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.
This patch adds support for node previews for shader operations, making
node previews fully supported.
The patch was started as an effort to refactor the compositor compiler
to split the shader operators when node previews increase past hardware
limits. However, I realized that the better approach would be to remove
those limits altogether by using texture arrays instead of individual
textures for operation results, then use texture views to slice that
array. This is not implemented in this patch and will require some
prerequisites, namely adding target conversion to GPU texture views as
well as support texture arrays in the DRW texture pool.

This patch adds support for node previews in the realtime compositor.
Only node operations have previews for now. Shader nodes likes the
MixRGB node does not have previews implemented yet due to required
sizable changes in the node compiler.
Depends on: #108900.

A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:

This patch adds the core realtime compositor evaluator as well as a
compositor draw engine powered by the evaluator that operates in the
viewport. The realtime compositor is a new GPU accelerated compositor
that will be used to power the viewport compositor imminently as well as
the existing compositor in the future.
This patch only adds the evaluator and engine as an experimental
feature, the implementation of the nodes themselves will be committed
separately.
