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.

avoids wrong texture data when multiple objects are exported. Note: This
commit might possiblyt not work fully. The full feature is added with the
next commit)
A user doesn't want to necessarily create a new Screen only because she
wants a new window.
This patch allows the user to pick the screen to use for the new Window.
If the screen picked is the active one, it duplicates it (as the old
behaviour in Blender).

The issue was introduced by 4df75e5 and seems we just need to explicitly
add new keymap item now.
There is still some difference from old behavior, which is planar transform
is using precision movement since e138cde and here i don't see nice solution
currently: the change was requested here in the studio and it's just a
conflict in picking shift key for something which is not supposed to be
accurate.
At least now it's possible to invoke planar constraint and simply unhold
shift.

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.
If I didn't miss anything these are indeed not used. Old themes should still work (will only print info on redundant theme defines into console), but updated non-contrib themes already.
This patch changes a couple of things in the video output encoding.
{F362527}
- Clearer separation between container and codec. No more "format", as this is
too ambiguous. As a result, codecs were removed from the container list.
- Added FFmpeg speed presets, so the user can choosen from the range "Very
slow" to "Ultra fast". By default no preset is used.
- Added Constant Rate Factor (CRF) mode, which allows changing the bit-rate
depending on the desired quality and the input. This generally produces the
best quality videos, at the expense of not knowing the exact bit-rate and
file size.
- Added optional maximum of non-B-frames between B-frames (`max_b_frames`).
- Presets were adjusted for these changes, and new presets added. One of the
new presets is [recommended](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/VFX#H.264)
for reviewing videos, as it allows players to scrub through it easily. Might
be nice in weeklies. This preset also requires control over the
`max_b_frames` setting.
GUI-only changes:
- Renamed "MPEG" in the output file format menu with "FFmpeg", as this is more
accurate. After all, FFmpeg is used when this option is chosen, which can
also output non-MPEG files.
- Certain parts of the GUI are disabled when not in use:
- bit rate options are not used when a constant rate factor is given.
- audio bitrate & volume are not used when no audio is exported.
Note that I did not touch `BKE_ffmpeg_preset_set()`. There are currently two
preset systems for FFmpeg (`BKE_ffmpeg_preset_set()` and the Python preset
system). Before we do more work on `BKE_ffmpeg_preset_set()`, I think it's a
good idea to determine whether we want to keep it at all.
After this patch has been accepted, I'd be happy to go through the code and
remove any then-obsolete bits, such as the handling of "XVID" as a container
format.

There are a lot of cases here where deciding for removal is a bit tricky.
Many features have options for "use_particles" and similar settings. Only
features which actually store a particle object reference or work on actual
particle data have been removed.
Our current keymap doesn't give us enough room to make such changes in
the event system. To fix small issues caused by this, we would need to do
drastic changes in Blender's keymaps and internal handling. It was worth
a try, but it didn't work.
I can write down a more descriptive statement in a few days, but for now
I need a break of this stuff.
I noticed our version code and subversion got out of sync in the past, maybe
that's what the issue was here.
Deleting the entries from the .xml makes it fall back to the default values.
Alt+Mousewheel was used for frame scrubbing which isn't really good as users
may often use this by accident while using Alt for Viewport navigation.
Frame scrubbing/frame_offset() is now called by Ctrl+Alt+Mousewheel (shift +
Mousewheel was already used for scrolling up/down)
This is necessary because the hair dynamics settings are not part of the
ParticleSettings datablock, but part of the convoluted cloth modifier
inside the particle system struct. In the future this will be recoded
properly, but in the meantime presets provide a simple an unobtrusive
way to have reusable dynamics settings for hair.
