Things like pointers to particle systems, or softbody data being stored
outside of its modifier, make it impossible for internal modifier copy
data code to be self-contained currently. It requires extra processing.
In existing code this was handled in several different places, in
several ways, and alltogether fairly inconsistently. Some cases were
even not properly handled, causing e.g. crashes as in T82945.
This commit addresses those issues by:
* Adding comments about the hackish/unsafe parts `psys` implies when
copying some modifier data (since we need to ensure particle system
copying and remapping of those pointers separately).
* Adding as-best-as-possible handling of those cases to
`BKE_object_copy_modifier` (note that it remains fragile, but is
expected to behave 'good enough' in any practical usecase).
* Remove special handling for specific editor code
(`copy_or_reuse_particle_system`). This should never have been
accepted in ED code area, and is now handled by
`BKE_object_copy_modifier`.
* Factorize copying of the whole modifier stack into new
`BKE_object_modifier_stack_copy`, now used by both `object_copy_data`
and `BKE_object_link_modifiers`.
Note that this implies that `BKE_object_copy_modifier` and
`BKE_object_copy_gpencil_modifier` are now to be used exclusively to
copy single modifiers. Full modifier stack copy should always use
`BKE_object_modifier_stack_copy` instead.
Fix T82945: Crash when dragging modifiers in Outliner.

These two operators (one for grease pencil, one for other objects)
copy a single modifier from the active object to all selected objects.
The operators are exposed in the dropdown menus in modifier headers.
Note that It's currently possible to drag and drop modifiers between
objects in the outliner, but that only works for dragging to one object
at a time. Modifiers can also be copied with the "Make Links" operator,
but that copies *all* modifiers rather than just one. The placement
and scope of these new operators allow for more useful poll messages
and error messages as well.
Every object type that supports modifiers is supported. Although hook
and collision modifiers aren't supported because of an unexplained
comment in `BKE_object_copy_modifier`, other than that, every modifier
type is supported, including particle systems, nodes modifiers, etc.
The new modifiers are set active, which required two small tweaks to
`object.c` and `particle.c`.

It's easier to read and less 'weird' to check that an item is non-local
in a liboverride data-block, than the other way around. Thanks to
@sybren for noticing it.
RNA collections that support insertion of new items in liboverride
data-block need a special way to distiguish between locale and
orig-from-linked items (since some operations are allowed on the forer,
but no the latter).
In future we want a proper solution to abstract that at the
`BKE_lib_override` level, but for now we need to add some code for each
case.
Note that this commit also fixes a few potential issues with GPencil
modifiers, and constraints, regarding their handling of local overrides.
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.

* Attribute Math
* Boolean
* Edge Split
* Float Compare

* 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.

* Dalai Felinto
* Hans Goudey
* Jacques Lucke

When creating an armature from the skin modifier, resulting bones would
always be flagged BONE_CONNECTED.
Those bones cannot be transformed (just rotated).
Now only flag bones that really have a parent BONE_CONNECTED.

`WM_operator_properties_filesel()` allows C operators to set a display or sort
type for the File Browser to use. But the File Browser would always override
that because of an invalid `_is_set()` check. (The operators don't actually set
the value, they only set the property's default value.)
The only operator affected by this is "Recover Auto Save". It is supposed to
show a vertical list ordered chronologically. It used settings from the
previous File Browser usage before this patch.
Operators using the File Browser should generally use
`FILE_DEFAULTDISPLAY`/`FILE_SORT_DEFAULT` now, except if they have a reason not
to. See comments at their definition.
----
This makes it so operators that set a different display or sort type
don't change the sort or display type for the next File Browser operation.
So using "Recover Auto Save" entirely isolates display and sort type from other
operations.

Functions `mesh_create_eval_final_view()` and
`mesh_create_eval_final_render()` were doing the exact same thing,
except for a hack introduced in d3eb9dddd6 (2012-10-08, Better fix for
T32846: dupligroup messes up particle instancing on rendering) that
appears to be no longer necessary. Besides that, these functions had
confusing names. Their functionality changed over time, and whether to
do for-render or for-viewport evaluation is now actually determined by
the depsgraph evaluation mode. This means that the `..._render` function
could evaluate a mesh with viewport settings, and vice versa.
The functions are now merged into `mesh_create_eval_final()`, and the
hack has been removed. The `OB_NO_PSYS_UPDATE` flag has been removed
entirely (instead of keeping it around as deprecated flag), because it
was always only temporarily set on objects during mesh evaluation and
thus not saved to the blend file.
No expected functional changes as far as users are concerned.
It is unfortunate that we cannot get active modifier from context when
operator is called from a shortcut, but we'd need an event for this to
work... So for now forbid any modifier operation of liboverride objects
in that case.
This addresses warnings from Clang-Tidy's `readability-else-after-return`
rule in the `source/blender/blenlib` module. Not all warnings are
addressed in this commit.
No functional changes.
Following work done in 2.83, the resolution control is now a real
level-of-detail parameter. It is now useful to be able to set the
resolution for display independently from render. This is true for
both mesh generation and mesh deformation modes.
For compatibility with old scenes, resolution is retained and is the
render resolution. Old modifiers loaded have the value of resolution
also applied to viewport resolution. This allows newer modifiers to
be used in older versions without trouble

