Previously, it was only forbidden to delete the last scene. This can
lead to the situation where a .blend file only contains linked scenes.
This is problematic, because linked data might not always be available
or can be removed from a .blend file without having an additional check
for remaining scenes.
Now there always has to be at least one local scene.

Approximately 138 changes in the spelling of compound words
and proper names like "Light Probe", "Shrink/Fatten", "Face Map".
In many cases, hyphens were used where they aren't correct, like
"re-fit". Other common changes include:
- "Datablock" -> "data-block"
- "Floating point" -> "floating-point"
- "Ngons" -> "n-gons"
These changes help give the language used in the interface
a consistent, more professional feel.

The geometry-nodes features no longer depend on the point cloud object.
Therefore the point cloud object, although important in the future, can
be postponed until we have render and edit mode fully working.
This reverts commits:
* ea74ed5a7a.
* dc614c68ef.
Those two features are not directly related and one might be activated
in master earlier than the other.
WITH_PARTICLE_NODES was removed, because we continue the project
under the name "Geometry Nodes".
For 2.90 release this should not be exposed in the RNA API.
In master this needs to be ON by default, that's all.

This replaces the cmake options `WITH_NEW_OBJECT_TYPES` and
`WITH_NEW_SIMULATION_TYPE` with two experimental userpref settings:
* `use_new_particle_system`: Enables the point cloud type and the simulation editor.
* `use_new_hair_type`: Only displays the add-operator in the add menu for now.
Note, in the current state you can't do anything productive with the new particle
system or the new hair type. Features will be added step by step in the upcoming
weeks and months.

This data block will be the container for simulation node trees.
It will be used for the new particle node system (T73324).
The new data block has the type `ID_SIM`.
It is not visible to users and other developers by default yet.
To enable it, activate the cmake option `WITH_NEW_SIMULATION_TYPE`.
New simulation data blocks can be created by running `bpy.data.simulations.new("name")`.

Mpving utils from idcode to idtype proved to be somewhat painful for
some reasons, but now all looks good.
Had to add a fake/empty shell for the special snowflake too,
`ID_LINK_PLACEHOLDER/INDEX_ID_NULL`...
### Description of the problem
Until now, it is only possible to correctly add a lightprobe in python via an operator:
`bpy.ops.object.lightprobe_add()`
### Description of the proposed solution
The idea of this patch is to fix the lack of consistency lightprobe creation without operator.
It allow creation of different lightprobe type directly via `bpy.data.lightprobes.new(name, type)` (such as for curves).
In order to make it possible I had to:
1. Add a function `BKE_lightprobe_configure` in charge of lightprobe settings configuration (avoid code redundancy)
2. Allow an object to take lightprobe datablock as data during is initialization.
### A short example of this patch usage
```
lp = bpy.data.lightprobes.new('some_name','PLANAR')
bpy.data.objects.new('toto', lp)
```

This patch contains the work that I did during my week at the Code Quest - adding support for tiled images to Blender.
With this patch, images now contain a list of tiles. By default, this just contains one tile, but if the source type is set to Tiled, the user can add additional tiles. When acquiring an ImBuf, the tile to be loaded is specified in the ImageUser.
Therefore, code that is not yet aware of tiles will just access the default tile as usual.
The filenames of the additional tiles are derived from the original filename according to the UDIM naming scheme - the filename contains an index that is calculated as (1001 + 10*<y coordinate of the tile> + <x coordinate of the tile>), where the x coordinate never goes above 9.
Internally, the various tiles are stored in a cache just like sequences. When acquired for the first time, the code will try to load the corresponding file from disk. Alternatively, a new operator can be used to initialize the tile similar to the New Image operator.
The following features are supported so far:
- Automatic detection and loading of all tiles when opening the first tile (1001)
- Saving all tiles
- Adding and removing tiles
- Filling tiles with generated images
- Drawing all tiles in the Image Editor
- Viewing a tiled grid even if no image is selected
- Rendering tiled images in Eevee
- Rendering tiled images in Cycles (in SVM mode)
- Automatically skipping loading of unused tiles in Cycles
- 2D texture painting (also across tiles)
- 3D texture painting (also across tiles, only limitation: individual faces can not cross tile borders)
- Assigning custom labels to individual tiles (drawn in the Image Editor instead of the ID)
- Different resolutions between tiles
There still are some missing features that will be added later (see T72390):
- Workbench engine support
- Packing/Unpacking support
- Baking support
- Cycles OSL support
- many other Blender features that rely on images
Thanks to Brecht for the review and to all who tested the intermediate versions!

