With the end goal of simplifying ownership and memory management,
and allowing the use of `get_name` in contexts without statically
allocated strings, use `std::string` for the return values of these two
operator type callbacks instead of `const char *` and `char *`.
In the meantime things get uglier in some places. I'd expect `std::string`
to be used more in the future elsewhere in Blender though.

Renames `OB_MODE_EDIT_GPENCIL`, `OB_MODE_PAINT_GPENCIL`, `OB_MODE_SCULPT_GPENCIL`, `OB_MODE_WEIGHT_GPENCIL`, `OB_MODE_VERTEX_GPENCIL, and the context modes` to `*_LEGACY`.

Similar to 5f16e24cc9, this adds support for edit mode
to the point cloud object type, which is currently hidden behind an
experimental option. No interaction is possible yet, for now this
can be used as a testing for a node-group-operator-only mode.
A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:

Adds the initial stage for the grease pencil 3.0 project.
This patch includes:
* New ID and new object type.
* New DNA structures.
* New drawing engine for grease pencil (gpencil-next).
* Tests for the new grease pencil data-type.
* A few operators for conversion, switching modes and (simple) drawing.
Exposed to the user:
* An experimental option to switch to the new grease pencil.
* This will switch the grease pencil render engine to gpencil-next which can only render the new object type.
Current grease pencil objects will no longer render.
* Changing this option currently requires a restart of blender (for the keymap to update).
* A conversion setting in the `Object` > `Convert To` operator.
* A drawing operator in `Draw Mode`.

Refactoring mesh code, it has become clear that local cleanups and
simplifications are limited by the need to keep a C public API for
mesh functions. This change makes code more obvious and makes further
refactoring much easier.
- Add a new `BKE_mesh.hh` header for a C++ only mesh API
- Introduce a new `blender::bke::mesh` namespace, documented here:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Objects/Mesh#Namespaces
- Move some functions to the new namespace, cleaning up their arguments
- Move code to `Array` and `float3` where necessary to use the new API
- Define existing inline mesh data access functions to the new header
- Keep some C API functions where necessary because of RNA
- Move all C++ files to use the new header, which includes the old one
In the future it may make sense to split up `BKE_mesh.hh` more, but for
now keeping the same name as the existing header keeps things simple.
