* This patch just moves runtime data to the runtime struct to cleanup
the dna struct. Arguably, some of this data should not even be there
because it's very use case specific. This can be cleaned up separately.
* `miniwidth` was removed completely, because it was not used anywhere.
The corresponding rna property `width_hidden` is kept to avoid
script breakage, but does not do anything (e.g. node wrangler sets it).
* Since rna is in C, some helper functions where added to access the
C++ runtime data from rna.
* This size of `bNode` decreases from 432 to 368 bytes.
This allows for optimizations because one does not have to iterate
over all nodes anymore to find all nodes within a frame.

I18n: make a few messages translatable

The White Noise entry in the Add Node menu is the only one lacking a "Texture" suffix, which doesn't seem justified since the node itself is already called "White Noise Texture". Rename the entry its name can be extracted and used for the node--and for consistency.
New object material node names (Principled BSDF, Material Output) come from a preset node tree. The nodes' names need to be translated after creation.

Adds a new `source/blender/asset_system` directory and moves asset
related files from BKE to it. More asset related code can follow
(e.g. asset indexing, ED_assetlist stuff) but needs further work to
untangle it. I also kept `BKE_asset.h` and `asset.cc` as is, since they
deal with asset DNA data mostly, thus make sense in BKE.
Motivation:
- Makes the asset system design more present (term wasn't even used in
code before).
- An `asset_system` directory is quite descriptive (trivial to identify
core asset system features) and makes it easy to find asset code.
- Asset system is mostly runtime data, with little relation to other
`Main`/BKE/DNA types.
- There's a lot of stuff in BKE already. It shouldn't be just a dump for
all stuff that seems core enough.
- Being its own directly helps us be more mindful about encapsulating
the module well, and avoiding dependencies on other modules.
- We can be more free with splitting files here than in BKE.
- In future there might be an asset system BPY module, which would then
map quite nicely to the `asset_system` directory.
Checked with some other core devs, consensus seems that this makes
sense.
Using output nodes inside node groups in compositor node trees doesn't
work for the realtime compositor.
Currently, the realtime compositor only considers top level output
nodes. That means if a user edits a node group and adds an output node
in the group, the output node outside of the node group will still be
used, which breaks the temporary viewers workflow where users debug
results inside a node group.
This patch fixes that by first considering the output nodes in the
active context, then consider the root context as a fallback. This is
mostly consistent with the CPU compositor, but the realtime compositor
allow viewing node group output nodes even if no output nodes exist at
the top level context.

When changing the texture paint slot index or activating a Texture Node, the texture displayed in the Image Editor changes accordingly.
This patch syncs the Image Editor when a new texture paint slot was added, which currently is not the case.
Also deduplicates some code.
The new Xcode 14.1 brings the new Apple Clang compiler which
considers sprintf unsafe and geenrates deprecation warnings
suggesting to sue snprintf instead. This only happens for C++
code by default, and C code can still use sprintf without any
warning.
This changes does the following:
- Whenever is trivial replace sprintf() with BLI_snprintf.
- For all other cases use the newly introduced BLI_sprintf
which is a wrapper around sprintf() but without warning.
There is a discouragement note in the BLI_sprintf comment to
suggest use of BLI_snprintf when the size is known.

**Problem**
Currently multiple input sockets are created when a new node group is
made from selected nodes. Some of these are linked from the same source.
It is not convenient to sort out and remove multiple input sockets that
represent the same input. These inputs usually have meaningless names
like 'value', 'x', etc.
**Solution**
Create common input sockets for each link starting from the same input.
Move links inside the new group's node tree and reroute it to connect
the common input socket to the original nodes. This is done by building
up a mapping between the incoming link sources to the input interfaces
created for them. The input interfaces are reused by the rest of the
links having the same source.
This patch also changes the way the input sockets get their names.
Output socket names of the group nodes usually are specific and are
given consciously. Use the output socket names from group nodes instead
of the inputs where the links point to.

Adds a listener to the node add menu so that it refreshes as assets get
loaded asynchronously.
Followup to cf98518055, also see 99e5024e97 and the previous commit.
This patch builds on the work from bdb5754147 to add node group
assets directly in the node editor add menu. Assets are added after
separators to distinguish them, but otherwise they look like any other
node. The catalog trees from all configured libraries are used to build
the menu hierarchy. Only catalogs with matching asset types are used
though.
There are a few limitations of this initial version. For now this only
supports geometry nodes. Support for other built-in node systems just
requires some refactoring of the corresponding add menu though. Lazy
loading will be added in a followup commit. For now there is a label
the first time the menu is opened.
Like the search menu integration, re-saving asset library files in 3.4
is required, if it hasn't been done already.
Implementation wise, there is a some ugly code here. A lot of that is
because the asset system isn't complete. The RNA API doesn't work well
yet, and the system isn't built to interact with multiple libraries at
once. It's also ugly because of the way we combine automatic menu
generation with builtin menus. As noted in a code comment, these two
systems could be merged completely so that the menus for builtin nodes
are also generated in the same way.

