The depsgraph was always created within a fixed evaluation context. Passing
both risks the depsgraph and evaluation context not matching, and it
complicates the Python API where we'd have to expose both which is not so
easy to understand.
This also removes the global evaluation context in main, which assumed there
to be a single active scene and view layer.

This is a part of copy-on-write sanitization, to avoid all the checks
which were attempting to keep sub-data pointers intact.
Point is: ID pointers never change for CoW datablocks, but nested
data pointers might change when updating existing copy.
Solution: Only bind ID data pointers and index of sub-data.
This will make CoW datablock 7update function was easier in 2.8.
In master we were only using pose channel pointers in callbacks,
this is exactly what this commit addresses. A linear lookup array
is created on pose evaluation init and is thrown away afterwards.
One thing we might consider doing is to keep indexed array of
poses, similar to chanhash.

- Undo that changes modes currently asserts,
since undo is now screen data.
Most likely we will change how object mode and workspaces work
since it's not practical/maintainable at the moment.
- Removed view_layer from particle settings
(wasn't needed and complicated undo).
This makes code closer to id_override/assent-engine ones, which
introduce a new type of linked data, and hence reserve
ID_IS_LINKED_DATABLOCK to real linked datablocks.
2.8x branch added bContext arg in many places,
pass eval-context instead since its not simple to reason about what
what nested functions do when they can access and change almost anything.
Also use const to prevent unexpected modifications.
This fixes crash loading files with shadows,
since off-screen buffers use a NULL context for rendering.
Those functions did not use evaluation context.
Also fixed lots of unused variables warnings caused by commented out code which
needs to be ported away from DerivedMesh and to evaluation context.
Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
This was causing proxies updates on every frame, even if they
do not really change. Additionally, it was causing second round
of armature update when used from inside dupligroup (viewport
ensures all objects from dupligroup are up to date before draw).
Idea is to replace hard-to-track (id->lib != NULL) 'is linked datablock' check everywhere in Blender
by a macro doing the same thing. This will allow to easily spot those checks in future, and more importantly,
to easily change it (see work done in asset-engine branch).
Note: did not touch to readfile.c, since there most of the time 'id->lib' check actually concerns the pointer,
and not a check whether ID is linked or not. Will have a closer look at it later.

This is what old dependency graph was doing and apparently this avoids some updates,
however it's not really clear why those nodes are considering done. Maybe just because
of the way how relations are working. But needs a closer investigation.
This commit integrates the work done so far on the new dependency graph system,
where goal was to replace legacy depsgraph with the new one, supporting loads of
neat features like:
- More granular dependency relation nature, which solves issues with fake cycles
in the dependencies.
- Move towards all-animatable, by better integration of drivers into the system.
- Lay down some basis for upcoming copy-on-write, overrides and so on.
The new system is living side-by-side with the previous one and disabled by
default, so nothing will become suddenly broken. The way to enable new depsgraph
is to pass `--new-depsgraph` command line argument.
It's a bit early to consider the system production-ready, there are some TODOs
and issues were discovered during the merge period, they'll be addressed ASAP.
But it's important to merge, because it's the only way to attract artists to
really start testing this system.
There are number of assorted documents related on the design of the new system:

* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/DependencyGraph
There are also some user-related information online:

Kudos to everyone who was involved into the project:
- Joshua "Aligorith" Leung -- design specification, initial code
- Lukas "lukas_t" Toenne -- integrating code into blender, with further fixes
- Sergey "Sergey" "Sharybin" -- some mocking around, trying to wrap up the
project and so
- Bassam "slikdigit" Kurdali -- stressing the new system, reporting all the
issues and recording/writing documentation.
- Everyone else who i forgot to mention here :)
This commit only adds callbacks which then later be used with major dependency
graph commit, keeping the upcoming commit more clean to follow.
Should be no functional changes so far still.
Currently it is just moving existing functions into a new file,
but in the future those new files will be grown much more due
to upcoming more granular scene updates.
Should be no functional changes.
