This PR does two things:
- Creates new panel in theme preferences called "Common" that
doesn't belong to any editor
- Moves "Preview Range" property in common, and removes it
from animation editors.
Now, there is a single theme property for preview range, rather
than 5 for each animation editor.

This PR removes the "Last Resort" font from the stack. Instead uses a
custom "not def" glyph, defined as an SVG file. This glyph is shown
when requesting a character not found for text inputs, text editor, and
for Sequencer text strips.

Only the assets/publish folder was moved in #137219, which broke the
`make icons_geom` command for generating toolbar icons since the
submodule is now gone.
This patch moves the icons folder into a new
`release/datafiles/icons_blend` folder and updates
`blender_icons_geom_update.py` to fix the problem.

HDR video files are properly read into Blender, and can be rendered out
of Blender.
HDR video reading / decoding:
- Two flavors of HDR are recognized, based on color related video
metadata: "PQ" (Rec.2100 Perceptual Quantizer, aka SMPTE 2084) and
"HLG" (Rec.2100 Hybrid-Log-Gamma, aka ARIB STD B67). Both are read
effectively into floating point images, and their color space
transformations are done through OpenColorIO.
- The OCIO config shipped in Blender has been extended to contain
Rec.2100-PQ and Rec.2100-HLG color spaces.
- Note that if you already had a HDR video in sequencer or movie clip,
it would have looked "incorrect" previously, and it will continue to
look incorrect, since it already has "wrong" color space assigned to
it. Either re-add it (which should assign the correct color space),
or manually change the color space to PQ or HLG one as needed.
HDR video writing / encoding"
- For H.265 and AV1 the video encoding options now display the HDR mode.
Similar to reading, there are PQ and HLG HDR mode options.
- Reference white is assumed to be 100 nits.
- YUV uses "full" ("PC/jpeg") color range.
- No mastering display metadata is written into the video file, since
generally that information is not known inside Blender.

This PR just updates the SVG sources for the "Edit" and "Paint" cursors
so that at 1X scale on a standard DPI monitor they match better with
the prior versions. Size, contrast, and visual weight should be very
close.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/141630
This PR does four things, and shouldn't have visible impact to users.
* Use fewer decimal places for D65 white point, to match e.g. sRGB and
Rec.2020 standards.
* Fix mistake in grayscale matrix for Grayscale look and False Color view
transform.
* Remove unused luminance_compensation_srgb/p3
* Improve AgX Log's matrix comment

This PR replaces our current custom mouse cursors (defined in
wm_cursors.cc using bitmaps and masks that we edit with a python
program) with SVG sources that are rasterized at the exact size when
needed. For Windows this would also replace the 29 platform-specific
"cur" files, although this PR does not actually remove those. For Linux
this creates the same kind of cursor as now (1bpp XBitMap) but at a
better size.

The theme property for group socket nodes was set to `#000000` for
default themes, which looked out of place against the other node
header colors. This patch adds colors to both the Blender Dark & Light
themes that should resemble their counterparts before 2ea3cd2188.
Colors:
Blender Dark - `#1d1d1d`
Blender Light - `#3d3d3d`

Recently, panel styling was moved to a global setting instead of being
per-editor. However, the panel's title and labels inside still rely on
the per-editor region's text and title settings.
Move panel title and text colors to the global "Panel" settings.

Move the styling of sidebar/toolbar regions away from common editor
settings into its own section, so styling can be enabled only in the
editors that actually have these regions.

At the moment, only menus and tooltips have a shadow. However, other
elements can benefit from having a shadow. This PR adds shadows to
panels in overlapped regions. Makes the default shadow size slightly
larger, but less opaque so it's not so prominent. While dragging a
panel this makes the shadow larger for a "floating" effect.

Remove barely used theme settings for "Navigation Bar" and
"Execution Region".
These properties were only used in two areas, which already had a good
candidate to be replaced with.
Visually it should look exactly the same by default.

