Currently the action channels are applied after the existing
transformation, as if the action controlled a child of the
bone. This is not very natural, but more importantly, the
transform tools are not designed to work conveniently with an
additional 'pseudo-child' transformation, resulting in effects
like an unexpected pivot location.
Implementing a Before mode that integrates the action channels
as if applied to a parent allows using the special transform
tool code intended for dealing with such constraints.
Note that in either mode, Action constraints should be added
in reverse order, putting a new constraint before the existing
ones that the Action was keyframed to work together.
In order to implement the option, extract a utility from
the Copy Transform constraint code for combining transforms
with special anti-shear scale handling that matches the
Aligned Inherit Scale mode.
The Before mode also requires switching the constraint to
the Local owner space, while the After mode can still use the
World space for efficiency as before. Since the constraint
doesn't have an Owner space option in the UI, this has to be
handled in an RNA setter.
For full backward compatibility, the original simple matrix
multiplication mode is preserved as the third option, but it
is not recommended due to creating shear.

Most of the time Stretch To is used in actual rigs, like BlenRig
or Rigify, in combination with Damped Track to handle rotation
before the stretch, because it produces rotations more appropriate
for organic deformation, and doesn't flip because of internal
gimbal lock.
The prevalence of this pattern suggests that Stretch To should
support that kind of rotation directly as an option.

Combine computing `size` and normalizing the matrix, invert the
direction of `vec` to avoid negating it later, use `rescale_m4`
instead of matrix multiplication to scale the final result.

In 2011 special handling was introduced, apparently for no other
reason than to address a complaint in T25707 that World and Local
space are equivalent for objects without parent. This causes issues
and confusion, as mentioned in rB599c8a2c8e4.
This special meaning of Local Space is not documented in the manual,
and is not known to experienced riggers, so removing it should not
be a problem.

Allow selecting how the new location/rotation/scale is combined with
the existing transformation. This is most useful for rotation, which
has multiple options, and scale, which previously could only replace.

Allow combining location, rotation and scale at the same time,
using one constraint. The mixing modes are based on matrix
multiplication, but handle scale in a way that avoids creating
shear.

Upon close inspection, the way the Offset mode works in the
Copy Rotation constraint makes no sense, and in fact, destroys
the rotation of its owner unless either it's single axis, or
the order is set specifically to `ZYX Euler`.
Since it can't simply be changed because of backward compatibility
concerns, replace the checkbox with a dropdown that provides a set
of new modes that actually make sense.
Specifically, add a mode that simply adds Euler components together,
and two options that use matrix multiplication in different order.
The Python use_offset property is replaced with compatibility stubs.

For reasons similar to drivers, it should be possible to set an
explicit Euler rotation order in constraints that use Euler angles.
The Transform constraint in a way approaches drivers in its use,
in that it effectively alters channels using values of other
channels after applying a fixed form mathematical expression.
For this reason, instead of just specifying the euler order for
its inputs, it uses the same enum as driver variables. However
Quaternion components are converted to a weighted pseudo-angle
representation as the rest of the constraint UI expects angles.

Uniform scale is superior to non-uniform scale in that it works with
parenting without causing shear. Thus it is a valid desire in some
cases to turn arbitrary scale into guaranteed uniform scale.
Implementing this in the Copy Scale constraint allows one for instance
to 'inherit scale as uniform' by disabling Inherit Scale, and using
Copy Scale from parent with Offset and Make Uniform.

This option from the very beginning of its existence needed more work
to make it work correct and this was never done.
This option was working fine during continuous playback, when there
are no skipped frames, but it was failing when AV-sync of framedrop
was enabled.
It was never working correct when jumping between frames, including
rendering on a farm which usually does frame-range based rendering.
With copy-on-write things became even more tricky, since the "stuck"
flag was never preserved between re-evaluations.

Better to make internal code naming match official/UI naming to some
extent, this will reduce confusion in the future.
This is 'breaking' scripts and files that would use that feature, but
since it is not yet officially supported nor exposed in 2.80, as far
as that release is concerned, it is effectively
a 'no functional changes' commit.

This also makes `IDP_CopyProperty` the "opposite"
of `IDP_FreeProperty`, which is what I'd expect.
Two refactoring steps:
* rename IDP_FreeProperty to IDP_FreePropertyContent
* new IDP_FreeProperty function that actually frees the property

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.
|
|
Since scale is multiplicative, the appropriate way to partially copy
it is to use power. However, the influence slider of constraints uses
linear interpolation. Thus, there is no way to correctly split scale
via constraints without adding this feature.
In addition, this allows inverting scale by using negative powers,
fulfilling the function of Copy Rotation's Invert checkboxes.

