You can now type to search directly in the `Add` menu.
Bit unfortunate though that this is not mapped to any shortcut in the
`Industry Compatible` keymap anymore
I think we could just add TAB back (but this time, mapped to
`NODE_MT_add`).

This PR implements an initial drawing tool that can already be used for testing.
While this is not fully feature complete (compared to the current grease pencil draw tool) the following is already implemented:
* Pressure support for radius and opacity.
* Material color and vertex color support.
* New active smoothing algorithm based on curve fitting.
* Simplify algorithm as a post-process step.
Some deliberate limitations include:
* The drawing plane is always the front plane. Drawing on surfaces is also not supported.
*
The current approach has not been optimized for performance yet. The goal was to have a straightforward implementation
first and then focus on performance later.
There are numerous parameters in the code that are hard-coded for now. These should be exposed at some point, potentially as user settings.

Make the Ctrl+ACCENT_GRAVE hotkey call the 'show all bone collections'
operator (`armature.collection_show_all`), instead of 'show all armature
layers' (`armature.layers_show_all`).
This was the last reference to `armature.layers_show_all`, and the operator
has been removed.
Based on feedback from users this PR brings back the most commonly used
brush shortcuts in sculpt mode. Essentially reverting some of the
changes from #108712
There are multiple reasons behind this decision:
- Anyone coming from a previous version will instinctively reassign the
brush shortcuts to the same keys as before, introducing shortcut
conflicts as a result. Having the shortcuts there by default makes this
case less likely as it makes available brush shortcuts more obvious.
- The default `paint.brush_select` operator is hard to set up manually
and is offering behavior that isn't available with the
`wm.tool_set_by_id` which is far easier to create from the UI
- There are too many brushes available to know which ones are the most
common ones.
There are some additional changes:
- `S` is now used for the Smooth brush.
- Draw brush is now assigned to `V` to avoid conflicts on `X`.
- `Shift T` is using the Scrape instead of Flatten brush.
- `C` is using the Clay Strip instead of Clay brush.
Removing the brush shortcuts can be revisited later once the brush
management is overhauled.
Ref !112898.
Some small adjustments based on user requests from the community.
- The shortcut on 4 for Object Mode was much preferred.
As a compromise the mode pie menu moved to 5.
- The region selection shortcut from the default keymap was not added.
It's now available on Ctrl Shift Alt LMB.
Ref !112628.
This is a followup fixes related to #105298
This PR adds shortcuts to toggle the sidebar, toolbar, channels and
other regions across various editors with the Ctrl-LeftBracket &
Ctrl-RightBracket shortcuts.
An additional shortcut to toggle the Asset Shelf in the 3D Viewport via
Shift Spacebar was also added. This shortcut will be important for
various workflows in the future.
To avoid shortcut conflicts and improve consistency, Ctrl-L is now
consistently being used for select_linked operations.
Ref !112042.
- "Tapping Alt...": remove newline in tooltip.
- Add descriptions for the From Left and From Right of the Shear
Keyframes operator's direction items, instead of just "foo":
- "Shear the keys using the left key as reference", and
- "Shear the keys using the right key as reference".
- "Affects the value" -> "Affect", use the imperative.
- "Increase or decrease the value of selected keys \n
in relationship to their average"
-> "Scale selected key values by their combined average":
remove the newline and rephrase the unclear description. New
description by Harley Acheson.
- "Redefine equalizer graphs": this is an operator name, it should be
title case.
- "USD Skeleton Import" warning: inconsistent whitespace.
- "%s: Joint weights and joint indices size mismatch size mismatch for
prim %s": remove duplicated "size mismatch".
- "USD export: couldn't copy texture tile from %s to %s": remove
duplicate whitespace, change "couldn't" to "could not" to respect
the style guide.
- "Temp. Diff." -> expand the abbreviation to "Temperature Difference"
- "Registering node tree class:" do not use formatting just to reduce
redundancy in a few messages, but write it explicitly each time.
This is more legible, and much better for translations.
- "Absolute time alignment while translating" -> "Absolute time
alignment when transforming keyframes" because this applies to all
transforms, not translation only.
- "# characters defines the [...] length of frame numbers" ->
"define" (typo), "padding" is more specific than length.

