Silences the following strict flags from external libraries:
- -Wclass-memaccess
- -Wswitch
- -Wtype-limits
- -Wint-in-bool-context
Needed to tweak macro a bit, since the old logic was wrong:
we can not use CXX flags for C compiler, need way more strict
separation between what goes where.
This will currently only work for the RelWithDebInfo configuration since asan
does not support the debug crt. for source line information in the reports,
you need a copy of llvm-symbolizer in the blender folder or set the
ASAN_SYMBOLIZER_PATH environment variable to point to it. Currently (as of
6.0.0) llvm-symbolizer does not ship with the binary clang/llvm distribution.

- Use a single undo history for all operations.
- UndoType's are registered and poll the context to check if they
should be used when performing an undo push.
- Mode switching is used to ensure the state is correct before
undo data is restored.
- Some undo types accumulate changes (image & text editing)
others store the state multiple times (with de-duplication).
This is supported by checking UndoStack.mode `ACCUMULATE` / `STORE`.
- Each undo step stores ID datablocks they use with utilities to help
manage restoring correct ID's.
Needed since global undo is now mixed with other modes undo.
- Currently performs each undo step when going up/down history
Previously this wasn't done, making history fail in some cases.
This can be optimized to skip some combinations of undo steps.
grease-pencil is an exception which has not been updated
since it integrates undo into the draw-session.
See D3113
- See `--log` help message for usage.
- Supports enabling categories.
- Color severity.
- Optionally logs to a file.
- Currently use to replace printf calls in wm module.

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.

cmake's link_directories will supply forward slashes for the search paths, the msvc linker has some issues with that, while it will search for the needed libs just fine, the incremental linker gets fed forward slashes for some libs, while the previous binary has backward slashes in it's metadata, the linker assumes obj files got added and performs a full link instead of an incremental link. This change brings down the link time with newer msvc versions for a trivial edit down from a few minutes to a few seconds.
It has been deprecated since at least macOS 10.9 and fully removed in 10.12.
I am unsure if we should remove it only in 2.8. But you cannot build blender with it supported when using a modern xcode version anyway so I would tend towards just removing it also for 2.79 if that ever happens.

The Issue
=======
For a long time now MinGW has been unsupported and unmaintained and at this point,
it looks like something that we should just leave behind and move on.
Why Remove
==========
One of the big motivations for MinGW back in the day is that it was free compared to MSVC which was licensed based.
However, now that this is no longer true we have basically stopped updating the need CMake files.
Along with the CMake files, there are several patches to the extern libs needed to make this work. For example, see:
https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/master/extern/carve/patches/mingw_w64.patch
If we wanted to keep MinGW then we would need to make more custom patches to the external libs and
this is not something our platform maintainers are willing to do.
For example, here is the patches needed to build python: https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-python3

It is disabled by default, so should not affect existing configurations.
Main benefits of this goes as:
- Linux distros can use that to avoid libraries duplication and link
blender package against gflags package from the system.
- It it easier to test whether Blender works with updated version of
Gflags prior to re-bundling the library.
Currently the tests don't run on windows for the following reasons
1) render_graph_finalize has an linking issue due missing a bunch of libraries (not sure why this is not an issue for linux)
2) This one is more interesting, in test/python/cmakelists.txt ${TEST_BLENDER_EXE_BARE} and ${TEST_BLENDER_EXE} are flat out wrong, but for some reason this doesn't matter for most tests, cause ctest will actually go out and look for the executable and fix the path for you *BUT* only for the command, if you use them in any of the parameters it'll happily pass on the wrong path.
3) on linux you can just run a .py file, windows is not as awesome and needs to be told to run it with pyton.
4) had to use the NAME/COMMAND long form of add_test otherwise $<TARGET_FILE:blender> doesn't get expanded, why? beats me.
5) missing idiff.exe for msvc2015/x64 in the libs folder.
This patch addresses 1-4 , but given I have no working Linux build environment, I'm unsure if it'll break anything there

Seems CMake will rearrange and copy libraries which are passed to the linker
when some of the libraries is listed twice (for example, -lz from png libraries
and -l for blender itself). This was causing libopenimageio to be added somewhere
at the end of linking flags without -ldl followed after which was causing linking
issues.
The option is controlled with the WITH_WINDOWS_CODESIGN option and needs:
- Signtool must be found on the system, the standard windows sdk folders will be searched for it.
- The path to the pfx file (WINDOWS_CODESIGN_PFX)
- The password for the pfx , this can either be set by the WINDOWS_CODESIGN_PFX_PASSWORD variable but given that ends up in CMakeCache.txt (which might be undesirable) there is a backup option of setting the PFXPASSWORD environment variable on the system.

