For correct results these must have been set already when the depsgraph was
created and evaluated, so all dependencies have appropriate resolutions too.
For particle we no longer backup and restore the viewport particles to avoid
overwriting them during render, as copy-on-write solves this for us. Even
without COW particles seem to work ok.
This also removes the particle simplification options based on camera. This
was never used much and only available in Blender Internal.

- Undo that changes modes currently asserts,
since undo is now screen data.
Most likely we will change how object mode and workspaces work
since it's not practical/maintainable at the moment.
- Removed view_layer from particle settings
(wasn't needed and complicated undo).
Use more generic id->recalc flag.
Also sanitize flag flush from settings to particle system.
Need to do such flush before triggering point cache reset, since
point cache reset will do some logic based on what flags are set.
This will solve crash caused by threaded update which will set
some bitflags while point cache reset is in progress.
- put render iterator in own scope
(would shadow it's own variable if used multiple times).
- enforce semicolon at end of iterator macros.
- no need to typedef one-off macro structs.
The idea is to give a control over direction of twist, and maybe amount of
twist as well. More concrete example: make braids on left and right side of
character head to be twisting opposite directions.
Now, tricky part: we need some negative values to flip direction, but weights
can not be negative. So we use same trick as displacement map and tangent normal
maps, where 0.5 is neutral, values below 0.5 are considered negative and values
above 0.5 are considered positive.
It allows to have children hair to be twisted around parent curve, which is
quite an essential feature when creating hair braids.
There are currently two controls:
- Number of turns around parent children.
- Influence curve, which allows to modify "twistness" along the strand.
The conditionals in particle code are... some sort of madness... I'm not
even sure what the correct behavior should be from looking at it.
In this case the path cache generation was being skipped in edit mode.
Now all the fine-tuning is happening using parallel range settings structure,
which avoid passing long lists of arguments, allows extend fine-tuning further,
avoid having lots of various functions which basically does the same thing.
The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

2.8x branch added bContext arg in many places,
pass eval-context instead since its not simple to reason about what
what nested functions do when they can access and change almost anything.
Also use const to prevent unexpected modifications.
This fixes crash loading files with shadows,
since off-screen buffers use a NULL context for rendering.
Even strands that were excluded by the density texture were being added
to the DM passed to cloth, but these ended up having some invalid data,
because they were not fully constructed.
This simply excludes `UNEXISTED` particles from the DM generation, as
would be expected.
Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
Previously tagging particle settings for update will iterate over all objects and
all their particle system to see whether something needs an update or not. Now we
put ParticleSettings as an ID to the dependency graph, so tagging it for update
will nicely flush updates to all dependent particle systems.
Current downside of this is that due to limitation of flush routines it will cause
some extra particle system re-evaluation when it technically not needed, and what's
more annoying currently it will discard point caches more often.
However, this is a good and simple demonstration case to improve tagging/flushing
system to accommodate for such cases (similar issues happens with CoW and shading
components). So let's try to find some generic solution to the problem!

User Commit Log
---------------
* New Layer and Collection system to replace render layers and viewport layers.
* A layer is a set of collections of objects (and their drawing options) required for specific tasks.
* A collection is a set of objects, equivalent of the old layers in Blender. A collection can be shared across multiple layers.
* All Scenes have a master collection that all other collections are children of.
* New collection "context" tab (in Properties Editor)
* New temporary viewport "collections" panel to control per-collection
visibility
Missing User Features
---------------------
* Collection "Filter"
Option to add objects based on their names
* Collection Manager operators
The existing buttons are placeholders
* Collection Manager drawing
The editor main region is empty
* Collection Override
* Per-Collection engine settings
This will come as a separate commit, as part of the clay-engine branch
Dev Commit Log
--------------
* New DNA file (DNA_layer_types.h) with the new structs
We are replacing Base by a new extended Base while keeping it backward
compatible with some legacy settings (i.e., lay, flag_legacy).
Renamed all Base to BaseLegacy to make it clear the areas of code that
still need to be converted
Note: manual changes were required on - deg_builder_nodes.h, rna_object.c, KX_Light.cpp
* Unittesting for main syncronization requirements
- read, write, add/copy/remove objects, copy scene, collection
link/unlinking, context)
* New Editor: Collection Manager
Based on patch by Julian Eisel
This is extracted from the layer-manager branch. With the following changes:
- Renamed references of layer manager to collections manager
- I doesn't include the editors/space_collections/ draw and util files
- The drawing code itself will be implemented separately by Julian
* Base / Object:
A little note about them. Original Blender code would try to keep them
in sync through the code, juggling flags back and forth. This will now
be handled by Depsgraph, keeping Object and Bases more separated
throughout the non-rendering code.
Scene.base is being cleared in doversion, and the old viewport drawing
code was poorly converted to use the new bases while the new viewport
code doesn't get merged and replace the old one.

Better to have clear way to tell whether flag is parameter for
BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(), parameter for its callback function, or
return value from this callback function.
