The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

While getting rid of Scene->base we got the following fixes:
* Fix "Convert To" operator
* Fix "NLA allowing to selected objects that are not selectable
* Fix scene.objects (readonly, no option to link/unlink)
Note: Collada needs to use the context SceneLayer for adding objects
however I added a placeholder, so Collada maintainers can fix this
properly.
Iterate over invisible objects too, so lamps can still lit the scene.
Also, now you can use a collection to set an object to invisible, not
only to visible.
For example:
Scene > Master collection > bedroom > furniture
Scene > View Layer > bedroom (visible)
> furniture (invisible)
The View Layer has two linked collections, bedroom and furniture.
This setup will make the furniture collection invisible.
Note: Unlike what was suggested on D2849, this does not make collection
visibility influence camera visibility. I will keep this as a separate
patch.

Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
This avoids the unnecessary creation of bvhtree, which can be highly inefficient in some cases
(for example: in the `operator_modal_view3d_raycast.py` template)

User Commit Log
---------------
* New Layer and Collection system to replace render layers and viewport layers.
* A layer is a set of collections of objects (and their drawing options) required for specific tasks.
* A collection is a set of objects, equivalent of the old layers in Blender. A collection can be shared across multiple layers.
* All Scenes have a master collection that all other collections are children of.
* New collection "context" tab (in Properties Editor)
* New temporary viewport "collections" panel to control per-collection
visibility
Missing User Features
---------------------
* Collection "Filter"
Option to add objects based on their names
* Collection Manager operators
The existing buttons are placeholders
* Collection Manager drawing
The editor main region is empty
* Collection Override
* Per-Collection engine settings
This will come as a separate commit, as part of the clay-engine branch
Dev Commit Log
--------------
* New DNA file (DNA_layer_types.h) with the new structs
We are replacing Base by a new extended Base while keeping it backward
compatible with some legacy settings (i.e., lay, flag_legacy).
Renamed all Base to BaseLegacy to make it clear the areas of code that
still need to be converted
Note: manual changes were required on - deg_builder_nodes.h, rna_object.c, KX_Light.cpp
* Unittesting for main syncronization requirements
- read, write, add/copy/remove objects, copy scene, collection
link/unlinking, context)
* New Editor: Collection Manager
Based on patch by Julian Eisel
This is extracted from the layer-manager branch. With the following changes:
- Renamed references of layer manager to collections manager
- I doesn't include the editors/space_collections/ draw and util files
- The drawing code itself will be implemented separately by Julian
* Base / Object:
A little note about them. Original Blender code would try to keep them
in sync through the code, juggling flags back and forth. This will now
be handled by Depsgraph, keeping Object and Bases more separated
throughout the non-rendering code.
Scene.base is being cleared in doversion, and the old viewport drawing
code was poorly converted to use the new bases while the new viewport
code doesn't get merged and replace the old one.

This reverts commit 5aa19be912 and b4a721af69.
Due to postponement of particle system rewrite it was decided to put particle code
back into the 2.8 branch for the time being.
This gives us 9 flags available again for properties (we had none anymore),
and also makes things slightly cleaner.
To simplify (and make more clear the differences between mere properties
and function parameters), also added RNA_def_parameter_flags function (and
its clear counterpart), to be used instead of RNA_def_property_flag for
function parameters.
This patch is also a big cleanup (some RNA function definitions were
still using 'prop' PropertyRNA pointer, etc.).
And yes, am aware this will be annoying for all branches, but we really need
to get new flags available for properties (will need at least one for override, etc.).

We cannot use FLT_MAX as initi distance for raycast...
Renamed TRANSFORM_DIST_MAX_RAY to BVH_RAYCAST_DIST_MAX, moved it into BLI_kdopbvh,
and use in RNA raycast callbacks (and all other places using that API).
It also fixes another issue (crash) related to symmetric editing.
Quite involved, we (try to!) fix complete broken logic of parts of particle code, which would use poly index
as tessface one (or vice-versa). Issue most probably goes back to BMesh integration time...
This patch mostly fixes particle editing mode:
- Adding/removing particles when using generative modifiers (like subsurf) should now work.
- Adding/removing particles with a non-tessellated mesh (i.e. one having ngons) should also mostly work.
- X-axis-mirror-editing particles over ngons does not really work, not sure why currently.
- All this in both 'modes' (with or without using modifier stack for particles).
Tech side:
- Store a deformed-only DM in particle modifier data.
- Rename existing DM to make it clear it's a final one.
- Use deformed-only DM's tessface2poly mapping to 'solve' poly/tessface mismatches.
- Make (part of) mirror-editing code able to use a DM instead of raw mesh, so that we can mirror based on final DM
when editing particles using modifier stack (mandatory, since there is no way currently to find orig tessface
from an final DM tessface index).
Note that this patch is not really nice and clean (current particles are beyond hope on this side anyway),
it's more like some urgency bandage. Whole crap needs complete rewrite anyway,
BMesh's polygons make it really hard to work with current system (and looptri would not help much here).
Also, did not test everything possibly affected by those changes, so it needs some users' testing & validation too.