The number of node groups was including the fake user count.
I was ignoring the Fake User, and how it affects the id->us count.
This problem was present since the initial commit: 84825e4ed2.
Adds the possibility of having a little number on top of icons.
At the moment this is used for:
* Outliner
* Node Editor bread-crumb
* Node Group node header
For the outliner there is almost no functional change. It is mostly a refactor
to handle the indicators as part of the icon shader instead of the outliner
draw code. (note that this was already recently changed in a5d3b648e3).
The difference is that now we use rounded border rectangle instead of
circles, and we can go up to 999 elements.
So for the outliner this shows the number of collapsed elements of a
certain type (e.g., mesh objects inside a collapsed collection).
For the node editors is being used to show the use count for the data-block.
This is important for the node editor, so users know whether the node-group
they are editing (or are about to edit) is used elsewhere. This is
particularly important when the Node Options are hidden, which is the
default for node groups appended from the asset libraries.

Note: This can be easily enabled for ID templates which can then be part
of T84669. It just need to call UI_but_icon_indicator_number_set in the
function template_add_button_search_menu.

This adds support for showing geometry passed to the Viewer in the 3d
viewport (instead of just in the spreadsheet). The "viewer geometry"
bypasses the group output. So it is not necessary to change the final
output of the node group to be able to see the intermediate geometry.
**Activation and deactivation of a viewer node**
* A viewer node is activated by clicking on it.
* Ctrl+shift+click on any node/socket connects it to the viewer and
makes it active.
* Ctrl+shift+click in empty space deactivates the active viewer.
* When the active viewer is not visible anymore (e.g. another object
is selected, or the current node group is exit), it is deactivated.
* Clicking on the icon in the header of the Viewer node toggles whether
its active or not.
**Pinning**
* The spreadsheet still allows pinning the active viewer as before.
When pinned, the spreadsheet still references the viewer node even
when it becomes inactive.
* The viewport does not support pinning at the moment. It always shows
the active viewer.
**Attribute**
* When a field is linked to the second input of the viewer node it is
displayed as an overlay in the viewport.
* When possible the correct domain for the attribute is determined
automatically. This does not work in all cases. It falls back to the
face corner domain on meshes and the point domain on curves. When
necessary, the domain can be picked manually.
* The spreadsheet now only shows the "Viewer" column for the domain
that is selected in the Viewer node.
* Instance attributes are visualized as a constant color per instance.
**Viewport Options**
* The attribute overlay opacity can be controlled with the "Viewer Node"
setting in the overlays popover.
* A viewport can be configured not to show intermediate viewer-geometry
by disabling the "Viewer Node" option in the "View" menu.
**Implementation Details**
* The "spreadsheet context path" was generalized to a "viewer path" that
is used in more places now.
* The viewer node itself determines the attribute domain, evaluates the
field and stores the result in a `.viewer` attribute.
* A new "viewer attribute' overlay displays the data from the `.viewer`
attribute.
* The ground truth for the active viewer node is stored in the workspace
now. Node editors, spreadsheets and viewports retrieve the active
viewer from there unless they are pinned.
* The depsgraph object iterator has a new "viewer path" setting. When set,
the viewed geometry of the corresponding object is part of the iterator
instead of the final evaluated geometry.
* To support the instance attribute overlay `DupliObject` was extended
to contain the information necessary for drawing the overlay.
* The ctrl+shift+click operator has been refactored so that it can make
existing links to viewers active again.
* The auto-domain-detection in the Viewer node works by checking the
"preferred domain" for every field input. If there is not exactly one
preferred domain, the fallback is used.
Known limitations:
* Loose edges of meshes don't have the attribute overlay. This could be
added separately if necessary.
* Some attributes are hard to visualize as a color directly. For example,
the values might have to be normalized or some should be drawn as arrays.
For now, we encourage users to build node groups that generate appropriate
viewer-geometry. We might include some of that functionality in future versions.
Support for displaying attribute values as text in the viewport is planned as well.
* There seems to be an issue with the attribute overlay for pointclouds on
nvidia gpus, to be investigated.
