Steps to recreate were:
* Go into fullscreen mode (Alt+F10)
* Open debug menu (Ctrl+Alt+D)
* Set value to 1
* Confirming should crash (at least in debug builds)
Was hidden behind debug values 1, 2 and 3.
Also cleaned up logic in region_azone_edge_initialize. It was using a variable
called is_hidden that actually should've been called is_visible.
Scroll-bars are now hidden unless the cursor approaches them, in which case they
smoothly grow and become more & more visible. Note that since 0d309144020168e55,
scroll-bars are drawn on top of editor contents. There's no more jumping of
buttons when scroll-bars appear.
Technical notes:
* AZones are used to adjust scrollbars based on mouse movements
We may want to support screen level AZones if we want scrollbars to also
smoothly appear when approaching them from a different area.
I also plan to make further changes to AZones to clean up stuff a bit.
* Had to move AZone handling to a post ARegion init stage, since we need the
updated View2D data from there.
* View2D masks and scroller rectangles are now updated on every redraw. It's
cheap to do that though.
Scroll-bars used to draw in a little extra space in the editor, causing
buttons to jump a bit when they appeared/disappeared. Now they draw on
top of the buttons, just small enough to avoid bigger overlaps. Followup commits
will do further adjustments.
With this we can get rid of a hack that was calling the (often Python
defined) panel definition - the panel 'draw' callback - twice.
This is for the 3D viewport and image editor. A remaining issue is
that pulldown menu buttons only show text, which is not visible on
all background colors, so making the header entirely transparent
does not work well at the moment.
The asserts were introduced on rB5f6c45498c92 (top-bar).
Although the asserts are technically correct, they would fail even in master.
And the commit simply added the asserts without fixing the situation itself
(as you can see in the report, it is really simple to reproduce this issue).
I propose we remove the asserts and bring them back only when the situation
itself is fixed. It doesn't make sense to introduce asserts that would fail
with the current state of the code.
Dynamically sized regions in the topbar were flickering due to only updating
their size after redraws. Now there is an optional layout() callback for
all regions in an area to do UI layout first, then refresh the region layout,
and then do the actual drawing for each region.
Task T54753
Note: Quad-View region overlay drawing is not working because of e01cadd657.
However I tested this patch after reverting that commit locally and this
patch's code seems fine.
Partial revert of 3d62230ed6.
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.

The only real reason we need `butspacetype` is while switching areas, where we
need to delay the actual switch to the RNA _update callback since only there we
can access context.
So instead of trying to sync it with `spacetype`, only set while needed and
unset it afterwards (as in set to `SPACE_EMPTY`).
This should also allow us to re-use `butspacetype` in versioning code when
trying to read removed editors. It'll store the space type value of the removed
editor which we can then use on versioning.
For backwards compatibility, we store `butspacetype` with the value of
`spacetype`.
Requiring context means we can't easily create new editors to replace deprecated
ones in versioning code.
Think it's reasonable to give editors access to scene and area data for their
initial setup though. They mostly need it for setting "the view", as in,
scrolling values.
Also did minor cleanup in top-bar creation function.
* Make bottom half of topbar a bit higher
* Make tabs higher and put them closer together
* Remove screen layouts dropdown, we'll have one layout per window
* Hide action zones from topbar
* Don't change topbar background color when activating
This commit removes all references to the old timeline editor.
Unfortuantely, the removal of the Timeline spacetype defining
functions has ended up breaking the version patching code I'd
been working on earlier (as now, the editor gets marked as
"unknown/info" before we get a chance to patch it!)
== Main Features/Changes for Users
* Add horizontal bar at top of all non-temp windows, consisting out of two horizontal sub-bars.
* Upper sub-bar contains global menus (File, Render, etc.), tabs for workspaces and scene selector.
* Lower sub-bar contains object mode selector, screen-layout and render-layer selector. Later operator and/or tool settings will be placed here.
* Individual sections of the topbar are individually scrollable.
* Workspace tabs can be double- or ctrl-clicked for renaming and contain 'x' icon for deleting.
* Top-bar should scale nicely with DPI.
* The lower half of the top-bar can be hided by dragging the lower top-bar edge up. Better hiding options are planned (e.g. hide in fullscreen modes).
* Info editors at the top of the window and using the full window width with be replaced by the top-bar.
* In fullscreen modes, no more info editor is added on top, the top-bar replaces it.
== Technical Features/Changes
* Adds initial support for global areas
A global area is part of the window, not part of the regular screen-layout.
I've added a macro iterator to iterate over both, global and screen-layout level areas. When iterating over areas, from now on developers should always consider if they have to include global areas.
* Adds a TOPBAR editor type
The editor type is hidden in the UI editor type menu.
* Adds a variation of the ID template to display IDs as tab buttons (template_ID_tabs in BPY)
* Does various changes to RNA button creation code to improve their appearance in the horizontal top-bar.
* Adds support for dynamically sized regions. That is, regions that scale automatically to the layout bounds.
The code for this is currently a big hack (it's based on drawing the UI multiple times). This should definitely be improved.
* Adds a template for displaying operator properties optimized for the top-bar. This will probably change a lot still and is in fact disabled in code.
Since the final top-bar design depends a lot on other 2.8 designs (mainly tool-system and workspaces), we decided to not show the operator or tool settings in the top-bar for now. That means most of the lower sub-bar is empty for the time being.
NOTE: Top-bar or global area data is not written to files or SDNA. They are simply added to the window when opening Blender or reading a file. This allows us doing changes to the top-bar without having to care for compatibility.
== ToDo's
It's a bit hard to predict all the ToDo's here are the known main ones:
* Add options for the new active-tool system and for operator redo to the topbar.
* Automatically hide the top-bar in fullscreen modes.
* General visual polish.
* Top-bar drag & drop support (WIP in temp-tab_drag_drop).
* Improve dynamic regions (should also fix some layout glitches).
* Make internal terminology consistent.
* Enable topbar file writing once design is more advanced.
* Address TODO's and XXX's in code :)
Thanks @brecht for the review! And @sergey for the complaining ;)

