When dragging an area from one window to another, the target location
was out by the monitor dot-pitch on macOS Retina displays. This commit
fixes this by converting the window position coordinates to the display
native pixel size via a new `WM_window_pixels_coords` API function.

The RNA path that is generated for Editor properties were mostly
incomplete (e.g. the viewport overlay settings).
- in python tooltips
- from the `Copy (Full) Data Path` operator
- python methods `path_from_id`, `path_resolve` returned incomplete paths
Since a space (editor) is ultimately owned by the screen, we now add the
missing "areas[x].spaces[x]" subpath to any editor.
Nested structs (like the viewport overlay) also need to include this
subpath.
Some editor related structs are not tied to a single space though (and
these cases are therefor not resolved yet):
- Dopesheet is referenced from SpaceGraph, SpaceAction and SpaceNla
- View3DShading is referenced from SpaceView3D but render engines as
well
- FileSelectParams / FileAssetSelectParams / FileAssetSelectIDFilter
need more investigation
NOTE: in case of the VSE, to make this work this also changes the
overlays to be tied to SpaceSeq (the only editor using them)
NOTE: since the above is now in place, adding VSE overlay props to Quick
favourites is now made possible as well (was a leftover from !116604)

a more detailed version string, while status bar shows more compactly.
"LTS" is included in the long form when defined. Patch version shown
in both detailed and long form but only if non-zero. "Alpha", "Beta",
"Release Candidate" included in long form, but uses " a", " b", " RC"

Essentially, the issue is that the Adjust Last Operation popup is
created in the new image editor window, before region polling was
executed for the new window. This region polling must be done first
because it can affect which regions are visible, and the
`ARegionType.on_poll_success()` callback may do additional set up.
Now make sure that region polling is always executed when a screen is
prepared for display, as part of the screen "refresh" code.
Note that the region polling is used for the asset shelf regions, which
are supported in the image editor since c60a1006e5.

Match function and declaration names, picking names based on
consistency with related code & clarity.
Also changes for old conventions, missed in previous cleanups:
- name -> filepath
- tname -> newname
- maxlen -> maxncpy
This was just rather useless level of abstraction. I heard from other
devs that these helper classes caused confusion, so better to avoid
this.
Now the asset representation has all the needed bits to create its full
path, blend-file path and asset library relative path. In fact only the
asset library relative path needs to be stored to make all this
available, since the asset representation already stores a reference to
the asset library owning it, so the paths can be recreated easily.
Support blocking extensions so there is a way for the maintainers of
the remote repository to notify the user if one of their installed
extensions blocked along with a reason for blocking.
Blocked extensions cannot be installed from the preferences or by
dropping a URL.
When an installed & blocked extension is found:
- An icon int the status bar shows an alert,
clicking on the icon shows the blocked extensions.
- The extensions preferences show a warning.
- The extensions & add-ons UI shows an alert icon
and "details" section shows the reason.
Details:
- Blocked & installed extensions are shown first in the installed
extensions panel.
- The internal "install" logic prevents downloading & installing
blocked extensions.
- Blocked extensions can still be downloaded & installed from disk.
- The "list" command includes an error message if any installed
extensions are blocked.
- The "server-generate" command can optionally take a configuration
file that includes the blocklist for the generated JSON.

Context menu operators to assign/change/remove shortcuts for brush
assets were missing. Reason being that the keymap to add them to and
look them up in was not detected correctly.
Part of #124418.
Commit adds support for new format of RawInput packets used by
3Dconnexion devices: SpaceMouse Enterprise, Keyboard Pro and Numpad Pro
specifically. This required distinguishing processing button data
delivered as a bitmask and as a numbers array.
Basically it allows for using said devices buttons in Blender including
using these buttons in shortcuts.
Changes work only for Windows. MacOS will allow only for older format
that is bitmask.
Details:
- NDOF button event values have been moved into the public GHOST_Types.h
header and are no longer aligned to the WM event values.
This was done so the values could be changed to match hardware/drivers
without breaking key-maps stored in user preferences.
- Keyboard Pro and Numpad Pro buttons are not currently used because
they don't map to any standard keyboard events.
These could be supported, see the PR for details.

This commit covers the case where all objects get removed from local
view, and an undo or blendfile read leads to such empty local views.
It also adds code to remapping/foreachID View3D callbacks to tag
potential local views as 'maybe empty', and use the View3D refresh
callback to actually check and potentially exit the local empty view.

