We are not exposing RNA_ObjectBase in the 2.80 API.
Thus we can't have operators relying on it (e.g, CTX_data_visible_bases,
CTX_data_active_base, ...). Otherwise users won't be able to override
context for these operators.
This commit keep the CTX_data_.*bases() functions around so we don't
need to change the operators and potentially break things that late into
2.80. However as far as the Python scripters are concerned there is no
base to be overriden, ever.
That also simplify the guessing game addon developers have to play when
trying to override an operatori context. They still need to find whether an
operator requires editables, visibles, selected, ... objects. But at
least they don't need to find out whether the operators need base or
object.
The maximum particles per task of 256 was outdated and lead to too much thread
contention. Instead define a low fixed number of tasks per thread.
On a i7-7700HQ, creating 4 million particles went down from 31s to 4s.

When rendering viewport to an offscreen buffer the buffer was
constructed for non anti aliasing (0 samples). This made the objects
that are drawn by the `object_mode` including `wireframe` draw type
non-anti-aliased.
The offscreen buffers will be constructed based on the user setting for
viewport multisampling (`U.ogl_multisamples`). The same setting will
also be used when previewing scene strips in the sequencer. For now
this only improves wireframe drawing in the scene strips. To improve the
Anti aliasing in the scene strips we need to get finer control in the
draw manager. This will be part of a different patch I am preparing.
Please note that this patch also cleansup some unused code in the offscreen rendering (FSAA code was still existing, but never called)

This also replaces the Use Alpha setting. We now have these alpha modes:
* Straight: store RGB and alpha channels separately with alpha acting as a
mask, also known as unassociated alpha.
* Premultiplied: transparent RGB pixels are multiplied by the alpha channel.
The natural format for renders.
* Channel Packed: different images are packed in the RGB and alpha channels,
and they should not influence each other. Channel packing is commonly used
by game engines to save memory.
* None: ignore alpha channel from the file and make image fully opaque.
Cycles OSL does not correctly support Channel Packed and None yet, we are
missing fine control over the OpenImageIO texture cache to do that.

The basic idea is that such new images will be packed into the .blend file
when saving all modified images from the quit dialog. To make this workflow
nicer a number of changes were made to how this type of packed image is
handled.
* "Save Modified Images" now packs generated images into the .blend file.
* "Save As" for packed images now automatically unpacks the image, so that
it's easy to save automatically packed images. "Save Copy" keeps it packed.
* "Save" for packed images now re-saves the image into the .blend file, so
that it's effectively the equivalent of "Save" for non-packed images.
* Empty image filepaths are no longer remapped when saving the .blend file.
Previously it would become e.g. "//../../" which makes no sense for generated
images with no filepath yet.
* Hide unpack button and filepath for such packed images with no filepath.
Unpacking does not work in a predictable way without a filepath, better
to just "Save As".
There is now a checkbox to enable/disable depth of field per camera. For Eevee

The goal is to prevent assignment of temporary or evaluated meshes
to objects from the main database.
Majority of the change is actually related on passing reports around.
On a positive side there are more error prints which can become more
visible to scripters.
There are still possible further improvements in the related areas.
For example, disable user counting for evaluated ID datablocks when
assignment happens. But can also happen later on as a separate
improvement.

Makes the result of object.to_mesh() and bpy.meshes.new_from_object()
to be the same as what is visible in the viewport.
This makes Cycles to respect modifiers enabled in edit mode, and should
also easy some scripter's work. The final render still needs some work,
which, maybe, will be about forcing objects out of editing modes.
One of the usecases is to create mesh from an object is a manner similar to
how Apply Modifiers does it, and have it in the bmain so it can be referenced
by other objects.
This usecase is something what went unnoticed in the previous API changes, so
here is a followup.
Summary of changes:
* bpy.meshes.new_from_object() behaves almost the same as before this change.
The difference now is that it now ensures all referenced data-blocks are
original (for example, materials referenced by the mesh).
* object.to_mesh() now creates free-standing Mesh data-block which is outside
of any bmain. The object owns it, which guarantees the memory never leaks.
It is possible to force free memory by calling object.to_mesh_clear().

Main goal here is to make it obvious and predictable about
what is going on.
Summary of changes.
- Access to dependency graph is now only possible to a fully evaluated
graph. This is now done via context.evaluated_depsgraph_get().
The call will ensure both relations and datablocks are updated.
This way we don't allow access to some known bad state of the graph,
and also making explicit that getting update dependency graph is not
cheap.
- Access to evaluated ID is now possible via id.evaluated_get().
It was already possible to get evaluated ID via dependency graph,
but that was a bit confusing why access to original is done via ID
and to evaluated via depsgraph.
If datablock is not covered by dependency graph it will be returned
as-is.
- Similarly, request for original from an ID which is not evaluated
will return ID as-is.
- Removed scene.update().
This is very expensive to update all the view layers.
- Added depsgraph.update().
Now when temporary changes to objects are to be done, this is to
happen on original object and then dependency graph is to be
updated.
- Changed object.to_mesh() to behave the following way:
* When is used for original object modifiers are ignored.
For meshes this acts similar to mesh-copy, not very useful but
allows to keep code paths similar (i.e. for exporter which has
Apply Modifiers option it's only matter choosing between original
and evaluated object, the to_mesh() part can stay the same).
For curves this gives a mesh which is constructed from displist
without taking own modifiers and modifiers of bevel/taper objects
into account.
For metaballs this gives empty mesh.
Polygonization of metaball is not possible from a single object.
* When is used for evaluated object modifiers are always applied.
In fact, no evaluation is happening, the mesh is either copied
as-is, or constructed from current state of curve cache.
Arguments to apply modifiers and calculate original coordinates (ORCO,
aka undeformed coordinates) are removed. The ORCO is to be calculated
as part of dependency graph evaluation.

When normally editing curves, deleting the last keyframe also
deletes the curve. Thus if for some reason it didn't happen,
e.g. maybe due to removing keys directly via Python, skip the
bad curve instead of resetting the channel to zero.
This constraint requires full bone data to evaluate, so it can't
use the generic single target matrix system. Calculating it is
thus useless waste of CPU time.
This is the angular diameter as seen from earth, which is between 0.526° and
0.545° in reality. Sharing the size with other light types did not make much

No major API change here, only in the outliner restriction column
variables (e.g., show_restrict_column_selectable > show_restrict_column_select).
* Get rid of _INSTANCE (introduced on b1af682001).
* Differentiate (everywhere but the API) between HIDE (temporary) and VIEWPORT (global).
* Use the expected icon for restrict viewport (same as objects and modifiers).
* selectable > select
Since drivers on Bone properties are really supposed to be stored
in Armature data and access bones via its bones[] collection, this
lookup path should work efficiently.
Mass lookup of bones by name was already done through hashes,
but they were built temporarily every time that was needed. This
simply replaces it with a common hash table computed immediately
after file load, copy, or Edit to Object mode switch.
Curve function had two arguments:
- for_render, which was originally supposed to be used to control
whether viewport or render visibility for modifiers is to be
used.
- use_render_resolution, which sounds like it is supposed to control
whether viewport or render resolution for curves is to be used.
What is totally confusing is that those arguments were used
interchangeably: sometimes use_render_resolution would control
modifiers visibility.
This commit makes it so there is one single argument for this.