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

Applying cflags globally can be problematic especially with extern, intern libs.
Now flags from target named will be used when defined,
allowing for developers to define flags for modules they maintain.
Convention is CMAKE_CFLAGS_${UPPERCASE_TARGET_NAME}, (CXXFLAGS for C++).
eg: CMAKE_CFLAGS_BF_BLENDER, CMAKE_CFLAGS_MAKESDNA, CMAKE_CXXFLAGS_CYCLES_KERNEL
On Linux run `make help` for full list of names, MSVC shows these in the solution.
You can capture and stream video in the BGE using the DeckLink video
cards from Black Magic Design. You need a card and Desktop Video software
version 10.4 or above to use these features in the BGE.
Many thanks to Nuno Estanquiero who tested the patch extensively
on a variety of Decklink products, it wouldn't have been possible without
his help.
You can find a brief summary of the decklink features here: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Source/GameEngine/Decklink
The full API details and samples are in the Python API documentation.
bge.texture.VideoDeckLink(format, capture=0):
Use this object to capture a video stream. the format argument describes
the video and pixel formats and the capture argument the card number.
This object can be used as a source for bge.texture.Texture so that the frame
is sent to the GPU, or by itself using the new refresh method to get the video
frame in a buffer.
The frames are usually not in RGB but in YUV format (8bit or 10bit); they
require a shader to extract the RGB components in the GPU. Details and sample
shaders in the documentation.
3D video capture is supported: the frames are double height with left and right
eyes in top-bottom order. The 'eye' uniform (see setUniformEyef) can be used to
sample the 3D frame when the BGE is also in stereo mode. This allows to composite
a 3D video stream with a 3D scene and render it in stereo.
In Windows, and if you have a nVidia Quadro GPU, you can benefit of an additional
performance boost by using 'GPUDirect': a method to send a video frame to the GPU
without going through the OGL driver. The 'pinned memory' OGL extension is also
supported (only on high-end AMD GPU) with the same effect.
bge.texture.DeckLink(cardIdx=0, format=""):
Use this object to send video frame to a DeckLink card. Only the immediate mode
is supported, the scheduled mode is not implemented.
This object is similar to bge.texture.Texture: you need to attach a image source
and call refresh() to compute and send the frame to the card.
This object is best suited for video keying: a video stream (not captured) flows
through the card and the frame you send to the card are displayed above it (the
card does the compositing automatically based on the alpha channel).
At the time of this commit, 3D video keying is supported in the BGE but not in the
DeckLink card due to a color space issue.
Was using O(n^2) lookup on ID's with undo.
This caused undo to hang with 1000's of data-blocks
(especially with heavy scenes & outliner-space, which doesn't even need to be visible to cause a slow-down).
Internally this uses a ghash per id-type, which is lazy-initialized.
Each key uses the name and library since there may be name collisions between libraries.
Developer Notes:
- Adds small `BKE_main_idmap_*` API.
- Needed to change linking order for this to build.
Since version 6 G++ switched to C++11 by default, which breaks some logic
around WITH_CXX11 checks in out CMake files, leading to compilation errors.
This is easy to solve by explicitly enabling older C++ standard when C++11
was not explicitly enabled by CMake options.
However, G++-6 will also use new ABI by default even if older standard was
specified in the compiler options. This is being addressed by a special
define flag.
This tricks made it possible to use new G++-6 without need to recompile
any of pre-compiled libraries.
However, this might break compilation with existing system libraries, which
might already be using new ABI. We can't address this automatically, so
now we simply default WITH_C11 and WITH_CXX11 options to whatever defaults
of the current compiler are. This means, for G++-6 we'll set WITH_CXX11 to
truth. This should make linking with system libraries working just fine,
but to make pre-compiled libraries we still might need to disable CXX11.
This should work fine work for a new environments with G++-6 and install_deps
script run from scratch there, because C++ standard will be the same for
both Blender dependencies and Blender itself.
This mainly touches extern libraries and few debug-only places in intern.
Some summary:
- External libraries are not strict at all about missing declarations,
so we can rather safely remove such warning together with other strict
flags.
- Bullet has some static functions which are not used.
Those were commented out.
- Carve now has some unused debug-only functions commented out as well.
While we're on the way of getting rid of Carve, it makes sense to make
things a bit cleaner for the time being.
- In LZMA we have some parts disabled which gives some set but unused
variables which is rather correct.
- Elbeem had quite some variables set and never used because their usage
is inside of debug-only code which is commented out.
Note about patching upstream libraries: surely one might say that we
have to make local patchset against this, but own experience says it
only gives extra work trying to merge such tweaks to a new upstream
version and usually it's just faster to re-apply such fixes again after
bundling new upstream library.
This will be used for calculating bezier curves from freehand drawing,
may be used for other areas too.
