Instead of calling an operator I just call `collection.new()`. Moving the
code into a separate function also simplifies it. In its new form there is
also no undefined behaviour when me.vertex_colors is non-empty but without
active layer.
- normalize → average the vector: the vector isn't normalized here, because
it doesn't necessarily becomes unit length. Instead, the sum is converted
to an average vector.
- angle is the acos()…: the dot product between the vertex normal and the
average direction of the connected vertices is computed, and not the
opposite.
- The initial `con` list was discarded immediately and replaced by a new
list.
- File didn't end with a newline.
We've got quite comprehensive BMesh based implementation, which is way easier
for maintenance than abandoned Carve library.
After all the time BMesh implementation was working on the same level of
limitations about manifold meshes and touching edges than Carve. Is better
to focus on maintaining one boolean implementation now.

- Read-only access can often use EvaluationContext.object_mode
- Write access to go to WorkSpace.object_mode.
- Some TODO's remain (marked as "TODO/OBMODE")
- Add-ons will need updating
(context.active_object.mode -> context.workspace.object_mode)
- There will be small/medium issues that still need resolving
this does work on a basic level though.

The idea here is that it should be easy to work in the outliner by picking a
bunch of objects and adding them to a new collection.
Where is the new collection? In the same level as the "outliner active" object.
Note, since the outliner has no pure concept of an active object, I'm using
the highlight tag for this. Hopefully it works fine.
It should work in "Collections", "View Layer", and "Groups".
Only when collections are not filtered out.
The check to see if `use_advanced_hair` was enabled was actually in two places
(render panel `draw` function and physics panel `poll` function). As these
properties are only in one place now the check in `draw` isn't needed anymore.

This adds midlevel and object/world space for displacement, and a
vector displacement node with tangent/object/world space, midlevel
and scale.
Note that tangent space vector displacement still is not exactly
compatible with maps created by other software, this will require
changes to the tangent computation.

When duplicating a layer collection directly linked to the view layer we copy
the collection and link it.
For all the not directly linked layer collectionns, we try to sync the layer
collection flags, overrides, ...
Also we make sure the new collection is right after the original collection.
We also expose this in RNA, via collection.duplicate().
This converts object space height to world space displacement, to be
linked to the new vector displacement material output.

This was introduced to the outliner when we had no User Preference
window back in 2.5x. Right now it makes no sense to keep this around.
But how about addon user preferences:
* They belong in the user preference window under the addon.
How about the user preferences themselves:
* You find them in the user preference window.
And templates?
* Why are they here in the first place?
After talking to Pablo Vazquez (who in turn poked Sergey Sharybin) we found
it reasonable to get rid of this. If it turns out that we were wrong we
revert this.
As for leaving this exposed as a debug option (as suggested on IRC) I would say
no, please. This end up polluting the code and never cleaned up in the end.
(this was specific talking about templates).
Technical note: I left the functions in outliner still hanging around.
While I used UNUSED_FUNCTION for one of them, for the other one I had to use:
`#if 0` because the function was calling itself, which would fail to build if
I used UNUSED_FUNCTION.
User notes:
The outliner so far was a great system to handle the object oriented workflow
we had in Blender prior to 2.8. However with the introduction of collections
the bloated ammount of data we were exposed at a given time was eventually
getting on the way of fully utilizing the outliner to manage collections and
their objects.
We hope that with this filtering system the user can put together the outliner
with whichever options he or she seem fit for a given task.
Features:
* Collection filter: In case users are only focused on objects.
* Object filter: Allow users to focus on collections only.
* (Object) content filter: Modifiers, mesh, contrainst, materials, ...
* (Object) children filter: Hide object children [1].
* Object State (visible, active, selected).
* Compact header: hide search options under a search toggle.
* Preserve scrolling position before/after filtering [2].
[1] - Note we still need to be able to tell if a children of an object is in a
collection, or if the parent object is the only one in the collection.
This in fact was one of the first motivations for this patch. But it is to
be addressed separately now that we can at least hide children away.
[2] - We look at the top-most collection in the outliner, and try to find it again
after the filtering and make sure it is in the same position as before.
This works nice now. But to work REALLY, REALLY nice we need to also store
the previous filter options to be sure the element we try to keep on top
was valid for both old and new filters. I would rather do this later though
since this smell a lot like feature creeping ;)
Remove no longer needed display options:
* Current Scene (replaced by View Layer/Collections)
* Visible (replaced by filter)
* Selected (same)
* Active (same)
* Same Type (same-ish)
How about All Scenes? I have a patch that will come next to replace the current
behaviour and focus only on compositing. So basically stop showing the objects
and show only view layers, their passes and collections, besides freestyle.
Also, while at this I'm also reorganizing the menu to keep View Layer and
Collections on top.
Developer notes:
* Unlike the per-object filtering, for collections we need to filter at tree
creation time, to prevent duplication of objects in the outliner.
Acknowledgements:
Thanks Pablo Vazquez for helping testing, thinking some design questions
together and pushing this to its final polished state as you see here.
Thanks Sergey Sharybin and Julian Eisel for code review. Julian couldn't do a
final review pass after I addressed his concerns. So blame is on me for any
issue I may be introducing here. Sergey was the author of the "preserve
scrolling position" idea. I'm happy with how it is working, thank you.

This operator not only links a collection, but it creates a new one and then it
links it. Although the preferrable method for users to handle their collections
is when viewing the "Collections", let's explore this workflow for now.
Suggested by Pablo Vazquez, thank you.
