Adds a keyboard walk navigation and selection operator to the
outliner. Up and down arrow keys walk up and down the list of
elements, and left and right will open and close elements if
the elements are closed or opened respectively. Holding shift
while walking up and down the tree expands the selection.
Holding shift while clicking or pressing left and right arrows
will expand or collapse all children elements recursively.
Pressing enter to openclose the hovered element is removed.
Also allows click+drag for openclose of element subtrees.
This moves openclose toggling to the openclose operator to
remove duplicate code. The outliner tree building is tweaked
slightly to set the proper parents in scene display mode for walk
select to walk to parents without errors.
Allow selection of subtree elements on a collapsed element's
row. Because subtree elements are aggregated by type, a select on
an icon that represents multiple subtree elements will invoke a
popup menu to select the specific subtree element.
Also draws highlights on cursor hover over a row icon.
Any child elements that are linked to multiple collections will
only be listed in the popup one time, and selection from the
popup will select the first instance in the subtree.
Adds a toggle to the filter menu for outliner synced selection. Enabled
by default, this ensures selection is synced between objects, bones, and
sequences. An active outliner element theme color is added to indicate
which element is active.
Synced selection is controlled on the operator level. Each operator
that modifies selection for objects, bones, sequences, or outliner
elements needs to call the respective ED_outliner_select_sync_from..
function to tag outliners to be synced.
Syncing is done lazily on outliner draw.
The soc-2019-outliner branch relied on the previous behavior,
since this is going to be merged soon, postpone this change.
This reverts commit 9dab57a9f8.
This is 2.7x behavior, while there are plans to improve on this,
committing in case larger changes take longer.
Without this it's not easy to select object data without changing modes.
See D5493
This change ensures that operators which needs access to evaluated data
first makes sure there is a dependency graph.
Other accesses to the dependency graph made it more explicit about
whether they just need a valid dependency graph pointer or whether they
expect the graph to be already evaluated.
This replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA which is now removed.
Some general rules about usage of accessors:
- Drawing is expected to happen from a fully evaluated dependency graph.
There is now a function to access it, which will in the future control
that dependency graph is actually evaluated.
This check is not yet done because there are some things to be taken
care about first: for example, post-update hooks might leave scene in
a state where something is still tagged for update.
- All operators which needs to access evaluated state must use
CTX_data_ensure_evaluated_depsgraph().
This function replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA.
The call is generally to be done in the very beginning of the
operator, prior other logic (unless this is some comprehensive
operator which might or might not need access to an evaluated state).
This call is never to be used from a loop.
If some utility function requires evaluated state of dependency graph
the graph is to be passed as an explicit argument. This way it is
clear that no evaluation happens in a loop or something like this.
- All cases which needs to know dependency graph pointer, but which
doesn't want to actually evaluate it can use old-style function
CTX_data_depsgraph_pointer(), assuming that underlying code will
ensure dependency graph is evaluated prior to accessing it.
- The new functions are replacing OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA, so now it is
explicit and local about where dependency graph is being ensured.
This commit also contains some fixes of wrong usage of evaluation
functions on original objects. Ideally should be split out, but in
reality with all the APIs being renamed is quite tricky.
Fixes T67454: Blender crash on rapid undo and select
Speculation here is that sometimes undo and selection operators are
sometimes handled in the same event loop iteration, which leaves
non-evaluated dependency graph.

Visibility Options
==================
We are adding more granular control over restriction columns in the outliner,
exposing "indirect only" and "holdout" as options, and change the way
users enable/disable collections in a viewlayer.
We also rename the object viewport restriction to hide instance.
So the options we have are:
Collection
----------
* Render Visibility
* Instance Visibility
* Selectable
(View) Layer Collection
-----------------------
* Enable
* Holdout
* Indirect Only
* Viewport
Shortcuts
=========
Isolate Collection
------------------
* Ctr + click isolates the collection.
It turns all its parents and children "visible", and all the other
collections "invisible".
If ALL the collections were already properly set, we re-set the
collections to their default value.
Set Collection Inside Collections and Objects
---------------------------------------------
* Shift + click: Set/unset inside collections and objects.
We only set objects values as well when we are in View Layer mode and
(obviously) when the objects have a matching property.
Icons
=====
Little reminder that we will need better icons for holdout, indirect only, and
probably instanced (nothing wrong with the current, but it differs from
the proposal when it is turned off).
Also, we need to decide where do we want the modifier/bones/... icons to
be (in which column) and ideally make sure their icons match the ones we
use for collections/objects.
At the moment those are using the screen icon, which is not being used
by collections.

Althought this has limited usability currently (only 'nothing' area in
Outliner are empty lines below last entries), better for consistency to
have it here too.
Part of T63995.
While fixing it, also reproducing multi-object selection logic we have
in the viewport. If you select one bone from an armature, it deselects all
bones from the other armatures currently in edit mode.
Inspired by proposed fix by Philipp Oeser (lichtwerk).
Code explanation
================
CTX_data_edit_object(C) may be NULL here. In the few cases where it is
not we use it for the notifier (in the other cases we call the notifier
with NULL, so no harm done).
This code is called during outliner drawing, and it is called, for
instance every time you mouse hover a bone.
If you have a mesh object in edit mode and mouse hover the bones of an armature
it is plain obvious we can't rely on CTX_data_edit_object() for anything
armature related. And that the original assert was asking for troubles.
The problem
===========
For armature, if the active object was in pose mode and the newly
selected armature data (not the pose, but the edit armature) we would
get a crash.
For mesh objects, the issue would happen with the active object in object mode.
Then the new selected object would switch to edit mode, however the overall
mode would still be object mode, leading to unsynced mode across the objects.
The solution
============
Using shift to extend selection makes current selected (compatible)
objects to go to edit mode as well. Otherwise only the newly selected
object will switch to edit mode.
This also works if you are in edit mode for a curve, and click in a mesh icon.
This also changes the rules for multi-object editing (or rather, how we
put objects in and out of it). Now shirt is also taking into
consideration there. So if you simply click in another mesh object's
data, it will have only the newly selected object in edit mode.
To reproduce the old behaviour you need to use shift to include the
newly selected object in the multi-edit party.

BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.

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.
* Main windows show a topbar and statusbar, and select a workspace and
scene. They are created with Window > New Main Window.
* Child windows do not show a topbar or statusbar. These follow the
workspace and scene of their parent main window. Created with Window >
New Window or View > Duplicate Area into New Window.
* The purpose of this change is to support multi monitor setups where you
just want to put more editors on the other monitors. Without multiple
topbars and statusbars, working within a single workspace and scene.
Creating multiple main windows is intended to be a concious choice to
do different tasks in different workspaces and scenes.
* Note these changes do not currently affect how the operating system
treats the windows.
* When changing the workspace, the layout in all child windows changes.
This makes sense if we consider child windows to be just a way to
extend the main window across more monitors. In some case it may be
useful to keep the same layout though, we can add an option for this
depending on user feedback.
