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.
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:

Goals of this refactor:
* Reduce memory consumption of `IndexMask`. The old `IndexMask` uses an
`int64_t` for each index which is more than necessary in pretty much all
practical cases currently. Using `int32_t` might still become limiting
in the future in case we use this to index e.g. byte buffers larger than
a few gigabytes. We also don't want to template `IndexMask`, because
that would cause a split in the "ecosystem", or everything would have to
be implemented twice or templated.
* Allow for more multi-threading. The old `IndexMask` contains a single
array. This is generally good but has the problem that it is hard to fill
from multiple-threads when the final size is not known from the beginning.
This is commonly the case when e.g. converting an array of bool to an
index mask. Currently, this kind of code only runs on a single thread.
* Allow for efficient set operations like join, intersect and difference.
It should be possible to multi-thread those operations.
* It should be possible to iterate over an `IndexMask` very efficiently.
The most important part of that is to avoid all memory access when iterating
over continuous ranges. For some core nodes (e.g. math nodes), we generate
optimized code for the cases of irregular index masks and simple index ranges.
To achieve these goals, a few compromises had to made:
* Slicing of the mask (at specific indices) and random element access is
`O(log #indices)` now, but with a low constant factor. It should be possible
to split a mask into n approximately equally sized parts in `O(n)` though,
making the time per split `O(1)`.
* Using range-based for loops does not work well when iterating over a nested
data structure like the new `IndexMask`. Therefor, `foreach_*` functions with
callbacks have to be used. To avoid extra code complexity at the call site,
the `foreach_*` methods support multi-threading out of the box.
The new data structure splits an `IndexMask` into an arbitrary number of ordered
`IndexMaskSegment`. Each segment can contain at most `2^14 = 16384` indices. The
indices within a segment are stored as `int16_t`. Each segment has an additional
`int64_t` offset which allows storing arbitrary `int64_t` indices. This approach
has the main benefits that segments can be processed/constructed individually on
multiple threads without a serial bottleneck. Also it reduces the memory
requirements significantly.
For more details see comments in `BLI_index_mask.hh`.
I did a few tests to verify that the data structure generally improves
performance and does not cause regressions:
* Our field evaluation benchmarks take about as much as before. This is to be
expected because we already made sure that e.g. add node evaluation is
vectorized. The important thing here is to check that changes to the way we
iterate over the indices still allows for auto-vectorization.
* Memory usage by a mask is about 1/4 of what it was before in the average case.
That's mainly caused by the switch from `int64_t` to `int16_t` for indices.
In the worst case, the memory requirements can be larger when there are many
indices that are very far away. However, when they are far away from each other,
that indicates that there aren't many indices in total. In common cases, memory
usage can be way lower than 1/4 of before, because sub-ranges use static memory.
* For some more specific numbers I benchmarked `IndexMask::from_bools` in
`index_mask_from_selection` on 10.000.000 elements at various probabilities for
`true` at every index:
```
Probability Old New
0 4.6 ms 0.8 ms
0.001 5.1 ms 1.3 ms
0.2 8.4 ms 1.8 ms
0.5 15.3 ms 3.0 ms
0.8 20.1 ms 3.0 ms
0.999 25.1 ms 1.7 ms
1 13.5 ms 1.1 ms

Drawing code `paint_draw_smooth_cursor` would be called correctly, it
was just the color not being initialized.
This is usually done with `BKE_paint_init`, but in the case of curves
sculpting brushes this would create an additional (unnamed) brush which
should be avoided since the workspace toolsystem creates the "right"
brush anyways.
So this patch just does the minimal work to get the Stabilize Stroke
indicator line to draw (which is initializing the color).

This replaces `GPU_SHADER_3D_POINT_FIXED_SIZE_VARYING_COLOR` by
GPU_SHADER_2D_POINT_UNIFORM_SIZE_UNIFORM_COLOR_OUTLINE_AA`.
None of the usage made sense to not use the AA shader.
Scale the point size to account for the rounded shape.
Straightforward port. I took the oportunity to remove some C vector
functions (ex: copy_v2_v2).
This makes some changes to DRWView to accomodate the alignement
requirements of the float4x4 type.

This changes how we access the points that correspond to each curve in a `CurvesGeometry`.
Previously, `CurvesGeometry::points_for_curve(int curve_index) -> IndexRange`
was called for every curve in many loops. Now one has to call
`CurvesGeometry::points_by_curve() -> OffsetIndices` before the
loop and use the returned value inside the loop.
While this is a little bit more verbose in general, it has some benefits:
* Better standardization of how "offset indices" are used. The new data
structure can be used independent of curves.
* Allows for better data oriented design. Generally, we want to retrieve
all the arrays we need for a loop first and then do the processing.
Accessing the old `CurvesGeometry::points_for_curve(...)` did not follow
that design because it hid the underlying offset array.
* Makes it easier to pass the offsets to a function without having to
pass the entire `CurvesGeometry`.
* Can improve performance in theory due to one less memory access
because `this` does not have to be dereferenced every time.
This likely doesn't have a noticable impact in practice.

Use the same `".selection"` attribute for both curve and point domains,
instead of a different name for each. The attribute can now have
either boolean or float type. Some tools create boolean selections.
Other tools create float selections. Some tools "upgrade" the attribute
from boolean to float.
