This is still far from prefect, but yet much better than what we had so
far (more consistent with inheritent precision available in floats).
Note that this fixes some (currently commented out) units unittests, and
requires adjusting some others, will be done in next commit.
* Numbers with units (especially, angles) where not handled correctly
regarding number of significant digits (spotted by @brecht in T52222
comment, thanks).
* Zero value has no valid log, need to take that into account!
Running undo would notify manipulators to refresh,
but this still allowed for events in the queue to be handled,
where manipulators could be drawn for selection before
their refresh callback runs.
This made Python manipulators raise exceptions
about referencing invalid data (or crash).
Now tag manipulator update on file load (including undo)
and ensure the refresh callback runs
before drawing manipulator selection.
Also split manipulator map refresh flag in two since selection doesn't
perform the same operations as regular drawing.
Even strands that were excluded by the density texture were being added
to the DM passed to cloth, but these ended up having some invalid data,
because they were not fully constructed.
This simply excludes `UNEXISTED` particles from the DM generation, as
would be expected.
`defvert_array_find_weight_safe()` was confusing 'invalid vgroup' and
'valid but totally empty vgroup' cases.
Note that this also affected at least ShrinkWrap and SimpleDeform
modifiers.
Those functions did not use evaluation context.
Also fixed lots of unused variables warnings caused by commented out code which
needs to be ported away from DerivedMesh and to evaluation context.
Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
GCC seems to detect uninitialized into function calls now, but then isn't
always smart enough to see that it is actually initialized. Disabling this
warning entirely seems a bit too much, so initialize a bit more now.
Currently RNA doesn't give us a good way of accessing singleton layers,
for now expose as a layer list (skin & paint-pask do this too).
Noted in T47811 that this should be changed.
Previously tagging particle settings for update will iterate over all objects and
all their particle system to see whether something needs an update or not. Now we
put ParticleSettings as an ID to the dependency graph, so tagging it for update
will nicely flush updates to all dependent particle systems.
Current downside of this is that due to limitation of flush routines it will cause
some extra particle system re-evaluation when it technically not needed, and what's
more annoying currently it will discard point caches more often.
However, this is a good and simple demonstration case to improve tagging/flushing
system to accommodate for such cases (similar issues happens with CoW and shading
components). So let's try to find some generic solution to the problem!
For users that means you can tweak shaders in the nodetree and things
are way faster. This is a huge improvement, particularly in
systems that have no shader cache.
From the code perspective it means we are no longer re-compiling the
shader every time a value is tweaked in the UI. We are using uniforms
for those values.
It would be slow to add that many uniforms for all the shaders. So
instead we are using UBO (Uniform Buffer Objects).
This fixes the main issue of T51467. However GWN_shaderinterface_create() still
needs to be improvedi. When opening a .blend all shaders are compiled once, so
optimizing it will bring a measurable impact.
========================================================================
NOTE: This breaks update of Cycles material upon nodetree nodes
tweaking. It will be fixed separately by depsgraph, once tackling T51925
(Animated Eevee values slowdown).
The idea is to make Depsgraph update more granular. The XXX TODO in
rna_nodetree.c will be tackled at that time as well.

This commit effectively makes workspace switching useless as far as the
active scene layer goes.
The functions from the scene layer API to get the correct scene layer
from "context" were a placeholder to be addressed by the workspace
commit.
When workspace was merged, however G.main was used as a replacement to pass the
correct argument for the functions. As it turned out (surprise!) this
leads to crash on render preview.
We need to get rid of:
* BKE_scene_layer_context_active_ex_PLACEHOLDER
* BKE_scene_layer_context_active_PLACEHOLDER
And either use SceneLayer explicitly or replace it by:
* BKE_scene_layer_from_workspace_get
This is a first step towards proper depsgraph "ownership", where
we would allow scene to be in multiple states dependent on active
workspace or scene layer.
This commit introduces a basic API to get proper dependency graph
for a given scene layer. It also renames scene->depsgraph to
depsgraph_legacy, so it's easier to search0-n-replace in the future.
This makes sense when we want to avoid float precision error
for near co-linear edges. OTOH, this is an arbitrary decision,
so keep functions separate.
Hashed Alpha transparency offers a noisy output but has the benefit of being correctly ordered. Noise can be attenuated with Multisampling / AntiAliasing.
