We do not assume subversion bump until we actually change the subversion.
For example, a branch may have bumped its subversion to 3, yet still require
the new doversion code introduced on 108c4bd502.
Since we are ditching layers from Blender (2.8) we need a replacement to
control groups visibility. This commit introduces collections as the building
blocks for groups, allowing users to control visibility as well as overrides
for groups.
Features
========
* Groups now have collections
This way you can change the visibility of a collection inside a group, and add
overrides which are part of the group and are prioritized over other overrides.
* Outliner
Groups can inspect their collections, change visibility, and add/remove members.
To change an override of a group collection, you need to select an instance of
the group, and then you can choose "group" in the collection properties editor
to edit this group active collection instead of the view layer one.
* Dupli groups overrides
We can now have multiple instances of the same group with an original "override"
and different overrides depending on the collection the instanced object is part
of.
Technical
=========
* Layers
We use the same api for groups and scene as much as possible.

Instead of storing a single active view-layer in the workspace, one is
stored for each scene the workspace showed before.
With this, some things become possible:
* Multiple windows in the same workspace but showing different scenes.
* Toggling back and forth scene keeps same active view-layer for each scene.
* Activating workspace which didn't show current scene before, the current view-layer is kept.
A necessary evil for this is that accessing view-layer and object mode
from .py can't be done via workspace directly anymore. It has to be done
through the window, so RNA can use the correct scene.
So instead of `workspace.view_layer`, it's `window.view_layer` now (same
with mode) even though it's still workspace data.
Fixes T53432.
See https://developer.blender.org/D2417 for details.
Note that since static overrides rely heavily on RNA, this commit is
essentially invisible from user PoV, more in next commits.
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.

Crash introduced on: 3a95bdfc65
We can't decrease user count of freestyle linestyle IDs before linking.
Moving doversion for after linking.
And for the records we are simply removing the freestyle data altogether.
This is only for files created with 2.8, so it should be fine.
This patch moves all the functionality previously in SceneRenderLayer to SceneLayer.
If we want to rename some of these structs now would be a good time to do it, before they are in SceneLayer.
Everything should be working, though I will test things further tomorrow. Once this is committed depsgraph can get
rid of the workaround added in rna_Main_meshes_new_from_object and finish whatever this patch was preventing from being finished.
This patch also adds a few placeholders for the overrides (samples, ...). These are obviously not working, so some unittests that rely on 'lay', and 'zmask' will fail.
This patch does not addressed the change of moving samples to ViewRender (I have this as a separate patch and needs some separate discussion).
Following next is the individual note of the individual parts that were committed.
Note 1: It is up to Cycles to still get rid of exclude_layer internally.
Note 2: Cycles still need to handle its own doversion for the use_layer_samples cases and
(1) Remove the override as it is
(2) Add a new override (scene.cycles.samples) if scene.cycles.use_layer_samples != IGNORE
Respecting the expected behaviour when scene.cycles.use_layer_samples == BOUNDED.
Note 3: Cycles still need to implement the per-object holdout
(similar to how we do shadow catcher).
Note 4: There are parts of the old (Blender Internal) rendering pipeline that is still
using lay, e.g., in shi->lay.
Honestly it will be easier to purge the entire Blender Internal code away instead of taking things from it bit by bit.

We cannot assume a render layer does not have a setting that was needed for
compositing. Even if:
```
(scene->lay & render_layer->lay) != (scene_lay) &&
(render_layer->lay | render_layer->lay_exclude) == 0))
```
Which would mean use the scene layers just as they are.
Note: Cycles still need to handle its own doversion for theses cases and
(1) Remove the override as it is
(2) Add a new override (scene.cycles.samples) if scene.cycles.use_layer_samples != IGNORE
Respecting the expected behaviour when scene.cycles.use_layer_samples == BOUNDED.
We now created nested collections for the original Collection 1, 2 ...
collections for the "hide" and "hide_render" objects.
Also, remove logic for rename single-collection files, it's now kept as
it was originally (Collection 1, Collection 5, ...).
Thanks Sergey Sharybin and Pablo Vazquez for patch review and suggestions.
Checked in really old revisions, seems like this was never used. So
doesn't matter for compatibility either (tested opening files saved with
this in 2.49).
While getting rid of Scene->base we got the following fixes:
* Fix "Convert To" operator
* Fix "NLA allowing to selected objects that are not selectable
* Fix scene.objects (readonly, no option to link/unlink)
Note: Collada needs to use the context SceneLayer for adding objects
however I added a placeholder, so Collada maintainers can fix this
properly.
This moves background images out of the 3D viewport,
to be used only as camera reference images.
For 3D viewport references,
background images can be used, see: D2827
Some work is still needed
(background option isn't working at the moment).
This is a corner-case, but one that is too easy to reproduce:
* Unlink all the collections of active view layer.
* Link a group without "Instancing" it.
Was actually possible to invoke this assert failure in two ways:
* Transforming in newly created 3D View (like described in the report).
* Transforming in newly appended workspace from default workspaces.blend. Issue was that default workspaces.blend was saved in 2.8.1, but in a branch state that didn't include the transform-orientation changes. So versioning code wouldn't run when needed.
Note that files saved with this bug will still cause the assert to
fail. Can be ignored then.
This is not related to manipulators (as suggested in the report).
The idea is following: we do need to have multiple dependency graphs to denote
different scene layers (depsgraph should only contain objects from a specific
scene layer), and we also want to support same scene layer to be evaluated to
a different state in different windows. In order to achieve that we do need to
have a list or hash (for faster lookup presumably) somewhere. To keep things
easier for now, it will be a scene which owns that hash. This seems to make
sense anyway, since dependency graph only points to data which is owned by
scene.
This commit only introduces some basic API and hash itself stored in DNA, there
is no changes in behavior. See this as a first step towards getting rid of
scene-global dependency graph.
