This introduces a new `UI_MT_button_context_menu` class which is
registered at startup. Addons can append/prepend draw functions to this
class, in order to add their custom context menu entries.
The new class replaces the old `WM_MT_button_context` class, thus
requiring a small change in addons using this feature. This is done
because addons were previously required to register the class
themselves, which caused addons to override each other's context menu
entries.
Now the class registration is handled by Blender, and addons need only
append their draw functions. The new class name ensures that addons
using the old method don't override menu entries made using the new
class.
Menu entries added with the legacy `WM_MT_button_context` class are
still drawn for backwards compatibility, but this class must not be used
going forward, as any addon using it still runs the risk of having its
menu entries overridden, and support for the legacy class is subject to
removal in a future version.

Case where object was directly linked and not owned by a linked
collection was not properly handled, added some level of support for it
now.
Note that the behavior may not always be ideal in cases where the linked
object would be linked in many different local collecitons, hard to get
best solution always from this Editor given limited hierarchy data
available here.
The status bar keymap items still don't get translated because the
TIP_ translation introduced by rBe1974ae30e46 uses the wrong context:
it uses the default context, while the extraction introduced in
rB630b961f234e uses ID_WINDOWMANAGER.

In some cases, there is a chance code already knows who might be the
owner of the given ID, in which case it can be more efficient to check
it first (especially in cases like embedded node trees or scene
collections, where the only other way is to loop over all possible
owners currently).
Will be used in next commit in some Outliner fix.

NOTE: This is committed to the 3.3 branch as part of D15606, which we
decided should go to this release still (by Bastien, Dalai and me). That
is because these are important usability fixes/improvements to have for
the LTS release.
Adds `rna_path.cc` and `RNA_path.h`.
`rna_access.c` is a quite big file, which makes it rather hard and
inconvenient to navigate. RNA path functions form a nicely coherent unit
that can stand well on it's own, so it makes sense to split them off to
mitigate the problem. Moreover, I was looking into refactoring the quite
convoluted/overloaded `rna_path_parse()`, and found that some C++
features may help greatly with that. So having that code compile in C++
would be helpful to attempt that.

Now when an ID template is set to an override ID, `Shift-Click` on the
right button toggles between making it user-editable (if it's a system
override), or clearing any user edit and setting it back to system override.
The ISMOUSE macro was used in situations only button events
needed to be checked.
The only functional difference would be MOUSEMOVE events were
previously accepted for these checks.
No user visible changes expected.
Merges the tree row and grid tile button types, which were mostly doing
the same things. The idea is that there is a button type for
highlighting, as well as supporting general view item features (e.g.
renaming, drag/drop, etc.). So instead there is a view item button type
now. Also ports view item features like renaming, custom context menus,
drag controllers and drop controllers to `ui::AbstractViewItem` (the new
base class for all view items).
This should be quite an improvement because:
- Merges code that was duplicated over view items.
- Mentioned features (renaming, drag & drop, ...) are much easier to
implement in new view types now. Most of it comes "for free".
- Further features will immediately become availalbe to all views (e.g.
selection).
- Simplifies APIs, there don't have to be functions for individual view
item types anymore.
- View item classes are split and thus less overwhelming visually.
- View item buttons now share all code (drawing, handling, etc.)
- We're soon running out of available button types, this commit merges
two into one.
I was hoping I could do this in multiple smaller commits, but things
were quite intertwined so that would've taken quite some effort.
No user visible changes expected.
Similar to rBc355be6faeac, but for view items now instead of the view.
Not much of the item code is ported to use it yet, it's actually a bit
tricky for the most part. But just introducing the base class already
allows me to start unifying the view item buttons (`uiButTreeRow` and
`uiButGridTile`). This would be a nice improvement.
We would first invoke the dragging, and then set the drag data (like the
ID or the dragged modifier), so the `wmDropBox.on_drag_start()` handler
wouldn't be able to access this. This broke dragging some IDs from the
Outliner, noticed in D15333.
It's now possible to first create/request drag data, extend it, and then
invoke the actual dragging. The normal function to start dragging
returns `void` now instead of `wmDrag *`, so the drag data can't easily
be modified after starting anymore.
Many menus get their labels exported to the .po file, but then are not actually translated in the UI.

