Before, the evaluation of modifers were done in draw manager. The reason of the old design was grease pencil was designed before depsgraph was in place.
This commit moves this logic to depsgraph to follow general design and reduce Draw Manager complexity. Also, this is required in order to use modifiers in Edit modes.
Really, there is nothing really new in the creation of derived data, only the logic has been moved to depsgraph, but the main logic is the same. In order to get a reference to the original stroke and points, a pointer is added to Runtime data as part of the evaluated data. These pointers allow to know and use the original data.
As the modifiers now are evaluated in Depsgraph, the evaluated stroke is usable in Edit modes, so now it's possible to work with the evaluated version instead to use a "ghost" of the final image over the original geometry as work today.

Two issues here:
- Evaluated object data is to only be updated for selection only after modifier
stack is done its job. Otherwise it's possible to have selection batch update
called on an input data, at the same time as original object data is being
evaluated.
- If object's modifier stack did not create its own evaluated mesh (in case
when there is no effective modifiers, for example) can not update selection
on object's data, as it might cause threading issues between objects sharing
same data.
Always compute CD_ORCO undeformed coordinates now for rendering, same as before.
There is still a refresh issue to be fixed, when switching from solid to textured
mode in the viewport.
Computing such undeformed coordinates can be expensive and is not actually needed
if the mesh is only using e.g. UV maps. This was the same in 2.79, at least now we
are skipping the computation when there are no deforming mdifiers on the mesh.
This is old logic that no longer makes sense in the new depsgraph, and causes
issues when multiple threads try to modify the same bevel object.

After recent changes BASE_VISIBLE was not always disabled properly when the
object is hidden. This refactors the code a bit to hopefully be more clear.
We already have different storages for cddata of verts, edges etc.,
'simply' do the same for the mask flags we use all around Blender code
to request some data, or limit some operation to some layers, etc.
Reason we need this is that some cddata types (like Normals) are
actually shared between verts/polys/loops, and we don’t want to generate
clnors everytime we request vnors!
As a side note, this also does final fix to T59338, which was the
trigger for this patch (need to request computed loop normals for
another mesh than evaluated one).

This allows to update base flags to a proper state then object's restriction
flags are changed, without requiring to re-evaluate an entire tree of flags.
Some old unused flags are were removed by this change, and also disabling
menu items might not work the same as before. This is something we can bring
back if it's really needed (the way how flags are handled did change since
that interface code was done anyway, so code was looking weird anyway).

No need to have iterator loop in the view layer evaluation,
this only makes it more difficult to have base flags covered
by the dependency graph.
Other good thing is that we don't need to worry about whether
base has been removed from the evaluated view layer or not.

The dependency graph now handles updating image users to point to the current
frame, and tags images to be refreshed on the GPU. The image editor user is
still updated outside of the dependency graph.
We still do not support multiple image users using a different current frame
in the same image, same as 2.7. This may require adding a GPU image texture
cache to keep memory usage under control. Things like rendering an animation
while the viewport stays fixed at the current frame works though.
This was caused by curves pointing to each other
creating a cyclic dependency.
While the dependency graph detects this, generating a mesh for render
recursively generates data which cashes in this case.
Add in a check to detect cyclic links.
Note, this bug exists in 2.7x too - but only crashes on render
since 2.7x didn't use 'for_render' when converting data.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.

This removes a bunch of animation/driver evaluations and recalc flags that
should be redundant in the new depsgraph, and were incorrectly affecting
the evaluated scene in a permanent way.
Still two cases that could be removed if the depsgraph is improved, in
BKE_object_handle_data_update and BKE_cachefile_update_frame.
For physics subframe interpolation there are also still calls to
BKE_object_where_is_calc that should ideally be removed as well, though
they are not known to cause keyframing bugs.

This commit makes it so curve path parent solving accepts an explicit
arguments for both time and curve speed flag, making it so we don't
have to mock around with scene's frame.
One unfortunate issue still is that if the instancing object is used
for something else, we might be running into a threading conflict.
Possible solution would be to create a temp copy of an object, but
then it will be an issue of preventing drivers from modifying other
datablocks.
At least the original issue is fixed now, and things behave same as
in older Blender version. Additionally, the global variable which
was defining curve speed flag behavior is gone now!
This restores the object->data to a non-modifier evaluated state.
So this allow us to change evaluated object modifier stack directly and
get BKE_mesh_new_from_object() for the evalauted object.
The issue was caused by transflag set in geometry evaluation
never copied back top original object.
Now we have a dedicated operation which does all sort copy
back to original object, so we don't have to worry about
atomic assignments or what gets set where.
Still need to move boundbox to the same function, but it
needs some careful doublechecking first.
Not exactly sure why we did not have cached displist for bevel object
here... But anyway, that conversion operation should really happen
outside of depsgraph evaluation area, so makes sense to do it as when
generating geometry for rendering, imho. Also solves issues like loosing
hidden parts of the curve/surface, etc. Still using viewport resolution
for curves, though.
Bring back per-viewport localview. This is based on Blender 2.79.
We have a limit of 16 different local view viewports.
We are using both the numpad /, as well as the regular /.
Missing features:
* Hack to make sure lights are always visible.
* Make rendered mode with external engines to support this as well
(probably just need to support this in the RNA iterators).
* Support over 16 viewports by taking existing viewports out of local view.
The code can use a cleanup pass in the future to unify the test to see
if an object is visible (or we can use TESTBASE in more places).
Boundbox does not depend on transform and only need geometry
component.
This change solves possible race condition accessing geometry
data and allocating/assigning pointers.
Based on disacussion in IRC with @mano-wii and @brecht.
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.
Also fixes T55769 Dimension Not properly work
and T56064 Blender crashes on selecting text-object
We decided to go to the easy way in the end, simply enforcing computing
BBox of all objects when using 'active' depsgraph, and copying back to
orig object (same as transform matrix, etc.).
