The `connect_sockets()` node util function is used to connect sockets
even when inside node groups, when only a "virtual socket" is
available. It takes care of creating the interface in the group, so
that a socket is available in the Input or Output node.
This feature was broken after the change of API, replacing
`tree.inputs` and `tree.outputs` with a unified `tree.interface`.
This commit updates the util to account for this change.
Fixes an exception in the Node Wrangler add-on, when connecting a
socket of a type not yet available in an Input or Output node.

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.
Support name-spaced add-ons, exposed via user configurable extension
repositories.
Directories for add-ons can be added at run-time and are name-spaced to
avoid name-collisions with Python modules or add-ons from other
repositories.
This is exposed as an experimental feature "Extension Repositories".
Details:
- A `bUserExtensionRepo` type which represents a repository which is
listed in the add-ons repository.
- `JunctionModuleHandle` class to manage a package with sub-modules
which can point to arbitrary locations.
- `bpy.app.handlers._extension_repos_update_{pre/post}` internal
callbacks run before/after changes to extension repositories,
callbacks are used to sync the changes to the Python package that
exposes these to add-ons.
- The size of an add-on name has been increased so a user-defined package
prefix can be included without enforcing shorter add-on names.
- Functionality relating to package management has been left out of this
change and will be developed separately.
Further work:
- While a repository can be renamed, enabled add-ons aren't renamed.
Eventually we might want to support this although we could also
disallow renaming repositories with add-ons enabled as the name isn't
all that significant.
- Removing a repository should remove all the add-ons located in this
repository.
- Sub-module names are currently restricted to `[A-Za-z]+[A-Za-z0-9_]*`
we might want to relax this to allow unicode characters (we might
still want to disallow `-` or any characters that would prevent
attribute access in code).

The RNA function `FCurve.update()` now also deduplicates keys. This is done
in a way that is independent of key selection; simply the last key in the
list of keyframes 'wins' and overwrites earlier ones. It is exactly the
same as `FCurve.keyframe_points.deduplicate()`.
Introduce `BKE_fcurve_deduplicate_keys()` to merge keys that are on the
same time, or within the time comparison threshold (1/100th of a frame).
When merging two consecutive keys, the last one 'wins' and determines
the final key *value*. The first key's *time* is retained, to ensure the
reference point for the next comparisons is stable. The only exception
here is when there is a key exactly on an integer frame number, in which
case that one is preferred.
The function is exposed in RNA as `fcurve.keyframe_points.deduplicate()`
This commit also introduces a new function `BKE_fcurve_bezt_shrink(fcu,
new_totvert);` that can reallocate the `bezt` array to ensure removed
keys no longer take up memory.
The RNA function `fcurve.update()` currently performs two steps, which
are now exposed to RNA as well, as `keyframe_points.sort()` and
`keyframe_points.handles_recalc()`. This is so that Python code can
sort, deduplicate, and then recalculate the handles only once (calling
`update` + `deduplicate` would do the latter twice).
In Blender 4.0 the deduplication will also be part of `fcurve.update()`,
see #107126.

Links created through the normal Python API are invalid since
7026096099. Before then, one could create links to or from virtual
sockets from Python (grayed out sockets in Group Input and Group
Output nodes), as is still possible in the GUI.
This is documented as an API change, and it broke at least Node
Wrangler, see blender/blender-addons#104470. Instead of just fixing
that, let's introduce an API to make this operation simpler.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/105975
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).
