The name and tooltip were talking about file-lists, which exposes the
fact that the Asset Browser uses the File Browser code in the UI, which
we shouldn't do. This can confuse users.
Instead have a dedicated operator for the Asset Browser with a proper
name and tooltip.
Currently, both inactive and active tabs are using the `Region Text` theme property.
This patch makes it so active tabs use `Region Text Highlight`.
Since this check is done in other places already but was simply missing in this case, I believe this was just an oversight and not a design decision.
Top is master, bottom is this patch:

This allows this kind of tab highlight, not possible before since all tabs would have white text.

Avoid blocking the UI when searching for animation channels with Ctrl+F.
Instead of showing a single text input in a blocking popup, Ctrl+F now
just focuses the search box above the channel list. It feels nicer to
use and has the niceties that come from using that textbox, like
searching per keystroke, compared to the old pop-up method.
As the behaviour of the operator has changed considerably, this also
changes the operator name from `anim.channels_find` to
`anim.channels_select_filter` and updates the keymaps.

This patch makes the background grid of the node editor a grid of dots
instead of lines. This makes the background look a bit more subtle and
reduces visual complexity. The dots are meant to provide a reference
when panning and zooming. Based on the design of @pablovazquez, and
a patch originally authored by @fabian_schempp.
The "Grid Levels" controls how many levels of dots are drawn. As the
editor zooms in, the higher levels of dots fade in, making them closer
together visually. The zoom factor at which each grid starts and ends
fading in is controllable in the code, and could be tweaked further
in the future. The new default value is 7, out of a range from 0 to 9.

This patch includes code from D9891 and D12754, so credit goes to Juanfran and Dalai.
I updated the patches to work with `master` and with the new overlay toggle.
The reason to include both changes as part of one patch is that the dimmed dashed lines work much better together with colored wires.

For adding the overlay I used `SpaceImageOverlay` as reference, although I'm not familiar with this code so there might be mistakes.

- Rename RNA SpaceSeq.show_strip_overlay to show_overlays
matching the 3D View, the term "strip" was misleading as this is used
for the preview as well.
- Rename various RNA overlay settings to overlay_frame
since "Frame Offset" is a specific feature, avoid having both
Editor.show_overlay and SpaceSeq.show_overlays.
- Rename Editing `over_*` -> `overlay_frame_*` in DNA,
as well as flags.
Back in Blender 2.30, the GUI project brought panels into Blender among other important visual updates.
For the first time it was possible to move the wall of buttons around. Providing a clear separation
between sections (it even allowed the grouping of panels in tabs!)
During the 2.5 redesign, the separation between panels became a line on top of each panel, and panels received
theme settings for background and header colors. The default theme used the same color for both.
In 2.8 the background color of panels was different from headers in the default theme, so the separator
line was removed. While the separator line wasn't elegant (only on top, non-themeable, hard-coded emboss effect),
it provided a sort of separation between panels.
This patch solves the panels-separation by simply adding a margin space around them (not visible in default theme yet).
Even though the margin reduces the width of the working area slightly, it makes room for the upcoming always-visible scrollbars.
Other adjustments:
* Use arrow icon instead of triangle to collapse/expand
* Use rounded corners to match the rest of the UI (editor corners, nodes, etc).

Margin on panels makes use of the `style->panelouter` property that hasn't been
used in a while. Also slight tweaks to `boxspace` and `templatespace` style properties so they
are multiples of 2 and operations on them round better.
There is technically no need to update the themes for them to work, so no theme changes are included in this patch.

A new theme setting under Style controls the roundness of all panels (added it to Style instead of ThemeSpace because I think controlling the panel roundness per editor is a bit overkill):

Allow undo/redo of asset catalog edits with Ctrl+Z/Ctrl+Shift+Z. These
keys are registered in the 'screen' keymap, so that they can take
priority over the global undo/redo operators.
Updated both Blender Default and Industry Compatible keymaps.
- Use 2D cursor in the preview space using shortcuts
matching the UV editor and 3D view.
- Add Cursor tool, cursor transform.
- Support for cursor and bound-box pivot.
- Add pivot pie menu.
- Support toggle/deselect/deselect_all options
(matching 3D viewport object selection).
- Support legacy selection behavior.
- Support selecting by the center in preview views (holding Ctrl).
Introduce a new keymap preference to navigate into folders by clicking on them once instead of twice.
Makes browsing folders faster albeit non-standard, so keeping this off by default for now.
Does not affect Industry Compatible or other keymaps.
It is still the possible to right-click to open context menu, hold Ctrl or Shift to select multiple items:

While the option allows tools be be activated on press instead of tweak,
this meant box-select was catching Ctrl-LMB which is also used for
add/extrude in edit mode.
Resolve this by always using tweak for selection tools,
only supporting activation on press for other tools.
Note that this doesn't impact the default configuration.
This allows most tools to activate on press, removing a small but
noticeable distance between the initial press and detection of a drag
event.
Gizmo tweak no longer actives when Alt is held, to avoid conflicting
with cursor placement.
This has the advantage that the gizmo doesn't get in the way when Alt
is used for activating tools or placing the cursor.
This adds constrained angle mode improvements,
snapping to global and local orientation,
visible distance and angle measurements,
undo capability,
x-ray mode,
multi-object edit mode.
