This commit merge the full development done in greasepencil-object branch and include mainly the following features.
- New grease pencil object.
- New drawing engine.
- New grease pencil modes Draw/Sculpt/Edit and Weight Paint.
- New brushes for grease pencil.
- New modifiers for grease pencil.
- New shaders FX.
- New material system (replace old palettes and colors).
- Split of annotations (old grease pencil) and new grease pencil object.
- UI adapted to blender 2.8.

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.
object.base_flag was not synced back from evaluated ID to original one.
Similar thing as copying back to original transform matrix, avoids
having to get data from evaluated one in lots of cases.
Render depsgraph is evaluated from scratch, so it should not be needed
to do such a call.
This also prevents modifier stack from being evaluated on top of already
evaluated mesh
This way we allow animation system to make decisions based on which
context dependency graph is coming from, and whether it belongs to
an active edit window or not.
Saves quite a bit of CPU ticks per mesh update, giving measurable
speedup for file from T55228.
Memory usage goes up a it, most likely due to evaluated mesh having
more custom data layers than corresponding DM does.
Was caused by ec0756af6c, once again, we can't pass view layer,
need to pass index.
The sad part is that currently we don't have quick way to look up
view layer by index. Can do similar thing as we do for bones and
bases.
The depsgraph was always created within a fixed evaluation context. Passing
both risks the depsgraph and evaluation context not matching, and it
complicates the Python API where we'd have to expose both which is not so
easy to understand.
This also removes the global evaluation context in main, which assumed there
to be a single active scene and view layer.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D3152
This adds initial multi-object editing support.
- Selected objects are used when entering edit & pose modes.
- Selection & tools work on all objects however many tools need porting
See: T54641 for remaining tasks.
Indentation will be done separately.
See patch: D3101
For the performance we convert object bases list to an array
during view layer evaluation. This makes it possible to have
very cheap index-based base lookup.
The goal of this change is to get rid of base used for function
binding, and avoid scene datablock expansion at the depsgraph
construction time.
Do a direct update of object transform instead, without involving
manual trickery of recalc flag.
Shouldn't be functional changes as far as artists are concerned,
but will allow us to get rid of recalc flags in 2.8.
Thanks Bastien for review!