Currently retiming is quite awkward, when you need to retime multiple
strips strips in sync. It is possible to use meta strips, but this is
still not great. This is resolved by implementing selection.
General changes:
Gizmos are removed, since they are designed to operate only on active
strip and don't support selection.
Transform operator code is implemented for retiming data, which allows
more sophisticated manipulation.
Instead of drawing marker-like symbols, keyframes are drawn to
represent retiming data. Retiming handles are now called keys. To have
consistent names, DNA structures have been renamed.
Retiming data is drawn on strip as overlay.
UI changes:
Retiming tool is removed. To edit retiming data, press Ctrl + R, select
a key and move it. When retiming is edited, retiming menu and
context menu shows more relevant features, like making transitions.
Strip and retiming key selection can not be combined. It is possible to
use box select operator to select keys, if any key is selected.
Otherwise strips are selected.
Adding retiming keys is possible with I shortcut or from menu.
Retiming keys are always drawn at strip left and right boundary. These
keys do not really exist until they are selected. This is to simplify
retiming of strips that are resized. These keys are called "fake keys"
in code.
API changes:
Functions, properties and types related to retiming handles are renamed
to retiming keys:
retiming_handle_add() -> retiming_key_add()
retiming_handle_move() -> retiming_key_move()
retiming_handle_remove() -> retiming_key_remove()
retiming_handles -> retiming_keys
RetimingHandle -> RetimingKey
Retiming editing "mode" is activated by setting `Sequence.show_retiming_keys`.

Adds the ability to set text cursor position in the Console editor
by clicking with the mouse and many other expected operations such as
cut, select all & deselect on text entry.
Ref !108626
Replace the 'armature layers' operator (which would toggle visibility of
armature layers) with the 'bone collections' menu (which allows assigning
to and unassigning from bone collections). The functionality of these
operators is quite different, but it unifies the behaviour between
armature pose and edit modes.
Selecting which bone collections are visible in the 3D Viewport may be
reintroduced after nestable bone collections are implemented. Otherwise
the list of bone collections will likely become unwieldy.
In armature edit mode, replace the 'bone layers' operator with the 'move
to bone collection' operator. This operator now works in both pose mode
and edit mode, and is available with the 'M' hotkey in either mode.
Remove the Ctrl+G shortcut (remnant of the bone group assignment operator),
and change the 'Pose / Bone Collections' menu so that it handles linked
and overridden data properly. Shift+M now shows that menu too.
Fixed by using a slightly transparent white color that blends
correctly with the background of text inputs and list items.
Also use the same colors in the Text Editor for consistency in both
Dark and Light themes.
After Renaming "Bake Curve" to "Samples to Keys" in #111049,
the name of the `ACTION_OT_sample` operator needed renaming.
That is because the word "sample" is now used to describe FCurve
data in an uneditable state.
Rename to `ACTION_OT_bake_keys` since baking is the
term used in animation to describe the action of creating dense key data.

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 operator is a combination of the previous delete operator `frame` mode
and the `active_frames_delete_all` operator.
This also add the delete menu and key binds.
Breaking change since the operator name changes.
Users have been confused about this for a long time.
The term "bake" in the context of animation usually means
to add keys at a given interval without changing the shape of the curve.
The fact that the curve isn't editable after baking was the main issue.
In order to stop the confusion the operator is renamed to "Keys to Samples"
to indicate that there is a conversion happening and that there are no keys afterwards.
The Un-Bake operator has also been changed to "Samples to Keys"
The operator description has been updated to mention that after the conversion
the data is no longer editable.
The "Bake Sound to F-Curves" has been renamed to "Create Samples from Sound"

This was needed while testing #96544, now all curve picking selects
bezier knots without handles - the option can be removed.
This is a functional change for the 2.7x keymap, however selecting
bezier points with handles isn't a useful difference to keep.
In the property editor "Modifier" tab, open the new modifier
from 6da4b87661 menu with the Shift-A shortcut.
A new operator is added that opens the menu because there
doesn't seem to be a way to make the shortcut dependent
on the property editor tab otherwise.

