Motivation is to disambiguate on the naming level what the matrix
actually means. It is very easy to understand the meaning backwards,
especially since in Python the name goes the opposite way (it is
called `world_matrix` in the Python API).
It is important to disambiguate the naming without making developers
to look into the comment in the header file (which is also not super
clear either). Additionally, more clear naming facilitates the unit
verification (or, in this case, space validation) when reading an
expression.
This patch calls the matrix `object_to_world` which makes it clear
from the local code what is it exactly going on. This is only done
on DNA level, and a lot of local variables still follow the old
naming.
A DNA rename is setup in a way that there is no change on the file
level, so there should be no regressions at all.
The possibility is to add `_matrix` or `_mat` suffix to the name
to make it explicit that it is a matrix. Although, not sure if it
really helps the readability, or is it something redundant.

When a change happens which invalidates view layers the syncing will be postponed until the first usage.
This will improve importing or adding many objects in a single operation/script.
`BKE_view_layer_need_resync_tag` is used to tag the view layer to be out of sync. Before accessing
`BKE_view_layer_active_base_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_object_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_collection`
or `BKE_view_layer_object_bases` the caller should call `BKE_view_layer_synced_ensure`.
Having two functions ensures that partial syncing could be added as smaller patches in the future. Tagging a
view layer out of sync could be replaced with a partial sync. Eventually the number of full resyncs could be
reduced. After all tagging has been replaced with partial syncs the ensure_sync could be phased out.
This patch has been added to discuss the details and consequences of the current approach. For clarity
the call to BKE_view_layer_ensure_sync is placed close to the getters.
In the future this could be placed in more strategical places to reduce the number of calls or improve
performance. Finding those strategical places isn't that clear. When multiple operations are grouped
in a single script you might want to always check for resync.
Some areas found that can be improved. This list isn't complete.
These areas aren't addressed by this patch as these changes would be hard to detect to the reviewer.
The idea is to add changes to these areas as a separate patch. It might be that the initial commit would reduce
performance compared to master, but will be fixed by the additional patches.
**Object duplication**
During object duplication the syncing is temporarily disabled. With this patch this isn't useful as when disabled
the view_layer is accessed to locate bases. This can be improved by first locating the source bases, then duplicate
and sync and locate the new bases. Will be solved in a separate patch for clarity reasons ({D15886}).
**Object add**
`BKE_object_add` not only adds a new object, but also selects and activates the new base. This requires the
view_layer to be resynced. Some callers reverse the selection and activation (See `get_new_constraint_target`).
We should make the selection and activation optional. This would make it possible to add multiple objects
without having to resync per object.
**Postpone Activate Base**
Setting the basact is done in many locations. They follow a rule as after an action find the base and set
the basact. Finding the base could require a resync. The idea is to store in the view_layer the object which
base will be set in the basact during the next sync, reducing the times resyncing needs to happen.

- ACTIVE flag is no longer in use.
- DESELECT was used in some places as an alias for false,
even though this could arguably help readability, in practice this
was often passed with a selection flag leading to confusing calls
such as `select_beztriple(bezt, DESELECT, SELECT, HIDDEN)`.
Replace SELECT/DESELECT with true/false in these cases.
- Remove ED_types.h. Add a 'SELECT' definition to DNA_anim_types.h,
for fcurve_test, we could use a shared DNA header, or remove use of
the define entirely in favor of typed enums.
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.

In two cases the percentage property was actually used incorrectly, as
pointed out in T82070. The range was [0, 1], but the properties were still
displayed as percentages.
There is a preference to control whether to display factors or
percentages, so it usually doesn't make sense to manually define
properties as percentages.

Previously, it was kind of a mess. In different places it was using `char`, `short` and `int`.
The changed properties are flags that are operated upon using bit operations. Therefore, the integer type should be unsigned. Since we only use 2 bits of these flags, `uint8_t` is large enough.
Especially note the change I had to make in `RNA_define.h` to make this work.

When editing a complex curve is very annoying to have all handles at a time. Also, this is a requirement for the current GSoC Edit Grease Pencil using curves.
I have seen that this improvement can be used in any other area of blender, so I have decided to publish the option in the overlay panel..

Particularly noticeable when vertex painting with a subsurf modifier.
In some cases every sculpt or paint stroke step would evaluate the dependency
graph. This should only happen for redraws. Now more selectively choose if the
dependency graph should be evaluated to initialize the view context. Doing it
in the view context evaluation is somewhat hidden, now it's more explicit.

This removes `VIEW3D_OT_select_or_deselect_all`, adding a
deselect_all option to the `VIEW3D_OT_select` operator.
- Add utility functions to simplify de-selecting all.
- Return true from selection functions when they change the selection
to avoid redundant updates.
- Use arrays of bases when passing objects between selection utility
functions since some users require bases.
- Fix logical error in box selection that updated all objects after
the first hit.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks

This is often invalid, outdated or misleading

It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.
Fixes T58632: Particle don't update rotation settings
Bring back per-viewport localview. This is based on Blender 2.79.
We have a limit of 16 different local view viewports.
We are using both the numpad /, as well as the regular /.
Missing features:
* Hack to make sure lights are always visible.
* Make rendered mode with external engines to support this as well
(probably just need to support this in the RNA iterators).
* Support over 16 viewports by taking existing viewports out of local view.
The code can use a cleanup pass in the future to unify the test to see
if an object is visible (or we can use TESTBASE in more places).
Consider rotation and scale when calculating direction in world space.

Implemented the following methods:
* SIMCURHAND_TYPE
* SIMCURHAND_RADIUS
* SIMCURHAND_WEIGHT
* SIMCURHAND_DIRECTION
Limits:
* DIRECTION does not support surfaces, because `BKE_nurb_bpoint_calc_normal`
does not work with Nurbs of type `CU_CARDINAL`. This also didn't work prior
to this patch, so we wait until surfaces are properly supported in EditMode.
* Also DIRECTION should take scaling into consideration. We need our own
versions of BKE_nurb_bpoint_calc_normal/bezt.
* Threshold default is too large. Not sure if it's better to change the default
or scale the threshold in code.

Changes from committer (Dalai Felinto):
* Moved nurb_bpoint_direction_worldspace_get/bezt to functions.
* Comments hinting at the mode (direction) that require scaling to be
taken into account - to be addressed by patch creator in a future
patch.
