The icons for collapsed children already draw highlighted when hovered.
Because the item icons are now select targets (for outliner to properties
editor tab switching) this adds highlights on hover for all outliner
element icons.
During the development of the new nodes in the `geometry-nodes` branch
the color of the new nodes wasn't considered, so all of the nodes ended
up red, the color for "input" nodes. This patch introduces two new
colors, one for "Geometry" and one for "Attributes". There are only two
attribute nodes currently, but the next sprint will add two more,
attribute mix, and sample from texture. The attribute nodes are
conceptually different enough from the nodes that modify the geometry
that they deserve their own color.

Until there is a icon made specially for this, the nodetree icon is up
for grabs. Using it in the nodegroup + modifier + editor helps the users
to make a connection on where to edit those modifiers.
The point cloud object is the only one that will support instancing at
first. So we can expose it as a regular object.
It is limited since it has no edit mode. But this is not different than
the volume object.
This commit adds functions to set and get the object's active
modifier, which is stored as a flag in the ModifierData struct,
similar to constraints. This will be used to set the context in
the node editor. There are no visible changes in this commit.
Similar to how the node editor context works for materials, this commit
makes the node group displayed in the node editor depend on the active
object and its active modifier. To keep the node group from changing,
just pin the node group in the header.
* Shortcuts performed while there is an active modifier will affect
only that modifier (the exception is the A to expand the modifiers).
* Clicking anywhere on the empty space in a modifier's panel will make it active.
These changes require some refactoring of object modifier code. First
is splitting up the modifier property invoke callback, which now needs
to be able to get the active modifier separately from the hovered
modifier for the different operators.
Second is a change to removing modifiers, where there is now a separate
function to remove a modifier from an object's list, in order to handle
changing the active.
Finally, the panel handler needs a small tweak so that this "click in panel"
event can be handled afterwards.
The handling of muted nodes is handled at the derived node tree
level now. This is also where expanding node groups is handled.
Muted nodes are relinked and removed from the derived tree
during construction. The geometry node evaluation code does
not have to know about muted nodes this way.
Objects can evaluate to a geometry set instead of a single ID (only point cloud
objects for now). In the depsgraph object iterator, the evaluated geometry
components are expanded into temporary objects.
It's important to note that instanced objects can also contain geometry
components. Therefore, they have to be split up into multiple objects
as well in some cases.
At a high level the iterator works like so:
```
for object in depsgraph:
for component in object:
yield object_from_component(component)
for dupli in make_duplis_list(object):
for component in dupli:
yield object_from_component(component)
```
DEG_iterator_objects_next has been cleaned up, to make this structure
a bit more apparent.
This should not change anything for objects that are not point clouds.
This is the initial merge from the geometry-nodes branch.
Nodes:
* Attribute Math
* Boolean
* Edge Split
* Float Compare
* Object Info
* Point Distribute
* Point Instance
* Random Attribute
* Random Float
* Subdivision Surface
* Transform
* Triangulate
It includes the initial evaluation of geometry node groups in the Geometry Nodes modifier.
Notes on the Generic attribute access API
The API adds an indirection for attribute access. That has the following benefits:
* Most code does not have to care about how an attribute is stored internally.
This is mainly necessary, because we have to deal with "legacy" attributes
such as vertex weights and attributes that are embedded into other structs
such as vertex positions.
* When reading from an attribute, we generally don't care what domain the
attribute is stored on. So we want to abstract away the interpolation that
that adapts attributes from one domain to another domain (this is not
actually implemented yet).
Other possible improvements for later iterations include:
* Actually implement interpolation between domains.
* Don't use inheritance for the different attribute types. A single class for read
access and one for write access might be enough, because we know all the ways
in which attributes are stored internally. We don't want more different internal
structures in the future. On the contrary, ideally we can consolidate the different
storage formats in the future to reduce the need for this indirection.
* Remove the need for heap allocations when creating attribute accessors.
It includes commits from:
* Dalai Felinto
* Hans Goudey
* Jacques Lucke
* Léo Depoix
Note: This also changes the Shader socket color, to match "Shading" in the Outliner.
Theme update for shader nodes will be committed separately.

