The label was hidden explicitly when saving changes wouldn't be
possible. But this was done for an earlier design iteration where there
would be a button to save changes, not just a label as indicator. The
indicator should always be shown when applicable.
Part of overall #118493 task: video input/output support at 10 and 12
bit/component formats. (note: this is still LDR videos just at higher
precision; there's no HDR handling (yet)).
Movie reading/playback: when movie file pixel format has >8 bit
components, decode those into a floating point ImBuf result. Previously
all movies were decoded into 8 bit/channel ImBufs, so 10- and 12-bit
movie pixel colors were getting quantized.
Movie output: when ffmpeg video with suitable codec is selected,
there's a color depth setting under Encoding block. Currently that is:
- 10 bit option for H.264, H.265, AV1 (VP9 could do 10 bit in theory too,
but ffmpeg that is built in Blender does not have that compiled in)
- 12 bit option for H.265, AV1
When "lossless" is picked, then similar to how for regular 8-bit video
it switches from YUV 4:2:0 to 4:4:4, this also switches to 4:4:4
10- or 12-bit variant.

Vulkan backend selection will be hidden behind developer extras. There
are some issues which would not be inviting for users to start testing.
- Some basic functionality are not working (object selection, depth
testing)
- NVIDIA UI artifacts are annoying and unsure where the error is.
- AMD artifacts
- Memory leaks
The backend will still be part of Blender 4.3 only hidden behind an
additional flag.

Accidentally added in d70b10dcd4 and moved in dc652aeedb, the
`GREASE_PENCIL_OT_stroke_trim` operator is meant for usage in draw mode
(as the Cutter tool), but not in editmode. It is not the same as the
GPv2 Trim operator, see 4fbef3dc6b
To resolve, remove this from the menu again.

Replace plain-text type information with the type syntax used
for Python's type annotations as it's more concise, especially for
callbacks which often didn't include useful type information.
Note that this change only applies to inline doc-strings,
generated doc-strings from RNA need to be updated separately.
Details:
- Many minor corrections were made when "list" was incorrectly used
instead of "sequence".
- Some type information wasn't defined in the doc-strings and has been
added.
- Verbose type info would benefit from support for type aliases.
With the brush assets project, many paint tools are no longer specified
by tool. To maintain functionality, this commit inspects the brush type
instead of hardcoding against the paint tool to ensure that no matter
which tool is being used, the UI displays correctly based on the brush.

So far asset browsers always sorted assets by name, which resulted in
barely related assets being placed together, and related assets being
scattered. This can make navigating assets tedious, and introduces a lot
of visual noise because of scattered preview image styles.
Related assets are typically put into common asset catalogs, and related
catalogs are typically organized close to each other in the catalog
hierarchy. This makes catalogs a better characteristic to sort by,
solving the mentioned issues.
For asset shelves sorting by catalogs was introduced in 471378c666. This
PR exposes this feature to the asset browser, by introducing a new
option to sort either by name or by catalog. The new default is sorting
by catalog. Within a single catalog, assets are still sorted alphabetically.

All sculpt and paint modes should have the brush selector asset shelf
popup in the tool settings header. For curves sculpt mode this was
missing. There's no good reason for this, probably just an oversight.
Now can pick "H.265 / HEVC" in the video codec dropdown.
Implementation notes:
- Remap CRF value (which is for H.264) slightly to better match H.265
CRF range (e.g. default Medium 23 -> 28).
- Set lossless mode via appropriate private param, and use 4:4:4 YUV
format just like for some other video codecs when in lossless.
- Currently there are no built-in presets for H.265. Maybe later, especially
if/when we'll add 10 bit or HDR videos.

PR #128051 made some improvements to code by cleaning up properties and
simplifying logic.
However, the default tool in most spaces is box select. By switching to
box select default, there should be more front-facing consistency across
spaces while still retaining near-identical behavior.
This patch would fix the small bug listed in #128671 while keeping the
simplified code benefits from #128051.
Also:
- Move selection keymap items up in the Sequencer (Global) keymap so it
is more visible (similar to Node Editor ordering).
- Split `side_of_frame` property for ctrl press keymap item into a
separate keymap item on ctrl click for both LCS and RCS to avoid
clashing with ctrl+drag for box selects in RCS.

From feedback: "Update Asset" sounds more like receiving a new version
of the brush, while this actually saves the changed brush to the asset
library. "Save Changes to Asset" is more clear and fits well with the
labels of other menu items in the menu.
- "Export additional animationsThis feature..." -> Add period and
newline to separate sentences.
- "name from laoded image" -> "Name from loaded image": typo.
- "Duplicate Active Keyframe (All Layer)" -> "All Layers": grammar.
