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 is a final step of having proper ownership. Now selecting different
layers in the "top bar" will actually do what this is expected to do.
Surely, there are still things to be done under the hood, that will happen
in a less intrusive way.
Need to ensure Render has proper dependency graph.
While this is a subject of re-design (render pipeline should manage all
dependency graphs it needs, and not demand external users to provide
depsgraph), this is good to have something working, so we can run regression
tests and such.
Loading blender with an unknown name would interpret it as a blend file.
This meant passing `--arg` arguments would end up creating new
blend files which could be confusing if you made a typo on a command
line argument.
Now check the string has a blend file extension,
exiting if it doesn't.
Before it was a compile time option which was not very easy to use or test. Now
the project is getting more mature, so very soon we will be able to call for a
public tests of limited features.
The copy-on-write (which includes animation, modifiers) is enabled using
--enable-copy-on-write command line argument.
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

This is really convenient for development. Either for profiling the
generated shaders or to check if the generated code is correct.
It writes the shaders to the temporary blender session folder.
It has been deprecated since at least macOS 10.9 and fully removed in 10.12.
I am unsure if we should remove it only in 2.8. But you cannot build blender with it supported when using a modern xcode version anyway so I would tend towards just removing it also for 2.79 if that ever happens.

The issue was caused by render result identifier only consist of scene name,
which could indeed cause conflicts.
On the one hand, there are quite some areas in Blender where we need identifier
to be unique to properly address things. Usually this is required for sub-data
of IDs, like bones. On another hand, it's not that hard to support this
particular case and avoid possible frustration.
The idea is, we add library name to render identifier for linked scenes. We use
library name and not pointer so we preserve render results through undo stack.

This was fixed ages ago for the interface case but not for the
command line. The thing here is that currently external engines
are relying on reports system to indicate that error happened
so suppressing reports storage in the background mode prevented
render pipeline from detecting errors happened.
This is all weak and i don't like it, but this is better than
delivering black frames from the farm.
Main scheduler would be created way before `-t` argument would be
parsed, since it was on forth pass! Moved it to first pass of argparse,
that kind of stuff should be initialized asap on startup.
Own error when changing order,
moving experimental features last made some sense,
but causes them to be listed twice.
Reorder and comment to avoid it happening again.
