Related to T56363, this is not fixing the root of the bug, but ID
copying should always be a good occasion to ensure sanity of our data
(and error checking is always better than a crash!).
This commit merge the full development done in greasepencil-object branch and include mainly the following features.
- 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...
Remove support for loading interlaced image sequences because
its less common now to record interlaced video,
the option to de-interlace video on load remains.
This is the same approach as 98a0bcd425
applied to soft body simulation. In short, CoW copies share the point cache,
and treat it as read-only except when the depsgraph is active.
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.
To prevent the pointcache from being copied-on-write too (and requiring
copying back), the cache is now shared between the original and
evaluated scenes. Reading from the cache is always allowed; running the
sim and writing to the cache is only allowed when the depsgraph is
active.
Some pointers have moved from RigidBodyWorld (RBO) to
RigidBodyWorldShared (RBOS). writefile.c copies some pointers back from
RBOS to RBO so that the file can still be opened on older Blenders
without crashing on a segfault.
The RigidBodyWorldShared struct is written to the blend file, because it
refers to the PointCache ID block.
The RigidObjectShared struct is runtime-only, and thus not saved to the
blend file.
An RNA getter-function is used to hide the new 'shared' pointer. As a
result the Python API hasn't changed.

Note that due to RNA get/setters issue, that one may actually add some
G.main usages to the total... But at least it's not hidden anymore in a
very low-level, dark corner of BKE pointcache code!
Make it more reliable and predictable way of getting pointer to
an original mesh which came from copy-on-write engine.
Related change: made it (hopefully) more clear name for flags.
This commit restores support for Motion Path drawing in 2.8 (as it wasn't ported over
to the new draw engines earlier, and the existing space_view3d/drawanimviz.c code was
removed during the Blender Internal removal).
Notes:
* Motion Paths are now implemented as an overlay (enabled by default).
Therefore, you can turn all of them on/off from the "Overlays" popover
* By and large, we have kept the same draw style as was used in 2.7
Further changes can happen later following further design work.
* One change from 2.7 is that thicker lines are used by default (2px vs 1px)
Todo's:
* There are some bad-level calls introduced here (i.e. the actgroup_to_keylist() stuff).
These were introduced to optimise drawing performance (by avoiding full keyframes -> keylist
conversion step on each drawcall). Instead, this has been moved to the calculation step
(in blenkernel). Soon, there will be some cleanups/improvements with those functions,
so until then, we'll keep the bad level calls.

This way we allow animation system to make decisions based on which
context dependency graph is coming from, and whether it belongs to
an active edit window or not.
