When using duplicate linked meshes, objects that are not in edit-mode will be drawn as
it is in edit mode, when another object with the same mesh is in edit mode.
This will not be the case when one of the objects are influenced by modifiers. The change
reflects more how it was done in Blender 2.79.
The current change introduces a draw manager method that checks in detail who is responsible
for the drawing (render engine or overlay engine). If the edit mesh is not the original or
the object that is drawn doesn't draw the original mesh the object will be drawn by the render
engine.
Known Limitation of this patch is that the rendering outside edit mode doesn't reflect the
latest changes until the user switches between object and edit mode. When there are no
modifiers in use, the updating is done immediately.
IMO this would be sufficient for blender 2.82, it also fixes parts of T72733.
The updating of the surface batches requires more development and is
post-poned for now.

Instead of changing the modifiers behavior, we make sure to always use
the data->totcol instead of the ob->totcol. Also we centralize getting
this number to avoid future issues.

This adds some kind of dashing to the tube and cone limits. Although the
dashing is in object space and is not a good as old dashing. But it is
the least time consuming and least complex solution.
This way we remove the need for the srgb boolean uniform and a lot of code complexity. However, mesh update is going to be a bit slower.
I did not benchmark the performance impact.
This also fix a typo in draw_cache_impl_particles.c and fix hair not using vertex color in workbench.

Due to the refactoring of the overlay engine the draw caches were
changed. The sphere batch used to have positions and normals. After the
refactoring it didn't had the normals anymore. The normals are needed
for shading. As they were not there the look dev spheres were rendered
black.
This change add the `nor` attribute to `DRW_cache_sphere_get` batch.

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.

For clarity sake, the batch cache now uses exclusively per Loop attributes.
While this is a bit of a waste of VRAM (for the few case where per vert
attribs are enough) it reduces the complexity and amount of overall VBO
to update in general situations.
This patch also makes the VertexBuffers filling multithreaded. This make
the update of dense meshes a bit faster. The main bottleneck is the
IndexBuffers update which cannot be multithreaded efficiently (have to
increment a counter and/or do a final sorting pass).
We introduce the concept of "extract" functions/step.
All extract functions are executed in one thread each and if possible,
using multiple thread for looping over all elements.

This type of indices is not natively supported on modern GPU and
gives warning on some implementation. The memory savings it
provides is also quite minimal and unlikely to be visible on
nowadays hardware.
This remove some uneeded struct members and makes primitive
restart always enabled by default. This can be broken by addons
if they are not careful enough but many other states have this
problem.
Also leverage GL_PRIMITIVE_RESTART_FIXED_INDEX if
ARB_ES3_compatibility is supported. This removes all API calls
to change restart index depending on indices length.
This is in order to have VAO handled by thoses batches instead of using a
common VAO. Even if the VAO has no importance in these case using a batch
will help when transitioning to Vulkan.

Currently the settings are part of the scene toolsettings. What makes sense,
for 3d printing, but does not fit well with the per viewport blender 2.80

Force Displist to Mesh conversion if there is any modifier.
This is until we find a better way to store the batches per objects.
Also fix draw cache functions that were not returning final mesh edges.
This is only working for shading batches for the moment and only if some Custom data layer are not needed anymore.
The collection rate is hardcoded at 60 sec but could be exposed to the user.
This system can be extended and discard most unused batches in the future.
This commit is in prevision of removing BKE_MESH_BATCH_DIRTY_SHADING when changing shader parameters.
When using subsurf (and other modifiers) the edit flags are not
propagated correctly. Currently we assume to read the edit flags
from the original object which is kind off hinding the real issue.
Modifiers use `mesh_new_nomain_from_template_ex` to create a copy
from an existing mesh. this method is only used by modifiers. So
by placing this we will make sure that editmesh is propagated.

Objects that internally uses DispList do not cast shadow in the workbench.
Their outline is also not visible in object mode. The reason for this is
that edge detection was not implemented for Display Lists. This patch will
implement the edge detection.

Note this was broken even in 2.7x.
We had a different logic for the plane wire, as for the plane itself.
And they were both wrong when changing the camera shift or the stereo
pivot.
Both of their logic is now unified and correct.
Also I had to create a new gpu batch for the quad wires, since there is
no state that allows me to filter out the geometry, and the square gpu
batch is quite different than the quad one (2d x 3d and orientation).
