The Asset Browser now displays a tree with asset catalogs in the left
sidebar.
This replaces the asset categories. It uses the new UI tree-view API
(https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Interface/Views#Tree-View).
Buttons are displayed for adding and removing of catalogs. Parent items
can be collapsed, but the collapsed/uncollapsed state is not stored in
files yet.
Note that edits to catalogs (e.g. new or removed catalogs) are only
written to the asset library's catalog definition files when saving a
.blend.
In the "Current File" asset library, we try to show asset catalogs from
a parent asset library, or if that fails, from the directory the file is
stored in. See adaf4f56e1.
There are plenty of TODOs and smaller glitches to be fixed still. Plus a
UI polishing pass should be done.
Important missing UI features:
* Dragging assets into catalogs (WIP, close to being ready).
* Renaming catalogs
* Proper handling of catalogs in the "Current File" asset library
(currently not working well).
The "Current File" asset library is especially limited still. Since this
is the only place where you can assign assets to a catalog, this makes
the catalogs very cumbersome in general. To assign an asset to a
catalog, one has to manually copy the Catalog ID (a random hash like
number) to the asset metadata through a temporary UI in the Asset
Browser Sidebar. These limitations should be addressed over the next few
days, they are high priority.

With 794c2828af & f48a4aa0f9 it's possible to reuse possibly

This enables fields as the official workflow for geometry nodes.
While many features are converted to use fields rather than the old
attribute workflow, many are not yet converted. In that case, the
unconverted nodes are still accessible with an experimental option.
In the coming weeks the rest of the nodes will be converted.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D12672
This commit adds nodes to do direct conversion between meshes and point
clouds in geometry nodes. The conversion from mesh to points is helpful
to instance once per face, or once per edge, which was previously only
possibly with ugly work-arounds. Fields can be evaluated on the mesh
to pass them to the points with the attribute capture node.
The other conversion, point cloud to mesh vertices, is a bit less
obvious, though it is still a common request from users. It's helpful
for flexibility when passing data around, better visualization in the
viewport (and in the future, cycles), and the simplicity of points.
This is a step towards T91754, where point clouds are currently
combined with meshes when outputing to the next modifier after geometry
nodes. Since we're removing the implicit behavior for realizing
instances, it feels natural to use an explicit node to convert points
to vertices too.

This patch allows passing a field to the modifier as output. In the
modifier, the user can choose an attribute name. The attribute

output domain is selected in the node group itself. We might want
to add this functionality to the modifier later as well, but not now.

For some reason was assuming setting a property in RNA would call its
update callback if any, but this actually needs to be done separately.
So add this call to `rna_property_override_operation_apply`.
There are cases where there is no way to ensure we do have/know about an
active scene. Further more, this should not be required to perform
'real' updates on data, only to perform additional special handling in
current scene (mostly related to editing tools, UI, etc.).
This pointer is actually almost never used in practice, and half of its current
usages are fairly close to abuse of the system (like calls to
`ED_gpencil_tag_scene_gpencil` or `BKE_rigidbody_cache_reset`).
This commit ensures that the few places using this 'active scene' pointer are
safely handling the `NULL` case, and clearly document the fact that a
NULL scene pointer is valid.
Scene passed to the update callback is the active scene it //may// not
be that actual ID owner of the affected data (although in practice it

The node outputs instances instead of real geometry so that it doesn't
have to duplicate work for every character afterwards. This is much
more efficient, because all of the curve evaluation and nodes like fill
curve don't have to repeat the same calculation for every instance of
the same character.
In the future, the instances component will support attributes, and the
node can output attribute fields like "Word Index" and "Line Index".

Catalogs work like directories on disk (without hard-/symlinks), in that
an asset is only contained in one catalog.
See T90066 for design considerations.
#### Known Limitations
Only a single catalog definition file (CDF), is supported, at
`${ASSET_LIBRARY_ROOT}/blender_assets.cats.txt`. In the future this is
to be expanded to support arbitrary CDFs (like one per blend file, one
per subdirectory, etc.).
The current implementation is based on the asset browser, which in
practice means that the asset browser owns the `AssetCatalogService`
instance for the selected asset library. In the future these instances
will be accessible via a less UI-bound asset system.
The UI is still very rudimentary, only showing the catalog ID for the
currently selected asset. Most notably, the loaded catalogs are not
shown yet. The UI is being implemented and will be merged soon.
#### Catalog Identifiers
Catalogs are internally identified by UUID. In older designs this was a
human-readable name, which has the problem that it has to be kept in
sync with its semantics (so when renaming a catalog from X to Y, the
UUID can be kept the same).
Since UUIDs don't communicate any human-readable information, the
mapping from catalog UUID to its path (stored in the Catalog Definition
File, CDF) is critical for understanding which asset is stored in which
human-readable catalog. To make this less critical, and to allow manual
data reconstruction after a CDF is lost/corrupted, each catalog also has
a "simple name" that's stored along with the UUID. This is also stored
on each asset, next to the catalog UUID.
#### Writing to Disk
Before saving asset catalogs to disk, the to-be-overwritten file gets
inspected. Any new catalogs that are found thre are loaded to memory
before writing the catalogs back to disk:
- Changed catalog path: in-memory data wins
- Catalogs deleted on disk: they are recreated based on in-memory data
- Catalogs deleted in memory: deleted on disk as well
- New catalogs on disk: are loaded and thus survive the overwriting
#### Tree Design
This implements the initial tree structure to load catalogs into. See
T90608, and the basic design in T90066.

Buttons to edit asset metadata are now disabled for assets from an
external library (i.e. assets not stored in the current .blend file).
Their tooltips explain why they are disabled.
Had to do some RNA trickery to disable the metadata properties at RNA
level, not at UI script level.
The basic idea is:
* Local data-block assets set the data-block as owning ID for the asset
metadata RNA pointer now.
* That way we can use the owner ID to see where the metadata belongs to
and decide if it's editable that way.
* Additionaly, some Python operators needed better polling so they show
as grayed out, and don't just fail.
One important thing: Custom properties of the metadata can still be
edited. The edits won't be saved however. Would be nice to disable that,
but it's currently not supported on BPY/IDProperty/RNA level.

This node can be used to fillet splines at control points to
create a circular arc.
The implementation roughly follows T89227's design.
The node works in two main modes: Bezier and Poly
* Bezier: Creates a circular arc at vertices by changing
handle lengths (applicable only for Bezier splines).
* Poly: Creates a circular arc by creating vertices (as
many as defined by the Count fields input) along
the arc (applicable for all spline types).
In both modes, the radius of the created arc is defined
by the Radius fields input.
The Limit Radius attribute can be enabled to prevent
overlapping when the defined radius exceeds the maximum
possible radius for a given point.
