This patch shows the start and end frames of the Movie Clip in its UI
template, which is now shown in the compositor node N-panel and camera

Move several clip and mask display options into a common Overlays popover,
consistent with other editors. Includes a global toggle (Shift-Alt-Z) to
show/hide all overlays at once.
Also adds the missing annotations toggle, cursor visibility toggle, and moves mask display options in
the Image Editor into the Overlays popover due to shared code paths.
See PR for images.

The grid layout type for UI list is planned for removal in 5.0, see
blender/blender#110461.
In previous UI meetings, we talked about deprecating the Grid mode of
the UI list, which is not actually accessible in UI and was never used.
Nowadays, there is a new grid view that can be exposed in the API in
the future.
Initially, I wanted to remove references to layout_type in UI templates
in the text editor, because a lot of add-on developers on the
extensions platform base their lists on that code, and a lot of them
are therefore including soon to be deprecated code in their add-ons,
which I want to avoid in the future. But I thought we might as well
remove it from our python scripts as well, since it's just basically
redundant code that doesn't do anything. And also because many add-on
developers use bundled python scripts for references as well.

Relative imports are intentionally avoided in UI code (`scripts/startup/bl_ui`) because it makes it impossible to run individual files in isolation.
Common workflow for making mock-ups and quick UI edits is to load the UI file in Blender's text editor with "Edit Source" operator, make changes, and run the script to see the changes. But in the current version it's impossible because files include relative imports, which don't allow Python to run scripts individually.

This adds an Animation panel to the Footage tab of the n-panel of the Movie Clip
editor. Movie Clips have various properties that can be animated, but there was
previously no way to manage the Action and Slot that held those F-Curves.

This adds an Animation panel to the Mask tab of the n-panel of the
Movie Clip and Image editors. Masks can be animated (for example, the
opacity of a Mask Layer), but there was no way to manage the Action
and Slot that held those F-Curves.
To keep things DRY, this PR also moves the code for drawing Action+Slot
selectors from the `PropertiesAnimationMixin` class to a utility
function, which is now called from both that class and the Mask UI code.

- Wrap the closing parenthesis onto it's own line
which makes assignments to the return value
read better.
- Reduce right-shift with multi-line function calls.
Reorganizes (and in some cases add missing operators to) all 'Select'
menus in all editors except 3D Viewport (done in a separate patch).
The goal of this change is to make menus as consistent as possible, and
to group & sort items according to a certain logic, which should be easy to
remember and users can always expect certain items to be always at same
place in every editor.

Part of modernizing scripts in Blender, where the previous convention
was to use percentage formatting which has become the "old" way to
format strings in Python.
See proposal for details #120453.
Ref !120552
Updates to refactor from [0].
- Rename "_context" as it's no longer unused.
- Remove call to `iface_` as the string no longer contains text.
- Remove redundant `enumerate(..)`.
- Use ternary operator instead of a tuple lookup.
- Assign a ratio variable for reuse.
[0]: 7e2075b809
Extract
- Statuses for the external text editor
- Newly created enum node item
- Newly created plane track data
- Newly created custom orientation data
- Operator names in drag and drop menu (need to use operator's
translation context)
- GN attribute statistic node inputs
Disambiguate
- Single-letter colors: A and B can mean Alpha and Blue, or simply A
and B as in two operands in an operation
- Dissolve: issue reported by Tamar Mebonia in #43295
- Translate in the User Preferences. This introduces a new
BLT_I18NCONTEXT_EDITOR_PREFERENCES ("Preferences") translation
context
- Planar (reported by deathblood)
This one is incomplete, because there is currently no way to
disambiguate presets or GN fields. I don't see how either could be
achieved cleanly.
The former would need to define the context inside the preset and
evaluate the file prior to showing it in the presets menu, which
sound bad.
The latter would need to introduce an additional string inside
`FieldInput`s, which would be controversial given how little it
would be used.
Remove
- Unused translation `iface_("%s")` in toolbar
- Remove obsolete N_() tags in a few node descriptions.