Make node headers (or body when collapsed) use the exact theme color
set for that node type, instead of a hardcoded blend between it and the
node backdrop.
This can result in unreadable combinations, but allows more
flexibility and it is consistent with the rest of Blender.
Both dark and light theme defaults have been updated.

Clarify the terms for NDOF translation & rotation sensitivity.
Previously translation was named: "ndof_sensitivity" making it
sound like it would control rotation as well.
Move panel header, panel background, and sub-panel background color
settings to be global, under `User Interface`, like other widgets.
Remove per-editor panel styling. This way users can edit the panel
colors once, and affect all panels.

Make sidebar tabs use the `wcol_tab` widget colors, instead per editor
settings. Simplifying theme tweaking and the following benefits:
* Set colors in one place, affect all tabs.
* Support for text colors for inactive and active tabs.
* Support for the new `Outline Selected` property.
* In the future sidebar tabs could support `Shaded` style.
The tabs region background color remains per-editor, to be able to
customize it in a way that fits the surrounding colors (sidebar region,
header, or navigation bar background).

This commit implements #125759.
It removes:
* Blender does not build on big endian systems anymore.
* Support for opening blendfiles written from a big endian system is
removed.
It keeps:
* Support to generate thumbnails from big endian blendfiles.
* BE support in `extern` or `intern` libraries, including Cycles.
* Support to open big endian versions of third party file formats:
- PLY files.
- Some image files (cineon, ...).

Allow theming the outline of selected elements. This helps to make
active elements more prominent, and allows for flat theme combinations
not possible before.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/139850
This patch removes the older handle selection and transformation logic,
which was accessible through user preferences by switching off the
default "simple tweaking" mode in Editing -> Video Sequencer.
There was some initial bugginess with the new handle behavior, hence
the option to revert to legacy mode, but with recent updates this no
longer applies. With the new system, all selection workflows
are still possible -- this just drops older code to make things simpler.
No functional changes intended.

The tabs in the sidebar are aligned to the content, which looks great
when region overlap is off, but when it isn't, it looks like the tabs
are attaching to nothing. Solve this by drawing sidebar tabs as pills,
when using region overlap. This matches the top-bar workspace tabs.

This allows to reduce the waiting time caused by
shader compilation on some GPU-driver combo.
A new settings in the User Preferences make it
possible to override the default amount of worker
threads and optionally use subprocesses.
We still use only one worker thread in cases where
there is no benefit with adding more workers
(like AMD pro driver and Intel windows).
It doesn't scale as much as subprocesses for material
shader compilation but that is for other reasons
explained in #139818.
Add some heuristic to avoid too much memory usage
and / or too many stalls.
Also add some heuristic to the default number of subprocess for
the platform that shows scalling.
Historically, multithreaded compilation was prevented by the
need of context per thread inside `DRWShader` module.
Also there was no good scaling at that time. But
nowadays numbers shows different results with
good scaling with reasonable amount of threads on many
platforms.
Even if we are going for vulkan in the next release
most of the legacy hardware will still use OpenGL for
a few other releases. So it is relevant to make this
easy improvement.
See pull request for measurements.

- Navigation modes has been redefined a bit and introduced in a form of
an enum so that new ones can me implemented in the future.
Additionally switching between modes shouldn't require any additional
configurations like inverting all the axes.
Currently there are only 2 modes implemented,
but 2 more are planned and will be proposed in follow-up PRs.
Implemented modes are:
- Object: works like "Orbit" option.
but has all axes implicitly inverted
- Fly: works the same as "Free".
- "Turntable" option has been turned into "Lock Horizon".
This single option works for both normal navigation and Fly/Walk
modes now.
- Pan and Rotation axes inversion has been removed from default
configuration.
- UI has been simplified following the design from #136880.
- Zoom Invert has been removed since it looks like a duplication of
`NDOF_PANZ_INVERT`.

Overall the goal of the PR is to show the preview range in the
clip editor's dopesheet and graph mode.
To accomplish this, some cleanup and refactor were needed:
- Clip editor had a nearly 1:1 copy paste of the timeline draw code,
which has been replaced with `ANIM_draw_framerange`.
- Preview range draw code required `bContext`, which was only used to
access scene. Now scene is passed explicitly, without need to know the
context.
- The macro to access the preview range was removed. This is because the
code is within `PRVRANGEON` check, so `PSFRA`/`PEFRA` were doing
redundant checks.

