Rotating light brushtips WIP

Hi, @RamonM, @emilm, @Mythmaker and others!

Could you please test the packages from this MR, when they are ready?

New Link: Pipeline · Graphics / Krita · GitLab

I have fixed two performance issues when loading the V7 bundle and, specifically, “Photo B2” brush preset. Does it look better in this build?

How to test:

  1. Go to %appdata%\Krita folder (or ~/.local/share/krita)
  2. Remove (or move to a safe space the two files):
    • memileo_360light_07.bundle
    • resourcecache.sqlite
  3. Start Krita (it will rescan the resources)
  4. Try to import the bundle again → it should happen much quicker
  5. Open the brush selector → it should open much faster
  6. try to activate “Photo B2” preset → it should activate faster (but not extremely fast)

Please take it into account that removing “resourcecache.sqlite” is mandatory, since the buggy and heavy data has been written to the database, making brush selection/activation much slower.
