This adds the keybindings, menu, and functionally for the edit mode transform operators to grease pencil v3.
The transform operation include:
* translate, rotate, scale, change opacity, change radius

This PR implements an initial drawing tool that can already be used for testing.
While this is not fully feature complete (compared to the current grease pencil draw tool) the following is already implemented:
* Pressure support for radius and opacity.
* Material color and vertex color support.
* New active smoothing algorithm based on curve fitting.
* Simplify algorithm as a post-process step.
Some deliberate limitations include:
* The drawing plane is always the front plane. Drawing on surfaces is also not supported.
*
The current approach has not been optimized for performance yet. The goal was to have a straightforward implementation
first and then focus on performance later.
There are numerous parameters in the code that are hard-coded for now. These should be exposed at some point, potentially as user settings.

Currently retiming is quite awkward, when you need to retime multiple
strips strips in sync. It is possible to use meta strips, but this is
still not great. This is resolved by implementing selection.
General changes:
Gizmos are removed, since they are designed to operate only on active
strip and don't support selection.
Transform operator code is implemented for retiming data, which allows
more sophisticated manipulation.
Instead of drawing marker-like symbols, keyframes are drawn to
represent retiming data. Retiming handles are now called keys. To have
consistent names, DNA structures have been renamed.
Retiming data is drawn on strip as overlay.
UI changes:
Retiming tool is removed. To edit retiming data, press Ctrl + R, select
a key and move it. When retiming is edited, retiming menu and
context menu shows more relevant features, like making transitions.
Strip and retiming key selection can not be combined. It is possible to
use box select operator to select keys, if any key is selected.
Otherwise strips are selected.
Adding retiming keys is possible with I shortcut or from menu.
Retiming keys are always drawn at strip left and right boundary. These
keys do not really exist until they are selected. This is to simplify
retiming of strips that are resized. These keys are called "fake keys"
in code.
API changes:
Functions, properties and types related to retiming handles are renamed
to retiming keys:
retiming_handle_add() -> retiming_key_add()
retiming_handle_move() -> retiming_key_move()
retiming_handle_remove() -> retiming_key_remove()
retiming_handles -> retiming_keys
RetimingHandle -> RetimingKey
Retiming editing "mode" is activated by setting `Sequence.show_retiming_keys`.

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.
Implementation of the hard eraser for grease pencil.
The tool "cuts" the strokes, meaning it removes points that are inside the eraser's radius, while adding points at intersections between the eraser and the strokes.
Note that this does not implement the "Stroke" and "Dissolve" mode of the eraser yet.

As suggested in #108669, the "Navigate during Transform" option has
been removed and this feature works by default.
Now if you press `G`, `R` or `S` to move, rotate or scale an object you
can also navigate in the viewport.
Note that this update modifies the default keymap.
Now pressing `Alt` is required for the following modals:
- `PROPORTIONAL_SIZE_UP`,
- `PROPORTIONAL_SIZE_DOWN`,
- `PROPORTIONAL_SIZE`,
- `AUTOIK_CHAIN_LEN_UP`,
- `AUTOIK_CHAIN_LEN_DOWN`,
- `AUTOCONSTRAIN`,
- `AUTOCONSTRAINPLANE`.

This was due to a wrong mapping of tools in the toolbar.
The fix makes sure that the correct selection tools are used for the
old grease pencil objects.
In order to accomplish this properly, the new grease pencil objects
use their own edit mode context.
This way the two objects are cleanly seperated.
This implements the `VIEW3D_OT_select_box` for the new grease pencil data-block.
Note that this also adds a `get_evaluated_grease_pencil_drawing_deformation` function, but there are TODOs left.
This will have to be updated once the modifier logic is in place.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108661
Adds the initial stage for the grease pencil 3.0 project.
This patch includes:
* New ID and new object type.
* New DNA structures.
* New drawing engine for grease pencil (gpencil-next).
* Tests for the new grease pencil data-type.
* A few operators for conversion, switching modes and (simple) drawing.
Exposed to the user:
* An experimental option to switch to the new grease pencil.
* This will switch the grease pencil render engine to gpencil-next which can only render the new object type.
Current grease pencil objects will no longer render.
* Changing this option currently requires a restart of blender (for the keymap to update).
* A conversion setting in the `Object` > `Convert To` operator.
* A drawing operator in `Draw Mode`.

Since a generic snap cursor was implemented (which can be used by Tools and by DragDrop), the Placement Settings are no longer a settings of the "VIEW3D_OT_interactive_add" Operator.
With that implementation, those properties started to be defined in a
static struct, filled in at runtime and accessed in the UI through
workarrounds.
As they are properties initialized at runtime, they are not saved in
the file.
The solution is to move the Placement Settings to `ToolSettings`.

This patch adds several tools and options to the weight paint mode of Grease Pencil.
* Blur tool: smooths out vertex weights, by calculating a gaussian blur of adjacent vertices.
* Average tool: painting the average weight from all weights under the brush.
* Smear tool: smudges weights by grabbing the weights under the brush and 'dragging' them.
* With the + and - icons in the toolbar, the user can easily switch between adding and subtracting weight while drawing weights.
* With shortcut `D` you can toggle between these two.
* The auto-normalize options ensures that all bone-deforming vertex groups add up to 1.0 while weight painting.
* With `Ctrl-F` a radial control for weight is invoked (in addition to the radial controls for brush size and strength).
* With `Ctrl-RMB` the user can sample the weight. This sets the brush Weight from the weight under the cursor.
* When painting weights in vertex groups for bones, the user can quickly switch to another vertex group by clicking on a bone with `Ctrl-LMB`.
For this to work, follow these steps:
* Select the armature and switch to Pose Mode.
* Select your Grease Pencil object and switch immediately to Weight Paint Mode.
* Select a bone in the armature with `Ctrl-LMB`. The corresponding vertex group is automatically activated.

The built-in brush identifier didn't match the enum name causing
brush assignment not to update the tool-system (clearing the tool).
Resolve by using generate_from_enum_ex(..) to avoid each brush
definition having to manually duplicate enum definitions.
Also avoid using a dict as a default argument. While it didn't cause
problems - in general it's bad practice and worth avoiding as any
modifications produce strange behavior.
Use names:
- `tool_settings` instead of `ts`.
- `props` instead of `op` / `prop` / `op_props`
As Python may reference operators, don't confuse the operator
properties with an instance of the operator.
In both cases these names were already used for most scripts.
This tools allows to change strip playback speed by manipulating
retiming handles. More handles can be added to single strip to create
variable playback speed.
This tool replaces Speed Factor property in time panel, with exception
of sound strips. Support for sound strips is still in review.
Pull Request #104523
This commit implements described in the #104573.
The goal is to fix the confusion of the submodule hashes change, which are not
ideal for any of the supported git-module configuration (they are either always
visible causing confusion, or silently staged and committed, also causing
confusion).
This commit replaces submodules with a checkout of addons and addons_contrib,
covered by the .gitignore, and locale and developer tools are moved to the
main repository.
This also changes the paths:
- /release/scripts are moved to the /scripts
- /source/tools are moved to the /tools
- /release/datafiles/locale is moved to /locale
This is done to avoid conflicts when using bisect, and also allow buildbot to
automatically "recover" wgen building older or newer branches/patches.
Running `make update` will initialize the local checkout to the changed
repository configuration.
Another aspect of the change is that the make update will support Github style
of remote organization (origin remote pointing to thy fork, upstream remote
pointing to the upstream blender/blender.git).
