In the original design draw engines had to copy with a limitation that
they were not allowed to reuse complex data structures between drawing
calls. Data that could be reused were limited to:
- GPUFramebuffers
- GPUTextures
- Memory that could be removed calling MEM_freeN (storage list)
- DRWPass
This is fine when the storage list contains arrays or structs but when
more complex data types (vectors, maps) etc wasn't possible.
This patch adds instance_data that can be reused between drawing calls.
The instance_data is controlled by the draw engine and doesn't need to
be limited as described above.
When an engines stores instance_data it must implement the
`DrawEngineType.instance_free` callback to free the data.
The patch originates from eevee rewrite. But was added to master as the
image engine rewrite also has a need for it.

Image engine is used to draw an image into a space. The current
structure wasn't clear and couldn't be easilly extended. This refactor
spliced the image draw engine into 3 main components.
- Space accessors: contains an interface to communicate with space data
(Image editor, UV Editor, Node Editor) in a common way. This reduced
the branching in the code base.
- DrawingMode: contains an interface to the used tactic to draw an image
inside the space framebuffer. Currently only one mode is implemented;
in the future there could be a separate drawing mode for huge images.
- ImageEngine: the core that connects the draw manager with the space
data and drawing mode.

For stereo renders, `BKE_image_is_multilayer` is true, however we seem
to get to down to `space_image_gpu_texture_get` [where this is called]
from `IMAGE_cache_init` with a NULL Image->RenderResult.
So what then happens is that `BKE_image_multilayer_index` is called and
even though it has an appropriate codepath for stereo, it earlies out
and does not set multi_index correctly.
Still a bit puzzled why RenderResult is NULL for a render, but since
other places also check for a valid RenderResult before going down the
_multilayer_ route (and doing _multiview_ instead), now do the same
thing, BKE_image_multiview_index is now called in these cases (and seems
to behave correctly, checked with layers and passes and all seems to
display correctly, either in stereo or choosing individual eyes).
thx @jbakker & @brecht for double-checking.

The idea is to only allocate pixel storage only when there is an actual
data to be written to them.
This moves the code forward a better support of high-res rendering when
pixel storage is not allocated until render engine is ready to provide
pixel data.
Is expected to be no functional changes for neither users no external
engines. The only difference is that the motion and depth passes will
be displayed as transparent for until render engine provides any tile
result (at which point the pixels will be allocated and initialized to
infinite depth).

selected pass
Caused by {rBebaa3fcedd23}.
Seems this above commit assumed an ImageUser's multi_index is only used
for Multiview/Stereo? This is not the case, multi_index also stores the
index for layer/pass combination.
If we call both BKE_image_multilayer_index and BKE_image_multiview_index
(even though this is not appropriate/needed for multilayer images?), we
might end up overwriting multi_index again.
note: looking at this I was also wondering why we update the ImageUser
in image-buffer-aquiring funnctions [and not from the UI, e.g.
template_image_layers, but that is a whole different story I guess, see
comment in T90772 as well]
note2: this could also use a utility function (this is not the only
place where this is done), this is fo a cleanup commit.

Channel packed images should not have their RGB affected by alpha.
rendering in Cycles and Eevee was fine already, but displaying these was
not right in the Image and Node editors.
Not 100% sure what to do for the "Color and Alpha" mode, but I guess
this should stay like it was before (applying the alpha).
"Color", "R", "G", and "B" modes were changed to not have color be
affected by alpha though.

There was a similar report prior to the introduction of the Image
Engine, see T74586.
This was fixed by rB6a5bd812b569 at that time, but got lost in the
refactor it seems.
Above commit introduced the `ED_space_image_get_display_channel_mask`
function that will determine
the valid bitflags for the display channel of a given ImBuf.
But since the refactor, this is not called anymore (`draw_image_main` is
not called anymore)
Now it seems we can safely reuse that said function
`ED_space_image_get_display_channel_mask` also for the Image Engine.