- It wasn't possible to know when Object.ray_cast was successful
in the case when it hit a face with no original index.
- Take (ray_start, ray_direction) vectors.
- Take an optional distance argument.
- Scene/Object.ray_cast now use matching arguments & return values.

This commit integrates the work done so far on the new dependency graph system,
where goal was to replace legacy depsgraph with the new one, supporting loads of
neat features like:
- More granular dependency relation nature, which solves issues with fake cycles
in the dependencies.
- Move towards all-animatable, by better integration of drivers into the system.
- Lay down some basis for upcoming copy-on-write, overrides and so on.
The new system is living side-by-side with the previous one and disabled by
default, so nothing will become suddenly broken. The way to enable new depsgraph
is to pass `--new-depsgraph` command line argument.
It's a bit early to consider the system production-ready, there are some TODOs
and issues were discovered during the merge period, they'll be addressed ASAP.
But it's important to merge, because it's the only way to attract artists to
really start testing this system.
There are number of assorted documents related on the design of the new system:
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Aligorith/GSoC2013_Depsgraph#Design_Documents
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/DependencyGraph
There are also some user-related information online:
* http://code.blender.org/2015/02/blender-dependency-graph-branch-for-users/
* http://code.blender.org/2015/03/more-dependency-graph-tricks/
Kudos to everyone who was involved into the project:
- Joshua "Aligorith" Leung -- design specification, initial code
- Lukas "lukas_t" Toenne -- integrating code into blender, with further fixes
- Sergey "Sergey" "Sharybin" -- some mocking around, trying to wrap up the
project and so
- Bassam "slikdigit" Kurdali -- stressing the new system, reporting all the
issues and recording/writing documentation.
- Everyone else who i forgot to mention here :)
Issue this commit is addressed to is that particle system and particle modifier
will contain caches once derived mesh was requested and this cached data will
never be freed.
This could easily lead to unwanted memory peaks during synchronization stage
of rendering.
The idea is to have RNA function in object which would free caches which can't
be freed otherwise. This function is not intended to deal with derived final
since it might be used by other objects (for example by object with boolean
modifier).
This cache freeing is only happening in the background rendering and locked
interface rendering.
From quick tests with victor file this change reduces peak memory usage by
command line rendering by around 6% (1780MB vs. 1883MB). For rendering from
the interface it's about 12% (1763MB vs. 1998MB).

Own fault in rBb154aa8c060a60d to fix T42447... Reverted that commit, and added
kind of not-so-nice hack instead.
Note root of the issue comes from the special case we are doing here re 'Local'
space of parent-less objects. In that case, local space should be the same as
world one, but instead we apply the object rotation to it... This is inconsistent
with all other cases and could very well lead to other issues as T42447, but afraid
fixing that properly would be rather hairy - not to mention it would likely break
all existing riggings etc. :(
Should be safe for a 2.73a, shall we need it.
This changes BKE's fitting code to use `BKE_camera_params_compute_viewplane` instead of
`BKE_camera_view_frame`. This allows that code to work with orthographic projection too.
Also, two funcs were added to rna's Object, to resp. get the projection matrix of that
object (mostly useful for cameras and lamps objects), and return position this object
should be to see all (to fit) a given set of points.

Fix T39286: Display percentage ignored in Cycles viewport.
The threaded depsgraph update changes included a cleanup of the global
is_rendering flag, which was replaced by a general EvalContext being
passed to dupli functions.
Problem is that the global flag was true for viewport duplis before
(ugly hack), which was used as a check for generating dupli orco/UV from
mesh data layers. The new flag is stricter and only true for actual
renders, which disables these attributes and breaks the Cycles
Texture Coordinates and UVMap nodes.
The solution is to extend the simple for_render boolean to an enum:
* VIEWPORT: OpenGL viewport drawing (dupli tex coords omitted)
* PREVIEW: Viewport preview render (simplified modifiers)
* RENDER: Full render with all details and attributes
There are still some areas that need to be examined, in particular
modifiers seem to totally ignore the EvaluationContext!
Instead they generally execute without render params from the depsgraph
(BKE_object_handle_update_ex) and are built with render settings
explicitly.
