The main use one can imagine for this is adding tweak controls to
parts of a model that are already deformed by multiple other major
bones. It is natural to expect such locations to deform as if the
tweaks aren't there by default; however currently there is no easy
way to make a bone follow multiple other bones.
This adds a new constraint that implements the math behind the Armature
modifier, with support for explicit weights, bone envelopes, and dual
quaternion blending. It can also access bones from multiple armatures
at the same time (mainly because it's easier to code it that way.)
This also fixes dquat_to_mat4, which wasn't used anywhere before.

It was getting too impractical to call BKE_paint_brush_tool_info
which needed to lookup the scene pointers.
Now each store tool offset and brush mode in 'Paint.runtime'
The toolbar now shows brush types, the brush selector now
only shows brushes matching the current tool type.
Details:
- Add's Paint.tool_slots (used by the toolbar).
- Removed custom grease pencil brush tool code.
- Bumped subversion.
See T57526 for details.
Full redesign of the cache system used for drawing strokes and handle derived frame data.
Before, the cache was saved in bGPdata and a hash was used to manage several objects with the same datablock.
Old design made the use of particles very inefficient and prone to bugs and segment faults, and especially when this was mixed with onion skinning and multiple objects using same datablock. Also, there were some conflicts with the depsgrah logic (the old design was done before despgraph was in place) that made the use of hash not working.
The new design saves the data in the object runtime struct and avoid the use of any hash to find the right data. This improves the speed and reduce a lot the complexity of the code, memory allocation, hash overload and adds full support for particles and reused datablocks.
The particles can reuse the modifiers and shader effects of the original grease pencil object.
The appearance is a bit different than 2.79 where the flame was just added
on top of the smoke without correct blending.
Now it's much more realistic and using volumetric integration. You can see
the smoke actually masking the flame.
The other difference is that the flame color was not using proper color
managed blending. Now with the use of filmic it shows bright yellow.
This could be adjusted and displayed as a user parameter in the future.
Custom handle settings actually affect the B-Bone rest shape,
so they should be changed in Edit mode rather than Pose mode.
This is necessary to be able to display the correct rest shape
of the bone in Edit Mode.
Also, instead of flags, introduce an enum to specify the handle
operation modes, so that new ones could be added later.

The goal here is to make app templates usable for default templates
that we can ship with Blender. These only have a custom startup.blend
currently and so are quite limited compared to app templates that fully
customize Blender.
But still it seems like the same kind of concept where we should be
sharing the code and UI. It is useful to be able to save a startup.blend
per template, and I can imagine some scripting being useful in the future
as well.
Changes made:
* File > New and Ctrl+N now list the templates, replacing a separate
Application Templates menu that was not as easy to discover.
* File menu now shows name of active template above Save Startup File
and Load Factory Settings to indicate these are saved/loaded per
template.
* The "Default" template was renamed to "General".
* Workspaces can now be added from any of the template startup.blend
files when clicking the (+) button in the topbar.
* User preferences are now fully shared between app templates, unless
the template includes a custom userpref.blend. I think this will be
useful in general, not all app templates need their own keymaps for
example.
* Previously Save User Preferences would save the current app template
and then Blender would start using that template by default. I've
disabled this, to me it seems it was unintentional, or at least not
clear at all that saving user preferences also makes the current

Recently @sergey found that hard-coding evaluation of certain very
common driver expressions without calling the Python interpreter
produces a 30-40% performance improvement. Since hard-coding is
obviously not suitable for production, I implemented a proper
parser and interpreter for simple arithmetic expressions in C.
The evaluator supports +, -, *, /, (), ==, !=, <, <=, >, >=,
and, or, not, ternary if; driver variables, frame, pi, True, False,
and a subset of standard math functions that seem most useful.
Booleans are represented as numbers, since within the supported
operation set it seems to be impossible to distinguish True/False
from 1.0/0.0. Boolean operations properly implement lazy evaluation
with jumps, and comparisons support chaining like 'a < b < c...'.
Expressions are parsed into a very simple stack machine program
that can then be safely evaluated in multiple threads.

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.

https://code.blender.org/2017/12/drawing-2d-animation-in-blender-2-8/https://code.blender.org/2018/07/grease-pencil-status-update/
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.
Add new tag to bSound (runtime flags), and make read code to set a 'no
reload waveform' new tag, since it uses a mapping to get existing
waveform in undo case...
This patch adds a new matte node that implements the Cryptomatte specification.
It also incluces a custom eye dropper that works outside of a color picker.
Cryptomatte export for the Cycles render engine will be in a separate patch.

This does not fix the smokesim. It only port the drawing method.
The Object mode engine is in charge of rendering the velocity debugging.
Things left to do:
- Flame rendering.
- Color Ramp coloring of volume data.
- View facing slicing (for now it's only doing sampling starting from the
volume bounds which gives a squarish look)
- Add option to enable dithering (currently on by default.
This separate probe rendering from viewport rendering, making possible to
run the baking in another thread (non blocking and faster).
The baked lighting is saved in the blend file. Nothing needs to be
recomputed on load.
There is a few missing bits / bugs:
- Cache cannot be saved to disk as a separate file, it is saved in the DNA
for now making file larger and memory usage higher.
- Auto update only cubemaps does update the grids (bug).
- Probes cannot be updated individually (considered as dynamic).
- Light Cache cannot be (re)generated during render.
The approach of setting 'refresh' flags on the modifier, and performing
the associated actions when the modifier is being evaluated, is a bad
one. Instead, we use the separation of the original and the evaluated
copy to 'refresh' certain things (because they simply aren't set at all
on the original). Other actions are now done directly with BKE_ocean_xxx
functions on the original data, intead of during evaluation.
The flag was only used in readfile.c, and resulted in a delayed call to
BKE_ocean_add(); this call is now immediately made instead as it's not
very expensive.
