No functional change, this adds LIB definition and args to cmake files.
Without this it's difficult to migrate away from 'BLENDER_SORTED_LIBS'
since there are many platforms/configurations that could break when
changing linking order.
Manually add and enable WITHOUT_SORTED_LIBS to try building
without sorted libs (currently fails since all variables are empty).
This check will eventually be removed.
See T46725.
This patch adds a new matte node that implements the Cryptomatte specification.
It also incluces a custom eye dropper that works outside of a color picker.
Cryptomatte export for the Cycles render engine will be in a separate patch.

User notes
----------
Compositing, rendering of multi-layers in Eevee should be fully working now.
Development notes
-----------------
Up until now we were still using the same depsgraph for rendering and viewport
evaluation. And we had to go out of our ways to be sure the depsgraphs were
updated.
Now we iterate over the (to be rendered) view layers and create a depsgraph to
each one, fully evaluated and call the render engines (Cycles, Eevee, ...) with
this viewlayer/depsgraph/evaluation context.
At this time we are not handling data persistency, Depsgraph is created from
scratch prior to rendering each frame. So I got rid of most of the partial
update calls we had during the render pipeline.
Cycles: Brecht Van Lommel did a patch to tackle some of the required Cycles
changes but this commit mark these changes as TODOs. Basically Cycles needs to
render one layer at a time.

Previously, every RenderPass would have a bitfield that specified its type. That limits the number of passes to 32, which was reached a while ago.
However, most of the code already supported arbitrary RenderPasses since they were also used to store Multilayer EXR images.
Therefore, this commit completely removes the passflag from RenderPass and changes all code to use the unique pass name for identification.
Since Blender Internal relies on hardcoded passes and to preserve compatibility, 32 pass names are reserved for the old hardcoded passes.
To support these arbitrary passes, the Render Result compositor node now adds dynamic sockets. For compatibility, the old hardcoded sockets are always stored and just hidden when the corresponding pass isn't available.
To use these changes, the Render Engine API now includes a function that allows render engines to add arbitrary passes to the render result. To be able to add options for these passes, addons can now add their own properties to SceneRenderLayers.
To keep the compositor input node updated, render engine plugins have to implement a callback that registers all the passes that will be generated.
From a user perspective, nothing should change with this commit.

Using SSE2 intrinsics when available for this kind of conversions.
It's not totally accurate, but accurate enough for the purposes where
we're using direct colorspace conversion by-passing OCIO.
Partially based on code from Cycles, partially based on other online
articles:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6475373/optimizations-for-pow-with-const-non-integer-exponent
Makes projection painting on hi-res float textures smoother.
This commit also enables global SSE2 in Blender. It shouldn't
bring any regressions in supported hardware (we require SSE2 since
2.64 now), but should keep an eye on because compilers might have
some bugs with that (unlikely, but possible).
Seems i was the only one who was really up to using it and
i do have gcc-5 finally backported and installed here so
such a fine-tune flags are no longer needed.
The issue was caused by some functions in compositor returning
garbage values. Partially the issue was caused by vc12_xp toolset
we're using, but even with regular vc120 toolset nodes like bokeh
image did not work correct.
This is a bit weird solution, which could indicate some sort
of compiler bug, but is also actually makes sense because we do
use SSE intrinsics in the compositor now. Maybe it all gets
interfered in some way.
In any case, if someone wants to find a real solution for the
issue please go ahead.
This shouldn't have affect on supported platform because we
already demand CPU to have SSE2 support.
Currently only works correct with single float output, RGBA and vector are not
supported so if one need to use this passes he'll need to wait a bit still.
It is coming, don't worry.
It is rather annoying attitude nowadays to use const qualifier all over the
place, including using it for multi-dimensional arrays. This isn't really
supported in GCC prior to version 5.0 because it considers such an arrays
to be a "pointer to a const pointer" which gives implicit casting errors.
It's not possible to disable this particular type of warnings treated as
errors in any GCC version prior to 5.0 as well, meaning currently usage of
-Werror globally in Blender code is not possible at all.
This commit makes it possible to use -Werror in areas which are complaint
with older GCC versions. New advanced CMake options are:
- WITH_COMPOSITOR_WERROR
- WITH_LIBMV_WERROR
- WITH_CYCLES_WERROR

First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)

* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

The compostor used a fixed size of 4 floats to hold pixel data. this
patch will select size of a pixel based on its type.
It uses 1 float for Value, 3 float for vector and 4 floats for color
data types.
When benchmarking on shots (opening shot of caminandes) we get a
reduction of memory of 30% and a tiny speedup as less data
transformations needs to take place (but these are negligable.

