This is the unification of all overlays into one overlay engine as described in T65347.
I went over all the code making it more future proof with less hacks and removing old / not relevent parts.
Goals / Acheivements:
- Remove internal shader usage (only drw shaders)
- Remove viewportSize and viewportSizeInv and put them in gloabl ubo
- Fixed some drawing issues: Missing probe option and Missing Alt+B clipping of some shader
- Remove old (legacy) shaders dependancy (not using view UBO).
- Less shader variation (less compilation time at first load and less patching needed for vulkan)
- removed some geom shaders when I could
- Remove static e_data (except shaders storage where it is OK)
- Clear the way to fix some anoying limitations (dithered transparency, background image compositing etc...)
- Wireframe drawing now uses the same batching capabilities as workbench & eevee (indirect drawing).
- Reduced complexity, removed ~3000 Lines of code in draw (also removed a lot of unused shader in GPU).
- Post AA to avoid complexity and cost of MSAA.
Remaining issues:
- ~~Armature edits, overlay toggles, (... others?) are not refreshing viewport after AA is complete~~
- FXAA is not the best for wires, maybe investigate SMAA
- Maybe do something more temporally stable for AA.
- ~~Paint overlays are not working with AA.~~
- ~~infront objects are difficult to select.~~
- ~~the infront wires sometimes goes through they solid counterpart (missing clear maybe?) (toggle overlays on-off when using infront+wireframe overlay in solid shading)~~
Note: I made some decision to change slightly the appearance of some objects to simplify their drawing. Namely the empty arrows end (which is now hollow/wire) and distance points of the cameras/spots being done by lines.

Instead of having the option to show marker lines,
make the marker region optional.
- Added a Show Markers entry in the View menu of the animation editors.
- If the markers region is not active then the Marker menu gets hidden.
- Removed marker menu from the driver editor
and don't allow to use marker operators.
This patch will allow the user to select the EEVEE renderpass to be
shown in the viewport by default the combined pass will be shown.
Limitations:
* Viewport rendering stores the result in a `RenderResult`. RenderResult
is not aware of the type of data it holds. In many places where RenderResult
is used it is assumed that it stores a combined pass and the display+view
transform are applied.
I will propose to fix this in a future patch. But that is still being
designed and discussed.

This adds support to the current sculpt sample detail operator to sample
a voxel size for the voxel remesher when sculpting on regular meshes.
It provides an approximation of a voxel size that is going to preserve
the sampled sculpt details after remeshing. It is not going to be 100%
accurate in all cases as it relies on having consistent edge length in
the whole sculpt, but it saves a lot of time and avoids guessing the
voxel size by trying different values.

The relation between the pressure/size and the pressure/alpha is a
fundamental property that defines the behavior of a brush, so it does
not make sense to have it unified across all brushes. This applies both
for sculpting and painting.
Some of the new 2.82 brushes need pressure/size or pressure/alpha to be
enabled to work propely, while others don't. Users should not be
switching on and off this property manually when changing brushes if they
want to use unified size. This is also causing that some users are using
the brushes with an incorrect configuration.

Unfortunately, it didn't turn out to be as great as I've hoped to it
will.
The issue is: the label eats too much space, making selector buttons
and image name to be barely readable. Initial idea of making the panel
somewhat wider didn't work either: due to the sizing policy of label
it takes a lot of panel width to make image name readable.

After adding normal radius, the main use of the Scrape brush is to create flat surfaces with sharp edges. In that case, it does not make sense to have our current "Peaks" version of the brush as its inverted version.
The correct inverted version of Scrape for this use case is the Fill brush. This way you can use this tool to crease both concave and convex sharp edges and to fix the artifacts one version produces with its inverted version.
I think we should merge these two tools into one, but for now, this solution keeps compatibility with the old behavior.

The smooth iterations of the pose factor were hardcoded to 4. This works fine in most situations when you are posing a low poly mesh, which is the main use case of this tool. I added the smooth iterations as a brush property in case you need to pose a high poly mesh directly without producing artifacts.

This operator is similar to Mask Extract, but it deletes the masked points on the original mesh and fills the holes. This can be useful for quickly trimming or splitting an object.
This is not meant to be the main trimming tool of sculpt mode. I plan to have a set of trimming tools based on geometry booleans (trim box, lasso, line, bisect...) but in some cases doing a mask selection is more convenient.

The Multiplane Scrape brush creates sharp edges with a given fixed angle by trimming the mesh with two planes in local space at the same time. When working with stylized or hard surface models, this brush produces way better results and is more predictable than any other crease/flatten brush based on curves and alphas.
It is also the first brush we have than can produce hard surface concave creases.
The Multiplane Scrape Brush also has a dynamic mode where it samples the surface to fit the angle and scrape planes during a stroke. With this mode enabled you can sculpt multiple times over the same edge without creating artifacts.
It can also create creases that change between concave and convex during the same stroke.
The behavior of this brush will improve after merging patches like D5993 and its behavior in concave creases can still be improved, so I will keep tweaking its parameters and default values once we have all brush properties available.

Previously these used a gizmo to redo the operator however this
complicated having on-screen gizmos to access tools (see T66304).
Replace this with a generic way to make an operator that only has an
execute function into a modal operator.
This is used for smooth and randomize tools.
Unlike operator gestures, this handles storing and resetting the data.
Currently this only handles edit-mode data, however it's can be
extended to other kinds of data.
Removed the weight limit and made the setting more clear in what it actually does.
IE, it controlls the weight of the vertices of the cloth mesh

Custom profiles in bevel allows the profile curve to be controlled by
manually placed control points. Orientation is regularized along
groups of edges, and the 'pipe case' is updated. This commit includes
many updates to comments and changed variable names as well.
A 'cutoff' vertex mesh method is added to bevel in addition to the
existing grid fill option for replacing vertices.
The UI of the bevel modifier and tool are updated and unified.
Also, a 'CurveProfile' widget is added to BKE for defining the profile
in the interface, which may be useful in other situations.
Many thanks to Howard, my mentor for this GSoC project.

Most of the time Stretch To is used in actual rigs, like BlenRig
or Rigify, in combination with Damped Track to handle rotation
before the stretch, because it produces rotations more appropriate
for organic deformation, and doesn't flip because of internal
gimbal lock.
The prevalence of this pattern suggests that Stretch To should
support that kind of rotation directly as an option.

with edges using 3 or more faces as input, resulting in a manifold mesh.
Since the differences between these methods don't translate well
into short terms, they're named "Simple" and "Complex" in the UI.
