The issue was that where_on_path uses a resampled curve to get the data
from the curve. This leads to disconnects between the curve the user
sees and the evaluated location data.
To fix this we simply use the actual curve data the user can see.
The older code needed a cleanup either way as there were hacks in other
parts of the code trying to work around some brokenness. This is now
fixed and we no longer need to clamp the evaluation range to 0-1 or make
helper functions to make it do what we actually want.

Most fields have Affect Location and Rotation options that switch
off their effect, but they are only checked as the last step after
the force is already computed. It is more efficient to check it
when building the list of field objects, just like zero weight.
It is also possible to check the strength-related fields for 0.
As an aside, this adds Location to Texture fields (they don't
handle rotation) and both Location & Rotation checkboxes to
Fluid Flow. Boid and Curve Guide remain without options for
now as they are completely different from others.

Use common prefix as this collided with existing API's (eg BLI_voronoi).
Also expand some non-obvious abbreviations:
- 'g' -> 'generic'
- 'vl' -> 'variable_lacunarity'
- 'V' -> 'v3'
Currently all force effectors can only act on cloth when the force is
perpendicular to the surface. This makes sense for wind, but not for
other forces; and the user may want even wind to have some friction.
This changes effector code to output two force vectors - although
you of course can pass the same pointer for both. The force is split
between the two outputs based on a new per-effector setting.

Note this only changes cases where the variable was declared inside
the for loop. To handle it outside as well is a different challenge.

The files are now split up into the following sections:
- `BKE_anim_path.h` and `anim_path.c` for path/curve functions.
- `BKE_anim_visualization.h` and `anim_visualizationanim_path.c` for
animation visualization (mostly motion paths).
- `BKE_duplilist.h` for DupliList function declarations. These were
already implemented in `object_dupli.c`, so they were rather out of
place being declared in `BKE_anim.h` in the first place.
No functional changes.
While it might be handy to have type-less functionality which is
similar to how C++ math is implemented it can not be easily achieved
with just preprocessor in a way which does not have side-effects on
wrong usage.
There macros where often used on a non-trivial expression, and there
was at least one usage where it was causing an actual side effect/bug
on Windows (see change around square_f(sh[index++]) in studiolight.c).
For such cases it is handy to have a function which is guaranteed to
have zero side-effects. The motivation behind actually removing the
macros is that there is already a way to do similar calculation. Also,
not having such macros is a way to guarantee that its usage is not
changed in a way which have side-effects and that it's not used as an
inspiration for cases where it should not be used.

This is in preparation of new object types. This only changes mesh_eval, we
may do the same for mesh_deform_eval and other areas in the future if there is

This previously caused a bug in T74283, that should be fixed now.

Fix T74283: modifier display lost when moving object in edit mode.
The cause is not immediately obvious so better to revert and look at this
carefully.

A collection of smaller changes that are required in the /blender/source files. A lot of them are also due to variable renaming.

This is old logic that no longer makes sense in the new depsgraph, and causes
issues when multiple threads try to modify the same bevel object.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D4913
This was caused by curves pointing to each other
creating a cyclic dependency.
While the dependency graph detects this, generating a mesh for render
recursively generates data which cashes in this case.
Add in a check to detect cyclic links.
Note, this bug exists in 2.7x too - but only crashes on render
since 2.7x didn't use 'for_render' when converting data.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.

Some features are incompatible with multithreading and reliable evaluation
of dependencies. We are now removing them as part of a bigger cleanup to
fix bugs in keyframing and invalid animation evaluations.
* Dupliframes have been removed. This was a hack added before there were
more powerful features like the array modifier.
* Slow parent has been removed, never worked in 2.8. It was always
unreliable for use in production due to depending on whatever frame was
previously evaluated, which was not always the previous frame.
* Particle instanced objects used to have their transform evaluated at
the particle time. Now it always gets the current time transform.
* Boids can no longer do predictive avoidance of force field objects,
but still for other particles.

Not exactly sure why we did not have cached displist for bevel object
here... But anyway, that conversion operation should really happen
outside of depsgraph evaluation area, so makes sense to do it as when
generating geometry for rendering, imho. Also solves issues like loosing
hidden parts of the curve/surface, etc. Still using viewport resolution
for curves, though.
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 fields currently support a Point source and a two-dimensional
Plane source, but there is no way to create a field that pulls
toward or from a line in space other than using the Texture field
type. This adds a new simple shape option to do that.
The line is aligned along the Z axis so that it works meaningfully
with the Tube and Cone falloff modes.
