The idea of the change is to avoid queue growing too long
and handle all the operations as quick as possible.
Gives about 3% speedup on one of the barber shots here.
In addition to pack of conflicts listed below, also had to comment out particle part of new Alembic code... :/

Current implementation more or less indiscriminately links physics
objects to colliders and forces, ignoring precise details of layer
checks and collider groups. The new depsgraph seemed to lack some
such links at all. The relevant code in modifiers suffers from a
lot of duplication.
Different physics simulations use independent implementations of
collision and similar things, which results in a lot of variance:
* Cloth collides with objects on same or visible layer with dupli.
* Softbody collides with objects on same layer without dupli.
* Non-hair particles collide on same layer with dupli.
* Smoke uses same code as cloth, but needs different modifier.
* Dynamic paint "collides" with brushes on any layer without dupli.
Force fields with absorption also imply dependency on colliders:
* For most systems, colliders are selected from same layer as field.
* For non-hair particles, it uses the same exact set as the particles.
As a special quirk, smoke ignores smoke flow force fields; on the other
hand dependency on such field implies dependency on the smoke domain.
This introduces two utility functions each for old and new depsgraph
that are flexible enough to handle all these variations, and uses them
to handle particles, cloth, smoke, softbody and dynpaint.
One thing to watch out for is that depsgraph code shouldn't rely on
any properties that don't cause a graph rebuild when changed. This
was violated in the original code that was building force field links,
while taking zero field weights into account.
This change may cause new dependency cycles in cases where necessary
dependencies were missing, but may also remove cycles in situations
where unnecessary links were previously created. It's also now possible
to solve some cycles by switching to explicit groups, since they are
now properly taken into account for dependencies.

The first character of the ID type was used to tag IDs for updates which
is weak since different IDs can have the same first character (for
example meshes, materials and metaballs), causing unnecessary updates of
unrelated IDs.
Now we use a unique index per ID type to tag for updates, unifying IDs
arrays indexing along the way.

All in all, this patch adds an Alembic importer, an Alembic exporter,
and a new CacheFile data block which, for now, wraps around an Alembic
archive. This data block is made available through a new modifier ("Mesh
Sequence Cache") as well as a new constraint ("Transform Cache") to
somewhat properly support respectively geometric and transformation data
streaming from alembic caches.
A more in-depth documentation is to be found on the wiki, as well as a
guide to compile alembic: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/

Many thanks to everyone involved in this little project, and huge shout
out to "cgstrive" for the thorough testings with Maya, 3ds Max, Houdini
and Realflow as well as @fjuhec, @jensverwiebe and @jasperge for the
custom builds and compile fixes.

This reverts commit 47d0d9cca4.
Reverting the commit. Not only it did not solve all the cases of proxy popping,
but also broke real cases with single proxy involved.
Replaces `G.is_rendering` with `use_render_params` argument.
This is needed for Cycles, which attempts to restore render-preview settings from particles,
after it gets its own particle data, but fails to restore because
`G.is_rendering` was being checked in psys_cache_paths (and other places).
Makes behavior of proxy_from backlink working similar to the old dependency graph.
it's nasty, but needed here in the studio to get proxies fixes ASAP.
It was possible to have issues in cases when several child dependencies
goes to IDs with different layers. In this case order of flushing was not
really well defined, which could lead to cases when indirect dependency
via invisible object wouldn't work.
Need some sort of barrier to prevent scheduling of parent nodes for until
all children are done, but that's becoming quite nasty thing to implement.
Added a temp field to component for now. maybe it's not so crazy actually
and we might use it for evaluation as well, so we wouldn't flush updates
to components which does not affect visible stuff.
This is mainly a maintenance commit which was aimed to make work with
this module more pleasant and solve such issues as:
- Annoyance with looong files, which had craftload in them
- Usage of STL for the data structures we've got in BLI
- Possible symbol conflicts
- Not real clear layout of what is located where
So in this commit the following changes are done:
- STL is prohibited, it's not really predictable on various compilers,
with our BLI algorithms we can predict things much better.
There are still few usages of std::vector, but that we'll be
solving later once we've got similar thing in BLI.
- Simplify foreach loops, avoid using const_iterator all over the place.
- New directory layout, which is hopefully easier to follow.
- Some files were split, some of them will be split soon.
The idea of this is to split huge functions into own files with
good documentation and everything.
- Removed stuff which was planned for use in the future but was never
finished, tested or anything.
Let's wipe it out for now, and bring back once we really start using
it, so it'll be more clear if it solves our needs.
- All the internal routines were moved to DEG namespace to separate
them better from rest of blender.
Some places now annoyingly using DEG::foo, but that we can olve by
moving some utility functions inside of the namespace.
While working on this we've found some hotspot in updates flush, so
now playback of blenrig is few percent faster (something like 96fps
with previous master and around 99-100fps after this change).
Not saying it's something final, there is still room for cleanup and
API simplification, but those might happen as a regular development
now without doing any global changes.
It uses some additional compute power and the evaluation priority is
not even used.
This brings fps 88.2 with blenrig_for_debugging.blend on this desktop.
