This option uses the same logic of the merge by distance but as an option of modifier to allow dynamic merge.
This option will be very useful for LANPR generated strokes.
This mode simplify the stroke doing a resampling of the points and generate new geometry at the distance defined.
Sample function developed by @NicksBest
New Resample Stroke operator
This operator recreates the stroke geometry with a predefined length between points.
The operator uses the same code used in Simplify modifier.

This commit adds the frame to deformStroke Callback as a preparation for new modifiers that will need this variable.
Actually, the existing modifiers are not using the frame.
There were several problems in the old random calculation:
* Different result in the viewport and render.
* Noise "pop" in some frames.
* Random number was calculated every time the file was opened, so get different results.
Now, instead to calculate the random numbers when n number of frames changed, the random values are calculated using a unique seed by stroke.
Also, a new Seed parameter has been added and this adds more control in the noise generated. This value can be animated and get more variations.

The value of the step was calculated using a variable that was removed when the render frame change.
Now, the step is calculated using the modulus of the current frame and recalculate noise only if the remainder that results from performing integer division is equal to 0.
To calculate current frame, the first used frame is calculated to adjust real frame range.
This approach is more stable in viewport and render.
When apply the modifier a new material is created, but it was assigned wrongly. The problem was the index was base 0 already, so subtract 1, got a wrong value.
- The ambiguous term 'handle' was used where 'ensure'
is typically used (get or add when missing).
- Rename `current` to `active`, all `current` functions which were
also ensuring.
- Clarify what is being operated on, using `BKE_gpencil_object_*` for
objects, `BKE_gpencil_brush_*` for brushes.

Thanks to @sergey for his help.
This change displays the stroke in the deformed position, but the edition is done in rest position.
This is no the final solution, but at least we have some visual feedback in edit mode.
The real solution is to create a full system to manage derived strokes in Edit mode, but this needs a lot of work and we haven't resources now to do it.
We already have different storages for cddata of verts, edges etc.,
'simply' do the same for the mask flags we use all around Blender code
to request some data, or limit some operation to some layers, etc.
Reason we need this is that some cddata types (like Normals) are
actually shared between verts/polys/loops, and we don’t want to generate
clnors everytime we request vnors!
As a side note, this also does final fix to T59338, which was the
trigger for this patch (need to request computed loop normals for
another mesh than evaluated one).

BLI should always comes first, before DNA, BKE etc. And
`BLI_utildefines.h` should come before any other BLI (since it's some
sort of system include really, among other things...).
Thisi should help to reduce the noise in patches when adding stuff
like uint64_t members to DNA structs... ;)
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
The GP_STROKE_RECALC_CACHE identifier was changed to GP_STROKE_RECALC_GEOMETRY because the previous name was confusing and could be confused with the recalculation of the Draw Manager cache.
There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.
Fixes T58632: Particle don't update rotation settings
This is part of T57829.
Reduce the number of batches used to only one by shader type. This reduces GPU overhead and increase a lot the FPS. As the number of batches is small, the time to allocate and free memory was reduced in 90% or more.
Also the code has been simplified and all batch management has been removed because this is not necessary. Now, all shading groups are created after all vertex buffer data for all strokes has been created using DRW_shgroup_call_range_add().
All batch cache data has been moved to the Object runtime struct and not as before where some parts (derived data) were saved inside GPD datablock.
For particles, now the code is faster and cleaner and gets better FPS.
Thanks to Clément Foucault for his help and advices to improve speed.
