The versioning of legacy-to-modern Grease Pencil is using slotted
Actions (because that's the current animation API), and therefore
assumes that the Action & Slot assignments have been versioned as well.
The latter now actually happens before the former, so that assumption is
now actually valid.

This PR creates 2 namespaces for VSE code:
- `blender::seq` for sequencer core code
- `blender::ed::vse` for editor code
These names are chosen to not be in conflict with each other.
No namespace was used for RNA.
Finally, file `BKE_sequencer_offscreen.h` was moved from BKE to sequencer.

The general idea is to keep the 'old', C-style MEM_callocN signature, and slowly
replace most of its usages with the new, C++-style type-safer template version.
* `MEM_cnew<T>` allocation version is renamed to `MEM_callocN<T>`.
* `MEM_cnew_array<T>` allocation version is renamed to `MEM_calloc_arrayN<T>`.
* `MEM_cnew<T>` duplicate version is renamed to `MEM_dupallocN<T>`.
Similar templates type-safe version of `MEM_mallocN` will be added soon
as well.
Following discussions in !134452.
NOTE: For now static type checking in `MEM_callocN` and related are slightly
different for Windows MSVC. This compiler seems to consider structs using the
`DNA_DEFINE_CXX_METHODS` macro as non-trivial (likely because their default
copy constructors are deleted). So using checks on trivially
constructible/destructible instead on this compiler/system.

The issue was that the versioning code didn't run when loading the action.
Thus it had no slots and so was crashing trying to get the first slot.
This PR fixes that in 2 ways:
* Check the slot count of the loaded action, and return/notify the user
* Actually make sure the actions are versioned
Point 1 is important anyway because actions can have no slots (though unlikely).
Point 2 ensures that old pose assets can actually be used

Note: This commit is essentially non-behavioral change, expect in some
fairly rare edge cases.
This commit does a few things:
* Move the whole BKE_main_namemap code to modern C++.
* Split API calls to work with the global namemap, or the local ones.
* Simplify and make the code easier to follow and understand.
* Reduce 'default' memory usage by using growing BitVector for numeric
suffix management, instead of a fixed 1K items.
* Fix inconsistent handling of 'same base name and numeric suffix,
different name' issues (e.g. 'Foo.1' and 'Foo.001'), see
`re_create_equivalent_numeric_suffixes` new unittest.
* Fix completely broken handling of `global` namemaps. This was
(probably!) OK so far because of their currently very limited
use-cases.
It also adds a few minor improvements to existing behavior (essentially
in exotic rare edge cases):
* Names that get too long are now only shortened by one char at a time,
trying to modify the requested base name as little as possible.
* Names that are short, but for which all the manageable numeric suffixes
are already in use, are extended with an (increasing) number, instead
of being shortened.
This work also allowed to detect a few (apparently harmless?) bugs in
existing code, which have been fixed already in 4.4 and main, or in this
commit as well when they depend on changes in namemap code itself.
About performances: This commit introduces a minor slow-down. Some tests
heavily relying on this code (like `bl_id_management` and `blendkernel`
e.g.) get slightly slower (resp. about 1% and 5%). This seems to come
mostly from the added complexity to handle correctly multiple different
names with the same base and numeric suffix value ('Foo.1' and
'Foo.001', but also in the global namemap context where IDs from
different libraries can have the same name).

With 4c67c78452 we changed the default theme color for front faces,
used by the Face Orientation overlay, to have zero alpha so that it
could be used in more cases. But versioning updated this for all old
files, which can overwrite users who made deliberate changes to it.
This PR alters the versioning code to only change the color if it
currently exactly matches the old default.

With the brush assets project, brushes were moved from being local to
the working blendfile to being linked from asset libraries. This breaks
the Image Paint 'Clone' brush, as it has a brush property that links to
other Image datablocks.
To support this functionality, this commit adds the corresponding
properties into the `ImagePaintSettings` struct so that it is stored
locally with the images that will be used by the tool, inside the main
blendfile.
The source image property is shared with the 3D version of the 'Clone'
brush instead of adding a separate field to preserve old behavior.
Notably, this has the following limitations:
* If clone brush assets have been made and shared with external packs,
they would not work out of the box with linked image assets.
* Despite these settings being stored on the scene, they are populated
inside the tool window under "Brush Settings" which is potentially
misleading. However, this is already the case for the 3D version of
the brush, so further UI refinement will happen outside of this PR.
* Users will be unable to use separate images simultaneously for the
Image editor and the 3D viewport, unlike in pre-4.3 versions. This
can be adjusted in the future if it is a critical workflow.
Because the intended design and functionality of this tool is currently
questionable, this commit opts to make these changes instead of doing
further design to support both accessing data on the brush and on the
scene.

