Avoid creating new Python instances
every time a scene, object, mesh .. etc are accessed.
Also resolves crashes T28724, T53530
although it's only valid for ID types, not modifiers vertices etc.
Back-ported from blender2.8 branch.
This only applies to ID being copied outside of bmain. Handy for cases when it
is important to check if the copy corresponds to a data block coming from
library.
Example of that is proxy evaluation with copy on write.
Thanks Bastien for review!
* For the T48988 fix (i.e. separate Ease In/Out properties for Bendy Bones
in Edit vs Pose modes), old animation data needed to be patched to use
the new property names. This is needed to partially fix some of the
issues in T53356 (though the Rigify code itself still needs to be patched).
* For the T52009 fix, old files needed to have the frame_start and frame_end
properties on the FModifier (base-class) updated to match that of the
FMod_Stepped type-specific class. This wasn't done in the earlier commit
since it wasn't worth going through all animation data just for the sake
of updating these relatively-rare settings, but since we're doing it anyway
now, it makes sense to include this here.
Do a direct update of object transform instead, without involving
manual trickery of recalc flag.
Shouldn't be functional changes as far as artists are concerned,
but will allow us to get rid of recalc flags in 2.8.
Thanks Bastien for review!
This is fully unreadable to have lots of boolean arguments scattered across the
whole argument list. What does `false, true, true` mean in terms of behavior?
Replace those with bitfield which has advantage of having more human readable
meaning.
Pretty straightforward this time, we already have a single struct
pointer containing all needed data (or nearly).
And we gain about 10-15% speed on tracking! :)
Faces that have the last two indices equal are considered triangles, and not those that the last index is 0
Improvement of 7% in performance of the `polygonize` function
* Fix saving a multiview render from the image editor giving invalid files.
* Fix failure to load multiview images with a single view per part.
* Fix loss of multiview metadata when saving/loading a single view.
* Fix Z-Buffer writing option for single layer EXR not being respected.
Multiview EXRs are now always handled as multilayer internally, significantly
reducing the amount of code.

The algorithm averages normals from nearby surfaces. It uses the same
sampling strategy as BSSRDFs, casting rays along the normal and two
orthogonal axes, and combining the samples with MIS.
The main concern here is that we are introducing raytracing inside
shader evaluation, which could be quite bad for GPU performance and
stack memory usage. In practice it doesn't seem so bad though.
Note that using this feature can easily slow down renders 20%, and
that if you care about performance then it's better to use a bevel
modifier. Mainly this is useful for baking, and for cases where the
mesh topology makes it difficult for the bevel modifier to work well.

This makes code closer to id_override/assent-engine ones, which
introduce a new type of linked data, and hence reserve
ID_IS_LINKED_DATABLOCK to real linked datablocks.
