Commit ea97bb1641 introducing the GHash mapping between objects and
their CollectionObject items in a Collection broke ID remapping of
collections's objects. Release builds would 'work', but debug builds
would assert in several ways when opening complex production files.
The root of the issue was a bad/missing handling of the 'duplicate case'
(several CollectionObjects pointing to a same Object).
While fixing the code was possible, it turned out to require disabling
to much safety checks. Further more, there was an opportunity to improve
efficiency of the related code in ID remapping (the pos-processing
checking for NULL and duplicates in collections objects lists).
This commit introduces a new 'dirty' tag for CollectionObject lists and
their ghash mappings.
This tag is set by the `foreach_id` callback when the `ob` pointer of a
CollectionObject is changed, and it is detected as (potentially)
breaking the consistency of that data.
This tag is then used by a new `BKE_collections_object_remove_invalids`
call, to only check and fix collections tagged as dirty, instead of all
the collections in the given Main. It replaces the previous
`BKE_collections_object_remove_nulls` and
`BKE_collections_object_remove_duplicates` functions.
The speed-up is about an order of magnitude for the clean-up code
itself, which gives 2-3 percent speed-up on resynching a complex
production file e.g.
This commit also includes some cleanups and re-organization of related
code.
