This implements layer parenting and layer transforms.
* Adds a new "Transform" panel in the object-data properties with the (local) translation, rotation and scale.
* Adds a new "Relations" panel with the parent property (and also bone name in case the parent is an armature).
* When converting from GPv2 to GPv3, the parent and transforms are converted too.
* Bone names are updated if they are renamed in the armature.
Implementation details:
* The positions in the drawings are always in layer space. During extraction, we transform the positions to object space. Note that this could be optimized further and done in the render engine itself.
* This means that e.g. the selection code (which needs to know where the positions are on screen) now takes this transform into account.
* The layer transform is calculated when accessed (from the location, rotation, scale properties).
* Code that needs to know where the positions are on screen now takes this new transform into account.

The problem was calling a "for eval" function on an original mesh
in the main data-base. The parameters are already copied anyway,
so the call was unnecessary. Also reorder some changes to happen
before the geometry is moved to the original mesh.

Previously the default constructor ran, then the copy or move
assignment. This resulted in extra creations of runtime data,
including allocations of all the shared caches, only for them
to be immediately replaced by the new ones. Move assignment also
didn't clear the source curves completely, which could result in
higher memory usage or worse, extra users for attribute arrays,
which could lead to unnecessary copying.
In a very simple test repeatedly copying a tiny Curves data-block,
I observed a 30% performance improvement.
This also fixes a memory leak of the offsets in the copy assignment.

The main simplification is using return values rather than return
arguments, and the additional semantic clarity from std::optional.
Also use `fmt` for formatting and use lambdas instead of macros
as helpers in a few modal keymap formatting functions.

This simple operator set the edge sharpness attribute on edges,
either extending the existing values or replacing them completely.
It's meant to make it more convenient to manually control the
sharpness now that there can be more reason to do that after
auto smooth became a modifier.

- Incorrect accurate prefiltering of albedo and normal (lower than expected quality)
- Changing the prefiltering mode has no immediate effect
- Default memory limit is too high (more than OIDN default)
- Memory limit is applied only to the main filter
- Quality setting applied only to the main filter

Make sure bf_rna is compiled prior to bf_editor_space_userpref,
so that the RNA_prototypes.h can be included.

Although the information displayed in the status bar is strictly
speaking reports, it makes sense to translate them using the Interface
setting instead of Reports, as the tool names and stats terms are
also translated in other UI places (toolbar, menus).
This change includes status bars statistics and keymaps, and viewport
statistics.
The change is quite extensive as it is all or nothing. Translating
keymaps using Interface means some status messages will include them
indirectly, and thus cannot use Reports without having a weird mix of
original and translated words. In turn, having only some messages
translated would be even more confusing.
The result is that all messages related to input are now translated with
Interface, which I think also makes sense.
Discussed as a followup to !116804.

This came up in #117747.
Unless an object was of OB_VOLUME type, the setting was not updating the
viewport accordingly since the introduction in 365bf103d1. So if for
example a mesh has a "Mesh to Volume" node, the update did not take
place.
If we use context, we can check the evaluated GeometrySet on any object
type with a geometry nodes modifier though and if it has a volume, we
can also tag for update.

This header is for 'internal' USD code only (also needed by the hydra
code), and uses references to the USD library itself, so its previous
name was a bit too generic.
First step to move the main public Blender USD API header (`usd.h`) to cpp.
Adjust ymax of action in frame range so that height will match with the
channel's height. Use same ymax as in `acf_nlaaction_backdrop`.
Also fixed `ycenter` value.

When moving keys in the Graph Editor animators
usually only want to move them on one axis.
While this is possible in a few ways (G+X, or G + Middle Mouse Button click),
we could default the behavior to always lock on an axis.
This was suggested by Dreamworks animators during the
Animation & Rigging module meeting.
https://devtalk.blender.org/t/2024-01-26-animation-rigging-module-meeting/33081#patch-review-decision-time-5
This PR adds an option with which the movement is
always locked to a single axis by default.
The option can be found in the Graph Editor under "View->Auto-Lock Axis".
The movement will then be restricted to the axis along
which you've moved the cursor the most.
You can still manually override the lock behavior by pressing `X` or `Y`.
I am piggybacking off the auto locking feature you get when pressing the middle mouse button.
When the new feature is enabled I call that at the start of the transformation.
Except when:
* only handles are selected
* the tweak mode has been started on a handle
This is to not snap handles, which is a behavior that has
been requested by the artists.

Animators (especially for film and TV) often need
to track the movement of things in screenspace.
At the end of the day, the pixel motion is what counts.
But motion paths were always in world space,
which made it hard to use when the camera
is also animated (during action scenes e.g.)
This PR introduces the feature of projecting a motion path into the screen space of the active scene camera.
Limitations
This makes the motion path only useful when looking through the active scene camera.
Switching the scene camera using markers is not yet supported.
Technical Implementation
This is achieved by baking the motion path points into the
camera space on creation. For every point calculated,
the camera is evaluated through the depsgraph and
the resulting world matrix is used.
Then I pass in the current frame's world matrix of the
camera into the shader to make sure the points follow it.
As can be seen in the video, it looks quite odd when
viewed at another angle but this is expected.
I mentioned that in the tooltip, so it shouldn't be an issue

This makes a change to the debug scripts to make it easier for both
users and those tending to the issue tracker by setting Blender's
temporary directory location to the debug logs location
The is necessary because while the debug output and the system
information file go to %temp%\blender\debug_logs, the crash text file
does not. We then have to spend additional time asking the user to go
fetch it from the other location. Now the crash file ends up in the same
place.

OpenImageDenoise API exposes two modes, high quality and balanced.
This currently only has effect on Nvidia devices, on which it
provides a noticeable performance improvement without visible
difference in quality. This change sets quality to balanced for
the viewport, and high quality for final frame rendering, as
it's what makes the most sense.

The assert attempted to guard against file formats declaring themselves
as "requiring a float buffer" but outputing to a "byte buffer". However,
DPX seems to permit this and the code seems to support it correctly.
The assert was originally added in 2022 by 5baa3ecda6. Subsequently the
test which exposed the problem was added in 2023 by 7699c7407d. But the
issue at hand has existed since DPX was added; it's the only format with
this combination of capabilities.
