The idea is to allow certain animation channels to be always visible in
animation editors. So, for example, one can pin Camera animation to the
editor so it is always possible to refine/tweak camera animation when
animating something else in the scene.
There is probably some more polishing required, and some current
limitations could be solved in the future but should be a good starting
point already.
Currently only works for object without recursing into deeper datablock
(so for example, it's not possible to pin object material animation).

Basically just moves cached kernels from ~/.config/blender/BLENDER_VERSION to
~/.cache/cycles/kernels. This has following benefits:
- Follows XDG specification more closely,
not as if it's totally crucial or measurable by users, but still nice.
- Prevents unexpected sizes of config folder, makes disk space used in more
predictable for users way.
- Allows to share kernels across multiple Blender versions,
which makes it easier debugging at the times close to release.
- "Copy Previous Settings" operator will no longer be copying possibly
gigabytes of cached kernels, which used to lead to really nast disk usage
and annoying delays of copying settings.
- In the future we can have some smart logic to clear old unused cached
kernels.
Currently only done for Linux and OSX. Windows still follows old "cache"
folder logic, but it's not really important for now because we don't
support kernel compilation on this platform yet.

Constant folding was removing all nodes connected to the displacement output
if they evaluated to a constant, causing there to be no valid graph for
displacement even when there was displacement to be applied, and sometimes
caused crashes.
Using ones complement for detecting if transform has been applied was confusing
and led to several bugs. With this proper checks are made.
Also added a few transforms where they were missing, mostly affecting baking
and displacement when `P` is used in the shader (previously `P` was in the
wrong space for these shaders)
Also removed `TIME_INVALID` as this may have resulted in incorrect
transforms in some cases.

Bump mapping was happening in world space while displacement happens in object
space, causing shading errors when displacement type was used with bump mapping.
To fix this the proper transforms are added to bump nodes. This is only done
for automatic bump mapping however, to avoid visual changes from other uses of
bump mapping. It would be nice to do this for all bump mapping to be consistent
but that will have to wait till we can break compatibility.

Now the factor works similar to other Blender areas to make the factor
more consistent for artists. The value 0% means equal to original
stroke, 100% equal to final stroke (50% means half way). Any value below
0% or greater than 100% create an overshoot of the stroke.
The existing code uses the input value count of the first channel
for all of them. If the first channel is the largest, it leads to
a crash-causing buffer overrun in memcpy below. Likely this was
left since the time when only one channel was supported.
As a crash fix, probably should go into 2.78
This commits changes two things:
* It adds more keysyms preferably taken from XLookupKeysym than XLookupString (namely, all numpad ones).
* It falls back to keysyms from XLookupKeysym in other cases, when XLookupString does not produce anything we know of.
Finding the correct balance here is far from easy, but think we are comming rather close to it now...
Root of the issue is that active render index became wrong. This is the actual
thing to be fixed, but as usual this is quite tricky to reproduce. Since such
bad situation might have happened more and fix isn't really difficult or
intruisive let's avoid crash for now.
Can be revisited once we figure out root of the issue.
Nice for 2.78 release.
Own fault in new ID management work, thought rebuild the DAG itself was
enough to actually update whole scene, but we actually need to tag datablocks
for update as well, when we change (or remove) one of their ID pointers...
OCD commit, but cleans the code a bit:
- the first `if 0` block was supposed to draw collision objects but is
vastly outdated as most of the SmokeCollisionSettings member variables
were removed a few years ago and collision objects are drawn like other
objects anyway. Also it was committed already commented out back in
2009.
- the second `if 0` block was doing pretty much the same thing as the
few lines above it.
Most of the time, Lamps in Cycles are just a constant emission closure, no texturing etc. Therefore, running a full shader evaluation is wasteful.
To avoid that, Cycles now detects these constant emission shaders and stores their value in the lamp data along with a flag in the shader.
Then, at runtime, if this flag is set, the lamp code just uses this value and only runs the full shader evaluation if it is neccessary.
In scenes with a lot of lamps and with "Sample all direct/indirect" enabled, this saves up to 20% of rendering time in my tests.

For proper indexing to work we need to use unaligned node with
identity transform instead of aligned nodes when doing refit.
To be backported to 2.78 release.
This is really hack-fix actually, not sure why `get_pointcache_keys_for_time()` seems to assume
it will always find key for given part index at least for current frame, and whether this assumption
is wrong or whether bug happens elsewhere...
Anyway, this is to be wiped out in 2.8, so no point loosing too much time on it, for now merely
returning unchanged (i.e. zero'ed) ParticleKeys in case index2 is invalid. Won't hurt anyway,
even if this did not crash in release builds, would be returning giberish values.
Weirdly enough, this version of XCode seems to have static_assert()
even when NOT using C++11. This is totally weird and counter intuitive
since static_assert() is supposed to be C++11 onlky feature.
Can XCode stop using future, please? :)
The two SVM nodes added with e7ea1ae78c caused a slowdown on AMD cards when rendering with OpenCL, whether displacement was used or not.
In the Barcelona Pavillon scene on a RX480, this would cause a 12% slowdown.
Therefore, this commit adds a additional flag for feature-adaptive compilation so that the new SVM nodes are only enabled when they are needed (Node tree connected to the Displacement output and Displacement type set to Both).
Also, the nodes were also added to shaders when the Displacement Type was set to Bump (the default), which was unneccessary and is fixed now.
Thanks to linda2 on IRC for reporting and testing and to maiself for help with the displacement shader code.
This fix might be relevant for 2.78, but it should be tested further before including it.
When drawing with Grease Pencil "continous drawing" for a long time
(i.e. basically, drawing a very large number of strokes), it could be
possible to cause lower-specced machines to run out of RAM and start
swapping. This was because there was no limit on the number of undo
states that the GP undo code was storing; since the undo states grow
exponentially on each stroke (i.e. each stroke results in another undo
state which contains all the existing strokes AND the newest stroke), this
could cause issues when taken to the extreme.
See commit's comments for details, but this boils down to: do not try to use
purely runtime cache data as a 'real' ID pointer in readcode, it's likely
doomed to fail in some cases, and is bad practice in any case!
Thix fix implies dupliweight's object will be invalid until first scene update
(i.e. first particles evaluation).
Two new modal operators to create a grease pencil interpolate drawing
for one frame or a complete sequence between two frames. For drawing
the temporary strokes in the viewport, two drawing handlers have been
added to manage 3D and 2D stuff.

The operator shortcuts are Ctrl+E and Ctrl+Shift+E. During the modal
operator, the interpolation can be adjusted using the mouse (moving
left/right) or the wheel mouse.
Could not reproduce it here, but since users having the issue claims it comes from
rB16cb9391634dcc50e, let's try to use again ugly `XLookupKeysym()` for those modifier keys too...
Cpack generates a standard filename with git information in it, which might not always be wanted for release builds, this patch adds an option to override that default filename.
