Replace: `{BLENDER_RESOURCE_PATH_USER}/extensions`
With: `{BLENDER_USER_EXTENSIONS}`
This follows BLENDER_USER_CONFIG & BLENDER_USER_SCRIPTS conventions.
Reading the environment variable and accessible via
`bpy.utils.user_resource('SCRIPTS')`
This was only used on WIN32 when the temporary directory didn't exist.
When the check was added [0] this made some sense because it relied on
`U.tempdir` existing, since then additional checks have been added to
ensure a temporary directory can be used. Further, this fall-back
location isn't documented in the user manual.

- Pass null instead of an empty string to BKE_tempdir_init
because the string isn't meant to be used.
- Never pass null to BLI_temp_directory_path_copy_if_valid
(the caller must check).
- Additional comments for which checks are performed & why
from discussion about #95411.
- Skip leading forward slashes when setting the temp directory.
- Add a utility function to set the temporary directory
which is used for the user preferences & environment variables.
This issue was raised by #95411 where "//" resolves to "/",
then asserts when passed to Blender's file-system functions.
However the crash referenced in this report looks to be caused
by Collada failing to write to the temporary directory which
can be handled separately.

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.
NDEBUG is part of the C standard and disables asserts. Only this will
now be used to decide if asserts are enabled.
DEBUG was a Blender specific define, that has now been removed.
_DEBUG is a Visual Studio define for builds in Debug configuration.
Blender defines this for all platforms. This is still used in a few
places in the draw code, and in external libraries Bullet and Mantaflow.

The recent change to header copyrights [0] unintentionally changed
"Blender Foundation" to "Blender Authors" for the WIN32 file path
which blender is installed into.
Revert lines changed that aren't related to copyright text.
[0]: e955c94ed3
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.
Also see #103343.
Couldn't move two files yet:
* `softbody.c`: The corresponding regression test fails. It seems like the
conversion to C++ changes floating point accuracy, but it's not clear where that happens exactly.
* `writeffmpeg.c`: Is a bit more complex to convert because of the static array in `av_err2str`.
