Previously we tried this but reverted (see 64d40c82c3)
because there wasn't a predictable set of keys to use global-space.
Now the keys are swapped:
- 'GX' always transforms in the user defined orientation.
- 'GXX' always transforms in global space.
As before 'GXXX' cycles back to disabling constraints.
This does have a down side that GXX won't be used for local-space
when the user has global space set.
Also, when global is the user-orientation, pressing GX and GXX
does the same thing.
Note: examples here use GX but could be any transform-mode/axis.
This should be purely an implementation change,
for end users there should be no functional difference.
The entire key configuration is in one file with ~5000 lines of code.
Mostly avoiding code duplication and preserve comments and utility
functions from the C code.
It's a bit long but for searching and editing it's also convenient to
have it all in one file.
Notes:
- Actual keymap is shared by blender / blender_legacy
and stored in `keymap_data/blender_default.py`
This only generates JSON-like data to be passed into
`keyconfig_import_from_data`, allowing other presets to load and
manipulate the default keymap.
- Each preset defines 'keyconfig_data'
which can be shared between presets.
- Some of the utility functions for generating keymap items still
need to be ported over to Python.
- Some keymap items can be made into loops (marked as TODO).

Needed for situations when we can't use the orientation.
With extrude the initial extrusion recalculates normals for edges
and vertices which then don't give a useful axis.
Users can select the main unit they want to use now.
Previously the displayed unit always depended on the magnitude of the value.
The old behavior can be restored by switching to the "Adaptive" mode for length, mass and time units.
Meters, kilograms and seconds are the default units for new and old scenes.
The selected unit is also the default unit for user input.
E.g. if cm is selected, whenever the user inputs a unitless number into a field of type length, it will be interpreted as cm.

As grease pencil use multiedit frames instead of multiobject edit, this fix solves the issue.
In the future maybe will need modifications if we add multiobject support, but we need a solution now.
This commit merge the full development done in greasepencil-object branch and include mainly the following features.
- New grease pencil object.
- New drawing engine.
- New grease pencil modes Draw/Sculpt/Edit and Weight Paint.
- New brushes for grease pencil.
- New modifiers for grease pencil.
- New shaders FX.
- New material system (replace old palettes and colors).
- Split of annotations (old grease pencil) and new grease pencil object.
- UI adapted to blender 2.8.

This is the result of nearly two years of development and I want thanks firstly the other members of the grease pencil team: Daniel M. Lara, Matias Mendiola and Joshua Leung for their support, ideas and to keep working in the project all the time, without them this project had been impossible.
Also, I want thanks other Blender developers for their help, advices and to be there always to help me, and specially to Clément Foucault, Dalai Felinto, Pablo Vázquez and Campbell Barton.
This reverts commit 8121010310.
After user feedback this has the downside of having no predictable
way of transforming in global space.
Since toggling between global/user is reversed when global is
the user axis.
Previously global was always used before the current orientation,
the order is now reversed, which assumes the user wants to first
use the value they set, with the global secondary.