The `image_get_gpu_texture` didn't use the iuser->view_index but
recalculated the requested view again. This lead to inconsistent
behavior when switching between multi view textures or stereo textures.
This has been fixed by ensuring that the `iuser->view_index` is always
used.
An Image has only place to store 2 view textures. This is done for
right/left eye compositing. A multi view texture can have more views.
This would lead to reading and writing to unallocated space.
When a multiview texture is requested that is larger than 1. It will
always be cached as being the first eye. The `gpu_view` of the Image is
also used as a cache key to check this.
Stores cryptomatte hashes as meta data to the render result. Compositors could
use this for lookup on names in stead of hashes.

This change will use the image engine to draw the backdrop of the compositor. With this patch the alpha blending will be done in Linear Scene Reference space and shows pure emissive colors.
See differential for an example image.
**Technical changes**
As only the backdrop drawing is done using the draw manager there are some technical changes.
1. The overlay buffer is partly drawn outside the draw manager. When drawing the backdrop image the overlay buffer needs to be masked to simulate premultiplied alpha under.
2. The backdrop of the node editor is done in region pixel space. A `DRWView` is constructed with this space.
3. UDIM textures uses world position to generate the UV coordinates. This has been implemented more strict by the `IMAGE_DRAW_FLAG_USE_WORLD_POS`. When the flag isn't used the local coordinates are used to generate the UV coordinates what is image space.
4. The draw manager now checks the actual `eSpaceType` of the space data to use different code paths. In the future the movie clip editor will be added.
NOTE: The preview images in nodes are drawn in display space and cannot show pure emissive colors. As preview images are used on more locations it is best to fix this in a separate patch.

With the new image editor drawing there were was some mutual exclusive
functionality. When rendering the alpha was shown correctly or the pure
emissive colors were shown correctly, but never both. The cause of this
is that the image_gpu did not used the correct alpha mode when generating
gpu textures for non-images (render results, compositors viewer)
The implementation always checked the alpha_mode. Alpha mode is an
attribute for images, but aren't set for non images. This patch adds
a more detailed check to ensure that the gpu texture is premultiplied.
The issue has been tested using several bug report files and production
files.

When repeat image was active the image was drawn in the foreground
making most uv overlays not visible. This change creates a shared
defined value for repeating and not repeating images.
The UV/Image editor was doing interpolation including over the alpha
value what makes will render incorrectly when interpolating between pure
emissive colors and pre multiplied colors. This change disabled the
interpolation.
There are some areas that don't handle pure emissive colors well. For
example erasing alpha using 2d or 3d painting. Or blurring an image in
the compositor.
This patch makes the rendering of pure emissive colors optional. In the
side panel of the Image editor it can still be enabled when needed.
There currently isn't a better place to store it as it is related on how
the image (or a layer of the image) is created. A future design needs to
make sure that the full workflow is supported.
Tiled texture uses different texture structure than normal textures.
Normally we add dummy textures and use them, but I found it cleaner to
have 2 shaders and use the correct shader.
This project moves the current UV/Image editor drawing to the draw manager.
Why would we do this:
**Performance**:
Current implementation would draw each texel per time. Multiple texels could be
drawn per pixel what would overwrite the previous result. You can notice this
when working with large textures. Repeat image drawing made this visible by
drawing for a small period of time and stop drawing the rest. Now the rendering
is fast and all repeated images are drawn.
**Alpha drawing**:
Current implementation would draw directly in display space. Giving incorrect
results when displaying alpha transparent images.
This addresses {T52680}, {T74709}, {T79518}
The image editor now can show emission only colors. See {D8234} for
examples.
**Current Limitations**
Using images that are larger than supported by your GPU are resized (eg larger
than 16000x16000 are resized to 8k). This leaves some blurring artifacts. It is
a low priority to add support back of displaying individual pixels of huge
images. There is a design task {T80113} with more detail.
**Implementation overview**
Introduced an Image Engine in the draw module. this engine is responsible for
drawing the texture in the main area of the UV/Image editor. The overlay engine
has a edit_uv overlay which is responsible to draw the UV's, shadows and
overlays specifically for the UV Image editor. The background + checker pattern
is drawn by the overlay_background.
The patch will allow us to share overlays between the 3d viewport and UV/Image
editor more easily. In most cases we just need to switch the `pos` with the `u`
attribute in the vertex shader.
The project can be activated in the user preferences as experimental features.
In a later commit this will be reversed.
