This commit changes a lot of how IDs are handled internally, especially the unlinking/freeing
processes. So far, this was very fuzy, to summarize cleanly deleting or replacing a datablock
was pretty much impossible, except for a few special cases.
Also, unlinking was handled by each datatype, in a rather messy and prone-to-errors way (quite
a few ID usages were missed or wrongly handled that way).
One of the main goal of id-remap branch was to cleanup this, and fatorize ID links handling
by using library_query utils to allow generic handling of those, which is now the case
(now, generic ID links handling is only "knwon" from readfile.c and library_query.c).
This commit also adds backends to allow live replacement and deletion of datablocks in Blender
(so-called 'remapping' process, where we replace all usages of a given ID pointer by a new one,
or NULL one in case of unlinking).
This will allow nice new features, like ability to easily reload or relocate libraries, real immediate
deletion of datablocks in blender, replacement of one datablock by another, etc.
Some of those are for next commits.
A word of warning: this commit is highly risky, because it affects potentially a lot in Blender core.
Though it was tested rather deeply, being totally impossible to check all possible ID usage cases,
it's likely there are some remaining issues and bugs in new code... Please report them! ;)

Separate the creation of trees from EditMesh from the creation of trees from DerivedMesh.
This was meant to simplify the API, but didn't work out so well.
`bvhtree_from_mesh_*` actually is working as `bvhtree_from_derivedmesh_*`.
This is inconsistent with the trees created from EditMesh. Since for create them does not use the DerivedMesh.
In such cases the dm is being used only to cache the tree in the struct DerivedMesh. What is immediately released once
bvhtree is being used in functions that change(tag) the DM cleaning the cache.
- Use a filter function so users of SnapObjectContext can define how edit-mesh elements are handled.
- Remove em_evil.
- bvhtree of EditMesh is now really cached in the snap functions.
- Code becomes organized and easier to maintain.
This is an important patch for future improvements in snapping functions.
It also fixes another issue (crash) related to symmetric editing.
Quite involved, we (try to!) fix complete broken logic of parts of particle code, which would use poly index
as tessface one (or vice-versa). Issue most probably goes back to BMesh integration time...
This patch mostly fixes particle editing mode:
- Adding/removing particles when using generative modifiers (like subsurf) should now work.
- Adding/removing particles with a non-tessellated mesh (i.e. one having ngons) should also mostly work.
- X-axis-mirror-editing particles over ngons does not really work, not sure why currently.
- All this in both 'modes' (with or without using modifier stack for particles).
Tech side:
- Store a deformed-only DM in particle modifier data.
- Rename existing DM to make it clear it's a final one.
- Use deformed-only DM's tessface2poly mapping to 'solve' poly/tessface mismatches.
- Make (part of) mirror-editing code able to use a DM instead of raw mesh, so that we can mirror based on final DM
when editing particles using modifier stack (mandatory, since there is no way currently to find orig tessface
from an final DM tessface index).
Note that this patch is not really nice and clean (current particles are beyond hope on this side anyway),
it's more like some urgency bandage. Whole crap needs complete rewrite anyway,
BMesh's polygons make it really hard to work with current system (and looptri would not help much here).
Also, did not test everything possibly affected by those changes, so it needs some users' testing & validation too.

While SCons building system was serving us really good for ages it's no longer
having much attention by the developers and started to become quite a difficult
task to maintain.
What's even worse -- there started to be quite serious divergence between SCons
and CMake which was only accumulating over the releases now. The fact that none
of the active developers are really using SCons and that our main studio is also
using CMake spotting bugs in the SCons builds became quite a difficult task and
we aren't always spotting them in time.
Meanwhile CMake became really mature building system which is available on every
platform we support and arguably it's also easier and more robust to use.
This commit includes:
- Removal of actual SCons building system
- Removal of SCons git submodule
- Removal of documentation which is stored in the sources and covers SCons
- Tweaks to the buildbot master to stop using SCons submodule
(this change requires deploying to the server)
- Tweaks to the install dependencies script to skip installing or mentioning
SCons building system
- Tweaks to various helper scripts to avoid mention of SCons folders/files
as well

