We only keep this as a way to get GPU_stubs to run, in case we want to do a
throughout cleanup in the codebase and want code using legacy calls to
fail to build.
The "Modern Viewport" was an option in the Viewport panel that would use
the new fancy wire frame code and some depth debugging functionality.
This was introduced as a quick and dirty way to get the new drawing
system showing in the viewport.
Overtime we built a complete Draw Manager system, leaving this original
approach deprecated which adds clutter to Blender code since it would be
removed sooner or later.
Note: The new fancy wireframes and related shaders (white out other
objects) are still in Blender code, though you can't use them anymore.
If we are to have any of those drawing options they should be integrated
in the new draw manager, instead of integrated in the old drawing
pipeline as it was originally coded.
It is not a good idea to:
1. Duplicate metadata to self
2. Ignore the fact that something might have had metadata already.
Also moved metadata copy to a preparation function, so it is
never lost.
Although this is working fine, there are two changes expected in the new
future once depsgraph copy on write is implemented:
1) To call ED_info_stats_clear a callback from depsgraph, instead of the
notifier system. (that would also allow us to clear only one
SceneLayer).
2) To store/get stats from the evaluated SceneLayer, as well as iterate
over the evaluated objects as well.
This commit fixes crash, but user feedback can be improved here to
inform artist that one can't use Render Result as a texture since that
will cause feedback loop.
Basically upon invoking cycles baking we could canell it which would
leave G.is_break hanging as true. Since we were not setting is_break to
false before exec baking, it would misbehave.
Adds a version of template_ID that can be used for non-ID properties.
The property to search for and the collection to search in has to be
passed to it.
Like template_ID it also takes arguments to define a 'new' and 'unlink'
operator. They will be displayed as icon-only buttons then.
Also added a version that can display preview thumbnails.
Had to do some additional changes to make text-buttons support
displaying/modifying empty RNA properties.
This will be needed for workspaces, see D2451.

Caused by rBe87ddda149b. Selecting objects shouldn't be done in such a
low level function anyway (IMHO).
Made sure duplicating objects still works correctly.
