Now that we use internal state info, we require drawing that uses the
GPU api to use it throughout the whole pipeline. This is in order to
track the GL state and do our own error checking.
This remove the complexity of queriying the locations at runtime and
allows for more performance and upfront binding specifications.
The benefit of doing everything at creation time is that we can assign binding
points in a predictable order which is going to be somewhat the same for
every similar shader.
This also rewrite GPU_vertformat_from_shader to not use shaderface.
This is to keep the shaderface simple. If it becomes necessary to not query
the shader after creation (i.e: vulkan?) we could just create the vert
format in advance at compilation for PyGPU shaders.

We would previously not store the transforms that were added to the
group transform node. This would lead to pointer to allocated memory
being lost and not freed.
- Unlock property range.
- Use triangular noise to keep perceptual noise error more uniform.
Remap range to preserve perceptual intensity.
- Center noise distribution around 0 for GPU implementation because of
rounding.
- Do dithering after merging overlays.
Effect of using triangular noise is not really noticeable if you don't use
really low bitdepth. But doing a test in the shader were we artificially
reduce the bitdepth (`col = (col * 16) / 16;`) reveals the real difference.

This is a more correct fix to the issue Brecht was fixing in D6600.
While the fix in that patch worked fine for linking it broke ASAN
runtime under some circumstances.
For example, `make full debug developer` would compile, but trying
to start blender will cause assert failure in ASAN (related on check
that ASAN is not running already).
Top-level idea: leave it to CMake to keep track of dependency graph.
The root of the issue comes to the fact that target like "blender" is
configured to use a lot of static libraries coming from Blender sources
and to use external static libraries. There is nothing which ensures
order between blender's and external libraries. Only order of blender
libraries is guaranteed.
It was possible that due to a cycle or other circumstances some of
blender libraries would have been passed to linker after libraries
it uses, causing linker errors.
For example, this order will likely fail:
libbf_blenfont.a libfreetype6.a libbf_blenfont.a
This change makes it so blender libraries are explicitly provided
their dependencies to an external libraries, which allows CMake to
ensure they are always linked against them.
General rule here: if bf_foo depends on an external library it is
to be provided to LIBS for bf_foo.
For example, if bf_blenkernel depends on opensubdiv then LIBS in
blenkernel's CMakeLists.txt is to include OPENSUBDIB_LIBRARIES.
The change is made based on searching for used include folders
such as OPENSUBDIV_INCLUDE_DIRS and adding corresponding libraries
to LIBS ion that CMakeLists.txt. Transitive dependencies are not
simplified by this approach, but I am not aware of any downside of
this: CMake should be smart enough to simplify them on its side.
And even if not, this shouldn't affect linking time.
Benefit of not relying on transitive dependencies is that build
system is more robust towards future changes. For example, if
bf_intern_opensubiv is no longer depends on OPENSUBDIV_LIBRARIES
and all such code is moved to bf_blenkernel this will not break
linking.
The not-so-trivial part is change to blender_add_lib (and its
version in Cycles). The complexity is caused by libraries being
provided as a single list argument which doesn't allow to use
different release and debug libraries on Windows. The idea is:
- Have every library prefixed as "optimized" or "debug" if
separation is needed (non-prefixed libraries will be considered
"generic").
- Loop through libraries passed to function and do simple parsing
which will look for "optimized" and "debug" words and specify
following library to corresponding category.
This isn't something particularly great. Alternative would be to
use target_link_libraries() directly, which sounds like more code
but which is more explicit and allows to have more flexibility
and control comparing to wrapper approach.
Tested the following configurations on Linux, macOS and Windows:
- make full debug developer
- make full release developer
- make lite debug developer
- make lite release developer
NOTE: Linux libraries needs to be compiled with D6641 applied,
otherwise, depending on configuration, it's possible to run into
duplicated zlib symbols error.

Extend options are currently stored per curve. This was not clearly
communicated to the user and they expected this to be a setting per
CurveMapping.
This change will move the option from `Curve` to `CurveMapping`. In
order to support this the API had to be changed.
BPY: CurveMap.evaluate is also moved to CurveMapping.evaluate what
breaks Python API. Cycles has been updated but other add-ons have
not. After release of 2.81 we can merge this to master and adapt
the add-ons.

Cycles now uses the color space on the image datablock, and uses OpenColorIO
to convert to scene linear as needed. Byte images do not take extra memory,
they are compressed in scene linear + sRGB transfer function which in common
cases is a no-op.
Eevee and workbench were changed to work similar. Float images are stored as
scene linear. Byte images are compressed as scene linear + sRGB and stored in
a GL_SRGB8_ALPHA8 texture. From the GLSL shader side this means they are read
as scene linear, simplifying the code and taking advantage of hardware support.
Further, OpenGL image textures are now all stored with premultiplied alpha.
Eevee texture sampling looks a little different now because interpolation
happens premultiplied and in scene linear space.
Overlays and grease pencil work in sRGB space so those now have an extra
conversion to sRGB after reading from image textures. This is not particularly
elegant but as long as engines use different conventions, one or the other
needs to do conversion.
This change breaks compatibility for cases where multiple image texture nodes
were using the same image with different color space node settings. However it
gives more predictable behavior for baking and texture painting if save, load
and image editing operations have a single color space to handle.

Now that B-Bone shape data is kept in bPoseChannel_Runtime, the
armature level cache only holds one quaternion value per bone.
It can also be moved to runtime, and the structure removed.
This has an additional effect that, as far as I can tell, now
the Armature modifier can run as soon as all of the bones it
actually needs are done, thus making T59848 a purely depsgraph
level problem.
No functional change, this adds LIB definition and args to cmake files.
Without this it's difficult to migrate away from 'BLENDER_SORTED_LIBS'
since there are many platforms/configurations that could break when
changing linking order.
Manually add and enable WITHOUT_SORTED_LIBS to try building
without sorted libs (currently fails since all variables are empty).
This check will eventually be removed.

This fixes our workaround for until proper solution is accepted
in upstream.
Now, when default view behaves same as it was supposed to (and
as it behaves in OCIO-1.0.9) it is obvious that our configuration
violates own design -- default view is used for cases when
images don't want to be displays using "render" settings.
This is something what is caused by OCIO library. The patch
has been submitted there:
https://github.com/imageworks/OpenColorIO/pull/638
For until it is refined and checked we do workaround from
our side.
This does not include all the struct and type renaming. Only files were

The Issue
=======
For a long time now MinGW has been unsupported and unmaintained and at this point,
it looks like something that we should just leave behind and move on.
Why Remove
==========
One of the big motivations for MinGW back in the day is that it was free compared to MSVC which was licensed based.
However, now that this is no longer true we have basically stopped updating the need CMake files.
Along with the CMake files, there are several patches to the extern libs needed to make this work. For example, see:
https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/master/extern/carve/patches/mingw_w64.patch
If we wanted to keep MinGW then we would need to make more custom patches to the external libs and
this is not something our platform maintainers are willing to do.
For example, here is the patches needed to build python: https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-python3

This eliminates tons of glGetUniformLocation calls from the drawing loop. Vast majority of code can keep making the same function calls. They're just faster now!
- Batch_Uniform*
- immUniform*
- gpuBindMatrices
- and others
Quite handy for debugging.
Unfortunately, this doesn't support viewport tweaks yet since those
require GLSL for colorspace conversion. Maybe this will be implemented
as well one day in the future..
Was a ground work for some more improvements here, but got dragged
to some other studio maintenance job here.
The plan would be to enable exposure/gamma control for fallback mode
which will definitely be really handy for development and might be
handy for cases when OCIO config can not be read.
