This uses the same framework as automated modifier tests. It adds a physics
modifier, bakes and compares vertex coordinates on the end frame.

CentOS on the buildbot still runs Python 3.6, which is also used for the
unit tests. This means that the tests can't use language features that
are available to Blender itself. And testing with a different version of
Python than will be used by the actual code seems like a bad idea to me.
This commit adds `TEST_PYTHON_EXECUTABLE` as advanced CMake option. This
will allow us to set a specific Python executable when we need it. When
not set, a platform-specific default will be used:
- On Windows, the `python….exe` from the installation directory. This is
just like before this patch, except that this patch adds the
overridability.
- On macOS/Linux, the `${PYTHON_EXECUTABLE}` as found by CMake.
Every platform should now have a value (configured by the user or
detected by CMake) for `TEST_PYTHON_EXE`, so there is no need to allow
running without. This also removes the need to have some Python files
marked as executable.
If `TEST_PYTHON_EXE` is not user-configured, and thus the above default
is used, a status message is logged by CMake. I've seen this a lot in
other projects, and I like that it shows which values are auto-detected.
However, it's not common in Blender, so if we want we can either remove
it now, or remove it after the buildbot has been set up correctly.

This allows fast access to various arrays in the Python API.
Most notably, `image.pixels` can be accessed much more efficiently now.
**Benchmark**
Below are the results of a benchmark that compares different ways to
set/get all pixel values. I do the tests on 2048x2048 rgba images.
The benchmark tests the following dimensions:
- Byte vs. float per color channel
- Python list vs. numpy array containing floats
- `foreach_set` (new) vs. `image.pixels = ...` (old)
```
Pixel amount: 2048 * 2048 = 4.194.304
Byte buffer size: 16.8 mb
Float buffer size: 67.1 mb
Set pixel colors:
byte - new - list: 271 ms
byte - new - buffer: 29 ms
byte - old - list: 350 ms
byte - old - buffer: 2900 ms
float - new - list: 249 ms
float - new - buffer: 8 ms
float - old - list: 330 ms
float - old - buffer: 2880 ms
Get pixel colors:
byte - list: 128 ms
byte - buffer: 9 ms
float - list: 125 ms
float - buffer: 8 ms
```
**Observations**
The best set and get speed can be achieved with buffers and a float image,
at the cost of higher memory consumption. Furthermore, using buffers when
using `pixels = ...` is incredibly slow, because it is not optimized.
Optimizing this is possible, but might not be trivial (there were multiple
attempts afaik).
Float images are faster due to overhead introduced by the api for byte images.
If I profiled it correctly, a lot of time is spend in the `[0, 1] -> {0, ..., 255}`
conversion. The functions doing that conversion is `unit_float_to_uchar_clamp`.
While I have an idea on how it can be optimized, I do not know if it can be done
without changing its functionality slightly. Performance wise the best solution
would be to not do this conversion at all and accept byte input from the api
user directly, but that seems to be a more involved task as well.

Currently this only tests the Child Of constraint. My aim is to cover
constraints with tests before they are refactored/altered.
No functional changes.
This rename is to prepare for a future addition to the unit test file.
Currently it's named "import" and I will add an export test as well. The
rename is a separate commit to easily see the difference between the
rename and the addition of another test.
No functional changes.
Patch from Habib Gahbiche (zazizizou) moves the "run operator and
compare mesh to a golden" paradigm used in bevel and boolean tests
into a general framework that separates the test specs from the
blend files. Then adds some other operator and modifier tests using
the new framework. Diff D5357.id20724.diff was applied.
New .blend files, modifiers.blend and operators.blend are needed
in the tests/modeling svn directory; those were separately committed.
Those tests are here mostsly to ensure ID name management is working as
expected (the code ensuring we never have two ilocal data-blocks of the
same type with the same name in a .blend file).
Note: Currently fails in some cases, fixes are incoming.
Note: Ideally this would be in C, but we already have too many tests
linking the whole Blender and its libraries, this is becoming a real
pain to link debug + ASAN + tests build these days... So until we find a
better way to handle those dependencies, sticking to simple python
scripts.
Blender can only be run correctly from the install path since it requires Python
scripts, dynamic libraries and other files to be present. By default the install
path is the same as the build path, so it works anyway. But on the buildbot it
isn't. There was a workaround but it failed on Windows and macOS.
Now tests run from the install path. Detecting that path for ctest is more
complicated than I would like, but I couldn't find a better solution.
Ref T69541.
Being able to compare Eevee reference images is useful for refactoring I'm
working on so might as well add them now, even if we can still improve them.
Workbench tests are just rendering the same files as Cycles and Eevee. This
doesn't really tests many workbench settings until we add tests specifically
for them, but does cover how it it handles the different object types.
To keep running these tests relatively fast and practical to run often,
running it on all .blend files is a bit much. So now we only run it on
files from this directory.
Additionally this adds supports for following symlinks, so that you can
easily symlinks to other directories if you want to tests extra files
which may have linked libraries.
This adds Eevee render tests using the Cycles files. Currently it must
be enabled by setting WITH_OPENGL_RENDER_TESTS=ON. Once we have reference
images we can enable it by default.
Some of the Cycles and Eevee tests are also currently broken due to
modifier and particle changes.

OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.