The outputs of the Render Layers node in the compositor in the startup
file are missing. That's because add-ons are disabled when loading the
startup file, so Cycles will not be registered by the time the node tree
of the compositor is loaded, and its passes will not exist.
To fix this, we mark the compositor node tree as needing an update after
loading the startup file.

This PR removes the "Widget Label" text style, found in Preferences /
Themes / Text Style. This results in both labels and the text found in
input boxes sharing settings. This results in a slight loss of
customization but it isn't that useful to have these things separate
and results in code complication and errors.

This commit moves generated `RNA_blender.h`, `RNA_prototype.h` and
`RNA_blender_cpp.h` headers to become C++ header files.
It also removes the now useless `RNA_EXTERN_C` defines, and just
directly use the `extern` keyword. We do not need anymore `extern "C"`
declarations here.

Previous code would declare properties as `extern PropertyRNA`, but
implement them as type-refined data (e.g. `FloatPropertyRNA`).
This is fully illegal thing, it happened to work 'fine' so far for two
main reasons:
* C-linking does not do type-checks on extern data.
* Code using these publicly exposed data would always use them as
`PorpertyRNA *` pointers, and pass them to RNA API.
However, this (finally !) breaks when trying to move generated
`RNA_property.h` header to C++, since at least MSVC2022 does mangle the
type in the extern'ed symbol name, which makes linking fails epically.
This commit fixes the issue by only declaring `PointerRNA *` pointers in
the headers. These pointers are then defined in each implementation file
(the `rna_xxx_gen.cc` ones), and assinged to the address of a matching
local static variable. These static variables are type-refined, and
actually contain the property definition data.

Centralized method to obtain ScrArea names. Areas can add an optional
space_name_get callback to provide a name that differs by subtype. If
not defined then ED_area_name will return RNA UI name, which is correct
in cases without area subtypes. This eliminates the current use of
RNA_property_enum_name_gettexted using a temporary context, which
results in the reported (hard to duplicate) error.

The call to `GHOST_DisposeSystemPaths` was done in `WM_exit_ex` and
_some_ of the tests' 'teardown'. But some more where missing. Issue was
only reproducible when defining `WITH_CXX_GUARDEDALLOC` cmake option.
There are several layers of issues here, this commit addresses the
first, simplest one: since `BKE_appdir` API will indirectly create the
GHOST SystemPaths data, it is simpler and more logical to move the
deletion of this SystemPaths data in `BKE_appdir_exit()`. This avoids
exposing a fairly low-level implementation detail all over our codebase.
Further more, `WM_init` also does not need to explicitely call
`GHOST_CreateSystemPaths`, since it will be created automatically when
required.
Also see 06be295946.
These aren't all cases, but a few that I found by addding a static
assert in `MEM_new` so that it fails for trivially constructible types.
This is the main merge commit of the brush assets project. The previous
commits did some preparing changes, more tweaks are in the following commits.
Also, a lot of the more general work was already merged into the main branch
over the last two years.
With the new design, quite some things can be removed/replaced:
- There's a unified "Brush" tool now, brush based tools and all special
handling is removed.
- Old tool and brush icons are unsed now, and their initialization code
removed here. That means they draw as blank now, and the icon files can be
removed in a follow up.
- Creation of default brushes is unnecessary since brushes are now bundled in
the Essentials asset library. Icons/previews are handled as standard asset
previews.
- Grease pencil eraser options are replaced by a general default eraser brush
that can be set by the user.
More changes are planned still, see task list issue below.

Turns the asset shelf into a popover which reduces some of the special
handling. An operator `WM_OT_call_asset_shelf_popover()` (similar to
`WM_OT_call_panel()`) is added to be able to call the popover from shortcuts.
Exactly this was an important aspect for the brush assets project, to allow
quick searching for brushes from the popup.
A custom shortcut can be added to asset shelf popovers using "Assign Shortcut"
in the context menu of buttons invoking it.
The popover is spawned with the mouse hovering the first asset and the search
button active using "semi modal" handling. That means while the popover is
open, any text input is captured by the search button, while the rest of the
popover stays interactive. So for example navigating through asset catalogs is
possible, a single click activates an asset and closes the popover.

The cause of the crash was that asset libraries are freed, but the filtered
trees used for things like node tool menus weren't marked dirty, so we
continued to use the freed asset data. On a design level this is quite
concerning because it means the lifetimes of the asset tree caches and
the asset system's asset libraries are connected tenuously.
Eventually there should be a better solution, but I found the simplest
fix for now is just to add a notifier when opening a new file that causes
the asset tree caches to be tagged dirty.

