When creating shaders and using maths functions it is expected that Blender should match functions in other DCC applications, game engines and shading languages such as GLSL and OSL.
This patch adds missing functions to the Blender maths node.
Ideally, it would be nice to have these functions available to vectors too but that is not part of this patch.
This patch adds the following functions trunc, snap, wrap, compare, pingpong, sign, radians, degrees, cosh, sinh, tanh, exp, smoothmin and inversesqrt.
Sign function is based on GLSL and OSL functions and returns zero when x == 0.

After this commit it should be possible to share the same deformation
formulas that are used in the Elastic Deform brush with other areas of
Blender such as Grease Pencil or proportional editing.
This also removes a lot of code from sculpt.c that is not direclty
related to sculpting.

This code allows to push a set of different operations all based on
iterations over a range of indices, and then process them all at once
over multiple threads.
This commit also adds unit tests for both old un-pooled, and new pooled
task_parallel_range family of functions, as well as some basic
performances tests.
This is mainly interesting for relatively low amount of individual
tasks, as expected.
E.g. performance tests on a 32 threads machine, for a set of 10
different tasks, shows following improvements when using pooled version
instead of ten sequential calls to BLI_task_parallel_range():
| Num Items | Sequential | Pooled | Speed-up |
| --------- | ---------- | ------- | -------- |
| 10K | 365 us | 138 us | 2.5 x |
| 100K | 877 us | 530 us | 1.66 x |
| 1000K | 5521 us | 4625 us | 1.25 x |

Note: Compared to previous commit yesterday, this reworks atomic handling in
parallel iter code, and fixes a dummy double-free bug.
Now we should only use the two critical values for synchronization from
atomic calls results, which is the proper way to do things.
Reading a value after an atomic operation does not guarantee you will
get the latest value in all cases (especially on Windows release builds
it seems).

`BLI_strncpy_wchar_from_utf8` internally assumes `wchar_t` is 32 bits
which is not the case on windows.
The solution is to replace `wchar_t` with `char32_t`.
Thanks to @robbott for compatibility on macOS.

Check was losing precision -- adjust by translating points
before calculating circumcircle.
Also, needed to check for flippability of edges before flipping.

This new function is part of the 'parallel for loops' functions. It
takes an iterator callback to generate items to be processed, in
addition to the usual 'process' func callback.
This allows to use common code from BLI_task for a wide range of custom
iteratiors, whithout having to re-invent the wheel of the whole tasks &
data chuncks handling.
This supports all settings features from `BLI_task_parallel_range()`,
including dynamic and static (if total number of items is knwon)
scheduling, TLS data and its finalize callback, etc.
One question here is whether we should provide usercode with a spinlock
by default, or enforce it to always handle its own sync mechanism.
I kept it, since imho it will be needed very often, and generating one
is pretty cheap even if unused...
----------
Additionaly, this commit converts (currently unused)
`BLI_task_parallel_listbase()` to use that generic code. This was done
mostly as proof of concept, but performance-wise it shows some
interesting data, roughly:
- Very light processing (that should not be threaded anyway) is several
times slower, which is expected due to more overhead in loop management
code.
- Heavier processing can be up to 10% quicker (probably thanks to the
switch from dynamic to static scheduling, which reduces a lot locking
to fill-in the per-tasks chunks of data). Similar speed-up in
non-threaded case comes as a surprise though, not sure what can
explain that.
While this conversion is not really needed, imho we should keep it
(instead of existing code for that function), it's easier to have
complex handling logic in as few places as possible, for maintaining and
for improving it.
Note: That work was initially done to allow for D5372 to be possible... Unfortunately that one proved to be not better than orig code on performances point of view.

* Add proper adjustment for scale in the solver epsilon computation.
* Run at least one full iteration of the solver, even if the initial
state meets the epsilon requirement.
* When applying offset, blend normal into the offset direction
as the initial point moves very close to the target mesh.
Also random improvements to debug trace output in the console.
In Blender 2.7 delete would permanently delete files, now this function is back
but using more standard behavior.

That code is simpler and more general (not limited to some specific
values of thread numbers). It still gives similar default chunk size as
what we had before, but handles smoother increase steps, and higher
number of threads, by keeping increasing the chunk size.
No functional change expected from that commit.
This commit adds some new hashing based data structures to blenlib.
All of them use open addressing with probing currently.
Furthermore, they support small object optimization, but it is not
customizable yet. I'll add support for this when necessary.
The following main data structures are included:
**Set**
A collection of values, where every value must exist at most once.
This is similar to a Python `set`.
**SetVector**
A combination of a Set and a Vector. It supports fast search for
elements and maintains insertion order when there are no deletes.
All elements are stored in a continuous array. So they can be
iterated over using a normal `ArrayRef`.
**Map**
A set of key-value-pairs, where every key must exist at most once.
This is similar to a Python `dict`.
**StringMap**
A special map for the case when the keys are strings. This case is
fairly common and allows for some optimizations. Most importantly,
many unnecessary allocations can be avoided by storing strings in
a single buffer. Furthermore, the interface of this class uses
`StringRef` to avoid unnecessary conversions.
