BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.

Fixes the "emtpy scrolling" glitch by clamping the scroller offset to
the boundary of the view when it's smaller than the previous.
Fixes T45197. Patch by @januz.

- Metadata handling is now separate from `ImBuf *`, allowing it to be
used with a generic `IDProperty *`.
- Merged `IMB_metadata_add_field()` and `IMB_metadata_change_field()`
into a more robust `IMB_metadata_set_field()`. This new function
doesn't return any status (it now always succeeds, and the previously
existing return value was never checked anyway).
- Removed `IMB_metadata_del_field()` as it was never actually used
anywhere.
- Use `IMB_metadata_ensure()` instead of having
`IMB_metadata_set_field()` create the containing `IDProperty` for
you.
- Deduplicated function declarations, moved `intern/IMB_metadata.h` out
of `intern/`. Note that this does mean that we have some extra
`#include "IMB_metadata.h"` lines now, as the metadata functions are
no longer declared in `IMB_imbuf.h`.
- Deduplicated function declarations, all metadata-related declarations
are now in imbuf/IMB_metadata.h.

For experimental options, outside the scope of typical preferences.
While templates are developed we might want to make changes
to behavior which aren't fully compatible with typical work-flows.
Instead of mixing these options in with current preferences
expose separately (we could even force disable them when templates
aren't int use)
Cursor is now set to standard arrow-cursor when opening menu, and reset to previous one when closing it. Previously it just stayed as it was before, e.g. the edit mode cross-cursor stayed active even if a menu was opened.
Fixes T48192.
Steps to reproduce fixed glitches were:
* Change any editor to be file browser from menu, Ctrl+O *from the file browser area*, Esc -> area reset to what it was before changing to file browser initially
* Ctrl+O from any area, F12, Esc -> returns to initial editor in full-screen (expected is file browser in full-screen)
Fixes T46229
Core of the fix is removing old area from spacedata list when going back to previous area (see ED_area_prevspace -> BKE_spacedata_remove). Also, when creating a new temp area we now don't exit old area anymore (needed so SpaceFile->op is kept, but it also makes sense in general)
Aaand finally removes some ugly hacks.
Tested quite a bit, so I think it's safe to apply (besides of remark below), just would like to get things double checked and confirmed. After all, this full-screen stuff finally starts to feel like it's working :P
Note, there's still a memory leak when quitting Blender with temp area open. Haven't found out how to solve yet, but it's not that important for review anyway.

- Match layout from stamp buffer (note last so it can wrap)
- Correct vertical spacing (didn't take decender into account)
- Use U.pixelsize when setting font-size.
Tried a couple of things to trigger an update/redraw for the exact right
moment (sending azone update event, timer, delayed redraw, etc) but this
seems to work rock solid without being *that* ugly.
Basically, blender adds a few metadata fields to images when
we render an image. Those metadata can now be viewed in the
image editor.
Also, made sure metadata are available when we write imbufs
to disc with "Save As". There may be more cases here that need
fixing, but this means that loading an image with metadata
will now properly preserve them in blender.

Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

ED_area_data_swap would put the screen in an invalid state and crash.
(SpaceLink.spacetype didn't match ScrArea.type)
However behavior is still odd in the instance of the report.
Bookmarks are now editable (i.e. you can rename them, and reorder them).
They are also listed in regular UILists, so you can filter/sort them as usual too.
Also, FileBrowser 'T' side area is changed to something similar to 3DView one,
in this case because we need op panel to remain at the bottom, and later because
we'll more than likely need tabs here!
Thanks to Campbell and Sergey for reviews.

