Basically what we address here is to make sure the active object and the cage
are not interferring with the baking result (e.g., when baking Combined).
To do so, we take advantage of the fact that we create our own depsgraph
for baking. So now we can change the cowed objects, instead of the
original ones.
Note: There is still a way to get a crash. If you try to bake from
selected to active when is_cage, but with no cage object, we get an
assert:
```
BLI_assert failed: //source/blender/blenkernel/intern/DerivedMesh.c
mesh_calc_modifiers(), at
(((Mesh *)ob->data)->id.tag & LIB_TAG_COPIED_ON_WRITE_EVAL_RESULT) == 0
```
We can bypass this by passing ob_low instead of ob_low_eval to
bake_mesh_new_from_object on object_bake_api.c:847 . But then the edge
split modifier change will take no effect.
Since we started using looptris we no longer need a triangulation
modifier in the highpoly object. In fact having was causing a bug
where baking would be utterly broken.
This fix normal baking. Combined pass still needs a fix to hide the
objects during baking.
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
Currently this is possible after built-in images are loaded in memory.
Allows to save memory used by dependency graph and copy-on-write.
In practice this lowers peak system memory usage from 52GB to 42GB on
a production file of spring 03_035_A.lighting.
Note, that this only applies to F12 and command line renders.
Bigger note, that this optimization is currently only possible if
there are no grease pencil objects to be rendered.
That kind of implicit includes should really only be done when totally,
absolutely necessary, and ideally only with rather simple 'second-level'
headers.
Otherwise not being explicit with includes always end up biting in
unexpected ways...
This option make the internal render size larger than the output size in
order to minimize screenspace effects disapearing at the render edges.
The overscan size added around the render is the maximum dimension
multiplied by the overscan percentage.
Loop triangles are tessellated triangles create from polygons, for renderers
or exporters that need to match Blender's polygon tesselation exactly. These
are a read-only runtime cache.
Tessfaces are a legacy data structure from before Blender supported n-gons,
and were already mostly removed from the C code.
Details on porting code to loop triangles is in the release notes.

With the removal of blender internal, the texture preview had to be
rewritten. Now we evaluate and write the texture directly to the
preview buffer instead of going through the renderer.

For users it defines how accurate vertex positions are in terms
of limit surface (as in, how close the vertices locations to the
condition when they are calculated for an infinitely subdivided
mesh).
This affects things like:
- Irregular vertices (joint of 3 or more edges)
- Crease
Keep quality value low for performance.
NOTE: Going higher does not necessarily mean real improvement
in quality, ideal case might be reached well before maximum
quality of 10. Quality of 3 is a good starting point.
Internally quality is translated directly to adaptive subdivision
level.

This replaces old single toggle option to subdivide UVs with
an enum which can have more options. The usecase for this is
to be compatible with other software. But we also might choose
different subdivision type as default in the future.
DNA and underlying code supports all possible options, but
only the ones which are compatible with old subdivision code
are currently exposes.

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.
The issue was caused by Render Single Layer option enabled, which is
very handy for artists work, so they can hit F12 and see view layer
they are currently working in a final rendered state. This saves a lot
of time since all the "non-interesting" objects are ignored for such
iterations.
However, for the render farm we need to render view layers which are
explicitly set for render, and ignore active view layer.
Reasonable solution seems to be to ignore the Render Single Layer
option when rendering from the command line. It is really something
more like UI behavior option.
This does not include all the struct and type renaming. Only files were
renamed.
gwn_batch.c/h was fusioned with GPU_batch.c/h
gwn_immediate.c/h was fusioned with GPU_immediate.c/h
gwn_imm_util.c/h was fusioned with GPU_immediate_util.c/h
This error is only in Windows and Mac when select in properties the material tab.
This commit revert dc856be839 Preview: Add own opengl context to render preview images.
Previously, render slots were hardcoded to a fixed amount.
With this change, render slots now are stored in a list. Therefore, users can add and/or remove as many slots as they want.
Credit to brecht for the UI part.
