- Use smooth normals to displace in Above Surface mode.
- Add an option to align an axis to the normal in the constraint.
I've seen people request the alignment feature, and it seems useful.
For the actual aligning I use the damped track logic.
In order to conveniently keep mesh data needed for normal
computation together, a new data structure is introduced.

There were a few copies of the same few lines in depsgraph build code,
so it seems to be logical to introduce a function for it, and make it
accessible from C code for completeness.
As an example, register the mask needs of the Data Transfer modifier.
This commit includes several performance, stability, and reliability
improvements to cloth collisions.
Most notably:
* The implementation of a new self-collisions system.
* Multithreading of collision detection.
* Implementation of single sided collisions and normal overrides.
* Replacement of the `plNearestPoints` function from Bullet with a
dedicated solution.
Further, this also includes several bug fixes, and algorithmic
improvements.

The main goal of this patch is to cleanup the interface of every modifier. More specifically the interface of modifiers should be DerivedMesh-free.
Internally some modifiers still use DerivedMesh. However I think it is better when the wrappers are in the modifiers so that higher level functions can use the simplified interface.
This patch removes the applyModifier_DM and applyModifierEM_DM functions. In a previous patch (rB3614d9d) the other functions that used DerivedMesh have been removed.

Terms get/set don't make much sense when casting values.
Name macros so the conversion is obvious,
use common prefix for easier completion.
- GET_INT_FROM_POINTER -> POINTER_AS_INT
- SET_INT_IN_POINTER -> POINTER_FROM_INT
- GET_UINT_FROM_POINTER -> POINTER_AS_UINT
- SET_UINT_IN_POINTER -> POINTER_FROM_UINT
Allows to go to sculpt mode, do brush strokes, get out of sculpt mode
and have deformation preserved.
The issues currently is that the current implementation of CCG
storage is created from the limit surface, without displacement
taken into account. It is trivial to get displaced coordinates,
but it is more tricky to get displaced normals. This is something
to be solved next.
Another limitation is that this only works for sculpting at a maximal
multires level. There is code to be done to support propagation
of displacement onto a higher levels.
Attempts to substitude CCGDM with an OpenSubdiv based structure
which has less abstraction levels. The missing part in this
substitude is a face pointers which old CCGDM/multires code was
using to stitch faces (averaging boundaries).
Another curial bit missing: "reshaping" of multires CD_MDISPS
to the state of new PBVH grids.
The new code is only available when OpenSubdiv modifier is
enabled (WITH_OPENSUBDIV_MODIFIER=ON) and with debug value of
128. This is so this WIP code is not interfering with current
production machines in the studio.

This commit adds a new armature modifier for grease pencil. The deformations are done reusing the mesh deform routines.
There is also a new operator in weight paint mode to help the artist to generate weights base on armatures. This operator is required because 2D animation workflow is not equal to meshes when parent an object to armatures.
In the drawing engine has been added the option to handle the Fade object parameter used in armatures to see the strokes while move the bones.
When rename bones, all related data of grease pencil is renamed too. This not only affect new armature code, but also layers parented and hook modifiers.
Thanks @aligorith for his review and help.