Edit mode tools that create selections from scratch can create boolean
selections, but edit mode should generally be able to handle both
selection types. Sculpt mode should be able to read boolean selections,
but can also and write float values between zero and one.
Theoretically we could just always use floats to store selections,
but the type-agnosticism doesn't cost too much complexity given the
existing APIs for dealing with it, and being able to use booleans is
clearer in edit mode, and may allow future optimizations like more
efficient ways to store boolean attributes.
The attribute API is usually used directly for accessing the selection
attribute. We rely on implicit type conversion and domain interpolation
to simplify the rest of the code.

For one, paintcurves were not considered in curves sculpt mode at all
(so you couldnt draw them). This is now enabled.
And the second issue was that since curves sculpt mode uses the reguar
paint_stroke_modal() [which handles paintcurves], this was actually
excuted, freeing the PaintStroke from SculptCurvesBrushStrokeData (but
not the CurvesSculptStrokeOperation) and immediately return
OPERATOR_FINISHED from modal (resulting in a double MEM_delete of
SculptCurvesBrushStrokeData -- in both invoke and modal).
There might be better ways to handle the memory free, for now the double
freeing is prevented by setting the operator customdata to NULL (and
check for that later).

Motivation is to disambiguate on the naming level what the matrix
actually means. It is very easy to understand the meaning backwards,
especially since in Python the name goes the opposite way (it is
called `world_matrix` in the Python API).
It is important to disambiguate the naming without making developers
to look into the comment in the header file (which is also not super
clear either). Additionally, more clear naming facilitates the unit
verification (or, in this case, space validation) when reading an
expression.
This patch calls the matrix `object_to_world` which makes it clear
from the local code what is it exactly going on. This is only done
on DNA level, and a lot of local variables still follow the old
naming.
A DNA rename is setup in a way that there is no change on the file
level, so there should be no regressions at all.
The possibility is to add `_matrix` or `_mat` suffix to the name
to make it explicit that it is a matrix. Although, not sure if it
really helps the readability, or is it something redundant.

This is the conventional way of dealing with unused arguments in C++,
since it works on all compilers.
Regex find and replace: `UNUSED\((\w+)\)` -> `/*$1*/`
The only real difference between `GPU_SHADER_2D_UNIFORM_COLOR` and
`GPU_SHADER_3D_UNIFORM_COLOR` is that in the vertex shader the 2D
version uses `vec4(pos, 0.0, 1.0)` and the 3D version uses
`vec4(pos, 1.0)`.
But VBOs with 2D attributes work perfectly in shaders that use 3D
attributes. Components not specified are filled with components from
`vec4(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0)`.
So there is no real benefit to having two different shader versions.
This will simplify porting shaders to python as it will not be
necessary to use a 3D and a 2D version of the shaders.
In python the new name for '2D_UNIFORM_COLOR'' and '3D_UNIFORM_COLOR'
is 'UNIFORM_COLOR', but the old names still work for backward
compatibility.

`parallel_invoke` allows executing functions on separate threads.
However, creating tasks in tbb has a measurable amount of overhead.
Therefore, it can be benefitial to disable parallelization when
the amount of work done per function is small.

The "snap to surface" operators now have "disabled" poll messages
when there is no surface object.
The implementation in most curves operators is also unified.
The goal is to avoid having to define and use the poll failure messages
in multiple places, to reduce the boilerplate that tends to be
necessary to add an operator, and to increase the likelihood that
operators are implemented with proper poll messages.

Previously, curves sculpt tools only worked on original data. This was
very limiting, because one could effectively only sculpt the curves when
all procedural effects were turned off. This patch adds support for curves
sculpting while looking the result of procedural effects (like deformation
based on the surface mesh). This functionality is also known as "crazy space"
support in Blender.

The stroke code now supports raycasting the original mesh.
This fixes anchored mode not working for negative brushes,
which might move the mesh out of the initial mouse cursor
position.
This commit contains various new features for curves sculpt mode
that have been developed in parallel.
* Selection:
* Operator to select points/curves randomly.
* Operator to select endpoints of curves.
* Operator to grow/shrink an existing selection.
* New Brushes:
* Pinch: Moves points towards the brush center.
* Smooth: Makes individual curves straight without changing the root
or tip position.
* Puff: Makes curves stand up, aligning them with the surface normal.
* Density: Add or remove curves to achieve a certain density defined
by a minimum distance value.
* Slide: Move root points on the surface.

Tagging the object for copy on write in order to change the mode on the
evaluated object was already done when entering sculpt mode, it should
happen when exiting sculpt mode as well.
Also use the message system to tag updates of the mode property.
This is commonly done for other "mode switch" operators. It's
best to be consistent here, though I don't know that lacking that
caused any issues.
This patch fixes T90120. The fundamental problem is that 2d and the old 3d paint modes share a single Paint struct, ToolSettings->imapaint. This patch is a temporary fix until the new 3d paint mode (which has its own Paint struct) is released.
The patch works by listening for `NC_SCENE|ND_MODE` inside `image_listener` in `space_image.c`. It does not use `ED_space_image_paint_update` since that requires a `bMain.` Instead it calls `paint_cursor_start` (which is promoted to `ED_paint_cursor_start`). `image_paint_poll` is also promoted to an `ED_` function.
