this is actually adding option to add buggy behavior, but.. NPR often
expects buggy behaviors, and its one of the main targets for normal editing.
So think it's reasonable to add that option (disabled by default of
course).
Note that am not really happy with UI, but:
* Not sure where to put it, it's kind of own self-contained area option.
* Don't to make it too much visible, using this should be the exception!
This commit adds number formatting (thousands separator) to the baking panel. It also adds a new function to format memory sizes (KB/GB/etc) and applies it to the baking panel and scene stats. The new function is unit tested.

The work is mainly from Lukas Toenne, with some modifications from myself.
Includes following obvious changes:
- Particle system selection is now name-based, with lookup menu.
- Lots of new options to control varieties.
Changes comparing to the Gooseberry branch:
- Default values and versioning code ensures same behavior as the
old modifier.
- Custom data layers are coming from vertex color, the modifier
does not create arbitrary layers now. The hope is to keep data
more manageable, and maybe make it easier to select in the shader
later on.
This means, values are quantized to 256 values, but it should be
enough to get varieties in practice.

We've got quite comprehensive BMesh based implementation, which is way easier
for maintenance than abandoned Carve library.
After all the time BMesh implementation was working on the same level of
limitations about manifold meshes and touching edges than Carve. Is better
to focus on maintaining one boolean implementation now.

The custom poll function for surfacedeform_bind seems to have caused
issues when calling it from Python. Fixed by using the generic modifier
poll function, and setting the button to be active or not in the
Python UI code instead. (there might be a better way, but for now this
works fine)
compiled.
This adds a short message to the smoke, remesh and boolean modifiers' UI
when trying to use them when their compilation was turned off. This was
already implemented for the fluid and ocean simulation modifiers.
This also makes the 'quick fluid' and 'quick smoke' operator abort and
report when trying to use them when unavailable.
Users have been getting a bit confused by the way things are worded/arranged in
the UI. This patch makes a few changes to the UI to make it more clear how to
use subdivision:
- make Subdivide UVs option inactive when adaptive subdivision is enabled as UV
subdivision is currently unsupported
- add "px" to dicing rates in the Geometry Panel
- display the final dicing rate in the modifier
- reworded "Dicing Rate" in the modifier to "Dicing Scale" to make more clear
that this is a multiplier for the scene dicing rate and added a note the the
tooltip pointing the user to that setting in the Geometry Panel

All in all, this patch adds an Alembic importer, an Alembic exporter,
and a new CacheFile data block which, for now, wraps around an Alembic
archive. This data block is made available through a new modifier ("Mesh
Sequence Cache") as well as a new constraint ("Transform Cache") to
somewhat properly support respectively geometric and transformation data
streaming from alembic caches.
A more in-depth documentation is to be found on the wiki, as well as a
guide to compile alembic: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/

Many thanks to everyone involved in this little project, and huge shout
out to "cgstrive" for the thorough testings with Maya, 3ds Max, Houdini
and Realflow as well as @fjuhec, @jensverwiebe and @jasperge for the
custom builds and compile fixes.

This patch improves UI of a recently added solver preference in boolean modifier:
{F331776}
Issue with the current UI is that it shows user unnecessary information and breaks established grid layout.

Subdivision options can now be found in the subsurf modifier. The modifier must
be the last in the stack or the options will be unavailable. Catmull-Clark
subdivision is still unavailable and will fallback to linear subdivision instead

The 'precision' and 'dynamic' settings for binding are now always visible.
The settings that can not be edited after binding are disabled (not inactive).
I find it useful to see with what settings a mesh was bound, in case
the file is not mine or if I simply lost track of it.
This uses a bmesh-intersection, BLI_kdtree and watertight intersections to perform boolean operations.
For now keep both BMesh and Carve booleans usable at once for testing & bug reports,
however we plan to phase out Carve by next release.
(if they're on different properties).
This patch basically gets rid of (ui-related) hack where we was adding specific
'fake' enums for datatypes needing additional options.
That was done because of broken UI code - to summarize, 'align' code did not support
correctly layout mixing vertical and horizontal sub-layouts, in particular if
it was 'column-major'.
A complete rewrite of this align code has been done, so now we can use a more
sane UI code.
The idea of this commit is to make it so we can enable OpenSubdiv by default
for the release builds but keep it limited to the viewport only for a specific
meshes. This is a temporary solution for until all the needed features are
supported on the OpenSubdiv side.
Flag itself is done as a dedicated field in modifier DNA so we can easily
remove it in the future without ending up with some temporary flag hanging
around forever.
Current behavior of bevel is to 'loop slide' along unbeveled edges
when possible, but this produces uneven bevel widths sometimes,
so this option lets user choose between having the loop slide effect
or having more even bevel widths. Trying it out with default being
'no loop slide', so different from current behavior. May reverse this
choice later, depending on user reactions.
Add slider to adjust the influence of weights relative to geometry distortion.
This allows subtle influences to be applied - without drastic changes in behavior.
There are several ways to end up with an object with skin modifier, but no
skin data on the geometry. So we need an operator to add it by hands.
Also tweaked a bit UI of this modifier.
Nothing much to say here, basic tool to make normals point toward a target,
or to make them point 'outward' as if object was a spheroid (useful for game bushes etc.).
Also, forgot a big thank you to Campbell for the extensive review work he has done on this project!
- Add falloff types & curves (matching warp-modifier)
- Add uniform scale option,
important when adding hooks to non-uniform scaled objects,
especially for use with lattice objects which can't avoid uneven scaling.
This uses relative transformation set when the hook is assigned,
when measuring the distances.
Not much to add, modifier uses same code as operator basically, only key difference
is that modifier will never create data layers itself, you have to use dedicated operator
for that.
