This is the result of nearly two years of development and I want thanks firstly the other members of the grease pencil team: Daniel M. Lara, Matias Mendiola and Joshua Leung for their support, ideas and to keep working in the project all the time, without them this project had been impossible.
Also, I want thanks other Blender developers for their help, advices and to be there always to help me, and specially to Clément Foucault, Dalai Felinto, Pablo Vázquez and Campbell Barton.
It was a bit odd that the scene was stored per window but not the view
layer. The reasoning was that you would use different view layers for
different tasks. This is still possible, but it's more predictable to
switch them both explicitly, and with child window support manually
syncing the view layers between multiple windows is no longer needed
as often.
Both the scene and workspace had an active view layer, and it was confusing
which settings were being used or displayed where. Now we always have one,
so there is no mismatch.
The "View Layers" tab in the properties editor is now "View Layer", no longer
showing a list of layers. Instead view layers can be added and removed with
the workspace view layer selector. They are also listed and selectable in the
outliner.
Single layer rendering uses the active view layer from the workspace.
This fixes bugs where the wrong active view layer was used, but more places
remain that are wrong and are now using the first view layer in the scene.
These are all marked with BKE_view_layer_context_active_PLACEHOLDER.
Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
I keep reading that texture painting is not working yet. However it is fully
working. We even have a "Full Shading" option in the viewport display panel.
Clay/EEVEE still need their UI figured out. But the context itself is doing
its part after this patch, and at least for Cycles it's working like 2.79.
The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

This patch moves all the functionality previously in SceneRenderLayer to SceneLayer.
If we want to rename some of these structs now would be a good time to do it, before they are in SceneLayer.
Everything should be working, though I will test things further tomorrow. Once this is committed depsgraph can get
rid of the workaround added in rna_Main_meshes_new_from_object and finish whatever this patch was preventing from being finished.
This patch also adds a few placeholders for the overrides (samples, ...). These are obviously not working, so some unittests that rely on 'lay', and 'zmask' will fail.
This patch does not addressed the change of moving samples to ViewRender (I have this as a separate patch and needs some separate discussion).
Following next is the individual note of the individual parts that were committed.
Note 1: It is up to Cycles to still get rid of exclude_layer internally.
Note 2: Cycles still need to handle its own doversion for the use_layer_samples cases and
(1) Remove the override as it is
(2) Add a new override (scene.cycles.samples) if scene.cycles.use_layer_samples != IGNORE
Respecting the expected behaviour when scene.cycles.use_layer_samples == BOUNDED.
Note 3: Cycles still need to implement the per-object holdout
(similar to how we do shadow catcher).
Note 4: There are parts of the old (Blender Internal) rendering pipeline that is still
using lay, e.g., in shi->lay.
Honestly it will be easier to purge the entire Blender Internal code away instead of taking things from it bit by bit.

This was wrong since it's concenption in 28ee0f9218.
The if statement was returning true when pinid was NULL, and false otherwise.
However when scene is pinned we also want to run this code.
Code snippet by Brecht Van Lommel.
The original code was doing a sanity check to see if existing index was
out of range. However the comparison was wrong.
So if the previous ct->user (active index of texture node) was larger
than then number of available texture nodes + 1 in the other material,
we would never re-set the index to 0.
Bug introduced on c31f74de6b.
There was an early attempt of fixing this (2b2ac5d3cc) but it was just working
by pure, luck. And failing in cases like the one from this bug report.
- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
Make the UI API more consistent and reduce confusion with some naming.
mainly:
- API function calls
- enum values
some internal static functions have been left for now

Code cleanup: Move some uiBut->flag to uiBut->drawflag, make those flags anonymous enums.
Summary:
Make some room in but->flag (I did not add another flag, we already have drawflag, which was nearly not used up till now).
Note: I’m not sure whether REDALERT (and perhaps even DISABLED?) should not go to but->drawflag as well...

