As panels narrow to extremes the various parts overlap oddly. this PR
improves this by fading out icons as their available space becomes too
narrow to fit. Other items stop displaying under limits.

This PR adds snapping to the sizes of various Sidebars, showing only
the category tabs. While in this state you can click a tab to expand
out that panel, click again to hide it.

The 2D->2D, 3D->3D, 4D->4D hash functions used in Voronoi node were
using quite an expensive hash function. Switch these to dedicated
2D/3D/4D hash functions (pcg2d, pcg3d, pcg4d) -- these are still very
good quality, but the hash function itself is 3x-4x faster.
Which makes Voronoi node calculation overall be around 2x faster. In
some cases when using OSL, the speedup is even larger.
This visibly changes output of the Voronoi noise however. The actual
noise "behaves" the same, just if someone was depending on the noise
pattern being exactly like it was before, this will change the pattern.
Images, more performance results and details wrt OSL are in the PR.

Move panel header, panel background, and sub-panel background color
settings to be global, under `User Interface`, like other widgets.
Remove per-editor panel styling. This way users can edit the panel
colors once, and affect all panels.

It is possible for a mesh to change topology across frames but still be
detected as not needing a topology update.
Until we can make a finer-grained check against the before and after
topology, unconditionally ensure it's updated for now.
Adds a new test that checks a few frames of changing topology that is
similar, but not the same.

Make sidebar tabs use the `wcol_tab` widget colors, instead per editor
settings. Simplifying theme tweaking and the following benefits:
* Set colors in one place, affect all tabs.
* Support for text colors for inactive and active tabs.
* Support for the new `Outline Selected` property.
* In the future sidebar tabs could support `Shaded` style.
The tabs region background color remains per-editor, to be able to
customize it in a way that fits the surrounding colors (sidebar region,
header, or navigation bar background).

The curve interpolation operator write uninitialized data to vertex
attributes if there is more than one interpolated curve pair.
This is because _partial writes_ to `VArraySpan` wrappers only work
if the original VArray is already a span or if the wrapper span is
fully initialized with the original data beforehand.
In the case of the curve interpolation tool for Grease Pencil the
interpolation is invoked for each curve pair separately, creating a
new output attribute `VArraySpan` wrapper each time. This wrapper
is only filled for the curve pair in question and writes uninitialized
data to all the other curves' vertex weight attributes.
To prevent this from happening the simple solution is to use
`lookup_or_add_for_write_span` which initializes the entire span.
This causes quite a lot of unnecessary copying, but that is acceptable
for the Grease Pencil interpolation tool. The alternative is to change
the tool so that the destination GSpanAttributeWriter is only created
once, but that is a much bigger change.

This assert added by 321ec72c74 notes that changing the mesh
wrapper type from subdivision to normal mesh data just discards the
potentially-subdivided geometry and doesn't make sense, and possibly
breaks other assumptions.
This wrapper type change was done years ago by 0f89bcdbeb to
fix issues with shared object data during evaluation. It noted that
the mesh drawing data extraction didn't handle BMesh wrappers correctly
when the object isn't in edit mode, but that doesn't seem to be the
case after two trivial changes. The other bugs mentioned by that commit
are still solved after this change.

`AssetHandle` was a hacky design solution that was never meant to be
permanent. `AssetRepresentation` is a better designed type superseding
it. A lot of work was put into relying less and less on `AssetHandle`,
now it's finally unused.
Final step for #108806.
The `AssetRepresentation` should now be available directly in context
where previously the `AssetHandle` type was required.
By adding an `"asset"` context member to the file browser, this should
avoid any behavior change. (Previously we would get the asset from
context by constructing a asset handle from the "active_file" context
member. So make sure "asset" is available wherever "active_file" is.)
This is another important step towards removing `AssetHandle`, see
blender/blender#108806.
The `AssetHandle` RNA type was added to enable the asset view template,
which was removed in ae9ca35e3b. The type itself was hacky and always
considered a temporary design, as suggested in the type's RNA
description. It has by now been superseded by the `AssetRepresentation`
type.
This is another important step towards removing `AssetHandle`, see
blender/blender#108806.
This PR moves back the wireframe slider option back to the
bones overlay popover. It is only showed in paint weight mode
and only active if in wireframe mode.
It was concluded that this feature should be revisited to maybe
cover all shading modes in the future. But for now it is safer
for 4.5 to limit it to the weightpaint mode.