Adds support for stacked fullscreens. This basically means, if a user opens a
temporary fullscreen mode, such as the File Browser or the Image Editor render
view, from a different fullscreen, the "Back to Previous" function or the other
ways to escape those temporary fullscreens don't return to the split screen
layout but to the previous fullscreen he has been in.
I already committed something similar (f7e844570f) but that was only
supposed as a fix, it didn't work for the "Back to Previous" operator and the
implementation wasn't really reusable. This one looks a bit nicer + makes some
older hacks unnecessary :)
This merge-commit brings in a number of new features and workflow/UI improvements for
working with Grease Pencil. While these were originally targetted at improving
the workflow for creating 3D storyboards in Blender using the Grease Pencil,
many of these changes should also prove useful in other workflows too.
The main highlights here are:
1) It is now possible to edit Grease Pencil strokes
- Use D Tab, or toggle the "Enable Editing" toggles in the Toolbar/Properties regions
to enter "Stroke Edit Mode". In this mode, many common editing tools will
operate on Grease Pencil stroke points instead.
- Tools implemented include Select, Select All/Border/Circle/Linked/More/Less,
Grab, Rotate, Scale, Bend, Shear, To Sphere, Mirror, Duplicate, Delete.
- Proportional Editing works when using the transform tools
2) Grease Pencil stroke settings can now be animated
NOTE: Currently drivers don't work, but if time allows, this may still be
added before the release.
3) Strokes can be drawn with "filled" interiors, using a separate set of
colour/opacity settings to the ones used for the lines themselves.
This makes use of OpenGL filled polys, which has the limitation of only
being able to fill convex shapes. Some artifacts may be visible on concave
shapes (e.g. pacman's mouth will be overdrawn)
4) "Volumetric Strokes" - An alternative drawing technique for stroke drawing
has been added which draws strokes as a series of screen-aligned discs.
While this was originally a partial experimental technique at getting better
quality 3D lines, the effects possible using this technique were interesting
enough to warrant making this a dedicated feature. Best results when partial
opacity and large stroke widths are used.
5) Improved Onion Skinning Support
- Different colours can be selected for the before/after ghosts. To do so,
enable the "colour wheel" toggle beside the Onion Skinning toggle, and set
the colours accordingly.
- Different numbers of ghosts can be shown before/after the current frame
6) Grease Pencil datablocks are now attached to the scene by default instead of
the active object.
- For a long time, the object-attachment has proved to be quite problematic
for users to keep track of. Now that this is done at scene level, it is
easier for most users to use.
- An exception for old files (and for any addons which may benefit from object
attachment instead), is that if the active object has a Grease Pencil datablock,
that will be used instead.
- It is not currently possible to choose object-attachment from the UI, but
it is simple to do this from the console instead, by doing:
context.active_object.grease_pencil = bpy.data.grease_pencil["blah"]
7) Various UI Cleanups
- The layers UI has been cleaned up to use a list instead of the nested-panels
design. Apart from saving space, this is also much nicer to look at now.
- The UI code is now all defined in Python. To support this, it has been necessary
to add some new context properties to make it easier to access these settings.
e.g. "gpencil_data" for the datablock
"active_gpencil_layer" and "active_gpencil_frame" for active data,
"editable_gpencil_strokes" for the strokes that can be edited
- The "stroke placement/alignment" settings (previously "Drawing Settings" at the
bottom of the Grease Pencil panel in the Properties Region) is now located in
the toolbar. These were more toolsettings than properties for how GPencil got drawn.
- "Use Sketching Sessions" has been renamed "Continuous Drawing", as per a
suggestion for an earlier discussion on developer.blender.org
- By default, the painting operator will wait for a mouse button to be pressed
before it starts creating the stroke. This is to make it easier to include
this operator in various toolbars/menus/etc. To get it immediately starting
(as when you hold down DKEy to draw), set "wait_for_input" to False.
- GPencil Layers can be rearranged in the "Grease Pencil" mode of the Action Editor
- Toolbar panels have been added to all the other editors which support these.
8) Pie menus for quick-access to tools
A set of experimental pie menus has been included for quick access to many
tools and settings. It is not necessary to use these to get things done,
but they have been designed to help make certain common tasks easier.
- Ctrl-D = The main pie menu. Reveals tools in a context sensitive and
spatially stable manner.
- D Q = "Quick Settings" pie. This allows quick access to the active
layer's settings. Notably, colours, thickness, and turning
onion skinning on/off.
