This separates cloth stiffness and damping forces into tension,
compression, and shearing components, allowing more control over the
cloth behaviour.
This also adds a bending model selector (although the new bending model
itself is not implemented in this commit). This is because some of the
features implemented here only make sense within the new bending model,
while the old model is kept for compatibility.
This commit makes non-breaking changes, and thus maintains full
compatibility with existing simulations.

OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.

This setting can also be animated, to create a "time warp" effect.

This feature has been totally broken for a long time. It was added
originally because negative frames were not supported.
Giving simulations (cloth and others) time to settle before animation
starts needs to be solved in a much better and more generic way.

These were used as UI buttons during development. If such parameters are
needed again later they should instead be added in the (now global)

This allows setting a target density which the fluid simulation will
take into account as an additional term in the pressure Poisson
equation. Based on two papers
"Detail Preserving Continuum Simulation of Straight Hair" (McAdams et al. 2009)
and
"Two-way Coupled SPH and Particle Level Set Fluid Simulation" (Losasso et al. 2008)
Currently the target pressure is specified directly, but it will be
a lot more convenient to define this in terms of a geometric value such
as "number of hairs per area" (combined with hair "thickness").

This is a bit more awkward for artists to use, but necessary for
a stable solution of the hair continuum calculation. The grid size is
defined by the user, the extent of the grid is then calculated based on
the hair geometry. A hard upper limit prevents bad memory allocation
in case too small values are entered.

This is an artifact of earlier attempts to implement velocity smoothing,

The bend damping factor was hardcoded to the same value as the stiffness.
Now it has its own factor in the settings and button in hair dynamics.

This is part of the original method from "Volumetric Methods for
Simulation and Rendering of Hair". The current filter is a simple box
filter. Other energy-preserving filters such as gaussian filtering
can be implemented later.
The filter size is currently given as a cell count. This is not ideal,
rather it should use a geometrical length value, but this is too
abstract for proper artistical use. Eventually defining the whole grid
in terms of spatial size might work better (possibly using an external
object).

This implements a penalty force as well as a repulsion force to avoid
further penetration, as suggested in
"Simulating Complex Hair with Robust Collision Handling"
(http://graphics.snu.ac.kr/publications/2005-choe-HairSim/Choe_2005_SCA.pdf)
Friction forces are still missing. More problematic is handling of
moving colliders, when face swap places with the hair vertex and a
collision is missed, putting the vertex inside the mesh volume. Larger
margins might help, but ultimately using Bullet collision detection is
probably more reliable and failsafe.

on itself.
This uses the same voxel structure as the hair smoothing algorithm.
A slightly different method was suggested in the original paper
(Volumetric Methods for Simulation and Rendering of Hair), but this is
based on directing hair based on a target density, which is another
way of implementing global goals. Our own approach is to define a
pressure threshold above which the hair is repelled in the density
gradient direction to simulate internal pressure from collisions.

Description:
--------------------------
Use loose edges marked as seams as sewing springs.
Usage:
-------------------------
All this patch does is set the rest length to 0 and the stiffness to 1 for springs for loose edges marked as seams so that during the cloth simulation they will be brought together.

Self collision vertex groups enable artists to exclude selected vertices from getting involved in self collisions. This speeds simulations and it also resolves some self collision issues.

(commit 27746 by Brecht from render25 branch)

|
* Effectors now work with hair dynamics.
* Hair dynamics has a new "Collider Friction" parameter that works similarly to internal friction except now all collision objects effect the hair velocity. Useful for quick'n'dirty interaction with objects as the calculations are really fast, but doesn't really take away the need for proper hair-object collisions.

* structural can be set to 0
* pre-roll now available through GUI and works like following:
a) Pre rolled frames are NOT cached
b) reset cache + cloth on pre roll setting change
|
|
* Unified scene wide gravity (currently in scene buttons)
instead of each simulation having it's own gravity.
* Weight parameters for all effectors and an effector group
setting.
* Every effector can use noise.
* Most effectors have "shapes" point, plane, surface, every point.
- "Point" is most like the old effectors and uses the
effector location as the effector point.
- "Plane" uses the closest point on effectors local xy-plane
as the effector point.
- "Surface" uses the closest point on an effector object's
surface as the effector point.
- "Every Point" uses every point in a mesh effector object
as an effector point.
- The falloff is calculated from this point, so for example
with "surface" shape and "use only negative z axis" it's
possible to apply force only "inside" the effector object.
* Spherical effector is now renamed as "force" as it's no longer
just spherical.
* New effector parameter "flow", which makes the effector act as
surrounding air velocity, so the resulting force is
proportional to the velocity difference of the point and "air
velocity". For example a wind field with flow=1.0 results in
proper non-accelerating wind.
* New effector fields "turbulence", which creates nice random
flow paths, and "drag", which slows the points down.
* Much improved vortex field.
* Effectors can now effect particle rotation as well as location.
* Use full, or only positive/negative z-axis to apply force
(note. the z-axis is the surface normal in the case of
effector shape "surface")
* New "force field" submenu in add menu, which adds an empty
with the chosen effector (curve object for corve guides).
* Other dynamics should be quite easy to add to the effector
system too if wanted.
* "Unified" doesn't mean that force fields give the exact same results for
particles, softbody & cloth, since their final effect depends on many external
factors, like for example the surface area of the effected faces.
Code changes
* Subversion bump for correct handling of global gravity.
* Separate ui py file for common dynamics stuff.
* Particle settings updating is flushed with it's id through
DAG_id_flush_update(..).
Known issues
* Curve guides don't yet have all ui buttons in place, but they
should work none the less.
* Hair dynamics don't yet respect force fields.
Other changes
* Particle emission defaults now to frames 1-200 with life of 50
frames to fill the whole default timeline.
* Many particles drawing related crashes fixed.
* Sometimes particles didn't update on first frame properly.
* Hair with object/group visualization didn't work properly.
* Memory leaks with PointCacheID lists (Genscher, remember to
free pidlists after use :).

