The motivation is to keep backward compatibility after deprecating
`material.use_nodes()` and `world.use_nodes`. For example the
following script would behave the same way in 4.5 and 5.0:
```python
mat = bpy.data.materials.new("My new mat")
mat.use_nodes = True
```

Adds a Join Bundle node with a multi-input Bundle socket. Bundles are
iterated on the top level of each input bundle and items added to the resulting
single bundle. While creating the final bundle existing items have priority and
new items with an already existing name are discarded.
There is an info message when there are duplicate keys in the input bundles.

Since adding this TODO, the panels can be shown from the tool-header,
properties editor & active tools tab, so there isn't a good reason to
move them to space_view3d.py. Remove the TODO comments instead.
Similar to 327a1925cf
* Renames `strength_curve` to `curve_distance_falloff`
* Renames `curve_preset` to `curve_distance_falloff_preset`
These changes are done for consistency with the other concepts in the
other paint modes.

Currently, attempting to split connected strips that are not both
selected means that only one of the strips are affected. This violates
the "connected" principle, so this PR makes the split operator propagate
the split to connected strips by default. Holding alt returns old
behavior (ignores connections), similar to selection logic.

Remove the operators to convert a legacy pose library (from Blender 2.93
and older) to the current system (introduced in Blender 3.0).
The removal is mostly because the pose markers do not play well with
slotted Actions. The conversion code was never updated for those, and by
now it's easier to remove them than to update the code to the current
data model.
Technically it was still possible to create a legacy pose library (an
Action with pose markers) in current versions of Blender, and then use
this operator to convert that to a modern pose library. I don't know of
anybody doing that, though.

Use the current Action API (i.e. move away from the to-be-deleted-in-5.0
one) to import and export F-Curves from/to FBX files.
There is a slight difference in functionality for the exporter, in the
selection of which Actions to export for the "All Actions" option. This
is just a minimal change to ensure the legacy API is no longer used.
Old: `action.fcurves` was iterated, and if all FCurves could resolve to
existing properties, the Action was exported. This would only work
reliably for single-slotted Actions, due to the use of the deprecated
`action.fcurves` property.
New: the above check is done for each Channelbag in the Action. The
first Channelbag that match the above check is exported. This does _not_
export all suitable channelbags; it merely improves on the old behaviour
slightly. The new, C++-based FBX exporter is more feature-complete in
this regard.
This is part of #146586
The changes:
1. Add `group_name` to the `channelbag.fcurves.new()` and
`action.fcurve_ensure_for_datablock()` RNA functions.
2. Add `anim_utils.action_ensure_channelbag_for_slot(action, slot)`.
3. Add `channelbag.fcurves.ensure()` RNA function.
This makes it possible to replace this legacy code:
```py
fcurve = action.fcurves.new("location", index=2, action_group="Name")
```
with this code:
```py
channelbag = action_ensure_channelbag_for_slot(action, action_slot)
fcurve = channelbag.fcurves.new("location", index=2, group_name="Name")
```
or replace this legacy code:
```py
fcurve = action.fcurves.find("location", index=2, action_group="Name")
if not fcurve:
fcurve = action.fcurves.new("location", index=2, action_group="Name")
```
with this code:
```py
channelbag = action_ensure_channelbag_for_slot(action, action_slot)
fcurve = channelbag.fcurves.ensure("location", index=2, group_name="Name")
```
Note that the parameter name is different (`action_group` became
`group_name`). This clarifies that this is the name of the group, and
not a reference to the group itself.

The issue was that the used operator just took the active node into account.
However, clicking in empty space does not make the active node inactive.
Therefore, sometimes clicking on empty space would sometimes remove enter the
last selected group node. Furthermore, double clicking on other nodes may also
trigger exiting the current group.
This is fixed by introducing a new operator that explicitly checks what node is
hovered.

Node wrangler has a "delete unused nodes" operator that will delete
nodes that do not contribute to the output of the node network.
Warning nodes, don't contribute to the output of the geometry nodes,
but it does output information to the Geometry nodes UI. So warning
nodes should still be considered nodes that contribute to the output.
This commit adds warning nodes to the list of nodes that contribute
to the output to avoid them being deleted by the "delete unused nodes"
operator.

The Node Wrangler addon has a _Reset Nodes_ operator that can remove the input
node of a node zone. This crashes in reference set updates because the code
expects valid input/output node pairs in each zone.
The fix is two-fold:
1. Finding zones for the runtime now returns an empty result to ensure no
invalid node pointers are being accessed. This should not happen in practice,
all operators should make sure zone relationships are not broken.
2. The node wrangler addon is updated to ignore all zone types, including the
newer repeat, closure, and for-each-element zones. The type filtering was
outdated and now uses the `bl_idname` consistently.

Fix: correctly update Actions when renaming/re-typing a custom property
When renaming a custom property on a data-block, only update the
animation in a slot for that data-block. Previously all F-Curves were
updated, even when they were meant for other data-blocks.
This also handles the cases where the type of a custom property is
changed, and not just its name.

