This adds the LineArt grease pencil modifier.
It takes objects or collections as input and generates various grease
pencil lines from these objects with the help of the active scene
camera. For example it can generate contour lines, intersection lines
and crease lines to name a few.
This is really useful as artists can then use 3D meshes to automatically
generate grease pencil lines for characters, enviroments or other
visualization purposes.
These lines can then be baked and edited as regular grease pencil lines.

When dropping an asset somewhere, it is appended and then a drop operation is
called to actually add it to the scene based on current context. If this drop
operation fails, the appended data-block is now still in the .blend. The user
may not notice and not expect this.
Instead idea is to rollback any changes done by dropping code if the operation
fails, namely removing the appended data-block again.
Adds a new `cancel()` callback which is called if the drop operator returns
`OPERATOR_CANCELLED` to drop-boxes and a generic function to deal with assets
on drop failure.
Also removes the `free_id_on_error` property of the `NODE_OT_add_group`
operator, which was used as ad-hoc solution to get this same behavior.
- Return success from WM_recover_last_session
- Avoid setting global variables is already called in WM_file_read.
While it didn't cause any problems, these assignments ran even when
recovering the session failed to load the file.
- Return OPERATOR_CANCELLED when the operator fails.
Returning success is needed to fix T85011.
For the Asset Browser, it needs to be possible to drag assets into various
editors, which may not come from the current .blend file. In other words, the
dragging needs to work with just the asset metadata, without direct access to
the data-block itself.
Idea is simple: When dragging an asset, store the source file-path and
data-block name and when dropping, append the data-block. It uses existing drop
operators, but the function to get the dropped data-block is replaced with one
that returns the local data-block, or, in case of an external asset, appends
the data-block first.
The drop operators need to be adjusted to use this new function that respects
assets. With this patch it only works for dragging assets into the 3D view.
Note that I expect this to be a short-lived change. A refactor like D4071 is
needed to make the drag & drop system more future proof for assets and other
use cases.

This patch adds support for AOVs in EEVEE. AOV Outputs can be defined in the
render pass tab and used in shader materials. Both Object and World based
shaders are supported. The AOV can be previewed in the viewport using the
renderpass selector in the shading popover.
AOV names that conflict with other AOVs are automatically corrected. AOV
conflicts with render passes get a warning icon. The reason behind this is that
changing render engines/passes can change the conflict, but you might not notice
it. Changing this automatically would also make the materials incorrect, so best
to leave this to the user.
**Implementation**
The patch adds a copies the AOV structures of Cycles into Blender. The goal is
that the Cycles will use Blenders AOV defintions. In the Blender kernel
(`layer.c`) the logic of these structures are implemented.
The GLSL shader of any GPUMaterial can hold multiple outputs (the main output
and the AOV outputs) based on the renderPassUBO the right output is selected.
This selection uses an hash that encodes the AOV structure. The full AOV needed
to be encoded when actually drawing the material pass as the AOV type changes
the behavior of the AOV. This isn't known yet when the GLSL is compiled.
**Future Developments**
* The AOV definitions in the render layer panel isn't shared with Cycles.
Cycles should be migrated to use the same viewlayer aovs. During a previous
attempt this failed as the AOV validation in cycles and in Blender have
implementation differences what made it crash when an aov name was invalid.
This could be fixed by extending the external render engine API.
* Add support to Cycles to render AOVs in the 3d viewport.
* Use a drop down list for selecting AOVs in the AOV Output node.
* Give user feedback when multiple AOV output nodes with the same AOV name
exists in the same shader.
* Fix viewing single channel images in the image editor [T83314]
* Reduce viewport render time by only render needed draw passes. [T83316]

This caused an additional argument when exiting object modes
and many other low level functions which don't need to access context.
This simplifies fixing T77073.
The offsets are applied after toggling positional tracking off, so that
the view does not jump at that moment. But when changing the base pose,
keeping that offset doesn't make sense. Especially with landmarks, which
are supposed to give precise positions/rotations to jump to. For that
part the VR Scene Inspection Add-on will need a little adjustment
though.
Also exposes an explicit function to the Python API to reset the
offsets, to be used by the Add-on.
This is mostly untested since I don't have access to an HMD currently.
The problem comes from the fact by no data being modified when switching
viewlayers.
To follow what the external render engines do, we completely reset the
viewport by freeing the GPUViewport to avoid any cached data from being
kept.
Follow up of b2ee1770d4 and 10c2254d41, part of T74432.
Now the area and region naming conventions should be less confusing.
Mostly a careful batch rename but had to do few smaller fixes.
Also ran clang-format on affected files.
All DirectX management happens on Ghost level now, higher level code can
just assume everything is OpenGL (except of the upside-down drawing that
still needs to be done for DirectX). This is similar to how the
metal-layer is hidden outside of Ghost.
The Ghost-XR graphics binding for DirectX is responsible for managing
the DirectX compatibility now.
Stereoscopic viewport didn't support Color Manangement due recent
changes in the color management pipeline. In order to solve the issue we
will migrate the strereo rendering into the GPUViewport. This will share
some textures and reduce required GPU memory.

NOTE: While most of the milestone 1 goals are there, a few smaller features and
improvements are still to be done.
Big picture of this milestone: Initial, OpenXR-based virtual reality support
for users and foundation for advanced use cases.
Maniphest Task: https://developer.blender.org/T71347
The tasks contains more information about this milestone.
To be clear: This is not a feature rich VR implementation, it's focused on the
initial scene inspection use case. We intentionally focused on that, further
features like controller support are part of the next milestone.
- How to use?
Instructions on how to use this are here:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/How_to_Test
These will be updated and moved to a more official place (likely the manual) soon.
Currently Windows Mixed Reality and Oculus devices are usable. Valve/HTC
headsets don't support the OpenXR standard yet and hence, do not work with this
implementation.
---------------
This is the C-side implementation of the features added for initial VR
support as per milestone 1. A "VR Scene Inspection" Add-on will be
committed separately, to expose the VR functionality in the UI. It also
adds some further features for milestone 1, namely a landmarking system
(stored view locations in the VR space)
Main additions/features:
* Support for rendering viewports to an HMD, with good performance.
* Option to sync the VR view perspective with a fully interactive,
regular 3D View (VR-Mirror).
* Option to disable positional tracking. Keeps the current position (calculated
based on the VR eye center pose) when enabled while a VR session is running.
* Some regular viewport settings for the VR view
* RNA/Python-API to query and set VR session state information.
* WM-XR: Layer tying Ghost-XR to the Blender specific APIs/data
* wmSurface API: drawable, non-window container (manages Ghost-OpenGL and GPU
context)
* DNA/RNA for management of VR session settings
* `--debug-xr` and `--debug-xr-time` commandline options
* Utility batch & config file for using the Oculus runtime on Windows.
* Most VR data is runtime only. The exception is user settings which are saved
to files (`XrSessionSettings`).
* VR support can be disabled through the `WITH_XR_OPENXR` compiler flag.