Restriction of the nodes api to clearly define never-null function arguments.
Side effects: some assertions and null-check (with early return) were removed.
On the caller side is ensured to never derefer null to pass argument (mainly in RNA).
In addition, one pointer argument now actually a return type.
By-reference return types instead of pointers going to be separate kind of
change since also imply of cleaning up variables created from reference.
Also good future improvement would be to mark a copy-constructor as
explicit for DNA node types.

Keeping these as linked datablocks to the brush does not match the idea
that assets should generally be appended, and leads to some confusing
situations with linked materials on objects. Now use either a local
material with matching weak library reference or make a local copy if
it does not exist yet.
This also add weak library references to the materials in the 2D Animation
template, so they will be reused.
A problem is that weak library references include a full path to assets
blend files, including the Blender version for the essentials assets files.
This means weak library references do not work across platforms and
Blender versions.
Another known limitation is that if the (linked) Brush Asset material is
edited, and there is already a local copy of it, this local copy will
remain unchanged and will be used by future strokes as well.

As announced in <LINK_TO_DEVTALK_POST> (*[proposed post](https://hackmd.io/@s3W_pRGTTXie8cKWRitZrA/S1SzUhqIkl)*), Big Endian support will be
fully removed from Blender 5.0.
This commit adds deprecation warning when opening such blendfiles, and a
static `#warning` when building on a Big-Endian system.
Implements 4.5-part of #125759.
Previously we generally expected CustomData layers to have implicit
sharing info, but we didn't require it. This PR clarifies that we do
require layers with non-null data to have implicit sharing info. This
generally makes code simpler because we don't have to have a separate
code path for non-shared layers. For example, it makes the "totelem"
arguments for layer freeing functions unnecessary, since shared data
knows how to free itself. Those arguments are removed in this PR.

The "Red Alert" color is currently hard-coded, which causes problems in
themes. It also has an Enum value of 0, which precludes using this
value as "unset". We also use Error, Warning, and Info colors that are
part of the Info Editor. This PR moves these out of the Info Editor
and into the "State" part of the theme. And then makes TH_REDALERT use
the TH_ERROR color.

This replaces the `set_listbasepointers` function with `BKE_main_lists_get`
which returns an array of `ListBase *`. This simplifies the caller a bit. In
some cases, it can be simplifed further by changing the order in which we iterate
over the listbase. For historical reasons, we iterate from the back to front in
most cases but sometimes the order does not matter. I did keep the iteration order
in this patch though, to avoid regressions.

Move `Library.runtime` to be a pointer, move the related
`LibraryRuntime` struct to `BKE_library.hh`. Similar to e.g.
Mesh.runtime, that pointer is expected to always be valid, and is
allocated at readtime or when creating a new Library ID.
Related smaller changes:
* Write code now uses standard ID writing codepath for Library IDs too.
* Runtime pointer is reset to nullptr before writing.
* Looking up a library by its absolute path is now handled through a
dedicated utils, `search_filepath_abs`, instead of using
`BLI_findstring`.

Note: this is a back-port from `main`, details below,
Original message:
Add support for dynamic NDOF orbit center calculation.
- When "Auto" NDOF preference is enabled:
All visible objects in the viewport are used to calculate a
bounding box center, if the bounds are outside the view or the center
is behind the viewport, use a Z-Buffer test to calculate the depth in
the middle of the region.
- When "Use Selected Items" NDOF preferences is enabled,
calculating the bounds from the selection.
- An option to show the orbit center as a guide has also been added.

Currently UI code always has to use char pointers when interacting with
the translation system. This makes benefiting from the use C++ strings
and StringRef more difficult. That means we're leaving some type safety
and performance on the table. This PR adds StringRef overloads to the
translation API functions and removes the few calls to `.c_str()` that
are now unnecessary.