painting.
Also system added a brush every time it found no paint brush in the
system which is not what we would want.
Solution:
* Brush panel stays visible always, regardless of whether there is a
brush or not.
* We search for first available brush when we find no brush in paint
struct instead of always generating a new one.
* Generating and searching for a brush take a mode argument now. Needed
some refactoring to users of BKE_paint_init as well.
* Did some style cleanups for paint mode enums.
Patch is big but it's mostly argument refactoring.
- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
The issue was caused by the following construction:
def = env['SOMETHING']
defs.append('SOMETHING_MORE')
Since first assignment was actually referencing environment option it was totally
polluted hawing weird and wonderful side effects on all other areas of Blender.
Basically, blender adds a few metadata fields to images when
we render an image. Those metadata can now be viewed in the
image editor.
Also, made sure metadata are available when we write imbufs
to disc with "Save As". There may be more cases here that need
fixing, but this means that loading an image with metadata
will now properly preserve them in blender.
Make the UI API more consistent and reduce confusion with some naming.
mainly:
- API function calls
- enum values
some internal static functions have been left for now
quit.blend.
This will use a slower file write if an object is in edit or sculpt
mode.
Autosaving will explicitly not be supported to keep it fast.
Added a tooltip warning.
Added a special notifier now NC_WM|ND_UNDO in order to deal with such cases
and now compositor/image will refresh when undo happens.
There are much more ways to fail compo to update the resul, like undoing
while it's not visible and so, but as mont29 said -- let's at least fix
obvious crap in the workflow.
Turned out there were several issues in handling of scale parameter by numinput.
Fixed that by factorizing more some code in common with 'usual' numbuttons eval code
(new `bUnit_getScaleUnit()` helper will return valid scaled value, depending on
given system and type).
Now, numinput behaves as expected - using default unit amended by scale in case no unit is given
(i.e. entering '20' with a scale of 0.01 will give you 20cm, and '20cm' as well!).
Turned out to be a clean/fix up of modal bevel tool, percentage mode handling was broken,
numinput handling was broken, etc.
Also added a way to switch between bevel types (modes) with M key, and tweaked a bit
numinput code to return early in case of 'char' event with ctrl modifier.
Commented out the 'no zero' protection of scaling transforms for numinput.
Issue is, once an axis has null scale, you can't regrow it from transform code
(you have to directly edit the scale property). This is not ideal, but getting
good behavior in this case is hairy...
Yet, when using numinput, you type precise values, so if you want to set it to zero,
set it to zero. User is assumed responsible, we should avoid too much 'invisible magic'
when handling precise inputs. ;)
Note: an idea for possible future feature would be to have an 'absolute' mode for numinput
(allowing to type in real value, not factors).
objects.
Flush edits for all objects, not just the active one. Here we might want
to disallow leaving an object on sculpt mode when selecting another, but
this works, no need to enforce it.
This is needed for popups to chance state once activated,
currently it makes use of operators `check` callback, after values are modified,
as the file selector does already.
Issue here is that upon entering sculpt mode, the mesh (and the object
mode) is stored in global undo. Now made the code similar to edit mode,
but since we don't really have any operator to push, this is just
ignored for now.
I have tried just disabling the sculpt toggle operator undo flag but
this didn't work due to the nature recursive of the operator calls
Undoing nodes that do not belong to the current object will cause the
saved bmesh log entry to be reverted instead. This entry can belong to
another object though.
This is easy to fix by enforcing name matching (this was borrowed by
edit mode but can definitely be improved) between current object name
and undo node name and deleting older entries.
However there are complications. Deleting dyntopo entries in this way
can leave a brush stroke as first dyntopo log entry. This can present
issues if we attempt to delete that entry since it's deleted mesh
elements may now have had their ids (which would still be valid at the
time) cleaned up. This can result in crashing if we attempt to resculpt
on the mesh. To fix this I have disabled releasing the deleted entries.
This entanglement between bm_log and undo is quite volatile but I hope
the system works better now.
Also minor cleanup, fix unneeded check warning
