Extract
- Add to Quick Favorites tooltip.
- "Mask", the name of a newly created mask (DATA_).
- "New" in the context of the new mask ID button.
- A few strings using BLI_STR_UTF8_ defines were not extracted.
Take the special characters out of the translation macros.
- "External" menu items from the filebrowser's Files context
menu (right-click on a file). These items were already extracted,
but not translated.
Improve
- Separate formatted error message "%s is not compatible with
["the specified", "any"] 'refresh' options" into two messages.
Disambiguate
- Use Action context for new F-modifiers' names. This is already used
for the "type" operator prop.
- Translate ImportHelper's default confirmation text using the
Operator context, as it uses the operator name which is extracted
with this context.
- "Scale" can be a noun, the scale of something, or a verb, to scale
something. The latter mostly uses the Operator context, so apply
this context to verbs, and the default contexts to nouns.
- "Scale Influence" can mean "Influence on Scale" (tracking
stabilization) and "to Scale the Influence" (dynamic paint canvas).
- "Object Line Art" as type of Line Art to add, as opposed to the
active object's Line Art settings.
- Float to Integer node: use NodeTree context for the node label, as
this is already extracted and used for the enum.
Do not translate
- Sequencer labels containing only a string formatting field.

Move all header file into namespace.
Unnecessary namespaces was removed from implementations file.
Part of forward declarations in header was moved in the top part
of file just to do not have a lot of separate namespaces.

This adds a new `Axes to Rotation` node which creates a new rotation.
In many cases, the primary and secondary axis inputs are a normal and
tangent of a mesh or curve. This provides a simpler and more direct way
to create this rotation compared to using two `Align Rotation to Vector` nodes.
This more direct way of computing the rotation also allows us to optimize
the case better.
The node rotates one axis (X, Y or Z) to the given primary axis direction. Then
it rotates around that primary direction to align the second axis to the given
secondary direction. Ideally, both input axes are orthogonal. However, the node
still creates the "best" rotation when they are not orthogonal. If one or the axes
is zero or both are (close to) parallel, the resulting rotation is unstable. There is
not too much the node can do to make it more stable.

This assertion was added in assumption that sizes of input argument are always correct.
But this is not such. More correct is to depend on assertions of span access methods.
The size of the multi-function parameters is only guaranteed to be large enough so that
every index in the mask can be accessed. It may be larger.

These nodes allow working with the raw values that make up a matrix.
This can be used to construct a 4x4 matrix directly, without using the
`Combine Transform` node. This allows building transforms with arbitrary
skew, or projection matrices.

A version of "Align Euler to Vector" with the rotation socket
instead of the vector Euler socket. Other than that, and a few
cleanups to use newer math functions, the node is the same.
The old node is just "Deprecated" for now. We could remove
it with versioning, but we can also wait to do that.
In a simple test this node is about 1.7 times faster than the old one.

With the matrix socket being introduced into geometry nodes, we
are starting to deal with more complex transforms like perspective
projection. For those matrices projecting a point is not as simple
as just matrix multiplication, there has to be an additional normalization
step after. To solve that in an intuitive way consistent with how it's
typically solved in code, add a new "Project Point" node.
The canonical use case for now is in combination with the mouse
position, viewport transform, and raycast nodes, to find where the
mouse clicked on the edited geometry.

Previously, this conversion would often result in invalid quaternions or
hit an assert in `normalized_to_quat_fast`. It's not super nice to convert
to euler as an intermediate step performance wise, but it seems to be
the easiest solution for now. Extracting rotations from matrices should
not be done all that often anyway.

Not all matrices are invertable (e.g. when a transformation matrix is has
a scale of zero), and it's sometimes important when a matrix is.
This also better specifies the behavior when the matrix is not invertable:
the identity matrix is returned.

For various reasons, the animation system can't properly update the node tree
so that the socket availability caused by changing node enum properties
propagates completely. So animating node properties that affect
socket visibility to change isn't possible without issues like crashes.
Unfortunately that wasn't disallowed before. In this commit there is
a balance of disabling animation on sockets that could reasonably expected
to affect socket visibility, and minimizing breaking changes.

