This implements a merge by distance operation for point clouds.
Besides the geometry input, there are two others-- a selection
input to limit the operation to certain points, and the merge
distance. While it would be a reasonable feature, the distance
does not support a field currently, since that would make
the algorithm significantly more complex.
All attributes are merged to the merged points, with the values
mixed together. This same generic method is used for all attributes,
including `position`. The `id` attribute uses the value from the
first merged index for each point.
For the implementation, most of the effort goes into creating a
merge map to speed up attribute mixing. Some parts are inherently
single-threaded, like finding the final indices accounting for the
merged points. By far most of the time is spend balancing the
KD tree.
Mesh support will be added in the next commit.

This commit introduced some regressions in the test suite.
As this change is a core part of blender Bastien and I decided to revert
it as the solution isn't clear and needs more investigation.

63 - blendfile_library_overrides (SEGFAULT)

During sprite fright loading of complex scenes would spend a long time in remapping ID's
The remapping process is done on a per ID instance that resulted in a very time consuming
process that goes over every possible ID reference to find out if it needs to be updated.
If there are N of references to ID blocks and there are M ID blocks that needed to be remapped
it would take N*M checks. These checks are scattered around the place and memory.
Each reference would only be updated at most once, but most of the time no update is needed at all.
Idea: By grouping the changes together will reduce the number of checks resulting in improved performance.
This would only require N checks. Additional benefits is improved data locality as data is only loaded once
in the L2 cache.
It has be implemented for the resyncing process and UI editors.
On an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700 CPU @ 3.40GHz 16Gig the resyncing process went
from 170 seconds to 145 seconds (during hotspot recording).
After this patch has been applied we could add similar approach
to references (references between data blocks) and functionality (tagged deletion).
In my understanding this could reduce the resyncing process to less than a second.

Allows to perform correction of coordinate delta/displacement in a
similar way of how sculpt mode handles sculpting on a deformed mesh.
An example of usecase of this is allowing riggers and sciprters to
improve corrective shapekey workflow.
The usage consists of pre-processing and access. For example:
object.crazyspace_eval(depsgraph, scene)
# When we have a difference between two vertices and want to convert
# it to a space to be stored, say, in shapekey:
delta_in_orig_space = rigged_ob.crazyspace_displacement_to_original(
vertex_index=i, displacement=delta)
# The reverse of above.
delta_in_deformed_space = rigged_ob.crazyspace_displacement_to_deformed(
vertex_index=i, displacement=delta)

The evaluated mesh is a result of evaluated modifiers, and referencing
other evaluated IDs such as materials.
It can not be stored in the EditMesh structure which is intended to be
re-used by many areas. Such sharing was causing ownership errors causing
bugs like
T93855: Cycles crash with edit mode and simultaneous viewport and final render
The proposed solution is to store the evaluated edit mesh and its cage in
the object's runtime field. The motivation goes as following:
- It allows to avoid ownership problems like the ones in the linked report.
- Object level is chosen over mesh level is because the evaluated mesh
is affected by modifiers, which are on the object level.
This patch allows to have modifier stack of an object which shares mesh with
an object which is in edit mode to be properly taken into account (before
the change the modifier stack from the active object will be used for all
objects which share the mesh).
There is a change in the way how copy-on-write is handled in the edit mode to
allow proper state update when changing active scene (or having two windows
with different scenes). Previously, the copt-on-write would have been ignored
by skipping tagging CoW component. Now it is ignored from within the CoW
operation callback. This allows to update edit pointers for objects which are
not from the current depsgraph and where the edit_mesh was never assigned in
the case when the depsgraph was evaluated prior the active depsgraph.
There is no user level changes changes expected with the CoW handling changes:
should not affect on neither performance, nor memory consumption.
Tested scenarios:
- Various modifiers configurations of objects sharing mesh and be part of the
same scene.
- Steps from the reports: T93855, T82952, T77359
This also fixes T76609, T72733 and perhaps other reports.

