- All object data are stored in contiguous storage buffers. Removing a lot
of complexity in the pass submission.
- Draw calls are sorted and visibility tested on GPU. Making more modern
culling and better instancing usage possible in the future.
- Unit Tests have been added for regression testing and avoid most API
breakage.
- `draw::View` now contains culling data for all objects in the scene
allowing caching for multiple views.
- Bounding box and sphere final setup is moved to GPU.
- Some global resources locations have been hardcoded to reduce complexity.
What is missing:
- ~~Workaround for lack of gl_BaseInstanceARB.~~ Done
- ~~Object Uniform Attributes.~~ Done (Not in this patch)
- Workaround for hardware supporting a maximum of 8 SSBO.

This is a complete rewrite of the draw debug drawing module in C++.
It uses `GPUStorageBuf` to store the data to be drawn and use indirect
drawing. This makes it easier to do a mirror API for GPU shaders.
The C++ API class is exposed through `draw_debug.hh` and should be used
when possible in new code.
However, the debug drawing will not work for platform not yet supporting
`GPUStorageBuf`. Also keep in mind that this module must only be used
in debug build for performance and compatibility reasons.
In order to allow GLSL Cross Compilation across platforms, expose in
Python the `GPUShaderCreateInfo` strategy as detailed in
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/EEVEE_%26_Viewport/GPU_Module/GLSL_Cross_Compilation
The new features can be listed as follows:
```
>>> gpu.types.GPUShaderCreateInfo.
define(
fragment_out(
fragment_source(
push_constant(
sampler(
typedef_source(
uniform_buf(
vertex_in(

This is because the inheritance is not done before checking if the shader
should be statically compiled. Also some inheritance scheme
might have intermediate permutation that are not compilable.
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.

Source files are now only referenced and listed for the driver to ingest.
Shader sources now includes generated data if any.
Also cleans up gpu_shader_dependency_get_builtins casts.
This includes multiple commits:
- Fix crash when using std::cerr for error output
- Add auto_resource_location which overrides all resources location (not vert input)
- Improve codestyle of error reporting.
- Add type conversion to string and to `eGPUType`
- Add comparison operator (will be used for hash collision resolution).
- Add members related to generated code (codegen)
- Scan all static shaders for builtins on startup.
- Add possibility to manually add builtins.
- `ShaderCreateInfo.builtins_` contain builtins from all stages.
This opt-in functionnality enabled developper keep track of unused
resources present in the `GPUShaderCreateInfo` descriptors of their
shaders.
The output is pretty noisy at the moment so we do not enforce its usage.
Also adds a few things to GPUShader for easily create shaders.
Heavy usage of macros to compose the createInfo and avoid
duplications and copy paste bugs.
This makes the link between the shader request functions
(in workbench_shader.cc) and the actual createInfo a bit
obscure since the names are composed and not searchable.

Some drivers/glsl compilers will not warn about multiple resources using
the same binding, creating silent errors.
This patch checks for this case and outputs a descriptive error message if
a particular createInfo merge error is founds.
Other validation can be added later.
This merge the description into one struct only that can be more easily
copied during `finalize()`.
The in and out layout parameters are better named and extended with the
invocation count (with fallback support)
This is a first part of the Shader Create Info system could be.
A shader create info provides a way to define shader structure, resources
and interfaces. This makes for a quick way to provide backend agnostic
binding informations while also making shader variations easy to declare.
- Clear source input (only one file). Cleans up the GPU api since we can create a
shader from one descriptor
- Resources and interfaces are generated by the backend (much simpler than parsing).
- Bindings are explicit from position in the array.
- GPUShaderInterface becomes a trivial translation of enums and string copy.
- No external dependency to third party lib.
- Cleaner code, less fragmentation of resources in several libs.
- Easy to modify / extend at runtime.
- no parser involve, very easy to code.
- Does not hold any data, can be static and kept on disc.
- Could hold precompiled bytecode for static shaders.
This also includes a new global dependency system.
GLSL shaders can include other sources by using #pragma BLENDER_REQUIRE(...).
This patch already migrated several builtin shaders. Other shaders should be migrated
one at a time, and could be done inside master.
There is a new compile directive `WITH_GPU_SHADER_BUILDER` this is an optional
directive for linting shaders to increase turn around time.
What is remaining:
- pyGPU API {T94975}
- Migration of other shaders. This could be a community effort.
