a) There were two filter icons next to each other in the header which
isn't exactly professional, b) the filter was redundant since IDs are
now grouped under an ID type element ("Objects", "Collection", ...)
anyway.
In the hierarchies view it was already hidden (because the whole point
of it is to show relationships between IDs, you wouldn't want to have
any parts of the hierarchy hidden).
Searching isn't possible in the hierarchies view anymore, so the options
for it shouldn't be displayed either.
Followup to 21b92a5f31, forgot to remove these.
c9a9967903 added a workaround for performance issues in heavy
production scenes in the library overrides hierarchies view, reducing
the amounts of elements to be built. Searching for elements would still
have to build the entire tree, so Blender would essentially freeze when
searching in mentioned heavy scenes. Removing the search functionality
works around this issue for now.
Adds a new operator to automatically rotate UV Islands into alignment.
Modes:
* Auto (All edges)
* Geometry (V direction will point in geometry direction) [1]
* Edge (Rotate until selected edge is in V direction)
Also adds uv_sync_selection support to UV Randomize Transform.

[1] Listed as "World" in Task description.
This is a new implementation of the draw manager using modern
rendering practices and GPU driven culling.
This only ports features that are not considered deprecated or to be
removed.
The old DRW API is kept working along side this new one, and does not
interfeer with it. However this needed some more hacking inside the
draw_view_lib.glsl. At least the create info are well separated.
The reviewer might start by looking at `draw_pass_test.cc` to see the
API in usage.
Important files are `draw_pass.hh`, `draw_command.hh`,
`draw_command_shared.hh`.
In a nutshell (for a developper used to old DRW API):
- `DRWShadingGroups` are replaced by `Pass<T>::Sub`.
- Contrary to DRWShadingGroups, all commands recorded inside a pass or
sub-pass (even binds / push_constant / uniforms) will be executed in order.
- All memory is managed per object (except for Sub-Pass which are managed
by their parent pass) and not from draw manager pools. So passes "can"
potentially be recorded once and submitted multiple time (but this is
not really encouraged for now). The only implicit link is between resource
lifetime and `ResourceHandles`
- Sub passes can be any level deep.
- IMPORTANT: All state propagate from sub pass to subpass. There is no
state stack concept anymore. Ensure the correct render state is set before
drawing anything using `Pass::state_set()`.
- The drawcalls now needs a `ResourceHandle` instead of an `Object *`.
This is to remove any implicit dependency between `Pass` and `Manager`.
This was a huge problem in old implementation since the manager did not
know what to pull from the object. Now it is explicitly requested by the
engine.
- The pases need to be submitted to a `draw::Manager` instance which can
be retrieved using `DRW_manager_get()` (for now).
Internally:
- All object data are stored in contiguous storage buffers. Removing a lot
of complexity in the pass submission.
- Draw calls are sorted and visibility tested on GPU. Making more modern
culling and better instancing usage possible in the future.
- Unit Tests have been added for regression testing and avoid most API
breakage.
- `draw::View` now contains culling data for all objects in the scene
allowing caching for multiple views.
- Bounding box and sphere final setup is moved to GPU.
- Some global resources locations have been hardcoded to reduce complexity.
What is missing:
- ~~Workaround for lack of gl_BaseInstanceARB.~~ Done
- ~~Object Uniform Attributes.~~ Done (Not in this patch)
- Workaround for hardware supporting a maximum of 8 SSBO.

This patch moves material indices from the mesh `MPoly` struct to a
generic integer attribute. The builtin material index was already
exposed in geometry nodes, but this makes it a "proper" attribute
accessible with Python and visible in the "Attributes" panel.
The goals of the refactor are code simplification and memory and
performance improvements, mainly because the attribute doesn't have
to be stored and processed if there are no materials. However, until
4.0, material indices will still be read and written in the old
format, meaning there may be a temporary increase in memory usage.
Further notes:
* Completely removing the `MPoly.mat_nr` after 4.0 may require
changes to DNA or introducing a new `MPoly` type.
* Geometry nodes regression tests didn't look at material indices,
so the change reveals a bug in the realize instances node that I fixed.
* Access to material indices from the RNA `MeshPolygon` type is slower
with this patch. The `material_index` attribute can be used instead.
* Cycles is changed to read from the attribute instead.
* BMesh isn't changed in this patch. Theoretically it could be though,
to save 2 bytes per face when less than two materials are used.
* Eventually we could use a 16 bit integer attribute type instead.

