All the changes made in the branch `soc-2020-fluid-tools` are included in this patch.
**Major changes:**
=== Viewport Display ===
- //Raw voxel display// or //closest (nearest-neighbor)// interpolation for displaying the underlying voxel data of the simulation grids more clearly.
- An option to display //gridlines// when the slicing method is //single//.
==== Grid Display ====
- Visualization for flags, pressure and level-set representation grids with a fixed color coding based on Manta GUI.
==== Vector Display ====
- //**M**arker **A**nd **C**ell// grid visualization options for vector grids like velocity or external forces.
- Made vector display options available for external forces.
==== Coloring options for //gridlines// ====
- Range highlighting and cell filtering options for displaying the simulation grid data more precisely.
- Color gridlines with flags.
- Also, made slicing and interpolation options available for Volume Object.

- add the use of DRWShaderLibrary to EEVEE's glsl codebase to reduce code
complexity and duplication.
- split bsdf_common_lib.glsl into multiple sub library which are now shared
with other engines.
- the surface shader code is now more organised and have its own files.
- change default world to use a material nodetree and make lookdev shader
more clear.

Also includes outline overlays. Removes the temp overlay drawing
We make the geometry follow camera like billboards this uses less
geometry. Currently we use half octahedron for now. Goal would be
to use icospheres.
This patch also optimize the case when pointcloud has uniform radius.
However we should premultiply the radius prop by the default radius
beforehand to avoid a multiplication on CPU.
Using geometry instead of pseudo raytraced spheres is more scalable as
we can render as low as 1 or 2 triangle to a full half sphere and can
integrate easily in the render pipeline using a low amount of code.

Only the volume drawing part is really finished and exposed to the user. Hair
plugs into the existing hair rendering code and is fairly straightforward. The
pointcloud drawing is a hack using overlays rather than Eevee and workbench.
The most tricky part for volume rendering is the case where each volume grid
has a different transform, which requires an additional matrix in the shader
and non-trivial logic in Eevee volume drawing. In the common case were all the
transforms match we don't use the additional per-grid matrix in the shader.

This patch is (almost) a complete rewrite of workbench engine.
The features remain unchanged but the code quality is greatly improved.
Hair shading is brighter but also more correct.
This also introduce the concept of `DRWShaderLibrary` to make a simple
include system inside the GLSL files.
