The graph editor has the function to hide the display of FCurves and to only draw keyframes on selected curves.
Both options were not respected when executing the frame jump operator,
meaning it would jump to potentially hidden keyframes.
This patch adds a new operator that is specific to the Graph Editor and that respects those features.
The only possible issue that could arise from this is a slight confusion for the user
why they behave differently between editors.
Especially with only the Graph Editor and the 3D view open.
In general I think it's an improvement and follows the "you can only modify what you see" mantra in blender

Similar to other screen options, add one for Spreadsheet editors that
makes them update when playing animation.
NOTE: there are some editors that always update when playback was
invoked from an animation editor while others only do this when their
respective option is specifically set (think the later behavior fits the
spreadsheet better).

Similare to the Metal backend, Vulkan keeps data of the full texture
around as they will be executed by the same submission. So there are
no benefits to splice a texture into smaller parts, but adds overhead
as more commands are required to be processed.

The `NC_SCENE | ND_FRAME` was originally added so that the sequencer
preview is redrawn so that the fps stops showing (2855485565).
Using this specific notifier has the side effect that it also causes a depsgraph
update in `wm_event_do_notifiers`. However, that is not necessary just to
trigger the redraw. Using the `NC_SPACE | ND_SPACE_SEQUENCER` notifier
also triggers the redraw without causing a depsgraph update.
Part of #59244
This was heavily requested since there are a lot of usages of
`operator_menu_enum` around in our UI [and these menus all cannot be
added to Quick Favorites atm.].
The following are just a small sample from the 3D viewport menus (object
mode), but there are many more.
- Object
-- Set Origin
-- Relations >> Make Local...
-- Convert To
- Add
-- Grease Pencil
-- Empty
-- Force Field
-- Collection Instance
- Select
-- Select All by Type
-- Select Grouped
-- Select Linked
- ...
So in order to make this work, `USER_MENU_TYPE_OPERATOR` /
`bUserMenuItem_Op` is reused (but extended with a string to the property
in question). (Alternatively, a new type could be introduced -- but
would share most of the code with the type that is reused in this
patch).
Depending on being used with an enum or not [detected by the usage of
that new string] we then either call `uiItemFullO_ptr` or
`uiItemMenuEnumFullO_ptr` in `screen_user_menu_draw`.
NOTE: support for other enums (property enums such as pivot point or
transform orientations) will follow in a separate commit (building upon
6a13b6324b, trying to solve the way these draw as menus)
NOTE: opening User Preferences with such "new" Quick Favorites even
works (just not drawn with a menu)

Use bl_run_operators to detect cases when operators would crash
when run in an expected context for the following operators:
- GIZMOGROUP_OT_gizmo_select
- GIZMOGROUP_OT_gizmo_tweak
- GPENCIL_OT_time_segment_move
- OBJECT_OT_add_named
- OBJECT_OT_data_instance_add
- OBJECT_OT_drop_named_material
- SCULPT_OT_mask_by_color
- SEQUENCER_OT_delete
- SEQUENCER_OT_rename_channel
- SEQUENCER_OT_retiming_handle_move
- SPREADSHEET_OT_change_spreadsheet_data_source
- UI_OT_drop_color
Note that some of these situations users were unlikely to encounter,
however there were cases script authors could run into such as deleting
sequence strips without a region or masking by color without a 3D view.
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.

While replacing the extension with an empty string works,
it required a redundant string-size argument which took a dummy
value in some cases. Avoid having to pass in a redundant string size by
adding a function that strips the extension.
Using a "//" prefix resolves to the root directory which isn't a good
default as it typically doesn't have write permissions.
Only set the name and let the file selector pick a directory to use
(matches how saving from the text editor works).
Add WM_window_pixels_read & WM_window_pixels_read_sample that
use front-buffer pixel reading when supported.
Note that direct access to reading from the front-buffer is still needed
for writing thumbnails - where redrawing can cause problems
(see code-comments).
- Use off-screen drawing when reading from the front-buffer isn't
supported.
- Add a capabilities flag for reading the front-buffer which is always
disabled on WAYLAND.
- Add GPU_offscreen_read_pixels_region, used for reading a sub-region of
an off-screen buffer - use for color-picking a single pixel.
Currently the Textures used for offscreen rendering don't have
the `GPU_TEXTURE_USAGE_HOST_READ` flag. But some cases it is
needed. This PR adds a parameter when creating an offscreen
buffer.
Other solution could be to add this flag to all textures, but
we chose not to do this as that reduces the amount of fine-tuning
options for Metal/Vulkan backends. GPU can store textures
differently based on its actual usage.
This option isn't available in the python API as we don't expect
add-on developers to fine-tune texture usages to this extent.
For convenience `GPU_TEXTURE_USAGE_ATTACHMENT` is by default
always added.

