This reduces the number of separate memory allocations done
by the multi-function procedure executor (which is used by the
field evaluation).
Now a linear memory allocator is used to allocate all intermediate
values. Furthermore, more buffers are reused when possible. This
reduces the total amount of allocated memory and improves
cache efficiency because the values are more likely to be in cache
already.
The performance improvement of this patch are most noticable
when few elements are processed by many functions. The situation
will improve even more with D13548, because then buffers can actually
be reused in practice. I measured up to 20% faster field evaluation
in extreme cases with this change.
This patch exposes the vector handle options as buttons
and aligns the UI between CurveMap and CurveProfile more closely.
- CurveMap point editing is on a single row like CurveProfile
- Tools menu is moved to the right hand side on both widgets
- Emboss curve map buttons

Calling `foreach_field_input` on a highly nested field (we do that
often) has an exponential running time in the number of nodes.
That is because the same node may be visited many times.
This made Blender freeze on some setups that should work just fine.
Now every field keeps track of its inputs all the time. That replaces
the exponential algorithm with constant time access.
The const argument makes sense because these are the "source"
sockets, even though a const cast is necessary at one point.
The name "interface_socket" is an improvement over "stemp"
because the latter sounds like "temporary", or it confuses
the old socket template system with a node group's interface.
I assume this `butr` rectangle was used more in the past,
but currently its value is set and used less than 10 lines apart,
so it's trivial to remove 16 bytes from every node. The other
rectangles are also runtime data and could be removed, but
they are more difficult.
This reverts commit 943aed0de3 and f76e04bf4d
The latter caused a test failure: `sequencer_render_transform`
Reverting since the fix is not obvious (to me), and people are
away for the weekend.
Most of the fields in Mesh had no comments, or outdated misleading
comments. For example, "BMESH ONLY" referred to the BMesh project,
not the data structure. Given how much these structs are used, it should
save a lot of time to have proper comments.
I also rearranged the fields in mesh to have a more logical order. Now
the most important fields come first. In the process I was able to
remove 19 bytes of unnecessary padding (31->12). I just had to
change a `short` flag to `char`.

This patch replaces `round_fl_to_int` with `floor` and adjusts the
maximum value accordingly. The call to `round_fl_to_int` is problematic
here because it messes with the probability distribution at the edges
of the value range, meaning the first and last values were only half
as common as all other values. Since `round_fl_to_int` does
`floor(val + 0.5)`, it will not introduce misbehavior in edge cases.

Improvement of the IMB_transform function by separating the UVWrapping
method from the color interpolation function. This would allow us to
perform uv wrapping operations separate from the interpolation function.
Currently this wrapping is only supported when interpolating colors.
This change would allow us to perform it on non-color image buffers.
Reduce the inner loop of IMB_transform by extracting writing to an
output buffer in a template. This reduces a branch in the inner loop and
would allow different number of channels in the future.
Some doc-strings were skipped because of blank-lines between
the doc-string and the symbol and needed to be moved manually.
- Added space below non doc-string comments to make it clear
these aren't comments for the symbols directly below them.
- Use doxy sections for some headers.

When loading huge images (30k) blender crashed with a buffer overflow.
The reason is that determine the length of a buffer was done in 32bit
precision and afterwards stored in 64 bit precision.
This patch adds a new function to do the correct calculation in 64bit.
It should be added to other sections in blender as well. But that should
be tested on a per case situation.
When rendering volume surfaces in unbounded worlds the volume stepping can produce large values. If used with a magic texture node the values can results in a Inf float which when used in a sin or cos produces a NaN.
To fix this the input values are mapped into the periodic range of the sin and cos functions (-2*PI 2*PI) this stops the possibility of a Inf occurring and thus the NaN. It also improves the accuracy and smoothness of the result due to loss of precision when large values are summed with smaller ones effectively removing the parts of the smaller number (i.e. those in the -2PI to 2PI range) that result in variation of the output of sin and cos.

In the `replace_mesh`/`replace_curve` etc. methods, the component
was retrieved with write access. Retrieving with write access will
duplicate the data if the component has another user. This means that
the replaced geometry data was often duplicated just to be deleted
a moment later.
I expect this would have a large impact in performance in some specific
situations when dealing with large geometry. In a scene with many small
meshes though, I didn't observe a significant difference.
This also makes replacing a geometry set's data with the same data
that's already in the set safe. It would be valid to assert for that
case instead, but this seems safer.

I'm planning to make these functions slightly more complicated,
and it makes sense to return early when checking one of the parameters
for null anyway.
This node outputs the current scene time in seconds or in frames.
Use of this node eliminates the need to use drivers to control values
in the node tree that are driven by the scene time.
Frame is a float value to provide for subframe rendering for motion
blur.

The corresponding vertex group was renamed properly, but the armature
influence was broken for that bone.
Caused by {rB3b6ee8cee708}.
Since above commit, vertex group names are stored on object data (mesh/
lattice/gpencil) and if we update these, we have to inform dependency
graph to have immediate effect.

This was an issue with the mixed list of external assets and assets from
the current file. When closing the File Browser to select the custom
preview image, the assets from the current file would be cleared for
reread, to make sure we display up-to-date file data. That is because
the workspace of the temporary File Browser was deleted, causing a
change in the file data (main data-base). The reread would happen in a
background thread, meaning it might not finish before the custom preview
operator runs and queries the active asset. So the preview operator
would get the wrong active asset from context.
Two fixes were needed:
* Make sure current file data is reread before the operator runs, by
doing this partial rereading on the main thread.
* Ensure the asset list (in fact file list) order stays consistent over
rereads. If multiple assets with the same name were shown, the
operator might also have gotten the wrong asset, also leading to a
crash.
Additionally the file operation handler should probably poll before
executing, to fail gracefully at least (not crash).
A crash happened when `instance_id_attribute` further down in the
function was null. This issue was probably introduced when the
id attribute starting using generic attribute handling.
* Correct URL for documentation (was changed recently).
* Add comments.
* Reevaluate and update which functions are public, protected or
private.
* Reorder functions and classes to be more logical and readable.
* Add helper class for the public item API so individual functions it
uses can be made protected/private (the helper class is a friend).
Also allows splitting API implementation from the C-API.
* Move internal layout builder helper class to the source file, out of
the header.
* More consistent naming.
* Add alias for item-container, so it's more clear how it can be used.
* Use const.
* Remove unnecessary forward declaration.
Adds some basic high-level explanations for editor/UI level asset APIs.
Also moves one such comment from the source file to the header file,
so it's in the same file as other API comments.
Autocomplete entires keep track of the length of the prefix
in `name_prefix_offset`. However, the name matching logic
was comparing the string including the prefix which resulted
in tab-completion not working (when the user didn't also type
in the prefix, typically two whitespaces).
This is fixed by passing in a char pointer after the end of
the prefix.
Additionally, some searchbox logic is moved. Previously,
`ui_searchbox_apply` would clear the entry which would mean
that `ui_searchbox_find_index` would never succeed. Now the
search box is only cleared if no match was found.