Custom driver functions need access to the dependency graph that is
triggering the evaluation of the driver. This patch passes the
dependency graph pointer through all the animation-related calls.
Instead of passing the evaluation time to functions, the code now passes
an `AnimationEvalContext` pointer:
```
typedef struct AnimationEvalContext {
struct Depsgraph *const depsgraph;
const float eval_time;
} AnimationEvalContext;
```
These structs are read-only, meaning that the code cannot change the
evaluation time. Note that the `depsgraph` pointer itself is const, but
it points to a non-const depsgraph.
FCurves and Drivers can be evaluated at a different time than the
current scene time, for example when evaluating NLA strips. This means
that, even though the current time is stored in the dependency graph, we
need an explicit evaluation time.
There are two functions that allow creation of `AnimationEvalContext`
objects:
- `BKE_animsys_eval_context_construct(Depsgraph *depsgraph, float
eval_time)`, which creates a new context object from scratch, and
- `BKE_animsys_eval_context_construct_at(AnimationEvalContext
*anim_eval_context, float eval_time)`, which can be used to create a
`AnimationEvalContext` with the same depsgraph, but at a different
time. This makes it possible to later add fields without changing any
of the code that just want to change the eval time.
This also provides a fix for T75553, although it does require a change
to the custom driver function. The driver should call
`custom_function(depsgraph)`, and the function should use that depsgraph
instead of information from `bpy.context`.

Duplication and deletion code of modifiers was totally wrong for
particle system, that special weird thing needs its own custom
management.
Note that for now I chose not to duplicate the particle settings ID when
duplicating the modifier...
This can be useful to save the result of a cloth simulation as a
shape key without destroying the simulation, so it's possible to
e.g. re-run it to get other shapes, or simply use the new shape
key to start the simulation already in a draped state.
It also makes sense to allow applying as shape key even when the
mesh is shared, because the operation itself just adds a shape
key. To support this, split the apply operator into Apply and
Apply As Shapekey so that they can have different poll callbacks.

See rB1fa40c9f8a81 for more details. The implementation is the same.
The only difference to the mesh modifier commit is a slight rework of
edit_modifier_invoke_properties in order to pass through to check for
other keymap items with the same shortcut.
The shortcuts act on the modifier with its panel under the mouse.
The following shortcuts are enabled by default:
- Remove modifier: X, Delete
- Apply modifier: Ctrl A
- Duplicate modifier: Shift D
More shortcuts can be added in the keymap.
Each panel can now store a custom data RNA pointer, and a new
function is added to get the custom data for the panel under the
cursor. This custom data could be used to refactor the "List Panel
System" to generalize it and integrate it further with RNA.
The same functionality will be added in further commits where it
applies to constraints, grease pencil modifiers, and effects.

This patch implements the list panel system D7490 for modifiers.
It also moves modifier drawing to a callback in ModifierTypeInfo
in line with the extensible architecture refactoring goal T75724.
This adds a PanelRegister callback and utilities for registering
panels and subpanels. It also adds the callbacks for expansion saving
and drag and drop reordering described in D7490.
These utilities, callbacks, and other common UI elements shared
between modifiers live in MOD_ui_common.c.
Because modifier buttons are now in panels, we can make use of
subpanels for organization. The UI layouts also use the single
column layout style consistently used elsewhere in Blender.
Additionally, the mode-setting buttons are aligned and ordered
consistently with the outliner.
However, the large number of UI changes in this patch may mean
that additional polishing is required in master.
Thanks to William Reynish (@billreynish) who did a fair amount of the
layout work and to Julian Eisel (@Severin) for consistent help.

The fix was actually missing few bits:
- Firstly, the operator itself is not to do UNDO push
- Secondly, multires sculpt/top level are not pushed to the undo
node, so undo can not happen reliably.
It should be possible to incorporate some of the work from WIP patch
for propagation undo, but it needs more work.
Reverting code base to the previous state, since currently things

This reverts commit 0c928087a3.
This introduces two alternative subdivision modes that generates
displacement on the grids that look as Simple subdivisions but while
using the Catmull-Clark subdivision type in the modifier. This way,
Simple and Catmull-Clark subdivision can be combined when creating new
levels if needed, for example, to sculpt hard surface objects.
Subdivide simple smooths the sculpted data when creating a new
subdivision level. Subdivide linear also preserves the sharpness
in the sculpted data.
