When syncing in the background the UI could refresh immediately
before clicking making it possible for the user to install the wrong
extension. Since install also enables the extension, it meant it was
too easy to accidentally run untrusted code.
Disable install/upgrade while sync runs.
Also tweak text alignment and use round brackets for "(disabled)"
extensions.
Use a per-extension menu so extra functionality can be accessed from
one place.
- The install/upgrade button remains top-level.
- "Uninstall" and "Visit Website" have been moved into the menu.
- Theme extensions can be set from the menu.
- Installed add-on extensions have a "View Details" menu item
to switch to the add-ons view (useful to access preferences).
Based on design by Pablo & Dalai.

- Use line separator over box instead of separate boxes.
- Format web-links with a label, then the button instead
of positioning the buttons side-by-side.

Add back the "Add-ons" preferences, removing add-on logic from
extensions.
- Add support for filtering add-ons by tags
(separate from extension tags).
- Tags now respect the "Only Enabled" option.
- Remove the ability to enable/disable add-ons from extensions.
- Remove add-on preferences from extensions.
- Remove "Legacy" & "Core" prefix from add-on names.
- Remove "Show Legacy Add-ons" filtering option.
Implements design task #122735.
Details:
- Add-on names and descriptions are no longer translated,
since it's impractical to translate text which is mostly
maintained outside of Blender.
- Extensions names have a `[disabled]` suffix when disabled so it's
possible to identify installed but disabled extensions.
- The add-on "type" is shown in the details,
so it's possible to tell the difference between an extension,
a core add-on & a legacy user add-on.
- Icons are also used to differentiate the add-on type.
- User add-on's must be uninstalled from the add-ons section
(matching 4.1 behavior).
- Simplify logic for filtering tags, move into a function.
When installing from disk, include remote repositories in the list.
- Works with drag & drop from file system.
- This is the only way to "downgrade" an extensions.
Extensions in remote repositories that have no remote entries (orphans)
are now listed in the UI and the "list" sub-command.
Required for installing into remote repositories from disk (see #122302)
Details:
- Consistent ordering (local, remote) arguments.
- Use zip(..., strict=True) when sequences are expected to be aligned.
Dropping an extension URL for an incompatible package displayed the
"Unknown Repository" dialog.
Resolve by detecting the case of an unknown package being dropped from
a known repository. Noting the package may not be compatible.
- Add an option to build a separate package for each platform, this is
useful to produce smaller packages when large wheels are included.
- Add a reserved field: "[build.generated]" to the manifest when
splitting by platform which overrides the root-level platform
when it exists.
The new extension system introduces tags, similar to categories from
legacy add-ons, and permissions. A hardcoded list is supported for
each, available in the docs:
- https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/advanced/extensions/tags.html
- https://developer.blender.org/docs/features/extensions/schema/
This change allows extraction of these new metadata to the translation
files.
In order to disambiguate the new messages, tags use the new "Script"
translation context. Permissions are lower case, so there is a low
risk of collision, and they use the default context.
While the tags are defined per-platform, with extensions.blender.org
being the only one available currently, they are extracted as a single
list.

This was only being used for a single debugging option,
additional developer reports are now used when enabling
the extensions debugging option (under experimental).
Run each update as a separate job, previously updates for each
repository was split into a separate job however that would only
use parallel connections with multiple online repositories which
isn't used by default. Currently the connection limit is hard-coded but
will be made into a preference.
The internal API call to refresh remote data wasn't returning
the resulting data, making it inconvenient to refresh & access
remote meta-data from a single repository.
