Final releases (including beta) should strictly show features that are
finalized to prevent loss of data, old API clanging around, and the
overall quality of the product (Blender) presented.
Note that rendering should never be affected by user preferences, so
this is only changing things in the UI level.
Development note: This is reset experimental UI on file load.
Also note: to hide RNA (needed for hair and particles) will be done as a
separate patch.

This adds an option to the Multires modifier to sculpt directly on the
base mesh while previewing the displacement of a higher subdivisions
level. What this does it considering Multires as a regular modifier
without exposing the grid displacement to sculpt mode.
This allows to see the propagation happening in real time, which enables
to use complex tools like Cloth or Pose in much higher resolutions and
without surface noise and artifacts.

Functions `mesh_create_eval_final_view()` and
`mesh_create_eval_final_render()` were doing the exact same thing,
except for a hack introduced in d3eb9dddd6 (2012-10-08, Better fix for
T32846: dupligroup messes up particle instancing on rendering) that
appears to be no longer necessary. Besides that, these functions had
confusing names. Their functionality changed over time, and whether to
do for-render or for-viewport evaluation is now actually determined by
the depsgraph evaluation mode. This means that the `..._render` function
could evaluate a mesh with viewport settings, and vice versa.
The functions are now merged into `mesh_create_eval_final()`, and the
hack has been removed. The `OB_NO_PSYS_UPDATE` flag has been removed
entirely (instead of keeping it around as deprecated flag), because it
was always only temporarily set on objects during mesh evaluation and
thus not saved to the blend file.
No expected functional changes as far as users are concerned.
Multithreaded implementation can provide significant performance gain
on CPU's that can handle more parallel tasks.
On my 8 core system I got about 3.5x faster processing speed.

Original sequence lookup failed, becase name changed in another thread.
Fix is same as 0471349c90df - stop prefetching before changing content
of seqbase.
I have covered more cases, and added assert so it is more obvious that
issue is in lookup, and it shouldn't fail.

The BLI_bitmap had the potential to eat a lot of memory as it was a
dense map between all the vertices in the mesh.
Now we instead use BLI_edgeset so that we only store data when needed
(creating a spare map instead of a dense).
Allows to hook per-space code which is to be run on view navigation.
This is required to have zoom-to-fit implemented in the sequencer.
There might be more cases where the clalback is to be called from,
but it could be easier to address those on the case-by-case basis
when its needed.
It was impossible for drivers to use shape key properties, modifiers
generate a new mesh. After mesh evaluation the shape keys are no longer
necessary, and because of this the `key` pointer was not copied. As
drivers work on evaluated data, however, they do need this `key`
pointer.
This commit makes the `key` pointer available in evaluated meshes, but
this is somewhat dangerous. There was an explicit reason why the key on
result was kept at null pointer: to have the evaluated mesh in a
consistent state. Assigning this pointer makes it potentially
inconsistent, as the evaluated mesh and the original shape key may have
different topologies.

This was a regression in deaff945d0 which skips copying a mesh.
Dupli-verts/faces were not updated to account for this.
This supports iterating over edit-mesh vertices & faces,
since falling back to a full copy (as we do in some places)
will be slow while transforming geometry.
This commit looks as if it would change behavior with orcos,
since any edit-mesh deformation causes them to be assigned.
However in practice there is no functional change, details in comments.
Replace the evaluated mesh with VertexDupliData.mvert since only
vertices are used. This makes dupli-vert similar to how dupli-face
was already working.
This adds the boundary_falloff_type and boundary_offset to control how the
falloff of the Boundary Brush is applied.
Boundary Origin Offset is the same concept as the Pose Origin offset in
the Pose Brush. It is a multiplier that adds extra length to the brush
radius to locate the deformation pivot further from the boundary without
affecting the falloff.
The Falloff type includes Constant (previous default), brush radius, loop
and loop and invert. Loop and Loop and Invert can be used to create
deformation patterns in a mesh.

This brush deletes displacement information of the Multires Modifier,
resetting the mesh to the subdivision limit surface.
This can be use to easily delete parts of the sculpt or to fix
reprojection artifacts after applying a shrinkwrap.
