Currently with a debug build there is a race condition where the mutex is released before the DST structure is reset to 0xFF, meaning when multiple threads are using the DRWManager it can get cleared when the main thread is using it, causing crashes.

The ClayEngine was introduced to test the blender2.8 architecture during
development. As currently we have the wanted features implemented with
matcaps we are going to remove the clay engine as it was never intended
to be an official releasable engine
Note: The test cases are never run. But when enabled will be skipped as
they were implemented over the Clay Engine
This way they can be init in their owner thread. Contexts should not be
shared accross threads. Once you make a context active on a thread it is
owned by the thread.
This commit only have the GLX backend updated but should not break orther
platform.
Note: Metaballs only support the first material slot. Splicing it per
material would create empty Batches. In order to overcome this we set
the batch for other materials to NULL. We added extra checks in EEVEE
and Workbench to not draw when the geom is NULL.
The range is 0.25 to 0.75 opacity when the Xray opacity is between 0.0 to 1.0.
This is to avoid loosing completely the sense of occlusion when having no
other solid drawing than the wireframe and loosing the transparency when
xray alpha is at 1.0.
Also replace Bayer (checkerboard) method by interlieved gradient noise to
minimize the chance to loose an occluded line completely.
Other noise function could be tested in the future.
This Fix the problem when multiple objects are selected and one of them
occlude the others. You cannot see clearly what is selected.
With this option, selection is more clear when Xray mode is enabled.
By using equation 7 from the paper, we make the surfaces nearest to the
viewpoint appear more "opaque". This gives better sense of ordering than
the previous weighting function that was really not doing anything.
There was a method explained in the Weighted Blended Order-Independent
Transparency paper to support hardware that does not support per render
target blending function.
So now only 2 geometry passes are required instead of 3 (one being the
outline/depth fill pass).
This also fix how the blending is done. There was some premult confusion
in the implementation.
As in Pose Mode, the idea here it to try to reduce viewport complexity
without requiring users to turn off the overlay completely all the time.
For example, a background prop (e.g. a tree with a tyre hanging off it,
or a branch with hand-placed leaves) won't be cluttering the viewport with
its relationship lines all the time, when you're trying to do something else.
When you really do need to see these lines, you can still select the object
in question, and you'll see the lines for which objects are its children
or what its parent is. And to see all lines, you can still always select all
objects.
This patch reduce the branching in the lamp loop, improving compilation time
noticeably (2372ms to 1785ms for the default shader).
This should not change the appearance of the shader.
Performance impact is negligeable.
This fixes the problem that matcaps have when using a very larg FOV in
perspective view.
This was because it was stupidly using the normal direction which can not
aligned with the view vector under perspective.
So to workaround this problem we don't use the normal as is, but compute
how much it's facing the camera.
This changes how matcaps looks in perspective because they now always use
the full range of the matcap (which is expected).
This make the limited wireframe not a performance problem anymore.
However, this does change the number of edges displayed as the threshold
is now computed per vertex instead of per edges.
For this reason we extended (internaly) the range of the slider so that the
users can hide more edge.
