As an inherent property of matrix-based transformation math, non-
uniform scaling of a parent bone induces shear into the transform
matrix of any rotated child. Such matrices cannot be cleanly
decomposed into a combination of location/rotation/scale, which
causes issues for rigging and animation tools.
Blender bones have options to exclude rotation and/or scale from the
inherited transformation, but don't have any support for removing the
often undesired shear component. That goal requires replacing simple
parenting with a combination of multiple bones and constraints. The
same is true about the goal of inheriting some scale, but completely
avoiding shear.
This patch replaces the old Inherit Scale checkbox with a enum that
supports multiple options:
* Full: inherit all effects of scale, like with enabled Inherit Scale.
* Fix Shear: removes shear from the final inherited transformation.
The cleanup math is specifically designed to preserve the main
axis of the bone, its length and total volume, and minimally
affect roll on average. It however will not prevent reappearance
of shear due to local rotation of the child or its children.
* Average: inherit uniform scale that represents the parent volume.
This is the simplest foolproof solution that will inherit some
scale without ever causing shear.
* None: completely remove scale and shear.
* None (Legacy): old disabled Inherit Scale checkbox.
This mode does not handle parent shear in any way, so the child
is likely to end up having both scale and shear. It is retained
for backward compatibility.
Since many rigging-related addons access the use_inherit_scale
property from Python, it is retained as a backward compatibility
stub that provides the old functionality.
As a side effect of reworking the code, this also fixes a matrix
multiplication order bug in the Inherit Rotation code, which caused
the parent local scale to be applied in world space. In rigger
opinion this option is useless in production rigs, so this fix
should not be a problem.

Keep ED_armature_transform for RNA Armature.transform
since it operates on edit-bones in edit-mode.
Rename ED_armature_transform_bones to ED_armature_edit_transform
since it wasn't obviously an edit-mode function.
`layer_used` runtime data, which controls the drawing of dots in the UI was not getting refreshed properly.
This used to happen in the drawing code, but was no longer working for reasons explained in:
{rB2b09062defa093a243b5fe64b099accb07b440a3}
The solution was to update each layer manually in the operators:
* ARMATURE_OT_bone_primitive_add
* ARMATURE_OT_delete
* ARMATURE_OT_dissolve
* ARMATURE_OT_fill
* ARMATURE_OT_merge
* ARMATURE_OT_separate
* ARMATURE_OT_bone_layers
* POSE_OT_bone_layers

Apparently the `rna_Armature_editbone_transform_update` function was incomplete because it didn't copy all mirrored transform values.
I also noticed that the same logic seen in `rna_Armature_editbone_transform_update` is also seen in `ED_armature_edit_transform_mirror_update`.
So the solution is expose and use that logic that updates a mirrored bone. Thus deduplicating and fixing T65671.

As far as I can tell, there is no technical reason why the B-Bone
segment thickness scaling can't be separated into two axes. The
only downside is the increase in complexity of the B-Bone settings,
but this is inevitable due to the increase in flexibility.
Updating the file is somewhat complicated though, because F-Curves
and drivers have to be duplicated and updated to the new names.

This removes `VIEW3D_OT_select_or_deselect_all`, adding a
deselect_all option to the `VIEW3D_OT_select` operator.
- Add utility functions to simplify de-selecting all.
- Return true from selection functions when they change the selection
to avoid redundant updates.
- Use arrays of bases when passing objects between selection utility
functions since some users require bases.
- Fix logical error in box selection that updated all objects after
the first hit.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
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.
Mostly rewrite logic which now matches (de)select picking,
share between both operators.
- Support all selection operations (eSelectOp), fixes T59255.
- Add function that selects using 'BONESEL_*' flags & eSelectOp.
This avoids lasso & box select having to handle selection flushing.
- Fix strange behavior with lasso where selecting a bone in a chain
would only select the tip (from 2.7x).
We had two different ways of doing it, SurfaceDeform and LaplacianDeform
would do it through a special modifier stack evaluation triggered from
binding operator, while MeshDeform would do it through a regular
depsgraph update/eval (also triggered from its binding op).
This enforces the later to search back for orig modifier data inside
modifier code (to apply binding on that one, and not on useless CoW
one).
Besides the question of safety about modifying orig data from threaded
despgraph (that was *probably* OK, but think it's bad idea in general),
it's much better to have a common way of doing that kind of things.
For now it remains rather dodgy, but at least it's reasonably consistent
and safe now.
This commit also fixes a potential memleak from binding process of
MeshDeform, and does some general cleanup a bit.
Bring back per-viewport localview. This is based on Blender 2.79.
We have a limit of 16 different local view viewports.
We are using both the numpad /, as well as the regular /.
Missing features:
* Hack to make sure lights are always visible.
* Make rendered mode with external engines to support this as well
(probably just need to support this in the RNA iterators).
* Support over 16 viewports by taking existing viewports out of local view.
The code can use a cleanup pass in the future to unify the test to see
if an object is visible (or we can use TESTBASE in more places).
The rest shape of B-Bones is actually affected by custom handles or
the default connected parent/child mechanism. Ignoring these effects
thus leads to the edit mode shape being different from the actual
rest pose.
This splits the b_bone_spline_setup function that is used to compute
the correct rest and pose shape from pose channels into two parts,
and applies the data structure independent half to edit mode.
In order to access the custom handle settings in Edit Mode, they are
moved to Bone and EditBone, while the bPoseChannel fields are downgraded
in status to a cache for performance. Also, instead of flags, introduce
an enum to specify the handle operation modes, so that new ones could
be added later.

Custom handle settings actually affect the B-Bone rest shape,
so they should be changed in Edit mode rather than Pose mode.
This is necessary to be able to display the correct rest shape
of the bone in Edit Mode.
Also, instead of flags, introduce an enum to specify the handle
operation modes, so that new ones could be added later.

Notes:
* Really need to address RNA setters case, end up adding way too much
G.main here these days... :/
* Added Main pointer into bAnimContext, helps a lot in anim code ;)
This modifier still has issues that are not related to this port:
- While editing the deformation mesh, the deformed mesh doesn't update.
This update only happens after exiting edit mode, making editing
cumbersome.
- Binding doesn't work yet. It works fine when binding in master and
loading pre-bound in 2.8. This was also an issue before this port, and
will be investigated separately.
While the feature is interesting, it's not much from what we can tell.
Retargeting is an important feature but needs
to fit in better with typical animation work-flows.
See: T52809
The depsgraph was always created within a fixed evaluation context. Passing
both risks the depsgraph and evaluation context not matching, and it
complicates the Python API where we'd have to expose both which is not so
easy to understand.
This also removes the global evaluation context in main, which assumed there
to be a single active scene and view layer.

This adds initial multi-object editing support.
- Selected objects are used when entering edit & pose modes.
- Selection & tools work on all objects however many tools need porting
See: T54641 for remaining tasks.
Indentation will be done separately.
See patch: D3101
- Wasn't clear which functions handle edit-bones.
- Mixed both ebone and edit_bone in names.
- Didn't use ED_armature_* prefix for public API.
See P655 to apply to branches.
- Undo that changes modes currently asserts,
since undo is now screen data.
Most likely we will change how object mode and workspaces work
since it's not practical/maintainable at the moment.
- Removed view_layer from particle settings
(wasn't needed and complicated undo).
