This is really similar to what GPU module was already doing. There are number of
possible improvements still:
- Re-use allocated VAOs when requesting new ones instead of going to the trouble
of freeing VAO and then re-creating it again.
- Move VAO handling to GPU module.
Fixes T46589: OpenSubdiv crash with drivers
Issue was caused by blender internal accessing data from DNA during rendering.
There's no simple solution to make stuff thread safe, so for now simply restart
rendering on frame update.
- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
This commit contains all the remained parts needed for initial integration of
OpenSubdiv into Blender's subdivision surface code. Includes both GPU and CPU
backends which works in the following way:
- When SubSurf modifier is the last in the modifiers stack then GPU pipeline
of OpenSubdiv is used, making viewport performance as fast as possible.
This also requires graphscard with GLSL 1.5 support. If this requirement is
not met, then no GPU pipeline is used at all.
- If SubSurf is not a last modifier or if DerivesMesh is being evaluated for
rendering then CPU limit evaluation API from OpenSubdiv is used. This only
replaces the legacy evaluation code from CCGSubSurf_legacy, but keeps CCG
structures exactly the same as they used to be for ages now.
This integration is fully covered with ifdef and not enabled by default
because there are several TODOs to be solved first:
- Face varying data interpolation is not really cleanly implemented for GPU
in OpenSubdiv 3.0. It is also not implemented for limit evaluation API.
This basically means we'll have really hard time supporting UVs.
- Limit evaluation only works with adaptivly subdivided meshes so far, which
basically means all the points of CCG are pushed to the limit. This gives
different result from old code.
- There are some serious optimizations possible on the topology refiner
creation, which would speed up initial OpenSubdiv mesh creation.
- There are some hardcoded asumptions in the GPU and DerivedMesh areas which
could be generalized.
That's something where Antony and Campbell can help, making it so the code
is structured in a way which is reusable by all planned viewport projects.
- There are also some workarounds in the dependency graph to make sure OpenGL
buffers are only freed from the main thread.
Those who'll be wanting to make experiments with this code should grab dev
branch (NOT master) from

There are some patches applied in there which we're working on on getting
into upstream.
This commit mainly:
* Exposes PreviewImage struct in RNA, including ways for user to set images data.
* Adds a new kind of PreviewImage, using a file path and IMB_thumb to get image.
* Adds a new kind of custom icon using PreviewImage, unrelated to ID previews system.
* Adds a python API (utils.previews) to allow python scripts to access those custom previews/icons.
Note that loading image from files' thumbnails is done when needed (deferred loading), not
when defining the custom preview/icon.
WARNING: for release addons who would want to use this, please keep it to a strict minimum, really needed level.
We do not want our UI to explode under hundreds of different flashy icons!

Assumed the `reference` pointer is an ID, currently true, but may not always be.
Add a callback specifically for this purpose since cleaning up notifiers and space-types are different operations.
Speedup is non-linear, 2x-10x faster is quite normal.
Patch T43678.
- Switched from an Octree to BVH.
- Finding first points of surface no longer "wastes" density function evaluation: every result is cached.
- Use MemArena instead of using own memory management.
- Correct calculation of metaelem bounding box.
- Remove mball_count(): mballs are now counted "on the go".
This reverts commit fbc2909cef.
The reason for revert is that the commit made it so bpy.data is not set to any
of the new main (on both file open and file link/append) which basically totally
broke versioning code.
Needs some smarter solution there.
This way addons and render engines which needs to do versioning code on files will properly
do it when something is being linked or appended to the scene. Previously that callback was
only called for the local main only, making it impossible to do tweaks on linking.
Initially it was moved to allow setting keymaps of python defined menus
in C but looks like it breaks macro definition in python.
Thanks to Julian for tracking this down. It should fix T42485
Organize Maximize/Fullscreen mess and add a new fullscreen mode with no UI
* Maximize Editor: (old Ctrl+Up)
* Full Screen Window: (old Alt + F11)
* Full Screen Editor: new operator (Alt + F10)
* Change Show/Hide Header: (Alt + F9)
When the mode is on moving the mouse near the top right corner of the
editor shows an icon to go back to the normal editor mode.
This was originally intended for the multiview branch, but this
functionality also benefits non-stereo workflows, thus it can be
reviewed and committed independently.
Development notes:
* This includes cleanups in the code to sanitize the naming of
fullscreen/maximize across the window/editor code.
* Originally the idea was to make the window fullscreen as well, but
this idea was dropped.
* You can see the clicking area when debug is 1
* Technically the user can be left with an unfaded icon in the corner
(specially when using a tablet). If we think this is too bad we can
increase the action zone to be the whole screen, or something similar.

quit.blend.
This will use a slower file write if an object is in edit or sculpt
mode.
Autosaving will explicitly not be supported to keep it fast.
Added a tooltip warning.
The issue was caused by the changed defaults from the Cycles side.
Because of those properties being saved as an IDProp and not being
saved to the file, every change to the defaults would ruin someone's
day updating the values.
Added a bpy.app.handler.version_update which is run after the regular
do_versions() are done and could be sued by the scripts to apply
versioning code on their settings.

This commit merges the code in the pie-menu branch.
As per decisions taken the last few days, there are no pie menus
included and there will be an official add-on including overrides of
some keys with pie menus. However, people will now be able to use the
new code in python.
Full Documentation is in http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/
Thanks:
Campbell Barton, Dalai Felinto and Ton Roosendaal for the code review
and design comments
Jonathan Williamson, Pawel Lyczkowski, Pablo Vazquez among others for
suggestions during the development.
Special Thanks to Sean Olson, for his support, suggestions, testing and
merciless bugging so that I would finish the pie menu code. Without him
we wouldn't be here. Also to the rest of the developers of the original
python add-on, Patrick Moore and Dan Eicher and finally to Matt Ebb, who
did the research and first implementation and whose code I used to get
started.
Current temporary data of Blender suffers one major issue - default 'temp' dir on Windows is never
automatically cleaned up, and can end being quite big when used by Blender, especially when we have
to store per-process data (using getpid() in file names).
To address this, this patch:
* Divides tempdir paths in two, one for 'base' temp dir (the same as previous unique tempdir path),
the other is a mkdtemp-generated sub-dir, specific to each Blender instance.
* Only uses base tempdir when we need some shallow persistance accross Blender sessions - and we always
reuse the same filename (quit.blend...) or generate small file (crash reports...).
* Uses temp sub-dir for heavy files like pointcache or renderEXRs (Save Buffer option).
* Erases temp sub-dir on quit or crash.
To get this working it also adds a working 'recursive delete' to BLI_delete() under Windows.
Note that, as in current code, the 'recover render result' hack-feature that was possible
with SaveBuffer option is still removed. A real renderresult cache feature will be added
soon, though.

So now it's possible to copy-paste splines between layers.
Implementation is pretty much straightforward and duplicates
some logic which we've got in sequencer/tracking clipboards.
Will work on a common routine for clipboards later, for now
it's not so much crucial to have.
This attribute allows to open a blend file as an alternative
start-up file. The attribute is only available from python.
This is an example call:
bpy.ops.wm.read_homefile(filepath='path/to/a/file.blend')
This patch also changes readfile.c to ensure that unintentionally
stored cursor states are not imported from the loaded file.
