This implements the main unsubdivide algorithm which rebuilds a base mesh and extracts the grid's data from a high resolution mesh.
It includes the Rebuild Subdivisions operator, which generates all subdivision levels down to the level 0 base mesh.
It supports:
- Rebuilding an arbitrary number of levels (Unsubdivide) or as many levels as possible down to level 0 in a single step (Rebuild Subdivisions).
- Rebuilding with already existing grids.
- Meshes with n-gons and triangles
- Meshes with more than 2 faces per edge
- Base mesh made completely out of triangles
- Meshes without poles
- Meshes with multiple disconnected elements at the same subdivision level

The idea is to push both base mesh geometry and PBVH coordinates
so it is possible to undo everything without loosing data which was
not flushed from sculpt session to base mesh.
It is possible do memory optimization to avoid push custom data
layers which are not touched by operator, but before doing that
better to ensure this is a correct and working approach.

This change fixes artifacts produced by these operations.
On a technical aspect this is done by porting all of the operations
to the new subdivision surface implementation which ensures that
tangent space used to evaluate modifier and those operations is
exactly the same (before modifier will use new code and the operations
will still use an old one).
The next step is to get sculpting on a non-top level to work, and
that actually requires fixes in the undo system.
Also cleaned up code there, making a proper poll function for the apply
modifier operator, that way button is properly disabled in UI itself in
most invalid situations.
This data is only used to get current time/frame value, which is never
mandatory to add a modifier.
Needed by incoming fix to support particles modifiers in liboverrides.
Previously the cache for the modifier would not be invalidated if
modifier settings were changed with drivers or keyframes.
Now we compare the current setting with the ones used to generate the
cache and invalidate the cache if they differ.

Make a distinction between flush sculpt changes for rendering, and forcing
sculpt data structures to be rebuilt after mesh changes. Also don't use PBVH
for renders.
The old layout of `PointerRNA` was confusing for historic reasons:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct {
void *data;
} id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
This patch updates it to:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct ID *owner_id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
Throughout the code base `id.data` was replaced with `owner_id`.
Furthermore, many explicit pointer type casts were added which
were implicit before. Some type casts to `ID *` were removed.

This change ensures that operators which needs access to evaluated data
first makes sure there is a dependency graph.
Other accesses to the dependency graph made it more explicit about
whether they just need a valid dependency graph pointer or whether they
expect the graph to be already evaluated.
This replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA which is now removed.
Some general rules about usage of accessors:
- Drawing is expected to happen from a fully evaluated dependency graph.
There is now a function to access it, which will in the future control
that dependency graph is actually evaluated.
This check is not yet done because there are some things to be taken
care about first: for example, post-update hooks might leave scene in
a state where something is still tagged for update.
- All operators which needs to access evaluated state must use
CTX_data_ensure_evaluated_depsgraph().
This function replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA.
The call is generally to be done in the very beginning of the
operator, prior other logic (unless this is some comprehensive
operator which might or might not need access to an evaluated state).
This call is never to be used from a loop.
If some utility function requires evaluated state of dependency graph
the graph is to be passed as an explicit argument. This way it is
clear that no evaluation happens in a loop or something like this.
- All cases which needs to know dependency graph pointer, but which
doesn't want to actually evaluate it can use old-style function
CTX_data_depsgraph_pointer(), assuming that underlying code will
ensure dependency graph is evaluated prior to accessing it.
- The new functions are replacing OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA, so now it is
explicit and local about where dependency graph is being ensured.
This commit also contains some fixes of wrong usage of evaluation
functions on original objects. Ideally should be split out, but in
reality with all the APIs being renamed is quite tricky.
Fixes T67454: Blender crash on rapid undo and select
Speculation here is that sometimes undo and selection operators are
sometimes handled in the same event loop iteration, which leaves
non-evaluated dependency graph.

Use explicit boolean flag to indicate whether flush to original data
is needed or not. Makes it possible to avoid confusion on whether an
evaluated or any depsgraph can be passed to the API.
Allows to remove depsgraph from bAnimContext as well.

Some modifier operators cannot be reliably executed from Edit mode
currently, so disable them from the generic mod ops pool function.
Have been very conservative here from now, keeping existing behavior
most of the time, and only forbidding Edit mode when code was already
doing it in its own way, or when it was obviously not possible.
Main issue in that report was that meshes generated from
`mesh_create_eval_final_view()` and the like need some
special freeing handling (as, among other things, they borrow and do not
own their potential editmesh data...).
Factorized that into a helper func also used by
`BKE_object_free_derived_caches()`.
Better to make internal code naming match official/UI naming to some
extent, this will reduce confusion in the future.
This is 'breaking' scripts and files that would use that feature, but
since it is not yet officially supported nor exposed in 2.80, as far
as that release is concerned, it is effectively
a 'no functional changes' commit.
This is old logic that no longer makes sense in the new depsgraph, and causes
issues when multiple threads try to modify the same bevel object.

A regression since 64c8d72ef1.
The solution is to force modifier evaluation for an evaluated
object, and let it to copy binding data back to original when
is being evaluated for binding.

Convention was not to but after discussion on 918941483f we agree its
best to change the convention.
Names now mostly follow RNA.
Some exceptions:
- Use 'nodetrees' instead of 'nodegroups'
since the struct is called NodeTree.
- Use 'gpencils' instead of 'grease_pencil'
since 'gpencil' is a common abbreviation in the C code.
Other exceptions:
- Leave 'wm' as it's a list of one.
- Leave 'ipo' as is for versioning.
We already have different storages for cddata of verts, edges etc.,
'simply' do the same for the mask flags we use all around Blender code
to request some data, or limit some operation to some layers, etc.
Reason we need this is that some cddata types (like Normals) are
actually shared between verts/polys/loops, and we don’t want to generate
clnors everytime we request vnors!
As a side note, this also does final fix to T59338, which was the
trigger for this patch (need to request computed loop normals for
another mesh than evaluated one).

This was caused by curves pointing to each other
creating a cyclic dependency.
While the dependency graph detects this, generating a mesh for render
recursively generates data which cashes in this case.
Add in a check to detect cyclic links.
Note, this bug exists in 2.7x too - but only crashes on render
since 2.7x didn't use 'for_render' when converting data.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.

This is often invalid, outdated or misleading

It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
This removes a bunch of animation/driver evaluations and recalc flags that
should be redundant in the new depsgraph, and were incorrectly affecting
the evaluated scene in a permanent way.
Still two cases that could be removed if the depsgraph is improved, in
BKE_object_handle_data_update and BKE_cachefile_update_frame.
For physics subframe interpolation there are also still calls to
BKE_object_where_is_calc that should ideally be removed as well, though
they are not known to cause keyframing bugs.

Needed to port operator to use evaluated particle system.
But also changed interface to always show Convert button when
draw type is set to Path (Hair particle system is forced to
be draws as path). This avoid rather expensive lookup on every
redraw, but will show Convert button for un-baked particle
emitter.
Probably, an acceptable compromise.
