ViewRender was removed, which means we can't get the render engine for files
saved in 2.8. We assume that any files saved in 2.8 were intended to use Eevee
and set the engine to that.
A fix included with this is that .blend thumbails now draw with Clay mode,
and never Eevee or Cycles. These were drawn with solid mode in 2.7, and should
be very fast and not e.g. load heavy image textures.

Assume files saved in 2.8 were intended for Eevee and set them to material
viewport shading. In Eevee this is equal to rendered draw mode, in Cycles
this will draw with Eevee. This way Eevee demo files still show something
interesting when opened.
- added the drawtype_solid, drawtype_wireframe, drawtype_texture to
View3D
- enabled workbench panels for important render engines
- merged workbench_materials to solid_flat_mode. All draw modes will get
its own fast implementation in the workbench
Folders removed entirely:
* //extern/recastnavigation
* //intern/decklink
* //intern/moto
* //source/blender/editors/space_logic
* //source/blenderplayer
* //source/gameengine
This includes DNA data and any reference to the BGE code in Blender itself.
We are bumping the subversion.
Pending tasks:
* Tile/clamp code in image editor draw code.
* Viewport drawing code (so much of this will go away because of BI removal
that we can wait until then to remove this.
For correct results these must have been set already when the depsgraph was
created and evaluated, so all dependencies have appropriate resolutions too.
For particle we no longer backup and restore the viewport particles to avoid
overwriting them during render, as copy-on-write solves this for us. Even
without COW particles seem to work ok.
This also removes the particle simplification options based on camera. This
was never used much and only available in Blender Internal.

Having that one when opening a file or loading some lib makes absolutely
no sense, and switching that 'temp' editor to some other type can
trigger all kind of funny bugs...
Note that using the shortcuts keys (Shift-F5 etc.) is still possible,
removing those seems a bit more involved. :/
WEBM is the codec name, and VP9 is the encoder (the older encoder "VP8"
is less efficient than VP9).
WEBM/VP9 and h.264 both have options to control the file size versus
compression time (e.g. fast but big, or slow and small, for the same
output quality). Since WEBM/VP9 only has three choices, I've chosen to
map those to 3 of the 9 possible choices of h.264:
- BEST → SLOWER
- GOOD → MEDIUM
- REALTIME → SUPERFAST
The VERYSLOW and ULTRAFAST options give very little extra benefit.

The encoding panel mentions "None" in a few places, which is confusing.
- "Codec: None" now reads "No Video"
- "Audio Codec: None" now reads "No Audio"
- "Output Quality: None; ..." now reads "Constant Bitrate"
When selecting "No Video" the remaining video encoding options are
hidden, making it even more explicit that there will not be video in the
output file.
The label "Codec" now reads "Video Codec" for symmetry with "Audio
Codec".
This is useful to create a mapping from the frame range in the video to
frame index in the blend file.

Back in the days (2.4x and before), it was rather easy to get some
invalid utf-8 strings in Blender. This is totally breaking modern code,
so this commit adds a simple 'check & fix strings' operator, available
from the main File menu.
- See `--log` help message for usage.
- Supports enabling categories.
- Color severity.
- Optionally logs to a file.
- Currently use to replace printf calls in wm module.
See D3120 for details.
If no custom URL was set, add-ons would get a "Report a Bug" button opening
the default developer.blender.org bug tracker. Now we only add this default
