As far as I can tell, there is no technical reason why the B-Bone
segment thickness scaling can't be separated into two axes. The
only downside is the increase in complexity of the B-Bone settings,
but this is inevitable due to the increase in flexibility.
Updating the file is somewhat complicated though, because F-Curves
and drivers have to be duplicated and updated to the new names.

When in Axis alligned orthographic view a grid was always displayed.
With this change the user can enable/disable this grid.
The Grid is always visible and editable, but only rendered active when user is in quad view, or axis aligned ortho view.

Previously Spline IK provided only two choices: either scale the
length of the bone chain to fit the length of the curve, or don't
scale the bone in the Y dimension at all (ignoring effects of
actually fitting to the curve due to curvature and curve object
scale).
This patch adds a new option to use the pre-IK Y scale of the
bones to adjust their length when fitted to the curve, allowing
individual posing control over the length of the segments.

This commit adds support for drawing Dots strokes with a gradient factor to get artistic effects like watercolor.
Currently, the option is only supported by Dots materials, and in the future will be added to line strokes, but now there is a limitation on drawing engine and we will keep disabled on Line materials.
Also, added the option to align Dots and Boxes strokes textures aligned with the drawing path to get more fluid strokes.
Make the option enabled by default, and enable it in old files,
unless Show Extremes is enabled.
However, suppress it for the Timeline, because its View menu
doesn't include the option.

The popover for displaying gizmos now has options for
empty, light & camera gizmos.
Transform toggles are now checkboxes, which has the advantage that it's
more obvious they can be mixed however changing from one to another now
uses 3x clicks instead of a single click-drag action.
We might need a faster way to switch between transform types.
Based on feedback from animators, this is useful to keep as a view
option (as in 2.7x).
Now the transform gizmos can be enabled from the popover,
the tools still work for location/scale/rotation.
The transform tool has been removed.

This is something where there is no single correct behavior,
sometimes it's needed to ignore the crease to make mesh more
smooth. But sometimes crease is to be considered after first
subdivision surface: for example, when adding extra subdivisions
for render-time displacement.
Made it an option whether modifier needs to take crease into
account or not.
Existing files should be openable in the 2.7 compatible way,
to re-create an old behavior the options is to be manually
disabled in the modifier settings.

* It can be hidden by dragging it up/down.
* It can be at the top or bottom, independent of the header.
* It uses the color theme from the header.
* It does not change its color, when the area becomes active.
Currently, it is used in the text editor to display the file path.

A new parameter in the layer adjustment panel allows to define the color of the channel in Dopesheet.
This is needed when there are a lot of layers.
See D4623 for more details.
This makes it easier to exclude a surface from casting shadows and can be
used to manipulate the shadows even for opaque surfaces.
Versionning ensure that old behavior is transfered to new rendering logic.
The billboard particles were only used by Blender Internal. So until it is
supported by Cycles of Eevee there is no reason to keep it in the code and
UI.

Some uninitialized colormanagement data was breaking RNA acces for them,
exposed in batch preview management when generating previews for scenes
because we have to backup/restore scene and all its settings
before/after rendering it...
During screen to workspace/workspace-layout conversion, the first layout
of each workspace would be activated. For temporary full-screens, this
used to be the full-screen layout (IIRC), apparently it's now the
the layout to return to on "Back to Previous". So the 'previous' layout
would be activated, not the full-screen one.
When actually pressing "Back to Previous" now, the operator would first
free the active layout (which it assumes to be the temp full-screen -
wrongly in this case) and then try to activate the non-full-screen one,
causing use-after-free.
Convention was not to but after discussion on 918941483f we agree its
best to change the convention.
Names now mostly follow RNA.
Some exceptions:
- Use 'nodetrees' instead of 'nodegroups'
since the struct is called NodeTree.
- Use 'gpencils' instead of 'grease_pencil'
since 'gpencil' is a common abbreviation in the C code.
Other exceptions:
- Leave 'wm' as it's a list of one.
- Leave 'ipo' as is for versioning.
Requested by some users who prefer old wireframe precision.
Smooth wires are still enabled by defaults as they don't have a noticeable
perf impact.
Application restart is needed for changes to take effects.
As discussed with @billreynish this makes little sense now that we don't
have a dedicated textured mode. We don't have a superior texture or shaded
mode anymore and we also cannot mix different engines together (workbench
with eevee/lookdev).
The only feature it removes is the possibility to hide textures for certain
object in solid mode.
The option is separated from the solid mode color option.
Random color uses the same method as solid mode.
Selection state is indicated by a brighter color that is outside the
brightness range of the unselected state colors. The active state is
indicated by the outlines that is, now, still drawn in wireframe mode.
Coloring of the selection / active outline is not optimal because it
can look ugly in some cases of color combination. But the outline color
is using index range coloring so it's not trivial to change the color of
the outline per object. For now we use the same outline color used in solid
mode for consistency and also still add an emphasis on the selected objects.
The Single color option uses the theme color. Maybe it would be nice to
change the name of it in a latter commit to avoid confusion.
- Makes it possible to show a vertical line for every marker in the graph editor.
- Makes the marker line visiblity optional in the sequencer and graph editor.