This makes it possible for popups to have their confirm & cancel buttons
defined in the operator's draw callback.
When used with popups created by: `WindowManager::invoke_props_dialog()`
to override the default confirm/cancel buttons.
In the case of `WindowManager::popover(..)` & `bpy.ops.wm.call_panel()`
this can be used to add confirm/cancel buttons.
Details:
- When the confirm or cancel text argument is a blank string the button
isn't shown, making it possible to only show a single button.
- The template is similar to UILayout::operator in that it returns the
operator properties for the confirm action.
- MS-Windows alternate ordering of Confirm/Cancel is followed.
Needed to resolve#124098.

Caused by 9d4d1aea98. Not every operator
that uses lasso gesture has `smooth_stroke/radius` properties defined,

This PR adds stroke stabilization settings for the Sculpt mode lasso
tools:
* Mask
* Hide
* Trim
* Face Set
Only Sculpt tools have a user facing change, even though this was
implemented in `WM_gesture_lasso_modal` and related methods. Other
modes may choose to add these settings and toggles.
## Implementation
The implemented functionality is similar to the Annotate tool in both
interpolation of the new point and drawing the UI hint that
stabilization is happening.
The `radius` and `factor` properties have similar bounds as the same
Brush properties. All values are stored on a per-operator level, not on
a scene or otherwise global tool level.

Calling `MEM_freeN` on data allocated with `MEM_new` is bad, since it
will not call a destructor matching the one invoked as part of
`MEM_new`.
While in practice cases fixed below were 'not a problem' currently, as
they are trivial Cpp types (and therefore their destructor is doing
nothing), `MEM_freeN` has no way to ensure it is dealing with such a
trivial data type, so allowing such mismatch is dirty and dangerous.
Note that almost all fixed cases look more like unintentional mistakes
(mis-usages of `MEM_new` instead of `MEM_cnew`).
NOTE: There is one more (known!) case in the asset code, which fix is
slightly less trivial, and will go through a separate PR.
NOTE: This is a by-product of some work to detect such invalid usages of
`MEM_freeN` on memory chunks allocated with `MEM_new`.

Basically this tries to make the API to stop and kill jobs more explicit &
consistent, so intent is expressed clearly & behavior as expected.
- Remove use of the job start callback address as identifier for the job.
6887dea786 already removed this pattern from the jobs system internals, this
commit also removes it from the API.
- Make stop & kill API and implementation consistent. E.g. don't stop/kill jobs
by either owner **or** type/callback in one function, and by owner (if
provided) **and** type/callback in another. Causes some small behavior
changes, documented inline.
- Use the same job type and API for all preview render jobs (change by Brecht).
There doesn't seem to be a need for the separated types, in fact the
separation might have caused some issues earlier (and added code complexity).
- Add/improve function documentation.
This does actually have subtle behavior changes that are known, see PR, but
they were investigated carefully and seem like implementing wanted behavior.

The callback-based identification was introduced before job types were added in
7b60529517. The job type should be a more predictable/sane way to identify jobs
that should be exclusive. Using anything else is confusing and non-obvious from
the API usage side. In fact it really confused me when working on #123027.
Checked all existing jobs to make sure behavior is unchanged. Found
two issues:
- `WM_JOB_TYPE_OBJECT_SIM_FLUID` is used for both
`fluid_bake_startjob()` and `fluid_free_startjob()`. It makes sense to
me that they would be exclusive though, so leaving it this way
(meaning they are exclusive now).
- Alembic and USD job types were reused, split them up now to not change
behavior.

This was due to the fact that the `scale_fac` was not set up correctly for
GPv3.
We now compute the right radius in pixels so we can set up the `scale_fac`.
Note that this removes the logic for GPv2, since it is no longer needed in
Blender 4.3.
All add-ons were being scanned at startup, while this didn't cause
errors it was noticeable with extensions where any errors in the
manifest were being reported at startup, even when running with
factory-startup (including blender's own tests).
Address two issues:
- The logic to "reset" add-ons, so as to match the preferences when
reverting or resetting preferences always ran on startup.
This occurred because a check for Python being initialized was
incorrectly used to detect that this wasn't the first time preferences
were being loaded (regression in [0]).
- Resetting add-ons scanned all add-ons (including disabled add-ons) to
ensure their module cache is up to date. Since this the cache is
lazily initialized, it's simpler to set it as uninitialized as
resetting the add-ons doesn't require the cached meta-data.
