This package allows Python scripts to handle compressed blend files (see
rB2ea66af742bc). This is for example needed by Blender Asset Tracer to
send files to a Flamenco render farm.
This change includes a new `WITH_PYTHON_INSTALL_ZSTANDARD` build-time
option, to control whether to actually install the package. For this the
already-existing approach for Requests was copied.

Make building the thumbnail extraction executable optional,
disable on macOS as this was not linking, further, macOS doesn't use
this for thumbnail extraction so it could be left disabled.
Thumbnail extraction now shares code between Linux/Windows,
allowing thumbnails from Zstd compressed blend files to be extracted.
The main logic is placed in blendthumb_extract.cc and is built as static
library. For windows there is DLL which is registered during blender
install and which then reads and generates thumbnails.
For other platforms there is blender-thumbnailer executable file which
takes blend file as an input and generates PNG file. As a result
Python script blender-thumbnailer.py is no longer needed.
The thumbnail extractor shares the same code-path as Blenders file
reading, so there is no need to duplicate any file reading logic.
This means reading compressed blend files is supported (broken since
the recent move Zstd compression - D5799).
This resolves T63736.

Change the dylib folder relative to `Blender` executable to be
the same as before rB652fbc200500497a67bd11d18b786587ba34e3d9 and same
as bpy.so : `@loader_path/../Resources/${BLENDER_VERSION}/lib`
For Blender.app: dropping libomp.dylib next to Blender executable is
enough for it getting picked up since `@executable_path` is an rpath.
For non-distributed binaries datatoc, makesdna, tests etc, code for
copying libomp.dylib to build folder is removed and replaced by
CMake's rpath option for *build* tree.
For bpy.so, the post build rpath change has also been replaced by CMake
rpath option for *install* tree.
Since -id has been changed in D11748, remove the
`install_name_tool -change ...` command.
Any dylib can just be dropped at `MAC_BLENDER_TARGET_DYLIBS_DIR`
hereafter. Appending dylib path to `CMAKE_BUILD_RPATH` will be needed
for datatoc etc if linked against one (instead of copying the
dylibs around).

TBBmalloc_proxy already takes care of any allocations
being done from MSVC compiled code, some of the dependencies
like GMP cannot be build with MSVC and we have to use
mingw to build them. mingw however links against the older
msvcrt.dll for its allocation needs, which TBBMallocProxy
does not hook.
GMP has an option to supply your own allocation functions
so we can still manually redirect them to TBBMalloc.

rB847579b42250 updated the TBB build script
which had some unintended consequences for
windows as the directory layout slightly
changed.
This change adjusts the builder to the new
structure, there are no version/functional
changes.
blender-laucher.c was not an ideal name for this file
since it's not directly clear it is windows only.
This change renames it to blender_launcher_win32.c
to be more in line with other win32 specific files
we have.
This patch fixes a long-standing complaint from users:
the console window shortly flashing when they start
blender.
This is done by adding a new executable called
blender-launcher.exe which starts blender.exe while
hiding the console.
Any command line parameters given to blender-launcher
will be passed on to blender.exe so it'll be a drop
in replacement.
Starting blender.exe on its own will still function as
a proper console app so no changes required here for
users that use blender for batch processing.
Notable changes:
Registering blender (-R switch) will now register
blender-launcher as the preferred executable.
This patch updates the installer and updates the
shortcuts to start blender-launcher.exe rather
than blender.exe

Old code's `install` step did not guarantee that all script files
will be copied from source folder to build folder _before_ copying from
build folder to site-packages. That caused incomplete installation.
Fixed by copying scripts etc., only once. Also match the behavior on
Linux: install to site-packages only if `WITH_INSTALL_PORTABLE` is OFF.
Also fix install and launch issues with Xcode.
Changes made:
* Add OpenMP linker flags.
* Copy the libomp.dylib to `2.93/lib/libomp.dylib`.
* Change the `LC_LOAD_DYLIB` item such that
the lib is found at `bpy.so/../../Resources/2.93/lib/libomp.dylib`.

Using configue_file(..) would have avoided the breakage from
1daa3c3f0a, caused by buildinfo not properly escaping quotes.
Rely on CMake to escaping strings instead using configure_file().
After tests were bundled in a single executable and cycles and libmv
created their own tests, the warnings on macOS have gone over 800.
The reason is setting `*_LIBRARIES` to names of the libraries
and later using `link_directories` to link them properly.
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/link_directories.html
> Note This command is rarely necessary and should be avoided where
> there are other choices. Prefer to pass full absolute paths to
> libraries where possible, since this ensures the correct library
> will always be linked. The find_library() command provides the
> full path, which can generally be used directly in calls to
> target_link_libraries().
Warnings like the following popup for every target/executable,
for every library it links to.
```
ld: warning: directory not found for option
'-L/Users/me/blender-build/blender/../lib/darwin/jpeg/lib/Debug'
```
The patch completes a step towards removing `link_directories` as
mentioned in TODO at several places.
The patch uses absolute paths to link libraries and removes
all `*_LIBPATH`s except `PYTHON_LIBPATH` from
`platform_apple.cmake` file. (The corner case where it's used seems
like dead code. Python is no longer shipped with that file structure.)
Also, unused code for LLVM-3.4 has been removed.
Also, guards to avoid searching libraries in system directories have
been added.
`APPLE` platform now no longer needs `setup_libdirs`,
`cycles_link_directories`, and `link_directories`.
The number of warnings now is less than 100, most of them being
deprecation ones in dependencies.
This patch depended on {rBb746179d0add}, {rB2fdbe4d05011},

This is for design task T67744, Boolean Redesign.
It adds a choice of solver to the Boolean modifier and the
Intersect (Boolean) and Intersect (Knife) tools.
The 'Fast' choice is the current Bmesh boolean.
The new 'Exact' choice is a more advanced algorithm that supports
overlapping geometry and uses more robust calculations, but is
slower than the Fast choice.
The default with this commit is set to 'Exact'. We can decide before
the 2.91 release whether or not this is the right choice, but this
choice now will get us more testing and feedback on the new code.
MSBuild on windows currently spews a warning about
buildinfo.h_fake not being generated.
For build info we use a non existing file to trigger a
custom_command on every build, which has worked well for
years now, however in recent versions of MSBuild it has
started issuing warnings about files that should be
generated but are not.
CMake is actually aware of this being a problem and states
in the documentation that "If the output of the custom command
is not actually created as a file on disk it should be marked
with the SYMBOLIC source file property."
This change fixes the build warning by properly marking the
buildinfo.h_fake as symbolic resolving the warning.

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

By default we ship a minimized symbol file that can only

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.
