This should be purely an implementation change,
for end users there should be no functional difference.
The entire key configuration is in one file with ~5000 lines of code.
Mostly avoiding code duplication and preserve comments and utility
functions from the C code.
It's a bit long but for searching and editing it's also convenient to
have it all in one file.
Notes:
- Actual keymap is shared by blender / blender_legacy
and stored in `keymap_data/blender_default.py`
This only generates JSON-like data to be passed into
`keyconfig_import_from_data`, allowing other presets to load and
manipulate the default keymap.
- Each preset defines 'keyconfig_data'
which can be shared between presets.
- Some of the utility functions for generating keymap items still
need to be ported over to Python.
- Some keymap items can be made into loops (marked as TODO).

That kind of implicit includes should really only be done when totally,
absolutely necessary, and ideally only with rather simple 'second-level'
headers.
Otherwise not being explicit with includes always end up biting in
unexpected ways...
Cursor motion was often causing redraws.
Distance to scrollbars that don't exist in hidden regions
caused redraws (for alpha fading).
Check if scrollbars are used before calculating fade.
* Area and Workspace duplicate.
* Toggle Area Fullscreen
* Operator Search
* Workspace reorder to front/back (arrows help to know which direction means front/back)
This will probably be a temporary solution to fill empty space, for until we
have a search button there. Hence, I made this optional using a compile flag.
Moves the Properties editor context switching to a vertical tabs region.
Design Task: T54951
Differential Revison: D3840
The tabs are regular widgets, unlike the 'old' toolshelf tabs. This means they
give mouse hover feedback, have tooltips, support the right-click menu, etc.
Also, when vertical screen space gets tight, the tabs can be scrolled, they
don't shrink like the toolshelf ones.
The tab region is slightly larger than the header. The tabs are scaled up
accordingly. This makes them nicely readable.
The header is quite empty now. As shown in T54951, we wanted to have a search
button there. This should be added next.
Implementation Notes:
* Added a new region type, RGN_TYPE_NAVIGATION.
* Having the tabs in a separate region allows scrolling of the tab-bar, unlike
the toolshelf tabs. We might want to remove the scrollbars though.
* Added a new region flag RGN_FLAG_PREFSIZE_OR_HIDDEN, to ensure the tab region
is either hidden or has a fixed size.
* Added some additional flags to support fine-tuning the layout in panel and
layout code.
* Bumps subversion.
With the new automatic handle algorithm, it is possible to do a lot
of the animation via keyframes without touching the curves. It is
however necessary to change the keyframe interpolation and handle
types in certain cases. Currently the dopesheet/action editor
allows changing the types, but does not show them in any way.
To fix, add a new menu option to display this information. For handle
type, it is represented using the shape of the key icons: diamond for
Free, clipped diamond for Aligned, square for Vector, circle for Auto
Clamp, and cirle with dot for Automatic.
Non-bezier interpolation is a property of intervals between keys,
so it is marked by drawing lines, similar to holds. In this initial
version, only the fact of non-bezier interpolation is displayed,
without distinguishing types. For summaries, the line is drawn at
half alpha if not all curves in the group are non-bezier.
In addition, it is sometimes helpful to know the general direction
of change of the curve, and which keys are extremes. This commit
also adds an option to highlight extremes, based on comparing the
keyed values with adjacent keys. Half-intensity display is used
for overshot bezier extremes, or non-uniform summaries.

When a .blend file is dropped into Blender a small menu opens.
In that menu the user can choose between three options: Open, Link and Append.

For now only `selected_pose_bones_from_active_object`, more options can
be added on demand.
Discussed this with Campbell Barton. We may need this only for selected
pose bones, time will tell.
Computation of hold blocks was done by storing ranges (with start and
an end, and likely overlapping) in a tree keyed only by the block start.
This cannot work well, and there even were comments that it is not
reliable in complex cases.
A much better way to deal with it is to split all ranges so they don't
overlap. The most thorough way of doing this is to split at all and every
known keyframe, and in this case the data can actually be stored in the
key column data structures, avoiding the need for a second tree.
In practice, splitting requires a pass to copy this data to newly added
keys, and the necessity to loop over all keyframes in the range being
added. Both are linear and don't add excess algorithmic complexity.
The new implementation also calls BLI_dlrbTree_linkedlist_sync for
its own needs, so the users of the *_to_keylist functions don't have
to do it themselves anymore.

The goal here is to make app templates usable for default templates
that we can ship with Blender. These only have a custom startup.blend
currently and so are quite limited compared to app templates that fully
customize Blender.
But still it seems like the same kind of concept where we should be
sharing the code and UI. It is useful to be able to save a startup.blend
per template, and I can imagine some scripting being useful in the future
as well.
Changes made:
* File > New and Ctrl+N now list the templates, replacing a separate
Application Templates menu that was not as easy to discover.
* File menu now shows name of active template above Save Startup File
and Load Factory Settings to indicate these are saved/loaded per
template.
* The "Default" template was renamed to "General".
* Workspaces can now be added from any of the template startup.blend
files when clicking the (+) button in the topbar.
* User preferences are now fully shared between app templates, unless
the template includes a custom userpref.blend. I think this will be
useful in general, not all app templates need their own keymaps for
example.
* Previously Save User Preferences would save the current app template
and then Blender would start using that template by default. I've
disabled this, to me it seems it was unintentional, or at least not
clear at all that saving user preferences also makes the current

In the workspace properties a mode can now be configured that is
automatically enabled when switching to the workspace.
This is a test to validate how well it works. The weak point is
that if you don't have an appropriate object already select it will
not switch modes.
See T56475.
This is quite confusing in the current UI, with both startup.blend and
workspaces.blend containing a list of workspaces. In practice you'd usually
want to save workspaces to both files.
The downside of having a single file may be that you then can't disable
certain workspaces by default, but we could add a setting for that.
