We are already running out of available flags in main, generic int, and
everytime I work on static override I find new special cases that will
need new specific propflag, so...
First real 'usable' commit, will be needed by the 'virtual data-block'
asset feature (i.e. to be able to link a mere image file as if it was a
linked datablock, and generate automatically an override of it to make
it editable).
Previously it was returning short, which was really easy to (a) compare against
non-ID type value (b) forget to handle some specific value in switch statement.
Both issues happened in the nearest past, so it's time to tighten some nuts
here.
Most of the change related on silencing strict compiler warning now, but there
is also one tricky aspect: ID_NLA is not in the IDType enum. So there is still
cast to short to handle that switch. If someone has better ideas how to deal
with this please go ahead :)
Previously it would save packed file(s),
which would ignore the image.filepath,
making it impossible to set the destination.
Add image.packed_files[...].save() so you can save packed files if its needed.
This was introduced in the fix for T44336 .
The code is now what it should have been in the first place at the time
of multiview commit.
ImageUser->passtype is being removed in favour of bringing
ImageUser->pass back.

ImBuf types were getting stored as bitflags in a 32bit integer which had
already run out of space. Solved the problem by separating file type to
an ftype enum, and file specific options to foptions.
Reviewed by Campbell, thanks a lot!
This approach gets rid of iuser->pass for good.
Also, I'm commenting out the pass increase/decrease. This was broken
since multiview. I will fix it later (before 2.75), but I didn't want to
get this patch mangled with that fix.
Thanks Sergey Sharybin for the review and feedbacks.

I/O

Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

Currently, for animated textures we were allowing 16x16 tiles but we can reproduce 128 frames only.

This is actually issue with Image datablock, which had obscure Fields settings
but didn't allow to de-interlace the video.
Now added the option to de-interlace Image with Movie input type.
If a video was loaded (e.g. from python) but never 'ibuf-acquired', its Image->anim
prop would still be NULL, returning useless '1' value as frame duration!
Basically the title tells it all, quite straightforward implementation.
The only thing is the image.render_slot which used to represent the active
render slot index is now moved to image.render_slots.active_index.

The issue was caused by the fact that we never used to store the
generated image color in DNA, so image reload will loose this
information.
Now we store the color in DNA, making ti so re-loading the image
will preserve it's generated color.
It is now also possible to change generated image color using the
color swatch in image properties after the image was created.
This adds an ImageUser to such empties with all the typical settings.

Summary:
Behaves very much the same as cache for Movie Clip datablock:
- Image now have `MovieCache *cache` field which replaced
legacy `ListBase ibufs`.
This allows image datablock to easily keep of image
buffers which are owned by itself. This field isn't
saved to the file and getting restored on undo steps.
However, cache limit is global for movies, sequences
and image datablocks now. So overall cached image buffers
size will not go above cache limit size in user
preferences.
- Image buffers which are marked as BITMAPDIRTY will never
be freed from the cache.
- Added utility function to iterate over image buffers
saved in movie cache.
- Movie cache cleanup check callback now have ImBuf argument
which can be used in a condition of cleanup.
- Added some utility functions which replaces legacy ibufs
iterations with image cache iteration which happens from
inside a lock.
- Fixed `image_mem_size()` which was only counting one of
the buffers if both float and byte buffer present.
Additional notes:
- `BKE_image_get_first_ibuf()` is rather stupid, but direct
access to ibufs->first was also the same stupid idea.
Would consider avoid this function is another project.
- There are some places which doesn't look threadsafe, but
they already were not so much threadsafe anyway before.
So think not a big deal with solving this later.
Finally solves infinite memory usage by image sequences! :)

Should go to 2.66a
Image Sequence texture now allows to animate "Offset" again with fcurves.
This was disabled for 2.65, it only works for fcurve key inserting (not
for drivers), but too many people have been using to animate character
textures already...
Issue was caused by FILE multilayer ImBuf sharing buffers with render
result, and SEQUENCE multilayer ImBufs duplicating buffers. Which is
nice by it's own. But, changing image source wouldn't remove any loaded
image buffers, meaning if you've got loaded FILE multilayers they'll
likely became invalid.
That behavior of handling multilayers on changing source was done as
a fix for #24976, which is now actually not needed (removing check
for multilayer doesn't change behavior at all).
Just to be sure added check to RNA, so signal wouldn't be fired if
source wasn't actually changed form a menu.
This adds support of movie textures for Cycles rendering.
Uses the same builtin images routines as packed/generated images,
but with some extra non-rna hookups from blender_session side.
Basically, it's not so clear how to give access to video frames
via C++ RNA -- it'll require exposing ImBuf to API, doing some
threading locks and so. Ended up adding two more functions which
are actually bad level call, but don't consider it's so much bad
-- we have few bad calls already, which are actually related.
Changed a bit how builtin images names are passing to image
manager. Now it's not just an ID datablock name, but also a frame
number concatenated via '@' character, which makes itpossible to
easily know frame number to be used for movie images, without
adding extra descriptors to image manager.
Decoding of builtin name is a bit slower now, but it should be
still nothing in comparison with rendering complexity.
Also exposed image user's frame_current to python API, which
is needed to get absolute frame number of movie from node's
image user.
P.S. Generated/packed images are also using bad level call but
only does it to make things more clear here. Either all images
are using C++ RNA here or no images does. That's the most clear
for now.
