The initial design assumed that there was only one object for each unique name, but that was not the case when instances were created.
Now, instances are supported and speed has been greatly improved when repetitions are used.
As a result of this change, the option to create objects has been removed in the Instances modifier. This option was strange and was also against Blender's design rules, since a modifier should never create objects. The old functionality of the modifier can be achieved with instances.
Also, several memory leakage problems that were not previously detected have been eliminated, and especially in the grid and in the drawing process
Onion Skin is not supported in multi-user datablocks. Support this, makes incompatible with instances. We need find a solution in the long term, but now it's better keep disabled and make instances work. Anyway, the new instances makes unnecessary to use muli-user datablocks.
Add tool options to control how select operates (add/sub/set/and/xor).
Note: edit mode armature select still needs to support all options,
this is complicated by how it handles partial end-point selection.
Conversion code could leave object with inconsistent material data
compared to its new obdata.
Ideally, various conversion code would handle that properly, conserving
materials when possible, but for now at least ensure we get valid
result!
Currently no functional changes, just exposes all settings which we need
for OpenSubdiv, similar to what Subsurf modifier is doing already.

After clearing motion paths from objects, those objects needed to be
tagged for copy on write so that the copied data (i.e. viewport)
recieve the changes (i.e. removed paths)

- New grease pencil object.
- New drawing engine.
- New grease pencil modes Draw/Sculpt/Edit and Weight Paint.
- New brushes for grease pencil.
- New modifiers for grease pencil.
- New shaders FX.
- New material system (replace old palettes and colors).
- Split of annotations (old grease pencil) and new grease pencil object.
- UI adapted to blender 2.8.

This is the result of nearly two years of development and I want thanks firstly the other members of the grease pencil team: Daniel M. Lara, Matias Mendiola and Joshua Leung for their support, ideas and to keep working in the project all the time, without them this project had been impossible.
Also, I want thanks other Blender developers for their help, advices and to be there always to help me, and specially to Clément Foucault, Dalai Felinto, Pablo Vázquez and Campbell Barton.
`BKE_pose_rebuild()` should (ideally) always trigger a rebuild of the
depsgraph, since it can add or remove posechannels.
This function now takes a Main parameter to ensure that related
depsgraphes are tagged as dirty (kept it optional, for some corner cases).
We should also probably double-check calls to that function, think in
theory it should only be called from depsgraph itself? But for now...
The approach of setting 'refresh' flags on the modifier, and performing
the associated actions when the modifier is being evaluated, is a bad
one. Instead, we use the separation of the original and the evaluated
copy to 'refresh' certain things (because they simply aren't set at all
on the original). Other actions are now done directly with BKE_ocean_xxx
functions on the original data, intead of during evaluation.
Based on discussion with @eyecandy & @venomgfx,
we agreed that Tab drag/click, is too easy to accidentally press
while moving the cursor.
It's also not typical to activate the operator on release which
introduces a small lag switching edit-mode.
This is a shame since in some ways its a nice way to re-use the key,
overall it just feels a little too unpredictable for such an important
action.
This commit makes the following changes.
- Tab: toggles edit-mode.
- Ctrl-Tab: opens pie menu.
- Ctrl-AccentGrave: toggles manipulator.
Note, while AccentGrave isn't always available
this shortcut is not essential.
This prevents having to wrap each call to sbFree() in an if(ob->soft)
condition and assign ob->soft = NULL after calling.
Furthermore, passing `Object *` allows us to change freeing behaviour
depending on whether the object is an evaluated copy or an original (not
done in this commit yet).
This unifies two almost-identical functions at the expense of having to
add one single 'flag' value at one call.
This makes copy_softbody() aware of the source/dest objects, allowing it
to make a distinction between doing depsgraph evaluation copies and real
object copies. This will be used in an upcoming commit to ensure that
the pointcache is shared between CoW copies, similar to the current
approach for rigidbody simulation.
Access to main database is actually rarely needed, but some custom
'apply' functions do need it (like Collections' overriding of objects or
children collections).
