In some cases the Geometry Nodes Volume Cube generates
a Volume grid that doesn't contain any leaf nodes. This can happen
when only tiles are needed to represent the volume.
This PR changes the `empty_grid` check function to also check if
there are any active tiles in the grid before returning `true`.

In some cases comments at the end of control statements were wrapped
onto new lines which made it read as if they applied to the next line
instead of the (now) previous line.
Relocate comments to the previous line or in some cases the end of the
line (before the brace) to avoid confusion.
Note that in quite a few cases these blocks didn't read well
even before MultiLine was used as comments after the brace caused
wrapping across multiple lines in a way that didn't follow
formatting used everywhere else.

There were two issues here preventing the proper display of the IES
files in question.
The primary one was that these lights are actually vertical. Their
profiles actually point upwards from 90deg to 180deg but our parser was
trying hard to adjust it to start at 0deg incorrectly.
Lastly, the files in question ended with the parser in the `eof`
state - they are "missing" the final carriage return that other IES
files tend to have but other viewers don't seem to mind. Change the
`eof` check instead for a better one that will indicate if any parsing
errors occurred along the way.

Since the version v1.5.0 of sse2neon the functionality for denormals
flushing is implemented in the library. This commit makes it so the
_MM_SET_FLUSH_ZERO_MODE and _MM_SET_DENORMALS_ZERO_MODE are used from
the ss2neon if available.
This solves macro re-definition when a newer sse2neon is used.
The change is implemented in a way that both current and new sse2neon
are supported.
The intersection distance offset in Cycles could have returned
a denormal floating point value for the input values of 0 (and
for the denormal input value).
This could lead to a situation when ray is unable to be advanced
when it hits an edge between two triangles: the intersection will
keep bouncing between two adjacent triangles. This is because the
ray->tmin is compared inclusively, and 0 >= <denormal zero>.
The solution is to return the smallest possible normalized floating
point value from the intersection_t_offset if the input is zero
or a denormal value (which is covered by the same t == 0 check).
This fix is hard to measure on the user level. The old code did
not cause any infinite traversal loop because of the way how the
integration is organized (some kernels offset ray.P, others check
for the number of bounces). It is possible that this fixes some
corner cases of noise: i.e. if some shadow rays falsefully were
considered occluded due to reached maximum number of bounces.
The actual problematic case was discovered during working on a
prototype which had an in-lined intersection loop with the ray
tmin offset.

HIP RT enables AMD hardware ray tracing on RDNA2 and above, and falls back to a
to shader implementation for older graphics cards. It offers an average 25%
sample rendering rate improvement in Cycles benchmarks, on a W6800 card.
The ray tracing feature functions are accessed through HIP RT SDK, available on
GPUOpen. HIP RT traversal functionality is pre-compiled in bitcode format and
shipped with the SDK.
This is not yet enabled as there are issues to be resolved, but landing the
code now makes testing and further changes easier.
Known limitations:
* Not working yet with current public AMD drivers.
* Visual artifact in motion blur.
* One of the buffers allocated for traversal has a static size. Allocating it
dynamically would reduce memory usage.
* This is for Windows only currently, no Linux support.

When running oneAPI with AoT binaries, on hardware that's not compatible with
these, recompilation could have been missing from the kernels loading phase and
happen during execution instead.
These changes fixes it, any kernel compilation will now happen during the
kernels loading phase.
Scene.cpp and Geometry.cpp are large file it can be broken up into smaller easier to handle files. This change has been broken out from #105403 to make understanding the changes easier.
geometry.cpp is broken up into:
1. geometry.cpp
2. geometry_attributes.cpp
3. geometry_bvh.cpp
4. geometry_mesh.cpp
scene.h & scene.cpp is broken into:
1. scene.h
2. scene.cpp
3. devicescene.h

Using the new HIP SDK 5.5 that includes a fix for the compiler bug.
This also enables the light tree.
For Linux the binaries are still disabled. ROCm 5.5 is planned to
include the same fix but not released yet. When that happens we
should be able to enable Linux as well.

