This is an optimization / cleanup commit.
The use of a global ubo remove lots of uniform lookups and only transfert data when needed.
Lots of renaming for more consistent codestyle.

Tests on my system with ~1200 objects with 128 shadow casting lamps (current max) show a significant perf improvment (cache timing : 22ms -> 9ms)
With a baseline with no shadow casting light at 6ms this give a reduction of the overhead from 16ms to 3ms.
This remove pretty much all allocations during the cache phase. Leading to a big improvement for scene with a large number of lights & shadowcasters.
The lamps storage has been replace by a union to remove the need to free/allocate everyframe (also reducing memory fragmentation).
We replaced the linked list system used to track shadow casters by a huge bitflag.
We gather the lights shadows bounds as well as the shadow casters AABB during the cache populate phase and put them in big arrays cache friendly.
Then in the cache finish phase, it's easier to iterate over the lamps shadow SphereBounds and test for intersection.
We use a double buffer system for the shadow casters arrays to detect deleted shadow casters.
Unfortunatly, it seems that deleting an object trigger an update for all other objects (thus tagging most shadow casting lamps to update), defeating the purpose of this tracking.
This needs further investigation.

This augment the existing irradiance grid with a new visibility precomputation.
We store a small shadowmap for each grid sample so that light does not leak through walls and such.
The visibility parameter are similar to the one used by the Variance Shadow Map for point lights.
Technical details:
We store the visibility in the same texture (array) as the irradiance itself (in order to reduce the number of sampler).
But the irradiance and the visibility are not the same data so we must encode them in order to use the same texture format.
We use RGBA8 normalized texture and encode irradiance as RGBE (shared exponent).
Using RGBE encoding instead of R11_G11_B10 may lead to some lighting changes, but quality seems to be nearly the same in my test cases.
Using full RGBA16/32F maybe a future option but that will require much more memory and reduce the perf significantly.
Visibility moments (VSM) are encoded as 16bits fixed point precision using a special range. This seems to retain enough precision for the needs.
Also interpolation does not seems to be big problem (even though it's incorrect).

Similar to previous commit in Eevee.

For functions which will allocate requested data if it does not exist yet
"_ensure" is to be used instead of "_get". "_get" functions should return
NULL in cases when requested data does not exist yet.

This replaces dedicated flag which wasn't clean who sets it and who clears it,
and which was also trying to re-implement existing functionality in a way.
Flushing is not currently very efficient but there are ways to speed this up
a lot, but needs more investigation.

The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

Also move descriptions into doxy header

- Replace poisson by concentric samples: Less variance. They are sorted by radius then by angle.
- Separate filtering into 2 blur. First blur is 3x3 box blur. Second is user dependant.
- Group fetches by group of 4.
|
|
- Use only one 2d texture array to store all shadowmaps.
- Allow to change shadow maps resolution.
- Do not output radial distance when rendering shadowmaps. This will allow fast rendering of shadowmaps when we will drop the use of geometry shaders.

Technically this enables the use of MinmaxZ pyramid inside the probe captures.
Also Disable AO for cubemap probes because it shows big discontinuities at cubeface limits.
|
|
Still pretty barebone: No roughness support, No normal distortion support.

Early implementation. Slow and still has quality
3 ways of storing irradiance:
- Spherical Harmonics: Have problem with directionnal lighting.
- HL2 diffuse cube: Very low resolution but smooth transitions.
- Diffuse cube: High storage requirement.
Also include some name change.

Probe is a real general term, the new name is used often in docs online.
