Move all mask-related fields from Object and OperationDepsNode
to Object_Runtime and IDDepsNode. Auto-apply DEG_TAG_GEOMETRY
if the mask changes after DEG rebuild. Update DEG API and all
code that uses it.
This fixes "source mesh data is not ready" errors from Data
Transfer modifier when parameters are changed in the UI after
the recent mesh_get_eval_final fix.

Among all the lines moved around, the general idea is quite simple.
Actually, there are two ideas implemented there.
First one, is when object itself is tagged for update, we tag its
point cache component for evaluation, which makes it so point cache
is properly reset. We do it implicitly because otherwise we'll need
to go everywhere and add explicit tag in almost all the properties.
Second thing is, we link all collider and force fields to a point
cache component using special type of link. This type of link only
allows flush if change is caused by a user update. This way reset
does not happen when change is caused due to animation, but will
properly happen when user causes indirect change to the objects
which are part of physics simulation.
- Use the original ID pointer for lookup in DEG_get_eval_flags_for_id.
- When the flags change after a DEG rebuild, tag the object for update.
- Instead of mixing int and short in different places, use uint32_t.
This fixes text not updating when a Follow Curve reference is set.
There were a few copies of the same few lines in depsgraph build code,
so it seems to be logical to introduce a function for it, and make it
accessible from C code for completeness.
As an example, register the mask needs of the Data Transfer modifier.
To find all effectors in the scene, we need to loop over all objects.
Doing this during depsgraph evaluation caused crashes because not all
objects are guaranteed to be evaluated yet.
To fix this, we now cache the relations as part of the dependency graph
build. As a bonus this also makes evaluation faster for big scenes,
since looping over all objects for each particle system is slow.
Fixes T55156.
After discussion with Sergey and Dalai, we have decided to remove
this option completely. We're getting to the point where it is almost
impossible to really use 2.8 without COW, and keeping the old option
running ends up diverting dev resources away towards tracking down
and fixing problems with a parallel system that will be going away.
OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.

It is possible to have non-NULL scene in graph which was never built yet,
this happens when ID is tagged for update for non-built graph.
Was causing crash opening deg_anim_pose_bones.
Reported by Mai in IRC, thanks!
It is possible to have situation when we need to both update relations and do
some updates on random IDs. This was only done before for objects using their
recalc field. This means, every update tag which did not fit into there would
have been lost after updating relations.
Now we do some smarter re-scheduling of operations after relations are updated.
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 is a final step of having proper ownership. Now selecting different
layers in the "top bar" will actually do what this is expected to do.
Surely, there are still things to be done under the hood, that will happen
in a less intrusive way.
Although this works by itself, it should actually happen after:
"Reshuffle collections base flags evaluation, make it so object is gathering
its base flags from collections."
Meanwhile we have one single hacky function (deg_flush_base_flags_and_settings)
to be removed once the task above is tackled.

It will not be possible to do that after depsgraph becomes more context
oriented. Which means, all code will need to explicitly tell which graph
to free,
Before it was a compile time option which was not very easy to use or test. Now
the project is getting more mature, so very soon we will be able to call for a
public tests of limited features.
The copy-on-write (which includes animation, modifiers) is enabled using
--enable-copy-on-write command line argument.