Toggles the new `show_presets` option on for the recently added brush
size, strength, and jitter curves across paint modes to allow users
to set these custom curves to any of the defined internal presets.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/147000
To support setting the custom `CurveMapping` to a well defined preset,
there exist a number of operators that are hardcoded to apply a
particular preset to a particular curve.
This commit begins to replace this functionality and make it part of the
template itself, allowing the preset to be applied to any curve. For
now, it only supports either positive or negative slopes, primarily for
the brush usecases.
The `brush.curve_preset` and `brush.sculpt_curves_falloff_preset`
operators are unneeded after this change and have been removed.
Notably, these preset controls have not been added elsewhere, they can
be added on a case by case basis in future commits by interested
modules.

This adds three corner types: `Round` `Sharp` and `Flat`.
These control how the corner of `Grease Pencil` line strokes are rendered.
- The `Round` type draws circular arcs, and is what `Grease Pencil`
currently supports and is default.
- The `Flat` type cuts off the tip of the corner.
- The `Sharp` type allows for sharp corners to be created.
If the angle is sharper than `Miter Limit` then the tip will be cut like `Flat`
These three types match the main types of `line joins` present in `SVG`
files.
This data is stored in one `Point` attribute called `miter_angle`.
This stores both the `Corner Type`, the `Miter Limit` and defaults to
the `Round` type.
This PR adds:
- Rendering of the corner types.
- An operator for setting the `Corner Type` and `Miter Angle` attribute.
- Corner types to the `Outline` operator and modifier.

This implements the Menu Switch node in shader nodes. It's the same node that is
used in Geometry Nodes and the Compositor.
The Menu Switch node is purely handled during preprocessing and thus builds on
top of #141936. Hence, it's input has to be a single value, just like the
iteration count for repeat zones. This limitation can be lifted in the future,
but currently there is no way to produce a non-single menu value in shader
nodes. This will become possible if other Switch nodes are added though.

Since 1122a05cb6 tool settings could return None, but we do not check this
consistently in scripts. Now always return some tool settings, since it's difficult
to verify and easy to forget proper null checks in e.g. operator poll functions.
The sequencer UI code was updated to continue showing tool settings only when
there is a sequencer scene.

This adds a new operator which can join multiple nodes together. Currently, it
only supports joining Group Input nodes. However, in the future it could be
extended to join e.g. Bake and Capture Attribute nodes.
This uses the recently freed up ctrl+J shortcut for this functionality, which
feels natural to me.
The implementation is fairly straight forward. The main tricky aspect is
sometimes the nodes can't be joined when that would result in two sockets being
linked to each other twice. In this case, the a separate Group Input node is
kept.
The selected nodes are merged into the active node (in case the active node is
part of the selection, otherwise there is a fallback).

In 3D Viewport theme settings there is "Active Spline" property, which behaves weirdly.
Color of that property is multiplied to color of curve handles. Even though it says active,
it's multiplied in selected and unselected states, for all curves all the time.
That doesn't make much sense, has no real value, and ends up only causing confusion.
Having this property on anything but pure black means that whatever colors you choose
for curve handles in Preferences isn't actually what you're getting them. If color is set to
high-saturation color it completely washes away all colors and makes it difficult to differentiate
between handle types.
I think there is no reason for this property to exist, so this PR just removes that property.

This new translation context is for some special cases when
translation cannot be avoided, for example in an interface where some
props are built-in (translatable) and others are
user-defined (non-translatable), but we don't know which ones in
advance.
It allows specifying explicitly that translation should not occur
for user data when building the UI.
It is a followup to !145963, in which the context was introduced as a
string literal instead of a defined context.
Node sockets could already be declared using:
```cpp
add_input<decl::<SOCKET TYPE>>("NAME")
```
They can now additionally be declared with:
```cpp
add_input(socket_type, "NAME")
```
This commit adds the later form to the message extraction regex. Since
they are mutually exclusive, they are now in a non-capturing group
with an | operator.
Reported by Ye Gui in #43295.
This extracts the names and descriptions for displays, views, and
colorspaces. They are all used in the different parts of the UI.
The views' descriptions are used for the displays'.
The extraction uses the built-in PyOpenColorIO module. This ensures
only data that is actually used is extracted (not ignored in the
config).
use_nodes is now deprecated in Blender 5.0

When trying to find and open an older file, it is annoying when it is not in the
recent files list anymore. This patch increases the length of the recent files
list, without making the menu huge by making better use of menu-search.
Specifically the following is changed: * Number of remembered recent files is
increased from 20 to 200 by default. * The recent files menu is limited to 20
entries. * When activating menu search (by pressing space when in the menu), all
available recent files can be searched. * There is a new "More..." menu entry at
the bottom, which also activates the menu search.

Calling the swap operators can result in Blender crashing. From my
testing, the behavior is inconsistent, as sometimes a crash is triggered
and other times it isn't. Though notably, they seem involve nodes
already linked to other nodes, or zones.
The crashing stems from the operators trying to access deleted data.
There were two places where this happens that were identified, one
involving removed links and the other involving removed nodes.

The Mix node has multiple subtypes for handling different data types. (Float, Color, Vector, etc.)
Since these are commonly used operations, the different subtypes are made easily accessible
under the names "Mix Color" & "Mix Vector". These are mostly present in the various node
editors. (Shader, Geometry, & Compositing)
Notably, for Shader Nodes, however, only the "Mix Color" entry is present in the Add Menu.
This patch adds the missing "Mix Vector" entry under the "Vector" category of the
Shader Editor Add Menu.
