Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
This commit effectively makes workspace switching useless as far as the
active scene layer goes.
The functions from the scene layer API to get the correct scene layer
from "context" were a placeholder to be addressed by the workspace
commit.
When workspace was merged, however G.main was used as a replacement to pass the
correct argument for the functions. As it turned out (surprise!) this
leads to crash on render preview.
We need to get rid of:
* BKE_scene_layer_context_active_ex_PLACEHOLDER
* BKE_scene_layer_context_active_PLACEHOLDER
And either use SceneLayer explicitly or replace it by:
* BKE_scene_layer_from_workspace_get
While this is work-in-progress from custom-manipulators branch
its stable so adding into 2.8 so we don't get too much out of sync.
- ManipulatorGroupType's are moved out of the manipulator-map and are now
global (like operators, panels etc) and added into spaces as needed.
Without this all operators that might ever use a manipulator in the 3D
view would be polling the viewport.
- Add optional get/set callbacks for non-RNA properties
Needed so re-usable manipulators can control values that
don't correspond to a single properly or need conversion.
- Fix divide by zero bug in arrow manipulator (when moving zero pixels).
There is no reason to be special for workspace and go against other design
decision in Blender. If something like this is going to become a common
practice in Blender it should be well thought and well tested, including
tests of all supported compilers and configurations.
This feature was relying on type re-definition, which is not only confusing
but also available in C11 only.
Sync with custom-manipulators branch
- Use identifiers for properties.
- Property array index access.
- Remove operator from manipulators
(wasn't used and will likely add in a different way).
This commit does the main integration of workspaces, which is a design we agreed on during the 2.8 UI workshop (see https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.8/UI/Workshop_Writeup)
Workspaces should generally be stable, I'm not aware of any remaining bugs (or I've forgotten them :) ). If you find any, let me know!
(Exception: mode switching button might get out of sync with actual mode in some cases, would consider that a limitation/ToDo. Needs to be resolved at some point.)
== Main Changes/Features
* Introduces the new Workspaces as data-blocks.
* Allow storing a number of custom workspaces as part of the user configuration. Needs further work to allow adding and deleting individual workspaces.
* Bundle a default workspace configuration with Blender (current screen-layouts converted to workspaces).
* Pressing button to add a workspace spawns a menu to select between "Duplicate Current" and the workspaces from the user configuration. If no workspaces are stored in the user configuration, the default workspaces are listed instead.
* Store screen-layouts (`bScreen`) per workspace.
* Store an active screen-layout per workspace. Changing the workspace will enable this layout.
* Store active mode in workspace. Changing the workspace will also enter the mode of the new workspace. (Note that we still store the active mode in the object, moving this completely to workspaces is a separate project.)
* Store an active render layer per workspace.
* Moved mode switch from 3D View header to Info Editor header.
* Store active scene in window (not directly workspace related, but overlaps quite a bit).
* Removed 'Use Global Scene' User Preference option.
* Compatibility with old files - a new workspace is created for every screen-layout of old files. Old Blender versions should be able to read files saved with workspace support as well.
* Default .blend only contains one workspace ("General").
* Support appending workspaces.
Opening files without UI and commandline rendering should work fine.
Note that the UI is temporary! We plan to introduce a new global topbar
that contains the workspace options and tabs for switching workspaces.
== Technical Notes
* Workspaces are data-blocks.
* Adding and removing `bScreen`s should be done through `ED_workspace_layout` API now.
* A workspace can be active in multiple windows at the same time.
* The mode menu (which is now in the Info Editor header) doesn't display "Grease Pencil Edit" mode anymore since its availability depends on the active editor. Will be fixed by making Grease Pencil an own object type (as planned).
* The button to change the active workspace object mode may get out of sync with the mode of the active object. Will either be resolved by moving mode out of object data, or we'll disable workspace modes again (there's a `#define USE_WORKSPACE_MODE` for that).
* Screen-layouts (`bScreen`) are IDs and thus stored in a main list-base. Had to add a wrapper `WorkSpaceLayout` so we can store them in a list-base within workspaces, too. On the long run we could completely replace `bScreen` by workspace structs.
* `WorkSpace` types use some special compiler trickery to allow marking structs and struct members as private. BKE_workspace API should be used for accessing those.
* Added scene operators `SCENE_OT_`. Was previously done through screen operators.
== BPY API Changes
* Removed `Screen.scene`, added `Window.scene`
* Removed `UserPreferencesView.use_global_scene`
* Added `Context.workspace`, `Window.workspace` and `BlendData.workspaces`
* Added `bpy.types.WorkSpace` containing `screens`, `object_mode` and `render_layer`
* Added Screen.layout_name for the layout name that'll be displayed in the UI (may differ from internal name)
== What's left?
* There are a few open design questions (T50521). We should find the needed answers and implement them.
* Allow adding and removing individual workspaces from workspace configuration (needs UI design).
* Get the override system ready and support overrides per workspace.
* Support custom UI setups as part of workspaces (hidden panels, hidden buttons, customizable toolbars, etc).
* Allow enabling add-ons per workspace.
* Support custom workspace keymaps.
* Remove special exception for workspaces in linking code (so they're always appended, never linked). Depends on a few things, so best to solve later.
* Get the topbar done.
* Workspaces need a proper icon, current one is just a placeholder :)

