As an inherent property of matrix-based transformation math, non-
uniform scaling of a parent bone induces shear into the transform
matrix of any rotated child. Such matrices cannot be cleanly
decomposed into a combination of location/rotation/scale, which
causes issues for rigging and animation tools.
Blender bones have options to exclude rotation and/or scale from the
inherited transformation, but don't have any support for removing the
often undesired shear component. That goal requires replacing simple
parenting with a combination of multiple bones and constraints. The
same is true about the goal of inheriting some scale, but completely
avoiding shear.
This patch replaces the old Inherit Scale checkbox with a enum that
supports multiple options:
* Full: inherit all effects of scale, like with enabled Inherit Scale.
* Fix Shear: removes shear from the final inherited transformation.
The cleanup math is specifically designed to preserve the main
axis of the bone, its length and total volume, and minimally
affect roll on average. It however will not prevent reappearance
of shear due to local rotation of the child or its children.
* Average: inherit uniform scale that represents the parent volume.
This is the simplest foolproof solution that will inherit some
scale without ever causing shear.
* None: completely remove scale and shear.
* None (Legacy): old disabled Inherit Scale checkbox.
This mode does not handle parent shear in any way, so the child
is likely to end up having both scale and shear. It is retained
for backward compatibility.
Since many rigging-related addons access the use_inherit_scale
property from Python, it is retained as a backward compatibility
stub that provides the old functionality.
As a side effect of reworking the code, this also fixes a matrix
multiplication order bug in the Inherit Rotation code, which caused
the parent local scale to be applied in world space. In rigger
opinion this option is useless in production rigs, so this fix
should not be a problem.

Support for UV Stretching overlay during multi object editing. The
VBO now holds the ratios per fase. In the shader these ratios will
be compared against the global ratios. The global rations are created
from all selected objects.
The current implementation does not fit well with the draw module. The
plan is to move the drawing of other spaces towards the draw manager what
leads to a better fit. Currently the details on this solution is unclear
but this requirement will become an attentionpoint in the future design.

Instead use vertical cursor motion for Y axis shear.
This removes the shear_axis option completely since we now have two
axis options used by shear it's not needed.
E.g. box selecting wouldn't allow selecting the first file.
Work selection and shift/ctrl selection had similar issues.
Code assumed that the first item was the '..' parent item and manually
removed it from the selection. I could just remove this special
handling, but instead I made the behavior more dynamic. So the file list
checks if the '..' item is there and only then applies special
treatment.
That way we can easily bring the '..' item back or make it optional if
wanted.

When select a layer in Dopesheet, the autolock layer was not working.
Now the Dopesheet code calls the function for autolock. Also some code cleanup to move the logic to new function.
In order to correctly drive corrective shape keys from a freely
rotating organic joint it is very often found necessary to
decompose the rotation into separate bending and twisting
motions. This type of decomposition cannot be reproduced by
any Euler order or a single quaternion.
Instead this is done by using a helper bone with a Damped Track
constraint aimed at the tail of the control to pick up the bending,
and its helper child with Copy Transforms to separate the twist.
Requiring two additional bones to drive a shape key or a correction
bone seems inconvenient, so this implements the necessary math as new
options in the recently introduced Rotation Mode dropdown of the
Transform Channel driver variable type. The data is also accessible
as a Transformation constraint input.
The output is in the form of Quaternion-derived 'pseudo-angles',
which for `Swing and Y Twist` would represent the following:
* W: true bend angle, independent of bend direction.
* Y: true twist angle.
* X, Z: pseudo-angles representing the proportion of bending around X/Z.

This is a general redesign of the File Browser GUI and interaction
methods. For screenshots, check patch D5601.
Main changes in short:
* File Browser as floating window
* New layout of regions
* Popovers for view and filter options
* Vertical list view with interactive column header
* New and updated icons
* Keymap consistency fixes
* Many tweaks and fixes to the drawing of views
----
General:
* The file browser now opens as temporary floating window. It closes on
Esc. The header is hidden then.
* When the file browser is opened as regular editor, the header remains
visible.
* All file browser regions are now defined in Python (the button
layout).
* Adjusted related operator UI names.
Keymap:
Keymap is now consistent with other list-based views in Blender, such as
the Outliner.
* Left click to select, double-click to open
* Right-click context menus
* Shift-click to fill selection
* Ctrl-click to extend selection
Operator options:
These previously overlapped with the source list, which caused numerous
issues with resizing and presenting many settings in a small panel area.
It was also generally inconsistent with Blender.
* Moved to new sidebar, which can easily be shown or hidden using a
prominent Options toggle.
* IO operators have new layouts to match this new sidebar, using
sub-panels. This will have to be committed separately (Add-on
repository).
* If operators want to show the options by default, they have the option
to do so (see `WM_FILESEL_SHOW_PROPS`, `hide_props_region`), otherwise
they are hidden by default.
General Layout:
The layout has been changed to be simpler, more standard, and fits
better in with Blender 2.8.
* More conventional layout (file path at top, file name at the bottom,
execute/cancel buttons in bottom right).
* Use of popovers to group controls, and allow for more descriptive
naming.
* Search box is always live now, just like Outliner.
Views:
* Date Modified column combines both date and time, also uses user
friendly strings for recent dates (i.e. "Yesterday", "Today").
* Details columns (file size, modification date/time) are now toggleable
for all display types, they are not hardcoded per display type.
* File sizes now show as B, KB, MB, ... rather than B, KiB, MiB, … They
are now also calculated using base 10 of course.
* Option to sort in inverse order.
Vertical List View:
* This view now used a much simpler single vertical list with columns
for information.
* Users can click on the headers of these columns to order by that
category, and click again to reverse the ordering.
Icons:
* Updated icons by Jendrzych, with better centering.
* Files and folders have new icons in Icon view.
* Both files and folders have reworked superimposed icons that show
users the file/folder type.
* 3D file documents correctly use the 3d file icon, which was unused
previously.
* Workspaces now show their icon on Link/Append - also when listed in
the Outliner.
Minor Python-API breakage:
* `bpy.types.FileSelectParams.display_type`: `LIST_SHORT` and
`LIST_LONG` are replaced by `LIST_VERTICAL` and `LIST_HORIZONTAL`.
Removes the feature where directories would automatically be created if
they are entered into the file path text button, but don't exist. We
were not sure if users use it enough to keep it. We can definitely bring
it back.

In weightpaint it is possible to enable the bone selection mode. During
drawing the overlay was rendered, but during selection this was ignored.
Users needed to double click in order to select bones even when the overlay
was enabled.
This patch makes bone selection possible during weight painting using the pose mode bone
selection overlay with a single click.

We can now generate a proper path here, make use of it.
Note: not sure how property pyrna path is supposed to be accessed? code is
similar to the struct pyrna path anyway...
Main issue was that `rna_prepend_real_ID_path()` would return
nothing in case given path was NULL, when it should actually return the
`prefix` computed by `RNA_find_real_ID_and_path()` in that case...
Also make return `real_id` pointer optionnal, no reasons to make it
mandatory here. And some general naming fixes.
Now that we 'properly' support private ID data in lib management, there
is no reason anymore to have that custom func, badly named and
by-passing the whole generic ID management code.
Not sure exactly why that was working with nodetrees in depsgraph (could be some special
code in the despgraph), but we always want to allocate memory for the nodetrees here!