Adds a Shape Method parameter to the UV Pack Islands node, enabling
artists to choose between faster packing and more efficient space
utilization.
Those are the three shape method options:
* Bounding Box: Fastest, less efficient space usage
* Convex Hull: Balanced performance and efficiency
* Exact Shape: Optimal packing, higher computational cost
This change consolidates arguments in `uv_parametrizer_pack()`. Now it
accept ` UVPackIsland_Params` instead of many different separate options.
This also makes it easier to expose more options in the future.

Current NURBS evaluation handles corners or sharp angles poorly. Sharp
edges appear when a knot vector value is repeated `order - 1` times.
Users can make sharp corners by creating NURBS curve with `Bezier` knot
mode or by setting `order` to 2 for legacy curves. The problem occurs
because current algorithm takes all the curve's definition interval,
divides it into equal parts and evaluates at those points, but corners
are exactly on repeated knot's. To hit those, the resolution has to be
increased higher than required for the rest of the curve.
The new algorithm divides non zero length intervals between two adjacent
knots into equal parts. This way corners are hit with a resolution of 1.
This does change the evaluated points of NURBS curves, which is why some
test results have to be updated in this commit.

Reverts most of the additions from ae1dc8f5f9 and 68c6fc6d38 to allow
internally defined UI lists to set operators to execute on click and
drag events. This was added and used only for the asset view UI
template was removed for 5.0 in the previous commit, as part of #110461.

This UI list based template to show assets in panels was initially
introduced for the new pose library in Blender 3.0. It enabled showing
pose assets in a grid with big previews in the 3D View Sidebar. Since
then this UI element has been superseded by the asset shelf. The
template was planned for removal since then, see #110461.
Note that the asset shelf is only available in a few editors so far,
while the template was available in all editors. So it's possible that
some add-ons still rely on this template. However, I haven't found any
add-on using this template. I think it's been broken a few times and we
didn't get reports about it either. So removal seems fine.
This reverts commit 283ae193d9.
It causes issues because the deselection happens regardless of
properties actually getting keyed, meaning
i.e. setting interpolation modes was no longer possible
This was a case of missing relation tagging update.
The update was functional only after something else
tagged relations.
The relation update needed to be added in both the
Image texture node RNA function (for manually changed
images) and in the add painting slot operator.

In several cases synchronization issues around discarded resources could lead
to crashes. These crashes where more prominent on NVIDIA as they reuse
their handles more often.
This PR requires external synchronization when data is moved from a
discard pool to the main orphaned data discard pool. Also the device
timeline should be guarded by the same mutex.

Required for the transition to `AttributeStorage`, because this
information was previously stored in `CustomDataLayer` flags.
This is already the way we store the active/default color attribute status.
Migrating runtime usage to use the names isn't done here, just like
we still use `CustomData` everywhere at runtime for `Mesh`.

This commit introduces interpolation methods (Nearest, Bilinear,
Bicubic) for the Displace node in the compositor:
- Exposes a dropdown selector for interpolation selection.
- Introduces different methods for Anisotropic and other interpolation
methods.

The transition to `AttributeStorage` requires the active and default
UV map status to be stored separately, since currently they're
stored as flags on `CustomDataLayer`. This commit adds forward
compatible reading for when the status is written as attribute names
on `Mesh` instead, which is what we already do for color attributes.

This was a missing features in EEVEE for ages which
was in fact very easy to implement.
EEVEE implements the sample override like the default
`Use` value in Cycles. It always override the sample
count if not 0. Adding a new option for changing this
behavior just like Cycles can be done later while
at the same time making the option more understandable
and its value moved to the blender's DNA.
This PR moves the UI panel to the Blender side to
be shared between Cycles and EEVEE.

When recursively modifying a property via the Outliner while holding Shift,
only the property that was actually clicked got keyed.
With this fix, the clicked property gets keyed twice. Once with the added call,
and once in the ui button code. This shouldn't be a performance concern though.

Unused after 7cd26d37ea. Was mostly needed to get the `AssetHandle` for
an asset by index in the asset shelf, but this doesn't use the asset
handle anymore.
Another step towards removing `AssetHandle`, see #108806.
When introducing the asset shelf, much of it was using the
hacky/temporary `AssetHandle` type since `AssetRepresentation` wasn't
sufficient yet. Passing an asset through context also required using
`AssetHandle`. All this has changed since then, and we can switch the
asset shelf to pass the asset through context via `AssetRepresentation`
instead, as it should be. I think none of the asset shelf uses the asset
handle anymore now, hooray :)
Minor compatibility breakage: In Python `context.active_file` doesn't
work in the asset shelf anymore now. `context.asset` can be used
instead.
