* The cache file datablock is now evaluated as part of the dependency graph,
creating/freeing the Alembic file handle matching the current frame.
Modifiers and constraints depend on this evaluation.
* Cache file handles and readers now only exist on COW datablocks, never the
original ones.
* Object data paths are flushed back to the original for the user interface.
* The cache file keeps a list of all readers associated with its handle, and
automatically frees them when the handle is freed. This kind of sharing of
data across datablocks is weak but we have no better mechanism for it.

In 2.7x UV sculpt was a kind of sub-mode
(a toggle with it's own key-map & drawing code).
Move this to an operator that uses the tool-system,
this simplifies internal logic, especially brush selection
which now matches sculpt and other paint modes.
- Remove toggle used to enable uv sculpt.
- Expose the brush, which was already used but there was no way to
select different brushes.
- Make UV sculpt use paint paint tool slots
(using brushes how all other paint mode currently do).
- Move UV Sculpt keymap to the tools keymap.
- Remove Q to toggle UV sculpt mode,
S/P/G keys to switch tools.
This hides the top-bar by default for everything
besides paint/sculpt workspaces.
- Use the top-bar mainly for active tool settings &
popovers panel options.
(transform / snap settings are an exception for this convention).
- Only show the top-bar (by default)
in paint work-spaces (sculpt / texture-paint / grease-pencil).
- Add an active-tool panel to the sidebar.
- Split 3D view tabs into (Item / Tool / View).
D4721 with minor changes.
Further work is needed for the top-bar and image-editor.
This patch implements new cache system.
Aim is to give user more control over cache, so it can be maximally
utilized. This is done through sequencer timeline side panel
in category proxy & cache.
Cached images are also visualized in timeline, controled by
sequencer timeline view->cache menu
Functional changes:
- NOT use IMB_moviecache API
- refactor names of cached image types
- each scene owns 1 sequencer cache
- merge preprocess cache into per-sequencer cache
- cache links images rendered per frame in order as they are created
- add cache content visualization tool
- add RNA properties to control the cache

Shader nodes are now shared with Eevee, so makes more sense to have it in
the core and not be Cycles specific.
Fix T62415: issues with append/link of old Cycles settings.
On file read we need to update group nodes in case the group they refer to
has changed its inputs and outputs. This had O(n^2) time complexity and was
updating all datablocks even if they did not change.
Forward compatibility with that version is already long gone, and removing
it means we can avoid running some complicated code on every file read/write.
Node versioning code was added before there was a mechanism to do versioning
after lib linking. Now integrate with that system and make it less of a strange
exception. Node versioning is now skipped on undo, like other versioning code.
As far as I can tell, there is no technical reason why the B-Bone
segment thickness scaling can't be separated into two axes. The
only downside is the increase in complexity of the B-Bone settings,
but this is inevitable due to the increase in flexibility.
Updating the file is somewhat complicated though, because F-Curves
and drivers have to be duplicated and updated to the new names.

This adds a new "Automatic" image display method which uses GLSL shaders for
most images. It only does CPU side color management for higher res images
where sending big float buffers to the GPU is likely to be a bottleneck or
cause memory usage problem.
Automatic is the default now, previously it was 2D Texture.
When in Axis alligned orthographic view a grid was always displayed.
With this change the user can enable/disable this grid.
The Grid is always visible and editable, but only rendered active when user is in quad view, or axis aligned ortho view.

Previously Spline IK provided only two choices: either scale the
length of the bone chain to fit the length of the curve, or don't
scale the bone in the Y dimension at all (ignoring effects of
actually fitting to the curve due to curvature and curve object
scale).
This patch adds a new option to use the pre-IK Y scale of the
bones to adjust their length when fitted to the curve, allowing
individual posing control over the length of the segments.

This commit adds support for drawing Dots strokes with a gradient factor to get artistic effects like watercolor.
Currently, the option is only supported by Dots materials, and in the future will be added to line strokes, but now there is a limitation on drawing engine and we will keep disabled on Line materials.
Also, added the option to align Dots and Boxes strokes textures aligned with the drawing path to get more fluid strokes.
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.
Make the option enabled by default, and enable it in old files,
unless Show Extremes is enabled.
However, suppress it for the Timeline, because its View menu
doesn't include the option.

The popover for displaying gizmos now has options for
empty, light & camera gizmos.
Transform toggles are now checkboxes, which has the advantage that it's
more obvious they can be mixed however changing from one to another now
uses 3x clicks instead of a single click-drag action.
We might need a faster way to switch between transform types.
Based on feedback from animators, this is useful to keep as a view
option (as in 2.7x).
Now the transform gizmos can be enabled from the popover,
the tools still work for location/scale/rotation.
The transform tool has been removed.

This is something where there is no single correct behavior,
sometimes it's needed to ignore the crease to make mesh more
smooth. But sometimes crease is to be considered after first
subdivision surface: for example, when adding extra subdivisions
for render-time displacement.
Made it an option whether modifier needs to take crease into
account or not.
Existing files should be openable in the 2.7 compatible way,
to re-create an old behavior the options is to be manually
disabled in the modifier settings.

Allows to preserve topology cache even when copy-on-write is
fully re-copying the object. For example, toggling edit mode
in and out does no longer causes full topology to be re-created.
A new parameter in the layer adjustment panel allows to define the color of the channel in Dopesheet.
This is needed when there are a lot of layers.
See D4623 for more details.
