This was caused by curves pointing to each other
creating a cyclic dependency.
While the dependency graph detects this, generating a mesh for render
recursively generates data which cashes in this case.
Add in a check to detect cyclic links.
Note, this bug exists in 2.7x too - but only crashes on render
since 2.7x didn't use 'for_render' when converting data.
Using ID_LIGHT or ID_ID for "Lamp" meaning, "Light" without context
being for 'not heavy'.
That rename of data-block was not really nice on that side of things :/
Related to T43295.
Now collection and objects can be either:
* Disabled for all the view layers.
* Hidden for a view layer but not necessarily for all others.
* Visible for a view layer but not necessarily for all others.
Regarding icons: Whatever we decide to use for the "Hidden for all view
layers" needs to be a toggle-like icon. Because when viewing "Scenes"
instead of "View Layer" in the outliner we should be able to edit the
collection "Hidden for all the view layers" as an on/off option.
The operators are accessible via a Visibility context menu or shortcuts:
* Ctrl + Click: Isolate collection (use shift to extend).
* Alt + Click: Disable collection.
* Shift + Click: Hide/Show collection and its children (objects and collections)
Things yet to be tackled:
* Object outliner context menu can also get a Visibility sub-menu.
* Get better icons for viewport enable/disable.
Note:
* When using emulate 3 button mouse alt+click is used for 2d panning.
In this case users have to use the operator from the menu.
See T57857 for discussion.

Thanks to the reviewers and William Reynish and Julien Kasper in
particular for the feedback.
[re-committing]
We still control this in the viewport collections visibility menu. But
now we are actually changing the visibility of the collections, not of
the objects.
If a collection is indirectly invisible (because one of its parents are
invisible) we gray it out.
Also if you click directly in the collection names, it "isolates" the
collection by hiding all collections, and showing the direct parents and
all the children of the selected collection.
Development Note:
Right now I'm excluding the hidden collections from the depsgraph.
Thus the need for tagging relations to update.
If this proves to be too slow, we can change.

The issue was caused by dependency graph resetting particles
when evaluating copy-on-write version of object. Solved by
only doing reset from dependency graph on user edits.
Other issue was caused by modifier itself trying to compare
topology and reset particles when number of vertices or faces
changed. This isn't reliable, since topology might change even
with same number of elements. But also, since copy-on-written
object initially always have those fields zero-ed the reset
was happening on every F12.
The latter issue is solved by moving reset from modifier stack
to places where we exit edit/paint modes which might be changing
topology.
There is still weird issue of particles generated at some
weird location after tapping tab twice, but this is not a new
issue in 2.8 branch and is to be looked separately.
This removes a bunch of animation/driver evaluations and recalc flags that
should be redundant in the new depsgraph, and were incorrectly affecting
the evaluated scene in a permanent way.
Still two cases that could be removed if the depsgraph is improved, in
BKE_object_handle_data_update and BKE_cachefile_update_frame.
For physics subframe interpolation there are also still calls to
BKE_object_where_is_calc that should ideally be removed as well, though
they are not known to cause keyframing bugs.

Some features are incompatible with multithreading and reliable evaluation
of dependencies. We are now removing them as part of a bigger cleanup to
fix bugs in keyframing and invalid animation evaluations.
* Dupliframes have been removed. This was a hack added before there were
more powerful features like the array modifier.
* Slow parent has been removed, never worked in 2.8. It was always
unreliable for use in production due to depending on whatever frame was
previously evaluated, which was not always the previous frame.
* Particle instanced objects used to have their transform evaluated at
the particle time. Now it always gets the current time transform.
* Boids can no longer do predictive avoidance of force field objects,
but still for other particles.

There are probably many more cases in which the menu looks a little different.
However, I don't know them all and it's too easy to break something accidentally here.
Maybe a user could try the different combinations of object types and check if there are entries that should not be there.
