This finished old standing TODO which was attempting to
ignore objects of all invisible collections.
The difference here is that we remove invisible bases from
view layers. This guarantees that the evaluated state is
consistent and does not reference original objects.
Among all the lines moved around, the general idea is quite simple.
Actually, there are two ideas implemented there.
First one, is when object itself is tagged for update, we tag its
point cache component for evaluation, which makes it so point cache
is properly reset. We do it implicitly because otherwise we'll need
to go everywhere and add explicit tag in almost all the properties.
Second thing is, we link all collider and force fields to a point
cache component using special type of link. This type of link only
allows flush if change is caused by a user update. This way reset
does not happen when change is caused due to animation, but will
properly happen when user causes indirect change to the objects
which are part of physics simulation.
NLA strips are users of their action, so we need to pass along ID
management flags.
This commit also cleans up a bit things by passing along ID_CREATE/COPY
flags instead of dummy booleans...
The idea of those flags is to avoid evaluation of operations
which are not needed to bring visible objects to an up to date
state.
Previously, dependency graph attempted to do combine those
into an ID level flag. In practice it proved to be rather
tricky, since there could be dependency cycles on ID level
which will not exist on component level.
If something is a list of data, it is to be called list, and data
is to be called data. No need to call list a data and data a weird
two letter abbreviation.
Clarity is our friend!
The title says it all actually, the idea is to speedup the following case:
- Visible duplicator of a restricted collection (reported as T56512),
One of the questionable change is that none of the view layer bases is
ignored now. This ensures corresponding objects will have copy-on-write
component evaluated, making it possible to access those pointers. The
evaluation of those objects is skipped.

This separate probe rendering from viewport rendering, making possible to
run the baking in another thread (non blocking and faster).
The baked lighting is saved in the blend file. Nothing needs to be
recomputed on load.
There is a few missing bits / bugs:
- Cache cannot be saved to disk as a separate file, it is saved in the DNA
for now making file larger and memory usage higher.
- Auto update only cubemaps does update the grids (bug).
- Probes cannot be updated individually (considered as dynamic).
- Light Cache cannot be (re)generated during render.
Make it more reliable and predictable way of getting pointer to
an original mesh which came from copy-on-write engine.
Related change: made it (hopefully) more clear name for flags.
After discussion with Sergey and Dalai, we have decided to remove
this option completely. We're getting to the point where it is almost
impossible to really use 2.8 without COW, and keeping the old option
running ends up diverting dev resources away towards tracking down
and fixing problems with a parallel system that will be going away.
This introduces a new depsgraph API for getting updated datablocks,
rather than getting it from bpy.data.
* depsgraph.ids_updated gives a list of all datablocks in the depsgraph
which have been updated.
* depsgraph.id_type_updated('TYPE') is true if any datablock of the given
type has been added, removed or modified.
More API updates are coming to properly handle multiple depsgraphs and
finer update granularity, but this should make Cycles work again.
This is a first step to have correspondence of legacy derivedDeform
within a new formulation. Only base ground for now to support file
reading, copy-on-write remapping and such.
