Bring back per-viewport localview. This is based on Blender 2.79.
We have a limit of 16 different local view viewports.
We are using both the numpad /, as well as the regular /.
Missing features:
* Hack to make sure lights are always visible.
* Make rendered mode with external engines to support this as well
(probably just need to support this in the RNA iterators).
* Support over 16 viewports by taking existing viewports out of local view.
The code can use a cleanup pass in the future to unify the test to see
if an object is visible (or we can use TESTBASE in more places).
- Poly build now uses a new gizmo for pre-selection
which has the same behavior as loop-cut.
This replaces hack where mouse-move set the active element
which was no longer working properly because of missing
depsgraph updates.
- Multi-object support for poly-build.
- Support for deformed cage.
- Fix error where changing active object wasn't properly
refreshing the preselect gizmo (for loopcut too).
Currently holding Alt to select non-boundary element's isn't working.
Both object level and camera datablock properties animation did not work with
copy on write enabled.
The root of the issue is going to the fact, that all interface elements are
referencing original datablock. For example, View3D has pointer to camera it's
using, and all areas which does access v3d->camera should in fact query for
the evaluated version of that camera, within the current context.
Annoying part of this change is that we now need to pass depsgraph in lots
of places. Which is rather annoying.
Alternative would be to cache evaluated camera in viewport itself, but then
it makes it annoying to keep things in sync.
Not sure if there is nicer solution here.

Tool for creating polygons, exact usage may change based on feedback.
LMB to add faces at boundaries (tris from edges, quads from verts).
- Ctrl splits edges
- Alt to dissolve edges/verts.
Works well with vertex snap & auto-merge.
This uses selection hover but isn't intended to introduce more widely
pre-selection highlighting, at least it will be restricted to this tool.
