While this compiler is not officially supported yet, getting it to work is
a nice thing because more and more AMD cards will fall under MESA driver.
It's also nice to use explicit comparison with NULL, which makes it more
clear whether variable is a boolean or pointer. Even Rust enforces this!
Patch by Ian Bruce with own modifications.
The mesh convert operator can 'freeze' a mesh
(WYSIWYG, modifiers, shape keys etc).
However its not very obvious that the way to perform this
operation is to convert a mesh to a mesh.
Expose this as 'Visual Geometry to Mesh' in the 'Apply' menu,
since this is where users might expect to see it.
Use expanded names for bmesh primitive operations
(urmv jvke semv jfke).
Use 'bmesh_kernel_' prefix,
these functions aren't intended for wide use so favor readability.
Remove BM_face_vert_separate,
it wasn't used and only skipped step of finding correct loop of face.
It might be useful to keep the search string stored in some cases, but
in most it's not useful but confusing. Especially if the string is taken
from a menu showing a different enum.
When the loop region passed in had no loops to edge-split from,
it was assumed nothing needed to be done.
This ignored the case where loops share a vertex
without any shared edges.
Now BM_face_loop_separate_multi behaves like BM_face_loop_separate.
Fixed error where faces remained connected by verts in BM_mesh_separate_faces.
This commit adds new features to the breakdowner, giving animators more
control over what gets interpolated by the breakdowner. Specifically:
"Just as G R S let you move rotate scale, and then X Y Z let you do that
in one desired axis, when using the Breakdower it would be great to be
able to add GRS and XYZ to constrain what transform / axis is being
breakdowned."
As requested here:

Notes:
* In addition to G/R/S, there's also B (Bendy Bone settings and C (custom properties)
* Pressing G/R/S/B/C or X/Y/Z again will turn these constraints off again
- Connectivity length was overwritten by distance to closest selected.
- Vertices used the 'island' center of the closest vertex,
even if it wasn't connected.
Now optionally keep track of the original index of used as the closest
connected distance.
To support this needed to add optional support for islands of 1 vertex.
The changes introduced in rB3e628eefa9f55fac7b0faaec4fd4392c2de6b20e
made the non-subframe frame change behaviour less intuitive, by always
truncating downwards, instead of rounding to the nearest frame instead.
This made the UI a lot less forgiving of pointing precision errors
(for example, as a result of hand shake, or using a tablet on a highres scren)
This commit restores the old behaviour in this case only (subframe inspection
isn't affected by these changes)
Selection loop would draw the selection ignoring xray.
Now draw in a separate pass after clearing the depth buffer,
as with regular drawing.
Also disable depth sorting,
caller can sort the hit-list by depth if needed.
Single program generally compiles kernels faster (2-3 times), loads faster,
takes less drive space (2-3 times), and reduces the number of cached kernels.
Reduces memory allocation for split kernel.
This allows for faster rendering due to bigger global size,
specially when GPU memory is limited.

(*) without glossy connected to volume
Decoupled ray marching is not supported yet.
Transparent shadows are always enabled for volume rendering.
Changes in kernel/bvh and kernel/geom are from Sergey.
This simiplifies code significantly, and prepares it for
record-all transparent shadow function in split kernel.
Intended to replace legacy GL_SELECT, without the limitations of
sample queries which can't access depth information.
This commit adds VIEW3D_SELECT_PICK_NEAREST and VIEW3D_SELECT_PICK_ALL
which access the depth buffers to detect whats under the pointer,
so initial selection is always the closest item.
The performance of this method depends a lot on the OpenGL
implementations glReadPixels.
Since reading depth can be slow, buffers are cached for object picking
so selecting re-uses depth data, performing 1 draw instead of 3
(for 24, 18, 10 px regions, picking with many items under the pointer).
Occlusion queries draw twice when picking nearest,
so worst case 6x draw calls per selection.
Even with these improvements occlusion queries is faster on AMD hardware.
Depth selection is disabled by default, toggle option under select method.
May enable by default if this works well on different hardware.

The issue was caused by sometimes negative color returned by the filter node.
Seems to be caused by precision issues. Don't see any reason why we would want
negative colors in output. Those only causing issues later on.
