Use Shift+G > Collection. If there is only one collection, it just selects it,
if there are multiple ones user get to pick which one to select.
This is the same behaviour we have for groups. Note, we only select objects
directly in the collection, not the ones in any nested collection.

This means smaller imm buffer usage.
This does not reduce the number of drawcalls.
This uses geometry shader which is slow for the GPU but given we are really
CPU bound on this case, it should not matter.
A perfect implementation would:
- Set the glyph coord in a bufferTexture and just send the glyph ID to the
GPU to read the bufferTexture.
- Use GWN_draw_primitive and draw 2*strllen triangle and just retrieve the
glyph ID and color based on gl_VertexID / 6.
- Stream fixed size buffer that the Driver can discard quickly but this is
the same as improving IMM directly.
Fix for T54437: Sequencer preview uses last updated scene
The fix started in master, moving EvaluationContext initialization
before we leave `deg_evaluate_on_refresh()`.
Upon merging master we can fix the actual issue which was to set
the EvaluationContext depsgraph even if the depsgraph was already updated.
This is required to T54437 (sequencer preview uses last updated scene).
Although the fix itself needs to be in 2.8, for the 2.8 specific
initialization code.
Introduce a UI batch cache. For the moment it's only used by widgetbase so
leaving it interface_widgets.c. If it grows, it can have its own file.
Like all preset batches (batches used by UI context), vaos must be refreshed
each time a new window context is binded.
This still does 3 GWN_batch_draw in the worst cases but at least it does
not use the IMM api.
I will continue and batch the 3 calls together since we are really CPU
bound, so shader complexity does not really matters.
I cannot spot any difference on all the widgets I could test. I did not use
any unit tests so I cannot tell if there is really any defects.
This is not a complete rewrite but it adresses the top bottleneck found
after a profilling session.
Use more generic id->recalc flag.
Also sanitize flag flush from settings to particle system.
Need to do such flush before triggering point cache reset, since
point cache reset will do some logic based on what flags are set.
This will solve crash caused by threaded update which will set
some bitflags while point cache reset is in progress.
The way how particle state is to be accessed or used did not change
in Blender 2.8, so the drawing code should follow old design.
This code is somewhat duplicated from drawobject.c, but old draw
code is on the way to be removed anyway.
This fixes issue with disappearing particles when tweaking number
of particles.
Tagging based on components might not be granular enough.
For example, for particles we would want to know what part
of particles was changed exactly. For the flushing we wouldn't
worry too much, because we will want less granular updates
there anyway.
How to use: Select a few objects, and press "M" in the viewport.
If you hold ctrl the objects will be added to the selected collection.
Otherwise they are removed from all their original collections and moved
to the selected one instead.
Development Notes
=================
The ideal solution would be to implement an elegant generic multi-level
menu system similar to toolbox_generic() in 2.49.
Instead I used `uiItemMenuF` to acchieve the required nesting of the menus.
The downside is that `uiItemMenuF` requires the data its callback uses to be
always valid until the menu is discarded. But since there is no callback we
can call when the menu is discarded for operators that exited with
`OPERATOR_INTERFACE`.
That means we are using static allocated data, that is only freed next time
the operator is called. Which also means there will always be some
memory leakage.

When importing an xfov curve, we must transformed the data to
Lens opening angles in degrees. While the curve value itself is
correctly transformed, the transformation of the tangents has been
forgotten. this is fixed now.
Drawcall per window redraw on default layout:
- 4100+ without patch
- 1270 with patch
Theses drawcalls meant a lot of driver overhead since they each correspond
to one glMapBuffer which is slow.
- Get memory usage from MemFile instead of MEM API
avoids possible invalid when threads alloc memory.
- Use size_t instead of uint and uintptr_t to store size.
- Rename UndoElem.str -> filename
- Rename MemFileChunk.ident -> is_identical
Remain convinced that it should not be possible for undo code to run in
parallel with DEG eval... But for now, this whould prevent static
override code to dive into this collection.
