It seems to be useful still in cases where the particle are distributed in
a particular order or pattern, to colorize them along with that. This isn't
really well defined, but might as well avoid breaking backwards compatibility
for now.
This is like the only way to add variety to hair which is created
using simple children. Used here for the hair.
Maybe not ideal, but the time will show.
This adds midlevel and object/world space for displacement, and a
vector displacement node with tangent/object/world space, midlevel
and scale.
Note that tangent space vector displacement still is not exactly
compatible with maps created by other software, this will require
changes to the tangent computation.

Previously only scalar displacement along the normal was supported,
now displacement can go in any direction. For backwards compatibility,
a Displacement node will be automatically inserted in existing files.
This will make it possible to support vector displacement maps in the
future. It's already possible to use them to some extent, but requires
a manual shader node setup. For tangent space maps the right tangent
may also not be available yet, depends on the map.

This converts object space height to world space displacement, to be
linked to the new vector displacement material output.

This is a hack to make the user control the SSS radius even though the profile is baked with the default radius values.
This is completly against UI principles since you cannot edit the profile radiuses while there is something plugged into the radius socket.
Better solution will be to either have a dedicated node value for RGB radiuses and a SSS scale socket only for eevee.
The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

This seems to be a correct implementation of the same diffusion profile as Cycles uses by default.
There are a few bias though:
- We consider _A_ the albedo to be 1 when evaluating _s_.
- We use a factor of 0.6 when computing _d_ to match more or less cycles results.
Note that doing per pixel jittering does bias the result even further (loss of energy).
How to use:
- Enable subsurface scattering in the render options.
- Add Subsurface BSDF to your shader.
- Check "Screen Space Subsurface Scattering" in the material panel options.
This initial implementation has a few limitations:
- only supports gaussian SSS.
- Does not support principled shader.
- The radius parameters is baked down to a number of samples and then put into an UBO. This means the radius input socket cannot be used. You need to tweak the default vector directly.
- The "texture blur" is considered as always set to 1
The algorithm averages normals from nearby surfaces. It uses the same
sampling strategy as BSSRDFs, casting rays along the normal and two
orthogonal axes, and combining the samples with MIS.
The main concern here is that we are introducing raytracing inside
shader evaluation, which could be quite bad for GPU performance and
stack memory usage. In practice it doesn't seem so bad though.
Note that using this feature can easily slow down renders 20%, and
that if you care about performance then it's better to use a bevel
modifier. Mainly this is useful for baking, and for cases where the
mesh topology makes it difficult for the bevel modifier to work well.

It should behave like cycles.
Even if not efficient at all, we still do the same create - draw - free process that was done in the old viewport to save vram (maybe not really the case now) and not care about simulation's GPU texture state sync.
This is quite basic as it only support boundbing boxes.
But the material can refine the volume shape in anyway the user like.
To overcome this limitation, a voxelisation should be done on the mesh (generating a SDF maybe?) and tested against every volumetric cell.
Engine is not stored in WorkSpaces. That defines the "context" engine, which
is used for the entire UI.
The engine used for the poll of nodes (add node menu, new nodes when "Use Nodes")
is obtained from context.
Introduce a ViewRender struct for viewport settings that are defined for
workspaces and scene. This struct will be populated with the hand-picked
settings that can be defined per workspace as per the 2.8 design.
* use_scene_settings
* properties editor: workshop + organize context path
Use Scene Settings
==================
For viewport drawing, Workspaces have an option to use the Scene render
settings (F12) instead of the viewport settings.
This way users can quickly preview the final render settings, engine and
View Layer. This will affect all the editors in that workspace, and it will be
clearly indicated in the top-bar.
Properties Editor: Add Workspace and organize context path
==========================================================
We now have the properties of:
Scene, Scene > Layer, Scene > World, Workspace
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object > Data

NODE_NEWER_SHADING was introduced in e868b459bb however it should have been
added as a bitflag.
BKE_scene_uses_blender_eevee() was used in gpu_shader_output() as a workaround
for compatibility being poorly used.
Anyways this fixes this situation. This is necessary for an upcoming patch, even
though this is considered temporary - since the other NODE_*_SHADING values are
legacy from Blender Internal drawing.
Since the change to prevent shader recompilation at every update, we got
a regression when clearcoat was used.
Basically at the shader build time we would determine if the shader
needed clear coat, and if it didin't, it would build a different GLSL
program.
However if later the user updated the clearcoat value so that it would
then require the full clearcoat shader, the user wouldn't get it until
manually forcing the shader to recompile, or reopening the file.
We now handle the optimization in the GLSL code. That adds a minimum
overhead due to branching. But the overall performance seems unchanged
(tested on linux in AMD and NVidia).