- Hair dynamics have their own panel in particle settings with the settings from cloth panel that apply to hair.
- Basic internal friction force to quickly emulate self collisions and volume preservation. (Still very early code, but gives some idea of what's possible).
- Softbody simulation is no longer used for hair.
* Old files with sb dynamics should just load the hair without dynamics so new dynamics can be applied.
* Invasion of particles exceptions in sb code is finally over.
- Collisions with other objects are disabled for now and will be worked out in the future.
Other changes/fixes:
- Particle mode editing flag wasn't saved properly.
- Some old files with edited hair didn't load correctly.
- Disabled delete & specials menu in particle mode for non-hair editing.
- Fixed yet one more cloth & softbody pointcache update issue.
- Disconnect/connect hair now uses only the deformed mesh so it works correctly also for subsurfed emitters.
- Hair editing now updates correctly with a moving emitter.

Notes:
* blenderbuttons and ICON_SNAP_PEEL_OBJECT were not merged.

* DNA_cloth_types.h, patch by Roelf de Kock. The gravity[3] member
is not being parsed correct by makesdna.c and will give issues
even when trying to fix it. Worked around it for now in RNA by
wrapping it manually, but this should really be fixed in the DNA
genetics code, added a comment about it in DNA_cloth_types.h.
* Handle vertex groups and uv layers more consistent now. They are
all exposed as strings now. Reason is that indices don't really
say much, and a direct pointer is not always possible because for
example a uv layer in a material can be used for multiple objects
and so there is no single pointer. In python it is not too hard
to use either since the strings works as a key for lookups.
For the user interface we can later think of some method to
generate popup menus in a way that works for vertex groups,
uv layers, bones etc.
* This also fixes the XXX's in rna_modifier.c, I think that can be
marked done.

arround. The e.g. GUI-only variable 'mass' was reseted to 0. Problem: makesdna doesn't cry out on compile - I wonder why this differences could happen. Solution: Rearange cloth DNA, resort things, clear up and bug was gone - weird. Problem left: Every file having cloth enabled before this revision is incompatible with this version. If anyone know a better solution, please go ahead

=======================
Caching and Baking:
- The point cache is now cleared on DAG_object_flush_update(), and not cleared for time dependency graph updates.
- There is now a Bake button instead of Protect. Also cache start and end frames were added to softbody and particles.
- The cloth autoprotect feature was removed.
- The Ctrl+B menu now also bakes cloth and particles next to softbody and fluids. Additionally there are now frree bake and free cache menu entries.
- The point cache api has been changed. There is now a PTCacheID struct for each point cache type that can be filled and then used to call the point cache functions.
- PointCache struct was added to DNA and is automatically allocated for each physics type.
- Soft body now supports Bake Editing just like cloth.
- Tried to make the systems deal consistently with time ipo's and offsets. Still not sure it all works correct, but too complicated to solve completely now.
Library Linking:
- Added some more warnings to prevent editing settings on library linked objects.
- Linked objects now read from the cache located next to the original library file, and never write to it. This restores old behavior for softbodies. For local simulation the mesh and not the object should be linked.
- Dupligroups and proxies can't create local point caches at the moment, how to implement that I'm not sure. We probably need a proxy point cache for that to work (ugh).
Physics UI:
- Renamed deflection panel to collision for consistency and reorganized the buttons. Also removed some softbody collision buttons from the softbody panel that were duplicated in this panel for cloth.
- Tweaked field panel buttons to not jump around when changing options.
- Tabbing e.g. Soft Body Collision into the Soft Body panel, it now only shows Collision to make the panel names readable.
- I tried to make enabled/disabling physics more consistent, since all three system did things different. Now the two modifier buttons to enable the modifier for the viewport and rendering are also duplicated in the physics panels. Toggling the Soft Body and Cloth buttons now both remove their modifiers.
- Fixed modifier error drawing glitch.
Particles:
- Particles are now recalculated more often than before. Previously it did partial updates based on the changes, but that doesn't work well with DAG_object_flush_update() ..
- Fixed memory leak loading keyed particle system. Now keys are not written to file anymore but always created after loading.
- Make particle threads work with autothreads.
Continue Physics:
- The timeline play now has a Continue Physics option in the playback menu, which keeps the simulations going without writing them to the cache.
- This doesn't always work that well, some changes are not immediately updated, but this can be improved later. Still it's fun to get a feel for the physics.
Todo:
- Point cache can get out of sync with and undo and changing a file without saving it.
- Change the point cache file format to store a version (so old point cache files can be either converted or at least ignored), and to do correct endian conversion.
- Menu item and/or buttons for Ctrl+B.
- A system("rm ..") was changed to remove() since the former is very slow for clearing point caches. These system() calls were already giving trouble in a bug in the tracker, but really most use of this system("") should be changed and tested.
- The Soft Body Collision and Clot Collision panel titles don't mention there's point cache settings there too, doing that makes them unreadable with the default panel setup.. but may need to make the names longer anyway.
