MTLContext provides functionality for command encoding, binding management and graphics device management. MTLImmediate provides simple draw enablement with dynamically encoded data. These draws utilise temporary scratch buffer memory to provide minimal bandwidth overhead during workload submission.
This patch also contains empty placeholders for MTLBatch and MTLDrawList to enable testing of first pixels on-screen without failure.
The Metal API also requires access to the GHOST_Context to ensure the same pre-initialized Metal GPU device is used by the viewport. Given the explicit nature of Metal, explicit control is also needed over presentation, to ensure correct work scheduling and rendering pipeline state.

Sun Disc is currently not supported because it'll need special handling - on the one hand, I'm not sure if Eevee would handle a 1e6 coming out of a background shader without issues, and on the other hand it won't actually cast sharp shadows anyways.
I guess we'd want to internally add a sun to the lamps if Sun Disc is enabled, but getting that right is tricky since the user could e.g. swap RGB channels in the node tree and the lamp wouldn't match that.
Anyways, that can be handled later, the sky itself is already a start.

This change adds cryptomatte render passes to EEVEE-Next. Due to the upcoming viewport
compositor we also improved cryptomatte so it will be real-time. This also allows viewing
the cryptomatte passes in the viewport directly.
{F13482749}
A surface shader would store any active cryptomatte layer to a texture. Object hash is stored
as R, Asset hash as G and Material hash as B. Hashes are only calculated when the cryptomatte
layer is active to reduce any unneeded work.
During film accumulation the hashes are separated and stored in a texture array that matches
the cryptomatte standard. For the real-time use case sorting is skipped. For final rendering
the samples are sorted and normalized.
NOTE: Eventually we should also do sample normalization in the viewport in order to extract the correct
mask when using the viewport compositor.

This replaces the direct shader uniform layout declaration by a linear
search through a global buffer.
Each instance has an attribute offset inside the global buffer and an
attribute count.
This removes any padding and tighly pack all uniform attributes inside
a single buffer.
This would also remove the limit of 8 attribute but it is kept because of
compatibility with the old system that is still used by the old draw
manager.
This particular GPU driver does not constant fold all the way in order
to discard the unused branches.
To workaround that, we introduce a series of material flag that generates
defines that only keep used branches.

This allows the render engine to expect non-overlapping resources in the
generated create info.
Textures are indexed from 0 and up.
Nodetree ubo is bound to slot 0.
Uniform attributes ubo is bound to slot 1.
There was a memory leak in the GPU code generator for the compositor
output. It was just due to a missing free in the GPU code generator
destructor, so this patch makes sure it is freed.
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 happened because of the false assumption that `std::array<char, 32>`
would be treated as a container and not relocate their content if the
`Vector` would grow. Replacing with actual object allocation fixes the
issue.
Candidate for 3.2.1 corrective release.
Overwriting UV map or vertex color data in Geometry nodes will move the
layers to another CustomData channel, and as such, will make attribute
lookup fail from the UVMap and Vertex Color nodes in EEVEE as the
CustomDataType will also be modified (i.e. no longer `CD_MTFACE` or
`CD_MCOL`).
As discussed in T93179, the solution is to use `CD_PROP_AUTO_FROM_NAME`
so that the render engine is able to find the attributes. This also makes
EEVEE emulate Cycles behaviour in this regard. `attr_load_uv` and
`attr_load_color` are also removed in favor of the generic attribute
API in the various GLSL shaders.
Although `CD_PROP_AUTO_FROM_NAME` is now used even for UV maps, the
active UV map is still used in case the attribute name is empty, to
preserve the old behavior.

This is to avoid use after free when the `GPUPass` gets compiled after the
original `GPUMaterial` used to create it was freed.
The issue was introduced by rBfa3bd17ae873
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.
