This removes the include `UI_interface_layout.hh` from
`UI_interface_c.hh`, and in many places this swaps the include
from `UI_interface.hh` to `UI_interface_layout.hh`.
Also, cleanups some `UI_interface.hh` includes with
`UI_interface_icons.hh` or `UI_interface_types.hh`
Check if either the memory is zero or already matches the default value,
and copy. This simplifies a common pattern to a single line.

The old name `modifier_panel_end` was not great because:
* There is no corresponding `*_begin`.
* It sounds more magical then it really is (it just draws the error message).
* It doesn't even have to be at the end as is sometimes the case when there are subpanels.

This converts the public `uiItemO` function to an object oriented
API (`uiLayout::op`).
Also this rearranges `idname` paramether, since this the only one
required, and to make format similar to `uiItemFullO`
Note: One of the benefits of moving from a public function to class
method is to reduce API usage difference between C++ and Python. In
Python this method is called `UILayout::operator`, however `operator`
is a reserved keyword in C++.

This converts the public `uiItemL` function to an object oriented
API (`uiLayout::label`), matching the python API.
This reduces the difference between the C++ API with the python version,
its also helps while converting code from python to C++ code (or vice-versa),
making it almost seamless.

The goal here is to avoid having to cast to and from `ID` when getting the
evaluated or original ID using the depsgraph API, which is often verbose and not
type safe. To solve this, there are now `DEG_get_original` and
`DEG_get_evaluated` methods which are templated on the type and use a new
`is_ID_v` static type check to make sure it's only used with valid types.
This allows removing quite some verbosity on all the call sites. I also removed
`DEG_get_original_object`, because that does not have to be a special case
anymore.

This commit moves generated `RNA_blender.h`, `RNA_prototype.h` and
`RNA_blender_cpp.h` headers to become C++ header files.
It also removes the now useless `RNA_EXTERN_C` defines, and just
directly use the `extern` keyword. We do not need anymore `extern "C"`
declarations here.

This makes the read and write API functions match more closely, and adds
asserts to check that the data size is as expected.
There are still a few places remaining that use BLO_read_data_address
and similar generic functions, these should eventually be replaced as well.

Fix two issues with the current label:
1. "particle tab" should be "Particles tab" since that's the actual name
of the tab.
2. "Settings are in..." is inconsistent with similar labels where the
word used is "inside" instead of "in".

Move the public functions from the editors/object (`ED_object.hh`)
header to the `blender::ed::object` namespace, and move all of the
implementation files to the namespace too. This provides better code
completion, makes it easier to use other C++ code, removes unnecessary
redundancy and verbosity from local uses of public functions, and more
cleanly separates different modules.
See the diff in `ED_object.hh` for the main renaming changes.

This allows modifiers to have cache pointers that are preserved over undo steps.
I intend to use this for the baked data cache for the geometry nodes modifier.

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.

Use the standard "elements_num" naming, and use the "corner" name rather
than the old "loop" name: `verts_num`, `edges_num`, and `corners_num`.
This matches the existing `faces_num` field which was already renamed.

Inlining the functions is simpler nowadays, since there are utility
functions to copy spans and tag the mesh caches dirty. Also use an
array instead of a raw pointer for multires.
Resolves#103789
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.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
Previously the panel type name of a modifier (e.g. "MOD_PT_Smooth") was
created by copying from the ModifierTypeInfos name.
This meant that modifiers with the same default name would use
the same identifier for the panels.
Since different object types (e.g. OB_GREASE_PENCIL and OB_MESH)
might want to use the same default modifier name, this PR introduces
an idname field in the ModifierTypeInfo struct. This is then used to
generate the panel type name.
For compatibility reasons, the idname is the same as the name for now.
Note: Because the name was used previously, this means that some
modifiers have spaces in their panel type name.
E.g. "MOD_PT_Volume to Mesh".

Implements part of #101689.
The "poly" name was chosen to distinguish the `MLoop` + `MPoly`
combination from the `MFace` struct it replaced. Those two structures
persisted together for a long time, but nowadays `MPoly` is gone, and
`MFace` is only used in some legacy code like the particle system.
To avoid unnecessarily using a different term, increase consistency
with the UI and with BMesh, and generally make code a bit easier to
read, this commit replaces the `poly` term with `poly`. Most variables
that use the term are renamed too. `Mesh.totface` and `Mesh.fdata` now
have a `_legacy` suffix to reduce confusion. In a next step, `pdata`
can be renamed to `face_data` as well.

Instead of keeping track of a local array of positions in the modifier
stack itself, use the existing edit mode SoA "edit cache" which already
contains a contiguous array of positions. Combined with positions as a
generic attribute, this means the state is contained just in the mesh
(and the geometry set) making the code much easier to follow.
To do this we make more use of the mesh wrapper system, where we can
pass a `Mesh` that's actually stored with a `BMesh` and the extra
cached array of positions. This also resolves some confusion-- it was
weird to have the mesh wrapper system for this purpose but not use it.
Since we always created a wrapped mesh in edit mode, there's no need
for `MOD_deform_mesh_eval_get` at all anymore. That function was quite
confusing with "eval" in its name when it really retrieved the original
mesh.
Many deform modifiers had placeholder edit mode evaluation functions.
Since these didn't do anything and since the priority is node-based
deformation now, I removed these. The case is documented more in the
modifier type struct callbacks.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108637
Some modifiers used `MOD_deform_mesh_eval_get` to make sure they had
a mesh to retrieve vertex groups from. But since curves don't support
vertex groups anyway, and since the curve to mesh conversion is handled
by the (legacy) curve object modifier stack anyway, this is confusing
and unnecessary. This shouldn't give any behavior changes, but some
deform modifiers on legacy curve objects might be faster if they used
to do the conversion.
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:
https://reuse.software/faq/
Implicit sharing means attribute ownership is shared between geometry
data-blocks, and the sharing happens automatically. So it's unnecessary
to choose whether to enable it when copying a mesh.
The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
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.

Use a consistent style for declaring the names of struct members
in their declarations. Note that this convention was already used in
many places but not everywhere.
Remove spaces around the text (matching commented arguments) with
the advantage that the the spell checking utility skips these terms.
Making it possible to extract & validate these comments automatically.
Also use struct names for `bAnimChannelType` & `bConstraintTypeInfo`
which were using brief descriptions.
This commit replaces the `Mesh_Runtime` struct embedded in `Mesh`
with `blender::bke::MeshRuntime`. This has quite a few benefits:
- It's possible to use C++ types like `std::mutex`, `Array`,
`BitVector`, etc. more easily
- Meshes saved in files are slightly smaller
- Copying and writing meshes is a bit more obvious without
clearing of runtime data, etc.
The first is by far the most important. It will allows us to avoid a
bunch of manual memory management boilerplate that is error-prone and
annoying. It should also simplify future CoW improvements for runtime
data.
This patch doesn't change anything besides changing `mesh.runtime.data`
to `mesh.runtime->data`. The cleanups above will happen separately.
