This struct is currently defined in the `functions` module but not actually used there. It's only used by the geometry nodes module, with an indirect dependency from blenkernel via simulation zone baking. This scope is problematic when adding grids as socket data, which should not be part of the functions module.
The `ValueOrField` struct is now moved to blenkernel, so it can be more easily extended to other kinds of data that might be passed around by geometry nodes sockets in future. No functional changes.

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
Remove the "_for_read" suffix from methods to get geometry and geometry
components. That should be considered the default, so the suffix just
adds unnecessary text. This is consistent with the attribute API and
various implicit sharing data access methods.
Use "from_mesh" instead of "create_with_mesh". This is consistent with
the recently used naming for the `IndexMask` API.

The goal is to reuse the same bake items for simulation and normal baking (#110137).
Previously, the bake data was tied to a simulation state which made it harder to reuse.
Now the code for the following things can be reused easily:
- Convert geometry node socket values into bake items and back.
- Serialize and deserialize bake items.
