Replaces the placeholder 'emtpy' icons of "Force Field" and "Group
Instance" entries in object-add menu with proper new ones.
Icons by @zlsa, thanks a lot!
Maniphest task T51291.
After using it for like 30 sec, the min max bound box is absolutely not practical. Reverting into using a unit cube with object transform.
This also simplify the code.
In the future of center probes will be implemented using another object matrix (via an object pointer).
This commit does the main integration of workspaces, which is a design we agreed on during the 2.8 UI workshop (see https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.8/UI/Workshop_Writeup)
Workspaces should generally be stable, I'm not aware of any remaining bugs (or I've forgotten them :) ). If you find any, let me know!
(Exception: mode switching button might get out of sync with actual mode in some cases, would consider that a limitation/ToDo. Needs to be resolved at some point.)
== Main Changes/Features
* Introduces the new Workspaces as data-blocks.
* Allow storing a number of custom workspaces as part of the user configuration. Needs further work to allow adding and deleting individual workspaces.
* Bundle a default workspace configuration with Blender (current screen-layouts converted to workspaces).
* Pressing button to add a workspace spawns a menu to select between "Duplicate Current" and the workspaces from the user configuration. If no workspaces are stored in the user configuration, the default workspaces are listed instead.
* Store screen-layouts (`bScreen`) per workspace.
* Store an active screen-layout per workspace. Changing the workspace will enable this layout.
* Store active mode in workspace. Changing the workspace will also enter the mode of the new workspace. (Note that we still store the active mode in the object, moving this completely to workspaces is a separate project.)
* Store an active render layer per workspace.
* Moved mode switch from 3D View header to Info Editor header.
* Store active scene in window (not directly workspace related, but overlaps quite a bit).
* Removed 'Use Global Scene' User Preference option.
* Compatibility with old files - a new workspace is created for every screen-layout of old files. Old Blender versions should be able to read files saved with workspace support as well.
* Default .blend only contains one workspace ("General").
* Support appending workspaces.
Opening files without UI and commandline rendering should work fine.
Note that the UI is temporary! We plan to introduce a new global topbar
that contains the workspace options and tabs for switching workspaces.
== Technical Notes
* Workspaces are data-blocks.
* Adding and removing `bScreen`s should be done through `ED_workspace_layout` API now.
* A workspace can be active in multiple windows at the same time.
* The mode menu (which is now in the Info Editor header) doesn't display "Grease Pencil Edit" mode anymore since its availability depends on the active editor. Will be fixed by making Grease Pencil an own object type (as planned).
* The button to change the active workspace object mode may get out of sync with the mode of the active object. Will either be resolved by moving mode out of object data, or we'll disable workspace modes again (there's a `#define USE_WORKSPACE_MODE` for that).
* Screen-layouts (`bScreen`) are IDs and thus stored in a main list-base. Had to add a wrapper `WorkSpaceLayout` so we can store them in a list-base within workspaces, too. On the long run we could completely replace `bScreen` by workspace structs.
* `WorkSpace` types use some special compiler trickery to allow marking structs and struct members as private. BKE_workspace API should be used for accessing those.
* Added scene operators `SCENE_OT_`. Was previously done through screen operators.
== BPY API Changes
* Removed `Screen.scene`, added `Window.scene`
* Removed `UserPreferencesView.use_global_scene`
* Added `Context.workspace`, `Window.workspace` and `BlendData.workspaces`
* Added `bpy.types.WorkSpace` containing `screens`, `object_mode` and `render_layer`
* Added Screen.layout_name for the layout name that'll be displayed in the UI (may differ from internal name)
== What's left?
* There are a few open design questions (T50521). We should find the needed answers and implement them.
* Allow adding and removing individual workspaces from workspace configuration (needs UI design).
* Get the override system ready and support overrides per workspace.
* Support custom UI setups as part of workspaces (hidden panels, hidden buttons, customizable toolbars, etc).
* Allow enabling add-ons per workspace.
* Support custom workspace keymaps.
* Remove special exception for workspaces in linking code (so they're always appended, never linked). Depends on a few things, so best to solve later.
* Get the topbar done.
* Workspaces need a proper icon, current one is just a placeholder :)

Add face maps, needed for face-map widgets,
only data structure, widgets will be separate commit.
This comes from 'custom-manipulator' branch with only minor changes.
This operator relies on a rather specific context setup, so it shall not
be exposed to user in 'operator search' menu etc.
Based on D2528 by Vuk Gardašević (lijenstina).
TexFace complicates the now more popular shading pipeline by having
per-face images, see: T51382 for details.
To keep the ability to select a per-material edit-image
(used with UV-mapping workflow), the material now stores an image
which will be set when changing images in edit-mode.
This is used as a bake-target when not using Cycles too.
The "Modern Viewport" was an option in the Viewport panel that would use
the new fancy wire frame code and some depth debugging functionality.
This was introduced as a quick and dirty way to get the new drawing
system showing in the viewport.
Overtime we built a complete Draw Manager system, leaving this original
approach deprecated which adds clutter to Blender code since it would be
removed sooner or later.
Note: The new fancy wireframes and related shaders (white out other
objects) are still in Blender code, though you can't use them anymore.
If we are to have any of those drawing options they should be integrated
in the new draw manager, instead of integrated in the old drawing
pipeline as it was originally coded.
This commit fixes two issues:
- UV/Image editor uvs menu did not match the 3D View's which was changed in rB2b240b043078
- Circle select tool was missing in particle edit mode

Although this is working fine, there are two changes expected in the new
future once depsgraph copy on write is implemented:
1) To call ED_info_stats_clear a callback from depsgraph, instead of the
notifier system. (that would also allow us to clear only one
SceneLayer).
2) To store/get stats from the evaluated SceneLayer, as well as iterate
over the evaluated objects as well.
