Non-editable prop collection items would always fall back to the slower
loop in `rna_raw_access`.
This patch changes `RNA_property_collection_raw_array` to only fail with
non-editable items when intending to set values, allowing for the faster
raw array access to occur when reading values in `rna_raw_access`.
This brings the Python API `bpy_prop_collection.foreach_get` performance
of `Mesh.vertex_normals`/`polygon_normals`/`corner_normals` up to the same
speed as generic `FLOAT_VECTOR` attributes with the same domains.
Given a mesh with 393216 corners:
Using `foreach_get` with the "vector" prop and a compatible buffer object:
- Corner vector attribute: ~0.9ms
- Corner normals (before): ~7.9ms
- Corner normals (after): ~0.9ms
Using `foreach_get` with the "vector" prop and a Python list:
- Corner vector attribute: ~11.0ms
- Corner normals (before): ~18.0ms
- Corner normals (after): ~11.0ms

Remove `Material > Shadow Mode` and use `Object > Shadow Ray Visibility`
and `Material > Transparent Shadows` instead.
The versioning system auto-updates objects/materials in EEVEE
scenes so their behavior is as close as possible to the previous one.
Update Cycles to use the native `use_transparent_shadow` property.
Note:
Material changes don't set any `recalc` flag on the objects that use
them, so the EEVEE Next shadow maps don't update when changing
settings/nodes.
Fixing this issue is required for 4.1, but it's out of the scope of this PR.

The compositor sometimes produces straight alpha even though
premultiplied alpha is expected. Moreover, there is an inconsistency
between the CPU and GPU compositors.
For the GPU compositor, this is because GPU textures sometimes store
straight alpha, while the compositor always expects premultiplied alpha,
so we need to premultiply the alpha in those cases.
For the CPU compositor, this is because the image operation didn't
premultiply the alpha of byte textures, so we need to ensure
premultiplied alpha in those cases.
There is a data loss issue in case of byte images, since the IMB module
unpremultiplies premultiplied images then the compositor premultiplies
it again. But this will be handled in a different patch since it require
some design and refactoring first.

When enabling multi-frame editing, also include the current frame
as editable. Not just the selected frames in the dopesheet.
This was a regression introduced in #114283.
When click-dragging on the 'up-arrow' of the asset-shelf to show it the
first time, some resizing operation could get called before the shelf
region was initialized, leading to crash on null pointer access.
The null byte wasn't taken into account when allocating memory
to strcpy into.
The calculation to check if allocation was needed was also wrong,
causing allocation for every string.
In practice it's not so likely users would ever hit this since
the function tended to over allocate, even in the case an off by one
error occurred, in all likelihood the room would already be available.

If the draw_color method is not defined, try to use draw_color_simple as
a fallback. If not defined either, fallback to a magenta color.
The patch also updates the description of the method to clarify its use.

Selected active strip highlights effect inputs and input channels for
multicam strips. This was done as 3rd pass in `draw_seq_strips()`.
4th pass was highlighting strip when doing solo preview.
Now this is added to a column of functions in `draw_seq_strip()`.
Highlighting effect input and solo preview is done when drawing actual
highlighted strip, but this is still done via alpha blending.
Highlighting multicam has to be done as alpha blending since this is
done by drawing rectangle over whole channel.
Originally code iterated twice over whole listbase with a lot of
preconditions to draw unselected, then selected strips.
Use `sequencer_visible_strips_get()` to get vector of visible strips,
split iteration in 2 separate loops.
Also move `special_seq_update` case to own function.
Use `VectorSet`, `Vector` or `Span` instead of `SeqCollection` struct.
It is now possible to use native `for` loops and `SEQ_ITERATOR_FOREACH`
macro can be removed.
Another feature is, sets of strips no longer needs to be freed. However,
this poses a limitation, that query functions can not be used in case,
where these sets need to be available outside of scope where they are
created.

Minor usability enhancement for the walk navigation mode. Previously
walk navigation had local movement for forward/back/left/right,
but only global movement for up/down.
This PR adds local up/down movement, bound to the R and F keys.

The ordering of geometry nodes in the menus is intended to be
alphabetic, but the new "Set Face Set" node was listed _after_ the
"Set Shade Smooth" node in the Mesh > Write menu. This fixes the order.

This wrapper script can be used instead of executing "blender"
to launch blender in it's own display server which is closed
when Blender quits.
The BLENDER_BIN environment variable is used to run Blender,
forwarding arguments & passing the exit-code back to the script.
This can be used to run automated graphical-tests while still being
in background (from a user perspective).
This has the advantage that windows don't popup in the foreground,
or on servers/VM's that aren't running a graphical session.
Running many Blender instances, each in their own display server
is also supported, allowing for tests to make use of multiple jobs.
Tested with graphical undo tests which have not yet been made part of
CTests (needs further investigation).
Currently this only supports WAYLAND however it can run on X11
since it launches it's own WAYLAND compositor instance for each
Blender session. The wrapper has been written with the intention of
adding support for other back-ends in the future (if practical).
Use the WESTON compositor since it's widely available and has a
headless server, any other WAYLAND-server could likely be used without
much trouble.
This progress report was utterly broken and useless when not exporting
animations, and not great either with animation export. This commit
fixes:
* Not generating any progress report when exporting a single frame.
* Assuming actual data export covers 100% of progress.
That last point is the biggest change, now actual export (be it
animated or still) only covers 75% of the whole range. The rest is used
to cover depsgraph building and updates (which can be noticiably slow
with big scenes), stage writing, etc.
Progression is still far from linear in time, but at least it gives
better feedback on actual progress of the whole export.

Several improvements how PLY files containing vertex normals are imported:
- When they are present on a regular mesh, the code no longer sets
all faces as "flat" (since that makes custom normals be ignored).
- When they are present on a pure point cloud (i.e. no faces),
custom vertex normals are added as a float3 point domain attribute
(ref #114371).
A missing part since PR #110139: the nodes and relations builders
needs to be in-sync and build the same objects. The relations builder
was missing relations building for camera referenced by markers.

Code tried to move such strips (using the same action on equal IDs such
as meshes or shapekeys) between tracks multiple times [even though they
were actually moved already] which could end up with the wrong track
index and things just went downhill from there.
So now skip strips we cannot find in the original track, saves
us from the whole codepatch about "Moving strip into track in the
requested direction".
