`scissor_test_set` wasn't able to parse the arguments that were
passed correctly, due to incorrect control data during functino
registration.
This patch uses the correct control data during registration and

GPUBatch.draw supports basic drawing methods. Although all
supported GPU backends support range based and instance based drawing.
This patch adds 2 methods to GPUBatch to add support to range based and
instance based drawing.
my_batch.draw_range(my_shader, elem_start=10, elem_count=5)
Will draw my_batch using my_shader. From the attached index buffer
elements 10-14 will be drawn.
my_batch.draw_instance_range(my_shader, instance_start=0, instance_count=10)
will draw my_batch using my_shader 10 times. Inside the vertex
shader the current instance number is held by gl_InstanceID.
Pull Request #104457
For every other texture types this is expected to be implicitly
`GPU_DATA_FLOAT`. There is only one case where this is not the case.
I believe this was previously needed because the data type was
conditionning the texture creation. This is not the case anymore.
This is a missing part of the Metal backend. Metal backend doesn't
support the bgl commands, but it was not possible to use the gpu
module to use scissor testing.
Without this change addon developers would not be able to migrate
their addons to support the Metal backend.
This patch adds:
- `gpu.state.scissor_set`
- `gpu.state.scissor_get`
- `gpu.state.scissor_test_set`
Fix#104911
Documented all functions, adding use case and side effects.
Also replace the use of shortened argument name by more meaningful ones.
Renamed `GPU_batch_instbuf_add_ex` and `GPU_batch_vertbuf_add_ex` to remove
the `ex` suffix as they are the main version used (removed the few usage
of the other version).
Renamed `GPU_batch_draw_instanced` to `GPU_batch_draw_instance_range` and
make it consistent with `GPU_batch_draw_range`.
Translation from python enum values were incorrect and textures created
in python using those types would result in faulty textures. In
renderdoc those textures would not bind.
`BPYGPU_IS_INIT_OR_ERROR_OBJ` is not implemented in all pygpu functions.
Instead of copying and pasting that call across the API when it has no
gpu context, override the methods with one that always reports error.
Function casts hid casting between potentially incompatible type
signatures (using int instead of Py_ssize_t). As it happens this seems
not to have caused any bugs on supported platforms so this change is
mainly for correctness and to avoid problems in the future.
Missed these changes in [0].
Also replace designated initializers in some C code, as it's not used
often and would need to be removed when converting to C++.

Use struct identifiers in comments before the value.
This has some advantages:
- The struct identifiers didn't mix well with other code-comments,
where other comments were wrapped onto the next line.
- Minor changes could re-align all other comments in the struct.
- PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT & tp_name are no longer placed on the same line.
Remove overly verbose comments copied from PyTypeObject (Python v2.x),
these aren't especially helpful and get outdated.
Also corrected some outdated names:
- PyTypeObject.tp_print -> tp_vectorcall_offset
- PyTypeObject.tp_reserved -> tp_as_async
This patch adds a placeholder for the vulkan backend.
When activated (`WITH_VULKAN_BACKEND=On` and `--gpu-backend vulkan`)
it might open a blender screen, but nothing should be visible as
none of the functions are implemented or otherwise crash on a nullptr.
This is expected as this is just a placeholder. The goal is to add shader compilation
+validation to this backend as one of the next steps so we can validate
changes to existing shaders on OpenGL, Metal and Vulkan at the same time.

This is the conventional way of dealing with unused arguments in C++,
since it works on all compilers.
Regex find and replace: `UNUSED\((\w+)\)` -> `/*$1*/`
Mathutils types were always GC tracked even when it wasn't intended.
Not having to track objects speeds up Python execution.
In an isolated benchmark created to stress test the GC
creating 4-million vectors (re-assigning them 100 times), this gives
an overall ~2.5x speedup, see: P3221.
Details:
Since [0] (which added support for sub-classed mathutils types)
tp_alloc was called which defaults to PyType_GenericAlloc which always
GC tracked the resulting object when Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_GC was set.
Avoid using PyType_GenericAlloc unless the type is sub-classed,
in that case the object is un-tracked.
Add asserts that the tracked state is as expected before tracking &
un-tracking, to ensure changes to object creation don't cause objects
to be tracked unintentionally.
Also assign the PyTypeObject.tp_is_gc callback so types optionally GC
track objects only do so when an object is referenced.

Depending on the actual platform, Blender will disable features that are
known to have a faulty implementation. Add-on developers or users don't
have the ability to check what is actually enabled.
This patch will add the ability to check for
* Compute shader support `gpu.capabilities.compute_shader_support_get()`.
* SSBO support `gpu.capabilities.shader_storage_buffer_objects_support_get()`.
* Image load/store `gpu.capabilities.shader_image_load_store_support_get()`.
This simplifies python code.
When we call a method like shader.uniform_float("color", (1,1,1,1)),
we expect the shader's uniform to be updated regardless of whether the
shader is bound or not.
And `batch.draw()` already calls `GPU_shader_bind` inside.

Since rB6269d66da, creating formats no longer depends solely on the
shader, but now depends on the dimensions used to fill the VBOs.
This allows 3D shaders to work flawlessly when assigned dimensions are
2D.
So there's no real benefit to us having shaders that are limited to 2D
use anymore.
This limitation makes it difficult to implement other builtin shaders
as they indirectly require a 2D version.
So this commit removes the 2D versions of the builtin sahders used in
Python , renames the string enums but keeps the old enums working for
backward compatibility.
(This brings parts of the changes reviewed in D15836).
Full support for translation and compilation of shaders in Metal, using
GPUShaderCreateInfo. Includes render pipeline state creation and management,
enabling all standard GPU viewport rendering features in Metal.

This cleans up the OpenGL build flags and linking.
It additionally also removes some dead code.
One of these dead code paths is WITH_X11_ALPHA which actually never was
active even with the build flag on. The call to use this was never
called because the default initializer for GHOST was set to have it off
per default. Nothing called this function with a boolean value to enable it.
These cleanups are needed to support true headless OpenGL rendering.
Without these cleanups libepoxy will fail to load the correct OpenGL
Libraries as we have already linked them to the blender binary.

With libepoxy we can choose between EGL and GLX at runtime, as well as
dynamically open EGL and GLX libraries without linking to them.
This will make it possible to build with Wayland, EGL, GLVND support while
still running on systems that only have X11, GLX and libGL. It also paves
the way for headless rendering through EGL.
libepoxy is a new library dependency, and is included in the precompiled
libraries. GLEW is no longer a dependency, and WITH_SYSTEM_GLEW was removed.
