This replaces lost functionality from the old GN Attribute Map Range node.
This also adds vector support to the shader version of the node.

This breaks forward compatibility as this node now uses data storage.

When rendering volume surfaces in unbounded worlds the volume stepping can produce large values. If used with a magic texture node the values can results in a Inf float which when used in a sin or cos produces a NaN.
To fix this the input values are mapped into the periodic range of the sin and cos functions (-2*PI 2*PI) this stops the possibility of a Inf occurring and thus the NaN. It also improves the accuracy and smoothness of the result due to loss of precision when large values are summed with smaller ones effectively removing the parts of the smaller number (i.e. those in the -2PI to 2PI range) that result in variation of the output of sin and cos.

Issue introduced in {7e66616b7e15} where the shader was replaced with a
2d image shader. This patch reverts several commits that removed the 3d
image shader.
We run into float precision issues here, clamp the number of octaves to
one less, which has little to no visual difference. This was empirically
determined to work up to 16 before, but with additional inputs like
roughness only 15 appears to work.
Also adds misisng clamp for the geometry nodes implementation.
This patch includes code from D9891 and D12754, so credit goes to Juanfran and Dalai.
I updated the patches to work with `master` and with the new overlay toggle.
The reason to include both changes as part of one patch is that the dimmed dashed lines work much better together with colored wires.
Theme setting for dash opacity:
{F11370574, size=full}
{F11286177, size=full, autoplay, loop}
{F11149912, size=full}
For adding the overlay I used `SpaceImageOverlay` as reference, although I'm not familiar with this code so there might be mistakes.

No functional change, just cleaning up the shader code a bit.
Part of this is removing dead code (the discard was never called), and
part is shuffling mix/max around based on feedback by Sybren Stüvel.
Use dashes to represent the function flow (while keeping continuous
lines for the data-flow).
It is important to tell both flows apart (the data and the function
flow). The sockets help with that, the noodles help this further.
The "data flow" is evaluated at every single node. A user can inspect
the output sockets of those nodes and have a glimpse at their values.
The "function flow" (nodes) however is only evaluated in the geometry
nodes. The noodles are not transporting data in the same sense of the
"data flow". All that can be inspected are the attributes the functions
depend on.
Having this clearly communicated should help users to inspect the
nodetrees, read and understand the different flows in the same tree.
---
Known limitations:
At the moment the dash lines are not equidistant:
* It would be nice to get the "uv.x" to be resampled for the bezier curve
so the dashes are equally distributed in the curve.
* Using distance between the P3 and P0 instead of the real bezier curve
length seems to be fine.
---
Full disclaimer:
Changes with that much of a visual impact tend to be controversial. So
far the main feedback is that dashed lines can be associated to broken
link, and that there are better ways to represent the flows (or
different information that should be visually represented).
I'm fully aware of that. However dashed lines are already used in the
viewport and outliner to indicate (hierarchical) relation. Besides,
other approaches (double-lines, having the data flow to be more
distinct, ...) didn't pan out in the end (or didn't look as good as
this).
---
Impact in other editors:
The compositor uses mostly a "data flow" nodetree, so no change is
expected there.
The shader nodetree is one that could but doesn't have to change its
visual language.
The shader nodetree uses mostly "function flow" with some "data flow" nodes.
One can argue that it should be adapted to follow the
same pattern as geometry nodes (with the new noodles and the diamond
sockets). Oh the other hand, a shader nodetree has a single context.
When a node depends on the "UV", there is only one UV at a time for the
entire nodetree. So it can also be treated as a psedo "data flow"
nodetree if we want to avoid too many changes in other parts of Blender.

This patch adds the ability to mute individual wires in the node editor.
This is invoked like the cut links operator but with a new shortcut.
Mute = Ctrl + Alt
Cut = Ctrl
Dragging over wires will toggle the mute state for that wire.
The muted wires are drawn in red with a bar across the center.
Red is used in the nodes context to indicate invalid links, muted links and internal links.
When a wire is muted it exposes the original node buttons which are normally hidden when a wire is connected.
Downstream and upstream links connected using reroute nodes are also muted.
Outside scope of patch:
- Add support for pynodes e.g. Animation Nodes
- Requires minor change to check for muted links using the `is_muted` link property or the `is_linked` socket property.

Accumulate error caused by the low amount of integration slices and
correct it for the low roughness surfaces.
This increases light leak but it is less distracting than dark fringe
everywhere.
The actual sample count is rounded up to a multiple of 4 because we
sample 4 horizons directions.
Changing this setting forces the shader to recompile (because using a
GPU_constant).
Reflection
Anisotropic is not really supported in Eevee, but since code looks like
it is just intended to make it behave like glossy, it should function
like it too.
Seems like the internal calling from `node_bsdf_glossy` from
`node_bsdf_anisotropic` has swapped arguments.
Also: ssr_id is available for SH_NODE_BSDF_ANISOTROPIC as well (see
`ntree_tag_bsdf_cb`), so why not use it?

This adds an approximation of inverted AO by reversing the max horizon
search (becoming a min horizon). The horizons are correctly clamped in
the reverse direction to the shading and geometric normals.
The arc integration is untouched as it seems to be symetrical.
The limitation of this technique is that since it is still screen-space
AO you don't get other hidden surfaces occlusion. This is more
problematic in the case of inverted AO than for normal AO but it's
better than no support AO.
Support of distance parameter was easy thanks to recent AO refactor.
- Fix noise/banding artifact on distant geometry.
- Fix overshadowing on un-occluded surfaces at grazing angle producing "fresnel"
like shadowing. Some of it still appears but this is caused to the low number
of horizons per pixel.
- Improve performance by using a fixed number of samples and fixing the
sampling area size. A better sampling pattern is planned to recover
the lost precision on large AO radius.
- Improved normal reconstruction for the AO pass.
- Improve Bent Normal reconstruction resulting in less faceted look on
smoothed geometry.
- Add Thickness heuristic to avoid overshadowing of thin objects.
Factor is currently hardcoded.
- Add bent normal support to Glossy reflections.
- Change Glossy occlusion to give less light leaks from lightprobes.
It can overshadow on smooth surface but this should be mitigated by
using SSR.
- Use Bent Normal for rough Glossy surfaces.
- Occlusion is now correctly evaluated for each BSDF. However this does make
everything slower. This is mitigated by the fact the search is a lot faster
than before.
This modifies the principled BSDF and the Glass BSDF which now
have better fit to multiscatter GGX.
Code to generate the LUT have been updated and can run at runtime.
The refraction LUT has been changed to have the critical angle always
centered around one pixel so that interpolation can be mitigated.
Offline LUT data will be updated in another commit
This simplify the BTDF retreival removing the manual clean cut at
low roughness. This maximize the precision of the LUT by scalling
the sides by the critical angle.
I also touched the ior > 1.0 approximation to be smoother.
Also incluse some cleanup of bsdf_sampling.glsl
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.

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}
In glsl the clamp function has undefined behavior when min > max. For
the clamp node this resulted in differences between cycles and eevee.
This patch adds the expected implementation for minmax.
The old clamp function is still used in cases where we know for certain
that the input values are correct (math node clamp option). GPU uses
optimized code and silicon in these cases.
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]
