Delete Branch "Jeroen-Bakker:eevee-legacy-macos-ati"
Deleting a branch is permanent. It CANNOT be undone. Continue?
Due to compatibility issues between legacy Intel drivers that doesn't
unroll macros as expected we added an underscore before the attribute
name to make a distinction between the macro name and the variable it
needs to access. This fails on MacOS/ATI resulting in failing to
render Eevee on those devices. Issue happens both on Metal and OpenGL
backend.
This is a quick fix to support both issues until we have a better
solution or that Eevee is replaced.

@Sergey can you check if the package works for you (both Metal and OpenGL) should be checked.
I might have a system back home able to test the intel driver, but otherwise we should ask the community.

The issue with this approach is that it might trigger recursive expansion error on some drivers (like the one fixed by #106535).
@Jeroen-Bakker Unfortunately, the monkey is still invisible in my startup file :(
Note that it has been validated that this change works on Metal, but not yet on OpenGL. I will update this patch to fix this for opengl as well as we should still
support opengl on MacOS devices for now.

Current state is that on main MacOS/ATI doesn't work using OpenGL. It does work when using Metal. This patch doesn't seem to change anything compared to main.
Next step to do is to check if the workaround is enabled when using this specific platform.

@Caco-Oportot Can you create a report for that. It doesn't seem to be related to what we are trying to fix here. Thanks!
Sorry @Jeroen-Bakker, I posted here because my bug report #106702 was marked to be fixed/deleted by this. I installed the PR106786 build and all the issues persist. My bad.
