Approximately 138 changes in the spelling of compound words
and proper names like "Light Probe", "Shrink/Fatten", "Face Map".
In many cases, hyphens were used where they aren't correct, like
"re-fit". Other common changes include:
- "Datablock" -> "data-block"
- "Floating point" -> "floating-point"
- "Ngons" -> "n-gons"

This replaces the cmake options `WITH_NEW_OBJECT_TYPES` and
`WITH_NEW_SIMULATION_TYPE` with two experimental userpref settings:
* `use_new_particle_system`: Enables the point cloud type and the simulation editor.
* `use_new_hair_type`: Only displays the add-operator in the add menu for now.
Note, in the current state you can't do anything productive with the new particle
system or the new hair type. Features will be added step by step in the upcoming
weeks and months.

There are three different label styles for the three Dopesheet filter
labels:
- "Display Hidden", which uses "Display" rather than "Show" as the other
two options.
- "Show Errors", which does not use the word "only" to indicate it will
hide all the non-error channels.
- "Only Selected", so no "show" or "display" in the label at all.
This commit changes:
- Always use the word "Show", not "Display".
- Always use the word "Only" when enabling the filter hides everything
else.

- Split 'verify_fcurve' into two functions:
ED_action_fcurve_ensure which adds the f-curve if needed.
ED_action_fcurve_find which returns NULL when not found.
Callers of ED_action_fcurve_find had unused 'group'
argument which has been removed.
- Rename verify_adt_action to ED_id_action_ensure
It had an argument to add data which was always true,
remove this instead of splitting in into a separate function.
The old layout of `PointerRNA` was confusing for historic reasons:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct {
void *data;
} id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
This patch updates it to:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct ID *owner_id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
Throughout the code base `id.data` was replaced with `owner_id`.
Furthermore, many explicit pointer type casts were added which
were implicit before. Some type casts to `ID *` were removed.

A few icons were missed in the last update.
- Added dedicated icon for showing hidden objects in the Graph Editor
- Added new, more descriptive icon for F-Curve snapshots
- Tweaks for Toggle Full Screen and Collections icons
This should be the final set for 2.80.
Thanks to Andrzej Ambroż for contributing this icon set.
The goal is to prevent assignment of temporary or evaluated meshes
to objects from the main database.
Majority of the change is actually related on passing reports around.
On a positive side there are more error prints which can become more
visible to scripters.
There are still possible further improvements in the related areas.
For example, disable user counting for evaluated ID datablocks when
assignment happens. But can also happen later on as a separate
improvement.

I did not rename the other property to `show_expanded_dopesheet`
yet (as suggested in the report), because:
* Would break compatibility (haven't found any addon using it though).
* I'm not sure if this really only affects the dopesheet.
Use dedicated flag to tag animation just for copy-on-write synchronization,
which makes it so copies of the original data blocks gets in sync with the
original ID. This will not flush the animation update to all objects which
depend on that animation.
If such flush is required, use ID_RECALC_ANIMATION.

This commit adds a datablock filtering option for cache files channels,
so that a shot with lots of these in addition to standard animation
(e.g. the Spring production files) don't become bogged down by these.
Furthermore, these channels also respect the "Only Selected" toggle too now.

* Text editor word wrap, line numbers & syntax toggles now use consistent icons
that don’t change when you enable or disable them.
* Replaced icon toggle buttons in the snapping popover with normal checkboxes
and descriptive text labels. This makes it clearer which item is the main
radio button, is more consistent with other popovers, and allows us to use
more descriptive text.
* Added correct icons for grease pencil add menu.
* Added bespoke icons for grease pencil modifiers.
* Added icon for particle instance modifier.
* Added icon for fake user on & off states.
* Added correct icons for enabling/disabling modifiers in the dopesheet &
f-curve editor.
* Made it so the restrict viewport & restrict render toggles for modifier
update correctly when enabled or disabled, by flipping the order in the
icon sheet. This also required changing the outliner to match.
* Removed the few old remaining icons in the old style and made sure to replace
the last places where they were used.
* Updated many icons to be clearer & more consistent.
Only tag relations update when new f-curve was allocated. This solves
possible too slow keyframe insertion when doing character animation,
but still does proper relation update when new ID component became
animated.
Now the name/collection filters run when there's some text,
and don't run when the box is empty, thus reducing an extra
step that was needed before these options could be used.
OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.

This gives us 9 flags available again for properties (we had none anymore),
and also makes things slightly cleaner.
To simplify (and make more clear the differences between mere properties
and function parameters), also added RNA_def_parameter_flags function (and
its clear counterpart), to be used instead of RNA_def_property_flag for
function parameters.
This patch is also a big cleanup (some RNA function definitions were
still using 'prop' PropertyRNA pointer, etc.).
And yes, am aware this will be annoying for all branches, but we really need
to get new flags available for properties (will need at least one for override, etc.).

A long requested feature has been to have objects appear in alphabetical order
in the animation editors, so that it is easier to find where they occur. This
commit implements support for this.
The main sticking point has been the performance impact of having this sorting
happening all the time (as the actual list of "bases" cannot be modified, as the
old depsgraph still needs random-looking unsorted order of objects for scheduling
updates). However, it recently occurred to me that perhaps by restricting it to
the one case where the ordering actually matters (i.e. when we're getting the channel
list for drawing all channels, vs operating on them), and adding a toggle to turn the
sorting off in heavy scenes when it might bog down things, that it will probably
be acceptable enough in general. Furthermore, if things get really bad, we can investigate
putting in place some sort of caching scheme for this too - though hopefully the
new depsgraph will make that unnecessary (i.e. it doesn't sort the bases directly anymore).
Thanks to D1080 by @rockets, I've now been able to easily implement the
ability to type multiple word snippets/partial words into the text filter
field (in the Animation Editors), and have it filter the channels which
contain just some of those parts (instead of having to match everything).
For example, the following search strings will now work:
* "loc rot" or "lo ro" will now filter all location and rotation FCurves
* "col loc" will filter all location and color FCurves
* "scale" will also work as before to filter all scale FCurves
But, the following will not work:
* "lc rt" will NOT filter all location and rotation, as the fuzzy search only
breaks down the search string based on whitespace placement
By default, this is not enabled when using name filtering (i.e. magnifying glass is checked,
and some filtering text is specified). Instead, you need to enable the "AZ" toggle beside
the name field. This fuzzy matching is not enabled by default as it could end up being
quite a bit slower on really heavy scenes. (There are probably some optimisation
opportunities, but that's only a future option if someone really needs it)
