This commit makes BKE_image_acquire_ibuf referencing result, which means once
some area requested for image buffer, it'll be guaranteed this buffer wouldn't
be freed by image signal.
To de-reference buffer BKE_image_release_ibuf should now always be used.
To make referencing working correct we can not rely on result of
image_get_ibuf_threadsafe called outside from thread lock. This is so because
we need to guarantee getting image buffer from list of loaded buffers and it's
referencing happens atomic. Without lock here it is possible that between call
of image_get_ibuf_threadsafe and referencing the buffer IMA_SIGNAL_FREE would
be called. Image signal handling too is blocking now to prevent such a
situation.
Threads are locking by spinlock, which are faster than mutexes. There were some
slowdown reports in the past about render slowdown when using OSX on Xeon CPU.
It shouldn't happen with spin locks, but more tests on different hardware would
be really welcome. So far can not see speed regressions on own computers.
This commit also removes BKE_image_get_ibuf, because it was not so intuitive
when get_ibuf and acquire_ibuf should be used.
Thanks to Ton and Brecht for discussion/review :)
As suggested by Campbell on the IRC gave grease pencil its own notifier type (NC_GPENCIL) and made the makesrna notifier functions actually update properly.
Also got the #ifdef'd GreasePencil.layers.[new/remove] functions working.
Replace old color pipeline which was supporting linear/sRGB color spaces
only with OpenColorIO-based pipeline.
This introduces two configurable color spaces:
- Input color space for images and movie clips. This space is used to convert
images/movies from color space in which file is saved to Blender's linear
space (for float images, byte images are not internally converted, only input
space is stored for such images and used later).
This setting could be found in image/clip data block settings.
- Display color space which defines space in which particular display is working.
This settings could be found in scene's Color Management panel.
When render result is being displayed on the screen, apart from converting image
to display space, some additional conversions could happen.
This conversions are:
- View, which defines tone curve applying before display transformation.
These are different ways to view the image on the same display device.
For example it could be used to emulate film view on sRGB display.
- Exposure affects on image exposure before tone map is applied.
- Gamma is post-display gamma correction, could be used to match particular
display gamma.
- RGB curves are user-defined curves which are applying before display
transformation, could be used for different purposes.
All this settings by default are only applying on render result and does not
affect on other images. If some particular image needs to be affected by this
transformation, "View as Render" setting of image data block should be set to
truth. Movie clips are always affected by all display transformations.
This commit also introduces configurable color space in which sequencer is
working. This setting could be found in scene's Color Management panel and
it should be used if such stuff as grading needs to be done in color space
different from sRGB (i.e. when Film view on sRGB display is use, using VD16
space as sequencer's internal space would make grading working in space
which is close to the space using for display).
Some technical notes:
- Image buffer's float buffer is now always in linear space, even if it was
created from 16bit byte images.
- Space of byte buffer is stored in image buffer's rect_colorspace property.
- Profile of image buffer was removed since it's not longer meaningful.
- OpenGL and GLSL is supposed to always work in sRGB space. It is possible
to support other spaces, but it's quite large project which isn't so
much important.
- Legacy Color Management option disabled is emulated by using None display.
It could have some regressions, but there's no clear way to avoid them.
- If OpenColorIO is disabled on build time, it should make blender behaving
in the same way as previous release with color management enabled.

Thanks to Xavier Thomas, Lukas Toene for initial work on OpenColorIO
integration and to Brecht van Lommel for some further development and code/
usecase review!
- image space used wrong notifiers.
- image notifier now checks for mask mode before listening to mask edits.
- mask keyframes now draw in the image space.
- use Alt to modify all mask feather at once while dragging.
- copying a multi-user mask from the interface works now.
- show masks when UV editing isnt used, rather then checking editmode (would give some odd/annoying image space header).
- add a fake mask user by default.
- moving points with LMB drag no longer selects them.
- optionally display the histogram as lines (not filled areas).
- expand the enum for faster access.
- keep the sample line displayed after doing the line sample (running again clears).
Added new flag to Imageuser which indicates whether user frame calculation is needed.
This flag is getting set in BKE_image_signal and handled in actual image usage areas
where both image user and current frame is known.

Also changed back J-key slot switching to only cycle through used slots, not used
slots + 1. This is much more useful to compare two renders easily, rather than being
shown an empty slot each time.
Issue was caused by starting Icon Preview render job from two places:
- Texture buttons for small icon preview
- Properties panel in image editor for large icon of texture
This preview job is starting in suspended mode and if new instance of the same job is
starting, suspended job will be totally stopped. This is normally for cases when you're
changing different settings -- in this case you'd wouldn't want re-render be triggered
on every slide change.
But what we've have with brush preview is that two instances of this job were creating for
large and small icon separately, but because of described policy only one icon was rendered.
If suspended job is getting to be stopped, check if it was started for the same icon
resolution and if not, that resolution will be also rendered in new job.
So it'll be still minimal re-rendering happens, but in cases when job was started from
two places for different icon sizes it'll work just fine.
These changes are to make the bmesh api more consistent and easier to learn, grouping similar functions which is convenient for autocomplete.
This uses similar convention to RNA.
* use face/loop/edge/vert as a prefix for functions.
* use 'elem' as a prefix too for functions that can take any type with a BMHeader.
* changed from camel case to underscore separated (like RNA).
