Readcode always set relative paths of indirectly linked libs relative to
*current* .blend file, not to the library using it.
But BKE_library_filepath_set was then setting them relative to their
parent library, breaking checking code (and saved files even :((( ).
in Scene DNA is available in scene.display New DNA Struct DisplayData
Added RNA (scene.display).
We already have scene.display_settings which contains non viewpoert
specific color management settings. I did not merge those two.
Patch should be in line with the ideas that @brecht wrote in T55008.
As I am not in detail aware of the decisions that have been made for the override feature I want a short review if it is in line with the plans.

Scroll-bars are now hidden unless the cursor approaches them, in which case they
smoothly grow and become more & more visible. Note that since 0d309144020168e55,
scroll-bars are drawn on top of editor contents. There's no more jumping of
buttons when scroll-bars appear.
Technical notes:
* AZones are used to adjust scrollbars based on mouse movements
We may want to support screen level AZones if we want scrollbars to also
smoothly appear when approaching them from a different area.
I also plan to make further changes to AZones to clean up stuff a bit.
* Had to move AZone handling to a post ARegion init stage, since we need the
updated View2D data from there.
* View2D masks and scroller rectangles are now updated on every redraw. It's
cheap to do that though.
For some we may add per object overrides, but for most we plan to keep them
strictly per viewport settings. Display settings from the mesh still need to
be moved here, only collections were done to remove that code.
Initial review of the shard shadows in the workbench engine.
Speed optimizations like transform feedback are not implemented yet. I first want this part to be reviewed and merged.
@fclem please check the note in drw_stencil_set it was holding back nequal == 0 as by default DST.stencil_mask was set to 0. questioin is should we remove the whole check or not.
Also I am still looking for a better name (or split the enum) for DRW_STATE_STENCIL_DEPTH_FAIL_INCR_DECR_WRAP

* Remove the "sync_mode" dropdown from timeline header, and move it into
the Playback menu instead.
* Remove the confusing "Frame Dropping" and "AV Sync" entries from the
Playback menu. These were supposed to be mutually exclusive (or else,
the "sync_mode" menu would break).
* Turn AV Sync on by default
* Commented out the Frame Dropping and Av Sync RNA Properties too.
THere doesn't seem to be any valid reason for these to exist?
It's usefull in some scenario to tweak the specular intensity of a light
without modifying the diffuse contribution.
Cycles allows it via lamps material which we currently not support in Eevee.
This is a good workaround for now.
For Blender 2.8 we had to be compatible with very old OpenGL versions, and
triple buffer was designed to work without offscreen rendering, by copying
the the backbuffer to a texture right before swapping. This way we could
avoid redrawing unchanged regions by copying them from this texture on the
next redraws. Triple buffer used to suffer from poor performance and driver
bugs on specific cards, so alternative draw methods remained available.
Now that we require newer OpenGL, we can have just a single draw method
that draw each region into an offscreen buffer, and then draws those to
the screen. This has some advantages:
* Poor 3D view performance when using Region Overlap should be solved now,
since we can also cache overlapping regions in offscreen buffers.
* Page flip, anaglyph and interlace stereo drawing can be a little faster
by avoiding a copy to an intermediate texture.
* The new 3D view drawing already writes to an offscreen buffer, which we
can draw from directly instead of duplicating it to another buffer.
* Eventually we will be able to remove depth and stencil buffers from the
window and save memory, though at the moment there are still some tools
using it so it's not possible yet.
* This also fixes a bug with Eevee sampling not progressing with stereo
drawing in the 3D viewport.

