Even though the fragment shader was already discarding all members of
dof_bokeh_sides when blades was zero, the C code was still trying to
use this for a few divisions leading to runtime asserts.
Those are harmless yet can lead some to waste time while pursuiting
other bugs (namely a near freeze when blades aspect ratio is too low).
Object visibility is now handled by the depsgraph iterator, but this API
was incomplete as it made no distinction for visibility of the object itself,
particles and generated instances.
The depsgraph iterator API now includes information about which part of the
object is visible, and this is used by Cycles to replace the old custom logic.
Cycles and EEVEE visibility should now be consistent, which unfortunately does
means some subtle compatibility breakage for both.

This now only upload data per loops to the GPU, making use of index buffer
to draw polygon. This make use of the vertex cache, speed up renders
and saves a lot of vram.
Update performance is also slightly faster and can even be improved further
by updating only uvs or vcol independently.
This commits breaks texture paint batches. It will be added back in another
commit.
This changes the bent normal effect to be a bit more subtle.
I also tuned down the bent normal blending factor so mesh faceted look may
appear more in occluded regions. this is to increase the fidelity of the
indirect lighting. This blending might be a parameter in the future.

There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.
Fixes T58632: Particle don't update rotation settings
This changes a bit how the userprefs solid lights works. They are not
visible until enabling the "Edit Solid Light" checkbox. Once enabled the
current studiolight used for solid mode will be overwritten.
Once the lighting settings are tweaked, the user can click the
"Save as Studio light" button to save the current settings.
This makes it easy to create new lighting without messing the other
presets.
The studio lights are stored as ASCII files on the disk using a dead
simple custom format.
The UI/UX is not perfect and will be improved in other commits.
Also includes:
* Separate LookDev HDRI selection from Solid Lights
* Hide LookDev HDRIs from the Solid Lights selection list
In 2.79 hiding works in paint modes with selection enabled,
so it is a missing feature. This implements it in texture
paint overlays and in workbench base shading.

* Less Lengthy enum/macro names.
* Optimize computation of Spherical Harmonics.
* Reduce radiance cubemap size a bit. Higher resolution is not necessary.
* Remove STUDIOLIGHT_LIGHT_DIRECTION_CALCULATED (was not used).
* Do windowing on each component separately instead of using luminance.
* Use ITER_PIXELS to iterate on each pixels, using pixel center coords.
* Remove gpu_matcap_3components as it is only needed when creating the gputex.
* Fix a lot of confusion in axis denomination/swizzle.
These changes should not affect functionallity.
The crash only occurs with Intel 3rd generation GPUs.
It occurs because the program needs to be used at least once in the opengl context in which it is created.
This setting can be tweaked to improve glossy reflection cubemaps.
It increases the sample count for each roughness level.
This settings affect the lookdev mode quality as well.
This enables reducing the noise comming from very bright light sources
(like a sun) that can be found in distant HDRIs.
The lost energy may be replaced manually by a sunlight that compensate the
this loss.
This clamping only concerns Reflection Cubmaps and is done on all on all
of them.
Setting to 0.0 disables it (default).
This is a parameter that will make the interpolation between irradiance
cells of a same Irradiance Volume smoother, reducing the weight of the
light leaking correction factors.
It is usefull in some cases to avoid harsh lighting transition that can
happen when a sample point it near a surface.
This is an important change. Starting from now, all lights have a finite
influence radius (similar to the old sphere option for BI).
In order to avoid costly setup time, this distance is first computed
automatically based on a light threshold. The distance is computed
at the light origin and using the inverse square falloff. The setting
can be found inside the render settings panel > shadow tab.
This light threshold does not take the light shape into account an may not
suit every case. That's why we provide a per lamp override where you can
just set the cutt off distance (Light Properties Panel > Light >
Custom Distance).
The influence distance is also used as shadow far clip distance.
This influence distance does not concerns sun lights that still have a
far clip distance.

This change is important because it makes it possible to cull lights
an improve performance drastically in the future.
I made an empirical test with a 100% diffuse sphere and manually tweak the
lighting power of a sun lamp trying to fit cycles and eevee the best I can.
Then I plotted the result and found a rough fit to the equation and that
seems to work pretty well.
This makes it possible to tweak indirect lighting in the shader.
Only a subset of the outputs is supported and the ray depth has not exactly
the same meaning:
Is Camera : Supported.
Is Shadow : Supported.
Is Diffuse : Supported.
Is Glossy : Supported.
Is Singular : Not supported. Same as Is Glossy.
Is Reflection : Not supported. Same as Is Glossy.
Is Transmission : Not supported. Same as Is Glossy.
Ray Length : Not supported. Defaults to 1.0.
Ray Depth : Indicate the current bounce when baking the light cache.
Diffuse Depth : Same as Ray Depth but only when baking diffuse light.
Glossy Depth : Same as Ray Depth but only when baking specular light.
Transparent Depth : Not supported. Defaults to 0.
Transmission Depth : Not supported. Same as Glossy Depth.
Caveat: Is Glossy does not work with Screen Space Reflections but does work
with reflection planes (when used with SSR or not).
We have to render the world twice for that to work.