Although this is working fine, there are two changes expected in the new
future once depsgraph copy on write is implemented:
1) To call ED_info_stats_clear a callback from depsgraph, instead of the
notifier system. (that would also allow us to clear only one
SceneLayer).
2) To store/get stats from the evaluated SceneLayer, as well as iterate
over the evaluated objects as well.
This addresses an issue raised by D2453 -
that there was no way to check if operators are run
multiple times in a row.
Actions are still ignored that don't cause an UNDO event.
When rendering multi-view in side-by-side or top-bottom mode, we squash
the UI to half of its size and draw it twice on screen. That means the
cursor coordinates used for UI interaction don't match what's visible on
screen.
This commit is a little event system hack (tm) to fix this. It has some
small glitches with cursor grabbing, but nothing to bad.
We'll also use it for viewport HMD support.
D1350, thanks for the feedback @dfelinto!
This option makes an operator to not push a task to the undo stack if the previous stored elemen is the same operator or part of the same undo group.
The main usage is for animation, so you can change frames to inspect the
poses, and revert the previous pose without having to roll back tons of
"change frame" operator, or even see the undo stack full.
This complements rB13ee9b8e

Caused by 4811b2d356 which caused the event handler hack that is used to fire up the file browser from other operators to fail. Basically the context from before the file browser is opened gets stored and used later for executing the actual file read/write operation (in this case, saving image). This context storage is cleared when exiting an editor since 4811b2d356, which is technically correct, but causes usage of NULLed context data in this case, because the file browser is exited before the file read/write operation is executed.
For now I solved this by moving the fileselect handler to list of normal handlers, instead of modal ones. 4811b2d356 only touches list of modal handlers so we avoid the crash. Ideally we'd completely refactor how the file browser opening works to get rid of these event handler hacks.
Note that I wouldn't be suprised if this causes other regressions, but I couldn't find one so worth a try.
Turns out CTX_wm_region returns mostly NULL in wm_manipulatormaps_handled_modal_update. Now propertly unsetting area/region data of handlers when deleting area/region.
This commit lands the core backend of the Custom Manipulators project onto the blender2.8 branch. It is a generic backend for managinig interactive on-screen controls that can be integrated into any 2D or 3D edito. It's also already integrated into the window-manager and editor code where needed.
NOTE: The changes here should not be visible for users at all. It's really just a back-end patch. Neither does this include any RNA or Python integration.
Of course, there's still lots of work ahead for custom manipulators, but this is a big milestone. WIP code that actually uses this backend can be found in the 'custom-manipulators' branch (previously called 'wiggly-widgets').
The work here isn't completely my own, all the initial work was done by @Antony Riakiotakis (psy-fi) and - although it has changed a lot since them - it's still the same in essence. He definitely deserves a big credit! Some changes in this patch were also done by @Campbell Barton (campbellbarton). Thank you guys!

