In general, I could not find a reason executing from the python console
should not do an Undo push. Running a script from the Text Editor does
this as well and this seems generally useful.
Without an Undo push, one can easily run into situations were IDs have
been added or removed and undo on would then cause trouble (e.g. first
selection then bpy.ops.object.duplicate() -- this crashed as reported in
T86293 -- duplicate does not get its own undo push because it is not the
last op in the list, wm->op_undo_depth is not zero). This has changed
with the Undo refactor, so in essence the root cause is the same as
T77557, Legacy Undo does not suffer from the crash (but misses
the generally useful undo push from the console still)
Now add Undo to CONSOLE_OT_execute bl_options ('UNDO_GROUPED' seems more
appropriate than plain 'UNDO' since pasting multiple lines of code will
call CONSOLE_OT_execute multiple times in a row).

Following with the changes included to interpolate strokes of different number of points, a full review has been done in the interpolation tools.
* Interpolate now is a tool and not an operator. It was not logic to have this tool as a button.
* Interpolate tool parameters have been moved to topbar.
* Interpolate popover has been removed from topbar and interpolate `Sequence` operator has been moved to grease pencil menu.
* Interpolate Sequence now include a Redo panel.
* Interpolate tool now allows to select the strokes by pairs. This allows to interpolate any stroke with any stroke and not as before that it was only possible by drawing order. If no stroke is selected, the interpolation is done as before.
* Now is possible interpolate again if a previous keyframe exist. Before, it was impossible to interpolate two times in same frame and this made impossible to do the interpolation by groups of frames.
* New automatic option to `Flip strokes` if the stroke and end are not in the right position. Also the flip can be set manually for corner cases.
* Cleanup of menus related to interpolate.
* Fixed some bugs and removed parameters from scene because now all are tool or operator contained.
* Some code cleanup and function renames.

The logic to remove one Python module before installing another
only worked in simple cases where a file replaced a file.
- Installing a single file add-on over a Python package with the same
name caused an error as the directory isn't empty.
- Removing existing module directories from the zip-file did nothing
as the directories from the zip-file that end with a slash were
compared with directories from `os.listdir` that don't.
- `module_filesystem_remove` assumed ZipFile.namelist() was a list of
files in the root of the zip-file when it's a list of all files.
While I couldn't find any bugs caused by this, it performed checks
that don't make sense, comparing files at different depths of the
file-system.

