Allows running some action when the context changes to make the
asset shelf region visible. Also add an option for when whether the
shelf should be visible by default when the poll succeeds.

The depsgraph CoW mechanism is a bit of a misnomer. It creates an
evaluated copy for data-blocks regardless of whether the copy will
actually be written to. The point is to have physical separation between
original and evaluated data. This is in contrast to the commonly used
performance improvement of keeping a user count and copying data
implicitly when it needs to be changed. In Blender code we call this
"implicit sharing" instead. Importantly, the dependency graph has no
idea about the _actual_ CoW behavior in Blender.
Renaming this functionality in the despgraph removes some of the
confusion that comes up when talking about this, and will hopefully
make the depsgraph less confusing to understand initially too. Wording
like "the evaluated copy" (as opposed to the original data-block) has
also become common anyway.

Along with the 4.1 libraries upgrade, we are bumping the clang-format
version from 8-12 to 17. This affects quite a few files.
If not already the case, you may consider pointing your IDE to the
clang-format binary bundled with the Blender precompiled libraries.
`WM_draw_region_free()` should manage region-draw data, and not change
region state. This should be done by normal region state management
functions. Especially for a flag like `ARegion::visible` which is just
the cached result of the region's visibility evaluation, not the proper
way to actualy manage the region visibility.
This was hard coded to 8, which can still result in a number that
jitters making the overall FPS difficult to measure.
The default is still 8, but this is now a preference that can be
increased for values that don't jitter as much.
The average times weren't reset so the last draw time would be used
making the FPS seem low for the first ~10 or so frames.
The averages from the last time the playback operator ran were also
used which could be misleading although this was also limited to the
first 8 frames.
Resolve by freeing the ScreenFrameRateInfo on animation start/end.
Calculating the average FPS was done in the draw function which
also overwrote the old value. With multiple viewports the same
time-delta would be written multiple times causing the FPS display
not to use use REDRAW_FRAME_AVERAGE as intended.
Resolve by only calculating the average once per frame change across
multiple viewports.
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.
No user visible changes expected, except of new experimental feature
option.

This introduces asset shelves as a new standard UI element for accessing
assets. Based on the current context (like the active mode and/or tool), they
can provide assets for specific workflows/tasks. As such they are more limited
in functionality than the asset browser, but a lot more efficient for certain
tasks.
The asset shelf is developed as part of the brush assets project (see #101895),
but is also meant to replace the current pose library UI.
Support for asset shelves can quite easily be added to different editor types,
the following commit will add support for the 3D View. If an editor type
supports asset shelves, add-ons can chose to register an asset shelf type for
an editor with just a few lines of Python.
It should be possible to entirely remove `UILayout.asset_view_template()` once
asset shelves are non-experimental.
Some changes are to be expected still, see #107881.

Pull Request: #104831
Resolve a crash in !104831, which exposed an error in window creation
with an empty space type.
Creating a new window with an empty space type would do the following:
- Create a new screen with a single empty area.
- Refresh the screen,
- Initialize the area.
- Convert the empty area into a 3D viewport.
- Run SpaceType::init()
This doesn't cause any problems at the moment because `view3d_init`
isn't doing anything however !104831 accesses the View3D from
`area->spacedata.first` causing SCREEN_OT_area_dupli to crash.
Resolve by supporting an area setup callback for WM_window_open
so the area-data can be set before it's initialized.
The issue remains where an unknown/empty ScrArea::spacetype results in
a crash although it seems unlikely users run into this in practice.
Whatever the case, that can be resolved separately.
This formats code that is disabled using `#if 0`. Formatting was achieved
by temporarily changing `#if 0` to `#if 1 /*something*/`, then formatting,
and then changing it back to `#if 0`.
This moves the remaining `.c` files in the following `editors` folders to C++:
`physics`, `screen`, `sound`, `space_buttons`, `space_file`, `space_graph` and `space_image`.
One exception is `fsmenu.c` which has platform specific issues on macos and
windows. E.g. the `Carbon/Carbon.h` include also declares a `Collection` type that collides
with ours.
Also see #103343.
