Face Sets are the new system to control the visibility state of the mesh in sculpt and paint modes. They are designed to work in modes where brushes are the primary way of interaction and they provide much more control when working with meshes with complex shapes and overlapping surfaces.
This initial commit includes:
- Sculpt Face Sets data structures and PBVH rendering.
- Face Set overlay and opacity controls.
- Sculpt Undo support.
- Remesher reprojection support. The visibility state of the mesh is also preserved when remeshing.
- Automasking and Mesh filter support.
- Mask expand operator mode to expand Face Sets (Shift + W) and flood fill areas by connectivity (press Ctrl while expanding).
- Sculpt Mode Face Sets and Visibility API.
- Sculpt Face Sets creation and visibility management operators.
- Operator to randomize the Face Sets colors.
- Draw Face Sets brush tool to create and edit the Face Sets. Drawing on the mesh creates a new Face Set. Pressing Ctrl before drawing modifies the Face Set under the brush at the beginning of the stroke.
- Updated keymap and menu to work with Face Sets from Sculpt Mode (H to toggle visibility, Alt + H to show all, Shit + H to hide).
- Pie menu on the W key with Face common Sets operations.
Know limitations:
- Multires support. The Face Sets and Visibility API needs to be implemented for Multires.

When running with debug enabled ('-d' argument),
warnings are printed for add-ons which are not yet updated.
Reminder to name things based on what they do,
not the technologies they use :)
The hardness property moves the brush falloff towards the edges, making
the brush sharper.
This should be the intended way to control the brush falloff instead of
tweaking the falloff curve manually, as it can be mapped to pressure to
make the falloff variable during the stroke.
It is also a good idea to show in the UI that the custom curves is an
advance features and it should almost never be modified when sculpting/
painting unless you want to create some advanced effects. By modifying
the curves freely it is really easy to break the brushes and make them
produce artifacts. This needs to be done in a later after merging the
pending projects to reorganize all the brush properties accordingly.

This brush has a simple physics solver that helps when sculpting cloth.
- The mass and the damping properties of the simulation are properties of the brush.
- It has two additional radius control to limit the influence and falloff of the simulation.
- Masked vertices are pinned in the simulation, and it applies the sculpt gravity directly in the solver.
- The Cloth Brush has 7 deformation modes with 2 falloff types (radial and plane).
The brush can create the constraints only on the required PBVH nodes, so the simulation is isolated on high poly meshes. As long
as the brush size is not too big it should be possible to keep it real time.
Known issues:
- The way constraints are created is extremely basic and it creates repeated constraints. Maybe there is another way to create fewer constraints while keeping the simulation quality decent. This part can also be multithreaded. (As it is it works ok, but it could be better)

UI
Main issue is that the UI doesn not respect the Unified Weight/Strength
setting (but instead alwasy shows the brushes weight/strength)
Was working before, but somewhat missed in rBfb74dcc5d69d.
See discussion in T74025 on why the Gradient Tool in its current state
is not very user friendly in general, what I think we should do though
is at least have the values in the UI respect Unified Weight / Unified
Strength since this is what the tool will use internally...

This is using the GGX probe as background. This has the drawback of
having the resolution choosed in the indirect lighting setting.
The blurring is not really high-quality.
The pros is that it has a simple implementation and is fast to evaluate.
This patch also fades the background alpha to make overlay engine draw the
default background color in the correct color space. Removing one colorspace
hack.

Since this control is set as you drag in the viewport anyway, this amount value is effectively useless.
It was only recently added by mistake with the Bevel GSOC.
This patch adds new render passes to EEVEE. These passes include:
* Emission
* Diffuse Light
* Diffuse Color
* Glossy Light
* Glossy Color
* Environment
* Volume Scattering
* Volume Transmission
* Bloom
* Shadow
With these passes it will be possible to use EEVEE effectively for
compositing. During development we kept a close eye on how to get similar
results compared to cycles render passes there are some differences that
are related to how EEVEE works. For EEVEE we combined the passes to
`Diffuse` and `Specular`. There are no transmittance or sss passes anymore.
Cycles will be changed accordingly.
Cycles volume transmittance is added to multiple surface col passes. For
EEVEE we left the volume transmittance as a separate pass.
Known Limitations
* All materials that use alpha blending will not be rendered in the render
passes. Other transparency modes are supported.
* More GPU memory is required to store the render passes. When rendering
a HD image with all render passes enabled at max extra 570MB GPU memory is
required.
Implementation Details
An overview of render passes have been described in
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Render/EEVEE/RenderPasses
Future Developments
* In this implementation the materials are re-rendered for Diffuse/Glossy
and Emission passes. We could use multi target rendering to improve the
render speed.
* Other passes can be added later
* Don't render material based passes when only requesting AO or Shadow.
* Add more passes to the system. These could include Cryptomatte, AOV's, Vector,
ObjectID, MaterialID, UV.

This fails because some tool contexts define their tools with functions
[see the following list for context that fail]:
- PARTICLE (_defs_particle.generate_from_brushes)
- SCULPT (_defs_sculpt.generate_from_brushes)
- PAINT_TEXTURE (_defs_texture_paint.generate_from_brushes)
- PAINT_VERTEX (_defs_vertex_paint.generate_from_brushes)

- SCULPT_GPENCIL (_defs_gpencil_sculpt.generate_from_brushes)
- WEIGHT_GPENCIL (_defs_gpencil_weight.generate_from_brushes)
ToolSelectPanelHelper._tools_flatten() is usually called with
cls.tools_from_context(context) [that already yields from the function].
But when registering a tool, _tools_flatten() will still give back this
function, not a ToolDef - and we cannot get a bl_idname from that.
Now check for this and yield None in that case.
Also share logic across all tool_flatten functions:
- _tools_flatten
- _tools_flatten_with_tool_index
- _tools_flatten_with_keymap
