Replace old color pipeline which was supporting linear/sRGB color spaces
only with OpenColorIO-based pipeline.
This introduces two configurable color spaces:
- Input color space for images and movie clips. This space is used to convert
images/movies from color space in which file is saved to Blender's linear
space (for float images, byte images are not internally converted, only input
space is stored for such images and used later).
This setting could be found in image/clip data block settings.
- Display color space which defines space in which particular display is working.
This settings could be found in scene's Color Management panel.
When render result is being displayed on the screen, apart from converting image
to display space, some additional conversions could happen.
This conversions are:
- View, which defines tone curve applying before display transformation.
These are different ways to view the image on the same display device.
For example it could be used to emulate film view on sRGB display.
- Exposure affects on image exposure before tone map is applied.
- Gamma is post-display gamma correction, could be used to match particular
display gamma.
- RGB curves are user-defined curves which are applying before display
transformation, could be used for different purposes.
All this settings by default are only applying on render result and does not
affect on other images. If some particular image needs to be affected by this
transformation, "View as Render" setting of image data block should be set to
truth. Movie clips are always affected by all display transformations.
This commit also introduces configurable color space in which sequencer is
working. This setting could be found in scene's Color Management panel and
it should be used if such stuff as grading needs to be done in color space
different from sRGB (i.e. when Film view on sRGB display is use, using VD16
space as sequencer's internal space would make grading working in space
which is close to the space using for display).
Some technical notes:
- Image buffer's float buffer is now always in linear space, even if it was
created from 16bit byte images.
- Space of byte buffer is stored in image buffer's rect_colorspace property.
- Profile of image buffer was removed since it's not longer meaningful.
- OpenGL and GLSL is supposed to always work in sRGB space. It is possible
to support other spaces, but it's quite large project which isn't so
much important.
- Legacy Color Management option disabled is emulated by using None display.
It could have some regressions, but there's no clear way to avoid them.
- If OpenColorIO is disabled on build time, it should make blender behaving
in the same way as previous release with color management enabled.

Thanks to Xavier Thomas, Lukas Toene for initial work on OpenColorIO
integration and to Brecht van Lommel for some further development and code/
usecase review!
- Re-arrange functions in headers and implementation file to make them
more grouped by entity they're operating with. Also order of functions
in implementation file should match order of functions in header for
easier navigation.
- Rename some functions to match conventions of naming public functions.
- Some code de-duplication, still some room for improvements tho.
- Split main 2D tracking functions into smaller steps to make it more clear.
Accidentally OpenMP was disabled in some of previous commits, re-enable it.
Added option to use Grease Pencil datablock as a mask for pattern
when doing motion tracking. Option could be found in Tracking Settings
panel.
All strokes would be rasterized separately from each other and every
stroke is treating as a closed spline.
Also added option to apply a mask on track preview which is situated
just after B/B/W channel button under track preview.
===========================================
Major list of changes done in tomato branch:
- Add a planar tracking implementation to libmv
This adds a new planar tracking implementation to libmv. The
tracker is based on Ceres[1], the new nonlinear minimizer that
myself and Sameer released from Google as open source. Since
the motion model is more involved, the interface is
different than the RegionTracker interface used previously
in Blender.
The start of a C API in libmv-capi.{cpp,h} is also included.
- Migrate from pat_{min,max} for markers to 4 corners representation
Convert markers in the movie clip editor / 2D tracker from using
pat_min and pat_max notation to using the a more general, 4-corner
representation.
There is still considerable porting work to do; in particular
sliding from preview widget does not work correct for rotated
markers.
All other areas should be ported to new representation:
* Added support of sliding individual corners. LMB slide + Ctrl
would scale the whole pattern
* S would scale the whole marker, S-S would scale pattern only
* Added support of marker's rotation which is currently rotates
only patterns around their centers or all markers around median,
Rotation or other non-translation/scaling transformation of search
area doesn't make sense.
* Track Preview widget would display transformed pattern which
libmv actually operates with.
- "Efficient Second-order Minimization" for the planar tracker
This implements the "Efficient Second-order Minimization"
scheme, as supported by the existing translation tracker.
This increases the amount of per-iteration work, but
decreases the number of iterations required to converge and
also increases the size of the basin of attraction for the
optimization.
- Remove the use of the legacy RegionTracker API from Blender,
and replaces it with the new TrackRegion API. This also
adds several features to the planar tracker in libmv:
* Do a brute-force initialization of tracking similar to "Hybrid"
mode in the stable release, but using all floats. This is slower
but more accurate. It is still necessary to evaluate if the
performance loss is worth it. In particular, this change is
necessary to support high bit depth imagery.
* Add support for masks over the search window. This is a step
towards supporting user-defined tracker masks. The tracker masks
will make it easy for users to make a mask for e.g. a ball.
Not exposed into interface yet/
* Add Pearson product moment correlation coefficient checking (aka
"Correlation" in the UI. This causes tracking failure if the
tracked patch is not linearly related to the template.
* Add support for warping a few points in addition to the supplied
points. This is useful because the tracking code deliberately
does not expose the underlying warp representation. Instead,
warps are specified in an aparametric way via the correspondences.
- Replace the old style tracker configuration panel with the
new planar tracking panel. From a users perspective, this means:
* The old "tracking algorithm" picker is gone. There is only 1
algorithm now. We may revisit this later, but I would much
prefer to have only 1 algorithm. So far no optimization work
has been done so the speed is not there yet.
* There is now a dropdown to select the motion model. Choices:
* Translation
* Translation, rotation
* Translation, scale
* Translation, rotation, scale
* Affine
* Perspective
* The old "Hybrid" mode is gone; instead there is a toggle to
enable or disable translation-only tracker initialization. This
is the equivalent of the hyrbid mode before, but rewritten to work
with the new planar tracking modes.
* The pyramid levels setting is gone. At a future date, the planar
tracker will decide to use pyramids or not automatically. The
pyramid setting was ultimately a mistake; with the brute force
initialization it is unnecessary.
- Add light-normalized tracking
Added the ability to normalize patterns by their average value while
tracking, to make them invariant to global illumination changes.

- optionally display the histogram as lines (not filled areas).
- expand the enum for faster access.
- keep the sample line displayed after doing the line sample (running again clears).
Any identifier that looks like an OpenGL identifier, but isn't, causes a false alarm by the glreport.py tool. Most of these were in comments so I just rephrased the comments. There were a couple of static functions/macros that were easy enough to rename. Only the glTexco and glIndex fields of the DMVertexAttribs struct was public and had non-local uses.
- Fixed tooltip displaying for track sequence forwards in clip editor
- Corrected detection of 8 tracks so it wouldn't count tracks disabled
on keyframes.
- Scale track preview to actual track widget size instead of scaling the
whole preview image with given zoom ratio, so no extra memory needed to
store zoomed margin would be used.
- Track's statistics text will fit pattern position instead of search if
marker is disabled on current frame.
- Fixed toggle selection operator if selected track is hidden due to
"Hide Disabled" policy.
- Clamping of image on boundaries now happens nicely
- Looks like to prevent dark edges on image boundary when doing
bicubic interpolation, margin should be 3px. Maybe somebody can verify this?
