In older versions the ms crt was only a few dlls, in recent versions
this jumped to over 40 leading to quite a bit of clutter in our
bin folder.
This change moves the CRT into its own folder.
For developers that generally already have the runtime globaly
available on their machine, there is a new cmake option
(WITH_WINDOWS_BUNDLE_CRT, default ON) that you can use to toggle
installing the runtime to the blender bin folder, and save some
time during the initial build, this option is off by default for
only the developer profile.

We had a manifest file, but it was seemingly not used, some
settings were done using linker pragmas, some of them visual
studio would set by default for us, others where not set at all.
This patch changes:
- Single manifest file where we can maintain all settings in
a single location, removal of any linker pragmas related to
the manifest.
- Compatibly settings for win vista - win10, without this any
call to any of the GetVersion and related functions (GetVersionEx,
VerifyVersionInfo, IsWindowsXxxx) will by default say we are
on vista and OS specific optimizations in external libraries may
be missed.
-Rather than having it in the .RC file in an #ifdef which may
or may not trigger depending on the build tool used, we tell
cmake to treat it as a source file and it will do the right
thing for both the ninja and visual studio generators.

This was added years ago to prepare for code-signing the executable
but was never used, buildbots use a different mechanism now to sign
so no need to keep this around.
This changes integrates code signing steps into a buildbot worker
process.
The configuration requires having a separate machine running with
a shared folder access between the signing machine and worker machine.
Actual signing is happening as a "POST-INSTALL" script run by CMake,
which allows to sign any binary which ends up in the final bundle.
Additionally, such way allows to avoid signing binaries in the build
folder (if we were signing as a built process, which iwas another
alternative).
Such complexity is needed on platforms which are using CPack to
generate final bundle: CPack runs INSTALL target into its own location,
so it is useless to run signing on a folder which is considered INSTALL
by the buildbot worker.
There is a signing script which can be used as a standalone tool,
making it possible to hook up signing for macOS's bundler.
There is a dummy Linux signer implementation, which can be activated
by returning True from mock_codesign in linux_code_signer.py.
Main purpose of this signer is to give an ability to develop the
scripts on Linux environment, without going to Windows VM.
The code is based on D6036 from Nathan Letwory.

The heap on windows is single threaded causing it to lag behind linux in performance in allocation heavy multithreaded scenarios, BVH building is a prime example.
See https://developer.blender.org/D6218 for benchmark results
for testing with the allocator enabled/disabled you can set the environment variable TBB_MALLOC_DISABLE_REPLACEMENT=1 to disable the TBB allocator.

Removes custom logic from buildbot's packing step.
This also removes icons/ folder, but CMake was already copying the
icons to the root of the install folder.
They were detected as (false positive) malware with ClamAV. It's unlikely
someone would need these files, and e.g. the Debian Python package also
excludes them with a custom patch.
Previously this was done in the deps builder due to the fact we needed
both 32 and 64 bit versions of this dll and CMAKE does not support that
in a single build folder. Now that 32 bit support has been dropped, this
can be safely moved into the codebase.

Occasionally we get reports of people that build blender and end up
with either build errors or end up with builds that do not run on
other systems. The root cause is when you install vpckg and integrate
it into the build system it puts the search path for its includes and
libraries before anything else.
previously we told people to either uninstall vcpkg or remove the
conflicting packages, which was not great.
this change opts out of the use of vcpkg for blender only, so people
can keep using it for other work without issues.
Using a capitalized app name fits the platform guidelines. Since macOS file
systems are case insensitive by default this should not break scripts that
assume lowercase.
Every time you build cmake it unpacks numpy. It is seemingly
very unhappy with OUTPUTS being directories rather than files.
The creating of the directory is not needed, so that step was easy
to resolve, next problem: was there was not a target that outputs
the tarball so it too was deemed out of date. Losing that dependency
as well, fixes the issue, while this is not great if we ever update
the libs in svn, we are planning to drastically change the way we
package python for windows so this is ok for now, but needs to be
addressed with the next python update, T65547 is the tracking ticket
for this.
Tested with VS2015/2017/2019 with both msbuild and ninja generators
Use CMake's target_link_libraries instead of manually maintaining
library dependencies in a single list.
In practice adding new libraries often ended up being guess-work,
now each library lists the libraries it uses.
This was used for the game player executable so libraries
could optionally link to stubs.
If we need this functionality it can be done using target-properties
as described in T46725.
No functional change, this adds LIB definition and args to cmake files.
Without this it's difficult to migrate away from 'BLENDER_SORTED_LIBS'
since there are many platforms/configurations that could break when
changing linking order.
Manually add and enable WITHOUT_SORTED_LIBS to try building
without sorted libs (currently fails since all variables are empty).
This check will eventually be removed.
See T46725.
Draco is added as a library under extern/ and builds a shared library that is
installed into the Python site-packages. This is then loaded by the glTF add-on

This bring macOS on par with Windows and Linux. It uses the OpenMP library
added to our precompiled libraries.
Custom flags are set because FindOpenMP from CMake below 3.12 does not support
AppleClang, and more recent versions do not work with our custom directory
location either.
