Blender does string based searching in many different places.
This patch updates four of these places to use the new string
search api in `BLI_string_search.h`.
In the future we probably want to update the other searches as well.

This adds a generic string search library in `BLI_string_search.h`.
The library has a simple to use C api that allows it's users to
filter and sort a set of possible search results based on some
query string.

-1 is a valid value to pass as RNA float precision. We let the UI code
figure out an appropriate precision then. So don't fail the assert if
-1 is passed.
The point cache code needs a non NULL rbw pointer.
This could have been avoided if there was a sanity check in the convert
function, so added a check there as well.
On systems with 512kb stack this happened at around 13k points.
This happened at times with grease-pencil, although callers that
frequently use complex polygons should be using BLI_polyfill_calc_arena.
This reverts commit 637a5c964a.
I commited the previous commit because I wasn't building with openvdb.
Compiling with openvdb fix the clang-tidy errror.
This removes from the UI all tools with missing icons and hides them
under a "Tools with missing icons" experimental option.
We agree on not making available by default tools in master without icons.
Having this experimental flag will allow to commit new tools as soon as the
technical design and implementation is finished so development can
continue, without adding broken icons to the UI.

Add support for object data instancing. This is used when the objects
are instances, for example when duplicated by a particle system, or
instanced by the duplication system (collection-duplicating empties,
vertex/face duplis, etc.)
Since Alembic already deduplicates data, this doesn't make the resulting
Alembic files any smaller. They will be faster to write, though, when
there is a lot of instanced geometry, as the deduplication system won't
have to do any comparisons.
This instancing support is still limited, in the sense that only object
data is instanced and all transforms are still written explicitly. A
future improvement could be to support instancing entire collection
hierarchies.
Blender's Alembic importer has no understanding of these Alembic
instances yet, and will thus happily duplicate the data on import.
The USD Alembic plugin seems to have problems understanding the
instancing. There might also be other software with similar issues.
Because of this, instancing can be turned off in the exporter (it's on
by default).
* Match menu items with Add Menu (order and naming e.g. Font -> Text)
* Use Icons
* Remove ellipsis from the name (policy is to use `...` only when triggering a window/popup)
No functional changes.
Thanks @HooglyBoogly for the help!
Split `ABCHierarchyIterator::get_alembic_parent()` into two functions:
- For a given export path, find the Alembic object
- Ensure that that object is usable as parent object (Alembic uses a
specific 'top' object as parent to indicate "no parent").
The new function is `public` as it will be used in an upcoming feature,
and is required to be public then.
No functional changes.
Split the `ABCHierarchyIterator::create_data_writer()` function into two
functions. This is to prepare for the creation of writers not just by
object type, but also by goal, for example writers that reference other
Alembic data instead of writing their own (i.e. instancing).
No functional changes.
The draw manager test case initialized ghost, gpu and draw manager. This
change splits the base test case to GPU specific and draw manager
specific test case.
The GPU test base test case will be used for low level GPU tests.
Memory leak is introduced as test cases reinitializes the GPU stack.
Added a call to GPU_backend_exit to fix this.
In GPU_backend_exit the GPU backend was destroyed but the pointer wasn't
reset for reuse. This patch also clears the pointer to be reused.
Extract the mesh instancing code from the mesh writing function into a
generic 'mark as instance' function on the abstract USD writer. This will
help in supporting non-mesh instances.
No functional changes.
Refactor `ED_object_parent_set`:
- Mark parameters `ob` and `par` as `const` so that it's clear the
function doesn't assign any other value to them.
- Rename `pararm` to `is_armature_parent`; I mis-read it as `param` all
the time, and it was very confusing.
- Replace repeated `if-else` statements with `switch` statements.
- Reorder preconditions to have some simple checks first.
- Flip condition on a huge `if`-statement to return early and unindent
the remainder of the function.
This function still requires splitting up into smaller functions, but at
least this is a step forward.
No functional changes.
This patch supports instantiating object data on append/link,
reported as a bug T58304.
This is an option, available when linking/appending,
similar to the existing "Instance Collections" option.

Move arguments to BLO_library_link_{begin/named_part/end} into
a single parameter struct, to ensure arguments always match.
This allows is to skip tagging ID's LIB_TAG_DOIT when it's not needed,
previously it was always cleared just in case it was needed.
This also makes it possible to remove BLO_library_link_named_part_ex
which was only used when tagging was needed.
This makes the GPUContext follow the same naming convention as the rest
of the module.
Also add a static getter for extra bonus style (no need for casts):
- Context::get()
- GLContext::get()
- Use the syntactic wrap/unwrap method to make code more readable.
- Update comment about hidden struct behind opaque types.
- Cleanup GPUDrawList type.
