When picking a small tile size when doing a CLI render will
yield many status updates being printed to the console
causing a slowdown in the render process. 2.79 with the
same amount of tiles did not have this slowdown.
The reason for this turned out to be a debugging aid added
in rBd2757d149bf2 which disabled buffering for stdout which
on windows caused every single character being printed to the
console to try to obtain a mutex, and worse the thread being
put to sleep when this mutex was unavailable leading to poor
performance.
This patch changes the behaviour by only disabling the
buffering in debug builds.
CLI render of the default cube with 16x16 tiles at 1080p
2.83 : 37.57s
now : 17.03s
note: this only affected CLI renders, renders from the UI
do not report this kind of information and had no such
slowdown.

The file subversion is no longer used in the Python API or user interface,
and is now internal to Blender.
User interface, Python API and file I/O metadata now use more consistent
formatting for version numbers. Official releases use "2.83.0", "2.83.1",
and releases under development use "2.90.0 Alpha", "2.90.0 Beta".
Some Python add-ons may need to lower the Blender version in bl_info to
(2, 83, 0) or (2, 90, 0) if they used a subversion number higher than 0.
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Reference/Release_Notes/2.83/Python_API#Compatibility
This change is in preparation of LTS releases, and also brings us more
in line with semantic versioning.
Fixes T76058.

Previously this would be enabled when threads were used, but threads are now
basically always in use so there is no point. Further, this is only needed for
guarded allocation with --debug-memory which is not performance critical.

Static tbb has always been frowned upon [1] sofar it has worked for us but
given our reliance on tbb is about to increase (D7475), I'd like to move the library
to more supported configuration. Which means moving it to be a dynamic library

This diff add supports for crash logs on windows for
release builds. This can be toggled on/off with the
`WITH_WINDOWS_PDB` cmake option. by default it is on.
Things to take into consideration:
Release builds are hightly optimized and the resulting
backtraces can be wrong/misleading, take the backtrace
as a general area where the problem resides rather than
an exact location.
By default we ship a minimized symbol file that can only
resolve the function names. This was chosen to strike
a balance between growth in size of the download vs
functionality gained. If more detailed information is
required such as source file + line number information
a full pdb can be shipped by setting `WITH_WINDOWS_STRIPPED_PDB`
to off.

The Release in the title of this diff refers to the

Initially this will only be enabled for nightly build
bot versions of blender, official releases as of now
will not ship with symbols.

This patch enables TBB as the default task scheduler. TBB stands for Threading Building Blocks and is developed by Intel. The library contains several threading patters. This patch maps blenders BLI_task_* function to their counterpart. After this patch we can add more patterns. A promising one is TBB:graph that can be used for depsgraph, draw manager and compositor.
Performance changes depends on the actual hardware. It was tested on different hardwares from laptops to workstations and we didn't detected any downgrade of the performance.

Following up to b555b8d.
Building Blender with hidden symbols but using libraries with visible symbols
was giving linker warnings, specifically for USD. So revert that for now, as
it was not needed for the bugfix.
Hide USD symbols (some of which are not in the USD namespace) to avoid potential
conflicts. May potentially help with AMD OpenCL issues in T74262.

This means symbols from Blender itself and most external libraries. We can't
just hide all because that breaks some libraries. The better solution would
be to rebuild all library dependencies with hidden visibility.

Hair and PointCloud object types are hidden behind a WITH_NEW_OBJECT_TYPES

NOTE: While most of the milestone 1 goals are there, a few smaller features and
improvements are still to be done.
Big picture of this milestone: Initial, OpenXR-based virtual reality support
for users and foundation for advanced use cases.
Maniphest Task: https://developer.blender.org/T71347
The tasks contains more information about this milestone.
To be clear: This is not a feature rich VR implementation, it's focused on the
initial scene inspection use case. We intentionally focused on that, further
features like controller support are part of the next milestone.
- How to use?
Instructions on how to use this are here:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/How_to_Test
These will be updated and moved to a more official place (likely the manual) soon.
Currently Windows Mixed Reality and Oculus devices are usable. Valve/HTC
headsets don't support the OpenXR standard yet and hence, do not work with this
implementation.
---------------
This is the C-side implementation of the features added for initial VR
support as per milestone 1. A "VR Scene Inspection" Add-on will be
committed separately, to expose the VR functionality in the UI. It also
adds some further features for milestone 1, namely a landmarking system
(stored view locations in the VR space)
Main additions/features:
* Support for rendering viewports to an HMD, with good performance.
* Option to sync the VR view perspective with a fully interactive,
regular 3D View (VR-Mirror).
* Option to disable positional tracking. Keeps the current position (calculated
based on the VR eye center pose) when enabled while a VR session is running.
* Some regular viewport settings for the VR view
* RNA/Python-API to query and set VR session state information.
* WM-XR: Layer tying Ghost-XR to the Blender specific APIs/data
* wmSurface API: drawable, non-window container (manages Ghost-OpenGL and GPU
context)
* DNA/RNA for management of VR session settings
* `--debug-xr` and `--debug-xr-time` commandline options
* Utility batch & config file for using the Oculus runtime on Windows.
* Most VR data is runtime only. The exception is user settings which are saved
to files (`XrSessionSettings`).
* VR support can be disabled through the `WITH_XR_OPENXR` compiler flag.

https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Interface/XR.

A few thank you's:
* A huge shoutout to Ray Molenkamp for his help during the project - it would
have not been that successful without him!
* Sebastian Koenig and Simeon Conzendorf for testing and feedback!
* The reviewers, especially Brecht Van Lommel!
* Dalai Felinto for pushing and managing me to get this done ;)
* The OpenXR working group for providing an open standard. I think we're the
first bigger application to adopt OpenXR. Congratulations to them and
ourselves :)

Use 'BLI_join_dirfile' for joining paths that don't need to expand '//'.

Introduce new IDTypeInfo structure.
Each ID type will have its own, with some minimal basic common info,
and ID management callbacks.
This patch only does it for Object type, for demo/testing purpose.
Moving all existing IDs is a goal of next "cleanup Friday".
Note that BKE_idcode features should then be merged back into BKE_idtype -
but this will have to be done later, once all ID types have been properly
converted to the new system.
Another later TODO might be to try and add callbacks for file read/write,
and lib_query ID usages looper.
This is part of T73719.
Thanks to @brecht for initial idea, and reviewing the patch.

Was caused by recent refactor of dependencies in 517870a4a11f.
While there is no fully reliable solution to this issue other than
making TBB a dynamic library dependency (as documentation tells us
to do), there seems to be simple workaround which doesn't require
deeper changed in build process and packaging.
Tested on Brecht's computer who managed to reproduce the issue on
Linux (T72015#857423).
