GSOC 2017 by Darshan Kadu, see: D2859.
This is a partial merge of some of the features from
the soc-2017-vertex_paint branch.
- Alpha painting & drawing.
- 10 new color blending modes.
- Support for vertex select in vertex paint mode.
2016 GSOC project by @nathanvollmer, see D2150
- Mirrored painting and radial symmetry, like in sculpt mode.
- Volume based splash prevention,
which avoids painting vertices far away from the 3D brush location.
- Normal based splash prevention,
which avoids painting vertices with normals opposite the normal
at the 3D brush location.
- Blur mode now uses a nearest neighbor average.
- Average mode, which averages the color/weight
of the vertices within the brush
- Smudge mode, which pulls the colors/weights
along the direction of the brush
- RGB^2 color blending, which gives a more accurate
blend between two colors
- multithreading support. (PBVH leaves are painted in parallel.)
- Foreground/background color picker in vertex paint
This adds TAA to eevee. The only thing important to note is that we need to keep the unjittered depth buffer so that the other engines are composited correctly.
It has been deprecated since at least macOS 10.9 and fully removed in 10.12.
I am unsure if we should remove it only in 2.8. But you cannot build blender with it supported when using a modern xcode version anyway so I would tend towards just removing it also for 2.79 if that ever happens.

The issue was caused by operator redo which frees all object's evaluated data,
including bounding box. This bounding box can not be reconstructed properly
without full curve evaluation (need to at least convert font to nurbs, which is
not cheap already).
Previously only the active object was used.
Use coroutines to support baking frames for multiple objects at once,
without having to playback the animation multiple times.
This brings some data structure changes.
Shared shadow data are stored in ShadowData (in glsl) (aka EEVEE_Shadow in C).
This structure contains the array indices of the first shadow element of this shadow "object".
It also contains how many shadow to evaluate (to be used for Multiple shadow maps).
The filtering is noisy and needs improvement.
It's purpose is to limit the amount of light that spread across the screen.
Not entierly sure if it's very usefull, but it sure help to avoid to drown the screen in bloom.
Since we started supporting the (Cycles) Material Output old files
stopped working. There is no reason to keep the original Eevee material
otuput anymore.
It includes doversion for old files.
This includes big improvement:
- The horizon search is decoupled from the BSDF evaluation. This means using multiple BSDF nodes have a much lower impact when enbaling AO.
- The horizon search is optimized by splitting the search into 4 corners searching similar directions to help which GPU cache coherence.
- The AO options are now uniforms and do not trigger shader recompilation (aka. freeze UI).
- Include a quality slider similar to the SSR one.
- Add a switch for disabling bounce light approximation.
- Fix problem with Bent Normals when occlusion get very dark.
- Add a denoise option to that takes the neighbors pixel values via glsl derivatives. This reduces noise but exhibit 2x2 blocky artifacts.
The downside : Separating the horizon search uses more memory (~3MB for each samples on HD viewport). We could lower the bit depth to 4bit per horizon but it produce noticeable banding (might be fixed with some dithering).
This patch adds "Pixel Size" to the performance options, which allows to render
in a smaller resolution, which is especially useful for displays with high DPI.

Own previous fix (rBd5d626df236b) was not valid, curves are actually
supported by SoftBodies. It was rather a mere UI bug, which was not
including Surfaces and Font obect types in those valid for softbody UI.
Thanks to @brecht for the head up!
Also, fix safe for 2.79, btw.