This fixes the following name collisions:
* Compositor Box/Ellipse Mask node: `width` -> `mask_width`
(also renamed the `height` property accordingly)
* Shader AOV Output node: `name` -> `aov_name`
* Geometry Color node: `color` -> `value`.
Those are breaking changes unfortunately, because looking up those property
names yielded the node-specific and not the common property. Therefore, this is
targeted at `main` instead of `4.1`.

`sock_rotation` has higher priority (6) than the vector socket (4).
Hence inserting node between vector-vector link joins thorugh "rotation"
socket (`get_main_socket()` / `get_main_socket_priority()`).
This can be fixed by making "vector" input socket as default for link.
But this will break the link creation when node is inserted between
rotation-rotation link. It seems rotation is converted to vectors so
perhaps make sense to make "vector" as default socket for link.

Implements the design from #116067.
The socket type is called "Matrix" but it is often referred to as "Transform"
when that's what it is semantically. The attribute type is "4x4 Matrix" since
that's a lower level choice. Currently matrix sockets are always passed
around internally as `float4x4`, but that can be optimized in the future
when smaller types would give the same behavior.
A new "Matrix" utilities category has the following set of initial nodes"
- **Combine Transform**
- **Separate Transform**
- **Multiply Matrices**
- **Transform Direction**
- **Transform Vector**
- **Invert Matrix**
- **Transpose Matrix**
The nodes and socket type are behind an experimental flag for now,
which will give us time to make sure it's the right set of initial nodes.
The viewer node overlay doesn't support matrices-- they aren't supported
for rendering in general. They also aren't supported in the modifier interface
currently. But they are supported in the spreadsheet, where the value is
displayed in a tooltip.

In 4.1 we deprecate the `Rotate Euler` node in favor of the `Rotate Rotation`
node which uses the new rotation socket type. The node is not removed
(for now) because that would come with compatibility issues. More generally,
we'll likely run into the situation where nodes are deprecated more often in the
future, without actually removing them to keep compatibility. This patch improves
how such nodes are handled in the UI.
The patch does three things:
* Adds a new `Utilities > Deprecated` entry in the add node menu in geometry nodes.
* Moves search items which are deprecated to the bottom in the search results
(currently, this only works in English, can be fixed in bcon3).
* Adds a new `bNodeType->deprecation_notice` that will result in a deprecation
warning when the node is used.

All the option does internally is reverse the order of the rotations,
but this is the same as old "Rotate Euler" node, and it's a bit more
intuitive this way. Also use the same socket names, "Rotation" and
"Rotate By" which are much more intuitive.
Technically it would be better to not have to duplicate the multi-
function just to switch the order of the arguments. But the
evaluator assumes that the order always matches the socket
order currently.

This is meant as a replacement for the Rotate Euler node. Overall it
should be more performant, and the clarity given by the separate socket
type should help distinguish its purpose.
The Rotate Euler node is removed from search and the add menu by this
commit. In the future it can be versioned away. That isn't done now to
avoid a breaking API change and to make this commit less risky.

The previous commit introduced a new `RPT_()` macro to translate
strings which are not tooltips or regular interface elements, but
longer reports or statuses.
This commit uses the new macro to translate many strings all over the
UI.
Most of it is a simple replace from `TIP_()` or `IFACE_()` to
`RPT_()`, but there are some additional changes:
- A few translations inside `BKE_report()` are removed altogether
because they are already handled by the translation system.
- Messages inside `UI_but_disable()` are no longer translated
manually, but they are handled by a new regex in the translation
system.

Due to changes in the build environment shader_builder wasn't able to
compile on macOs. This patch reverts several recent changes to CMake files.
* dbb2844ed9
* 94817f64b9
* 1b6cd937ff
The idea is that in the near future shader_builder will run on the buildbot as
part of any regular build to ensure that changes to the CMake doesn't break
shader_builder and we only detect it after a few days.

