Since most animators find Motion Paths more useful than Armature Ghosting:
* Move Motion Paths before Ghosting settings (less scrolling)
* Collapse Ghosting panel by default
* Open Motion Paths panel by default instead
Rendering OpenGL/Preview is accessible from each editor.
Render settings are accessible from the Film menu when in OpenGL/Preview engine.
It wasn't always predictable especially with Workspaces without or with many viewports.
Also reordering of items, renaming and removal of superfluous icons.
Avoid double label for same properties in single-column.
Onion Skinning: Group custom colors together, and frame before/after together.
Small changes to tooltips.
Top bar is only for settings that apply to the next action
not a way to change existing data.
If each stroke could have a different color this would work as expected,
however it was adjusting the current layer color.
Rename "Seq. Strip" to Strip Name, "Sequence Strip" to Use Strip Metadata.
Plus re-arrange of properties and separators for sections.
Thanks @fsiddi for the feedback.
This commit merge the full development done in greasepencil-object branch and include mainly the following features.
- New grease pencil object.
- New drawing engine.
- New grease pencil modes Draw/Sculpt/Edit and Weight Paint.
- New brushes for grease pencil.
- New modifiers for grease pencil.
- New shaders FX.
- New material system (replace old palettes and colors).
- Split of annotations (old grease pencil) and new grease pencil object.
- UI adapted to blender 2.8.

This is the result of nearly two years of development and I want thanks firstly the other members of the grease pencil team: Daniel M. Lara, Matias Mendiola and Joshua Leung for their support, ideas and to keep working in the project all the time, without them this project had been impossible.
Also, I want thanks other Blender developers for their help, advices and to be there always to help me, and specially to Clément Foucault, Dalai Felinto, Pablo Vázquez and Campbell Barton.
They were added as placeholder to show something until they lazy-load.
But since the load is fast and it's hard to fit the text, and their name
is displayed already in the tooltip, we can do without for now.
In the future when we have insta-tooltips we should make them use this.
Replaced the draw world option with a shading.background_type enum.
Where the user can select Theme, World or a Custom color.
World and theme colors do not always work in workbench. We needed to
have an option what the user could control locally (per viewport).
Especially when using linked data.
I removed the world background drawing from the draw_manager. It was never used as EEVEE and Workbench both override the logic.
Not 100% sure about the naming of Theme, World, Viewport.
In other parts of blender's codebase World is sometimes called Scene.
Will stick to the names that describes its location best.

Show "Operators Cheatsheet" and Python API link only when developers extra is enabled.
Fix URL for User Communities, Developer Community and Release Notes (which 404s
now just like the wiki anyway since the page for 2.80 is being made).
In the outliner, right click > view layer > set indirect only. This is
like clearing camera ray visibility on objects in the collection, and is
temporary until we have more general dynamic overrides.
In the outliner, right click > view layer > set holdout. This is
temporary until we have more general dynamic overrides, but helps
Spring production for now.
Color and Properties panels as sub-panels of Node. Collapse Node properties
by default, since they are already in the node itself and in material properties.
Initial work on single column layout, flow and organization of
the texture properties. More work needs to be done in the C templates
for image textures.