Add an update function that ensures the key-configuration is reloaded.
Also prefer passing individual options instead of passing in
PreferencesExperimental to the key-map since it's no longer clear
which options impact shortcuts.
Remove experimental options & make them default:
- Tweak Select: Mouse Select & Move
- Tweak Tool: Left Mouse Select & Move
Changes:
- LMB press selects the element
(unless it's already selected - in that case no selection takes place).
- LMB drag moves the selection.
- LMB click selects the element
(deselecting all others).
Implications:
- This makes it possible to tweak more than one item at a time.
- It is no longer possible to set the 3D cursor with LMB when the tweak
tool is active.
Details:
- Shift-LMB remains unchanged.
- RMB selection remains unchanged.
- Blender 2.7 key-map remains unchanged.
Addresses design task #96544.
Armature layers (the 32 little dots) and bone groups are replaced with
Bone Collections:
- Bone collections are stored on the armature, and have a name that is
unique within that armature.
- An armature can have an arbitrary number of bone collections (instead
of the fixed 32 layers).
- Bones can be assigned to zero or more bone collections.
- Bone collections have a visibility setting, just like objects in scene
collections.
- When a bone is in at least one collection, and all its collections in
are hidden, the bone is hidden. In other cases (in any visible
collection, or in no collection at all), the bone visibility is
determined by its own 'hidden' flag.
- For now, bone collections cannot be nested; they are a flat list just
like bone groups were. Nestability of bone collections is intended to
be implemented in a later 4.x release.
- Since bone collections are defined on the armature, they can be used
from both pose mode and edit mode.
Versioning converts bone groups and armature layers to new bone
collections. Layers that do not contain any bones are skipped. The old
data structures remain in DNA and are unaltered, for limited forward
compatibility. That way at least a save with Blender 4.0 will not
immediately erase the bone group and armature layers and their bone
assignments.
Shortcuts:
- M/Shift+M in pose/edit mode: move to collection (M) and add to
collection (shift+M). This works similar to the M/Shift+M menus for
objects & scene collections.
- Ctrl+G in pose mode shows a port of the old 'bone groups' menu. This
is likely to be removed in the near future, as the functionality
overlaps with the M/Shift+M menus.
This is the first commit of a series; the bone collections feature will
be improved before the Blender 4.0 release. See #108941 for more info.

Since the 5e1470d1b3 / 0f51b5b599 the `fmodifier_add` operator has
moved to the Channel menu in the Graph Editor and also the channels
context menu in the channels region. The shortcut was not working in the
channels region though since the operator was only in the keymap for the
main region (not the channels region).
Now move the keymap entry to the generic keymap of the Graph Editor so
it works in both regions.

Fix some remaining consistency issues for selection shortcuts for both
left and right click select.
Based on design of #105298
Grease Pencil:
Instead of using `Alt Select` shortcuts for selecting whole strokes,
these are now following existing standards with `L` and `Shift L` from
select linked pick operations.
`Alt Select` keys are instead used for selecting individual components
in modes that use brushes just like [0].
Regular selection like `Select` and `Shift Select` are now always mapped
to ensure that all keymap configurations are able to select individual
components in every mode.
This does not cause conflicting behavior with brushes.
Lasso Select shortcuts on `Ctrl Alt` and `Shift Ctrl Alt` have been
removed. These were duplicates and are not needed.
Mesh Sculpt Mode:
Mesh sculpt mode uses correct lasso masking shortcuts in both right and
left click select. These are now the same as lasso selection shortcuts
in other modes.
Ref !110960.

