This is to help ensure buildbot builds are correct, while still gracefully
disabling features in user/developer builds.
* Add WITH_STRICT_BUILD_OPTIONS to give an error when features can't be
enabled due to missing libraries or other reasons. Add new macro
set_and_warn_library_found used everywhere features were being
automatically disabled.
* Remove code from Windows and macOS for various libraries that would
automatically disable features. set_and_warn_library_found could be
used here also, but we are generally assuming the precompiled libraries
are complete and only test for availability when libraries are just
added.

It has not actually been enabled there for a long time in official releases,
so this just fixes the warning. Making it work again would be good, but for
now JACK is only supported on Linux.
"dg2" target is deprecated from the GPU compiler/ocloc.
We switch to targeting acm-g10 instead, for which generated binaries are
compatible with other Arc GPUs.
Enable the following CMake options:
- WITH_GHOST_WAYLAND
Enable Wayland which is now included as part the bundled dependencies.
When the pre-compiled libraries aren't used, only X11 will be enabled.
- WITH_GHOST_WAYLAND_DYNLOAD
So systems without libwayland can fall back to X11.
- WITH_GHOST_WAYLAND_LIBDECOR
To draw window frames on WAYLAND compositors such as gnome-shell which
expect client-side decorations (without this the Blender window is
borderless).
Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a reliable way to know if the
compositors handles server-side decorations, so libdecor is required
for Wayland to be used even with KDE and tiling compositors where it's
not needed. Although this is an area that could use some further
investigation - possibly bundling libdecor or handling client-side
decorations in Blender.

This adds path guiding features into Cycles by integrating Intel's Open Path
Guiding Library. It can be enabled in the Sampling > Path Guiding panel in the
render properties.
This feature helps reduce noise in scenes where finding a path to light is
difficult for regular path tracing.
The current implementation supports guiding directional sampling decisions on
surfaces, when the material contains a least one diffuse component, and in
volumes with isotropic and anisotropic Henyey-Greenstein phase functions.
On surfaces, the guided sampling decision is proportional to the product of
the incident radiance and the normal-oriented cosine lobe and in volumes it
is proportional to the product of the incident radiance and the phase function.
The incident radiance field of a scene is learned and updated during rendering
after each per-frame rendering iteration/progression.
At the moment, path guiding is only supported by the CPU backend. Support for
GPU backends will be added in future versions of OpenPGL.

Match minimum supported versions from the WIKI [0] by raising them to:
- GCC 9.3.1
- CLANG 8.0
- MVCS 2019 (16.9.16 / 1928)
Details:
- Add CMake checks that ensure supported compiler versions early on.
- Previously GCC per-processor version checks served to exclude
`__clang__`, in some cases this has been replaced by explicitly
excluding `__clang__`. This was needed as CLANG treated some of these
flags differently to GCC, causing the build to fail.
- Remove USE_APPLE_OMP_FIX GCC-4.2 OpenMP workaround.
- Remove linking error workaround for old MSVC versions.

Build against Python from precompiled libraries by default, instead of

Use the same CMake find module as Linux. This simplifies code, and makes it

PLATFORM_BUNDLED_LIBRARIES gathers shared libraries that will be installed
to the lib/ folder. The Blender executable gets a relative rpath pointing to
this folder as part of the install step.
The build rpath is different and uses absolute paths, so that it works for
executables like tests that are in different locations, and to support the
case where the build and install folders are different.
The system is already used for the OpenMP library on macOS. But on Linux it
will only kick in once we start using shared libraries for dependencies.
This also removes Mesa libraries from the old location, as these would cause
Blender to start with software OpenGL.

With this patch true headless OpenGL rendering is now possible on Linux.
It changes the logic of the WITH_HEADLESS build flag.
The headless backend is now always available with regular builds and
Blender will try to fall back to it if it fails to initialize other
backends while in background mode.
The headless backend only works on Linux as EGL is not used on Mac or Windows.
libepoxy does support windows and mac, so this can perhaps be remedied in the future.

This cleans up the OpenGL build flags and linking.
It additionally also removes some dead code.
One of these dead code paths is WITH_X11_ALPHA which actually never was
active even with the build flag on. The call to use this was never
called because the default initializer for GHOST was set to have it off
per default. Nothing called this function with a boolean value to enable it.
These cleanups are needed to support true headless OpenGL rendering.
Without these cleanups libepoxy will fail to load the correct OpenGL
Libraries as we have already linked them to the blender binary.

With libepoxy we can choose between EGL and GLX at runtime, as well as
dynamically open EGL and GLX libraries without linking to them.
This will make it possible to build with Wayland, EGL, GLVND support while
still running on systems that only have X11, GLX and libGL. It also paves
the way for headless rendering through EGL.
libepoxy is a new library dependency, and is included in the precompiled

Adds a better name that describes when it is used.
The GPU_SHADER_BUILDER is a buildtime tool for developers
to pre-validate GLSL (and in the overseen future pre-compile to
SpirV). We don't see that this needs to become a required
step in the future so WITH_GPU_BUILDTIME_SHADER_BUILDER

Linking GPU shader builder requires stubs for many functions of the USD library.
We don't want to rely on other modules to update the stubs for a tool that
is only used by GPU developers.
This patch raises an error when both WITH_GPU_SHADER_BUILDER and WITH_USD are
enabled. This reduces the maintenance of updating the stubs when USD API changes.

- Intel® oneAPI Level Zero which is used for low level device queries:
https://github.com/oneapi-src/level-zero
- To optionally generate prebuilt graphics binaries: Intel® Graphics
Compiler All are included in Linux precompiled libraries on svn:
https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/lib The same goes for
Windows precompiled binaries but for the graphics compiler, available

Add WITH_GHOST_WAYLAND_DBUS option, so Blender can be built without
DBUS support. Currently it's only used to access the cursor theme.
Without this the "default" cursors are used instead.
Disabling this since it adds an additional dependency for a minor gain
in functionality, with the benefit of removing a library requirement.
There is also a problem where Blender hangs on startup for ~5 seconds
when DBUS isn't running. Eventually it would be good to be able to avoid
this problem without a build option.
This implements client-side window decorations for moving and resizing
windows and HiDPI support.
This functionality depends on the external project 'libdecor' that is

Even though the `no_unique_address` attribute has only been standardized
in C++20, compilers seem to support it with C++17 already. This attribute
allows reducing the memory footprint of structs which have empty types as
data members (usually that is an allocator or inline buffer in Blender).
Previously, one had to use the empty base optimization to achieve the same
effect, which requires a lot of boilerplate code.
The types that benefit from this the most are `Vector` and `Array`, which
usually become 8 bytes smaller. All types which use these core data structures
get smaller as well of course.

`PXR_ENABLE_OSL_SUPPORT=OFF`: OpenShadingLanguage is an optional
dependency of the Imaging module. However, since that module was
included for its support for converting primitive shapes (sphere, cube,

simpler to build Blender; currently only Cycles uses OSL.
`PXR_ENABLE_GL_SUPPORT=OFF`: GL support on Linux also links to X11
libraries. Enabling it would break headless or Wayland-only builds.
OpenGL support would be useful if someone wants to work on a Hydra
viewport in Blender; when that's actually being worked on, we could
patch in a new PXR_ENABLE_X11_SUPPORT option (to separate OpenGL from
X11) and contribute it upstream.
