This commit restores support for Motion Path drawing in 2.8 (as it wasn't ported over
to the new draw engines earlier, and the existing space_view3d/drawanimviz.c code was
removed during the Blender Internal removal).
Notes:
* Motion Paths are now implemented as an overlay (enabled by default).
Therefore, you can turn all of them on/off from the "Overlays" popover
* By and large, we have kept the same draw style as was used in 2.7
Further changes can happen later following further design work.
* One change from 2.7 is that thicker lines are used by default (2px vs 1px)
Todo's:
* There are some bad-level calls introduced here (i.e. the actgroup_to_keylist() stuff).
These were introduced to optimise drawing performance (by avoiding full keyframes -> keylist
conversion step on each drawcall). Instead, this has been moved to the calculation step
(in blenkernel). Soon, there will be some cleanups/improvements with those functions,
so until then, we'll keep the bad level calls.

Since the viewport header now supports transparency, text on pulldowns
can be hard to read if their color matches the viewport content.
Background is drawn using the 'inner' theme color, that was unused until now.
In some heavy rigs matrix inverse can be 10% of computation time. This
reduces it to 2% by using Eigen's optimized 4x4 matrix inverse and SSE
matrix multiplication.
- Uses the roughness setting of the basic eevee material
- renamed gloss_mir to roughness
- set default of roughness to 0.25
- renamed ray_mirror to metallic
- cleaned up material rna (BI mirror struct)
- use BLINN phong model
- normalize incoming/outgoing specular light
- when using camera oriented studiolight, the SolidLight will be used
for specular highlights
- EXPERIMENT: when in world oriented studiolight only the shadow direction will be used.
- change the settings of the internal light to make scenes more
readable
Note there is some talk about changing the position of this (which would be strange in the image editor by the way,
since there we use the bottom for the result of the current pixel when dragging the mouse).
However first I wanted to fix this regardless.