That was not really a bug (code working as expected), but the way tex context was handled was a bit raw, now it is much smarter:
* Default fallback context (when current one is no more valid) will now choose "most specific" ones first (i.e. material/lamp/particules before world and "others").
* When using that default fallback context, previous one is stored and we try to revive it later, if possible. Thus e.g. object[mat tex ctxt] -> empty[default world ctxt] -> object[mat tex ctxt] is now working as expected.
* However, when user explicitely or implicitely (through e.g. going to Material context...) sets a tex context, previous one is not stored, so that only default fallback context switch may later automatically revive a previous (presumably user-set) context.
Simply recompute texture context on every redraw, like already done for sbuts->texuser (also called texture context :/ ).
Also allows simplification, buttons_check_texture_context can be merged back into set_texture_context...
There were an issues with data structures defined in headers
and being used by both C and C++ on systems with stdbool
unavailable.
This happened because bool in this case will be defined as
unsigned int, which is 4 bytes. But C++'s bool is only 1
byte and this lead to alignment issues.
Now bool is always 1 byte, also made sure there's no situation
like bool foo = BitField & BitFlag, which could give overflow
issues. Use (BitField & BitFlag) != 0 instead.
Fixes#35553: Compositor broken (Backdrop & Preview)
So now, in the new "other" tex context, you can (depending on active data) have direct access to modifiers', force's or brushes' textures...
I also refactored a bit how texture contexts are handled (once again, we had some quite similar code in both space_buttons and RNA sources). This should also solve some harmless glitches like "no texture context selected in UI" sometimes when you remove data related to current texture (see e.g. after removing the material from default cube, in startup scene).
This usage of two different systems for textures, and the handling of switches between them, has been a bit tricky to get working right, but it is OK now I think. I also had to add a bool flag to buttons space, SB_TEX_USER_LIMITED (use_limited_texture_context in RNA), which indicates "new shading" texture code whether it has to ignore materials, lamps etc. (BI) or not (Cycles).
Btw, pinned textures from modifiers/force/etc. were also broken (showing nothing), now it should work too.
Thanks to Brecht for reviewing.
properly with blender internal is probably for after release, when we can add
the same system to gather textures from brushes, modifiers, force fields, ...
* Fix precision overflow issue with overlay previews,
* Expose alpha mask mapping to UI (still not functional but coming soon).
* More overlay refactoring:
Overlay now does minimal checking for texture refresh.
Instead, we now have invalidation flags to set an aspect of the brush
overlay as invalid. This is necessary because this way we will be able to
separate and preview different brush attributes on the overlays, using
different textures:
These attributes/aspects are:
Primary texture (main texture for sculpt, vertex, imapaint)
Secondary texture (mask/alpha texture for imapaint)
Cursor texture (cursor texture. It involves brush strength and curves)
Modified the relevant RNA property update functions and C update callback
functions to call the relevant cursor invalidation functions instead
of checking every frame for multiple properties.
Properties that affect this are:
Image changes, if image is used by current brush,
Texture slot changes, similarly
Curve changes,
Object mode change invalidates the cursor
Paint tool change invalidates the cursor.
These changes give slightly more invalidation cases than simply
comparing the relevant properties each frame, but these do not occur in
performance critical moments and it's a much more elegant system than
adding more variables to check per frame each time we add something on
the system.
When nodes are loaded from a .blend file they can potentially have undefined types. This can happen if a type has been deprecated and removed, or if node types were defined in a python script that has not been loaded correctly. Previously all such nodes would automatically be removed from a node tree, assuming that their types were deprecated and no longer in use (more commonly caused by loading new nodes in an older Blender version). Due to the possibility of dynamic registration it is no longer feasible to simply delete such nodes.
Display and handling of node trees was simply disabled before this patch, so that a node tree where any node or socket type was undefined would not be displayed at all. To give more information and avoid problems caused by necessary checks for the typeinfo pointer, there is now a 'Undefined' fallback type for trees, nodes and sockets. These types are used as placeholders in case the real type is not registered and can provide useful visual feedback on undefined nodes.
