This skips the subdivision operation if the mesh has no loops, avoiding
the crash.

Propagation when changing sculpt level was missing. In fact, the mask
was simply completely removed when changing sculpt level.
Subdivision worked for simple and linear subdivision, but Catmull-Clark
was giving empty results.
Fixes propagation part of T76386.
This introduces two alternative subdivision modes that generates
displacement on the grids that look as Simple subdivisions but while
using the Catmull-Clark subdivision type in the modifier. This way,
Simple and Catmull-Clark subdivision can be combined when creating new
levels if needed, for example, to sculpt hard surface objects.
Subdivide simple smooths the sculpted data when creating a new
subdivision level. Subdivide linear also preserves the sharpness
in the sculpted data.

The old Subdivide button was behaving as if subdivision modifier was
applied on top of the multires. This was the source of shrinkage since
the behavior of the limit surface: limit surface of a sparse point
from another limit surface makes final result appear smaller.
The new behavior is based on propagating delta against base mesh's
limit surface to the top level. Effectively, this is as if we've
sculpted on old top level and then propagated to the new top level.

Use full argument name.
Also order arguments in the generosity order: from depsgraph
(which has everything) to object (which contains multires)
specific multires modifier.
Was happening when object does not have CD_MDISPS allocated yet.
Need to make sure totdisp and level is specified on CD_MDISPS data
prior to loading (as the load expects them to be properly set).
This change fixes artifacts produced by these operations.
On a technical aspect this is done by porting all of the operations
to the new subdivision surface implementation which ensures that
tangent space used to evaluate modifier and those operations is
exactly the same (before modifier will use new code and the operations
will still use an old one).
The next step is to get sculpting on a non-top level to work, and
that actually requires fixes in the undo system.
Deformation of subdivision surface modifier was using wrong coordinates
for the coarse mesh: as the modifier flow goes the coordinates are to be
taken from the input array of coordinates.
We already have different storages for cddata of verts, edges etc.,
'simply' do the same for the mask flags we use all around Blender code
to request some data, or limit some operation to some layers, etc.
Reason we need this is that some cddata types (like Normals) are
actually shared between verts/polys/loops, and we don’t want to generate
clnors everytime we request vnors!
As a side note, this also does final fix to T59338, which was the
trigger for this patch (need to request computed loop normals for
another mesh than evaluated one).

It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.

Before that only normal component was averaged, which is not
really correct.
Unfortunately, the new code is somewhat slower due to more
involved math to deal properly with non-quad faces, but the
plan is to move averaging from runtime to edit time, This
means, that mdisps will always be continuous around the edges
and no averaging on every frame change of animated character
will be needed.
The idea is to run reshaping for every boundary vertex
of a grid rather than trying to copy boundary grid
elements.
While this is somewhat slower, this avoids all this
tangent flipping magic, which tempts to be rather tricky
and fragile.
The boundary copy code was not dealing correct with flipping
tangent vectors, hence causing discontinuity in the final
positions.
Now we only copy boundaries for quads, where we know how to
deal with tangent vectors and where we know that this is
needed.
More clear solution could be to change the code in a way that
handles handles displacement grids of quads in the same way
as it's done for non-quad faces.
Now it is forumlated in terms of deltas, and consists of the
following steps:
- Original displacement at the reshape level are being backed up.
- New displacement is being written by the reshape routines.
- Delta of the displacement is calculated.
- Deltas are propagated to the higher levels, which also includes
their interpolation/
- Original displacement is restored.
- New interpolated displacements are added to the original ones.
This is a base ground for the upcoming change related on using
Catmull-Clark smoothing for the deltas instead of linear
interpolation. Currently is no changes for artists, just preparing
for upcoming work.
First of all, follow our naming convention to use module prefix.
Second of all, mesh is being created and is to be freed, we also
have convention for such function names.
