This commit adds functions to set and get the object's active
modifier, which is stored as a flag in the ModifierData struct,
similar to constraints. This will be used to set the context in
the node editor. There are no visible changes in this commit.
Similar to how the node editor context works for materials, this commit
makes the node group displayed in the node editor depend on the active
object and its active modifier. To keep the node group from changing,
just pin the node group in the header.
* Shortcuts performed while there is an active modifier will affect
only that modifier (the exception is the A to expand the modifiers).
* Clicking anywhere on the empty space in a modifier's panel will make it active.
These changes require some refactoring of object modifier code. First
is splitting up the modifier property invoke callback, which now needs
to be able to get the active modifier separately from the hovered
modifier for the different operators.
Second is a change to removing modifiers, where there is now a separate
function to remove a modifier from an object's list, in order to handle
changing the active.
Finally, the panel handler needs a small tweak so that this "click in panel"
event can be handled afterwards.
This is the initial merge from the geometry-nodes branch.
Nodes:
* Attribute Math
* Boolean
* Edge Split
* Float Compare
* Object Info
* Point Distribute
* Point Instance
* Random Attribute
* Random Float
* Subdivision Surface
* Transform
* Triangulate
It includes the initial evaluation of geometry node groups in the Geometry Nodes modifier.
Notes on the Generic attribute access API
The API adds an indirection for attribute access. That has the following benefits:
* Most code does not have to care about how an attribute is stored internally.
This is mainly necessary, because we have to deal with "legacy" attributes
such as vertex weights and attributes that are embedded into other structs
such as vertex positions.
* When reading from an attribute, we generally don't care what domain the
attribute is stored on. So we want to abstract away the interpolation that
that adapts attributes from one domain to another domain (this is not
actually implemented yet).
Other possible improvements for later iterations include:
* Actually implement interpolation between domains.
* Don't use inheritance for the different attribute types. A single class for read
access and one for write access might be enough, because we know all the ways
in which attributes are stored internally. We don't want more different internal
structures in the future. On the contrary, ideally we can consolidate the different
storage formats in the future to reduce the need for this indirection.
* Remove the need for heap allocations when creating attribute accessors.
It includes commits from:
* Dalai Felinto
* Hans Goudey
* Jacques Lucke
* Léo Depoix
Those two features are not directly related and one might be activated
in master earlier than the other.
WITH_PARTICLE_NODES was removed, because we continue the project
under the name "Geometry Nodes".
Define enum `eContextResult` and use its values for returns, instead of
just returning 1, 0, or -1 (and always having some comment that explains
what -1 means).
This also cleans up the mixup between returning `0` and `false`, and `1`
and `true`. An inconsistency was discovered during this cleanup, and
marked with `TODO(sybren)`. It's not fixed here, as it would consititute
a functional change.
The enum isn't used everywhere, as enums in C and C++ can have different
storage sizes. To prevent issues, callback functions are still declared
as returning`int`. To at least make things easier to understand for
humans, I marked those with `int /*eContextResult*/`.
This is a followup of D9090, and is intended to unify how context
callbacks return values. This will make it easier to extend the approach
in D9090 to those functions.
No functional changes.

The data member `new` was conflicting with the `new` keyword
when `BKE_screen.h` was included in C++ files.

This addresses warnings from Clang-Tidy's `readability-else-after-return`
rule in the `source/blender/editors/space_node` module.
No functional changes.
This replaces the cmake options `WITH_NEW_OBJECT_TYPES` and
`WITH_NEW_SIMULATION_TYPE` with two experimental userpref settings:
* `use_new_particle_system`: Enables the point cloud type and the simulation editor.
* `use_new_hair_type`: Only displays the add-operator in the add menu for now.
Note, in the current state you can't do anything productive with the new particle
system or the new hair type. Features will be added step by step in the upcoming
weeks and months.

No idea why node editor remap callback was only handling scene IDs (and
not any other ntree owner)...
Note that this should be a safe fix, but it unvails a nice can of worm,
at some point we should ba able to handle all of that through libquery
only, get rid of editor's remap callbacks, and probably sanitize usages
of ID pointers by some of them, like that nodetree editor.
Current situation remains a fairly fragile mess...
This implements a new builtin node tree type called `SimulationNodeTree`.
It is not yet embedded in the `Simulation` data block.
The node tree will initially be used for the new particle nodes system.
When the cmake option `WITH_NEW_SIMULATION_TYPE` is enabled, a new
`Simulation Editor` is shown in the editors menu (which is just a node editor).
This patch does not add entries to the Add Node menu, so it is empty.

This editor's code was a bit schizophrenic, some parts considering its
nodetree usages as real refcounted ones, others, as shallow 'user one'
ones...
Editors should not be real ID users anyway, unless there are *very* good
reasons for it, so swich it to fully 'shallow' usage now.
Follow up of b2ee1770d4 and 10c2254d41, part of T74432.
Now the area and region naming conventions should be less confusing.
Mostly a careful batch rename but had to do few smaller fixes.
Also ran clang-format on affected files.
The old convention was easy to confuse with ScrArea.
Part of https://developer.blender.org/T74432.
This is mostly a batch rename with some manual fixing. Only single word
variable names are changed, no prefixed/suffixed names.
Brecht van Lommel and Campbell Barton both gave me a green light for
this convention change.
Also ran clan clang format on affected files.
Previously only a fixed bounding box could be used.
This was not flexible enough.
T63193 will benefit from this refactor.

Add getter callback support for 'WM_HANDLER_TYPE_KEYMAP' type handlers
this is needed for key-maps which change based on the active tool.
Replaces 'sneaky_handler' hack which temporarily inserted a handler.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.

Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
Currently drop operators work mostly by specifying the name of the datablock.
However there can be datablocks with the same name in different libraries, so
this gives wrong results in some cases.
Currently only outliner drop operators have been updated to use this mechanism.
