This commit merge the full development done in greasepencil-object branch and include mainly the following features.
- New grease pencil object.
- New drawing engine.
- New grease pencil modes Draw/Sculpt/Edit and Weight Paint.
- New brushes for grease pencil.
- New modifiers for grease pencil.
- New shaders FX.
- New material system (replace old palettes and colors).
- Split of annotations (old grease pencil) and new grease pencil object.
- UI adapted to blender 2.8.

This is the result of nearly two years of development and I want thanks firstly the other members of the grease pencil team: Daniel M. Lara, Matias Mendiola and Joshua Leung for their support, ideas and to keep working in the project all the time, without them this project had been impossible.
Also, I want thanks other Blender developers for their help, advices and to be there always to help me, and specially to Clément Foucault, Dalai Felinto, Pablo Vázquez and Campbell Barton.
Damped Track by specification attempts to arrive at the desired
direction via the shortest rotation. However with opposite vectors
there are infinitely many valid 180 degree rotations. Currently
it gives up and does nothing.
I think that it would be more reasonable to resolve the ambiguity
arbitrarily, so that Damped Track won't have a weird dead zone.
To make it more predictable I use a local axis.
In addition, the singularity area vicinity has some floating
point precision problems that result in significant jitter.
This applies workarounds for two causes of instability.

Deactivated by default.
All shading attribs can be packed to take less VRAM at the cost of precision (not noticable in this case).
UVs can be packed into I16 but that limits their positions into the [-1, +1] range.
This could be a setting option in the future.
It also fixes another issue (crash) related to symmetric editing.
Quite involved, we (try to!) fix complete broken logic of parts of particle code, which would use poly index
as tessface one (or vice-versa). Issue most probably goes back to BMesh integration time...
This patch mostly fixes particle editing mode:
- Adding/removing particles when using generative modifiers (like subsurf) should now work.
- Adding/removing particles with a non-tessellated mesh (i.e. one having ngons) should also mostly work.
- X-axis-mirror-editing particles over ngons does not really work, not sure why currently.
- All this in both 'modes' (with or without using modifier stack for particles).
Tech side:
- Store a deformed-only DM in particle modifier data.
- Rename existing DM to make it clear it's a final one.
- Use deformed-only DM's tessface2poly mapping to 'solve' poly/tessface mismatches.
- Make (part of) mirror-editing code able to use a DM instead of raw mesh, so that we can mirror based on final DM
when editing particles using modifier stack (mandatory, since there is no way currently to find orig tessface
from an final DM tessface index).
Note that this patch is not really nice and clean (current particles are beyond hope on this side anyway),
it's more like some urgency bandage. Whole crap needs complete rewrite anyway,
BMesh's polygons make it really hard to work with current system (and looptri would not help much here).
Also, did not test everything possibly affected by those changes, so it needs some users' testing & validation too.

This commit:
* Adds a 'compare_ff' function for absolute 'almost equal' comparison of floats.
* Makes 'compare_vxvx' functions use that new 'compare_ff' one.
* Adds a 'compare_ff_relative' function for secured ulp-based relative comparison of floats.
* Adds matching 'compare_vxvx_relative' functions.
* Adds some basic tests for compare_ff_relative.
See https://randomascii.wordpress.com/2012/02/25/comparing-floating-point-numbers-2012-edition/
Note that we could replace our python/mathutils' EXPP_FloatsAreEqual() by BLI's compare_ff_relative
(using a very small absolute max_diff), but these do not have exact same behavior...
Left a comment there for now, we can do it later if/when we are sure it won't break anything!
Stencil style texture mapping. Ready for field testing and user feedback.
This commit adds stencil like brushes, like those that existed on old ptex branch.
(with the exception of clip colour)
To control the position of the stencil, you use
Q: translation
Shift - Q: scaling
Ctrl - Q: rotation
There's extra work that has been done to make this work:
* Support for coloured overlay in vertex/texture painting
* Also made A button do stroke mode selection like in sculpt mode,
when mask painting is inactive.
There are some TODOs to work on during bcon3:
* Support tiled and stencil mode in 2D painting. Support alpha textures also.
* Tidy up overlay code. There's some confusion there due
to the way we use the primary brush texture sometimes for alpha, other times
for colour control.
WIP design docs will be in
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Psy-Fi/New_Brush_Tool_Design
* MEM_CacheLimitier - Size type to int conversion, should be safe for now (doing my best Bill Gates 640k impression)
* OpenNL CMakeLists.txt - MSVC and GCC have slightly different ways to remove definitions (DEBUG) without the compiler complaining
* BLI_math inlines - The include guard name and inline option macro name should be different. Suppressed warning about not exporting any symbols from inline math library
* BLI string / utf8 - Fixed some inconsistencies between declarations and definitions
* nodes - node_composite_util is apparently not used unless you enable the legacy compositor, so it should not be compiled in that case.
Leaving out changes to BLI_fileops for now, need to do more testing.
