I was calling the ntree syncing function too late. So the index of the layer
was -1 since it was no longer in the ListBase, making all RenderLayer nodes
to decrease their respective `custom1` (even going to negative sometimes).
Since 30a966a726 when I removed the recursion, the code was still relying
on stack data. This would crash in release often, and it should crash always.
Big thanks to Sergey Sharybin for spotting the issue.
The issue was introduced by eb016eb as a fix for T41258, which added depsgraph
tagging with zero flag. The comment was saying that it's to make derived caches
to be updated, however bot sure how that could possibly work: tagging ID for
update with 0 flag only sets updated tags in bmain in old dependency graph.
In the new depsgraph, where object data is a part of depsgraph, doing such a
tag forces object to be updated, which re-triggers viewport rendering, which
is causing such an infinite viewport render rest.
Can not reproduce any crashes here, so maybe it's fine to move on with this
change.
This was leading to so much recursion that it was failing here.
How to test it: Open wanderer.blend and try to render (F12).
Note: This won't fix F12 rendering for wanderer with Eevee. Something else is
going wrong there.
For simplicity we choose to execute the rendering of Opengl engines in the main thread and block the interface.
This might be addressed in the future at least for video rendering.
A drawmanager wrapper (DRW_render_to_image) is called by the render pipeline to set up the Opengl state and then call the specific draw_engine->render_to_image function.
General idea of the fix: skip the whole draw manager callback madness which
was used to tag object's engine specific data as dirty. Use generic recalc
flag in ObjectEngineData structure instead. This gives us the following
benefits;
- Sovles mentioned bug report.
- Avoids whole interface lookup for opened viewports for EVERY changed ID.
- Fixes missing updates when viewport is temporarily invisible.

Main idea is to make specific engine types be a subclass of generic
ObjectEngineData structure.
This required following changes:
- Have extra size argument to engine data allocation function.
Not sure whether there is less error-prone way of doing this.
- Add init() callback to engine data allocation function.
Additionally, added some extra checks to Eevee's engine data getters, so we do
not silently cast lamp data to lightprobe data.

This was disabled to avoid updating the geometry every time when the
material includes displacement, because there was no way to distinguish
between surface shader and displacement updates.
As a solution, we now compute an MD5 hash of the nodes linked to the
displacement socket, and only update the mesh if that changes.
