Previously, every RenderPass would have a bitfield that specified its type. That limits the number of passes to 32, which was reached a while ago.
However, most of the code already supported arbitrary RenderPasses since they were also used to store Multilayer EXR images.
Therefore, this commit completely removes the passflag from RenderPass and changes all code to use the unique pass name for identification.
Since Blender Internal relies on hardcoded passes and to preserve compatibility, 32 pass names are reserved for the old hardcoded passes.
To support these arbitrary passes, the Render Result compositor node now adds dynamic sockets. For compatibility, the old hardcoded sockets are always stored and just hidden when the corresponding pass isn't available.
To use these changes, the Render Engine API now includes a function that allows render engines to add arbitrary passes to the render result. To be able to add options for these passes, addons can now add their own properties to SceneRenderLayers.
To keep the compositor input node updated, render engine plugins have to implement a callback that registers all the passes that will be generated.
From a user perspective, nothing should change with this commit.

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.

We were calling BLI_remlink and then BLI_insertlinkbefore/after quite often. BLI_listbase_link_move simplifies code a bit and makes it easier to follow. It also returns if link position has changed which can be used to avoid unnecessary updates.
Added it to a number of list reorder operators for now and made use of return value. Behavior shouldn't be changed.
Also some minor cleanup.
Error: `origin` and `edge` args were swapped in final `FindOccludee()` call of `ViewMapBuilder::ComputeRayCastingVisibility()`
Cleanup: main for loop in `Strip::createStrip()` was really confusing (though correct),
generated a false positive in coverity scan, now should be cleaner how it loops over its vprev/v/v2
triplet of consecutive items.
Group membership testing for including/excluding feature lines was not
accounting for object names possibly further qualified by library file
paths.
Also fixed a few potential (but unlikely) references of uninitialized
variables.
A big thank to Bastien Montagne for the insight on the cause of the
problem and how to fix it.
(A - A).norm() is always 0 so condition is always true.
(A - B).norm() and (B - A).norm() both compute the same distance so I
picked one to match surrounding code.
Found with PVS-Studio T48917
Now test_object_materials only handles one object. New test_all_objects_materials
checks the whole bmain->object list for cases where it is actually needed.
Should avoid some useless looping over all objects!
Two were actual bugs, though they existed only in unused code:
* In Freestyle it was unintentionally copying a scene rather than referencing it.
* In BLI_array_store_is_valid there was use of uninitialized memory.
FSAA sample files in EXR format are no longer always updated (after some
changes between 2.73 and 2.74 releases), and the reported bug was caused
by old samples from a previous frame that were being merged by mistake.
The present revision addresses the documented issue by entirely skipping
the rendering of auto-generated scenes when there are no Freestyle strokes
to render, which suppresses sample merging of the render layers that were
not rendered.
The addressed issue is a regression from Blender 2.75, after the internal
switch from double to single precision floating-point numbers in the
Freestyle code base. Face normal calculations require the higher
precision during the computations, even though the results can be stored
as single precision numbers.
This fixes reported issue, but there could be more of those hidden in Freestyle code,
it did not handle user refcount at all (and the fact it by-passes BKE in some places
for efficiency does not help here).
Note that this should be relatively harmless, since freestyle uses own Main during
render, so everything is cleaned up in the end in any case... But better try to
handle IDs correctly here too. :)
While SCons building system was serving us really good for ages it's no longer
having much attention by the developers and started to become quite a difficult
task to maintain.
What's even worse -- there started to be quite serious divergence between SCons
and CMake which was only accumulating over the releases now. The fact that none
of the active developers are really using SCons and that our main studio is also
using CMake spotting bugs in the SCons builds became quite a difficult task and
we aren't always spotting them in time.
Meanwhile CMake became really mature building system which is available on every
platform we support and arguably it's also easier and more robust to use.
This commit includes:
- Removal of actual SCons building system
- Removal of SCons git submodule
- Removal of documentation which is stored in the sources and covers SCons
- Tweaks to the buildbot master to stop using SCons submodule
(this change requires deploying to the server)
- Tweaks to the install dependencies script to skip installing or mentioning
SCons building system
- Tweaks to various helper scripts to avoid mention of SCons folders/files
as well

We have callbacks for that, they also do some checks and help ensure things are done
correctly. Only place where this is assumed not true is blenloader (since here we
may affect refcount of library IDs as well...).
The reported crash was confirmed as a segmentation fault in std::sort().
The cause of the crash was traced down to a binary comparison function
that was not satisfying the so-called strict weak ordering requirements of
the C++ standard sorting function. Specifically, the comparison operator
has to return false when two objects are equivalent (i.e., comp(a, a) must
be false), but that requirement was not met.
Since the binary comparison operator in question could be a user-defined
Python function, here a safety measure is implemented in the C++ layer to
make sure the aforementioned requirement is always satisfied.
Several class member variables were removed (at the cost of computing their values
when retrieved) or changed to a type of smaller size. Also fixed whitespace.
