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.
When baking an Action on an object which has custom properties that come
from an addon or python script that isn't loaded, the baking would fail with:
```
TypeError: Cannot assign a 'dict' value to the existing 'hops' Group IDProperty
```
This comes from an addon that isn't present or loaded on a users machine.
The fix is to check for `IDProperty` and skip those.

When writing to a property that doesn't exist e.g. `frame.drawing.strokes.test = 42`
no exception would be raised and it would silently fail.
The fix defines the `__slots__` on the classes explicitly which then raises an exception
if the user tries to write something that wasn't previously defined.

When e.g. executing `drawing.strokes[0].softness = 3`, the API would
always create a new attribute `softness` even if that attribute existed
already.
The issue was that the code was using the `.get(value, fallback)` syntax
but the `fallback` expression is always evaluated by python.
The fix removes the use of the `fallback` and uses a simple `if/else` to
check if the attribute doesn't exist yet and only then create it.

Part of the brush assets project followups, see #116337.
Based on feedback, it seems important to indicate to the user when a brush has
unsaved changes.
There's no reliable updating mechanism we can use or hook into here, except for
RNA "update" callbacks. Brush data gets changed in many places in code, the only
way to do this seems manual tagging every time a brush property gets changed.
This PR introduces `BKE_brush_tag_unsaved_changes()` for this. I spent some time
going through all brush properties to ensure changes call the tagging function.
A known limitation with this will be that changes to dependencies won't be
indicated in the brush. E.g. Changing the texture attached to a brush won't make
the brush be indicated as changed.
The UI to indicate the changed brushes is being discussed still, see #128846.

Building an extension when the manifest didn't define a "type"
would assert instead of reporting the missing field.
Return earlier when there are errors to prevent the assertion.
In essential brush assets, the "Crease" brush was replaced with two
crease brushes ("Crease Polish" and "Crease Sharp"), but the keymap
wasnt respecting that.
So to resolve now point Shift+C to "Crease Polish" (seems closer to what
the former "Crease" brush was.

In a Curves (not Curve) object, the MeshSequenceCache modifier is not
available from the "Add Modifier" dropdown.
However, the Alembic importer adds such a modifier onto the Curves
objects it creates. It is also possible to transfer such a modifier from
another object, regardless of its type.
Thus, this seems not to be an issue of compatibility of the modifier
with the Curves object type, but an UI/UX oversight.
`BKE_object_support_modifier_type_check` already has a correct check for
this, so just adding CURVES support to the appropriate menu.
Same is true for the POINTCLOUD type, so adding that as well.

Removes unused GPv2 functions in blenkernel.
Notes:
- Functions for layer masks are still in use, but annotations never
have layer masks in the first place. Would be good to remove the data
structures so we can remove the functions too.
- Some multi-frame edit functions are also still nominally used, but
multi-frame editing is not an active feature for annotations. This
should also be removed.

The API would return `None` if the number of strokes in the drawing was `0`.
Instead this should return a slice that has a length of 0 to be consistent.
The issue was that the API assumed that the `.selection` attribute
was always on either the point domain for points or the stroke domain
for strokes.
Internally the attribute domain depends on the current selection mode.
To fix the issue, the API now checks for the domain of the attribute
and handles it accordingly.
If the selection attribute is on the `'POINT'` domain:
* Reading the `stroke.select` property will check if *any* of the points of
the stroke are selected and return `True` or `False`.
* Writing to the `stroke.select` property will write `True` or `False` to *all* the
points in the stroke.
Also resolves#128645.

Regression in [0] which didn't account for entering paths in the
file selector which would create paths without confirming,
warning that the "confirm" property was missing.
Entering `*.*` would create `_._` for e.g in the users CWD for example.

This renames the mode identifiers to be consistent with e.g. the context mode identifiers and other names used for the new Grease Pencil.
For `object.mode`:
* `PAINT_GPENCIL` -> `PAINT_GREASE_PENCIL`
* `SCULPT_GPENCIL` -> `SCULPT_GREASE_PENCIL`
* `VERTEX_GPENCIL` -> `VERTEX_GREASE_PENCIL`
* `WEIGHT_GPENCIL` -> `WEIGHT_GREASE_PENCIL`
For the internal `ob->mode` flag:
* `OB_MODE_PAINT_GPENCIL_LEGACY` -> `OB_MODE_PAINT_GREASE_PENCIL`
* `OB_MODE_SCULPT_GPENCIL_LEGACY` -> `OB_MODE_SCULPT_GREASE_PENCIL`
* `OB_MODE_VERTEX_GPENCIL_LEGACY` -> `OB_MODE_VERTEX_GREASE_PENCIL`
* `OB_MODE_WEIGHT_GPENCIL_LEGACY` -> `OB_MODE_WEIGHT_GREASE_PENCIL`
Resolves#127374.

The `paint.brush_colors_flip` option was not exposed in the vertex color
panel.
This adds the toggle in the panel and also adds the keymap `X` to flip
the colors.