This reverts commit df096eab77.
There is a corner case for when WITH_CYCLES_ONEAPI_BINARIES is set to on
and later turned off during config, in case there is no ocloc.
Due to floating point differences between importance sampling and
texture evaluation, disagreeing on whether or not a ray lies within
the sun disc.
* Use the same input values for geographical_to_direction() in
sky_radiance_nishita() and kernel_data.background.sun.
* The mathematical operations in pdf_uniform_cone() were adjusted to
match sky_radiance_nishita().

Implements #95966, as the final step of #95965.
This commit changes the storage of mesh edge vertex indices from the
`MEdge` type to the generic `int2` attribute type. This follows the
general design for geometry and the attribute system, where the data
storage type and the usage semantics are separated.
The main benefit of the change is reduced memory usage-- the
requirements of storing mesh edges is reduced by 1/3. For example,
this saves 8MB on a 1 million vertex grid. This also gives performance
benefits to any memory-bound mesh processing algorithm that uses edges.
Another benefit is that all of the edge's vertex indices are
contiguous. In a few cases, it's helpful to process all of them as
`Span<int>` rather than `Span<int2>`. Similarly, the type is more
likely to match a generic format used by a library, or code that
shouldn't know about specific Blender `Mesh` types.
Various Notes:
- The `.edge_verts` name is used to reflect a mapping between domains,
similar to `.corner_verts`, etc. The period means that it the data
shouldn't change arbitrarily by the user or procedural operations.
- `edge[0]` is now used instead of `edge.v1`
- Signed integers are used instead of unsigned to reduce the mixing
of signed-ness, which can be error prone.
- All of the previously used core mesh data types (`MVert`, `MEdge`,
`MLoop`, `MPoly` are now deprecated. Only generic types are used).
- The `vec2i` DNA type is used in the few C files where necessary.

This type will be used to store mesh edges in #106638, but it could
be used for anything else too. This commit adds support for:
- The new type in the Python API
- Editing the type in the edit mode "Attribute Set" operator
- Rendering the type in EEVEE and Cycles for all geometry types
- Geometry nodes attribute interpolation and mixing
- Viewing the type in the spreadsheet and using row filters
The attribute uses the `blender::int2` type in most code, and
the `vec2i` DNA type in C code when necessary. The enum names
are based on `INT32_2D` for consistency with `INT8` and `INT32`.

The OSL GPU services implementation of noise intrinsics was missing the
overloads for derivatives and therefore OptiX pipeline creation would fail if
those were referenced.
When WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG is set to ON the following errors are
printed to the console:
E0412 15:51:22.588564 7996345 sync.cpp:737] Unknown pass Guiding Color
E0412 15:51:22.588605 7996345 sync.cpp:737] Unknown pass Guiding Probability
E0412 15:51:22.588613 7996345 sync.cpp:737] Unknown pass Guiding Average Roughness
This change fixes this by treating the guiding passes the same
way as all other passes, solving the errors and making it possible
to visualize guiding passes in the viewport later on.

- "Lens" can be a transparent object used in cameras, or specifically
its property of focal length
- "Empty" can be an adjective meaning void, or an object type. The
latter is already disambiguated using `ID_ID`
- "New" and "Old" are adjectives that can have agreements in some
languages
- "Modified" is an adjective that can have agreement in some languages
- "Clipping" can be a property of a camera, or a behavior of the
mirror modifier
- "Value" in HSV nodes, see #105113
- "Area" in the Face Area geometry node, can mean a measurement or a
window type
- "New" is an adjective that can have agreement
- "Tab" can be a UI element or a whitespace character
- "Volume" can mean a measurement or an object type. The latter is
already disambiguated using `ID_ID`
These changes introduce the new `BLT_I18NCONTEXT_TIME` translation

They also remove `BLT_I18NCONTEXT_VIRTUAL_REALITY`, which I added at
one point but then couldn't find which messages I wanted to fix with
it.
