All in all, this patch adds an Alembic importer, an Alembic exporter,
and a new CacheFile data block which, for now, wraps around an Alembic
archive. This data block is made available through a new modifier ("Mesh
Sequence Cache") as well as a new constraint ("Transform Cache") to
somewhat properly support respectively geometric and transformation data
streaming from alembic caches.
A more in-depth documentation is to be found on the wiki, as well as a
guide to compile alembic: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/

Many thanks to everyone involved in this little project, and huge shout
out to "cgstrive" for the thorough testings with Maya, 3ds Max, Houdini
and Realflow as well as @fjuhec, @jensverwiebe and @jasperge for the
custom builds and compile fixes.

There were two issues here. One is that the fix done originally for this
bug only checks for colliding with the same face as the single preceeding
hit. If the particle hits an edge or vertex of the collider, it in fact
hits two or more faces, so the loop ends up cycling between first two
of them and reaches the max collision limit.
The fix is to disable the collider for the sim step once a permeability
roll succeeds, by adding it to a skip list. Skipping just one face causes
some particles to bounce at odd angles in case of partial permeability.
The second problem was that the collider bounced back a small percentage
of particles, and the cause seemed to be that the code was set to flip
the velocity if the particle was just past the collider but still within
collision distance. Inverting both values causes a half permeable collider
to stop particles, so it seems that this if branch shouldn't bounce at all.

Adds a descriptor for attributes that can easily be passed around and extended
to contain more data. Will be used for attributes on subdivision meshes.

* "Flip direction" -> "Flip Direction"
* "Show drawing direction" -> "Show Directions"
* "Grease Pencil Curves" -> "Brush Curves"
(I was considering "Brush Response Curves" instead, but that seemed like too much
of a mouthful)
* "X" for removing a palette. The UI there was more similar to a standard datablock
selector, so it should use the "+X" combo instead of "+-" combo for consistency.
(Note though, presets tend to use "+-" instead - e.g. see the Render Settings)
Previously, it would insert "invisible" points after the endpoints of the strokes,
so that they wouldn't appear to be joined, but that behaviour could also get quite
confusing as you wouldn't be sure whether the strokes were really joined or not.
To keep the previous behaviour, simply enable the "Leave Gaps" option on the operator
after running it. This setting will get saved between runs of the operator.
Group membership testing for including/excluding feature lines was not
accounting for object names possibly further qualified by library file
paths.
Also fixed a few potential (but unlikely) references of uninitialized
variables.
A big thank to Bastien Montagne for the insight on the cause of the
problem and how to fix it.
There were actually two issues, one in recent changes and one existing... forever?
I) id_make_local() would never proceed over indirectly linked data, which is required in specific 'append' context.
II) BKE_image_copy() was not setting id->newid pointer of newly copied ID.
About II: don't really know why image copy does its own cooking instead of using generaic ID copy helpers.
Think this should be changed, but that would be after 2.78 now.
Drawing both text and the wave onto a sound strip makes both hard to read,
which is a concrete issue for Hjalti at the moment. This was the simplest
fix I could think of to give him control over what he sees.
ARB_framebuffer_object replaces several related EXT extensions. The ARB
version pulls GL 3 FBO features into GL 2.1, useful for Mac platform.
Its functions and enums have no ARB suffix so transition to modern GL
will be seamless!
Extension is checked at startup, so is guaranteed to be true at runtime.

Mac’s OpenGL version is furthest away from our target of GL 3.2. This
commit brings Mac closer to other platforms, so that our shaders and
other code don’t diverge too much during development.
According to Apple’s OpenGL matrix these useful extensions are
available on all GPUs that will be able to run Blender 2.8.
Only checked in debug builds; we might need something more forceful.

Currently cycles cannot correctly render motion blur for objects that appear or
disappear during the shutter window. Until that can be fixed properly, it may be
better to hide such particles rather than let them render as if they were
stationary for half of the frame.

The first two of several new simple built-in shaders (will test these
before adding more). These are intended for the new immediate mode API,
but you can use them just like any built-in GPUShader.
Due to limitations on different platforms, shaders need to work with
GLSL versions 120, 130 and 150. Final Blender 2.8 will be pure #version
150.
Introducing an immediate mode drawing API that works with modern GL 3.2
core profile. I wrote and tested this using a core context on Mac.
This is part of the Gawain library which is Apache 2 licensed. Be very
careful not to pull other Blender code into these files.
Modifications for the Blender integration:
- prefix filenames to match rest of Blender’s GPU libs
- include GPU_glew.h instead of <OpenGL/gl3.h>
- disable thread-local vars until we figure out how best to do this
It is possible that compilation will fail without giving anything in the
log buffer. For this cases giving a tip about error code will be really
handy.
Patch by @Ilia, thanks!
This implements Mac part of T49012.
Removed options for EGL, ES2, compatibility profile. None of these
exist on Mac platform.
Create a GL 3.2 core context when requested at build time. Old code
just pretended to support core profile.
Now all consistent and using term "properties region" instead of "properties panel". Ideally we had a more generic operator for all those.
Fixes T49006.
Implements the Linux part of T49012.
Simplify the options for context creation. No options for legacy GL or EGL or ES2. Select 3.2 CORE or COMPATIBILITY profile at build time.
If that fails, use a GL 3.0 context. This keeps Mesa supported while we work on full 3.2 core elsewhere in the code.
This greatly simplifies the options for context creation. No options for
legacy GL or EGL or ES2. Select CORE or COMPATIBILITY profile at build
time.
OpenGL 3.2 core profile will be our final target on all platforms. Until
all our code is ready we can use 3.2 compatibility profile or "legacy"
GL 2.1 on platforms that don't support compatibility profile.
This patch improves UI of a recently added solver preference in boolean modifier:

Issue with the current UI is that it shows user unnecessary information and breaks established grid layout.

This changes actually lead to 2x slowdown. It's getting a bit annoying
because those are the changes to make pre-maxwell cards render with the
same speed.
