During the strips redesign it was tested to go with drop shadows but
in practice and based on user feedback it looks better without.
- Remove drop shadow.
- Use white text for active/selected strips, black for unselected.

EEVEE stores light probes using octahedral mapping. Compared to the previous
cubemap storage octahedral has less pixels. The 64x64 is becoming useless
and can be removed. This PR also enables generating light probe maps upto 4k.
Some issues were found: the offset of the sphere inside the atlas
was always set to mipmap level 0 offset. This was hidden because of the texture
wrapping. Also the offset was substracted from the local texture
coordinate when calculating the direction of the pixel. Might be that due
to the incorrect offset (mipmap level 0), the latter issue was never detected.

The offset was only 0.5 which centered the gather
sample exactly on the first pixel of the quad.
With floating point arithmetic differences on Nvidia
this lead to the wrong set of texture pixel being
fetched by gather.
Using the coordinate at the center of the quad fixes
the issue.
Fix#123262
With selected strips, it is not clear where one of them begins and another
ends since their outlines are right next to each other.
This changes strip look so that:
- All strips have consistent dark 1pt outline at the outer edge.
- Selected strips have 2pt highlight inside said outer edge.
- Selected strips also have a 1pt wide 33% opacity darker line inside the
selection highlight (and inside possible handles). To improve readability
in case strip content happens to be similar to selection/active color.

Almost certainly not an issue in current codebase (this 'copy' version
of `MEM_cnew` does not seem much used in the first place), but better be
consistent with the 'allocating' version.

Sync a bit better the checks on the alignment value between
`MEM_lockfree_mallocN_aligned` and `MEM_guarded_mallocN_aligned`.
The only significant change, in `MEM_guarded_mallocN_aligned`, is the
usage of `ALIGNED_MALLOC_MINIMUM_ALIGNMENT` instead of 'magic value' `8`.
This should not have any effect on 64bits platforms, but on 32bits ones
the minimum alignment would be reduced from `8` to `4` now.
NOTE: we could also consider making these checks part of a utils
function, instead of duplicating them in the codebase.
When installing from disk, include remote repositories in the list.
- Works with drag & drop from file system.
- This is the only way to "downgrade" an extensions.
Extensions in remote repositories that have no remote entries (orphans)
are now listed in the UI and the "list" sub-command.
Required for installing into remote repositories from disk (see #122302)
Details:
- Consistent ordering (local, remote) arguments.
- Use zip(..., strict=True) when sequences are expected to be aligned.
Add-ons may attempt to load the GPU module in background mode when no GPU
context has been initialized yet. This would give an error on import.
If then later the GPU context does get initialized, for example for a
render engine, import would still fail as the module is cached.
This reverts commit d7f124f06f, and again
throws errors in methods and constructors instead of module import.

This was previously attempted in #109518 and reverted in #112234. Now do
both the changes in the mesh and material export, and make it an option
in USD export. Hydra always renamed to "st" and continues to do it.

Dropping an extension URL for an incompatible package displayed the
"Unknown Repository" dialog.
Resolve by detecting the case of an unknown package being dropped from
a known repository. Noting the package may not be compatible.
This fixes#121695. `float4x4` matrices are generally expected to be 16 byte aligned.
Currently, there is no mechanism (afaik) that allows allocating these overaligned types
when loading files from disk. This patch adds an array with alignment information for
each type in `SDNA`. Currently, the alignment is just `__STDCPP_DEFAULT_NEW_ALIGNMENT__`
for all types and is manually set for the `mat4x4f` DNA type. The .blend file format is
not changed at all. The alignment information is purely runtime data.
In the future it would probably be good to generalize this a bit more instead of
hardcoding the alignment for `mat4x4f`, but would make it unnecessarily complex for
now because this is intended for the release branch.

Current look of VSE timeline view strip transformation handles makes them
somewhat "too narrow", especially after recent changes that made them
more narrow than before (handle tweaking feature) and a strip visual change
that made strip outline not go outside of strip bounds. They are now just
2px wide, effectively.
This changes their look as outlined in #123332 design task:
- The inset dark line is no longer over the handles, but rather "inside"
of them (except when handles are semitransparent, i.e. for strips that
are not selected).
- The handles themselves have rounded corners.

Timeline markers get a default name of "F_<frame>" when creating with
`marker.add`, but an empty name with `marker.camera_bind`.
Because the name of the current frame's marker is displayed in the
viewport statistics, such markers appear as "<>" after the name of the
active object, which is confusing.
This change gives the same default name of "F_<frame>" to markers
created this way.
It also cleans up a comment in the line copied from, as that line was
introduced in late 2008 so probably not so temporary.

Now the `uiBlock` array for node is indexed with `node.index()` instead
of the draw-index which is not as readily available in some cases.
The main alternative would be to create an extra map from node index
to draw-index but that doesn't seem worth it right now.
Now the strip outline (1 point for unselected strips, 2 point outline +
1 pt dark inset) takes monitor DPI / user preference line width into
account, via the usual U.pixelsize machinery.

Resolve regression in [0] which incorrectly replaced
`WM_event_modal_handler_region_replace` with
`WM_event_ui_handler_region_popup_replace`
causing a crash when accessing dangling pointers.
Resolve by restoring the call to clear modal handlers regions.

This was a missing block of the TAA implementation.
TAA jitter and reprojection have a tedency to soften
the texture. Add a 1.5 bias to make them a bit sharper.
Note that this is a bit different than the usual TAA
blurring. In final render we don't do reprojection
so it is only because the texture filter (box filter
from the LOD) is applied at the same time than our pixel
filter (blackmann-harris). It is less noticeable than
the normal TAA blur, but still blurs ~2px instead of
1.5px.
This adds a "Legacy Behavior" option to the Limit Rotation constraint that makes
it behave how Limit Rotation constraints did prior to
ed2408400d. Newly created constraints have this
option disabled, but versioning code enables the option on constraints from
older files to ensure that the behavior of e.g. existing rigs is not altered.
This is one part of a two-part fix for #123105. The other part is in PR
extensions/rigify#4.
