Initial work by Clément Foucault with contributions from Dalai Felinto
(mainly per-collection engine settings logic, and depsgraph iterator placeholder).
This makes Blender require OpenGL 3.3. Which means Intel graphic card
and OSX will break. Disable CLAY_ENGINE in CMake in those cases.
This is a prototype render engine intended to help the design of real
render engines. This is mainly an engine with enphasis in matcap and
ambient occlusion.
Implemented Features
--------------------
* Clay Render Engine, following the new API, to be used as reference for
future engines
* A more complete Matcap customization with more options
* Per-Collection render engine settings
* New Ground Truth AO - not enabled
Missing Features
----------------
* Finish object edit mode
- Fix shaders to use new matrix
- Fix artifacts when edge does off screen
- Fix depth issue
- Selection sillhouette
- Mesh wires
- Use mesh normals (for higher quality matcap)
- Non-Mesh objects drawing
- Widget drawing
- Performance issues
* Finish mesh edit mode
- Derived-Mesh-less edit mode API (mesh_rende.c)
* General edit mode
- Per-collection edit mode settings
* General engines
- Per-collection engine settings
(they are their, but they still need to be flushed by depsgraph, and
used by the drawing code)

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.

Tricky issue caused by CDDM_copy() coying MFACE array but not MTFACE which
confused logic later on.
Now we don't copy ANY tessellation unless it is requested to.
Thanks Bastien for help and review!
Better to have clear way to tell whether flag is parameter for
BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(), parameter for its callback function, or
return value from this callback function.
The previous solution took arbitrary values to determine if the mouse was near or not to the Bound Box (it simply scaled the Bound Box).
Now the same function that detected the distance from the BVHTree nodes to the mouse is used in the Bound Box
Use new Main->relations ID usages mapping in BKE_library_make_local().
This allows a noticeable simplification in code, and can be up to twice
quicker as previous code (Make Local: All from 2 to 1 minute e.g. in a
huge production file with thousands of linked data-blocks).
Note that new code has been successfuly tested with several complex cases
(production files from Agent327), as well as some testcases from recent
bug reports related to that function. But as always, nothing beats real
usage by real users, so please check this before we release 2.79. ;)
Main areas that would be affected: Make Local operations (L shortcut in
3DView), and append from libraries.
Use Main->relations in BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(), when possible
(i.e. IDWALK_READONLY is set), and if the data is available of course.
This is quite minor optimization, no sensible improvements are expected,
but does not hurt either to avoid potentially tens of looping over e.g.
objects constraints and modifiers, or heap of drivers...
The new MainIDRelations stores two mappings, one from ID users to ID
used, the other vice-versa.
That data is assumed to be short-living runtime, code creating it is
responsible to clear it asap. It will be much useful in places where we
handle relations between IDs for a lot of them at once.
Note: This commit is not fully functional, that is, the infamous, ugly,
PoS non-ID nodetrees will not be handled correctly when building relations.
Fix needed here is a bit noisy, so will be done in next own commit.
Note: when in edit mode this depsgraph update is not being called. We are using DerivedMesh in those cases, so it is fine. I would like to investigate this though
The freestyle data was never freed when removing a renderlayer.
```
blender -b --factory-startup --debug-memory --python-expr "import bpy;bpy.ops.scene.render_layer_add();bpy.context.scene.render.layers.active_index=0;bpy.ops.scene.render_layer_remove()"
```
This includes a few fixes in the MBC_ api.
The idea here is for this to be the only interface the render engines
will deal with for the meshes.
If we need to expose special options for sculpting engine we refactor
this accordingly. But for now we are shaping this in a per-case base.
Note:
* We still need to hook up to the depsgraph to force clear/update of
batch_cache when mesh changes
(I'm waiting for Sergey Sharybin's depsgraph update for this though)
* Also ideally we could/should use BMesh directly instead of
DerivedMesh, but this will do for now.
Note 2:
In the end I renamed the `BKE_mesh_render` functions to `static
mesh_render`. We can re-expose them as BKE_* later once we need it.

New options to define the style of the animation paths in order to get
better visibility in complex scenes.
Now is possible define the color, thickness and several options relative
to the style of the lines used to draw motion path.
This commit introduces the ability to use the Robert Penner easing equations
or a Custom Curve to control the way that the "Interpolate Sequence" operator
interpolates between keyframes. Previously, it was only possible to get linear
interpolation between the gp frames.
Workflow:
1) Place current frame between a pair of GP keyframes
2) Open the "Interpolate" panel in the Toolshelf
3) Choose the interpolation type (under "Sequence Options")
4) Adjust settings (e.g. if you're using "Custom Curve", use the curvemap widget
to define the way that the interpolation proceeds)
5) Click "Sequence" to interpolate
6) Play back/scrub the animation to see if you've got the result you want
7) If you need to make some tweaks, undo, or delete the generated keyframes,
then repeat the process again from step 4 until you've got the desired result.
Things like `BLI_uniquename` had nothing, but really nothing to do in
BLI_path_util files!
Also, got rid of length limitation in `BLI_uniquename_cb`, we can use
alloca here to avoid overhead of malloc while keeping free size (within
reasonable limits of course).
It is quite likely in a triangulated mesh that the actual island edge
belongs to a different triangle than the current pixel; for example
consider corners of a triangulated axis aligned rectangle face that
have the additional edge: a pixel there will have to be assigned to
one of the triangles, but one of the edges of the original rectangle
can only be accessed through the other triangle.
Thus for robust operation it is necessary to do a recursive search.
The search is limited by requiring that it only goes through edges
that bring it closer to the target point, and also by depth as a
safeguard.

The code requires the pixel on the other side of the seam to be assigned
precisely to the expected triangle. This can cause false negatives around
vertices, where a pixel is likely to touch multiple triangles and thus
cannot be said to unambiguously belong to any one of them, so check
distance to the intended triangle and accept the result if it's close.
1. Forcibly symmetrize the neighbor relations, so that if A is neighbor
of B, B is neighbor of A. The existing code is guaranteed to violate
this if texture resolution is different between the sides of a seam.
2. In texture mode dynamic paint adds a 1 pixel wide border around the
islands. These pixels aren't really part of the dynamic paint domain
and thus by design can't have symmetrical neighbor relations. This
means they can't be treated by effects like normal pixels.
The simplest way to handle it in a consistent way is to exclude
them from effects, but add an additional pass that recomputes them
as average of their non-border neighbors, located on both sides of
the seam.
This splits `interp_weights_face_v3` into `interp_weights_tri_v3` and
`interp_weights_quad_v3`, in order to properly handle three sided polygons
without needing a useless extra index in your weight array. This also
improves clarity and consistency with other math_geom functions, thus
reducing potential future errors.

Other than implementing a `mid_v3_v3_array` function, this removes
`cent_tri_v3` and `cent_quad_v3` in favor of `mid_v3_v3v3v3` and
`mid_v3_v3v3v3v3` respectively.
