This removes OperatorRepeatContextHandle, from 5f6c45498c
since we now only have redo in the area an operator is executed in.
These values could be invalid and crashed in some cases.
This is the first step to moving redo out of the top-bar, see: T55039
- Support for floating panels in the ScrArea has been added.
- A new region type RGN_TYPE_HUD is used for floating settings input.
- Only one HUD should be visible at a time.
- Currently HUD regions are only visible
for 3D view and image space types.
- There are currently some remaining glitches with hide/show
that need further investigation.
574c0fe38f caused complications
restoring the cursor.
Use WM_cursor_modal_set/restore which is intended for operator use,
calling ED_region_cursor_set after an operator runs isn't reliable.
Without this we need to have the context to get the
(space_type, mode) args for an active tool lookup.
For event handling & poll its more convenient to have direct access.
This patch adds support for:
- Per space-type tools (3D view and edit).
- Per mode tools (object, edit, weight-paint .. etc).
The top-bar shows the last activated tools options, this is a design
issue with using a global topbar to show per-space settings.

For Blender 2.8 we had to be compatible with very old OpenGL versions, and
triple buffer was designed to work without offscreen rendering, by copying
the the backbuffer to a texture right before swapping. This way we could
avoid redrawing unchanged regions by copying them from this texture on the
next redraws. Triple buffer used to suffer from poor performance and driver
bugs on specific cards, so alternative draw methods remained available.
Now that we require newer OpenGL, we can have just a single draw method
that draw each region into an offscreen buffer, and then draws those to
the screen. This has some advantages:
* Poor 3D view performance when using Region Overlap should be solved now,
since we can also cache overlapping regions in offscreen buffers.
* Page flip, anaglyph and interlace stereo drawing can be a little faster
by avoiding a copy to an intermediate texture.
* The new 3D view drawing already writes to an offscreen buffer, which we
can draw from directly instead of duplicating it to another buffer.
* Eventually we will be able to remove depth and stencil buffers from the
window and save memory, though at the moment there are still some tools
using it so it's not possible yet.
* This also fixes a bug with Eevee sampling not progressing with stereo
drawing in the 3D viewport.
