These are from the ARB_vertex_type_2_10_10_10_rev extension that became part of OpenGL 3.3.
So they are new, but only exist for compatibility with immediate mode, which is old.

User Commit Log
---------------
* New Layer and Collection system to replace render layers and viewport layers.
* A layer is a set of collections of objects (and their drawing options) required for specific tasks.
* A collection is a set of objects, equivalent of the old layers in Blender. A collection can be shared across multiple layers.
* All Scenes have a master collection that all other collections are children of.
* New collection "context" tab (in Properties Editor)
* New temporary viewport "collections" panel to control per-collection
visibility
Missing User Features
---------------------
* Collection "Filter"
Option to add objects based on their names
* Collection Manager operators
The existing buttons are placeholders
* Collection Manager drawing
The editor main region is empty
* Collection Override
* Per-Collection engine settings
This will come as a separate commit, as part of the clay-engine branch
Dev Commit Log
--------------
* New DNA file (DNA_layer_types.h) with the new structs
We are replacing Base by a new extended Base while keeping it backward
compatible with some legacy settings (i.e., lay, flag_legacy).
Renamed all Base to BaseLegacy to make it clear the areas of code that
still need to be converted
Note: manual changes were required on - deg_builder_nodes.h, rna_object.c, KX_Light.cpp
* Unittesting for main syncronization requirements
- read, write, add/copy/remove objects, copy scene, collection
link/unlinking, context)
* New Editor: Collection Manager
Based on patch by Julian Eisel
This is extracted from the layer-manager branch. With the following changes:
- Renamed references of layer manager to collections manager
- I doesn't include the editors/space_collections/ draw and util files
- The drawing code itself will be implemented separately by Julian
* Base / Object:
A little note about them. Original Blender code would try to keep them
in sync through the code, juggling flags back and forth. This will now
be handled by Depsgraph, keeping Object and Bases more separated
throughout the non-rendering code.
Scene.base is being cleared in doversion, and the old viewport drawing
code was poorly converted to use the new bases while the new viewport
code doesn't get merged and replace the old one.

```
Better to have clear way to tell whether flag is parameter for
BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(), parameter for its callback function, or
return value from this callback function.
Use Main->relations in BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(), when possible
(i.e. IDWALK_READONLY is set), and if the data is available of course.
This is quite minor optimization, no sensible improvements are expected,
but does not hurt either to avoid potentially tens of looping over e.g.
objects constraints and modifiers, or heap of drivers...
Please **DO NOT** add changes from master when it's totally uneeded!
Changes to BLI_ area most certainly shall *always* be done in master,
there is absolutely no point in adding more diff between the two
branches than needed, will only makes merging more cumbersome!

This gives us 9 flags available again for properties (we had none anymore),
and also makes things slightly cleaner.
To simplify (and make more clear the differences between mere properties
and function parameters), also added RNA_def_parameter_flags function (and
its clear counterpart), to be used instead of RNA_def_property_flag for
function parameters.
This patch is also a big cleanup (some RNA function definitions were
still using 'prop' PropertyRNA pointer, etc.).
And yes, am aware this will be annoying for all branches, but we really need
to get new flags available for properties (will need at least one for override, etc.).

Just return the face or NULL, like BM_edge_exists(),
Also for BM_face_exists_overlap & bm_face_exists_tri_from_loop_vert.
No functional changes.
Old code did some partial overlap checks where this made some sense,
but it's since been removed.
Issue here was that py API code was keeping references (pointers) to the
liniked data-blocks, which can actually be duplicated and then deleted
during the 'make local' process...
Would have like to find a better way than passing optional GHash to get
the oldid->newid mapping, but could not think of a better idea.
Blender doesn't necessarily crash when Python doesn't keep references to
the returned strings. As a result, someone that implements this incorrectly
could be lulled into a false sense of correctness by Blender not crashing.
This is internal pointer helper for scene evaluation and tools, though exposed to bpy API,
it can give false 'dependency cycles' in bpy.data.user_map() results.
That's followup to rBe007552442634 really, both should be backported to 2.78
This is internal pointer helper for scene evaluation and tools, it's not exposed to bpy API anyway,
and can give false 'dependency cycles' in bpy.data.user_map() results.
Found by sybren in his Splode work.
Regression from rB036c006cefe471. We can't use self here, self is bpy.app, not pydescriptor of python path getsetter...
So for now, do not try to replace getsetter by actual value in bpy.app's dict,
just return static var generated on first run.
Should be safe for 2.78.
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/
User:Kevindietrich/AlembicBasicIo.
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.