Introduces *ARegionType.poll()* as a way to dynamically add/remove a region. The region is still there internally, but is not accessible to the user.
Previously editors would to this manually, by either removing/adding regions altogether, or hiding them, unsetting their alignment (so no AZones are added I assume) and removing their event handlers. Polling makes this much simpler.
We plan to use this in #102879.
This patch refactors multiple editors to use region polling:
- File Browser
- Sequencer
- Clip Editor
- Preferences
Notes:
- Previously, editors would lazy-create some of the regions. Versioning is added here to ensure they are always there. Could be a separate patch.
- Some editors reuse a region in different display modes, and so additional work needs to be done to reinit regions they become available or the mode changes. Typically `V2D_IS_INIT` is unset for that, which isn't great. Could be improved, but not a new issue.
Behavior change:
- When the Preferences are opened as a regular editor, the "execution" region in the preferences that displays the *Save Preferences* button would still be there, but empty with a scrollbar.
This patch makes it disappear entirely.
## Implementation
- Introduces `ARegionType.poll()`
- Before a window is drawn, all contained regions have their poll checked, and the result is stored in a flag (`RGN_FLAG_POLL_FAILED` - runtime-only flag).
- If the result of the poll changes, the area is re-initialized and event handlers are added/removed.
- UI code checks the flag as needed.

This patch refactors the texture samples code by mainly splitting the
eGPUSamplerState enum into multiple smaller enums and packing them
inside a GPUSamplerState struct. This was done because many members of
the enum were mutually exclusive, which was worked around during setting
up the samplers in the various backends, and additionally made the API
confusing, like the GPU_texture_wrap_mode function, which had two
mutually exclusive parameters.
The new structure also improved and clarified the backend sampler cache,
reducing the cache size from 514 samplers to just 130 samplers, which
also slightly improved the initialization time. Further, the
GPU_SAMPLER_MAX signal value was naturally incorporated into the
structure using the GPU_SAMPLER_STATE_TYPE_INTERNAL type.
The only expected functional change is in the realtime compositor, which
now supports per-axis repetition control, utilizing new API functions
for that purpose.
This patch is loosely based on an older patch D14366 by Ethan Hall.

The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
This patch adds an option to the Status Bar: `Scene Duration`
This shows the duration of the current scene in frames and timecode
`Duration: <timecode> (Frame <current frame>/<total frames>)`
The timecode follows the formatting defined in the user preferences.

immDrawPixels performs significantly slower in Metal
than OpenGL. This was caused by two main factors. Firstly,
the additional overhead of tiled texture update, where all
memory needed to be kept in flight for each update, but
caused update to take a slow path. Avoiding tile update
with Metal is more efficient for both memory pressure
and GPU pipelining.
Secondly, on AMD platforms, the staging buffer used
for temporary texture data was page-faulting when
several texture updates would occur within one frame.
This is due to limitations of allocating one large contiguous
memory chunk. Using the Metal buffer pool for staging
data is more efficient.

No behavior change intended.
Many file drag & drop handlers used the icon assigned for dragging to
determine what type of data is dragged. This is fragile, for example
changing an icon would break drag & drop (!). This happened a few times,
e.g. see 3788003cda. It's also causing problems with #104830, which
changes how file browser drag data is handled.
Instead use the file extension to determine the file type.
In some cases panels without headers were drawn too wide in sidebars
with region overlap.
Instead of always using the maximum width the view allows, headerless
panels now also use the width calculated in
`panel_draw_width_from_max_width_get`. The function already returns the
correct width in all cases and also takes care of insetting the panels,
when their backdrop needs to be drawn, which is necessary for headerless
panels, too, when there is region overlap.

Improve handling for cases where maximum in-flight command buffer count is exceeded. This can occur during light-baking operations. Ensures the application handles this gracefully and also improves workload pipelining by situationally stalling until GPU work has completed, if too much work is queued up.
This may have a tangible benefit for T103742 by ensuring Blender does not queue up too much GPU work.

These warnings can reveal errors in logic, so quiet them by checking
if the features are enabled before using variables or by assigning
empty strings in some cases.
- Check CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT is set before use as CMake docs
note that this may be left unset if it's not needed.
- Remove BOOST/OPENVDB/VULKAN references when disable.
- Define INC_SYS even when empty.
- Remove PNG_INC from freetype (not defined anywhere).
Previously when on frame 2.5 and trying to jump to a
keyframe that was on frame 2, it would instead jump past it.
Now it properly respects the subframes for that.
