Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
Folders removed entirely:
* //extern/recastnavigation
* //intern/decklink
* //intern/moto
* //source/blender/editors/space_logic
* //source/blenderplayer
* //source/gameengine
This includes DNA data and any reference to the BGE code in Blender itself.
We are bumping the subversion.
Pending tasks:
* Tile/clamp code in image editor draw code.
* Viewport drawing code (so much of this will go away because of BI removal
that we can wait until then to remove this.
The goal is to reduce wasted space and improve clarity in the 'N' panel of the VSE through layout changes.
The changes are intentional conservative to avoid making people re-learn anything.

Although this wasn't so obvious since it
only showed up for factory settings and in the preferences window.
Panel display order depends on registration order,
Sorry for the noise. On the bright side we no longer need to move
classes around to re-arrange panels.
While this isn't essential, accessing this setting required navigating to each scene and using render menu.
Expose in sequencer UI for more convenient access.
Image filter was not set, but only if invoked from toolbar (image strip needs to be selected to see the button).
Caused by rB7fa72b8970, Wasn't aware there's another button for this for image strips.
This is handy for cases when mask is created on top of the edit and
used for tasks like color grading and other enhancement.
That was the main purpose of the masks which was totally broken in
6786ef6. Now it's possible to have masks created as both a part of
input movie roto process (which then better be re-mapped to the strip
timing) and as a grading tool (which should be using scene timing
for the animation).
Thanks artists from the Nieve for screaming about such a broken case.
- Fixed a bug that the sound when changed in the properties panel was not updated.
- Added the option to make a sound mono while adding a sound strip.
- Added the option to make a sound mono in the sequencer properties panel.

This snippet creates a white balance modifier for the video sequence editor. It is useful for everyone who likes to set a new white point in the video source (easily via the eyedropper). Just select a point in the source file where you know that it should be white. The algorithm will then shift the colors towards your new white point.
See attached the image for a quick demo.

Changing path of a sound strip (select strip->C->'Path/Files') opened a file browser without filter for sound files, so sound files weren't visible.
Also, for movie/image files, now only movie **or** image files are visible in the file browser by default (instead of both).
Reported by @venomgfx, thanks!
This makes it possible to use scenes as a kind of
multi-user meta-strip (with their own time).
Currently this supports rendering & drawing nested strips,
but no convenient way to tab-enter into a scene strip.
