Problem is that the RenderEngines will change the RenderData cfra when
rendering (when time remapping is used -- at least workbench/eevee/
gpencil do a combination of BKE_scene_frame_get() plus
RE_GetCameraWindow() which alters the RenderData cfra).
Later on in the pipeline, the Compositor will use this RenderData cfra
to determine the output file name for the FileOutput node. (In contrast
to this, the 'regular' Output will use the Scene's RenderData -- not the
Render's -- cfra [which hasnt been altered])
It is not entirely clear why RE_GetCameraWindow was setting the cfra on
the Render, but it appears to be legacy OGL rendering related and is not
needed anymore.
Removing this will keep the cfra as needed for the Compositor FileOutput
node.
When using grease pencil in a stereo rendering the grease pencil objects are
only visible in the left eye. In the viewport it renders both.
Issue is related that `DRW_render_gpencil` only renders a single view. But
`DRW_render_to_image` renders all views. This patch puts this in a loop to
render both eyes.

This commit is a full refactor of the grease pencil modules including Draw Engine, Modifiers, VFX, depsgraph update, improvements in operators and conversion of Sculpt and Weight paint tools to real brushes.
Also, a huge code cleanup has been done at all levels.
Thanks to @fclem for his work and yo @pepeland and @mendio for the testing and help in the development.

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.

When doing image rendering with grease pencil, it reused the view of
workbench or EEVEE. These views might be offsetted due to TAA.
This shifted the view a tiny bit. We will not reset the view in between
render engines.

Grease Pencil already reset the default view so the draw_manager wouldn't assert. During multi view rendering the same assert still happened. This patch will reset the default view when starting to render a new view.

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.
Object visibility is now handled by the depsgraph iterator, but this API
was incomplete as it made no distinction for visibility of the object itself,
particles and generated instances.
The depsgraph iterator API now includes information about which part of the
object is visible, and this is used by Cycles to replace the old custom logic.
Cycles and EEVEE visibility should now be consistent, which unfortunately does
means some subtle compatibility breakage for both.
Fixes T58956, T58202, T59284.

This is the result of nearly two years of development and I want thanks firstly the other members of the grease pencil team: Daniel M. Lara, Matias Mendiola and Joshua Leung for their support, ideas and to keep working in the project all the time, without them this project had been impossible.
Also, I want thanks other Blender developers for their help, advices and to be there always to help me, and specially to Clément Foucault, Dalai Felinto, Pablo Vázquez and Campbell Barton.
