Implementing a new intelligent mixing mode that combines quaternions
via multiplication requires rewriting the NLA code to recombine array
properties from separate scalar channels during evaluation.
In addition, stable evaluation of NLA stack requires that any channel
that is touched by any of the actions in the stack should always be
set to a definite value by evaluation, even if no strip affects it
at this point of the timeline. The obvious choice for the fallback
is the default value of the property.
To make scanning all actions reasonably efficient, mapping paths to
channels should be done using hash tables.

Does the following changes visible to users:
* Use panels and sub-panels for more structured & logical grouping
* Re-organized options more logically than before (see images in D4148)
* Use flow layout (single column by default).
* New layout uses horizontal margin if there's enough space.
* Change size of Preferences window to suit new layout.
* Move keymap related options from "Input" into own section.
* Own, left-bottom aligned region for Save Preferences button.
* Adjustments of names, tooltips & icons.
* Move buttons from header into the main region (except editor switch).
* Hide Preferences header when opened in temporary window.
* Use full area width for header.
* Don't use slider but regular number widget for UI scale.
* Gray out animation player path option if player isn't "Custom"
Internal changes:
* Rearrange RNA properties to match changed UI structure.
* Introduces new "EXECUTE" region type, see reasoning in D3982.
* Changes to panel layout and AZone code for dynamic panel region.
* Bumps subversion and does versioning for new regions.
RNA changes are documented in the release notes:

Design & implementation mostly done by @billreynish and myself.

Needed to port operator to use evaluated particle system.
But also changed interface to always show Convert button when
draw type is set to Path (Hair particle system is forced to
be draws as path). This avoid rather expensive lookup on every
redraw, but will show Convert button for un-baked particle
emitter.
Probably, an acceptable compromise.
Am not totally convinced that generating meshes without fully valid
material info is a good thing, but this seems to be rather common in our
code base (in both mesh editing and convert-to-mesh cases).
So for now, duplicated code in mesh eval finalization to main displist
creation/eval function, synchronizing mat data at the end of modifiers
stack eval, if needed.
- Remove pathlib use
(was converting to/from string with no real advantage).
- Use user_resource(..., create=True) to ensure the path exists.
- Pass full path to BKE_studiolight_create, don't add extension after.
- Fix 'sl' filtering glob and move from ui code to operator.
- Fix string copy length.
The clipboard is not a real user and should not be counted. Only on paste
should the user count increase.
This is part of D3621, and was implemented by Richard Antalik and me.
The GP_STROKE_RECALC_CACHE identifier was changed to GP_STROKE_RECALC_GEOMETRY because the previous name was confusing and could be confused with the recalculation of the Draw Manager cache.
Curve modifier eval code was actually doing nothing to ensure we passed
mesh with valid normals when required by the modifier.
This is a bit basic, rough code, but think it should cover all cases,
time will say...
The issue was caused by NaN valid of the average spring length being
stored in the file. This caused accumulation in the springs builder
to also deliver NaNs, which then caused solver itself to not do
anything.
Not sure why these values where never initialized prior to the
accumulation. Or even, why this runime data is stored in a DNA.
Some sanitizing is possible here, but needs to be done with care
to not disrupt Spring production.
Object visibility is now handled by the depsgraph iterator, but this API
was incomplete as it made no distinction for visibility of the object itself,
particles and generated instances.
The depsgraph iterator API now includes information about which part of the
object is visible, and this is used by Cycles to replace the old custom logic.
Cycles and EEVEE visibility should now be consistent, which unfortunately does
means some subtle compatibility breakage for both.
Fixes T58956, T58202, T59284.

The issue was caused by shape keys datablock from evaluated mesh
being added to the main database.
This commit makes it so shape keys are not copied for the mesh
used as cage.
We were never removing the parent collection from a collection upon removal
of the parent.

There is no point having operations that iterate over the whole
bit array as macros, so convert BLI_BITMAP_SET_ALL to a function.
Also, add more utilities for copying and manipulating masks.

This commit makes it so curve path parent solving accepts an explicit
arguments for both time and curve speed flag, making it so we don't
have to mock around with scene's frame.
One unfortunate issue still is that if the instancing object is used
for something else, we might be running into a threading conflict.
Possible solution would be to create a temp copy of an object, but
then it will be an issue of preventing drivers from modifying other
datablocks.
At least the original issue is fixed now, and things behave same as
in older Blender version. Additionally, the global variable which
was defining curve speed flag behavior is gone now!
This aims to resolve a conflict where some users want to keep keyboard
axis setting global, even when the orientation is set to something else.
Move/rotate/scale can optionally each have a separate orientation.
Some UI changes will be made next.
