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.

Steps to reproduce were:
* Open Blender, create a new scene
* Go back to initial scene, transform object
* Switch back to newly created scene, change operator settings there
* Should cause a crash (at least with asan)
Should behave like 2.7 now, that is, switch scene back to where
operator was executed.
Running undo would notify manipulators to refresh,
but this still allowed for events in the queue to be handled,
where manipulators could be drawn for selection before
their refresh callback runs.
This made Python manipulators raise exceptions
about referencing invalid data (or crash).
Now tag manipulator update on file load (including undo)
and ensure the refresh callback runs
before drawing manipulator selection.
Also split manipulator map refresh flag in two since selection doesn't
perform the same operations as regular drawing.
This commit effectively makes workspace switching useless as far as the
active scene layer goes.
The functions from the scene layer API to get the correct scene layer
from "context" were a placeholder to be addressed by the workspace
commit.
When workspace was merged, however G.main was used as a replacement to pass the
correct argument for the functions. As it turned out (surprise!) this
leads to crash on render preview.
We need to get rid of:
* BKE_scene_layer_context_active_ex_PLACEHOLDER
* BKE_scene_layer_context_active_PLACEHOLDER
And either use SceneLayer explicitly or replace it by:
* BKE_scene_layer_from_workspace_get
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 :)

Internal change needed for template support.
Loading the user preferences first so it's possible
for preferences to control startup behavior.
In general it's useful to load preferences before data-files,
so we know security settings for eg.
I) Filename was not put in temp Main generated to save selected data only,
this was breaking readcode when trying to open partial file, leading to missing
filename in final loaded Main data.
II) Read code would confuse partial .blend files with Undo ones, when they had no screen in them
(which happens to 99.999% of partial .blend files I guess).
Reported by @sybren, thanks.
Should be safe enough for 2.78 release.
When writing temp blenbuffer file, libraries of linked datablocks where not tagged correctly, which
means they were not put in the temp Main used to write the buffer, resulting in implicit localization
of linked data.
