Following work done in 2.83, the resolution control is now a real
level-of-detail parameter. It is now useful to be able to set the
resolution for display independently from render. This is true for
both mesh generation and mesh deformation modes.
For compatibility with old scenes, resolution is retained and is the
render resolution. Old modifiers loaded have the value of resolution
also applied to viewport resolution. This allows newer modifiers to
be used in older versions without trouble

The text colors set by the general widget state function
(`widget_state()`) would always be overriden by the menu-back text
colors to avoid contrast issues. This would only respect the selected
state, not other states.
Address this now by changing the input theme colors to use the menu-back
ones, rather than overriding after the fact (calling `widget_state()`).
Changing the surface distance through the flow type is inappropriate here. It had been added to ensure that liquids / smoke use a different emission value.
Now the value will only be changed when changing from a gas to a liquid emitter or, vice-versa, when changing from a liquid to a gas emitter.
There is a parameter typo in Python API document about bpy.props.StringProperty.
This patch fixes this.
Also this patch should apply to 2.90 branch as well.

Code required the tabs to be placed in an aligned region. Code should
work fine even for unaligned regions though, so I don't see a reason to
forbid this.
This patch adds the ability to render motion blur from Alembic caches.
The motion blur data is derived from a velocity attribute whose name has
to be defined by the user through the MeshSequenceCache modifier, with a
default value of ".velocities", which is the standard name in Alembic
for the velocity property, although other software may ignore it and
write velocity with their own naming convention (e.g. "v" in Houdini).
Furthermore, a property was added to define how the velocity vectors
are interpreted with regard to time : frame or second. "Frame"
means that the velocity is already scaled by the time step and we do not
need to modify it for it to look proper. "Second" means that the unit
the velocity was measured in is in seconds and so has to be scaled by
some time step computed here as being the time between two frames (1 /
FPS, which would be typical for a simulation). This appears to be
common, and is the default behavior.
Another property was added to control the scale of the velocity to
further modify the look of the motion blur.

The hardcoded age limit is now gone. The behavior can be implemented
with an Age Reached Event and Kill Particle node. Other utility nodes
to handle age limits of particles can be added later. Adding an
Age Limit attribute to particles on birth will be useful for some effects,
e.g. when you want to control the color or size of a particle over its
life time.
The Random Float node takes a seed currently. Different nodes will
produce different values even with the same seed. However, the same
node will generate the same random number for the same seed every
time. The "Hash" of a particle can be used as seed. Later, we'd want
to have more modes in the node to make it more user friendly.
Modes could be: Per Particle, Per Time, Per Particle Per Time,
Per Node Instance, ...
Also a Random Vector node will be useful, as it currently has to be
build using three Random Float nodes.
Find free slot first for sound strips then for movie strips.
This patch also fixes issue where all strips were added to channel 2 by default.

As creator.c is used for the 'main' function,
avoid obscure declarations being placed so prominently.
- Move Blender as a Python module declarations into it's own section.
- Move USD declaration to an 'extern' just before it's called.
Previously, there were only particle-birth and time-step events.
Now the solver can handle custom events. On the user level
this does not change anything yet. This feature of the solver
will be used by an upcoming Age Reached Event node and
possibly others. When this node exists, I can finally remove
the hardcoded maximum particle age.
The abbreviation 'init' is brief, unambiguous and already used
in thousands of places, also initialize is often accidentally
written with British spelling.
Yet another update to ensure that pointer variables are always up to date, i.e. those referencing the memory allocated by Mantaflow. Outdated pointers usually show up through flickering in viewport.
The weight must be added only to the real points, not to the autogenerated points by modifiers. This affects, not only to subdivide, but to any modifier that generate points.
In f2b04302cd the pointer update was refactored. It was sufficient to update pointers just in replay mode at the end of a step since the 'ensure()' functions from manta_fluid_API.cpp had their own pointer update call. These were removed in 51f4bee5a5, however, and so in order to still have some sort of update, the given update call needs to be available to all cache types.
Required for the new boolean code, disabled by default
until all platforms have landed the libs and the boolean
code actually lands in master.
