After a previous commit to use unique identifiers for Ghash key, I had missed to free the memory of the name key.
Thanks to Jacques Lucke for detecting the leak.
The problem was not only for instances, but for particles too, and produced segment fault.
For some reason due any internal modification of how duplicated objects are generated, the duplicated object are not available when the draw manager try to use runtime data.
Now, before drawing the particle or the instance, the pointers of the duplicated objects are reassigned to the original "real object" to get full access to runtime data.
Now it's possible use the different Wire modes (Single, Object & Random)
Also support for x-ray mode.
For random colors, the name of the object and the name of the layer is used.
Also some parameters cleanup.
When enable Wireframe mode in the shading type, all strokes are displayed as simple 1 pixel lines.
The color of the line is equal to the stroke color or the fill color if the fill is enabled and the stroke is disabled or has invisible alpha value.
In wireframe mode, all FX are disabled because sometimes the effects can make the lines invisible.
The modifiers are not disabled.
Still pending to decide if we must add support for Random colors, but not sure if this is useful in 2D.
Add a new Draw Mode to display panel in order to define the z-.depth order of the strokes using the real 3D position and not the 2D layer position.
This change makes possible to use VR with grease pencil drawings because the depth of the strokes change with camera position. Also, provide an alternative solution to tasks: T57859, T60325,
The parameter only works with 3D space depth ordering. The Back and Front depths are incompatible with 3D Space mode.
Options are:
- Back
- Front
- 3D Space->2D Layers (default)
-3D Space->3D Location (new mode)
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.

Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
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.
Fixes T58956, T58202, T59284.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D4109
This commit adds support for new curve tool and adds more functionalities to the existing primitives, including new handles, editing, stroke thickness curve, noise, preview of the real stroke, etc.
Thanks to @charlie for his great contribution to this improvement.
Now it's possible define the blend mode between layers including the option to clamp the layer using underlying layers.
Also a new Simplify option has been added to disable blend layers.
This is part of T57829.
Reduce the number of batches used to only one by shader type. This reduces GPU overhead and increase a lot the FPS. As the number of batches is small, the time to allocate and free memory was reduced in 90% or more.
Also the code has been simplified and all batch management has been removed because this is not necessary. Now, all shading groups are created after all vertex buffer data for all strokes has been created using DRW_shgroup_call_range_add().
All batch cache data has been moved to the Object runtime struct and not as before where some parts (derived data) were saved inside GPD datablock.
For particles, now the code is faster and cleaner and gets better FPS.
Thanks to Clément Foucault for his help and advices to improve speed.
Now the grid is always controlled by the topbar selector and not in the canvas panel. To have two places to define orientation was confuse.
The orientation by default (no lock) is always to view plane.
The grid now can be configured by object because this helps to identify objects and allows to define diferent grid parameters for each objects.
Also added a color option.
For onion skin, the cache is set as dirty always because can be too many combinations of overlays and windows and makes impossible to control all changes of dirty flag.
This reduces performance, but it's safer and the onion is disabled while play animation, so the fps value is not affected.