Both the scene and workspace had an active view layer, and it was confusing
which settings were being used or displayed where. Now we always have one,
so there is no mismatch.
The "View Layers" tab in the properties editor is now "View Layer", no longer
showing a list of layers. Instead view layers can be added and removed with
the workspace view layer selector. They are also listed and selectable in the
outliner.
Single layer rendering uses the active view layer from the workspace.
This fixes bugs where the wrong active view layer was used, but more places
remain that are wrong and are now using the first view layer in the scene.
These are all marked with BKE_view_layer_context_active_PLACEHOLDER.
* "Scenes" now shows for each scene lists of all view layers, collections and
objects contained in it. This is the place to see all collections and objects
in the scene even if they are not used in any view layer. Objects are nested
according to parenting here.
* "Collections" now shows all collections in the view layer, and the objects
in those collections. Objects are not nested by parenting, only collections
since it would be too confusing if the children are in a different collection.
* "Groups" is unchanged.
* "View Layer" was removed, replaced by "Collections".
Part of T54790.
While window manager is supposed to exist after file was fully read
and do-versioned, we can not rely on window manager to exist while
reading file and setting up an environment.
Timelines and Logic Editors are gone. So far they were simply replaced by broken
Info Editors, now they are replaced by Dopesheets in the new Timeline mode.
We reuse ScrArea.butspacetype to temporarily store the space-type identifier of
the deprecated editor (see 9db492de6d). That way we can identify it in
versioning code and replace it nicely.
Action editor creation needs a scene to set the scrolling based on frame range.
Active screen-layouts use the active scene of the window they are displayed in.
Inactive screens simply use the first scene in the main data base.
Note that inactive editors don't need version patching, readfile.c converts them
to SPACE_EMPTY already, so users can't activate them.
Files saved since the editors were removed will still be broken.
Workspace config files saved before this will also crash (will update default
one in followup commit).
The only real reason we need `butspacetype` is while switching areas, where we
need to delay the actual switch to the RNA _update callback since only there we
can access context.
So instead of trying to sync it with `spacetype`, only set while needed and
unset it afterwards (as in set to `SPACE_EMPTY`).
This should also allow us to re-use `butspacetype` in versioning code when
trying to read removed editors. It'll store the space type value of the removed
editor which we can then use on versioning.
For backwards compatibility, we store `butspacetype` with the value of
`spacetype`.
This will never get run, because direct_link_area() already flags/resets
every space type isn't registered, meaning that we don't have any opportunity
to apply our patching.
This commit removes all references to the old timeline editor.
Unfortuantely, the removal of the Timeline spacetype defining
functions has ended up breaking the version patching code I'd
been working on earlier (as now, the editor gets marked as
"unknown/info" before we get a chance to patch it!)
After a lot of failed attempts and head banging working trying to find a way to reuse
the standard editor-switching/creation code, I've just hacked in a temporary solution
here so that users can load old files and see the old timeline instances replaced
with Dopesheet-Timelines.
Note: This is not nice code, and copies a lot of the standard initialisation code,
but it works well enough for now. We can revisit this later when the other mode changes
come along.
These were runtime only data, used in pre 2.8 Blender to make use of GL vertex arrays
to draw these more efficiently. Maybe we might restore these sometime as an optimisation
step, but for now, they're not needing and were confusing.
== Main Features/Changes for Users
* Add horizontal bar at top of all non-temp windows, consisting out of two horizontal sub-bars.
* Upper sub-bar contains global menus (File, Render, etc.), tabs for workspaces and scene selector.
* Lower sub-bar contains object mode selector, screen-layout and render-layer selector. Later operator and/or tool settings will be placed here.
* Individual sections of the topbar are individually scrollable.
* Workspace tabs can be double- or ctrl-clicked for renaming and contain 'x' icon for deleting.
* Top-bar should scale nicely with DPI.
* The lower half of the top-bar can be hided by dragging the lower top-bar edge up. Better hiding options are planned (e.g. hide in fullscreen modes).
* Info editors at the top of the window and using the full window width with be replaced by the top-bar.
* In fullscreen modes, no more info editor is added on top, the top-bar replaces it.
== Technical Features/Changes
* Adds initial support for global areas
A global area is part of the window, not part of the regular screen-layout.
I've added a macro iterator to iterate over both, global and screen-layout level areas. When iterating over areas, from now on developers should always consider if they have to include global areas.
* Adds a TOPBAR editor type
The editor type is hidden in the UI editor type menu.
* Adds a variation of the ID template to display IDs as tab buttons (template_ID_tabs in BPY)
* Does various changes to RNA button creation code to improve their appearance in the horizontal top-bar.
* Adds support for dynamically sized regions. That is, regions that scale automatically to the layout bounds.
The code for this is currently a big hack (it's based on drawing the UI multiple times). This should definitely be improved.
* Adds a template for displaying operator properties optimized for the top-bar. This will probably change a lot still and is in fact disabled in code.
Since the final top-bar design depends a lot on other 2.8 designs (mainly tool-system and workspaces), we decided to not show the operator or tool settings in the top-bar for now. That means most of the lower sub-bar is empty for the time being.
NOTE: Top-bar or global area data is not written to files or SDNA. They are simply added to the window when opening Blender or reading a file. This allows us doing changes to the top-bar without having to care for compatibility.
== ToDo's
It's a bit hard to predict all the ToDo's here are the known main ones:
* Add options for the new active-tool system and for operator redo to the topbar.
* Automatically hide the top-bar in fullscreen modes.
* General visual polish.
* Top-bar drag & drop support (WIP in temp-tab_drag_drop).
* Improve dynamic regions (should also fix some layout glitches).
* Make internal terminology consistent.
* Enable topbar file writing once design is more advanced.
* Address TODO's and XXX's in code :)
Thanks @brecht for the review! And @sergey for the complaining ;)
