With the previous behavior, it was impossible to manipulate areas with a lot of complex shapes like fingers, as the pose origin was calculated only with the topology inside the radius.
With pose offset, the previous method is used to calculate the direction of the "bone", and an extra offset is added on top of it. This way you can set the pose origin in the correct place in this kind of situations. The pose factor grows to fit the new rotation origin.

Grab active vertex snaps the maximum strength of the grab brush to the highlighted active vertex, making it easier to manipulate low poly models or meshes with subdivision surfaces.
Dynamic Mesh Preview generates a list of connected vertices from the active vertex and draws them from the cursor code. This helps to visualize the real geometry the user is manipulating from sculpt mode when there are active modifiers.

This brush lets the user pose a model simulating an armature-like deformation. The pivot point for rotation is calculated automatically based on the radius of the brush and the topology of the model.

The sculpt automasking feature assigns a factor to each vertex before starting the stroke. This can be used for isolating disconnected meshes, masking cavities, mesh boundary edges or creating topological falloffs.
This commit implements automasking in all brushes and topology automasking without topology falloff.

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.

New brush option to calculate the distance to generate a new brush step using the cursor position over the mesh instead of the screen coordinates. This avoids artifacts when sculpting across curved surfaces.

The old layout of `PointerRNA` was confusing for historic reasons:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct {
void *data;
} id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
This patch updates it to:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct ID *owner_id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
Throughout the code base `id.data` was replaced with `owner_id`.
Furthermore, many explicit pointer type casts were added which
were implicit before. Some type casts to `ID *` were removed.

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.

In 2.7x UV sculpt was a kind of sub-mode
(a toggle with it's own key-map & drawing code).
Move this to an operator that uses the tool-system,
this simplifies internal logic, especially brush selection
which now matches sculpt and other paint modes.
- Remove toggle used to enable uv sculpt.
- Expose the brush, which was already used but there was no way to
select different brushes.
- Make UV sculpt use paint paint tool slots
(using brushes how all other paint mode currently do).
- Move UV Sculpt keymap to the tools keymap.
- Remove Q to toggle UV sculpt mode,
S/P/G keys to switch tools.
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.
- The ambiguous term 'handle' was used where 'ensure'
is typically used (get or add when missing).
- Rename `current` to `active`, all `current` functions which were
also ensuring.
- Clarify what is being operated on, using `BKE_gpencil_object_*` for
objects, `BKE_gpencil_brush_*` for brushes.
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.

- Remove the lock icons and move these items into an Options sub-panel, together with other toggles
- They now have more descriptive names
- Use an enum for view vs scene brush unit
- Use Property Split layout and sub-panels in line with the rest of 2.8
- Rename Curve panel to Falloff

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
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.
New edit mode operator and post-processing brush option.
Trim works on a single GP stroke. It removes trailing points before and after the first intersection (or loop) nearest to the start of the stroke.
- Many factor properties were set to PROP_NONE,
even properties that had 'Factor' in the name!
- Some time properties were not set to PROP_TIME,
especially in Particles.
- Changed motion_blur_shutter to use a soft max value of 1 instead of 2.
Anything > 1 here is not physically correct
and makes no real logical sense.
- Changed display name of Dynamic Paint dissolve_speed to Dissolve Time,
since it's a time property, not speed.
