This was introduced in the new geodesic distances algorithm for proportional
editing. When all faces of an edge are hidden, that edge should be considered
as loose geometry.

Currently the GPU module for python has different ways to handle enums.
- Organizing items in `PyC_StringEnumItems` arrays and parsing them with `PyC_ParseStringEnum`.
- Using dedicated functions for each type of enum (`bpygpu_ParsePrimType`, `pygpu_ParseVertCompType` and `pygpu_ParseVertFetchMode`).
Although apparently more efficient (especially `pygpu_ParseVertCompType`
which transforms strings into integers for simple comparison), these
dedicated functions duplicate functionality, increase the complexity of
the code and consequently make it less readable.

With very large distances there were precision / overflow errors, normalize
the average albedo to avoid that. This was causing test failures on macOS
Arm, but also other architectures had slightly wrong results.

The Exact modifier code had been written to avoid using BMesh but
in the initial release the modifier still converted all Meshes to
BMeshes, and then after running the boolean code on the BMeshes,
converted the result back to a Mesh.
This change skips that. Most of the work here is in getting the
Custom Data layers right. The approach taken is to merge default
layers from all operand meshes into the final result, and then
use the original verts, edges, polys, and loops to copy or interpolate
the appropriate custom data layers from all operands into the result.
When opening a Blender version for which there are no preferences, the splash
shows a button like "Load 2.92 Settings". Using this could cause a memory leak
of the storage for recently opened files.
The "quick setup" dialog is actually a 'menu', and the "splash screen" block
contains the UI_BLOCK_LOOP flag which causes the buttons' text to align
to the left, however, usually regular buttons have centered text.
As a workaround, add the UI_BLOCK_QUICK_SETUP flag which prevents
the text from being left-aligned.

Support Python 3.10a5 or 3.9x with support explicitly enabled.
- Enable Python's postponed annotations for Blender's RNA classes
types registered on startup.
- Using postponed annotations has implications for how they are defined,
since they must evaluate in the modules name-space instead of the
classes name-space. See changes to annotations in `release/scripts`.
- Use `from __future__ import annotations` at the top of the module
to ensure the script will run with Python 3.10.
- Old logic is kept since it could be used if PEP-649 is supported.

This adds an approximation of inverted AO by reversing the max horizon
search (becoming a min horizon). The horizons are correctly clamped in
the reverse direction to the shading and geometric normals.
The arc integration is untouched as it seems to be symetrical.
The limitation of this technique is that since it is still screen-space
AO you don't get other hidden surfaces occlusion. This is more
problematic in the case of inverted AO than for normal AO but it's
better than no support AO.
Support of distance parameter was easy thanks to recent AO refactor.
Fix regression with roughness not masking reflections when not using
Screen Space raytracing.
The trick was to only evaluate one planar per pixel, the one with
the most influence. This should not be too limiting since this is what
we do for SSR.
Also change evaluation order do not apply occlusion on planars probes.
- Fix noise/banding artifact on distant geometry.
- Fix overshadowing on un-occluded surfaces at grazing angle producing "fresnel"
like shadowing. Some of it still appears but this is caused to the low number
of horizons per pixel.
- Improve performance by using a fixed number of samples and fixing the
sampling area size. A better sampling pattern is planned to recover
the lost precision on large AO radius.
- Improved normal reconstruction for the AO pass.
- Improve Bent Normal reconstruction resulting in less faceted look on
smoothed geometry.
- Add Thickness heuristic to avoid overshadowing of thin objects.
Factor is currently hardcoded.
- Add bent normal support to Glossy reflections.
- Change Glossy occlusion to give less light leaks from lightprobes.
It can overshadow on smooth surface but this should be mitigated by
using SSR.
- Use Bent Normal for rough Glossy surfaces.
- Occlusion is now correctly evaluated for each BSDF. However this does make
everything slower. This is mitigated by the fact the search is a lot faster
than before.
Previously, methods like `Span.drop_front` would crash when more
elements would be dropped than are available. While this is most
efficient, it is not very practical in some use cases. Also other languages
silently clamp the index, so one can easily write wrong code accidentally.
Now, `Span.drop_front` and similar methods will only crash when n
is negative. Too large values will be clamped down to their maximum
possible value. While this is slightly less efficient, I did not have a case
where this actually mattered yet. If it does matter in the future, we can
add a separate `*_unchecked` method.
This should not change the behavior of existing code.
Expanded enum items like this usually have centered text, but there are
limitations in the popup code that break this here. Add a workaround for this
limitation.

This patch adds a to_curve method to the Object ID. This method is
analogous to the to_mesh method. The method can operate on curve and
text objects. For text objects, the text is converted into a 3D Curve ID
and that curve is returned. For curve objects, if apply_modifiers is
true, the spline deform modifiers will be applied and a Curve ID with
the result will be returned, otherwise a copy of the curve will be
returned.
The goal of this addition is to allow the developer to access the splines
of text objects and to get the result of modifier applications which was
otherwise not possible.

Previously the same functions were used to both set and get the active
state for outliner tree elements. This has quite a few problems.
- It's hard to tell when data is changed or simply read
- It prevents using `const`
- The code is full of if statements, making it longer and less readable.
This commit replaces the `tree_element_type_active` and
`tree_element_active` functions with `_get` and `_set` variants. One
has const arguments and returns the active state, the other deals only
with setting the state. While this refactor results in slightly more
lines of code, the result is much better in my opinion.
This commit also removes unused variables from arguments of the affected
functions.
