While 3d cursor is mainly an UI thing and isn't needed for scene evaluation,
it is stored in scene DNA. This means, operator is inform depsgraph that data
has changed, so all copies of that scene can copy new values.
Fixes lack of visual feedback when changing cursor location in viewport
with copy-on-write enabled.
Added a lock-free deferred queue for deletion. Now if ID icon
is requested to be freed from non-main thread, it will be added
to the deferred list. Actual deletion will happen later from main
thread.
Currently actual deletion only happens next time BKE_icon_id_delete()
is called, which might not be enough. But it's easy to enforce
deferred deletion.
Icons for preview images are not covered by deferred deletion yet.

This gets rid of the need of a geom shader and instancing.
Both are pretty slow compared to the new method.
The only moment the old method could be better is when scene is filled
with lots of objects and most of the objects in the shadow map appear
on every layer.
But even then, we could optimize the culling and minimize the overhead.
E.g. the vertices created for each of the defines would require a
certain offset. If you don't know what to look for, finding out about
this is pretty difficult. Make them easily searchable instead.
There is quite some mess going on in that most of the old triangle
drawing code is still there, but does almost nothing effectively.
Instead values are hardcoded in the shader, however it doesn't support
the drawing options the triangle functions expose.
E.g. the 'where' variable to set triangle direction doesn't work.
- Wasn't clear which functions handle edit-bones.
- Mixed both ebone and edit_bone in names.
- Didn't use ED_armature_* prefix for public API.
See P655 to apply to branches.
- Move static undo variable into 'WriteData',
'memfile_chunk_add' used arguments in a confusing way,
sometimes to set/clear static var.
- Replace checks for 'wd->current' with 'wd->use_memfile'
move memfile vars into 'wd->mem' struct.
For correct results these must have been set already when the depsgraph was
created and evaluated, so all dependencies have appropriate resolutions too.
For particle we no longer backup and restore the viewport particles to avoid
overwriting them during render, as copy-on-write solves this for us. Even
without COW particles seem to work ok.
This also removes the particle simplification options based on camera. This
was never used much and only available in Blender Internal.

This was only used for viewport rendering, where we can just pass the engine
type directly. There is no technical reason why we can't draw the same depsgrpah
with different render engines.
It also led to some weird things like requiring a render engine for snapping
and raycast API functions.

Scene, view layer and mode are now set in the constructor and never changed.
Time is updated on frame changes to indicate which frame is being or has been
evaluated last.
This is a step towards making EvaluationContext obsolete.

Cycles is no longer using this. There are still addons using it but for
correct results with the new depsgraph this API should not be used.

We now only look into dupli groups to find point caches to edit. This
feature is a leftover from the old proxy system, and evaluating the
full dupli list and all transforms was overkill. With static overrides
we may want to get rid of using duplis entirely, and just let users
select the objects directly.
