When using LookDev in Quad view the cache was only updated for the first
Q-view. The evaluation data of the last cache was not stored with the
lightprobe textures. As the evaluation data was reused between the
Q-views only the lightprobe textures of the first view was updated.
With this patch the evaluated data is stored amongside the actual
lightprobe textures.

This fix saves the camera matrices in order to not call
BKE_animsys_evaluate_animdata during each draw loop. This function tags
the view as dirty even if the camera does not move.
This effectivly, avoids the constant reset of TAA.
This was due to environement not being rendered with alpha blending. So
color was still written and contributed to the final render color. Now
we multiply by background alpha so that it removes any background pixels
intensity.
For this reason this made the (incorrect) final premult unecessary.
* Use simple default view transform for color pickers, as Filmic does not work
well for all types of colors. We better handle this with an option and tagging
of colors as emissive or albedo like.
* For solid/workbench we also no longer use Filmic, as there is not enough contrast
and it's not really needed since this is not physically based lighting.
* For lookdev always take into account the view transform and look. Other view
settings like exposure are only taken into account if scene lighting is used,
since these are often dependent on scene light intensity.

The crash only occurs with Intel 3rd generation GPUs.
It occurs because the program needs to be used at least once in the opengl context in which it is created.
This setting can be tweaked to improve glossy reflection cubemaps.
It increases the sample count for each roughness level.
This settings affect the lookdev mode quality as well.
This enables reducing the noise comming from very bright light sources
(like a sun) that can be found in distant HDRIs.
The lost energy may be replaced manually by a sunlight that compensate the
this loss.
This clamping only concerns Reflection Cubmaps and is done on all on all
of them.
Setting to 0.0 disables it (default).
This is a parameter that will make the interpolation between irradiance
cells of a same Irradiance Volume smoother, reducing the weight of the
light leaking correction factors.
It is usefull in some cases to avoid harsh lighting transition that can
happen when a sample point it near a surface.
This is an important change. Starting from now, all lights have a finite
influence radius (similar to the old sphere option for BI).
In order to avoid costly setup time, this distance is first computed
automatically based on a light threshold. The distance is computed
at the light origin and using the inverse square falloff. The setting
can be found inside the render settings panel > shadow tab.
This light threshold does not take the light shape into account an may not
suit every case. That's why we provide a per lamp override where you can
just set the cutt off distance (Light Properties Panel > Light >
Custom Distance).
The influence distance is also used as shadow far clip distance.
This influence distance does not concerns sun lights that still have a
far clip distance.

This change is important because it makes it possible to cull lights
an improve performance drastically in the future.
This makes it possible to tweak indirect lighting in the shader.
Only a subset of the outputs is supported and the ray depth has not exactly
the same meaning:
Is Camera : Supported.
Is Shadow : Supported.
Is Diffuse : Supported.
Is Glossy : Supported.
Is Singular : Not supported. Same as Is Glossy.
Is Reflection : Not supported. Same as Is Glossy.
Is Transmission : Not supported. Same as Is Glossy.
Ray Length : Not supported. Defaults to 1.0.
Ray Depth : Indicate the current bounce when baking the light cache.
Diffuse Depth : Same as Ray Depth but only when baking diffuse light.
Glossy Depth : Same as Ray Depth but only when baking specular light.
Transparent Depth : Not supported. Defaults to 0.
Transmission Depth : Not supported. Same as Glossy Depth.
Caveat: Is Glossy does not work with Screen Space Reflections but does work
with reflection planes (when used with SSR or not).
We have to render the world twice for that to work.
This option make the internal render size larger than the output size in
order to minimize screenspace effects disapearing at the render edges.
The overscan size added around the render is the maximum dimension
multiplied by the overscan percentage.
This new option is located in the shadows options in the render settings.
This approach is simple and just randomize the shadow map position (not
the lamp itself) and just let the temporal supersampling do the average of
all the shadowing. The downside is that is needs quite a large number of
samples to give smooth results and individual sample position can remain
visible.
Enabling this option will make the viewport refresh all shadow maps every
redraw so it has a serious performance impact.
This approach is not physicaly based at all and will not match cycles.

The sampling for point lamps (spheres) is not
Adding a workaround in this case: we blit the depth buffer instead of the
stencil buffer and use the copy as the texture. This is slower but at
least it should work.
NOTE: There is a float imprecision near the focus plane
due to the current technique used for DOF. This makes the alpha channel
transparent on nearly in focus objects even when they should not.
This artifact should be fixed when the DOF will use scatter as gather for
low brightness areas.
Fix T57042 : Eevee does not render alpha when DOF is turned on
There was an issue caused by Antialiasing being done after DoF. Move TAA
after DOF and Motion Blur.
Also certain pixel with lower CoC would be spread all over the background
because the neighbooring pixel have higher CoC. So we need to apply some
bilateral filtering when downsampling. Currently we limit the influence of
neighbor pixels with a CoC inside the range [MaxCoC-2, MaxCoC].
This ignores the scene color managment view settings for solid mode and
lookdev when not using scene lights and world. The scene settings are
intended for tweaking renders and should not affect studio lighting and
matcaps.
There may be cases where a simple sRGB transform is better than Filmic
and we could add configuration for this. Not sure if it really matters
and it may be better if we just assume matcaps and studiolights are all
created for one view transform.

This separate probe rendering from viewport rendering, making possible to
run the baking in another thread (non blocking and faster).
The baked lighting is saved in the blend file. Nothing needs to be
recomputed on load.
There is a few missing bits / bugs:
- Cache cannot be saved to disk as a separate file, it is saved in the DNA
for now making file larger and memory usage higher.
- Auto update only cubemaps does update the grids (bug).
- Probes cannot be updated individually (considered as dynamic).
- Light Cache cannot be (re)generated during render.
Now we light with just a user defined HDRI by default, which is useful
for material setup and texture painting and lighting without having to
set up any scene lights.
Previously it would use the scene world without lights by default, which
in some files is just black.