Blender crashes when appending a Bloom node. This is because the scene
is needed to infer the render size while versioning, and the scene
doesn't exist while appending, so we need to fallback to a default
render size in those cases.
Also adds a new `BLO_readfile_id_runtime_tags_for_write` accessor to
ensure readfile data is created before assigning a tag value.
Followup to 2ec1b6887d. Should cover the last existing ID tags that
can be moved to temp runtime readfile ID data.
This reverts commit aff2cf97a1, and re-apply 2612b27e42 fix the issue

Artists often want to quickly switch back and forth between two or more nodes while compositing.
This patch implements two operators `NODE_OT_viewer_shortcut_set` and `NODE_OT_viewer_shortcut_get` that allow users to map a viewer node to a shortcut. For example, pressing `cltr+1` while a node is selected, assigns that node to the shortcut `1`, creates a viewer node if it has none attached and sets that viewer node to active. Pressing `1` will set the active node with shortcut `1` to active.
Shortcuts are saved in DNA to preserve them after saving/loading blend files.
Limitations:
- Only compositor node tree is supported, because shading editor has no viewer node and geometry nodes viewer works differently.

Blender crashes when appending a node group containing a Glare node from
older versions. That's because the Glare node is versioned taking the
scene resolution into account, and in case of appending a node group,
there is associated scene, and accessing a nullptr scene causes the
crash.
To fix this, assume some default resolution in cases where the node
can't be associated with a scene.
This adds a debugging utility for developers that makes it easier to what's
stored in a .blend file. Some possible use cases:
* Figure out if some specific data has been written to the .blend file.
* Check the order of data in the .blend file.
* Work towards having less runtime dependent changes in .blend files (it's
easier to diff the textual output).
It is **not** a goal to provide a general human and machine readable form of
.blend files (like xml/json files). That would be way more involved.
The way to use this is to set `GENERATE_DEBUG_BLEND_FILE` to `1` at the top of
`writefile.cc`. Then, whenever Blender saves a .blend file, it will generate a
`.debug.txt` file next to it.
There is already `blend2json.py` which serves a similar purpose but is a
separate program that can be executed on the .blend file afterwards. With the
`--full-data` flag it outputs comparable data, but the output is a bit more
verbose and it needs an extra step that can be avoided by generating the
`.debug.txt` file immediately. For certain use cases,
`GENERATE_DEBUG_BLEND_FILE` can be more convenient. It's also much simpler to
add log additional data in that file that is produced during the blend-write
process.

This patch uses OCIO luminance for implicit conversion from color to
float in the compositor. This is done to match other node systems, and
because luminance is a much better default than the average formula used
before.
Versioning was added to retain average conversion for old files.

Reason for this is that all the brushes in essentials assets have a zero
default `mask_stencil_pos` / `mask_stencil_dimension`.
At that time, they have been created resetting a brush to defaults and
using that as a starting point.
At that time though, these settings didnt have a default (which
b2dd308dca fixed, so that method should not result in those settings
being zero).
The brushes in essentials assets still do though, now correct these in
versioning code.

This PR adds new RNA properties that deprecate and replace any `sequence` property.
The old prooperties are still there and fully functional, but the description is changed
to indicate that these will be removed in the future and that the new properties should
be used instead.
| Deprecated property | Replacement property |
| --------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| `context.active_sequence_strip` | `context.active_strip` |
| `context.selected_editable_sequences` | `context.selected_editable_strips` |
| `context.selected_sequences` | `context.selected_strips` |
| `context.sequences` | `context.strips` |
| `SequenceEditor.sequences` | `SequenceEditor.strips` |
| `SequenceEditor.sequences_all` | `SequenceEditor.strips_all` |
| `MetaStrip.sequences` | `MetaStrip.strips` |
Previously, rna paths for animation data on strips started with `sequence_editor.sequences`.
This PRadds versioning for the rna paths to make sure to use
the new naming scheme. This does mean that in previous versions of blender,
the animations don't show but the data is not lost (even if the file is saved in the older version).
Also do some cleanup of existing python scripts inside the source to use the
new properties.
Part of #132963.

Previously, when evaluated on the face corner domain, the normal input
node just returned the face normals, as if the mesh was completely flat
shaded. This ignores face and edge smoothness, and custom face corner
normals. In the past couple years the expected behavior of accessing
normals has become much clearer and this behavior is clearly a mistake
in retrospect.
This commit exposes the same face corner normals used everywhere else
in Blender when the node is evaluated on the corner domain. The old
behavior is accessible with a node property in the sidebar. There is
versioning so old files have the property set and get the same results.
This is split from !132583.