Errors are caught & reported by our GL debug callback. This gives us way more useful information than sporadic calls to glGetError.
I removed almost all use of glGetError, including our own GPU_ASSERT_NO_GL_ERRORS and GPU_CHECK_ERRORS_AROUND macros.
Still used in rna_Image_gl_load because it passes unvalidated input to OpenGL functions.
Still used in gpu_state_print_fl_ex as an exception handling hack -- will rewrite this soon.
The optimism embodied by this commit will not prevent OpenGL errors. We need to analyze what would cause GL to fail at certain points and proactively intercept these failures. Or guarantee they can't happen.
When WITH_INPUT_NDOF is disabled, 3D mouse handling code is removed
from:
- GHOST (was mostly done, finished the job)
- window manager
- various editors
- RNA
- keymaps
The input tab of user prefs does not show 3D mouse settings. Key map
editor does not show NDOF mappings.
DNA does not change.
On my Mac the compiled binary is 42KB smaller after this change. It
runs fine WITH_INPUT_NDOF on or off.
This makes no sense since user usually only has release build... And those noisy printings are
behind debug flag anyway, so really no reason to only print them out in debug build.
This commit changes a lot of how IDs are handled internally, especially the unlinking/freeing
processes. So far, this was very fuzy, to summarize cleanly deleting or replacing a datablock
was pretty much impossible, except for a few special cases.
Also, unlinking was handled by each datatype, in a rather messy and prone-to-errors way (quite
a few ID usages were missed or wrongly handled that way).
One of the main goal of id-remap branch was to cleanup this, and fatorize ID links handling
by using library_query utils to allow generic handling of those, which is now the case
(now, generic ID links handling is only "knwon" from readfile.c and library_query.c).
This commit also adds backends to allow live replacement and deletion of datablocks in Blender
(so-called 'remapping' process, where we replace all usages of a given ID pointer by a new one,
or NULL one in case of unlinking).
This will allow nice new features, like ability to easily reload or relocate libraries, real immediate
deletion of datablocks in blender, replacement of one datablock by another, etc.
Some of those are for next commits.
A word of warning: this commit is highly risky, because it affects potentially a lot in Blender core.
Though it was tested rather deeply, being totally impossible to check all possible ID usage cases,
it's likely there are some remaining issues and bugs in new code... Please report them! ;)

Reviewed by campbellbarton, thanks a bunch.
Many keyboard layouts (italian, spanish, german...) have direct access to '+' key on main
keyboard area (not the numpad one), ans x11 has own define for this key, so use it instead
of generating an unkown key event.
Note that we most likely have much more missing 'specific' keycodes for non-US keyboard layout,
but think since we already had a 'minus' keyevent, supporting 'plus' one is totally consistent.
And we had a spare space in our defined values just for it even!
This keyevent is only supported/generated by x11 and cocoa Ghost backends for now,
neither SDL nor win32 seem to have matching key events...
Steps to reproduce fixed glitches were:
* Change any editor to be file browser from menu, Ctrl+O *from the file browser area*, Esc -> area reset to what it was before changing to file browser initially
* Ctrl+O from any area, F12, Esc -> returns to initial editor in full-screen (expected is file browser in full-screen)
Fixes T46229
Core of the fix is removing old area from spacedata list when going back to previous area (see ED_area_prevspace -> BKE_spacedata_remove). Also, when creating a new temp area we now don't exit old area anymore (needed so SpaceFile->op is kept, but it also makes sense in general)
Aaand finally removes some ugly hacks.
Tested quite a bit, so I think it's safe to apply (besides of remark below), just would like to get things double checked and confirmed. After all, this full-screen stuff finally starts to feel like it's working :P
Note, there's still a memory leak when quitting Blender with temp area open. Haven't found out how to solve yet, but it's not that important for review anyway.

For some reason, using 'dead keys' to compose some accentuated latin chars will generate
some 'unknown' key events, and in this case, direct `event.keymodifier` was correctly
cleared, but not its 'backup' version in `win->eventstate`, so all further events would
get an invalid modifier until some real one would be pressed again...