Add a new option that makes the Spline IK solver apply volume
preservation on top of the original scaling, considering the
pre-IK scale of the bone as the goal volume to be preserved.
This basically works similar to the Stretch To constraint, and
allows easily rigging a stretchy chain that uniformly follows
its parent's scaling.
Since the Stretch To behavior is more familiar, the new option
is on by default for newly created Spline IK constraints.

After a lot of thinking about this, I decided that all operation modes
that I've tried over the past couple of years, including the original
2.79 one, have their uses after all. Thus the only reasonable solution
is to add yet another option.
The modes are:
- Strict: The current 2.80 mode, which overrides the original scaling
of the non-free axes to strictly preserve the volume. This is the most
obvious way one would expect a 'Maintain Volume' constraint to work.
- Uniform: The original 2.79 mode, which assumes that all axes have been
scaled the same as the free one when computing the volume. This seems
strange, but the net effect is that when simply scaling the object
uniformly with S, the volume is preserved; however, scaling the non-
free axes individually allows deviating from the locked volume.
This was obviously intended as a more or less convenient UI tool.
- Single Axis: My own variant of the intent of the Uniform scale, which
does volume-preserving if the object is scaled just on the Free axis,
while passing the non-free axis scaling through. I.e. instead of
uniform S scaling, the user has to scale the object just on its
primary axis to achieve constant volume. This can allow reducing the
number of animation curves when only constant volume scaling is needed,
or be an easier to control tool inside a complex rig.

* The cache file datablock is now evaluated as part of the dependency graph,
creating/freeing the Alembic file handle matching the current frame.
Modifiers and constraints depend on this evaluation.
* Cache file handles and readers now only exist on COW datablocks, never the
original ones.
* Object data paths are flushed back to the original for the user interface.
* The cache file keeps a list of all readers associated with its handle, and
automatically frees them when the handle is freed. This kind of sharing of
data across datablocks is weak but we have no better mechanism for it.

Previously Spline IK provided only two choices: either scale the
length of the bone chain to fit the length of the curve, or don't
scale the bone in the Y dimension at all (ignoring effects of
actually fitting to the curve due to curvature and curve object
scale).
This patch adds a new option to use the pre-IK Y scale of the
bones to adjust their length when fitted to the curve, allowing
individual posing control over the length of the segments.

Previously B-Bone deformation mapped every vertex to just one
B-Bone segment. This results in abrupt transformation differences
between the sides of each threshold plane, reducing the quality
of B-Bone deformation and making the use of shape keys impractical.
This commit replaces this approach with a linear blend between
the two closest segment transformations, effectively representing
the B-Bone as two weight-blended plain bones for each vertex.
In order to distribute the interpolation more evenly along the
bone, segment matrices for deformation are now computed at points
between the segments and at the ends of the B-Bone. The computation
also uses the true tangents of the Bezier curve for the orientation.
The nodes at the end of the bone require some special handling to
deal with zero-length Bezier handles caused by a zero ease value.
The Copy Transforms constraint now also smoothly interpolates
rotation and scaling along the bone shape when enabled.
The initial version of the patch was submitted by @Sam200.

Resolves a common cause of confusion.

While \file doesn't need an argument, it can't have another doxy
command after it.

Wasn't obvious it's related to orientation,
also term manipulator is no longer in use.

Move \ingroup onto same line to be more compact and
make it clear the file is in the group.

Was confusing eg: G_AUTOPACK belonged to G.fileflags, G_PICKSEL to G.f.

This commit makes it so curve path parent solving accepts an explicit
arguments for both time and curve speed flag, making it so we don't
have to mock around with scene's frame.
One unfortunate issue still is that if the instancing object is used
for something else, we might be running into a threading conflict.
Possible solution would be to create a temp copy of an object, but
then it will be an issue of preventing drivers from modifying other
datablocks.
At least the original issue is fixed now, and things behave same as
in older Blender version. Additionally, the global variable which
was defining curve speed flag behavior is gone now!

There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.

Computing the shape of a B-Bone is a quite expensive operation, and
there are multiple constraints that can access this information in
a variety of useful ways. This means computing the shape once per
bone and saving it is good for performance.
Since the shape may depend on the position of up to two other bones,
often in a "cyclic" manner, this computation has to be a separate
node with its own dependencies.

The constraint is supposed to automatically initialize the rest
length when it is first evaluated, so now that evaluation is done
on a separate copy it also has to copy the value to the master
instance - or newly created constraints will be broken.
Since this is supposed to happen once at constraint creation,
implementing as a search for now instead of adding new fields.
