This patch implements the paper "Regularized Kelvinlets: Sculpting Brushes based on Fundamental Solutions of Elasticity" https://graphics.pixar.com/library/Kelvinlets/paper.pdf
It includes grab, biscale grab, triscale grab, scale and twist.
All deformation modes are accessible under the same tool. This helps to keep the code organized and it should not make any difference to the user when a better brush management system is implemented.

This brush is similar to the draw brush but it deforms the mesh from the original coordinates. When used with the sharper curve presets it has a much more pleasant crease/cut behavior than any of the other brushes. This is useful for creating cloth wrinkles, stylized hair or hard surface edges.

This commit includes the new brush cursor, active vertex updates and the normal radius brush property for all sculpt brushes.
-The new brush cursor previews the real stroke radius over the mesh and the sampled sculpt normal.
-The active vertex is used in sculpt tools and brushes as a starting point for an operation, similar to a preselection. It is also mirrored following the enabled symmetry options to preview the stroke symmetry.
-The normal radius brush property limits the radius that is going to be used to sample the sculpt normal and area center. It controls how closely the cursor follows the surface and it improves the behavior of most brushes, making them suitable for hard surface sculpting.

This patch introduces the same presets that are used for proportional editing in the brush falloff menu. The user can select any of these presets or use the regular custom falloff curve. The presets are hardcoded formulas, so the falloff curve is not used when they are active.
This change improves the general feeling of the brushes and it is more convenient and simpler to use. The CUSTOM curve option should now be used in the case that an unusual deformation is needed, in other cases, the hardcoded curve presets should be the default.
The smooth curve presets is a must in the grab brush, as it fixes the deformation issue with the current custom curve setting. The user may try to adjust the deformation by tweaking the curve, but it is nearly impossible to replicate this desired behavior.

Other brushes that are included in the sculpt branch also rely on this as they need specific hardcoded falloffs to produce the desired effect.

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.
Using GP_BRUSH_MATERIAL_PINNED to switch between active material and brush material, instead of updating all brushes on active material changes. This will allow brushes to have no material and therefore to not inflate the user count.
This fix T62465.

This commit groups several options that were tested in grease pencil branch:
- Changes to fill algorithms and improves, specially in small areas and stroke corners.
New options has been added in order to define how the fill is working and internally there are optimizations in detect the small areas in the extremes.
Kudos to @charlie for coding this fill improvements.
- New 3D cursor view plane option.
Now it's possible to lock the drawing plane to the 3D cursor and use the 3D cursor orientation. This allows more flexibility when you are drawing and reduce the need to create geometry to draw over surfaces.
- Canvas Grid now can be locked to 3D cursor.
- New option to reproject stroke using 3D cursor.
- Small tweaks and fixes.
Changes reviewed by @pepeland and @mendio
Use the term "AFTER" instead of "OFS" since it wasn't obvious these
macros operate on everything after the struct member passed.
Avoid casting to non-const types when only reading.
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.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
This helps to generate cleaner topology and define sharp features for dynamic
topology. Best used on relatively low-poly meshes, it is not needed as much
for high detail areas and has a performance impact.

- Replace BKE_brush_getactive_gpencil -> BKE_paint_brush
(no need for per-paint-type brush access).
- Rename TOT_GP_EDITBRUSH_TYPES -> GP_EDITBRUSH_TYPE_MAX
(avoid sharing prefix w/ unrelated constants).
- Rename instances of `GP_EditBrush_Data` to 'gp_brush'
(`Brush` is typically called 'brush').
Each mode had its own logic for initializing paint structs,
move to a single function.
Also remove "BKE_brush_get_gpencil_paint", entering grease pencil
mode is responsible for ensuring the data is created.
The toolbar now shows brush types, the brush selector now
only shows brushes matching the current tool type.
Details:
- Add's Paint.tool_slots (used by the toolbar).
- Removed custom grease pencil brush tool code.
- Bumped subversion.
See T57526 for details.
After some artist feedback the material selection was not clear.
Now, the material can be selected in the top bar or in the properties panel.
1) If the material is selected in properties panel, all Brushes except pinned will be assigned to this material.
2) If the material is selected in the brush, the properties panel is updated to set the active material.
Added a new Pin icon to keep locked the material to one brush
