Previously, mesh boundaries were relaxed as any other vertex, which was
causing artifacts and unwanted deformation. In order to prevent this,
the mesh filter was using the automasking system to lock the boundary
vertices, which was hacked into the tool. For the brush, the only
solution was to enable boundary automasking to lock those vertices
in plance.
Now the relax vertex function slides the boundary vertices along the
mesh boundary edges, relaxing all the topology correctly while
preserving the shape of the mesh. The automasking hack in the relax
mesh filter was also removed as now vertices slide correctly along
the boundary.

Threaded Sculpt is now always enabled by default. If it causes
performance problems compared single threaded sculpt it should be
considered a bug.

Sculpt Vertex Colors is a painting system that runs inside sculpt mode, reusing all its tools and optimizations. This provides much better performance, easier to maintain code and more advanced features (new brush engine, filters, symmetry options, masks and face sets compatibility...). This is also the initial step for future features like vertex painting in Multires and brushes that can sculpt and paint at the same time.
This commit includes:
- SCULPT_UNDO_COLOR for undo support in sculpt mode
- SCULPT_UPDATE_COLOR and PBVH flags and rendering
- Sculpt Color API functions
- Sculpt capability for sculpt tools (only enabled in the Paint Brush for now)
- Rendering support in workbench (default to Sculpt Vertex Colors except in Vertex Paint)
- Conversion operator between MPropCol (Sculpt Vertex Colors) and MLoopCol (Vertex Paint)
- Remesher reprojection in the Voxel Remehser
- Paint Brush and Smear Brush with color smoothing in alt-smooth mode
- Parameters for the new brush engine (density, opacity, flow, wet paint mixing, tip scale) implemented in Sculpt Vertex Colors
- Color Filter
- Color picker (uses S shortcut, replaces smooth)
- Color selector in the top bar

This operator performs an edit operation in the active face set defined
by the cursor position and updates the visibility. For now, it has a
Grow and Shrink operations, similar to Select More/Less in edit mode or
to the mask filter Grow/Shrink modes. More operations can be added in
the future.
In multires, this updates the visibility of an entire face from the base
mesh at once, which makes it very convenient to edit the visible area
without manipulating the face set directly.

If all vertices in the sculpt are visible create the new face set and
update the default face set. This is the same as disabling the overlay,
so it will not have the extra performance cost of rendering a colored
face set twice that gives no information.

Operators should almost always implement exec() so that they can work without
user event input. In this case there was no reason to have invoke() at all
since no event is needed.
This implements the restore function for Draw Face Sets and Layer, which
don't affect coordinates or masks directly. This is needed for the
anchored and dot brush strokes.
Layer frees the current displacement and a new one is created on each
stroke sample. Draw Face Sets copies the data back from the first undo
node to the mesh datalayer.

This patch enables TBB as the default task scheduler. TBB stands for Threading Building Blocks and is developed by Intel. The library contains several threading patters. This patch maps blenders BLI_task_* function to their counterpart. After this patch we can add more patterns. A promising one is TBB:graph that can be used for depsgraph, draw manager and compositor.
Performance changes depends on the actual hardware. It was tested on different hardwares from laptops to workstations and we didn't detected any downgrade of the performance.

The operator was disabled when it was added because Face Sets were not
