Symptoms were drivers still being active while others seemingly
disabled. Indices in the RNA path up to the `ANIM_remove_driver` call
are correct, so it is not entirely clear to me why this goes wrong, but
forcing an update by tagging animation resolves the issue.
NOTE from @dr.sybren : Without this fix, the old copy-for-evaluation
is still there, which still has the driver (because it's a copy)
NOTE: seems we are not handling ND_FCURVES_ORDER anywhere?

Add-ons can call a batch draw command for lines using a surface shader.
This is not intended and polylines shaders should be used. This PR
lighten this restriction to automatically replace the shader with the
correct polyline shader, similar to immediate mode.
This change is done inside the python wrapper as internally we should
use the correct polyline shader.
For point shaders we don't have a work around in place and that needs
more discussion. Therefore this is only a partial fix.

Previously spell checker ignored text in single quotes however this
meant incorrect spelling was ignored in text where it shouldn't have
been.
In cases single quotes were used for literal strings
(such as variables, code & compiler flags),
replace these with back-ticks.
In cases they were used for UI labels,
replace these with double quotes.
In cases they were used to reference symbols,
replace them with doxygens symbol link syntax (leading hash).
Apply some spelling corrections & tweaks (for check_spelling_* targets).
It's safer to pass a type so that it can be checked if delete should be
used instead. Also changes a few void pointer casts to const_cast so that
if the data becomes typed it's an error.

The goal here is to avoid having to cast to and from `ID` when getting the
evaluated or original ID using the depsgraph API, which is often verbose and not
type safe. To solve this, there are now `DEG_get_original` and
`DEG_get_evaluated` methods which are templated on the type and use a new
`is_ID_v` static type check to make sure it's only used with valid types.
This allows removing quite some verbosity on all the call sites. I also removed
`DEG_get_original_object`, because that does not have to be a special case
anymore.

Adds a C++ based FBX importer, using 3rd party ufbx library (design task:
#131304). The old Python based importer is still there; the new one is marked
as "(experimental)" in the menu item. Drag-and-drop uses the old Python
importer; the new one is only in the menu item.
The new importer is generally 2x-5x faster than the old one, and often uses
less memory too. There's potential to make it several times faster still.
- ASCII FBX files are supported now
- Binary FBX files older than 7.1 (SDK 2012) version are supported now
- Better handling of "geometric transform" (common in 3dsmax), manifesting
as wrong rotation for some objects when in a hierarchy (e.g. #131172)
- Some FBX files that the old importer was failing to read are supported now
(e.g. cases 47344, 134983)
- Materials import more shader parameters (IOR, diffuse roughness,
anisotropy, subsurface, transmission, coat, sheen, thin film) and shader
models (e.g. OpenPBR or glTF2 materials from 3dsmax imports much better)
- Importer now creates layered/slotted animation actions. Each "take" inside
FBX file creates one action, and animated object within it gets a slot.
- Materials that use the same texture several times no longer create
duplicate images; the same image is used
- Material diffuse color animations were imported, but they only animated
the viewport color. Now they also animate the nodetree base color too.
- "Ignore Leaf Bones" option no longer ignores leaf bones that are actually
skinned to some parts of the mesh.
- Previous importer was creating orphan invisible Camera data objects for
some files (mostly from MotionBuilder?), new one properly creates these
cameras.
Import settings that existed in Python importer, but are NOT DONE in the new
one (mostly because not sure if they are useful, and no one asked for them
from feedback yet):
- Manual Orientation & Forward/Up Axis: not sure if actually useful. FBX
file itself specifies the axes fairly clearly. USD/glTF/Alembic also do
not have settings to override them.
- Use Pre/Post Rotation (defaults on): feels like it should just always be
on. ufbx handles that internally.
- Apply Transform (defaults off, warning icon): not sure if needed at all.
- Decal Offset: Cycles specific. None of other importers have it.
- Automatic Bone Orientation (defaults off): feels like current behavior
(either on or off) often produces "nonsensical bones" where bone direction
does not go towards the children with either setting. There are discussions
within I/O and Animation modules about different ways of bone
visualizations and/or different bone length axes, that would solve this
in general.
- Force Connect Children (defaults off): not sure when that would be useful.
On several animated armatures I tried, it turns armature animation
into garbage.
- Primary/Secondary Bone Axis: again not sure when would be useful.
Importer UI screenshots, performance benchmark details and TODOs for later
work are in the PR.

