Implement the next phases of bounds improvement design #96968.
Mainly the following changes:
Don't use `Object.runtime.bb` for performance caching volume bounds.
This is redundant with the cache in most geometry data-block types.
Instead, this becomes `Object.runtime.bounds_eval`, and is only used
where it's actually needed: syncing the bounds from the evaluated
geometry in the active depsgraph to the original object.
Remove all redundant functions to access geometry bounds with an
Object argument. These make the whole design confusing, since they
access geometry bounds at an object level.
Use `std::optional<Bounds<float3>>` to pass and store bounds instead
of an allocated `BoundBox` struct. This uses less space, avoids
small heap allocations, and generally simplifies code, since we
usually only want the min and max anyway.
After this, to avoid performance regressions, we should also cache
bounds in volumes, and maybe the legacy curve and GP data types
(though it might not be worth the effort for those legacy types).

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

With the ultimate goal of simplifying drawing and evaluation,
this patch makes the following changes and removes code:
- Use `Mesh` instead of `DispList` for evaluated basis metaballs.
- Remove all `DispList` drawing code, which is now unused.
- Simplify code that converts evaluated metaballs to meshes.
- Store the evaluated mesh in the evaluated geometry set.
This has the following indirect benefits:
- Evaluated meshes from metaball objects can be used in geometry nodes.
- Renderers can ignore evaluated metaball objects completely
- Cycles rendering no longer has to convert to mesh from `DispList`.
- We get closer to removing `DispList` completely.
- Optimizations to mesh rendering will also apply to metaball objects.
The vertex normals on the evaluated mesh are technically invalid;
the regular calculation wouldn't reproduce them. Metaball objects
don't support modifiers though, so it shouldn't be a problem.
Eventually we can support per-vertex custom normals (T93551).

Revealed by rB43167a2c251b, but actuall issue is the
`rna_MetaBall_update_data` function expecting a never-NULL `scene`
pointer, which is not guaranteed.
This lead to refactoring the duo
`rna_MetaBall_update_data`/`BKE_mball_properties_copy`, since it was
doing a very sub-optimal O(n^2) process, new code is O(2n) now
(n being the number of Objects).
Not sure why the objects were processed through the existing bases of
the existing scene in the first place, this could miss a lot of affected
objects (e.g. in case said objects are in an excluded collection, etc.).
Also noticed that both old and new implementation can fail to fully propagate
changes to all affected meta-balls in some specific corner cases, added
a comment about it in the code.

Those were only shallow wrappers around `BKE_id_copy`, barely used (even
fully unused in some cases), and we want to get rid of those ID-specific
helpers for the common ID management tasks. Also prevents weird custom
behaviors (like `BKE_object_copy`, who was the only basic ID copy
function to reset user count of the new copy to zero).

Instead of using anonymous booleans flags, also allows to keep the same
behavior in all cases, without needing special handling from calling
code for our beloved oddballs object proxies...
This removes `VIEW3D_OT_select_or_deselect_all`, adding a
deselect_all option to the `VIEW3D_OT_select` operator.
- Add utility functions to simplify de-selecting all.
- Return true from selection functions when they change the selection
to avoid redundant updates.
- Use arrays of bases when passing objects between selection utility

the first hit.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,

Compared to previous implementation, the following has been changed:
* Threshold: is now an absolute value. This allows a comparison with e.g. radii
that are much larger than selected radius. This is also consistent with
`CURVE_OT_select_similar`
* Radius in world space is the average of the radius scaled in x, y and z
directions
* Since MetaBalls are symmetrical, rotation is only considered from 0 to π/2.
So for example rotations of 90° and -90° are considered equal.
This is also consistent with the way `CURVE_OT_select_similar` works.
Fix/changes from committer (Dalai Felinto):
* Drawing not updating after changes. (see original patch for details).

