When enabled prefetching(preview panel>view settings), a pernament running job
is created, that will render frames in the background until the cache is full.
If the cache is not filled fast enough, prefetch job suspends itself
at the last moment and will wait until it has chance to "catch up".
Effectively this will decouple rendering to separate thread, so rendering
itself is a bit faster.
Cache recycling behavior will be changed to "free furthest frame to the left
of playhead if possible, otherwise rightmost frame".

A lot of areas were querying sound information directly using audio handle
which does not exist on an original sound IDs.
This change basically makes it so it's possible to query information about
given sound ID, without worrying about whether it's loaded or not: if it is
needed to load it first it happens automatically (no automatically-opened
handles are left behind though).
While this seems a bit extreme to open files on such queries it is still
better than the old situation when all sound handles were opened on file
load, no matter if it's needed or not. Besides, none of the changed code
paths are performance critical, just handful of tools.

This patch implements new cache system.
Aim is to give user more control over cache, so it can be maximally
utilized. This is done through sequencer timeline side panel
in category proxy & cache.
Cached images are also visualized in timeline, controled by
sequencer timeline view->cache menu
Functional changes:
- NOT use IMB_moviecache API
- refactor names of cached image types
- each scene owns 1 sequencer cache
- merge preprocess cache into per-sequencer cache
- cache links images rendered per frame in order as they are created
- add cache content visualization tool
- add RNA properties to control the cache

This caused text in strips to "jump around"

While scaling we can accumulate fonts at many sizes (~20 or so).

Fix T60194: Sequencer cut loses animation data for the right strip.
Fixing the first also fixes the second. First attempt was delaying
uniquename check at a later step of cut process, after everything had
been duplicated. While this fixed first issue, second one became even
more proeminent (it become active for all strips, and not only
video/audio movie strips in meta's).
So instead, passing along the list of (new) sequences, so that duplicated
seqs can be put there immediately, before checking for unique names,
henceforth ensuring even strips inside meta's get properly handled.
This partially reverts commit bb98e83b99.
It fixed 'strips having same name' issue, but broke handling of
animation then. Need to find a better way to handle this.
The clipboard is not a real user and should not be counted. Only on paste
should the user count increase.
This is part of D3621, and was implemented by Richard Antalik and me.
Note: Moved doversion of VSE strips uniquename to 2.8 versionning area,
and raised accordingly current file subversion, since that bug also
affected previous 2.8 .blend files...

We actually still had cases of Meta strip duplication resulting in
non-unique strip names. Quiet surprising this went unoticed for so long. :(
Fixed that bug, and think it was last one (at least, no other case of
SEQ_DUPE_UNIQUE_NAME usage should be broken, I think...), and raised
subversion and updated doversion to run uniquename check on strips on
all previous fileversions.
Note: will have to do that again when merging in 2.8...
Freeing sequencer would always do usercount, which is now forbidden when

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.
ViewRender was removed, which means we can't get the render engine for files
saved in 2.8. We assume that any files saved in 2.8 were intended to use Eevee
and set the engine to that.
A fix included with this is that .blend thumbails now draw with Clay mode,
and never Eevee or Cycles. These were drawn with solid mode in 2.7, and should
be very fast and not e.g. load heavy image textures.

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.

This was only used for viewport rendering, where we can just pass the engine
type directly. There is no technical reason why we can't draw the same depsgrpah
with different render engines.
It also led to some weird things like requiring a render engine for snapping
and raycast API functions.

This is fully unreadable to have lots of boolean arguments scattered across the
whole argument list. What does `false, true, true` mean in terms of behavior?
Replace those with bitfield which has advantage of having more human readable
meaning.
The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

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
* properties editor: workshop + organize context path
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:
Scene, Scene > Layer, Scene > World, Workspace
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object > Data

2.8x branch added bContext arg in many places,
pass eval-context instead since its not simple to reason about what
what nested functions do when they can access and change almost anything.
Also use const to prevent unexpected modifications.
This fixes crash loading files with shadows,
since off-screen buffers use a NULL context for rendering.