This helps solving the problem encountered in #113553. The problem is that we
currently can't support link-drag-search for nodes which have a dynamic declaration.
With this patch, there is only a single `declare` function per node type, instead of
the separate `declare` and `declare_dynamic` functions. The new `declare` function
has access to the node and tree. However, both are allowed to be null. The final
node declaration has a flag for whether it depends on the node context or not.
Nodes that previously had a dynamic declaration should now create as much of
the declaration as possible that does not depend on the node. This allows code
like for link-drag-search to take those sockets into account even if the other
sockets are dynamic.
For node declarations that have dynamic types (e.g. Switch node), we can also
add extra information to the static node declaration, like the identifier of the socket
with the dynamic type. This is not part of this patch though.
I can think of two main alternatives to the approach implemented here:
* Define two separate functions for dynamic nodes. One that creates the "static
declaration" without node context, and on that creates the actual declaration with
node context.
* Have a single declare function that generates "build instructions" for the actual
node declaration. So instead of building the final declaration directly, one can for
example add a socket whose type depends on a specific rna path in the node.
The actual node declaration is then automatically generated based on the build
instructions. This becomes quite a bit more tricky with dynamic amounts of sockets
and introduces another indirection between declarations and what sockets the node
actually has.
I found the approach implemented in this patch to lead to the least amount of
boilerplate (doesn't require a seperate "build instructions" data structure) and code
duplication (socket properties are still only defined in one place). At the same time,
it offers more flexibility to how nodes can be dynamic.

Strings that include Latin1 encoding or corrupt UTF8 byte sequences
could read past the buffer bounds (stepping over the null terminator).
Resolve by passing in the string length.
Other changes to support non-UTF8 byte sequences:
- BLI_str_utf8_offset_{to/from}_index were accumulating
the UTF8 offset without accounting for non-UTF8 characters
which could cause a buffer underflow or enter an eternal loop.
- BLI_str_utf8_offset_to_index would read past the buffer bounds if the
offset passed in if it was in the middle of a UTF8 byte sequence.
Now that specific menus can be searched directly (see 7f9d51853c),
there is no need to maintain separate search functionality for adding
nodes. This PR removes the add node search. In a way this brings us
closer to the `NodeItem` situation before, but the setup is more
flexible since the menus are more standard and easier to customize.
In the few ways we customized the node search items before, this gives
us the same results as before. Overall the searching is less flexible,
but I think that is just a tradeoff we have to accept for the simplicity
of searching menus. In the future menus could be made more dynamic,
with each builtin node's menu path stored on the node type, similar to
assets. That might be a nice compromise. In the meantime this code
is just dead weight.

This was noted in code comments and checked in Python documentation
generation but not at build time.
Since these enums are identifiers that end up included in various places
enforce the `rna_enum_*_items` convention which was noted as
the convention but not followed strictly.
Partially reverts [0], avoids having to deal with multiple prefix types.

This PR adds an initial set of nodes using the new rotation socket.
6 nodes build rotations or convert them to other formats, a 7th rotates
a vector with a rotation, and the last inverts rotations.
The design task #109965 describes the choice to use separate nodes
for the rotation construction and separation operations. In the future,
a "Switch Node" operator (#111438) will help to make working with
these separated nodes faster.

- **Rotation to Axis Angle**
- **Combine Quaternion**
- **Separate Quaternion**
- **Euler to Rotation**

This commit allows both `rna_enum_` and `rna_node_`to be used for enum prefixes
This also fixes one enum by adding `rna_` to the prefix.
Together these changes fix the API documentation generation.
Including <iostream> or similar headers is quite expensive, since it
also pulls in things like <locale> and so on. In many BLI headers,
iostreams are only used to implement some sort of "debug print",
or an operator<< for ostream.
Change some of the commonly used places to instead include <iosfwd>,
which is the standard way of forward-declaring iostreams related
classes, and move the actual debug-print / operator<< implementations
into .cc files.
This is not done for templated classes though (it would be possible
to provide explicit operator<< instantiations somewhere in the
source file, but that would lead to hard-to-figure-out linker error
whenever someone would add a different template type). There, where
possible, I changed from full <iostream> include to only the needed
<ostream> part.
For Span<T>, I just removed print_as_lines since it's not used by
anything. It could be moved into a .cc file using a similar approach
as above if needed.
Doing full blender build changes include counts this way:
- <iostream> 1986 -> 978
- <sstream> 2880 -> 925
It does not affect the total build time much though, mostly because
towards the end of it there's just several CPU cores finishing
compiling OpenVDB related source files.

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
