This refactor was needed for some reasons:
- closure_lit_lib.glsl was unreadable and could not be easily extended to use new features.
- It was generating ~5K LOC for any shader. Slowing down compilation.
- Some calculations were incorrect and BSDF/Closure code had lots of workaround/hacks.
What this refactor does:
- Add some macros to define the light object loops / eval.
- Clear separation between each closures which now have separate files. Each closure implements the eval functions.
- Make principled BSDF a bit more correct in some cases (specular coloring, mix between glass and opaque).
- The BSDF term are applied outside of the eval function and on the whole lighting (was separated for lights before).
- Make light iteration last to avoid carrying more data than needed.
- Makes sure that all inputs are within correct ranges before evaluating the closures (use `safe_normalize` on normals).
- Making each BSDF isolated means that we might carry duplicated data (normals for instance) but this should be optimized by compilers.
- Makes Translucent BSDF its own closure type to avoid having to disable raytraced shadows using hacks.
- Separate transmission roughness is now working on Principled BSDF.
- Makes principled shader variations using constants. Removing a lot of duplicated code. This needed `const` keyword detection in `gpu_material_library.c`.
- SSR/SSS masking and data loading is a bit more consistent and defined outside of closure eval. The loading functions will act as accumulator if the lighting is not to be separated.
- SSR pass now do a full deferred lighting evaluation, including lights, in order to avoid interference with the closure eval code. However, it seems that the cost of having a global SSR toggle uniform is making the surface shader more expensive (which is already the case, by the way).
- Principle fully black specular tint now returns black instead of white.
- This fixed some artifact issue on my AMD computer on normal surfaces (which might have been some uninitialized variables).
- This touched the Ambient Occlusion because it needs to be evaluated for each closure. But to avoid the cost of this, we use another approach to just pass the result of the occlusion on interpolated normals and modify it using the bent normal for each Closure. This tends to reduce shadowing. I'm still looking into improving this but this is out of the scope of this patch.
- Performance might be a bit worse with this patch since it is more oriented towards code modularity. But not by a lot.
Render tests needs to be updated after this.

This patch will show textures in the image editor with the maximum
available resolution determined by the GPU Hardware/Driver.
Currently the size is limited by the user preference texture size limit.
An image user can set the `IMA_SHOW_MAX_RESOLUTION` flag to request
gpu textures in the max supported resolution. When this flag isn't
set the gpu texture is limited by the user preference setting.
When the gl resolution limit is disabled the GPU texture is always
created for the max supported resolution.

Since 216d78687d the depth function
(glDepthFunc) was left in an undefined state for drawing callbacks that
use the `bgl` module.
This meant enabling depth-test from Python's bgl module also needed
to set the depth function (which previously wasn't necessary).
Set the depth function as part of GPU_bgl_start
During viewport rendering the color values were clamped in order to
apply the overlay on top of it. This clamping would show the scene
colors washed out.
This patch adds a work around to skip the clamping when the overlays are
turned off.
Parial fix for {T77909}
Regression introduced by {c766d9b9dc56}. When converting the vertex
buffer to a texture buffer the fetch mode wasn't checked and the short
was bitwise interpreted as a float. This change checks the fetch_mode
and select the correct texture buffer.
This could also be added to other places when needed. At this time it is
only added here to support vertex colors when used with hair particles.
This change makes it possible for platforms to only support high quality
normal rendering. This is part of {T82856} where current AMD drivers
running on the polaris architecture does not support the low quality
setting due to a driver bug.
In a next commit the work around will be enabled.
Some GPU platforms don't support having more than one underscore in
sequence in an attribute name. This change will remove the underscore
as a possible character when encoding to save names.
Fix T83415: 3D View is red when using stereo
The red view was caused by SRGB not being enabled for an SRGB texture attached to the framebuffer.
Currently, when configuring a framebuffer, the first texture attachment needs to be an SRGB format in order for the framebuffer to be binded with SRGB enabled.
Thus, simply changing the SRGB texture attachment as the first texture attachment removes the red color in the view.

Modernize loops by using the `for(type variable : container)` syntax.
Some loops were trivial to fix, whereas others required more attention
to avoid semantic changes. I couldn't address all old-style loops, so
this commit doesn't enable the `modernize-loop-convert` rule.
Although Clang-Tidy's auto-fixer prefers to use `auto` for the loop
variable declaration, I made as many declarations as possible explicit.
To me this increases local readability, as you don't need to fully
understand the container in order to understand the loop variable type.
No functional changes.
Replace `typedef` with `using` in C++ code.
In the case of `typedef struct SomeName { ... } SomeName;` I removed the
`typedef` altogether, as this is unnecessary in C++. Such cases have been
rewritten to `struct SomeName { ... };`

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.

Add a new Alpha socket to the Attribute node that outputs the
fourth component of the attribute. Currently the only such
attribute is vertex color, but there may be more in the future.
If the attribute has no alpha channel, the expected value is 1.
