Replace the C-class pattern function pointers with actual class methods.
Other than the obvious benefit of not requiring the "this" pointer to be
explicitly passed into every function call, this will make it much simpler
to remove the entire C-API class and replace it with its "impl" next.
For that next step we need to expose code to the implementation
of the topology refiner, so instead of defining stubs locally in the
opensubdiv intern class, we spread some WITH_OPENSUBDIV checks
in the blenkernel. As far as I know this is the only way to remove the
intermediate C-API and call opensubdiv functions directly from there.
All the relevant code is C++ now, so we don't need to complicate things
with the trip through C anymore. We will still need some wrappers, since
opensubdiv is an optional dependency though. The goal is to make it
simpler to remove the unnecessary/costly abstraction levels between
Blender mesh data and the opensubdiv code.
The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
For example
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver()
{
}
```
becomes
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver() {}
```
Saves quite some vertical space, which is especially handy for
constructors.

This makes changes to the opensubdiv module to support additional vertex data
besides the vertex position, that is smootly interpolated the same way. This is
different than varying data which is interpolated linearly.
Fixes T96596: wrong generated texture coordinates with GPU subdivision. In that
bug lazy subdivision would not interpolate orcos.
Later on, this implementation can also be used to remove the modifier stack
mechanism where modifiers are evaluated a second time for orcos, which is messy
and inefficient. But that's a more risky change, this is just the part to fix
the bug in 3.2.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D14973
All parts of drawing (shaders, GL mesh descriptor, material partitioner
and so on) needs to be redone for the draw manager and new OpenSubdiv
library.
Removing untested code which is doomed to be replaced to make localized
refactoring easier.
C-API is way smaller than the rest of the code which uses it.
So better to conditionally compile stub implementation than
to keep adding ifdef everywhere.
