Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
Better to have clear way to tell whether flag is parameter for
BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(), parameter for its callback function, or
return value from this callback function.
Based on usages so far:
- Split callback worker func in two, 'basic' and 'extended' versions. The former goes back
to the simplest verion, while the later keeps the 'userdata_chunk', and gets the thread_id too.
- Add use_threading to simple BLI_task_parallel_range(), turns out we need this pretty much systematically,
and allows to get rid of most usages of BLI_task_parallel_range_ex().
- Now BLI_task_parallel_range() expects 'basic' version of callback, while BLI_task_parallel_range_ex()
expectes 'extended' version of the callback.
All in all, this should make common usage of BLI_task_parallel_range simpler (less verbose), and add
access to advanced callback to thread id, which is mandatory in some (future) cases.
From recent experience, turns out we often do want to use something else than basic
range of parallelized forloop as control parameter over threads usage, so now BLI func
only takes a boolean, and caller defines best check for its own case.
Also, fix own stupidity, no need to define ID callback in case we only have objects,
calling code knows to fallback to `foreachObjectLink()` when `foreachIDLink()` is missing...
This commit integrates the work done so far on the new dependency graph system,
where goal was to replace legacy depsgraph with the new one, supporting loads of
neat features like:
- More granular dependency relation nature, which solves issues with fake cycles
in the dependencies.
- Move towards all-animatable, by better integration of drivers into the system.
- Lay down some basis for upcoming copy-on-write, overrides and so on.
The new system is living side-by-side with the previous one and disabled by
default, so nothing will become suddenly broken. The way to enable new depsgraph
is to pass `--new-depsgraph` command line argument.
It's a bit early to consider the system production-ready, there are some TODOs
and issues were discovered during the merge period, they'll be addressed ASAP.
But it's important to merge, because it's the only way to attract artists to
really start testing this system.
There are number of assorted documents related on the design of the new system:

* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/DependencyGraph
There are also some user-related information online:

Kudos to everyone who was involved into the project:
- Joshua "Aligorith" Leung -- design specification, initial code
- Lukas "lukas_t" Toenne -- integrating code into blender, with further fixes
- Sergey "Sergey" "Sharybin" -- some mocking around, trying to wrap up the
project and so
- Bassam "slikdigit" Kurdali -- stressing the new system, reporting all the
issues and recording/writing documentation.
- Everyone else who i forgot to mention here :)
A previous bugfix disabled the dynamic paint modifier for orco texture
coordinate evaluation of the modifier stack. However the MOD_APPLY_USECACHE
flag is not a good way to check if the modifier is evaluated for orcos.
Instead I've added a MOD_APPLY_ORCO flag. Also removed a bunch of
applyModifierEM callbacks, none of them served a purpose except for the
subsurf modifier.
generator with a local one. It's not thread safe and will not give repeatable
results, so in most cases it should not be used.
Also fixes#34992 where the noise texture of a displacement modifier was not
properly random in opengl animation render, because the seed got reset to a
fixed value by an unrelated function while for final render it changed each
frame.