- Remove references to `ISTEXTINPUT` as any keyboard event with it's
utf8_buf set can be handled as text input.
- Update references to the key repeat flag.
The `ascii` member was only kept for historic reason as some platforms
didn't support utf8 when it was first introduced.
Remove the `ascii` struct members since many checks used this as a
fall-back for utf8_buf not being set which isn't needed.
There are a few cases where it's convenient to access the ASCII value
of an event (or nil) so a function has been added to do that.
*Details*
- WM_event_utf8_to_ascii() has been added for the few cases an events
ASCII value needs to be accessed, this just avoids having to do
multi-byte character checks in-line.
- RNA Event.ascii remains, using utf8_buf[0] for single byte characters.
- GHOST_TEventKeyData.ascii has been removed.
- To avoid regressions non-ASCII Latin1 characters from GHOST are
converted into multi-byte UTF8, when building X11 without
XInput & X_HAVE_UTF8_STRING it seems like could still occur.
In UV edge mode, box and lasso selections allow edge selections only
when the entire edge is contained within the selection area. This
doesn't consider any edges that partially overlap with the selection
area.
This is now fixed by adding a second pass, similar to how these
operators work for edit-mesh selections. Now if both operators are
unable to find any edges contained within the selection area, then
they will perform a second pass which checks for edges that partially
intersect with the selection area.
Now edge selection in the UV editor matches edit-mesh edge-selection
when drawing wire-frame.

This is temporary to investigate which behavior should be kept when
creating an override hierarchy if there are no cherry-picked data
defined: make all overrides user-editable, or not.
This removes the 'make override - fully editable' menu entries.
Followup to the previous commit, to display a pin icon in the scene switcher.
This is a good indicator to have and such workspace-wide functionality should
be available in the topbar, close to what it belongs to (scene switching).
Downside is that it makes this already crowded region even more crowded. But
thanks to the use of superimposed icons, it's not too noisy visually.

Renaming is a nice example of a feature that shouldn't need a specific
implementation for a specific view type (e.g. grid or tree view). So it's
something that can be supported in the general view code. Individual views can
use it "for free" then. This ports the view level part of the renaming code,
the view item level part of it can be ported once we have a common base class
for the view items.
No user visible changes expected.
There's plenty of duplicated code in the grid and the tree view, and I expect
this to become more. This starts the process of unifying these parts, which
should also make it easier to add new views. Complexity in the view classes is
reduced, and some type shenanigans for C compatibility and general view
management can be removed, since there is now a common base type.
For the start this ports some of the view reconstruction, where the view and
its items are compared to the version of itself in the previous redraw, so that
state (highlighted, active, renaming, collapsed, ...) can be preserved.
Notifier listening is also ported.
Changes to scrollbars so that they are always visible, but thin and
dim, and widen and become more visible as your mouse approaches.

Whenever the user edits the query in a search box, the active (highlighted)
result resets to the first. Previously, it would remain at the last
highlighted result, jumping around as the results update.
This is better than the previous behavior. If a user highlights a choice either
on purpose or by accidental mouse movement and continues to type, it is likely
that they are not looking for the currently highlighted choice, so setting it
to the top search result is more useful.

Adds all the basic functionality needed for grid views. They display
items in a grid of rows and columns, typically with a preview image and
a label underneath. Think of the main region in the Asset Browser.
Current features:
- Active item
- Notifier listening (also added this to the tree view)
- Performance: Skip adding buttons that are not scrolled into view
(solves performance problems for big asset libraries, for example).
- Custom item size
- Preview items (items that draw a preview with a label underneath)
- Margins between items scale so the entire region width is filled with
column, rather than leaving a big empty block at the right if there's
not enough space for another column (like the File and current Asset
Browser does it).
- "Data-View Item" theme colors. Not shown in the UI yet.
No user visible changes expected since the grid views aren't used for
anything yet.
This was developed as part of a rewrite of the Asset Browser UI
(`asset-browser-grid-view` branch), see T95653. There's no reason to
keep this part in a branch, continuing development in master makes
things easier.
Grid and tree views have a lot of very similar code, so I'm planning to
unify them to a degree. I kept things separate for the start to first
find out how much and what exactly makes sense to override.
I'm using the tool icons for the brush themselves.
Note: This includes a few brushes that are only defined in D15134.
Those are simply the icons rendered with a world background of #282828.
The value of disabled buttons shouldn't be changed through dropping onto
it. Check for the disabled state in the drop operator poll, so the
dragging code will change the cursor to show that dropping isn't
possible at the given cursor location.
Moves code for managing dragging data from buttons to a separate file.
This way all this closely related code is in one location, making it
easier to see how it all relates, and easier to find.
