Parenting to a curve path animation depends on both geometry and
transform components. Conversion of mesh to curve will make it so
parent have path animation, conversion of curve to mesh makes it
so there is no more path animation. Both cases affects children
of the converted objects, and it's not possible to rely on special
case for curve parent in the dependency graph as that link will be
lost after conversion of curve to mesh.
Simplest approach is to tag object for both geometry and transform
update, which will ensure all children are at valid state after
the conversion.
The old value (1.0) was often too large in practice. When many collection
instances are created, the large empties create a mess in the viewport.
This adds a new preference setting in `Editing -> Objects -> New Objects`
called `Instance Empty Size`.
The value will be used as display size for new empties containing a
collection instance.

There was an assert here as well since using the original object to read
from was having an empty runtime curve cache.
Now use BKE_vfont_to_curve_ex instead of BKE_vfont_to_curve, so we can
read from the evaluated object and write to the original curves in order
to have the modified data taken into account on next object evaluation.
(BKE_vfont_to_curve would read and write to/from the same object)
Final solution provided by @sergey in that report, thx!
Note this only changes cases where the variable was declared inside
the for loop. To handle it outside as well is a different challenge.

The `BKE_animsys.h` and `anim_sys.c` files already had a an "AnimData
API" section. The code in that section has now been split off, and
placed into `BKE_anim_data.h` and `anim_data.c`.
All files that used to include `BKE_animsys.h` have been adjusted to
only include the animation headers they need (sometimes none).
No functional changes.
The files are now split up into the following sections:
- `BKE_anim_path.h` and `anim_path.c` for path/curve functions.
- `BKE_anim_visualization.h` and `anim_visualizationanim_path.c` for
animation visualization (mostly motion paths).
- `BKE_duplilist.h` for DupliList function declarations. These were
already implemented in `object_dupli.c`, so they were rather out of
place being declared in `BKE_anim.h` in the first place.
No functional changes.
This commit is a full refactor of the grease pencil modules including Draw Engine, Modifiers, VFX, depsgraph update, improvements in operators and conversion of Sculpt and Weight paint tools to real brushes.
Also, a huge code cleanup has been done at all levels.
Thanks to @fclem for his work and yo @pepeland and @mendio for the testing and help in the development.

The old convention was easy to confuse with ScrArea.
Part of https://developer.blender.org/T74432.
This is mostly a batch rename with some manual fixing. Only single word
variable names are changed, no prefixed/suffixed names.
Brecht van Lommel and Campbell Barton both gave me a green light for
this convention change.
Also ran clan clang format on affected files.
This clarifies logic in ED_object_add_generic_get_opts (see comments in
code).
Also following issues are adressed:
- do not enforce setting the op UI to WORLD when rotation is set (e.g.
on redo). This is not wrong (happens in world space), but is more
confusing than helpful (was added in own rB3b8a14a3c072).
- respect setting the User Preference to WORLD properly (could fail when
set to something else, then back to WORLD)

We can't use the fast path when the mesh is used by mulitple objects and so
slower sculpting is expected then. But fake users should not affect this. This
also fixes the same type of error in a few other areas.
### Description of the problem
Until now, it is only possible to correctly add a lightprobe in python via an operator:
`bpy.ops.object.lightprobe_add()`
### Description of the proposed solution
The idea of this patch is to fix the lack of consistency lightprobe creation without operator.
It allow creation of different lightprobe type directly via `bpy.data.lightprobes.new(name, type)` (such as for curves).
In order to make it possible I had to:
1. Add a function `BKE_lightprobe_configure` in charge of lightprobe settings configuration (avoid code redundancy)
2. Allow an object to take lightprobe datablock as data during is initialization.
### A short example of this patch usage
```
lp = bpy.data.lightprobes.new('some_name','PLANAR')
bpy.data.objects.new('toto', lp)
```

Note: done in a separated commit to keep track of changes done not directly related to bug reported in T69459.
Users now can turn on in a viewport collections that are temporarily
hidden (eye) in the view layer.
Design task: T61327
As for the implementation, I had to decouple the visibility in the
depsgraph from the visibility in the view layer.
Also there is a "bug" that in a way was there before which is some
operators (e.g., writing a text inside of a text object, tab into edit
mode) run regardless of the visibility of the active object. The bug was
present already (with object type visibility restriction) in 2.80 so if
we decide to tackle it, can be done separately (I have a patch for it
though P1132).