This is a complete refactor over the old system. The goal was to increase quality
first and then have something more flexible and optimised.
|{F9603145} | {F9603142}|{F9603147}|
This fixes issues we had with the old system which were:
- Too much overdraw (low performance).
- Not enough precision in render targets (hugly color banding/drifting).
- Poor resolution near in-focus regions.
- Wrong support of orthographic views.
- Missing alpha support in viewport.
- Missing bokeh shape inversion on foreground field.
- Issues on some GPUs. (see T72489) (But I'm sure this one will have other issues as well heh...)
- Fix T81092
I chose Unreal's Diaphragm DOF as a reference / goal implementation.
It is well described in the presentation "A Life of a Bokeh" by Guillaume Abadie.
You can check about it here https://epicgames.ent.box.com/s/s86j70iamxvsuu6j35pilypficznec04
Along side the main implementation we provide a way to increase the quality by jittering the
camera position for each sample (the ones specified under the Sampling tab).
The jittering is dividing the actual post processing dof radius so that it fills the undersampling.
The user can still add more overblur to have a noiseless image, but reducing bokeh shape sharpness.
Effect of overblur (left without, right with):
| {F9603122} | {F9603123}|
The actual implementation differs a bit:
- Foreground gather implementation uses the same "ring binning" accumulator as background
but uses a custom occlusion method. This gives the problem of inflating the foreground elements
when they are over background or in-focus regions.
This is was a hard decision but this was preferable to the other method that was giving poor
opacity masks for foreground and had other more noticeable issues. Do note it is possible
to improve this part in the future if a better alternative is found.
- Use occlusion texture for foreground. Presentation says it wasn't really needed for them.
- The TAA stabilisation pass is replace by a simple neighborhood clamping at the reduce copy
stage for simplicity.
- We don't do a brute-force in-focus separate gather pass. Instead we just do the brute force
pass during resolve. Using the separate pass could be a future optimization if needed but
might give less precise results.
- We don't use compute shaders at all so shader branching might not be optimal. But performance
is still way better than our previous implementation.
- We mainly rely on density change to fix all undersampling issues even for foreground (which
is something the reference implementation is not doing strangely).
Remaining issues (not considered blocking for me):
- Slight defocus stability: Due to slight defocus bruteforce gather using the bare scene color,
highlights are dilated and make convergence quite slow or imposible when using jittered DOF
(or gives )
- ~~Slight defocus inflating: There seems to be a 1px inflation discontinuity of the slight focus
convolution compared to the half resolution. This is not really noticeable if using jittered
camera.~~ Fixed
- Foreground occlusion approximation is a bit glitchy and gives incorrect result if the
a defocus foreground element overlaps a farther foreground element. Note that this is easily
mitigated using the jittered camera position.
|{F9603114}|{F9603115}|{F9603116}|
- Foreground is inflating, not revealing background. However this avoids some other bugs too
as discussed previously. Also mitigated with jittered camera position.
|{F9603130}|{F9603129}|
- Sensor vertical fit is still broken (does not match cycles).
- Scattred bokeh shapes can be a bit strange at polygon vertices. This is due to the distance field
stored in the Bokeh LUT which is not rounded at the edges. This is barely noticeable if the
shape does not rotate.
- ~~Sampling pattern of the jittered camera position is suboptimal. Could try something like hammersley
or poisson disc distribution.~~Used hexaweb sampling pattern which is not random but has better
stability and overall coverage.
- Very large bokeh (> 300 px) can exhibit undersampling artifact in gather pass and quite a bit of
bleeding. But at this size it is preferable to use jittered camera position.
Codewise the changes are pretty much self contained and each pass are well documented.
However the whole pipeline is quite complex to understand from bird's-eye view.
Notes:
- There is the possibility of using arbitrary bokeh texture with this implementation.
However implementation is a bit involved.
- Gathering max sample count is hardcoded to avoid to deal with shader variations. The actual
max sample count is already quite high but samples are not evenly distributed due to the
ring binning method.
- While this implementation does not need 32bit/channel textures to render correctly it does use
many other textures so actual VRAM usage is higher than previous method for viewport but less
for render. Textures are reused to avoid many allocations.
- Bokeh LUT computation is fast and done for each redraw because it can be animated. Also the
texture can be shared with other viewport with different camera settings.
This patch will share the AOV settings between Cycles and Eevee.
It enable using the AOV name conflict detection of Blender. This
means that unlike how Cycles used to work it isn't possible to add an
AOV with a similar name. Conflicts with internal render pass names will
be indicated with an Warning icon.

This commit is a refactor of the fill tool to solve several problems we had since the first version of the tool.
Changes:
* The filling speed has been improved for each step of the process with the optimization of each algorithm/function.
* New `AutoFit` option to fill areas outside of the viewport. When enable, the total size of the frame is calculated to fit the filling area.
* New support multiframe filling. Now it is possible to fill multiple similar frames in one go.
* New `Stroke Extension` option to create temporary closing strokes. These strokes can be displayed and adjusted dynamically using wheel mouse or PageUp/Down keys.
* Parameter `Resolution` now is named `Precision` and has been moved to topbar.
* `Resolution` now has decimals and can be lower than 1 to allow quick filling in storyboarding workflows. Maximum value has been set as 5.
* Parameter `Simplify` has been moved to Advanced panel.
* Improved fill outline detection. In some cases, the outline penetrated the area to be filled with unexpected results.
* Fixes some corner case bugs with infinite loops.
As a result of this refactor, also these new functionalities has been added.
* New support for multiframe in `Draw` mode. Any drawing in active frame is duplicated to all selected frame.
* New multiframe display mode. Keyframes before or after of the active frame are displayed using onion colors. This can be disable using Onion overlay options.