DATA datablock must evaluation must never depend on object it is
used for. If there is something what depends on an object, it must
be done on object level.
At least the actual callback was empty.
The depsgraph was always created within a fixed evaluation context. Passing
both risks the depsgraph and evaluation context not matching, and it
complicates the Python API where we'd have to expose both which is not so
easy to understand.
This also removes the global evaluation context in main, which assumed there
to be a single active scene and view layer.

2.8x branch added bContext arg in many places,
pass eval-context instead since its not simple to reason about what
what nested functions do when they can access and change almost anything.
Also use const to prevent unexpected modifications.
This fixes crash loading files with shadows,
since off-screen buffers use a NULL context for rendering.
This will allow much finer controll over how we copy data-blocks, from
full copy in Main database, to "lighter" ones (out of Main, inside an
already allocated datablock, etc.).
This commit also transfers a llot of what was previously handled by
per-ID-type custom code to generic ID handling code in BKE_library.
Hopefully will avoid in future inconsistencies and missing bits we had
all over the codebase in the past.
It also adds missing copying handling for a few types, most notably
Scene (which where using a fully customized handling previously).
Note that the type of allocation used during copying (regular in Main,
allocated but outside of Main, or not allocated by ID handling code at
all) is stored in ID's, which allows to handle them correctly when
freeing. This needs to be taken care of with caution when doing 'weird'
unusual things with ID copying and/or allocation!
As a final note, while rather noisy, this commit will hopefully not
break too much existing branches, old 'API' has been kept for the main
part, as a wrapper around new code. Cleaning it up will happen later.

Noisy change, but safe, and better do it sooner than later if we are to
rework copying code. Also, previous commit shows this *is* useful to
catch some mistakes.
Turns out most BKE_foo_make_local datablock-specific functions are actually doing
exactly the same thing, only two currently need special additional operations
(object and brush ones). So added a BKE_id_make_local_generic instead
of copying same code over and over.
Also, changed a bit how make_local works in case we are localizing a whole library.
We need to do the 'remap' step (from old linked ID to new local one) in the second loop,
otherwise we miss some dependencies. This fixes main part of T48907.
This commit changes a lot of how IDs are handled internally, especially the unlinking/freeing
processes. So far, this was very fuzy, to summarize cleanly deleting or replacing a datablock
was pretty much impossible, except for a few special cases.
Also, unlinking was handled by each datatype, in a rather messy and prone-to-errors way (quite
a few ID usages were missed or wrongly handled that way).
One of the main goal of id-remap branch was to cleanup this, and fatorize ID links handling
by using library_query utils to allow generic handling of those, which is now the case
(now, generic ID links handling is only "knwon" from readfile.c and library_query.c).
This commit also adds backends to allow live replacement and deletion of datablocks in Blender
(so-called 'remapping' process, where we replace all usages of a given ID pointer by a new one,
or NULL one in case of unlinking).
This will allow nice new features, like ability to easily reload or relocate libraries, real immediate
deletion of datablocks in blender, replacement of one datablock by another, etc.
Some of those are for next commits.
A word of warning: this commit is highly risky, because it affects potentially a lot in Blender core.
Though it was tested rather deeply, being totally impossible to check all possible ID usage cases,
it's likely there are some remaining issues and bugs in new code... Please report them! ;)

Idea is, instead of ignoring completely missing linked datablocks, to
create void placeholders for them.
That way, you can work on your file, save it, and find again your missing data once
lib becomes available again. Or you can edit missing lib's path (in Outliner),
save and reload the file, and you are done.
Also, Outliner now shows broken libraries (and placeholders) with a 'broken lib' icon.
Future plans are also to be able to relocate missing libs and reload them at runtime.
Code notes:
- Placeholder ID is just a regular datablock of same type as expected linked one,
with 'default' data, and a LIB_MISSING bitflag set.
- To allow creation of such datablocks, creation of datablocks in BKE was split in two step:
+ Allocation of memory itself.
+ Setting of all internal data to default values.
