Different operations may need to lock different part of the interface,
e.g. for rendering, the image editor may still need refreshing while the
interface is locked, but when baking data into a scene, the image editor
needs to be locked because it is not thread safe to get data from a
partially evaluated depsgraph.
This is a better fix on top of 7c8b8b2457
that addresses the root cause with more flexibility for future
operations that requires different interface locking strategy as
well.

* Add render category, which is automatically enabled when using -f or -a
command line flags for background rendering.
* Add extra logs to mention scene, view layer and frame ahead of time rather
than including it in every line.
* Remaining time was removed from Cycles, this will be added back for animations
at the render pipeline level.

Job names displayed in the status bar were not extracted or
translated. This commit adds a regex to the bl_i18n_utils settings to
detect `WM_jobs_get()`, and the `RPT_` translation macro to translate
the message in the UI.
About 30 new messages are translated.

This is part of the short term roadmap goal of simplifying the
compositor workflow
(see https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/134214).
The problem is that many users don't know how to get started with
compositing in Blender, even when they have used Blender for other
areas, e.g. modeling.
Note: although the solution makes compositor node trees reusable
accross blend files, this is a nice side effect and not the main goal
of the PR.
This PR implements a "New" button that creates a new compositing node
tree, and manages trees as IDs. This has following advantages:
- Consistent with other node editors and other parts of Blender,
therefore making it easier to getting started with compositing if users
are familiar with shading or geometry nodes
- Give users the ability to reuse the compositing node tree by linking
or appending it.
Note: The parameter "Use Nodes" is still present in this PR, but will
be removed (in a backward compatible way) in a follow up PR.

Briefly about this change:
- OpenColorIO C-API is removed.
- The information about color spaces in ImBuf module is removed.
It was stored in global ListBase in colormanagement.cc.
- Both OpenColorIO and fallback implementation supports GPU drawing.
- Fallback implementation supports white point, RGB curves, etc.
- Removed check for support of GPU drawing in IMB.
Historically it was implemented in a separate library with C-API, this
is because way back C++ code needed to stay in intern. This causes all
sort of overheads, and even calls that are strictly considered bad
level.
This change moves OpenColorIO integration into a module within imbuf,
next to movie, and next to IMB_colormanagement which is the main user
of it. This allows to avoid copy of color spaces, displays, views etc
in the ImBuf: they were used to help quickly querying information to
be shown on the interface. With this change it can be stored in the
same data structures as what is used by the OpenColorIO integration.
While it might not be fully avoiding duplication it is now less, and
there is no need in the user code to maintain the copies.
In a lot of cases this change also avoids allocations done per access
to the OpenColorIO. For example, it is not needed anymore to allocate
image descriptor in a heap.
The bigger user-visible change is that the fallback implementation now
supports GLSL drawing, with the whole list of supported features, such
as curve mapping and white point. This should help simplifying code
which relies on color space conversion on GPU: there is no need to
figure out fallback solution in such cases. The only case when drawing
will not work is when there is some actual bug, or driver issue, and
shader has failed to compile.
The change avoids having an opaque type for color space, and instead
uses forward declaration. It is a bit verbose on declaration, but helps
avoiding unsafe type-casts. There are ways to solve this in the future,
like having a header for forward declaration, or to flatten the name
space a bit.
There should be no user-level changes under normal operation.
When building without OpenColorIO or the configuration has a typo or
is missing a fuller set of color management tools is applies (such as the
white point correction).

Callbacks: exec invoke & modal now use a typed enum wmOperatorStatus.
This helps avoid mistakes returning incompatible booleans or other
values which don't make sense for operators to return.
It also makes it more obvious functions in the WM API are intended
to be used to calculate return values for operator callbacks.
Operator enums have been moved into DNA_windowmanager_enums.h
so this can be used in other headers without loading other includes
indirectly.
No functional changes expected.

This PR creates 2 namespaces for VSE code:
- `blender::seq` for sequencer core code
- `blender::ed::vse` for editor code
These names are chosen to not be in conflict with each other.
No namespace was used for RNA.
Finally, file `BKE_sequencer_offscreen.h` was moved from BKE to sequencer.

Main goals of this refactor:
* Make it more obvious which update function should be used.
* Make it more obvious which parameters are required by using references instead
of pointers.
* Support passing in multiple modified trees instead of just a single one.
No functional changes are expected.

Regression caused by 5ecb70964e. This is, because renders of individual
strips could no longer be reused when cache is completely disabled
during rendering.
Instead of disabling cache completely, flag cache entries as temporary.
When reading entries also skip disk cache, since in 5ecb70964e goal was
to avoid reading from disk cache.
5ecb70964e also affected visual output of rendered image. This is
reported in #131106. Because of this 1 test must be updated.
Root cause for #131106 is, that byte image was automatically converted
to float, due to processing with other float image. Then the same byte
image was used for processing with another byte image. Before
5ecb70964e this byte converted to float image would be cached, which
caused float code paths to be used. This is correct behavior.
After 5ecb70964e, no image is cached, so float data were not saved, so
byte code path was executed in second processing step.

NOTE: This also required some changes to Cycles code itself, who is now
directly including `BKE_image.hh` instead of declaring a few prototypes
of these functions in its `blender/utils.h` header (due to C++ functions
names mangling, this was not working anymore).

Prevent VSE cache returning image when running render job.
Previously, before render job was started, cache was cleared, but since
disk cache is not cleared, it returned an image. Now cache is not
cleared, but it does not return or store images when rendering.

Previously, values for `ID.flag` and `ID.tag` used the prefixes `LIB_` and
`LIB_TAG` respectively. This was somewhat confusing because it's not really
related to libraries in general. This patch changes the prefix to `ID_FLAG_` and
`ID_TAG_`. This makes it more obvious what they correspond to, simplifying code.

The term `PIL` stands for "platform independent library." It exists since the `Initial Revision`
commit from 2002. Nowadays, we generally just use the `BLI` (blenlib) prefix for such code
and the `PIL` prefix feels more confusing then useful. Therefore, this patch renames the
`PIL` to `BLI`.

The previous commit introduced a new `RPT_()` macro to translate
strings which are not tooltips or regular interface elements, but
longer reports or statuses.
This commit uses the new macro to translate many strings all over the
UI.
Most of it is a simple replace from `TIP_()` or `IFACE_()` to
`RPT_()`, but there are some additional changes:
- A few translations inside `BKE_report()` are removed altogether
because they are already handled by the translation system.
- Messages inside `UI_but_disable()` are no longer translated
manually, but they are handled by a new regex in the translation
system.

Move the three current 'status variables' (stop, update and progress)
into a single 'WorkerStatus' struct. This is cleaner and will allow for
future workin this area without having to edit tens of 'startjob'
callbacks signatures all the time.
No functional change expected here.
Note: jobs' specific internal code has been modified as little as
possible, in many cases the job's own data still just store pointers to
these three values. Ideally in the future more refactor will be using a
single pointer to the shared `wmJobWorkerStatus` data instead.

The hash tables and vector blenlib headers were pulling many more
headers than they actually need, including the C base math header,
our C string API header, and the StringRef header. All of this
potentially slows down compilation and polutes autocomplete
with unrelated information.
Also remove the `ListBase` constructor for `Vector`. It wasn't used
much, and making it easy to use `ListBase` isn't worth it for the
same reasons mentioned above.
It turns out a lot of files depended on indirect includes of
`BLI_string.h` and `BLI_listbase.h`, so those are fixed here.

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