This patch introduces an extrude node with three modes. The vertex mode
is quite simple, and just attaches new edges to the selected vertices.
The edge mode attaches new faces to the selected edges. The faces mode
extrudes patches of selected faces, or each selected face individually,
depending on the "Individual" boolean input.
The default value of the "Offset" input is the mesh's normals, which
can be scaled with the "Offset Scale" input.
**Attribute Propagation**
Attributes are transferred to the new elements with specific rules.
Attributes will never change domains for interpolations. Generally
boolean attributes are propagated with "or", meaning any connected
"true" value that is mixed in for other types will cause the new value
to be "true" as well. The `"id"` attribute does not have any special
handling currently.
Vertex Mode
- Vertex: Copied values of selected vertices.
- Edge: Averaged values of selected edges. For booleans, edges are
selected if any connected edges are selected.
Edge Mode
- Vertex: Copied values of extruded vertices.
- Connecting edges (vertical): Average values of connected extruded
edges. For booleans, the edges are selected if any connected
extruded edges are selected.
- Duplicate edges: Copied values of selected edges.
- Face: Averaged values of all faces connected to the selected edge.
For booleans, faces are selected if any connected original faces
are selected.
- Corner: Averaged values of corresponding corners in all faces
connected to selected edges. For booleans, corners are selected
if one of those corners are selected.
Face Mode
- Vertex: Copied values of extruded vertices.
- Connecting edges (vertical): Average values of connected selected
edges, not including the edges "on top" of extruded regions.
For booleans, edges are selected when any connected extruded edges
were selected.
- Duplicate edges: Copied values of extruded edges.
- Face: Copied values of the corresponding selected faces.
- Corner: Copied values of corresponding corners in selected faces.
Individual Face Mode
- Vertex: Copied values of extruded vertices.
- Connecting edges (vertical): Average values of the two neighboring
edges on each extruded face. For booleans, edges are selected
when at least one neighbor on the extruded face was selected.
- Duplicate edges: Copied values of extruded edges.
- Face: Copied values of the corresponding selected faces.
- Corner: Copied values of corresponding corners in selected faces.
**Differences from edit mode**
In face mode (non-individual), the behavior can be different than the
extrude tools in edit mode-- this node doesn't handle keeping the back-
faces around in the cases that the edit mode tools do. The planned
"Solidify" node will handle that use case instead. Keeping this node
simpler and faster is preferable at this point, especially because that
sort of "smart" behavior is not that predictable and makes less sense
in a procedural context.
In the future, an "Even Offset" option could be added to this node
hopefully fairly simply. For now it is left out in order to keep
the patch simpler.
**Implementation**
For the implementation, the `Mesh` data structure is used directly
rather than converting to `BMesh` and back like D12224. This optimizes
for large extrusion operations rather than many sequential extrusions.
While this is potentially more verbose, it has some important benefits:
First, there is no conversion to and from `BMesh`. The code only has
to fill arrays and it can do that all at once, making each component of
the algorithm much easier to optimize. It also makes the attribute
interpolation more explicit, and likely faster. Only limited topology
maps must be created in most cases.
While there are some necessary loops and allocations with the size of
the entire mesh, I tried to keep everything I could on the order of the
size of the selection rather than the size of the mesh. In that respect,
the individual faces mode is the best, since there is no topology
information necessary, and the amount of work just depends on the size
of the selection.
Modifying an existing mesh instead of generating a new one was a bit
of a toss-up, but has a few potential benefits:
- Avoids manually copying over attribute data for original elements.
- Avoids some overhead of creating a new mesh.
- Can potentially take advantage of future ammortized mesh growth.
This could be changed easily if it turns out to be the wrong choice.

This commit improves NURBS knot generation by adding proper support
for the combination of the Bezier and cyclic options. In other cases
the resulting knot doesn't change. This cyclic Bezier knot is used to
create accurate accurate "Nurbs Circle", "Nurbs Cylinder" primitives.
"Nurbs Sphere" and "Nurbs Torus" primitives are also improved by
tweaking the spin operator.
The knot vector in 3rd order NURBS curve with Bezier option turned on
(without cyclic) is changed in comparison to previous calculations,
although it doesn't change the curve shape itself.
The accuracy of the of NURBS circle is fixed, which can be checked by
comparing with mesh circle. Tessellation spacing differences in
circular NURBS is also fixed, which is observable with the NURBS
cylinder and sphere primitives. These were causing seam-like effects.

Currently there is no way to flip normals in geometry nodes. This node
makes that possible by flipping the winding order of selected faces.
The node is purposely not called "Flip Normals", because normals are
derived data, changing them is only a side effect. The real change is
that the vertex and edge indices in the face corners of every selected
polygon are reversed, and face corner attribute data is reversed.
While there are existing utilities to flip a polygon and its custom
data, this node aims to process an attribute's data together instead
of processing all attributes separately for each index.

This adds vertex creasing support for OpenSubDiv for modeling, rendering,
Alembic and USD I/O.
For modeling, vertex creasing follows the edge creasing implementation with an
operator accessible through the Vertex menu in Edit Mode, and some parameter in
the properties panel. The option in the Subsurf and Multires to use edge
creasing also affects vertex creasing.
The vertex crease data is stored as a CustomData layer, unlike edge creases
which for now are stored in `MEdge`, but will in the future also be moved to
a `CustomData` layer. See comments for details on the difference in behavior
for the `CD_CREASE` layer between egdes and vertices.
For Cycles this adds sockets on the Mesh node to hold data about which vertices
are creased (one socket for the indices, one for the weigths).
Viewport rendering of vertex creasing reuses the same color scheme as for edges
and creased vertices are drawn bigger than uncreased vertices.
For Alembic and USD, vertex crease support follows the edge crease
implementation, they are always read, but only exported if a `Subsurf` modifier
is present on the Mesh.