Add missing labels, and also add tooltips.
Unfortunately there is no way currently to extract two messages from a
single 'function' call, so unless those type of macros become very
widely used, would keep it as manual tagging.
Also disambiguate `case` in text context, pretty sure English is one of
the very rare languages to use this word for character case too.
- Keying (keyframe insertion)
- Roughness (particle children)
- New image, collection, text (in menus)
- Parents (particles)
- Wrap (text)
- Light (add menu)
- Empty (volume add menu)
- Empty (empty add menu)
- Cycles (f-curve modifier)
- Drag (workspace tool type)
- Power (light intensity)
- Power (math nodes)
This last change also moves all math operations in nodes to the
ID_nodetree context. It's needed only for some operations, but we
can't be more granular here.
Also...
- Fix context extraction for interpolation mode headers in F-Curves
and GPencil interpolation operator
- Enable new translation: "Slot %d" in image editor
- Fix an English message in the node editor:
"Replace the input image's alpha channels by..." -> channel

This operator converts any stroke of gpencil with a center line into a stroke with the perimeter.
It's possible to assign the active material, keep current or create a new material for all perimeters.
The conversion is only done for strokes with a material using `Stroke`. Only `Fill` strokes are not converted.
Known issues: As the perimter has not boolean implementation, some perimeters can be overlaped. This could be solved in the future when a new 2D boolean library will be developed.

This introduces a new `UI_MT_button_context_menu` class which is
registered at startup. Addons can append/prepend draw functions to this
class, in order to add their custom context menu entries.
The new class replaces the old `WM_MT_button_context` class, thus
requiring a small change in addons using this feature. This is done
because addons were previously required to register the class
themselves, which caused addons to override each other's context menu
entries.
Now the class registration is handled by Blender, and addons need only
append their draw functions. The new class name ensures that addons
using the old method don't override menu entries made using the new
class.
Menu entries added with the legacy `WM_MT_button_context` class are
still drawn for backwards compatibility, but this class must not be used
going forward, as any addon using it still runs the risk of having its
menu entries overridden, and support for the legacy class is subject to
removal in a future version.

Also add new outliner liboverride operators mapping to the manual,
though this is useless currently as this feature is not working in many
part of the UI, including the Outliner contextual menu.
Compared to the previous implementation this has a limit of 65536 lights
per scene. Lights exceeding this limit will be ignored.
This also introduce fine grained GPU light culling, making rendering
many lights in a scene more efficient as long they don't overlap much.
Compatible light panels have been unhidden.
Note: This commit does not include surface evaluation, only light culling.
Follow-up to design discussions here at the studio, add liboverride
operations into their own sub-menu, with three main entries:
- Create: Create, or enable for user editing, override hierarchies.
- Reset: Keep overrides data, but reset all local changes to the
reference linked data values.
- Clear: like reset, but also turn editable overrides back to system
overrides (aka non user editable).
Those three options can all operate either on the selected items, their
content only, or both.
Advanced operations are moved into a "Troubleshoot Hierarchy" sub-menu,
where one can resync, resync enforced, and fully delete library
overrides. Those operations always affect a whole override hierarchy,
regardless of which items are selected or not.
Since [0] (fix for T95591), the tweak tools fallback action used tweak
instead of press.
This was enabled so tools such as "Measure" & "Add Cube" could use
fallback tools (otherwise is wasn't possible to add a new ruler without
also selecting for e.g.), however this is of limited use since both
tools support dragging anywhere to activate, making them less useful
with other selection tools beside tweak (box/lasso for e.g.).
Resolve by disabling the fallback option for tools where using the
tweak tool to select is undesirable. Selection by clicking with
"Measure" & "Add Cube" is still supported as this is also set in the
3D view's key-map.

This patch adds the core realtime compositor evaluator as well as a
compositor draw engine powered by the evaluator that operates in the
viewport. The realtime compositor is a new GPU accelerated compositor
that will be used to power the viewport compositor imminently as well as
the existing compositor in the future.
This patch only adds the evaluator and engine as an experimental
feature, the implementation of the nodes themselves will be committed
separately.

This replace the previous square rings approach by sampling a disk the
footprint of the search area. This avoids sampling in areas in corners
where there isn't any weight.
This results in much less samples needed to acheive a good enough result.
The max number of samples for an area of 11x11 px is hard coded to 16 and
still gives good results with the final clamp.
The number of samples is adaptative and is scaled by the search area (max
CoC).
The High Quality Slight Defocus is not required anymore. If there is a
quality parameter to add, it would be sample count option. But I consider
the temporal stability enough for viewport work and render can still
render many full scene samples. So I don't see a need for that yet.
