This replaces dedicated flag which wasn't clean who sets it and who clears it,
and which was also trying to re-implement existing functionality in a way.
Flushing is not currently very efficient but there are ways to speed this up
a lot, but needs more investigation.
This way it is more clear what is needed to be passed and what is available
in the callback itself.
Thanks Dalai for review and tips about engine type!
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.

This gets rid of the bottleneck of allocation / free of thousands of elements every frame.
Cache time (Eevee) (test scene is default file with cube duplicated 3241 times)

The system now uses several 3D textures in order to decouple every steps of the volumetric rendering.
See https://www.ea.com/frostbite/news/physically-based-unified-volumetric-rendering-in-frostbite for more details.
On the technical side, instead of using a compute shader to populate the 3D textures we use layered rendering with a geometry shader to render 1 fullscreen triangle per 3D texture slice.
This moves background images out of the 3D viewport,
to be used only as camera reference images.
For 3D viewport references,
background images can be used, see: D2827
Some work is still needed
(background option isn't working at the moment).
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

You can change the amount of samples in the user preferences. You do not need to restart blender to see the effect in the new viewport.
This adds another Multisample Framebuffer and textures (so even more memory required).
It works by blitting the default_fb to the multisample_fb each time the renderer need to render one or more "wire" pass.
It it then blit back to the default_fb so that the rest of pipeline is working as expected.
We COULD lower the GPU memory / bandwidth usage to render everything to the same multisample fbo and change the logic depending on if MSAA is enabled or not, but I think it's a bit too much work for now.
Textures were bound once. But since it was not unbound it's bind_num would not change and considered still bound next time a shader needed it.
Fix T52866
Fix T52855
Partial revert of 9068c0743e.
This commit tried to do two things:
(1) Fix UBO binding logic [good]
(2) "Improve" texture binding logic [bad]
Don't ever mix different fixes and refactors in the same commit.
Iterate over invisible objects too, so lamps can still lit the scene.
Also, now you can use a collection to set an object to invisible, not
only to visible.
For example:
Scene > Master collection > bedroom > furniture
Scene > View Layer > bedroom (visible)
> furniture (invisible)
The View Layer has two linked collections, bedroom and furniture.
This setup will make the furniture collection invisible.
Note: Unlike what was suggested on D2849, this does not make collection
visibility influence camera visibility. I will keep this as a separate
patch.

Ubo needs to be rebound every times the shader changes.
This simplify the logic a bit.
Also modify texture binding logic to potentially reuse more already bound textures.
This fix the crappy binding logic.
Note the current method is doing a lot of useless binding. We should somewhat order the texture so that reused textures are already bound most of the time.