Thanks for Sergey for his indept review.
For now it was mainly about OpenCL wrangler being duplicated
between Cycles and Compositor, but with OpenSubdiv work those
wranglers were gonna to be duplicated just once again.
This commit makes it so Cycles and Compositor uses wranglers
from this repositories:
- https://github.com/CudaWrangler/cuew
- https://github.com/OpenCLWrangler/clew
This repositories are based on the wranglers we used before
and they'll be likely continued maintaining by us plus some
more players in the market.
Pretty much straightforward change with some tricks in the
CMake/SCons to make this libs being passed to the linker
after all other libraries in order to make OpenSubdiv linked
against those wranglers in the future.
For those who're worrying about Cycles being less standalone,
it's not truth, it's rather more flexible now and in the future
different wranglers might be used in Cycles. For now it'll
just mean those libs would need to be put into Cycles repository
together with some other libs from Blender such as mikkspace.
This is mainly platform maintenance commit, should not be any
changes to the user space.

This allows adding a "fake" sun beam effect, simulating crepuscular rays
from light being scattered in a medium like the atmosphere or deep water.
Such effects can be created also by renderers using volumetric lighting,
but the compositor feature is a lot cheaper and is independent from 3D
rendering. This makes it ideally suited for motion graphics.
The implementation uses am optimized accumulation method for gathering
color values along a line segment. The inner buffer loop uses fixed
offset increments to avoid unnecessary multiplications and avoids
variables by using compile-time specialization (see inline comments
for further details).
Many parts of the compositor are unnecessarily complicated. This patch
aims at reducing the complexity of writing nodes and making the code
more transparent.
== Separating Nodes and Operations ==
Currently these are both mixed in the same graph, even though they have
very different purposes and are used at distinct stages in the
compositing process. The patch introduces dedicated graph classes for
nodes and for operations.
This removes the need for a lot of special case checks (isOperation etc.)
and explicit type casts. It simplifies the code since it becomes clear
at every stage what type of node we are dealing with. The compiler can
use static typing to avoid common bugs from mixing up these types and
fewer runtime sanity checks are needed.
== Simplified Node Conversion ==
Converting nodes to operations was previously based on "relinking", i.e.
nodes would start with by mirroring links in the Blender DNA node trees,
then add operations and redirect these links to them. This was very hard
to follow in many cases and required a lot of attention to avoid invalid
states.
Now there is a helper class called the NodeConverter, which is passed to
nodes and implements a much simpler API for this process. Nodes can add
operations and explicit connections as before, but defining "external"
links to the inputs/outputs of the original node now uses mapping
instead of directly modifying link data. Input data (node graph) and
result (operations graph) are cleanly separated.
== Removed Redundant Data Structures ==
A few redundant data structures have been removed, notably the
SocketConnection. These are only needed temporarily during graph
construction. For executing the compositor operations it is perfectly
sufficient to store only the direct input link pointers. A common
pointer indirection is avoided this way (which might also give a little
performance improvement).
== Avoid virtual recursive functions ==
Recursive virtual functions are evil. They are very hard to follow
during debugging. At least in the parts this patch is concerned with
these functions have been replaced by a non-virtual recursive core
function (which might then call virtual non-recursive functions if
needed). See for example NodeOperationBuilder::group_operations.
This was suggested by Christopher Barrett (terrachild). Corner pin is a common feature in compositing.
The corners for the plane warping can be defined by using vector node inputs to allow using perspective plane transformations without having to go via the MovieClip editor tracking data.
Uses the same math as the PlaneTrack node, but without the link to MovieClip and Object.
{F78199}
The code for PlaneTrack operations has been restructured a bit to share it with the CornerPin node.
* PlaneDistortCommonOperation.h/.cpp: Shared generic code for warping images based on 4 plane corners and a perspective matrix generated from these. Contains operation base classes for both the WarpImage and Mask operations.