Every call to BM_faces_join and BM_faces_join_pair has been adjusted to
provide the new face pointer, and a BLI_assert_msg has been added so
that doubles are now consistently identified and flagged as a problem.
BM_faces_join is now also capable of automatically reusing a double
when it is found. This new behavior is currently unused at this point.
Future patch-sets will begin to use it, allowing simplification of
calling functions.

Remove long-deprecated constraints that will likely never be
implemented in this form.
- Rigid Body Joint Constraint was removed in 2.80, but some references
remained in the code. Versioning code was written that tried to
remove them on load, but since constraint initialization code sets
the type to CONSTRAINT_TYPE_NULL before versioning gets a chance,
the versioning code ended up never running. This has all been
removed.
- Python/Script Constraint never worked since 2.50 and showed an error
message in the UI panel.
These constraints now load as 'null' constraint, as seems to be
(looking at the code) the way that Blender currently deals with
removed constraint types. These still show up in the outliner and
python API, but have no UI panel. Removing such constraints completely
will be left for another time, as it is beyond the scope of removing
these two specific constraint types.

Some paths in Blender support the `//` prefix for blend-file relative
paths however this is not communicated anywhere.
Support declaring this with a new flag which can be applied to filepath
& dirpath typed properties.
This is used to:
- Show red-alert when "//" are used in paths which don't support a relative prefix.
- Show a warning in the tooltip that the relative suffix is used when unsupported.
- Python warns if this prefix is ever used in an assignment or
function argument.
Resolves#133456.

When drawing specialized cursors for the different paint modes via the
`wmPaintCursor` draw callback, tablet tilt direction is unavailable to
use to customize the drawing for the user.
To enable this functionality, this commit adds the `x_tilt` and `y_tilt`
data read while processing MOUSEMOVE events to the `eventstate` variable
so it can be used by consuming functions.

This is getting in the way of making the
GPUShader API more threadsafe.
This getter already doesn't work for vulkan
and Metal, and has very limited usage.
Keeping the python function to avoid errors
and display a deprecation warning.

When debugging with gdb in vscode, the stuff I print when executing a script in
the text editor does not show up in the terminal. It does work when I flush
explicitly though using `print(..., flush=True)`. This is quite annoying.
The solution is to always flush `stdout` and `stderr` automatically when running
a script. This is done using the CPython API, as just using
`fflush(stdout/stderr)` did not solve the issue.

In Geometry Nodes a geometry is represented by a `GeometrySet`. This is a
container that can contain one geometry of each of the supported types (mesh,
curves, volume, grease pencil, pointcloud, instances). It's possible for a
`GeometrySet` to contain e.g. a mesh and a point cloud.
This patch creates a Python wrapper for the built-in `GeometrySet`. For now,
it's main purpose is to consume the complete evaluated geometry of an object
without having to go through complex hoops via `depsgraph.object_instances`. It
also also allows retrieving instances that have been created with legacy
instancing systems such as dupli-verts or particles.
In the future, the `GeometrySet` API could also be used for more kinds of
geometry processing from Python, similar to how we use `GeometrySet` internally
as generic geometry storage.
Since we can't really have constness guarantees in Python currently, it's
enforced that the `GeometrySet` wrapper always has its own copy of each geometry
type (so e.g. it does not share a `Mesh` data-block pointer with any other place
in Blender). Without the copy, changes to the mesh in the geometry set would
also affect the evaluated geometry that Blender sees. The copy has a small cost,
but typically the overhead should be low, because attributes and other run-time
data can still be shared. This should be entirely thread-safe, assuming that no
code modifies implicitly shared data, which is forbidden. For historic reasons
there are still cases like #132423 where this assumption does not hold in all
cases. Those cases should be fixed. To my knowledge, this patch does not
introduce any new such issues or makes existing issues worse.
