Previously, the function names were stored in `std::string` and were often
created dynamically (especially when the function just output a constant).
This resulted in a lot of overhead.
Now the function name is just a `const char *` that should be statically
allocated. This is good enough for the majority of cases. If a multi-function
needs a more dynamic name, it can override the `MultiFunction::debug_name`
method.
In my test file with >400,000 simple math nodes, the execution time improves from
3s to 1s.

This is a bit similar to rBb7260ca4c9f4b7618c9c214f1270e31d6ed9886b.
Sometimes a group node may not reference a node group
because it was linked and can't be found.
Separating geometry nodes into a new library will make it
easier to improve compile times with features like unity
builds and precompiled headers.

Previously, node types had a callback that creates internal links. Pretty
much all nodes used the same callback though. The exceptions are the
reroute node (which probably shouldn't be mutable anyway) and some
input/output nodes that are not mutable.
Removing the callback helps with D13246, because it makes it easier
to reason about which internal links are created and when they change.
In the future, the internal links should be part of the node declaration.
This cleans up part of the code that still set the flag manually. Also, this
change helps with D13246 because it makes it easier to tag the node
tree as changed when the availability of a socket changed.
This commit contains a few mostly-related changes to this node:
- Add a warning when retrieving the geometry from the modifier object.
- Only create the output geometry when it is necessary.
- Decompose transform matrices in a more friendly way.
- Use default return callbacks like other newer nodes.

Goals of this refactor:
* Simplify creating virtual arrays.
* Simplify passing virtual arrays around.
* Simplify converting between typed and generic virtual arrays.
* Reduce memory allocations.
As a quick reminder, a virtual arrays is a data structure that behaves like an
array (i.e. it can be accessed using an index). However, it may not actually
be stored as array internally. The two most important implementations
of virtual arrays are those that correspond to an actual plain array and those
that have the same value for every index. However, many more
implementations exist for various reasons (interfacing with legacy attributes,
unified iterator over all points in multiple splines, ...).
With this refactor the core types (`VArray`, `GVArray`, `VMutableArray` and
`GVMutableArray`) can be used like "normal values". They typically live
on the stack. Before, they were usually inside a `std::unique_ptr`. This makes
passing them around much easier. Creation of new virtual arrays is also
much simpler now due to some constructors. Memory allocations are
reduced by making use of small object optimization inside the core types.
Previously, `VArray` was a class with virtual methods that had to be overridden
to change the behavior of a the virtual array. Now,`VArray` has a fixed size
and has no virtual methods. Instead it contains a `VArrayImpl` that is
similar to the old `VArray`. `VArrayImpl` should rarely ever be used directly,
unless a new virtual array implementation is added.
To support the small object optimization for many `VArrayImpl` classes,
a new `blender::Any` type is added. It is similar to `std::any` with two
additional features. It has an adjustable inline buffer size and alignment.
The inline buffer size of `std::any` can't be relied on and is usually too
small for our use case here. Furthermore, `blender::Any` can store
additional user-defined type information without increasing the
stack size.

The node does support curves, but only in index mode (see T88630)
So add a specific error message for the nearest mode, and let the
node support curves in the declaration.

Adds a vector offset field to the "Curve Handle Position Node".
This vector is added to the incoming position (which is the
implicit handle position if not connected) which will set the
position of the handle. Default is (0,0,0)

Currently the Distribute Points on Faces node does not propagate
non-point attributes correctly. That is because it first interpolates the
attributes to the point domain on the input mesh, and then propagates them.

Previously, to get the declaration of a socket, one had to go
through `node->declaration`. Now this indirection is not necessary
anymore. This makes it easier to add more per-socket information
into the declaration and accessing it in various places.
Currently, this system is used by socket descriptions and node warnings
for unsupported geometry component types.
Reference struct members by name instead relying on their order.
This also simplifies moving back to named members when all compilers
we use support them.
The point domain attributes (stored on splines) are sorted so they
have a consistent order on all splines after the join. However, spline
domain attributes were included in the new order, which didn't work
because the length of the attribute lists didn't match. The simple fix
is to only include point domain attributes in the new order vector.
Adds a `wmOperatorCallContext` typedef for the existing `WM_OP_XXX`
operator context enum. This adds type safety, allows the compiler to
produce better warnings and helps understanding what a variable is for.

This solves the issue in a more general that can also be used to solve
similar issues for other nodes in the future. Nodes can specify their
"main" socket in their declaration so that we don't have to rely on
heuristics.

Adds a length output to the curve parameter node which returns the

The geometry node evaluator now has access to the entire socket path
from the node that produces a value to the node that uses it. This allows
the evaluator to make decisions about at which points in the path the
value should be converted. Multiple conversions may be necessary under
some circumstances with nested node groups.

This properly checks the order of point domain attributes on each
spline, and avoids the map, which makes the code easier to understand.
The assert is also added to realizing instances and the join node.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D13071
Currently the curve to mesh node relies on the order of attributes being
the same on every spline. This is a worthwhile assumption, because it
will allow removing the attribute name storage duplication on every
spline in the future.
However, the join geometry node broke this order, since it just created
new attributes without any regard to the order. To fix this, I added a
"reorder" step after all the merged attributes have been created, the
types have been joined, etc. It should be possible to change this code
so that the attributes are added with the right order in the first
place, but I would like to do that after refactoring spline attribute
storage, and not for 3.0.
