This somewhat changes the meaning of outputs from processing 2.x.
In 2.x processing outputs were used both as a method of specifying
inputs to algorithms (file paths to destination layers created
by the algorithm) AND pure outputs (such as statistics calculated
by the algorithm).
This is now split. The old input-type-outputs (destination layers)
are now input parameters (since the parameter value IS an input to the
algorithm). To differentiate them from parameters indicating pure
input layers a new "isDestination()" method was added to
QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.
Output definitions are now purely indications of values CREATED
by the algorithms. Suitable candidates are the existing calculated
stats and actual file path/URI of any layers created by the algorithm.
Moving forward we should ensure all algorithms output as much
useful information as possible - e.g. number of features processed,
number of skipped features, count null geometries encountered, etc...
While the processing API is in such a state of flux it's
become unmaintainable to port these algorithms change-by-change.
Instead, disable them all until the API is fixed, and then we
can port them algorithm by algorithm and reactivate each
test in turn.
when changing current band
Now the widget asks users if they want to delete existing categories
when they switch a band, just like how the categorized renderer
widget asks when the categorized field is changed.
setMaximumScale() and setMinimumScale(), maximumScale() and
minimumScale() had the opposite meaning to other min/max scales
in the API, and were the opposite to how these settings were
exposed in the GUI. This lead to very confusing API!!
Their definitions have now been swapped. setMaximumScale
now sets the maximum (i.e. largest scale, or most zoomed in)
at which the layer will appear, and setMinimumScale now sets
the minimum (i.e. smallest scale, or most zoomed out) at
which the layer will appear. The same is true for the
maximumScale and minimumScale getters.
