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 patch moves all the functionality previously in SceneRenderLayer to SceneLayer.
If we want to rename some of these structs now would be a good time to do it, before they are in SceneLayer.
Everything should be working, though I will test things further tomorrow. Once this is committed depsgraph can get
rid of the workaround added in rna_Main_meshes_new_from_object and finish whatever this patch was preventing from being finished.
This patch also adds a few placeholders for the overrides (samples, ...). These are obviously not working, so some unittests that rely on 'lay', and 'zmask' will fail.
This patch does not addressed the change of moving samples to ViewRender (I have this as a separate patch and needs some separate discussion).
Following next is the individual note of the individual parts that were committed.
Note 1: It is up to Cycles to still get rid of exclude_layer internally.
Note 2: Cycles still need to handle its own doversion for the use_layer_samples cases and
(1) Remove the override as it is
(2) Add a new override (scene.cycles.samples) if scene.cycles.use_layer_samples != IGNORE
Respecting the expected behaviour when scene.cycles.use_layer_samples == BOUNDED.
Note 3: Cycles still need to implement the per-object holdout
(similar to how we do shadow catcher).
Note 4: There are parts of the old (Blender Internal) rendering pipeline that is still
using lay, e.g., in shi->lay.
Honestly it will be easier to purge the entire Blender Internal code away instead of taking things from it bit by bit.

FSAA sample files in EXR format are no longer always updated (after some
changes between 2.73 and 2.74 releases), and the reported bug was caused
by old samples from a previous frame that were being merged by mistake.
The present revision addresses the documented issue by entirely skipping
the rendering of auto-generated scenes when there are no Freestyle strokes
to render, which suppresses sample merging of the render layers that were
not rendered.
The reported crash case seems to be caused by freeing compiled Python
objects in a thread. Now this issue is avoided by allocating a buffer to
store a Python script and using BPY_string_exec() to run the script. This
makes it unnecessary to repeatedly create and destroy Text data blocks.
Many thanks to Campbell Barton for his help on the bug fix.
The reported problem was due to a special case where there are no strokes
to be rendered. Since rendering an empty scene is a waste of time, the issue
was addressed here by skipping the stroke rendering process entirely.
Previously individual strokes were represented by distinct mesh objects
no matter how many vertices and materials each stroke has, although
the vertex and material counts can be quite small depending on the input
scene data. Now stroke meshes are packed into a minimum number of
mesh objects, so as to reduce the overheads of Blender object creation.
The view map is mostly treated as a read-only data structure by line stylization
operations (i.e., selection, chaining, splitting, sorting and stroke creation). The
only exception is the chaining operation in some cases where insertion of extra
FEdge objects is necessary to ensure the continuity of underlying FEdges from
which a chain is constructed.
The present revision addresses the removal of extra FEdges so to keep the view
map clean and suitable for reuse in subsequent render frames.
New render layer option named "View map cache" is added to reuse a
previously computed view map for subsequent rendering. The cache is
automatically updated when the mesh geometry of the input 3D scene has
been changed.
This functionality offers a major performance boost for Freestyle
animation rendering when camera-space mesh geometry is static, as well
as for repeated still renders with updates of line stylization options.
Although the "View map cache" toggle is a render layer option, the cache
memory is shared by all render layers and scenes. This means that if
Freestyle is used for two or more render layers (possibly in different
scenes through the compositor), then the cached view map for one render
layer is replaced by a new view map for another render layer and hence
no performance gain is expected.
The stored context object was used for creation of shade nodes. A closer look at the
node system showed that the context is not actually used when shader nodes are
added to a shader node tree. Relying on this fact, now a NULL pointer is passed to
nodeAddStaticNode() instead of the stored bContext pointer.
Removed the previous changes for passing a line style through the Controller, and
revised the BlenderTextureShader to assign the shader node tree of a line style
(if specified) to strokes. This way the assignment of shading nodes can be done
through both the Freestyle GUI and Python scripting.
Now the shader node tree of a line style ID datablock is used to define textures
as well as their mapping and influence.
TODO: Textures alpha channel mapping and influence.
TODO: Blend mode in the Output Line Style shader node.
The scene file provided by the problem report has many degenerate faces coming from
a particle system. These zero-area faces were not expected in the ray-casting line visibility
algorithms of Freestyle. Now degenerate faces are properly excluded from the imported
mesh data and not fed to the line visibility algorithms.
(See commit e1771e72fbbf828dbf5bed871b814288389f3611 for more detail of
the problem).
Made changes to intern/view_map/Interface0D.h and intern/python/Director.h to
avoid #include <Python.h> and keep non-Python header files independent of it.
Addition of the path to the Freestyle Python API modules to 'sys.path' was delayed until
the first Freestyle rendering, so that any import attempt of the modules in the Python
Console always failed. Now the update of 'sys.path' is done at Blender start-up.
This allows the Freestyle-specific modules to be imported without running Freestyle,
facilitating quick interactive testing in the Console.
Now add_freestyle() in pipeline.c takes a second argument to enable/disable
stroke rendering. When stroke rendering is disabled, the function allocates
data structures but does not perform stroke rendering. The allocated data
structures (mostly left unpopulated with data elements) are intended to allow
for the Read Full Sample Layers (Shift-R) command in the compositor.
A crash in the Freestyle renderer was reported by Ton on IRC with a stack trace
below. Note that #2 is in Freestyle, whereas #1 is in the compositor. The problem
was observed in a debug build on OS X 10.7 (gcc 4.2, openmp disabled, no llvm).

Apparently a name conflict between the two Blender modules is taking place.
The present commit hence intends to address it by putting all the Freestyle C++
classes in the namespace 'Freestyle'. This revision will also prevent potential
name conflicts with other Blender modules in the future.
Special thanks to Lukas Toenne for the help with C++ namespace.
