Validate some cases using G_MAIN instead (I don't think we want to work
on any other Main than G.main one when registering/unregistering nodes
etc.).
And when freeing, all ID not in Main shall now be tagged accordingly, so
we *should* not need to do that stupi search over all ntrees in G.main
to check wether we have to free it ourself or not!
This introduces a new depsgraph API for getting updated datablocks,
rather than getting it from bpy.data.
* depsgraph.ids_updated gives a list of all datablocks in the depsgraph
which have been updated.
* depsgraph.id_type_updated('TYPE') is true if any datablock of the given
type has been added, removed or modified.
More API updates are coming to properly handle multiple depsgraphs and
finer update granularity, but this should make Cycles work again.
This patch adds support for IES files, a file format that is commonly used to store the directional intensity distribution of light sources.
The new IES node is supposed to be plugged into the Strength input of the Emission node of the lamp.
Since people generating IES files do not really seem to care about the standard, the parser is flexible enough to accept all test files I have tried.
Some common weirdnesses are distributing values over multiple lines that should go into one line, using commas instead of spaces as delimiters and adding various useless stuff at the end of the file.
The user interface of the node is similar to the script node, the user can either select an internal Text or load a file.
Internally, IES files are handled similar to Image textures: They are stored in slots by the LightManager and each unique IES is assigned to one slot.
The local coordinate system of the lamp is used, so that the direction of the light can be changed. For UI reasons, it's usually best to add an area light,
rotate it and then change its type, since especially the point light does not immediately show its local coordinate system in the viewport.

Patch D3205 by Kanzaki Wataru
Only implemented in Eevee for now. Collapse a closure to RGBA so we can
do NPR stuff on the resulting color.
Use an emission shader to convert the color back to a closure.
Doing this will break PBR and will kill any SSR and SSS effects the shader
the shader rely on. That said screen space refraction and ambient occlusion
are supported due to the way they are implemented.
The workaround removal was wrong, the whole id->adt of a local
copy is to be NULL.
But now instead of modifying original datablock, we tell library
manager to not copy animation data.
Actions shouldn't be copying by new library management code.
Or at least should be possible to make it to not copy actions
or do unneeded user management.
This way we avoid modification of original data which could
and does cause threading conflict with copy-on-write which
could be happening for viewport.
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.
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.

Similar to the Principled BSDF, this should make it easier to set up volume
materials. Smoke and fire can be rendererd with just a single principled
volume node, the appropriate attributes will be used when available. The node
also works for simpler homogeneous volumes like water or mist.

- When returning the number of items in a collection use BLI_*_len()
- Keep _size() for size in bytes.
- Keep _count() for data structures that don't store length
(hint this isn't a simple getter).
See P611 to apply instead of manually resolving conflicts.
This adds midlevel and object/world space for displacement, and a
vector displacement node with tangent/object/world space, midlevel
and scale.
Note that tangent space vector displacement still is not exactly
compatible with maps created by other software, this will require
changes to the tangent computation.

I was calling the ntree syncing function too late. So the index of the layer
was -1 since it was no longer in the ListBase, making all RenderLayer nodes
to decrease their respective `custom1` (even going to negative sometimes).
This converts object space height to world space displacement, to be
linked to the new vector displacement material output.

This would lead to sock.default_value pointing to the wrong data type,
possibly causing crashes. Unfortunately, this bug will still exist for
older Blender versions that try to load newer files, which makes
changing the type of a node socket problematic.
The algorithm averages normals from nearby surfaces. It uses the same
sampling strategy as BSSRDFs, casting rays along the normal and two
orthogonal axes, and combining the samples with MIS.
The main concern here is that we are introducing raytracing inside
shader evaluation, which could be quite bad for GPU performance and
stack memory usage. In practice it doesn't seem so bad though.
Note that using this feature can easily slow down renders 20%, and
that if you care about performance then it's better to use a bevel
modifier. Mainly this is useful for baking, and for cases where the
mesh topology makes it difficult for the bevel modifier to work well.

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.
The is following: split copy on write update for node trees, and if we are only
tagging for uniform buffer update we skip whole datablock copy and only invoke
copy default_values form original nodetree to a copied one.
Thing which i'm not sure is: whether we need to use different branches in graph
itself to control such a conditional behavior, or whether we need to store tag
somewhere in the dependency graph. There are obviously cons and pros in both
approaches, and need to think about this. Maybe with more examples it becomes
more obvious which way is better.
This only fixes manual tweaks for now, animation support is coming.
Since we started supporting the (Cycles) Material Output old files
stopped working. There is no reason to keep the original Eevee material
otuput anymore.
It includes doversion for old files.
