The custom poll function for surfacedeform_bind seems to have caused
issues when calling it from Python. Fixed by using the generic modifier
poll function, and setting the button to be active or not in the
Python UI code instead. (there might be a better way, but for now this
works fine)
Idea is to replace hard-to-track (id->lib != NULL) 'is linked datablock' check everywhere in Blender
by a macro doing the same thing. This will allow to easily spot those checks in future, and more importantly,
to easily change it (see work done in asset-engine branch).
Note: did not touch to readfile.c, since there most of the time 'id->lib' check actually concerns the pointer,
and not a check whether ID is linked or not. Will have a closer look at it later.

It's needed especially for the menu entry "recover auto save" where you'd like to have the files sorted by date most of the time but it could be useful in other places too.
There should be no functional change in other areas, I just added the missing parameter (FILE_SORT_ALPHA).
Was a request from @sebastian_k at #BCon13, so at least one guy needs it ;)

This calls are not strictly speaking needed for the old dependency graph, but
due to more granular nature of upcoming depsgraph more actions requires update
of relations of IDs.
On the one hand this extra tags could be wrapped with if() statements, but on
the other hand it makes sense to keep tag in sync so it's clear if some issue
is caused by missing/extra tag or by depsgraph itself.
The idea is pretty simple: instead of making temporary copy of all the
related custom data layers just pass the ownership from the DM to the
mesh.
This is really handy in cases when you've got DM which you need to
convert to Mesh datablock and wouldn't need that DM after conversion
anyway.
Foe example, render database conversion, exporters and even Modifier
Apply will benefit from this option.

Not much to add, modifier uses same code as operator basically, only key difference
is that modifier will never create data layers itself, you have to use dedicated operator
for that.
Along with some minor cleanup and simplifications.

Sculpt mode drawing fails after deleting a subsurf modifier
in sculpt mode and undoing.
This was quite difficult to spot. Main cause was that mesh data was not
synchronized properly between undo and sculpt code because we generated
a pbvh on derivedmesh invalidation without really refreshing the rest of
the data. This could result in undo and drawing operating on different
data.
To solve this and avoid bad level calls I had to move quite some code
around. Crazyspace is now moved to blenkernel, as did some sculpt calls
that make sure sculpt data are properly refreshed.
Summary:
Made objects update happening from multiple threads. It is a task-based
scheduling system which uses current dependency graph for spawning new
tasks. This means threading happens on object level, but the system is
flexible enough for higher granularity.
Technical details:
- Uses task scheduler which was recently committed to trunk
(that one which Brecht ported from Cycles).
- Added two utility functions to dependency graph:
* DAG_threaded_update_begin, which is called to initialize threaded
objects update. It will also schedule root DAG node to the queue,
hence starting evaluation process.
Initialization will calculate how much parents are to be evaluation
before current DAG node can be scheduled. This value is used by task
threads for faster detecting which nodes might be scheduled.
* DAG_threaded_update_handle_node_updated which is called from task
thread function when node was fully handled.
This function decreases num_pending_parents of node children and
schedules children with zero valency.
As it might have become clear, task thread receives DAG nodes and
decides which callback to call for it.
Currently only BKE_object_handle_update is called for object nodes.
In the future it'll call node->callback() from Ali's new DAG.
- This required adding some workarounds to the render pipeline.
Mainly to stop using get_object_dm() from modifiers' apply callback.
Such a call was only a workaround for dependency graph glitch when
rendering scene with, say, boolean modifiers before displaying
this scene.
Such change moves workaround from one place to another, so overall
hackentropy remains the same.
- Added paradigm of EvaluaitonContext. Currently it's more like just a
more reliable replacement for G.is_rendering which fails in some
circumstances.
Future idea of this context is to also store all the local data needed
for objects evaluation such as local time, Copy-on-Write data and so.
There're two types of EvaluationContext:
* Context used for viewport updated and owned by Main. In the future
this context might be easily moved to Window or Screen to allo
per-window/per-screen local time.
* Context used by render engines to evaluate objects for render purposes.
Render engine is an owner of this context.
This context is passed to all object update routines.

Summary:
Before this adding Surface type of force field and removing
this field would leave Surface modifier alive in the stack.
This might be really misleading and annoying.
Now removing force field will ensure no modifiers needed for
it are remained in the stack.
This also fixes missing notifier to redraw modifier stack
when changing force field type.

Seems to be a regression when Campbell was working on T24009.
Bind operator exec handles curves nicely, could not see reason
why to disable this with a poll function.
From quick tests everything seems to be just fine.
Patch by Martin Felke, many thanks.
When copying that modifier across objects, we also have to ensure that a skin CDLayer is present in dest objects (just as when adding it).
So far it was harmless, but with upcoming changes having this
argument could be confusing from logic point of view
