Only the volume drawing part is really finished and exposed to the user. Hair
plugs into the existing hair rendering code and is fairly straightforward. The
pointcloud drawing is a hack using overlays rather than Eevee and workbench.
The most tricky part for volume rendering is the case where each volume grid
has a different transform, which requires an additional matrix in the shader
and non-trivial logic in Eevee volume drawing. In the common case were all the
transforms match we don't use the additional per-grid matrix in the shader.

Only Metaballs are left unsupported.
However, the implementation does not match 100% with cycles which converts
all objects to meshes.

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 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.

Support for UV Stretching overlay during multi object editing. The
VBO now holds the ratios per fase. In the shader these ratios will
be compared against the global ratios. The global rations are created
from all selected objects.
The current implementation does not fit well with the draw module. The
plan is to move the drawing of other spaces towards the draw manager what
leads to a better fit. Currently the details on this solution is unclear
but this requirement will become an attentionpoint in the future design.

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 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.
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.

This is work in progress. Look is not final.
This align data VBO data structure used for edti cage drawing to the one

We no longer use barycentric coords to draw the lines an just rasterize
line primitives for edge drawing. This is a bit slower than using the
previous fast method but faster than the "correct" (edge artifact free)
method. This also make the code way simpler.

This also touches the UV batch code to share as much render data as
possible. The code also prepare for edit cage "modified" drawing cage (with

This removes code duplication and put an end to the old "create at request"
batch creation.
Also it uses the same vbo as the uv layer used for shading. Reducing VRAM
usage.
Also fixes the modified uv display in uv edit mode.
This is in order to allow more spaces to have their batches created at the
same time and sharing the batches.
This is part of the effort fo making the drawing code more optimized. This
commit however should not introduce any difference.
This commit bypass the aspect ratio correction for angle stretch display
but this should be fixed in the next commit.
This makes it more future proof and remove baked id offset inside the vbos.
Instead we add the offset as a uniform. This makes it possible to reuse
the vbos instead of discarding them all the time.
Also using batch request may reduce batches creation time.
This now only upload data per loops to the GPU, making use of index buffer
to draw polygon. This make use of the vertex cache, speed up renders
and saves a lot of vram.
Update performance is also slightly faster and can even be improved further
by updating only uvs or vcol independently.
This commits breaks texture paint batches. It will be added back in another
commit.
This changes a bit the batches data structure. Instead of using one
vbo per material we use one for all material and use index buffers for
selecting the correct triangles.
This is less optimized than before but has potential to become more
optimized by merging the wireframe data vbo into the shading one.
Also the index buffers are not strictly necessary and could be just
ranges inside the buffer. But this needs more adding things inside
GPUIndexBuf.
Shaded triangles are not yet implemented (request from gpumaterials).
This also changes the mechanism to draw curve normals to make it not
dependant on normal size display. This way different viewport can
reuse the same batch.
This makes it possible for engines to ask for batches and only fill their
data after all engine populate functions have run.
This means that, when creating the batches data we already know all the
batches that are needed for this redraw and the needed data.
This allows for less redundant data preparation and better attrib masking.
Ideally, we should run all viewports populate function before executing
the batch construction but this is not the scope of this patch.
Conversion from the old request method will be progressive and both can
coexist (see uses of mesh_create_pos_and_nor()).
The shader is way simpler and run way faster on lower end hardware
(2x faster on intel HD5000) but did not notice any improvement on AMD Vega.
This also adds a few changes to the way the wireframes are drawn:
- the slider is more linearly progressive.
- optimize display shows all wires and progressively decrease "inner" wires
intensity. This is subject to change in the future.
- text/surface/metaballs support is pretty rough. More work needs to be done.
This remove the optimization introduced in f1975a4639.
This also removes the GPU side "sharpness" calculation which means that
animated meshes with wireframe display will update slower.
The CPU sharpness calculation has still room for optimization. Also
it is not excluded that GPU calculation can be added back as a
separate preprocessing pass (saving the computation result [compute or
feedback]).
The goal here was to have more speed for static objects and remove
the dependency of having buffer textures with triangle count. This is
preparation work for multithreading the whole DRW manager.
This only happens after a certain threshold.
We sort triangles into 2 bins (start and end of the buffer) based on a
threshold and just draw the start bin if the wireframe slider is low enough.
This optimization is disabled for deformed meshes.
This should help resolve (to some extent) T58188.
Fixes T57931 Particle weight edit mode is not supported.
There is a bug that prevent refresh of the toolsettings on which is based
the weight / non-weight display selection (see T58086).
In 2.79 hiding works in paint modes with selection enabled,
so it is a missing feature. This implements it in texture
paint overlays and in workbench base shading.