- Add BM_mesh_debug_print & BM_mesh_debug_info.
- Report flags in Mesh.cd_flag in BKE_mesh_debug_print
- Move custom data printing into customdata.cc (noted as a TODO).
Note that the term "runtime" has been removed from
`BKE_mesh_runtime_debug_print` since these are useful for debugging any
kind of mesh data.
Code that handled merging & initializing custom-data from other
meshes sometimes missed checks for this flag, causing bevel weights to
lost when the mesh was converted to a BMesh.
The following changes are a more general fix for T94197.
- Add BM_mesh_copy_init_customdata_from_mesh_array which initializes
custom-data from multiple meshes at once.
As well as initializing custom-data layers from Mesh.cd_flag.
This isn't essential for boolean, however it avoids the overhead of
resizing custom-data layers.
- Loading mesh data into a BMesh now respects Mesh.cd_flag
instead of only checking if the BMesh custom-data-layer exists.
Without this, the order of meshes passed to BM_mesh_bm_from_me could
give different (incorrect) results.
- Copying mesh data now copies `cd_flag` too. This is a precaution
as in my tests evaluating modifiers these values always matched.
Nevertheless it's correct to copy this value as custom-data it's
self is being copied.
This node allows accessing data of other elements in the context geometry.
It is similar to the Transfer Attribute node in Index mode. The main difference
is that this node does not require a geometry input, because the context
is used.
The node can e.g. be used to generalize what the Edge Vertices node is doing.
Instead of only being able to get the position of the vertices of an edge,
any field/attribute can be accessed on the vertices.

"name": ..,
"value": ..,
"type": ..,
/* `subtype` and `length` are only available for IDP_ARRAYs. */
"subtype": ..,

```
| **DNA** | **Serialize type** | **Note** |
| IDProperty.name | StringValue| |
| IDProperty.type | StringValue| "IDP_STRING", "IDP_INT", "IDP_FLOAT", "IDP_ARRAY", "IDP_GROUP", "IDP_DOUBLE"|
| IDProperty.subtype | StringValue| "IDP_INT", "IDP_FLOAT", "IDP_GROUP", "IDP_DOUBLE" |
| IDProperty.value | StringValue | When type is IDP_STRING |
| IDProperty.value | IntValue | When type is IDP_INT |
| IDProperty.value | DoubleValue | When type is IDP_FLOAT/IDP_DOUBLE |
| IDProperty.value | ArrayValue | When type is IDP_GROUP. Recursively uses the same structure as described in this section. |
| IDProperty.value | ArrayValue | When type is IDP_ARRAY. Each element holds a single element as described in this section. |
NOTE: IDP_ID and IDP_IDARRAY aren't supported. The entry will not be added.
Example
```
[
{
"name": "MyIntValue,
"type": "IDP_INT",
"value": 6,
},
{
"name": "myComplexArray",
"type": "IDP_ARRAY",
"subtype": "IDP_GROUP",
"value": [
[
{
"name": ..
....
}
]
]
}
]
```
## Considered alternatives ##
- Add conversion functions inside `asset_indexer`; makes generic code part of a specific solution.
- Add conversion functions inside `BLI_serialize`; would add data transformation responsibilities inside a unit that is currently only responsible for formatting.
- Use direct mapping between IDP properties and Values; leads to missing information and edge cases (empty primitive arrays) that could not be de-serialized.

Typo in rB605cdc4346e5f82, both `eBlendfileLinkAppendForeachItemFlag`

Override layers are a standard feature of Alembic, where archives can override
data from other archives, provided that the hierarchies match.
This is useful for modifying a UV map, updating an animation, or even creating
some sort of LOD system where low resolution meshes are swapped by high resolution
versions.
It is possible to add UV maps and vertex colors using this system, however, they
will only appear in the spreadsheet editor when viewing evaluated data, as the UV
map and Vertex color UI only show data present on the original mesh.
Implementation wise, this adds a `CacheFileLayer` data structure to the `CacheFile`
DNA, as well as some operators and UI to present and manage the layers. For both
the Alembic importer and the Cycles procedural, the main change is creating an
archive from a list of filepaths, instead of a single one.
After importing the base file through the regular import operator, layers can be added
to or removed from the `CacheFile` via the UI list under the `Override Layers` panel
located in the Mesh Sequence Cache modifier. Layers can also be moved around or
hidden.
