* Less Lengthy enum/macro names.
* Optimize computation of Spherical Harmonics.
* Reduce radiance cubemap size a bit. Higher resolution is not necessary.
* Remove STUDIOLIGHT_LIGHT_DIRECTION_CALCULATED (was not used).
* Do windowing on each component separately instead of using luminance.
* Use ITER_PIXELS to iterate on each pixels, using pixel center coords.
* Remove gpu_matcap_3components as it is only needed when creating the gputex.
* Fix a lot of confusion in axis denomination/swizzle.
These changes should not affect functionallity.
This is needed for keymaps to define their own options,
which can include left/right mouse select.
This can also help to us to provide popular keymap tweaks as options,
so users can easily fit blender to their workflow with well supported
adjustments which don't give the overhead of having to maintain
your own keymap, which become out-dated when operators change.
For Blender builtin configurations the option to choose the select mouse remains
and is now also in the splash screen. It works by changing the keymap dynamically
in the script, rather than using special events.
The system of automatic switching of events was not flexible enough to deal with
side effects that require further keymap changes, so it is now under more manual
control in the script.
This breaks compatibility for some scripts and exported key configurations.
These can be fixed by replacing SELECTMOUSE, ACTIONMOUSE, EVT_TWEAK_S and
EVT_TWEAK_A with appropriate LEFTMOUSE, RIGHTMOUSE, EVT_TWEAK_L and
EVT_TWEAK_R events.
Other than that, there should be no functional changes.
This setting can be tweaked to improve glossy reflection cubemaps.
It increases the sample count for each roughness level.
This settings affect the lookdev mode quality as well.
This enables reducing the noise comming from very bright light sources
(like a sun) that can be found in distant HDRIs.
The lost energy may be replaced manually by a sunlight that compensate the
this loss.
This clamping only concerns Reflection Cubmaps and is done on all on all
of them.
Setting to 0.0 disables it (default).
This is a parameter that will make the interpolation between irradiance
cells of a same Irradiance Volume smoother, reducing the weight of the
light leaking correction factors.
It is usefull in some cases to avoid harsh lighting transition that can
happen when a sample point it near a surface.
This is an important change. Starting from now, all lights have a finite
influence radius (similar to the old sphere option for BI).
In order to avoid costly setup time, this distance is first computed
automatically based on a light threshold. The distance is computed
at the light origin and using the inverse square falloff. The setting
can be found inside the render settings panel > shadow tab.
This light threshold does not take the light shape into account an may not
suit every case. That's why we provide a per lamp override where you can
just set the cutt off distance (Light Properties Panel > Light >
Custom Distance).
The influence distance is also used as shadow far clip distance.
This influence distance does not concerns sun lights that still have a
far clip distance.

This change is important because it makes it possible to cull lights
an improve performance drastically in the future.
The python getters for the array already allowed that, but not the
actual C RNA access functions. This is inconsistent, so implement
the fallback in all cases. Now if by default the property should
contain the same value in all positions, it is not necessary to
actually use an array.

I only specified the identifiers for the units that are actually accessible for now.
This way we can postpone some decisions for now. E.g. if it should be `METER_SQUARE`, `SQUARE_METER`, `METER_SQ`, ...

It appears that Python gets next item before using current one, which
would break our Depsgraph instance iterator (since only current item is
valid there, we use the same memory at each iteration).
Working around that with an ugly ping-pong game between two sets of
iterator data, so that previous one (C RNA-iterator-wise) remains valid
memory for Python to access to.
- Replace BKE_brush_getactive_gpencil -> BKE_paint_brush
(no need for per-paint-type brush access).
- Rename TOT_GP_EDITBRUSH_TYPES -> GP_EDITBRUSH_TYPE_MAX
(avoid sharing prefix w/ unrelated constants).
- Rename instances of `GP_EditBrush_Data` to 'gp_brush'
(`Brush` is typically called 'brush').
Without description, parameters are not documented at all in API (not
even their type)... Always nice to have a short description anyway.
Also fixed a few other issues in existing descriptions.
Currently this is possible after built-in images are loaded in memory.
Allows to save memory used by dependency graph and copy-on-write.
In practice this lowers peak system memory usage from 52GB to 42GB on
a production file of spring 03_035_A.lighting.
Note, that this only applies to F12 and command line renders.
Bigger note, that this optimization is currently only possible if
there are no grease pencil objects to be rendered.
We even had an assert about that in setter callback!
That means that we do not allow editing names of evaluated IDs, nor
non-data-block IDs (mainly root nodetrees and scene master collections).
This handles both renaming via outliner and rna.
Metaballs as we all know have their geometry based on the metaballs that
share the same name with them.
Changing the name of a metaball without tagging its geometry to change
is asking for trouble.
Just use Collection name (same as for material slots e.g.).
That way, one can access those by their names as well, in
LayerCollection.children ... collection property (yeah, collection,
collection, and moar collection).
