Since we added auto DPI on Linux, on some systems the UI draws smaller than before
due to the monitor reporting DPI values like 88. Blender font drawing gives quite
blurry results for such slightly smaller DPI, apparently because the builtin font
isn't really designed for such small font sizes. As a workaround this clamps the
auto DPI to minimum 96, since the main case we are interested in supporting is
high DPI displays anyway.

Fix is a bit ugly, but cannot think of another solution for now, at
least this **should** not break anything else.
And now I go find myself a very remote, high and lonely mountain, climb
to its top, roar "I hate proxies!" a few times, and relax hearing the echos...
The absence of datablock properties "will certainly be resolved soon as the need for them is becoming obvious" said the [[http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.67/Python_Nodes|Python Nodes release notes]]. So this patch allows Python scripts to create ID Properties which reference datablocks.
This functionality is implemented for `PointerProperty` and now such properties can be created with Python.
In addition to the standard update callback, `PointerProperty` can have a `poll` callback (standard RNA) which is useful for search menus. For details see the test included in this patch.

For Windows 8.1 and X11 (Linux, BSD) now use the DPI specified by the operating
system, which previously only worked on macOS. For Windows this is handled per
monitor, for X11 this is based on Xft.dpi or xrandr --dpi. This should result
in appropriate font and button sizes by default in most cases.
The UI has been simplified to a single UI Scale factor relative to the automatic
DPI, instead of two DPI and Virtual Pixel Size settings. There is forward and
backwards compatibility for existing user preferences.

This adds the ability to switch between different application-configurations
without interfering with Blender's normal operation.
This commit doesn't include any templates,
so its mostly to allow collaboration for the Blender 101 project
and other custom configurations.
Application templates can be installed & selected from the file menu.
Other details:
- The `bl_app_template_utils` module handles template activation
(similar to `addon_utils`).
- The `bl_app_override` module is a general module
to assist scripts overriding parts of Blender in reversible way.
See docs:
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/advanced/app_templates.html
See patch: D2565
This is already called by wm_init_userdef, in old code
different initialization methods were used but now it's not needed.
Confusing since prefs are loaded in this function that don't initialize temp.
Internal change needed for template support.
Loading the user preferences first so it's possible
for preferences to control startup behavior.
In general it's useful to load preferences before data-files,
so we know security settings for eg.
This addresses an issue raised by D2453 -
that there was no way to check if operators are run
multiple times in a row.
Actions are still ignored that don't cause an UNDO event.
It might be useful to keep the search string stored in some cases, but
in most it's not useful but confusing. Especially if the string is taken
from a menu showing a different enum.
When rendering multi-view in side-by-side or top-bottom mode, we squash
the UI to half of its size and draw it twice on screen. That means the
cursor coordinates used for UI interaction don't match what's visible on
screen.
This commit is a little event system hack (tm) to fix this. It has some
small glitches with cursor grabbing, but nothing to bad.
We'll also use it for viewport HMD support.
D1350, thanks for the feedback @dfelinto!
Can't see any reason to call AUD exit early in WM_exit, that's a
low-level module that has no dependency on anything else in Blender, but
is dependency of some other parts of Blender, so it should rather be
exited late in the process!
Better to have clear way to tell whether flag is parameter for
BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(), parameter for its callback function, or
return value from this callback function.
Use Main->relations in BKE_library_foreach_ID_link(), when possible
(i.e. IDWALK_READONLY is set), and if the data is available of course.
This is quite minor optimization, no sensible improvements are expected,
but does not hurt either to avoid potentially tens of looping over e.g.
objects constraints and modifiers, or heap of drivers...
This is a regression introduced in rB5bd9e832
It looks more like a hack than a proper fix, but the shader logic
changed a lot for blender2.8, so I would rather do the elegant fix
there, while leaving master working.
If we ever do a 2.78b (or 2.79) this should get in.
