It's a little bit unclear, but the initial reason we set this to false was because we wanted to make sure most of the 'metal print' releated features dropped in 5.1, not 5.0?
still CURA-8097 .. sort of
Overwhelmingly in our community it seems that the overhang and seam quality is better when printing inside-out.
Ultimaker found that the quality is better (in particular the dimensional accuracy) when printing outside-in. So let them have it outside-in and the rest inside-out.
Made after experimental evidence on Reddit (and in the past on Github).
That way, an extruder profile can say that they want this.
If any extruder needs this setting enabled, it will be enabled for the whole print.
Done as a 5 minute fix.
Enabling this adds more control, possibly improving the productivity of the printer by allowing higher acceleration and jerk rates during travel moves where they have less of an impact.
Disabling this reduces the size of the g-code and the CPU requirements of the printer.

We don't want to filter based on the length of the filtered region, but based on the induced extra line width variation.
This diables the setting for the frontend, but doesn't fully remove it yet. TODO
material_shrinkage_percentage_xy and material_shrinkage_percentage_z cannot depend on material_shrinkage_percentage otherwise their resolve function will not execute properly.
I noticed that the shrinkage factors do not get the correct value if a wrong nozzle is chosen for a material. However, in that case the slicer will also not slice, so in practice this is not an issue

New calculations to determine the average shrinkage when two materials are used. By default the material shrinkage is set to null (None). In that case the shrinkage of that material is not taken into account in the new averaging formula. Support materials such as PVA, BAM, Aquasys etc. should keep this setting to null. When two materials are used with a shrinkage percentage the average of these two materials will be used.

We will only support the Inwards Distributed strategy type from here on out. You can achieve a similar result as that one by adjusting the Wall Distribution Count setting (1 is Center Deviation, 2 is Inwards Distributed, 999999 approximates Distributed).

We've removed a bunch of settings and transformed others. To allow profiles to be checked for these and edited if necessary, we now need to increment this version number.

It is no longer used since we've removed the Fill Gaps Between Walls setting. This setting is no longer referred to from CuraEngine.

Adding and splitting of lines results in print artefacts and additional travel moves. Avoiding these by sacrificing some additional line width change is better. The linewidth can never very more then 75% - 150%, so this long filter distance cannot cause huge line width changes. PP-129
The parent settings have default values, which come out to different values than the old ones
when using the "value" function formula.
This commit sets the default values at the values as they are calculated from using 0.4mm line widths and 0.3mm min line widths.
The formula in that setting means that this setting was always the same as the Min Odd Wall Line Width,
but that is not really a natural value for this setting.
The absolute minimum for a line is generally known to be 75% of the nozzle size, so we use that instead.
