Auto-save currently only really works in modes that use the `MemFile` undo step,
that excludes things like mesh edit and sculpt mode. Previously, Blender would
attempt to auto-save in those modes, but it would only save the last state from
before the mode was entered, which is useless when staying in the mode for longer.
This problem is *not* fixed here. However, the code now explicitly skips auto-saving
in order to avoid unnecessary short freezes in these modes when Blender auto-saves.
Furthermore, the auto-save will now happen when changing modes.
This reduces the impact of save-time-regressions with #106903.

The depsgraph CoW mechanism is a bit of a misnomer. It creates an
evaluated copy for data-blocks regardless of whether the copy will
actually be written to. The point is to have physical separation between
original and evaluated data. This is in contrast to the commonly used
performance improvement of keeping a user count and copying data
implicitly when it needs to be changed. In Blender code we call this
"implicit sharing" instead. Importantly, the dependency graph has no
idea about the _actual_ CoW behavior in Blender.
Renaming this functionality in the despgraph removes some of the
confusion that comes up when talking about this, and will hopefully
make the depsgraph less confusing to understand initially too. Wording
like "the evaluated copy" (as opposed to the original data-block) has
also become common anyway.

Relatively basic and straightforward implementation.
Further optimizations are possible (and needed), especially regarding
the handling of caches.
Notes:
* All drawings are stored in each undo step. This is needed (also for
Reference drawings), in case some drawings are added, removed or
re-ordered between undo steps.
* The whole tree of layers is copied as-is, using the C++ classes copy
constructors, so they only handle what these constructors copy
(noticeably, the `Layer` copy constructor does not currently handles
masks?).
* The active layer pointer is stored and restored by its name.
* The layer customdata is also duplicated using standard `BKE_customdata`
API.

`UUID` generally stands for "universally unique identifier". The session identifier that
we use is neither universally unique, nor does it follow the standard. Therefor, the term
"session uuid" is confusing and should be replaced.
In #116888 we briefly talked about a better name and ended up with "session uid".
The reason for "uid" instead of "id" is that the latter is a very overloaded term in Blender
already.
This patch changes all uses of "uuid" to "uid" where it's used in the context of a
"session uid". It's not always trivial to see whether a specific mention of "uuid" refers
to an actual uuid or something else. Therefore, I might have missed some renames.
I can't think of an automated way to differentiate the case.
BMesh also uses the term "uuid" sometimes in a the wrong context (e.g. `UUIDFaceStepItem`)
but there it also does not mean "session uid", so it's *not* changed by this patch.

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.
With two or more windows, edit-mode undo assumed it was
possible to load the undo state into the current scene.
When multiple windows are used this is not always the case.
Edit-mode undo steps now store the scene used to create them
which is used to read undo data back into this scene
(when it's shown in a window). Otherwise the current context is used.
Previously, BKE level preview image code was in `BKE_icons.h` and `icons.hh`.
While these types are related, I always found this quite hard to navigate since
preview image stuff was just in the middle of icon functions. Plus, people
don't expect preview image functions in icon files, the relationship is not
obvious.
Instead, use focused files that make it easy to quickly navigate them
and see what they are dealing with.

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.
The cleanup of blenkernel last weeks , caused the house of cards to
collapse on top of bf_gpu's shader_builder, which is off by default
but used on a daily basis by the rendering team.
Given the fixes forward in #110394 ran into a ODR violation in OSL that
was hiding there for years, I don't see another way forward without
impeding the rendering teams productivity for "quite a while" as there
is no guarantee the OSL issue would be the end of it.
the only way forward appears to be back.

The problematic commit was 07fe6c5a57
as blenkernel links most of blender, it's a bit of a link order issue
magnet. Given all these commits stack, it's near impossible to revert
just that one without spending a significant amount of time resolving
merge conflicts. 99% of that work was automated, so easier to just
revert all of them, and re-do the work, than it is to deal with the
merge conflicts.

