Suppressing the splash was only done when passing in an argument from
the command line.
Remove G.file_loaded, as it is misleading, only set once on startup,
replace with G.relbase_valid which is used everywhere else to check
if the file path should be used.
Allows to avoid a global lock being held while reading files from disk,
solving performance issues when Cycles needs to read a lot of packed
images.

When doing a non portable build of blender, the executable
blender-thumbnailer would be installed in two locations:
/usr/bin/
/usr/
While cleaning up, also make the blender thumbnailer dll optional on
windows to bring the logic in line with what it is on linux and mac.

Cython was already bundled with Blender's libraries in SVN (as dependency
of Numpy, see rB5bddfde217b1), but was never actually installed in the
CMake install step. As a result, `import cython` would fail. This is
now fixed.
This package allows Python scripts to handle compressed blend files (see
rB2ea66af742bc). This is for example needed by Blender Asset Tracer to
send files to a Flamenco render farm.
This change includes a new `WITH_PYTHON_INSTALL_ZSTANDARD` build-time
option, to control whether to actually install the package. For this the
already-existing approach for Requests was copied.

Make building the thumbnail extraction executable optional,
disable on macOS as this was not linking, further, macOS doesn't use
this for thumbnail extraction so it could be left disabled.
Thumbnail extraction now shares code between Linux/Windows,
allowing thumbnails from Zstd compressed blend files to be extracted.
The main logic is placed in blendthumb_extract.cc and is built as static
library. For windows there is DLL which is registered during blender
install and which then reads and generates thumbnails.
For other platforms there is blender-thumbnailer executable file which
takes blend file as an input and generates PNG file. As a result
Python script blender-thumbnailer.py is no longer needed.
The thumbnail extractor shares the same code-path as Blenders file
reading, so there is no need to duplicate any file reading logic.
This means reading compressed blend files is supported (broken since
the recent move Zstd compression - D5799).
This resolves T63736.

* BrushChannel now uses its refine callback to
generate new structs for individual BrushChannelType's.
- It generates a .value member that's a copy of
one of the exisitng float_ bool_ enum_ etc_value members.
- Haven't figured out how to delete the XXX_value members
yet though.
Changed doc string for Blender `--addons` command line argument

Change the dylib folder relative to `Blender` executable to be
the same as before rB652fbc200500497a67bd11d18b786587ba34e3d9 and same
as bpy.so : `@loader_path/../Resources/${BLENDER_VERSION}/lib`
For Blender.app: dropping libomp.dylib next to Blender executable is
enough for it getting picked up since `@executable_path` is an rpath.
For non-distributed binaries datatoc, makesdna, tests etc, code for
copying libomp.dylib to build folder is removed and replaced by
CMake's rpath option for *build* tree.
For bpy.so, the post build rpath change has also been replaced by CMake
rpath option for *install* tree.
Since -id has been changed in D11748, remove the
`install_name_tool -change ...` command.
Any dylib can just be dropped at `MAC_BLENDER_TARGET_DYLIBS_DIR`
hereafter. Appending dylib path to `CMAKE_BUILD_RPATH` will be needed
for datatoc etc if linked against one (instead of copying the
dylibs around).

Also:
* added BMLog function to save mesh IDs.
- Used by SCULPT_UNDO_DYNTOPO_BEGIN/END instead of
saving the whole mesh, which was the previous behavior.
* SCULPT_UNDO_DYNTOPO_BEGIN no longer pushes a non-dyntopo
geomtry undo node, as this is no longer necassary.
This greatly speeds up going into/out of sculpt mode
with dyntopo enabled, as before it was copying
the mesh twice.

This patch allows Windows users to specify that their current blender
installation should be used to create thumbnails and be associated
with ".blend" files. This is done from Preferences / System. The only
way to do this currently is from the command-line and this is sometimes
inconvenient.

When using non-default system separator in filename path, code would end up
with an absolute path mixing regular and alternative separator,
confusing the rest of the path manipulations later on.
So this commit add proper replacements of alternative separators, and
path normalization.
TBBmalloc_proxy already takes care of any allocations
being done from MSVC compiled code, some of the dependencies
like GMP cannot be build with MSVC and we have to use
mingw to build them. mingw however links against the older
msvcrt.dll for its allocation needs, which TBBMallocProxy
does not hook.
GMP has an option to supply your own allocation functions
so we can still manually redirect them to TBBMalloc.

rB847579b42250 updated the TBB build script
which had some unintended consequences for
windows as the directory layout slightly
changed.
This change adjusts the builder to the new
structure, there are no version/functional
changes.
blender-laucher.c was not an ideal name for this file
since it's not directly clear it is windows only.
This change renames it to blender_launcher_win32.c
to be more in line with other win32 specific files
we have.
This patch fixes a long-standing complaint from users:
the console window shortly flashing when they start
blender.
This is done by adding a new executable called
blender-launcher.exe which starts blender.exe while
hiding the console.
Any command line parameters given to blender-launcher
will be passed on to blender.exe so it'll be a drop
in replacement.
Starting blender.exe on its own will still function as
a proper console app so no changes required here for
users that use blender for batch processing.
Notable changes:
Registering blender (-R switch) will now register
blender-launcher as the preferred executable.
This patch updates the installer and updates the
shortcuts to start blender-launcher.exe rather
than blender.exe
