addon_utils.enable/disable now handle wheels so that the functions can
be used with extension add-ons.
A new argument `refresh_handled` supports scripts handing refresh
themselves which is needed to avoid refreshing many times in cases
when there are multiple calls to enable/disable.
This is mostly useful for internal operations.
d2a802d3c6 got overzealous by removing the "tweak" property which was
actually necessary to differentiate box select on click-drag vs. box
select on B. Fix by restoring the tweak property for everything but
preview keymap items (where it doesn't actually do anything).
Main reason this happened is because the original description was a bit
too cryptic, so update it to be clearer.

Adds the current GPU backend to the `Help -> Report a bug` script
when using the OpenGL or Vulkan backend. This makes it easier for
triagers to figure out if a user is using OpenGL or Vulkan
in cases the user doesn't explictly state which they're using.

Always use the Brush.color setting in the Draw mode side bar.
Technically the "Color" panel in the sidebar can draw in other modes,
but it's polling for explicit tools that limit it to the Draw mode
implicitly.
Use the appropriate brush or unified color in other GP modes based on
the unified paint settings flag.
Worth noting this was technically broken for a long time:
The default was that unified paint is disabled, so the GP panels would
use the brush color as expected. Enabling unified paint would then break
the colors, probably wasn't done very frequently since GP files
and e.g. mesh sculpting don't mix often. The default was changed in
#129127 to enable unified paint by default, which now breaks GP colors
by default.

Earlier in the brush assets project, for mesh sculpting, grease pencil,
and curves sculpting, the toolbar brush icon used was changed to a
version with a green highlight. This commit reverts that change to use
the monochrome grey icon instead in each of these modes.
For Sculpt mode specifically, the Paint tool icon is kept as this green
version to differentiate the usages. In future releases, further changes
are planned for sculpting related brushes to better represent their
functionality.

Support multiple extensions with different Python versions in a similar
way to how "platforms" are handled now.
This will be needed when Blender upgrades to a newer version of Python
so extensions which have a binary dependency on Python 3.11 don't
attempt to install in a Blender built with a newer Python version.
Details:
- Extensions from incompatible Python versions are not listed.
- Python versions are extracted from wheel names.
- An extension may include wheels for multiple Python versions,
only the compatible wheels will be installed.
- Links may include a "python_versions" field which is checked
when dropping into Blender.
- JSON generated by the "server-generate" command include the:
"python_versions" field for extensions that include wheels.
- The "python_versions" field is optional, when omitted no version
checks are performed.
Also correct watch_test make target.
Ref #128750.
This implements the "Select Linked Pick" operator, by default exposed
in the keymap with `L` and `Shift-L`. This mirrors the existing operator
in legacy-curve edit mode and mesh edit mode.
The implementation is pretty simple, we just find the curve closest to
the mouse and change the selection of the points in that curve.

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.

Previously the `W` menu was only available for brush tools (brush and
eraser), it should be available to all tools, thus putting the key map
registering function into `km_grease_pencil_paint_mode`.

When doing action baking, the option "Clear Constraints" mentions
it's doing visual keying while not actually using that option.
Just fixing the description, even though a better solution
would be to revisit the design of the options to see if they
even make sense in some configurations.

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.