Extract:
- Operators' poll messages, including Python-defined ones.
- Use default translation context for the region toggle pie menu.
- Newly created F-Curve modifiers.
- Newly created video tracker track.
- Grease Pencil UV area status message
- Status messages in the graph slider operators.
- Status message "Text <text.py>" when opening .blend with
auto-executing Python file.
Disambiguate:
- Track: can mean NLA track, video tracking, a tracking marker, or
a track constraint.
- Tracking: can mean video tracking, or a track constraint.

View menu in animation and video editors are too
different from each other and unorganized.
Same operators appear in different places in different editors.
That makes navigating them harder, because for example
you expect framing operators at the bottom because they're
at the bottom in graph editor, but they're at the top in Sequencer
and 3D Viewport. It's important that ordering of operators
match as well as possible, so that users can expect certain
operators in certain places and dont spend time searching
for buttons in messy menus.
I tried to match ordering to 3D viewport menu
as much as possible, and also to use separators right,
so that grouping of items is logical and can be shareable between editors.
This grouping also looks better and makes navigation easier,
because it splits huge pile of toggles at the top of the menus
in smaller chunks and puts operators between them,
so they're esier to separate them in one glance.

The previous commit introduced a new `RPT_()` macro to translate
strings which are not tooltips or regular interface elements, but
longer reports or statuses.
This commit uses the new macro to translate many strings all over the
UI.
Most of it is a simple replace from `TIP_()` or `IFACE_()` to
`RPT_()`, but there are some additional changes:
- A few translations inside `BKE_report()` are removed altogether
because they are already handled by the translation system.
- Messages inside `UI_but_disable()` are no longer translated
manually, but they are handled by a new regex in the translation
system.

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
Rather than forcing the user to initiate a transform operation to edit the `Proportional Size`, allow editing of the `Proportional Size` through the UI.
The affected headers are:
- View 3D
- Dop Sheet
- Image Editor
- Graph Editor
- Mask Editor

Use names:
- `tool_settings` instead of `ts`.
- `props` instead of `op` / `prop` / `op_props`
As Python may reference operators, don't confuse the operator
properties with an instance of the operator.
In both cases these names were already used for most scripts.
- "Lens" can be a transparent object used in cameras, or specifically
its property of focal length
- "Empty" can be an adjective meaning void, or an object type. The
latter is already disambiguated using `ID_ID`
- "New" and "Old" are adjectives that can have agreements in some
languages
- "Modified" is an adjective that can have agreement in some languages
- "Clipping" can be a property of a camera, or a behavior of the
mirror modifier
- "Value" in HSV nodes, see #105113
- "Area" in the Face Area geometry node, can mean a measurement or a
window type
- "New" is an adjective that can have agreement
- "Tab" can be a UI element or a whitespace character
- "Volume" can mean a measurement or an object type. The latter is
already disambiguated using `ID_ID`
These changes introduce the new `BLT_I18NCONTEXT_TIME` translation
context.
They also remove `BLT_I18NCONTEXT_VIRTUAL_REALITY`, which I added at
one point but then couldn't find which messages I wanted to fix with
it.

- "Value" in the sense of color lightness is not the same word in
Japanese as other usages. See #105113.
- "Double" as a data type vs. a value.
Also extract "Custom Color Presets" in the tracking UI.
Run clang-format as well.
Pull Request #105187
This commit implements described in the #104573.
The goal is to fix the confusion of the submodule hashes change, which are not
ideal for any of the supported git-module configuration (they are either always
visible causing confusion, or silently staged and committed, also causing
confusion).
This commit replaces submodules with a checkout of addons and addons_contrib,
covered by the .gitignore, and locale and developer tools are moved to the
main repository.
This also changes the paths:
- /release/scripts are moved to the /scripts
- /source/tools are moved to the /tools
- /release/datafiles/locale is moved to /locale
This is done to avoid conflicts when using bisect, and also allow buildbot to
automatically "recover" wgen building older or newer branches/patches.
Running `make update` will initialize the local checkout to the changed
repository configuration.
Another aspect of the change is that the make update will support Github style
of remote organization (origin remote pointing to thy fork, upstream remote
pointing to the upstream blender/blender.git).