Rework internals of how VSE caching is done. Primarily to make all the
caching logic more understandable from development point of view, but
also has several user visible implications (more details in the PR):
- Simpler and fewer caching UI options,
- Disk cache is gone (primary reason: proxies are kinda the same thing),
- VSE cache size set in preferences is actual size used for VSE caches
now (previously caching stopped as soon as whole Blender used that
much memory, even if some memory usage was not about VSE at all),
- Certain scenarios of cache invalidation are faster now.

This change moves the tests data files and publish folder of assets
repository to the main blender.git repository as LFS files.
The goal of this change is to eliminate toil of modifying tests,
cherry-picking changes to LFS branches, adding tests as part of a
PR which brings new features or fixes.
More detailed explanation and conversation can be found in the
design task.

Adjust the height of the remove icon SVG to match the add icon, ensuring consistent sizing across UI elements.
This resolves alignment issues when pairing SVG icons with text or font-based elements. A height of 1100px was chosen to vertically center the icon cleanly in Blender's UI without introducing fractional pixel offsets.
No visual differences are expected in Blender.

Even though the default startup already has `Trusted Source` and
`Auto Run Python Scripts` off by default, when resetting their values
to default (right click, Reset to Default) they would be turned on.
It was simply missing explicitly setting this off by default.

The gaps between editors need to be selected and manipulated in order
to resize areas. How wide these need to be depends on the accuracy and
resolution of your pointing device. And also on the fine motor control
and visual acuity of the user. If you are using a tablet pen, touch
device, or are visually or physically challenged, then you need these
gaps to be wider. This PR allows a wide latitude in this.

This implements bundles and closures which are described in more detail in this
blog post: https://code.blender.org/2024/11/geometry-nodes-workshop-october-2024/
tl;dr:
* Bundles are containers that allow storing multiple socket values in a single
value. Each value in the bundle is identified by a name. Bundles can be
nested.
* Closures are functions that are created with the Closure Zone and can be
evaluated with the Evaluate Closure node.
To use the patch, the `Bundle and Closure Nodes` experimental feature has to be
enabled. This is necessary, because these features are not fully done yet and
still need iterations to improve the workflow before they can be officially
released. These iterations are easier to do in `main` than in a separate branch
though. That's because this patch is quite large and somewhat prone to merge
conflicts. Also other work we want to do, depends on this.
This adds the following new nodes:
* Combine Bundle: can pack multiple values into one.
* Separate Bundle: extracts values from a bundle.
* Closure Zone: outputs a closure zone for use in the `Evaluate Closure` node.
* Evaluate Closure: evaluates the passed in closure.
Things that will be added soon after this lands:
* Fields in bundles and closures. The way this is done changes with #134811, so
I rather implement this once both are in `main`.
* UI features for keeping sockets in sync (right now there are warnings only).
One bigger issue is the limited support for lazyness. For example, all inputs of
a Combine Bundle node will be evaluated, even if they are not all needed. The
same is true for all captured values of a closure. This is a deeper limitation
that needs to be resolved at some point. This will likely be done after an
initial version of this patch is done.

Rather than continuing to use ICON_TEMP, meant to represent temporary
locations, this PR adds a specific one - ICON_PREVIEW_LOADING - for
this purpose. Just a copy of ICON_TEMP for now, but with all parts at
40% opacity, matching how we use it now. Not only gives us an icon we
can later change, but also removes our special handling of reducing
opacity for one icon id.

This PR adds three SVG Icons. One to represent that an icon is not
found - ICON_NOT_FOUND - so represent when an out-of-range value was
used to specify an icon. The second - ICON_CHAR_NOTDEF - is to
represent that a text character is not found in the specified font or
font stack. The third - ICON_CHAR_REPLACEMENT - is to indicate the
portion of a text string that contains invalid bytes.
