This unifies two almost-identical functions at the expense of having to
add one single 'flag' value at one call.
This makes copy_softbody() aware of the source/dest objects, allowing it
to make a distinction between doing depsgraph evaluation copies and real
object copies. This will be used in an upcoming commit to ensure that
the pointcache is shared between CoW copies, similar to the current
approach for rigidbody simulation.
To prevent the pointcache from being copied-on-write too (and requiring
copying back), the cache is now shared between the original and
evaluated scenes. Reading from the cache is always allowed; running the
sim and writing to the cache is only allowed when the depsgraph is
active.
Some pointers have moved from RigidBodyWorld (RBO) to
RigidBodyWorldShared (RBOS). writefile.c copies some pointers back from
RBOS to RBO so that the file can still be opened on older Blenders
without crashing on a segfault.
The RigidBodyWorldShared struct is written to the blend file, because it
refers to the PointCache ID block.
The RigidObjectShared struct is runtime-only, and thus not saved to the
blend file.
An RNA getter-function is used to hide the new 'shared' pointer. As a
result the Python API hasn't changed.

Note that due to RNA get/setters issue, that one may actually add some
G.main usages to the total... But at least it's not hidden anymore in a
very low-level, dark corner of BKE pointcache code!
Make it more reliable and predictable way of getting pointer to
an original mesh which came from copy-on-write engine.
Related change: made it (hopefully) more clear name for flags.
This commit restores support for Motion Path drawing in 2.8 (as it wasn't ported over
to the new draw engines earlier, and the existing space_view3d/drawanimviz.c code was
removed during the Blender Internal removal).
Notes:
* Motion Paths are now implemented as an overlay (enabled by default).
Therefore, you can turn all of them on/off from the "Overlays" popover
* By and large, we have kept the same draw style as was used in 2.7
Further changes can happen later following further design work.
* One change from 2.7 is that thicker lines are used by default (2px vs 1px)
Todo's:
* There are some bad-level calls introduced here (i.e. the actgroup_to_keylist() stuff).
These were introduced to optimise drawing performance (by avoiding full keyframes -> keylist
conversion step on each drawcall). Instead, this has been moved to the calculation step
(in blenkernel). Soon, there will be some cleanups/improvements with those functions,
so until then, we'll keep the bad level calls.

This way we allow animation system to make decisions based on which
context dependency graph is coming from, and whether it belongs to
an active edit window or not.
This is a first step to have correspondence of legacy derivedDeform
within a new formulation. Only base ground for now to support file
reading, copy-on-write remapping and such.
There is a chance parts of Blender call BKE_object_workob_calc_parent
with ob->parent objects that are outside the depsgraph.
This we can tackle later since these are corner cases anyways,
and this fix fixes all parenting operators in Blender.
The problem was that the particle system modifier was reading ob->derivedDeform
during modifier stack evaluation. Due to the mesh -> DM conversion this was no
longer set leading to wrong results.
In fact we don't really need the deformed mesh, just the original mesh topology
for face/poly index remapping. So the solution is to use that instead.
* Added BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh, which can also be used outside of
Modifier context.
* BKE_modifier_get_evaluated_mesh_from_object is now a dummy wrapper
around BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh, we do not need anything special
anymore for RENDER quality option, since this is supposed to be handled
at depsgraph level... Maybe we can get rid of it at some point, but kind
of like the idea of keeping it for now, sounds more consitent.
Fixes camera view locking, camera related transitions and movements with the active object as pivot point
Note there can still be problems if the active object is not selectable
OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.

There are a few places where DerivedMesh is still used, most notably
when calling the (not yet ported) cloth simulation. There is also still
the use of Object.derivedDeform and Object.derivedFinal. Those places are
marked with a TODO.
Some functions in the editors module were copied to accept Mesh. Those
already had 'mesh' in the name; the copies are suffixed with '__real_mesh'
for easy renaming later when the DM-based functionality is removed.
