There are two operators added, which are available via a special
content menu next to the plane track image selector:
- New Image from Plane Marker
- Update Image from Plane Marker
The former one creates an image from pixels which the active plane
track marker "sees" at the current frame and sets it as the plane
track's image.
The latter one instead of creating the new image data-block updates
the image in-place.
This allows to create unwarped texture from a billboard from footage.
The intent is to allow this image to be touched up and re-projected
back to the footage with an updated content.
Available from a plane track image context menu, as well as from the
Track menu.

This modules handles renderpasses allocation and filling. Also handles
blitting to viewport framebuffer and render result reading.
Changes against the old implementation:
- the filling of the renderpasses happens all at once requiring
only 1 geometry pass.
- The filtering is optimized with weights precomputed on CPU and
reuse of neighboor pixels.
- Only one accumulation buffer for renderpasses (no ping-pong).
- Accumulation happens in one pass for every passes using a single
dispatch or fullscreen triangle pass.
TAA and history reprojection is not yet implemented.
AOVs support is present but with a 16 AOV limit for now.
Cryptomatte is not yet implemented.

This commit adds a new face nearest snapping mode, adds new snapping
options, and (lightly) refactors code around snapping.
The new face nearest snapping mode will snap transformed geometry to the
nearest surface in world space. In contrast, the original face snapping
mode uses projection (raycasting) to snap source to target geometry.
Face snapping therefore only works with what is visible, while nearest
face snapping can snap geometry to occluded parts of the scene. This new
mode is critical for retopology work, where some of the target mesh
might be occluded (ex: sliding an edge loop that wraps around the
backside of target mesh).
The nearest face snapping mode has two options: "Snap to Same Target"
and "Face Nearest Steps". When the Snap to Same Object option is
enabled, the selected source geometry will stay near the target that it
is nearest before editing started, which prevents the source geometry
from snapping to other targets. The Face Nearest Steps divides the
overall transformation for each vertex into n smaller transformations,
then applies those n transformations with surface snapping interlacing
each step. This steps option handles transformations that cross U-shaped
targets better.
The new snapping options allow the artist to better control which target
objects (objects to which the edited geometry is snapped) are considered
when snapping. In particular, the only option for filtering target
objects was a "Project onto Self", which allowed the currently edited
mesh to be considered as a target. Now, the artist can choose any
combination of the following to be considered as a target: the active
object, any edited object that isn't active (see note below), any non-
edited object. Additionally, the artist has another snapping option to
exclude objects that are not selectable as potential targets.
The Snapping Options dropdown has been lightly reorganized to allow for
the additional options.
Included in this patch:
- Snap target selection is more controllable for artist with additional
snapping options.
- Renamed a few of the snap-related functions to better reflect what
they actually do now. For example, `applySnapping` implies that this
handles the snapping, while `applyProject` implies something entirely
different is done there. However, better names would be
`applySnappingAsGroup` and `applySnappingIndividual`, respectively,
where `applySnappingIndividual` previously only does Face snapping.
- Added an initial coordinate parameter to snapping functions so that
the nearest target before transforming can be determined(for "Snap to
Same Object"), and so the transformation can be broken into smaller
steps (for "Face Nearest Steps").
- Separated the BVH Tree getter code from mesh/edit mesh to its own
function to reduce code duplication.
- Added icon for nearest face snapping.
- The original "Project onto Self" was actually not correct! This option
should be called "Project onto Active" instead, but that only matters
when editing multiple meshes at the same time. This patch makes this
change in the UI.

Patch implements better way to control playback speed than it is
possible to do with speed effect. Speed factor property can be set in
Time panel.
There are 2 layers of control:
Option to retime movie to match scene FPS rate.
Custom speed factor to control playback rate.
Since playback rate is strip property, it is now possible to manipulate
strip as normal one even if it is retimed.
To facilitate manipulation, some functions need to consider speed factor
and apply necessary corrections to strip offset or strip start. These
corrections may need to be float numbers, so start and offsets must be
float as well.
Sound strips now use speed factor instead of pitch. This means, that
strips will change length to match usable length. In addition, it is
possible to group movie and sound strip and change speed of meta strip.
The mask is expected to be always be displayed smooth, and the
option mainly existed for some legacy drivers. IF smooth drawing
causes issues it should be fixed in the drawing code, not as an
option in the interface.

The existing "Combined" overlay is used like before (covering everything

Adds all the basic functionality needed for grid views. They display
items in a grid of rows and columns, typically with a preview image and
a label underneath. Think of the main region in the Asset Browser.
Current features:
- Active item
- Notifier listening (also added this to the tree view)
- Performance: Skip adding buttons that are not scrolled into view
(solves performance problems for big asset libraries, for example).
- Custom item size
- Preview items (items that draw a preview with a label underneath)
- Margins between items scale so the entire region width is filled with
column, rather than leaving a big empty block at the right if there's
not enough space for another column (like the File and current Asset
Browser does it).
- "Data-View Item" theme colors. Not shown in the UI yet.
No user visible changes expected since the grid views aren't used for
anything yet.
This was developed as part of a rewrite of the Asset Browser UI
(`asset-browser-grid-view` branch), see T95653. There's no reason to
keep this part in a branch, continuing development in master makes
things easier.
Grid and tree views have a lot of very similar code, so I'm planning to
unify them to a degree. I kept things separate for the start to first
find out how much and what exactly makes sense to override.
There were two problems here:
1) Console warnings due to brush was None.
2) It was impossible to recreate a brush.
This patch fixes both issues and it is now possible to recreate any brush.

Add three operators to the Collections properties panel:
- `object.instance_offset_to_cursor`, which is already available from
the Object properties panel. The operator works on the active
collection, though, so it's weird to not have it in the Collections
panel.
- `object.instance_offset_from_object` is a new operator, which performs
the same operation as above, but then based on the active object's
evaluated world position.
- `object.instance_offset_to_cursor` is also new, and performs the
opposite of the first operator: it moves the 3D cursor to the
collection's instance offset.
The first two operators make it easier to set the instance offset. The
last operator makes it possible to actually see the offset in the 3D
viewport; drawing it using some overlay could also work, but that would
be more effort to get right, and then snapping the 3D cursor would still
be useful.
The operators are placed in a popup menu, as to not clutter the
interface too much with various buttons.

This commit adds a float selection to curve control points or curves,
a sculpt tool to paint the selection, and uses the selection influence
in the existing sculpt brushes.
The selection is the inverse of the "mask" from mesh sculpt mode
currently. That change is described in more detail here: T97903
Since some sculpt tools are really "per curve" tools, they use the
average point selection of all of their points. The delete brush
considers a curve selected if any of its points have a non-zero
selection.
There is a new option to choose the selection domain, which affects how
painting the selection works. You can also turn the selection off by
clicking on the active domain.
Sculpt brushes can be faster when the selection is small, because
finding selected curves or points is generally faster than the
existing brush intersection and distance checks.
The main limitation currently is that we can't see the selection in the
viewport by default. For now, to see the selection one has to add a
simple material to the curves object as shown in the differential
revision. And one has to switch to Material Preview in the 3d view.
