This was removed in rB0666ece2e2f9 because it is handled differently for
"real" cloth in cloth_solve_collisions(), but hair still needs this
apparently [does its thing in cloth_continuum_step() instead].
And since we have a default 'Quality Steps' setting of 5, it made many
simulations unstable.

This commit includes several performance, stability, and reliability
improvements to cloth collisions.
Most notably:
* The implementation of a new self-collisions system.
* Multithreading of collision detection.
* Implementation of single sided collisions and normal overrides.
* Replacement of the `plNearestPoints` function from Bullet with a
dedicated solution.
Further, this also includes several bug fixes, and algorithmic
improvements.

This reorganizes the cloth UI, and changes some of the behaviour to be
more reasonable.
Changes included here:
* Reorganized cloth panels
* Improved some tooltips
* Removed `vel_damping` option
* Removed cloth pinning checkbox
* Removed stiffness scaling checkbox
* Separated shrinking from sewing
* Separated self collisions from object collisions

This implements angular bending springs for cloth simulation. This also
adds shearing springs for n-gons.
This angular spring implementation does not include Jacobian matrices,
as the springs can exist between polygons of different vertex counts,
rendering their relationships asymmetrical, and thus impossible to solve
with the current implementation. This means that the bending component
is solved explicitly. However, this is usually not a big problem, as
bending springs contribute less to instability than structural springs.
The the old linear bending model can still be used, and is the default for
existing files, to keep compatibility. However, the new angular bending
model is the default for any new simulation.
This commit makes small breaking changes, in that shearing springs are
now created on n-gons (also in linear bending mode), while n-gons were
previously ignored.

This separates cloth stiffness and damping forces into tension,
compression, and shearing components, allowing more control over the
cloth behaviour.
This also adds a bending model selector (although the new bending model
itself is not implemented in this commit). This is because some of the
features implemented here only make sense within the new bending model,
while the old model is kept for compatibility.
This commit makes non-breaking changes, and thus maintains full
compatibility with existing simulations.

To find all effectors in the scene, we need to loop over all objects.
Doing this during depsgraph evaluation caused crashes because not all
objects are guaranteed to be evaluated yet.
To fix this, we now cache the relations as part of the dependency graph
build. As a bonus this also makes evaluation faster for big scenes,
since looping over all objects for each particle system is slow.
Fixes T55156.
Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
This removes the goal springs, in favor of simply calculating the goal forces on the vertices directly. The vertices already store all the necessary data for the goal forces, thus the springs were redundant, and just defined both ends as being the same vertex.
The main advantage of removing the goal springs, is an increase in flexibility, allowing us to much more nicely do some neat dynamic stuff with the goals/pins, such as animated vertex weights. But this also has the advantage of simpler code, and a slightly reduced memory footprint.
This also removes the `f`, `dfdx` and `dfdv` fields from the `ClothSpring` struct, as that data is only used by the solver, and is re-computed on each step, and thus does not need to be stored throughout the simulation.

Actually, it was the whole 'cloth' simulation of hairs that was broken,
since grid data could not be initialized correctly.
Stupid mistake from looptri conversion, rBc582e186d90291a19a4e404111c492f1fd2c41a4
Note that the collision modifier doesn't have any use for Loop indices,
so to avoid duplicating the loop array too,
MVertTri has been added which simply stores vertex indices (runtime only).
as complicated as before cloth solver changes.
Still doesn't solve the collapsing cloth cube issue mentioned in T43406,
probably the bending springs work somewhat differently now.
This was disabled during the course of hair dynamics work. The cloth
collision solution is based on a secondary velocity-only solver step.
While this approach is usable in general, the collision response
calculation still does not work well for hair meshes. Better contact
point generation is needed here (Bullet) and preferably an improved
solver for unilateral constraints.
These were used as UI buttons during development. If such parameters are
needed again later they should instead be added in the (now global)
SimDebugData and made accessible with a dev addon or so.
This way it doesn't have to be stored as DNA runtime pointers or passed
down as a function argument. Currently there is now no property or
button to enable debugging, this will be added again later.
Cloth data is used both for hair and actual cloth, which makes things
really difficult. The face number was used for distinguishing the two
types (no faces == hair mesh), but the extra hair data necessary for
hair sim is generated by particles and not available for edge-only cloth
meshes. This really needs to be sanitized ...
