UI would sometimes disappear with the Metal backend.
This occured in situations where there was only a single
GPUContext within a single GHOST window, meaning
the activation routine for the context was never run.
Context activation is required to ensure the backbuffer
was up to date upon resize. Otherwise, re-sizing the
window would cause the screen to turn grey as the
new drawables would not be rendered to.

- Prefix comments before members is used practically everywhere,
remove C99 syntax from inside comments.
- Replace double quotes with backticks for code styling.
For small confirmations that appear at mouse position, change the
position slightly so that the mouse pointer is less likely to obscure
the confirm button text.

Our splash screen rounds the top corners of the featured image. However
this requires an alpha channel, so an RGB image will not look rounded.
This PR just ensures a 32 plane count.

The current font style can be overridden with a input or other widget text style,
this change ensures that the right font style is set so `BLF_width` don't use a
overridden font text style.

Small operator confirmations get separate confirm and cancel buttons,
better descriptions and configurable confirm button text. But still
popup at cursor location and can be cancelled with mouse movement.

This commit adds the `SCULPT_OT_hide_show_lasso_gesture` and the
corresponding Lasso Hide tool.
* Exposes the selection type for both the lasso and box hide tools
as a option in the header
* Adds functionality into `sculpt_gesture.cc` for handling lasso
selections with the `Outside` selection type
For `SelectionType::Outside`, the current implementation opts to not
do any filtering on the PBVH node level due to cases where the node
is mostly covered by a single gesture.
Addresses one of the tools in #80390

For node tools, I would like to give the option of invoking the operator from the
menu, but waiting for a mouse click for the future "Mouse Position" node. Not
all node tools should do that though, and they all use the same operator type,
so it needs to depend on an operator callback. That's implemented here.

Now messages for loading the preferences are logged instead of printed,
with additional logging for the startup file.
Access with the argument --log "wm.files"
Custom command-line actions would print that the preferences were
loading which distracts from the commands output.
Regular blend files loading still prints a message.
Add support for add-ons to define commands using the new argument
`-c` or `--command`.
Commands behave as follows:
- Passing in a command enables background mode without the need to pass
in `--background`.
- All arguments following the command are passed to the command
(without the need to use the `--` argument).
- Add-ons can define their own commands via
`bpy.utils.register_cli_command` (see examples in API docs).
- Passing in `--command help` lists all available commands.
Ref !119115
"Own" (the adjective) cannot be used on its own. It should be combined
with something like "its own", "our own", "her own", or "the object's own".
It also isn't used separately to mean something like "separate".
Also, "its own" is correct instead of "it's own" which is a misues of the verb.
Over the last couple years (!) UI buttons have moved to derived classes,
meaning we don't need to use the same "a1" and "a2" variables to store
different information. At this point, that information is set specifically
by internal UI code, or functions like `UI_but_*_set`.
These values are only set to their default 0 values now (or -1 in some
non-meaningful cases). This commit removes the values from buttons
and removes the remaining a1 and a2 arguments from the UI API.
In many modes, Blender uses the `MemFile` undo step, which serializes all DNA
data in RAM almost as if writing a .blend file. For auto-save, Blender used to
write the last `MemFile` undo step to disk because that was faster serializing
all of DNA again. Furthermore, saving the `quit.blend` file when closing Blender
also used this.
This functionality is now removed in preparate for supporting implicit sharing
in the undo system (#106903). Auto-save and saving the quit.blend file now use
regular file saving.
The removal of this feature and its implications have also been discussed here:
https://devtalk.blender.org/t/remove-support-for-saving-memfile-undo-steps-as-blend-files-proposal/33544
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.

Operators that added themselves as modal handlers would crash if there
was a Python exception in the script before returning.
Now modal handlers are removed an exception occurs in exec & invoke
operator callbacks.