This reverts commits 54fd8176d7, 4c5becb6b1 and 8f578150e.
Those kind of commits must be reviewed and approved by project owners.
That one:
* Broke Collada building by not properly updating all calls to modified
function.
* Broke *whole* ID management by not properly updating library_query.c.
And in general, I am strongly against backward ID pointers, those are
*always* a serious PITA for ID management. Sometimes they cannot be
avoided, but in general other ways to get that kind of info should be
investigated first.
Text datablocks should always have a 'single user' flag set, and they
usually do not have any user (since neither text editor itself, nor
Freestyle usage are text users - the second is odd btw...), the only one
am aware of is the script node (e.g. for OSL).
Add text case was simply not doing anything, so added.
Load text case was doing things in inversed logic (setting user count to
zero in BKE, then setting 'real user' flag in ED code). Made it the
other way around (BKE ID creation code should not care about usercount
usually, this is up to higher-level code to decide what to do
(operators, RNA...).
Note: tried to check all cases, but there might very well be some more
hidden bugs here...
This commit extends dependency graph API with an argument which
denotes that all custom data layers are to be preserved. This
forces modifier stack re-evaluation with more inclusive mask.
Far from ideal, since this might fail in certain configurations
with indirectly used objects which might be missing layers needed
for the current object evaluation. But this is how it worked for
a long time, so should be good enough for until more sophisticated
solution is found.
In order to use this new behavior two things are to be passed:
- Pass keep_all_data_layers=True
- Pass a valid dependency graph.
The dependency graph is only needed if keep_all_data_layers=True
and is NOT to be passed if keep_all_data_layers=False.
If keep_all_data_layers=True the dependency graph MUST be passed.

The goal is to prevent assignment of temporary or evaluated meshes
to objects from the main database.
Majority of the change is actually related on passing reports around.
On a positive side there are more error prints which can become more
visible to scripters.
There are still possible further improvements in the related areas.
For example, disable user counting for evaluated ID datablocks when
assignment happens. But can also happen later on as a separate
improvement.

After recent dependency graph API changes it became easy to violate
ownership design (since its changed) and request removal of out-of-main
temporary mesh. This confuses Blender and can cause crashes/locks.
Fixes T64731: Blender freezes after assigning result of object.to_mesh()
One of the usecases is to create mesh from an object is a manner similar to
how Apply Modifiers does it, and have it in the bmain so it can be referenced
by other objects.
This usecase is something what went unnoticed in the previous API changes, so
here is a followup.
Summary of changes:
* bpy.meshes.new_from_object() behaves almost the same as before this change.
The difference now is that it now ensures all referenced data-blocks are
original (for example, materials referenced by the mesh).
* object.to_mesh() now creates free-standing Mesh data-block which is outside
of any bmain. The object owns it, which guarantees the memory never leaks.
It is possible to force free memory by calling object.to_mesh_clear().

Main goal here is to make it obvious and predictable about
what is going on.
Summary of changes.
- Access to dependency graph is now only possible to a fully evaluated
graph. This is now done via context.evaluated_depsgraph_get().
The call will ensure both relations and datablocks are updated.
This way we don't allow access to some known bad state of the graph,
and also making explicit that getting update dependency graph is not
cheap.
- Access to evaluated ID is now possible via id.evaluated_get().
It was already possible to get evaluated ID via dependency graph,
but that was a bit confusing why access to original is done via ID
and to evaluated via depsgraph.
If datablock is not covered by dependency graph it will be returned
as-is.
- Similarly, request for original from an ID which is not evaluated
will return ID as-is.
- Removed scene.update().
This is very expensive to update all the view layers.
- Added depsgraph.update().
Now when temporary changes to objects are to be done, this is to
happen on original object and then dependency graph is to be
updated.
- Changed object.to_mesh() to behave the following way:
* When is used for original object modifiers are ignored.
For meshes this acts similar to mesh-copy, not very useful but
allows to keep code paths similar (i.e. for exporter which has
Apply Modifiers option it's only matter choosing between original
and evaluated object, the to_mesh() part can stay the same).
For curves this gives a mesh which is constructed from displist
without taking own modifiers and modifiers of bevel/taper objects
into account.
For metaballs this gives empty mesh.
Polygonization of metaball is not possible from a single object.
* When is used for evaluated object modifiers are always applied.
In fact, no evaluation is happening, the mesh is either copied
as-is, or constructed from current state of curve cache.
Arguments to apply modifiers and calculate original coordinates (ORCO,
aka undeformed coordinates) are removed. The ORCO is to be calculated
as part of dependency graph evaluation.

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.