Fixes the "emtpy scrolling" glitch by clamping the scroller offset to
the boundary of the view when it's smaller than the previous.
Fixes T45197. Patch by @januz.

- Metadata handling is now separate from `ImBuf *`, allowing it to be
used with a generic `IDProperty *`.
- Merged `IMB_metadata_add_field()` and `IMB_metadata_change_field()`
into a more robust `IMB_metadata_set_field()`. This new function
doesn't return any status (it now always succeeds, and the previously
existing return value was never checked anyway).
- Removed `IMB_metadata_del_field()` as it was never actually used
anywhere.
- Use `IMB_metadata_ensure()` instead of having
`IMB_metadata_set_field()` create the containing `IDProperty` for
you.
- Deduplicated function declarations, moved `intern/IMB_metadata.h` out
of `intern/`. Note that this does mean that we have some extra
`#include "IMB_metadata.h"` lines now, as the metadata functions are
no longer declared in `IMB_imbuf.h`.
- Deduplicated function declarations, all metadata-related declarations
are now in imbuf/IMB_metadata.h.

Allows for each workspace to have it's own add-ons on display.
Filtering for: Panels, Menus, Keymaps & Manipulators.
Automatically applies to add-ons at the moment.
Access from workspace, toggled off by default

For experimental options, outside the scope of typical preferences.
While templates are developed we might want to make changes
to behavior which aren't fully compatible with typical work-flows.
Instead of mixing these options in with current preferences
expose separately (we could even force disable them when templates
aren't int use)
Use dynamically generated message publish/subscribe
so buttons and manipulators update properly.
This resolves common glitches where manipulators weren't updating
as well as the UI when add-ons exposed properties which
hard coded listeners weren't checking for.
Python can also publish/scribe changes via `bpy.msgbus`.

Engine is not stored in WorkSpaces. That defines the "context" engine, which
is used for the entire UI.
The engine used for the poll of nodes (add node menu, new nodes when "Use Nodes")
is obtained from context.
Introduce a ViewRender struct for viewport settings that are defined for
workspaces and scene. This struct will be populated with the hand-picked
settings that can be defined per workspace as per the 2.8 design.

Use Scene Settings
==================
For viewport drawing, Workspaces have an option to use the Scene render
settings (F12) instead of the viewport settings.
This way users can quickly preview the final render settings, engine and
View Layer. This will affect all the editors in that workspace, and it will be
clearly indicated in the top-bar.
Properties Editor: Add Workspace and organize context path

We now have the properties of:

This makes manipulator access closer to operators,
and allows Python access.
This adds RNA for manipulators, but not Python registration yet.
- Split draw style into 2x settings:
`draw_style` (enum) & `draw_options` (enum-flag)
- Rename wmManipulator.properties -> properties_edit,
Use wmManipulator.properties for ID-properties.
Note that this area of the API will need further work since
manipulators now have 2 kinds of properties & API's to access them.