This commit expands the Windows-specific code in rBdca9aa0053f7 and Linux-specific code in rB33b7d53df08a.
It also fixes a capitalization issue in FindPugiXML.cmake
Since Blender 2.91 the TeraScale 2 based cards crash during startup.
This patch will show the user a screen that the platform they are using
isn't supported.
The GPUs have been carefully handpicked from dozens of reports. T83124,

The object are not properly mirrored in object mode.
For mirroring an object that has an arbitrary rotation along the X axis
this is the procedure:
1. mirror x location.
2. negate x scale of the
3. negate y and z component of the rotation (independent of which rotation mode is used).
This knowledge applies now for all angles and axes to finally make the
mirror operation work in object mode.
The new mirror function has the downside that it can not (in this form)
be used with proportional editing.
This is no problem since the old behavior can still be replicated by
scaling with -1 along any axis.
The solution to get perfect mirrors can not work for scaling in general,
because in that case there could be scew created.

Caused by rBba97da21acf2.
For non-topology mirror hidden verts were never respected/included in
EDBM_verts_mirror_cache_begin (they were excluded from the kdtree).
Prior to said commit, hidden mirrored verts that were still in the map
would have been excluded in a separate loop over vertices in
'editmesh_mirror_data_calc()' by checking BM_ELEM_HIDDEN. Due to the new
nature of this function this check was now moved to
EDBM_verts_mirror_cache_begin.

The Vertex Weight Edit Modifier already got the Custom Curve, there was no
real reason for the proximity not to have it as well.

This infinite loop is caused by a conflict between the volume mesh
creation which unintentionally clears the shaders before early exiting
when no grid is found, and the Blender exporter which adds back the
shaders causing us to reupdate as the shaders changed.
To fix this simply preserve the shaders on the Volume node.
Use RNA_api_sequences() for SequenceEditor and MetaSequence
sequences member.
Defines pair of dispatch functions rna_Sequences_editing_* and
rna_Sequences_meta_* that pass pointer to seqbase to
rna_Sequences_* function.
Downside of this implementation is, that it defines 2 seemingly
different RNA collections - SequencesMeta and SequencesTopLevel

PugiXML was historically shipped hidden embedded into OIIO, the Grease
Pencil team had a requirement for an XML library recently so pugi seems
like a natural choice since it's not really a 'new' library, we just
turn an implicit dependency into an explicit one.
This commit expands the Windows-specific code in rBdca9aa0053f7 to
include Linux. macOS support will be handled in a later commit.
NOTE: run `cmake -U'*PUGIXML*' .` in the build directory to ensure CMake
finds PugiXML in the new location.

The idea is to avoid any synchronization needed in the worker threads
and make them to operate on a local data. From implementation detail
this is achieved by keeping track of "wavefront" of markers which are
to be tracked and the tracking result. Insertion of results to the
AutoTrack context happens from main thread, which avoids need in the
lock when accessing AutoTrack.
This change makes tracking of many (300+) about 10% faster on the
Xeon) CPU E5-2699 v4. More speedup will be gained by minimizing
threading overhead in the frame cache.
Another important aspect of this change is that it fixes non-thread
safe access which was often causing crashes. Quite surprising the
crash was never reported.
Log to verbosity level 1 rather than INFO severity.
Avoids a lot of overhead coming from construction of the INFO stream
and improves performance and threadability of code which uses logging.
This makes tracking of 250 frames of a track of default settings to
drop down from 0.6sec to 0.4sec.
Makes it more clear whether object is allowed or not allowed to be NULL.
Also, avoids possible access to the different object mode enumerator.
Should be no functional changes.
These functions were only checking the X axis for flipping the
displacement for a symmetry area depending on the initial position of
the pivot.
This affects transform and any other tools that transform vertices and
applies symmetry based on areas (the pose brush, for example).