* PlaneTrackOperation.h/.cpp: Current plane track node operations, based on the common code above. These add pointers to MovieClip and Object which define the track data from wich to read the corners.
* PlaneCornerPinOperation.h/.cpp: New corner pin variant, using explicit input sockets for the plane corners.
One downside of the current compositor design is that there is no concept of invariables (constants) that don't vary over the image space. This has already been an issue for Blur nodes (size input is usually constant except when "variable size" is enabled) and a few others. For the corner pin node it is necessary that the corner input sockets are also invariant. They have to be evaluated for each tile now, otherwise the data is not available. This in turn makes it necessary to make the operation "complex" and request full input buffers, which adds unnecessary overhead.
Debug code for graphviz output moved to a dedicated file COM_Debug.h/cpp.
The DebugInfo class has only static functions, which are called from a number of places to keep track of what is happening in the compositor. If debugging is disabled these are just inline stubs, so we
don't need #ifdefs everywhere and don't get any overhead.
The graphviz output is much more useful now. DebugInfo keeps track of node names in a static string map for meaningful names. It uses a number of colors for various special operation classes.
ExecutionGroups are indicated in graphviz with clusters.
Currently the graphviz .dot files are stored in the BLI_temporary_dir() folder. A separate dot file is generated for each stage of the ExecutionGroup scheduling, this is intended to give some idea of the
compositor progress, but could still be improved.
This merges all mix operations into a COM_MixBaseOperation
(naming could be better, but this way it corresponds to what's
going on with math operations.
Same was done with RenderLayers operations.
Overall this gives 20% of bf_compositor library compilation
time decrease. And it was rather annoying to have tens of
files with just a single-line constructors anyway.
TODO:
- All Convert operations could also be merged into a single file,
but that would require adding some ConvertBaseOperation to
reduce code duplication (ideally). Leaving it unchanged for now.
- Some operations' headers seems to be wrongly including MixOperation
header, they need to include NodeOperation instead it seems.
This is rather harmless, but would be nice to doublecheck on this
eventually.
This commit includes all the changes made for plane tracker
in tomato branch.
Movie clip editor changes:
- Artist might create a plane track out of multiple point
tracks which belongs to the same track (minimum amount of
point tracks is 4, maximum is not actually limited).
When new plane track is added, it's getting "tracked"
across all point tracks, which makes it stick to the same
plane point tracks belong to.
- After plane track was added, it need to be manually adjusted
in a way it covers feature one might to mask/replace.
General transform tools (G, R, S) or sliding corners with
a mouse could be sued for this. Plane corner which
corresponds to left bottom image corner has got X/Y axis
on it (red is for X axis, green for Y).
- Re-adjusting plane corners makes plane to be "re-tracked"
for the frames sequence between current frame and next
and previous keyframes.
- Kayframes might be removed from the plane, using Shit-X
(Marker Delete) operator. However, currently manual
re-adjustment or "re-track" trigger is needed.
Compositor changes:
- Added new node called Plane Track Deform.
- User selects which plane track to use (for this he need
to select movie clip datablock, object and track names).
- Node gets an image input, which need to be warped into
the plane.
- Node outputs:
* Input image warped into the plane.
* Plane, rasterized to a mask.
Masking changes:
- Mask points might be parented to a plane track, which
makes this point deforming in a way as if it belongs
to the tracked plane.

This is mine and Keir's holiday code project :)
- fix thumbnail preview (previously it showed only one input)
- make SplitViewer node update even if the second input is not connected
- now it works when the first socket is connected to a zero-sized node tree (e. g. Color Input node)
- SplitViewer node is now based on 2 operations: SplitOperation and ViewerOperation.
- ViewerBaseOperation was removed as a redundant one. Any future viewer style node can use the same principle and prepare the output before passing to an actual ViewerOperation.

This makes it possible to create pixelized scale in the Tile compositor.
Just append the node in front of a scale node or where you want the pixelization to take place.
There were some bugs on this subject, but they used the work around to add a blur size of 0 in the place where they need the pixelization.
