Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
These were used as UI buttons during development. If such parameters are
needed again later they should instead be added in the (now global)
SimDebugData and made accessible with a dev addon or so.
This way it doesn't have to be stored as DNA runtime pointers or passed
down as a function argument. Currently there is now no property or
button to enable debugging, this will be added again later.
to support multiple hash identifiers.
Using explicit hashing functions for every sim debug call defeats the
purpose of having a quick feedback system. Now this can be done simply
by passing an arbitrary number of hash inputs (integers) at the end of
the function calls, which are then combined by a system of variadic
macros (based on the ELEM feature). Up to 8 identifiers are supported
currently, but more could be added easily if needed.

This uses the central difference method (instead of combined forward/
backward difference), which makes it easier to correctly account for
grid borders.
samples.
This is just an intermediate method to make sure the density is valid.
Eventually the closest-point method should be used, but for testing
the poisson solver this is easier to debug.

This allows setting a target density which the fluid simulation will
take into account as an additional term in the pressure Poisson
equation. Based on two papers
"Detail Preserving Continuum Simulation of Straight Hair" (McAdams et al. 2009)
and
"Two-way Coupled SPH and Particle Level Set Fluid Simulation" (Losasso et al. 2008)
Currently the target pressure is specified directly, but it will be
a lot more convenient to define this in terms of a geometric value such
as "number of hairs per area" (combined with hair "thickness").

on the grid.
This uses the Eigen conjugate-gradient solver to solve the implicit
Poisson equation for the pressure Laplacian:
div(grad(p)) = div(v)
As described in "Detail Preserving Continuum Simulation of Straight Hair"
(McAdams, Selle, 2009).
