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.

Currently this isn't used in the key-map, it will eventually
allow the 3D viewports tweak tool to match the behavior of other
editors that support tweaking a selection without first de-selecting
all other elements.
Meta-element selection now follows conventions for other picking
functions (e.g. EDBM_select_pick).
- Split meta-element find-nearest into a separate function.
- Cycle the meta-element starting from the active & selected
instead of comparing & setting a static variable.
- Order elements using depth (from front-to-back)
when cycling multiple elements.
- Add SelectPick_Params struct to make picking logic more
straightforward and easier to extend.
- Use `eSelectOp` instead of booleans (extend, deselect, toggle)
which were used to represent 4 states (which wasn't obvious).
- Handle deselect_all when pocking instead of view3d_select_exec,
de-duplicate de-selection which was already needed in when replacing
the selection in picking functions.
- Handle outliner update & notifiers in the picking functions
instead of view3d_select_exec.
- Fix particle select deselect_all option which did nothing.
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so

GPU_select originally used GL_SELECT which defined the format for
storing the selection result.
Now this is no longer the case, define our own struct - making the code
easier to follow:
- Avoid having to deal with arrays in both `uint*` and `uint(*)[4]`
multiplying offsets by 4 in some cases & not others.
- No magic numbers for the offsets of depth & selection-ID.
- No need to allocate unused members to match GL_SELECT
(halving the buffer size).
- Tag the object data instead of the object when decoding
(this avoids duplicating mesh object-data on each undo-step).
- Calculate face normals as part of multi-threaded tessellation.
This gives ~11% speedup with 1.5x million polygons.
Clear the weird term "Metaelement".
These are the metaballs (elements) inside one metaball objects.
- "Meta Ball" to "Metaball"
- "Metaelement", "Meta element" to "Metaball element"

Move `eUndoStepDir` to `BKE_undo_system.h` and use its values
everywhere.
Note that this also introduce the `STEP_INVALID` value in that enum.
Finally, kept the matching struct members in some lower-level readfile
code as an `int` to avoid having to include `BKE_undo_system.h` in a lot
of unrelated files.
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.

Rename it to mark it is only for `encode` callbacks, fix `encode`
callback of text undo to early fail in case it gets a NULL context, add
an assert to `BKE_undosys_step_push_with_type` that context is not NULL
when undotype requires a valid one.
Note that in practice this should not change anything, currently it
seems that we always get a valid context in
`BKE_undosys_step_push_with_type`?
Remove DNA headers, using forward declarations where possible.
Also removed duplicate header, header including it's self
and unnecessary inclusion of libc system headers from BKE header.
This replaces header include guards with `#pragma once`.
A couple of include guards are not removed yet (e.g. `__RNA_TYPES_H__`),
because they are used in other places.

Change how the radius, changing the size of meta plane, sphere & cube.
Previously the size of these primitives would be kept the same,
with only the radius outside the primitive being scaled.
This led to small scale adding a lot of polygons instead
of scaling the primitive down as users would expect.
Also change behavior not to change the resolution when adding
to an existing meta-ball.
Note this only changes cases where the variable was declared inside
the for loop. To handle it outside as well is a different challenge.

This introduces object mode tagging for data which hasn't yet been
written back to the ID data.
Now when selecting other sculpt objects, the original objects data is
flushed back to the ID before writing a memfile undo step.
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.

When using multiple viewlayers and switching between them the selection
gets buggy. The reason for this is that the select_id is updated based
on the index in the viewlayer. This makes the select_id not unique as
objects might be shared or not shared at all.
This fix will update the select_id on all objects in main. This will be triggered in all the selection operators.

No functional change, this adds LIB definition and args to cmake files.
Without this it's difficult to migrate away from 'BLENDER_SORTED_LIBS'
since there are many platforms/configurations that could break when
changing linking order.
Manually add and enable WITHOUT_SORTED_LIBS to try building
without sorted libs (currently fails since all variables are empty).
This check will eventually be removed.
See T46725.
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.

Reveal Bones:

Operators not renamed:
* Hide Curves (GRAPH_OT_hide)
* Hide (OUTLINER_OT_hide)
Note we can do a step further and mass rename them to match their UI
