This commit adds bounding box support for emission objects - similarly to flow objects. Before, each effector object had to iterate over the entire domain. Bake times of scenes with multiple obstacles improved significantly with this optimization.
Other improvements that were implemented alongside the bbox feature:
- Option for subframe sampling for effector objects
- Option to enable / disable effectors (can be animated)
- Optimization for static objects. If a flow or effector object does not move and the adaptive domain is not in use, the bake time will be optimized further by reusing the flow / effector grids from the previous frame (no recalculation).
These attributes checked for any baked / baking
since this is a common test that was performed in layout code.
Also follow our naming convention - using an 'is_/has_' prefix
in this case since "cache_baked_data" reads as if it's used to access
the baked data.
All the new fluid simulation parameters need to be added the according structs (i.e. domain settings, flow settings).
