This allows us to build more complex values in-place in the map.
Before those values had to be build separately and then moved into the map.
Existing calls to the Map API remain unchanged.
A virtual array is a data structure that is similar to a normal array
in that its elements can be accessed by an index. However, a virtual
array does not have to be a contiguous array internally. Instead, its
elements can be layed out arbitrarily while element access happens
through a virtual function call. However, the virtual array data
structures are designed so that the virtual function call can be avoided
in cases where it could become a bottleneck.
Most commonly, a virtual array is backed by an actual array/span or
is a single value internally, that is the same for every index.
Besides those, there are many more specialized virtual arrays like the
ones that provides vertex positions based on the `MVert` struct or
vertex group weights.
Not all attributes used by geometry nodes are stored in simple contiguous
arrays. To provide uniform access to all kinds of attributes, the attribute
API has to provide virtual array functionality that hides the implementation
details of attributes.
Before this refactor, the attribute API provided its own virtual array
implementation as part of the `ReadAttribute` and `WriteAttribute` types.
That resulted in unnecessary code duplication with the virtual array system.
Even worse, it bound many algorithms used by geometry nodes to the specifics
of the attribute API, even though they could also use different data sources
(such as data from sockets, default values, later results of expressions, ...).
This refactor removes the `ReadAttribute` and `WriteAttribute` types and
replaces them with `GVArray` and `GVMutableArray` respectively. The `GV`
stands for "generic virtual". The "generic" means that the data type contained
in those virtual arrays is only known at run-time. There are the corresponding
statically typed types `VArray<T>` and `VMutableArray<T>` as well.
No regressions are expected from this refactor. It does come with one
improvement for users. The attribute API can convert the data type
on write now. This is especially useful when writing to builtin attributes
like `material_index` with e.g. the Attribute Math node (which usually
just writes to float attributes, while `material_index` is an integer attribute).

This adds support for mutable virtual arrays and provides many utilities
for creating virtual arrays for various kinds of data. This commit is
preparation for D10994.
Caused by {rB571362642201} where versioning code for new sequencer tool
settings was only done for scenes already having sequencer scene->ed.
If scene->ed was not present, sequencer tool settings were never
initalized for this scene [if the VSE was then used later], leading to
crashes in some places.
Now just use the versioning code to initalize sequencer tool settings
for all scenes not having them yet.

Click-drag events that weren't handled would continually be tested
for each mouse-motion event.
As well as being redundant, this added the overhead of querying
gizmos twice per motion event.
Now click-drag is only tested once when the drag threshold is reached.
This mitigates T87511, although the single drag test still causes
the snap gizmo to flicker.
The intention with this API function was to temporarily load
ID's tagged LIB_TAG_TEMP_MAIN,
however the way the `real_main` was used,
these ID's were loaded into the G.main.
`ob->runtime.geometry_set_eval` can contain instances as well.
This only affected instances generated by geometry nodes.
We should probably have a separate function that tells us if an object
has instances or not..
In the past, custom attributes were rarely used in practice, because the
only way to use them was from Python. Since geometry nodes, more
users started to add their own attributes. Those attributes should not
be removed automatically. It is still possible to remove them in
geometry nodes explictly to improve performance.
This has technically been fixed by rB3e87d8a4315d794efff659e40f0bb9e34e2aec8a,
but the fix there is questionable, because it disables an optimization for vertex groups
entirely. This fix is a little bit more precise in that it only disables the optimization when
the object is used by some geometry nodes modifier.
This flag is needed so PointerRNA structs that aren't
part of the current context can access enum values
without inspecting the context.
This is needed for keymap access, so the keymap UI and keymap
export doesn't depend on the current context.
This changes the following items:
- package name is now `blender-3.0.0-git.09eb04c0a865-windows64`
rather than `blender-3.00.0-git.09eb04c0a865-windows64`
- Fix version resource for blender.exe not building
- Data directories are now `3.0\...` rather than `3.00\....`
- User prefs are now in:
`c:\Users\users\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\3.0\`
rather than:
`c:\Users\users\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\3.00\`
- Updating startup & preferences from previous release
has a special exception for 3.0 to check for 3.93 and older.

The exporting was creating a pdf state for each stroke, but this was necessary only for strokes with opacity.
Now, the state is only created when needed and remove the state variable from class.
Also, avoid exporting invisible strokes.
Blender 3.0 is now in bcon1 (alpha).
There are likely a few places in Blender and the automated building pipeline
that may fail since we are switching our versioning number system.
For example, at the moment the splash and the status bar are showing
3.00.0, and it should show 3.1.0.
I suspect the Python API, version used to report a bug, buildname, are
all wrong too. These will be handled later.
When inserting a node on top of a link, the multi input socket
indices weren't updated. This fixes that and keeps the relative
order of the links the same.
