That's like really a bummer, because currently animation data for armatures
might want to use pose, and pose might be missing on the object.
This happens when changing visible layers, which leads to situations when
pose is missing or marked for recalc, animation will change it and then
object update will restore the pose.
This could be solved by the new dependency graph, but for until then we'll
do an extra pass on the objects to ensure it's all fine.
It's done in the scene_update_for_newframe() to solve possible issues with
the render engines as well.
This finally solves issues we had with Caminandes team, where Koro would be
at the scene origin instead of being properly posed.
Features:
* Both still image and animation rendering, as well as polygon
fills are supported.
* The exporter creates a new SVG layer for every Freestyle line
set. The different layers are correctly sorted.
* SVG paths use data from line styles, so the base color of a
line style becomes the color of paths, idem for dashes and
stroke thickness.
* Strokes can be split at invisible parts. This functionality is
useful when exporting for instance dashed lines or line styles
with a Blue Print shader
* The exporter can be used not only in the Parameter Editor mode,
but also from within style modules written for the Python
Scripting mode.

The issue was caused by the render engine loading edit mesh, which re-allocates
mesh array which might be referenced by other object's derived meshed.
Worst thing about this is that updating render engine happens from the end of
scene update function, after all the objects are updated and so. This is needed
so render engine gets the update objects which is correct.
The only proper way to solve the issue is to make it so viewport engine does not
leave objects in inconsistent state, meaning nobody will reference to freed data.
In order to reach this we do edit mesh loading before running objects update so
all the objects which uses that mesh will have proper references in the derived
mesh.
This also solves old creepyness which happened before when having single object
in edit mode. tweaking it will calculate derived mesh as a part of scene update,
then this derived mesh will be freed by edit mesh loading and viewport will be
creating derived mesh again.
Now render engine is expected to do nothing with meshes which are in edit mode,
but they still need to load edit data for non0meshes. It's not really easy to
do from the BKE level because needed functions are implemented in the editor.
Thanks Campbell for the review!

BKE_scene_base_iter_next() was completely messing poor dupli objects' matrices...
Note this func should be reworked, but as stated in comments, it should not exist at all,
DAG should be used here, so until we have new shinny one we can live with this.
Also, mballs do not behave correctly when used as duplis (org object remains visible/rendered,
unlike any other object type). This will be fixed in a separate patch/commit,
since it proved to be rather tricky to handle.
New operator that can calls a bake function to the current render engine when available. This commit provides no feature for the users, but allows external engines to be accessed by the operator and be integrated with the baking api.
The API itself is simple. Blender sends a populated array of BakePixels to the renderer, and gets back an array of floats with the result.
The Blender Internal (and multires) system is still running independent, but we eventually will pipe it through the API as well. Cycles baking will come next as a separated commit
Python Operator:
----------------
The operator can be called with some arguments, or a user interface can be created for it. In that case the arguments can be ommited and the interface can expose the settings from bpy.context.scene.render.bake
bpy.ops.object.bake(type='COMBINED', filepath="", width=512, height=512, margin=16, use_selected_to_active=False, cage_extrusion=0, cage="", normal_space='TANGENT', normal_r='POS_X', normal_g='POS_Y', normal_b='POS_Z', save_mode='INTERNAL', use_clear=False, use_split_materials=False, use_automatic_name=False)
Note: external save mode is currently disabled.
Supported Features:
------------------
* Margin - Baked result is extended this many pixels beyond the border of each UV "island," to soften seams in the texture.
* Selected to Active - bake shading on the surface of selected object to the active object. The rays are cast from the lowpoly object inwards towards the highpoly object. If the highpoly object is not entirely involved by the lowpoly object, you can tweak the rays start point with Cage Extrusion. For even more control of the cage you can use a Cage object.
* Cage Extrusion - distance to use for the inward ray cast when using selected to active
* Custom Cage - object to use as cage (instead of the lowpoly object).
* Normal swizzle - change the axis that gets mapped to RGB
* Normal space - save as tangent or object normal spaces
Supported Passes:
-----------------
Any pass that is supported by Blender renderlayer system. Though it's up to the external engine to provide a valid enum with its supported passes. Normal passes get a special treatment since we post-process them to converted and "swizzled"
Development Notes for External Engines:
---------------------------------------
(read them in bake_api.c)
* For a complete implementation example look at the Cycles Bake commit (next).

This function used ugly hack with static variable which was
preventing some type checks in DAG nodes. Using this variable
form multiple threads is not considered safe, apparently.
Solved by moving this variable inside the DAGForest structure.
so it's global for the graph now, but different graphs does not

This required passing the forest to some functions, which doesn't
look so much nice, but don't want to spend time on making this
code look beautiful because it is really to be replaced by the
new dependency graph.
This is really bad bug actually which is must go to 'a'.
- autodetect optimal default, which typically avoids HT threads
- can store setting in .blend per scene
- this does not touch general omp max threads, due i found other areas where the calculations are fitting for huge corecount
- Intel notes, some of the older generation processors with HyperThreading would not provide significant performance boost for FPU intensive applications. On those systems you might want to set OMP_NUM_THREADS = total number of cores (not total number of hardware theads).
Issue is a regression since threaded objetc update and caused
by the fact that some objects might share the same proxy object.
It's all fine but object_handle_update() will call update for
a proxy object which screws up threaded update.
The thing is, proxy object is marked as depending on a scene
object and such a call makes it so the children objetc is
being updated.
This is really bad and depsgraph is to take all responsibility
on updating the proxy objects.
So for now used a simple solution (which is safe to backport
to 'a') which is skipping proxy update if the scene update is
threaded and based on the DAG traversal.
There are some still areas which calls object update directly
and for that cases proxy object is still being updated from
object_handle_update().
option after reentering a paint mode.
Solution by Bastien with modifications, thanks!
Show Brush flag need not be reenabled always, but make sure it is at
least enabled once on paint initialization.
Issue was caused by cycles setting scene frame which will update scene for
all the layers (not just visible ones) which confuses depsgraph making
objects which are needed as dependency are not really evaluated.
Made it so setting frame via scene.frame_set() which check whether update
need to be flushed to an invisible objects and do this if so.
Not ideal solution but seems to be safest at this point.
Z, Index, normal, UV and vector passes are only affected by surfaces with alpha
transparency equal to or higher than this threshold. With value 0.0 the first
surface hit will always write to these passes, regardless of transparency. With
higher values surfaces that are mostly transparent can be skipped until an opaque
surface is encountered.
This fixes the first case mentioned in the report. Has to do some ugly
DNA access to SpaceNode, unless we'd allow a bad level call there to do
it in ED_node ...
The second case has been fixed by @sergey in D274:
https://developer.blender.org/D274?vs=838&id=879#toc
So actually asan just did its job here, good to know!
As discussed in T38340 the solution is to use the current scene from
context whenever feasible.
Composite does not use node->id at all now, the scene which owns the
compositing node tree is retrieved from context instead.
Defocus node->id is made editable by the user. By default it is not set,
which also will make it use the contextual scene and camera info.
The node->id pointer in Defocus is **not** cleared in older blend files.
This is done for backward compatibility: the node will then behave as
before in untouched scenes.
File Output nodes also don't store scene in node->id. This is only needed
when creating a new node for initializing the file format.