This commit adds support to convert curves to Grease Pencil strokes and create the materials too.
Also, there is a new python API. This API is required by the modified SVG import addon to create strokes( see T67065).
All curves selected in one operation are converted in the same Grease Pencil object.
Adds a toggle to the filter menu for outliner synced selection. Enabled
by default, this ensures selection is synced between objects, bones, and
sequences. An active outliner element theme color is added to indicate
which element is active.
Synced selection is controlled on the operator level. Each operator
that modifies selection for objects, bones, sequences, or outliner
elements needs to call the respective ED_outliner_select_sync_from..
function to tag outliners to be synced.
Syncing is done lazily on outliner draw.
No need to use BKE_object_where_is_calc() in this case: there is no
parenting or constraint system involved on object add.
So simply use direct object matrix calculation from it's local
transform. No need in dependency graph either in this case.
This change ensures that operators which needs access to evaluated data
first makes sure there is a dependency graph.
Other accesses to the dependency graph made it more explicit about
whether they just need a valid dependency graph pointer or whether they
expect the graph to be already evaluated.
This replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA which is now removed.
Some general rules about usage of accessors:
- Drawing is expected to happen from a fully evaluated dependency graph.
There is now a function to access it, which will in the future control
that dependency graph is actually evaluated.
This check is not yet done because there are some things to be taken
care about first: for example, post-update hooks might leave scene in
a state where something is still tagged for update.
- All operators which needs to access evaluated state must use
CTX_data_ensure_evaluated_depsgraph().
This function replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA.
The call is generally to be done in the very beginning of the
operator, prior other logic (unless this is some comprehensive
operator which might or might not need access to an evaluated state).
This call is never to be used from a loop.
If some utility function requires evaluated state of dependency graph
the graph is to be passed as an explicit argument. This way it is
clear that no evaluation happens in a loop or something like this.
- All cases which needs to know dependency graph pointer, but which
doesn't want to actually evaluate it can use old-style function
CTX_data_depsgraph_pointer(), assuming that underlying code will
ensure dependency graph is evaluated prior to accessing it.
- The new functions are replacing OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA, so now it is
explicit and local about where dependency graph is being ensured.
This commit also contains some fixes of wrong usage of evaluation
functions on original objects. Ideally should be split out, but in
reality with all the APIs being renamed is quite tricky.
Fixes T67454: Blender crash on rapid undo and select
Speculation here is that sometimes undo and selection operators are
sometimes handled in the same event loop iteration, which leaves
non-evaluated dependency graph.

When `BKE_mesh_new_from_object()` cannot convert an object to a mesh, it
returns `NULL`. This case was not handled at all in
`BKE_mesh_new_from_object_to_bmain()` or `curvetomesh()`, causing a
segmentation fault.
This commit fixes the segmentation fault, and leaves the curve object as

Preserving/rebuilding relashionships in recursive instancing was simply
not supported at all, code handling that was assuming a single level of
instancing.
This commit makes the following changes:
* Mixing DupliCollection and DupliVerts/Faces in the recursive chain is
now supported (by using a same GHash in all cases, differences of
persistent_id handling in hashing and comparison is now down inside the
relevant functions).
* When both "keep hierarchy" and "parent" options are enabled, code will
attempt to parent new objects to their version of instancer (instead of
parenting them systematically to the root object). This will preserve
the hierarchy much better.
* Collection is removed from dupli empties that have been made 'real'
(the duplication flag itself was already cleared, but the link to the
instantiated collection was kept).
Not much to be done here really, besides adding yet another hack to that
giant pile of hacks that are mballs...
So to avoid newly created copy of basis of mball to influence to mball
computation, we simply switch it to Empty object for the depsgraph
update run.
Not nice, but working (besides a weird change of basis obflag which
should not happen), and presumably reasonably safe change.
