Average selected tracks into the new one. This can be used to improve
stability of tracking on blurry or non-very-sharp feature shapes.
Averaging happens for all position, pattern corners and search area.
Disabled markers do not take effect on averaging. Keyframed flag is
copied from source.
Gaps in the source tracks will be linearly interpolated, to reduce
result track jump. Note that this only applies to gaps "inbetween".
This means that if an input track doesn't have markers in the
beginning/end of it, there is nothing to interpolate with and the
result track will jump.
Available from the Track panel, under the Merge category.

The caller is still responsible for allocating list of markers,
but the track allocation and initialization can now be reused.
Currently no functional changes, preparing for an upcoming
development.
This replaces header include guards with `#pragma once`.
A couple of include guards are not removed yet (e.g. `__RNA_TYPES_H__`),
because they are used in other places.
This patch has been generated by P1561 followed by `make format`.

Don't use BKE_view_layer_context_active_PLACEHOLDER which is marked
as "never use this".
In fact, it isn't needed to lookup for camera in the tracking function
at all: camera object is always explicitly passed to it.
Before this the message could be too generic which was simply saying
that console is to be checked. This isn't very useful in cases when
we know that reconstruction is failed because of lack of good keyframes
or failure of initial reconstruction if there is no enough parallax
on the selected keyframes.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.

This commit makes it so curve path parent solving accepts an explicit
arguments for both time and curve speed flag, making it so we don't
have to mock around with scene's frame.
One unfortunate issue still is that if the instancing object is used
for something else, we might be running into a threading conflict.
Possible solution would be to create a temp copy of an object, but
then it will be an issue of preventing drivers from modifying other
datablocks.
At least the original issue is fixed now, and things behave same as
in older Blender version. Additionally, the global variable which
was defining curve speed flag behavior is gone now!
The depsgraph was always created within a fixed evaluation context. Passing
both risks the depsgraph and evaluation context not matching, and it
complicates the Python API where we'd have to expose both which is not so
easy to understand.
This also removes the global evaluation context in main, which assumed there
to be a single active scene and view layer.

This will allow much finer controll over how we copy data-blocks, from
full copy in Main database, to "lighter" ones (out of Main, inside an
already allocated datablock, etc.).
This commit also transfers a llot of what was previously handled by
per-ID-type custom code to generic ID handling code in BKE_library.
Hopefully will avoid in future inconsistencies and missing bits we had
all over the codebase in the past.
It also adds missing copying handling for a few types, most notably
Scene (which where using a fully customized handling previously).
Note that the type of allocation used during copying (regular in Main,
allocated but outside of Main, or not allocated by ID handling code at
all) is stored in ID's, which allows to handle them correctly when
freeing. This needs to be taken care of with caution when doing 'weird'
unusual things with ID copying and/or allocation!
As a final note, while rather noisy, this commit will hopefully not
break too much existing branches, old 'API' has been kept for the main
part, as a wrapper around new code. Cleaning it up will happen later.

Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
Noisy change, but safe, and better do it sooner than later if we are to
rework copying code. Also, previous commit shows this *is* useful to
catch some mistakes.

This proposal attempts to improve usability of Blender's image stabilization
feature for real-world footage esp. with moving and panning camera. It builds
upon the feature tracking to get a measurement of 2D image movement.
- Use a weighted average of movement contributions (instead of a median).
- Allow for rotation compensation and zoom (image scale) compensation.
- Allow to pick a different set of tracks for translation and for
rotation/zoom.
- Treat translation / rotation / zoom contributions systematically in a
similar way.
- Improve handling of partial tracking data with gaps and varying
start / end points.
- Have a user definable anchor frame and interpolate / extrapolate data to
avoid jumping back to "neutral" position when no tracking data is available.
- Support for travelling and panning shots by including an //intended//
position/rotation/zoom ("target position"). The idea is for these parameters
to be //animated// by the user, in order to supply an smooth, intended
camera movement. This way, we can keep the image content roughly in frame
even when moving completely away from the initial view.
A known shortcoming is that the pivot point for rotation compensation is set to
the translation compensated image center. This can produce spurious rotation on
travelling shots, which needs to be compensated manually (by animating the
target rotation parameter). There are several possible ways to address that
problem, yet all of them are considered beyond the scope of this improvement
proposal for now.
Own modifications:
- Restrict line length, it's really handy for split-view editing
- In motion tracking we prefer fully human-readable comments, meaning we
don't use doxygen with it's weird markup and comments are supposed to
start with capital and end with a full stop,
- Add explicit comparison of pointer to NULL.

The title actually tells it all, this commit switches Blender to use the new
autotrack API from Libmv.
From the user point of view it means that prediction model is now used when
tracking which gives really nice results.
All the other changes are not really visible for users, those are just frame
accessors, caches and so for the new API.
This commit makes it so CameraIntrinsics is no longer hardcoded
to use the traditional polynomial radial distortion model. Currently
the distortion code has generic logic which is shared between
different distortion models, but had no other models until now.
This moves everything specific to the polynomial radial distortion
to a subclass PolynomialDistortionCameraIntrinsics(), and adds a
new division distortion model suitable for cameras such as the
GoPro which have much stronger distortion due to their fisheye lens.
This also cleans up the internal API of CameraIntrinsics to make
it easier to understand and reduces old C-style code.
New distortion model is available in the Lens panel of MCE.
- Polynomial is the old well-known model
- Division is the new one which s intended to deal better with huge
distortion.
Coefficients of this model works independent from each other
and for division model one probably want to have positive values
to have a barrel distortion.
Switch the detector API to a single function which accepts
a float image and detector options. This makes usage of
feature detection more unified across different algorithms.
Options structure is pretty much straightforward and contains
detector to be used and all the detector-specific settings.
Also implemented Harris feature detection algorithm which
is not as fast as FAST one but is expected to detect more
robust feature points. It is also likely that less features
are detected, but better quality than quantity.
Blender will now use Harris detector by default, later we'll
remove FAST detector.