The Adjust Last Operation panel would attempt to use the main region,
even when the operator was initially executed in a different region.
This becomes an issue when the operator relies on context of the region.
For example the pose library gets the active asset from context, which
is only available in the region (e.g. asset shelf) displaying the
assets. In general it seems like redo should restore the region of
invocation.
This uses the region type from the initial operator call context to
lookup a region to restore on redo. While not completely bullet proof
(multiple regions of the same type may be present), this should mitigate
the issue quite a bit.
Required for #104831.

There's quite a few libraries that depend on dna_type_offsets.h
but had gotten to it by just adding the folder that contains it to
their includes INC section without declaring a dependency to
bf_dna in the LIB section.
which occasionally lead to the lib building before bf_dna and the
header being missing, while this generally gets fixed in CMake by
adding bf_dna to the LIB section of the lib, however until last
week all libraries in the LIB section were linked as INTERFACE so
adding it in there did not resolve the build issue.
To make things still build, we sprinkled add_dependencies wherever
we needed it to force a build order.
This diff :
Declares public include folders for the bf_dna target so there's
no more fudging the INC section required to get to them.
Removes all dna related paths from the INC section for all
libraries.
Adds an alias target bf:dna to signify it has been updated to
modern cmake
Declares a dependency on bf::dna for all libraries that require it
Removes (almost) all calls to add_dependencies for bf_dna
Future work:
Because of the manual dependency management that was done, there is
now some "clutter" with libs depending on bf_dna that realistically
don't. Example bf_intern_opencolorio itself has no dependency on
bf_dna at all, doesn't need it, doesn't use it. However the
dna include folder had been added to it in the past since bf_blenlib
uses dna headers in some of its public headers and
bf_intern_opencolorio does use those blenlib headers.
Given bf_blenlib now correctly declares the dependency on bf_dna
as public bf_intern_opencolorio will get the dna header directory
automatically from CMake, hence some cleanup could be done for
bf_intern_opencolorio
Because 99% of the changes in this diff have been automated, this diff
does not seek to address these issues as there is no easy way to
determine why a certain dependency is in place. A developer will have
to make a pass a this at some later point in time. As I'd rather not
mix automated and manual labour.
There are a few libraries that could not be automatically processed
(ie bf_blendthumb) that also will need this manual look-over.

Replace `typedef struct X {} X;` with `struct X {};`
In some cases the first and last name didn't match although this
is rarely useful, even a typo in some cases, e.g. TrachPathPoint.
This commit affects:
* Reading undo steps from memfile (aka 'Global Undo');
* Handling of UI IDs (WindowManager, Workspaces and Screens) when
opening a .blend file.
While no major changes are expected from a user PoV, there may be some
unexpected changes in rare edge-cases. None has been identified so far.
Undo step loading should be marginally faster (`setup_app_data` itself
is 2-3 times faster, as it does not do remapping anymore, which makes the
whole 'read undo step' process about 20% faster - but the most
time-consuming step on undo is the depsgraph processing, which remains
unchanged here).
This commit also solves some bugs (crashes) in some relatively uncommon
cases, like e.g. if the WM had an IDProperty pointing at an object and
UI is not loaded when opening a new .blend file with the 'Load UI' option
enabled (as in previous code on file opening WM ID would never be
remapped).
From a more technical side, this commit aims mainly at cleaning things
up, in preparation for the introduction of new 'no undo, no readfile'
type of handling (as part of the Brush Assets project):
- Prevent WM code from doing (too much) horrible ID 'management' on
its WM when opening a new file. It used to remove current WM from
the Main database, store it in a temporary own list, and then free
it itself...
- Trying to make the complex logic behind WM handling on file reading a
bit more easy to follow, at least way more documented in code.
- Keep the handling of 'IDs being re-used from old Main' in a single
place, as much as possible:
-- Readfile code itself in undo case (because it's more efficient,
and undo case is in a way simpler than actual .blend file
reading case). The whole `blo_lib_link_restore` block of code
is also removed.
-- (Mostly) setup_app_data code in actual file reading case.
- Sanitize the usage of the 'libmap' in readfile code in undo case
(waaaaay too many pointers were added there, which was hiding some
other issues in the related code, and potentially causing (in
rare cases) memory addresses collisions.