For speed and consistency with other areas in Blender like Outliner,
UILists, animation channels, etc.
This is additionally to F2 (Enter in Industry Compatible keymap),
that shortcut is still valid.

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.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
The changes in this keymap are much more involved.
If any shortcut isn't mentioned, that means it is unchanged.
General:
- All brush shortcuts have been removed for free custom mapping
- `S` & `U` are now consistently mapped for Brush size & strength
- Redundant shortcuts have been removed such as
- Line Session drawing (In GP Draw Tool)
- Select Alternate in GP
- Quadriflow Remesh (In Mesh Sculpt Mode)
- Box Hide (In Mesh Sculpt Mode)
- Dynamic Topology Toggle (In Mesh Sculpt Mode)
- Mask Overlay (In Mesh Sculpt Mode)
- Removed Lasso Mask/Select shortcuts (This keymap is mainly using the Tools instead. Easy to add back if needed.)
Mode Switching (Global change):
Easier mode switching access for any workflow.
- `123` = switch selection/mask modes for the **current mode**. If in object mode, it will first switch to edit mode (Previously this would always switch to edit mode)
- `4` = Mode switching pie menu (previously `4-7` for individual modes)
- `Tilde` = Transfer Mode (Previously not mapped. Useful for instant object switching while keeping the current mode)
- `5-0` = Unassigned

Multiple Modes were missing these shortcuts.
- `Shift` `LMB` = Smooth Brush
- `Ctrl` `LMB` = Inverted Brush
- `Shift` `Alt` `LMB` = Set Selection
- `Shift` `Alt` `Ctrl` `LMB` = Toggle-Extend Selection
Brush Size vs Select Linked:
These were previously in direct conflict. Now they are both distinct and based on other DCC software.
- `[` = Decrease Brush Size
- `]` = Increase Brush Size
- `Alt` `dbl LMB` = Select Linked Pick
- `Ctrl` `Alt` `dbl LMB` = Deselect Linked Pick
- `Ctrl` `L` = Select Linked
Select & Mask:
- `Q` = Cycle Masking/Selection Tools
- `Ctrl` `A` = Mask/Select Pie Menu (Draw, Paint, Sculpt Modes)
- `Alt` `A` = Auto-Masking Pie Menu (Mesh & GP Sculpt Mode)
- `Shift A` = Expand Mask (Mesh Sculpt Mode) / Grow Selection (Curve Sculpt Mode)
- `Shift` `Alt` `A` = Expand Mask by Normals (Mesh Sculpt Mode)
Face Sets & Visibility:
Previously missing shortcuts.
- `Shift` `W` = Face Set Expand
- `Shift` `Alt` `W` = Active Face Set Expand
- `Ctrl` `W` = Face Set Edit Pie Menu
- `Page Up` = Grow Active Face Set
- `Page Down` = Shrink Active Face Set
- `H` = Hide Active Face Set
- `Shift` `H` = Hide Inactive Face Sets / Show everything
- `Ctrl` `H` = Hide Masked Geometry
Transforming:
For Sculpt and Weight Painting modes. Previously missing
- `C` = Cursor Tool
- `W` = Move Tool
- `E` = Rotate Tool
- `R` = Scale Tool
- `T` = Transform Tool
- `Shift` `RMB` = Set Cursor / Set Transform Pivot in Sculpt Mode
Sculpting:
Consistent and easier to access shortcuts for remeshing and subdiv level .
- `Shift` `D` = Subdivision level Down (Previously on `Pg Down`)
- `D` = Subdivision level Up (Previously on `Pg Up`)
- `Shift` `Ctrl` `D` = Voxel Size / Dyntopo Size
- `Ctrl` `D` = Voxel Remesh / Dyntopo Flood Fill
Adding missing shortcuts
Painting:
Fixing various missing or inconsistent shortcuts.
- `Backspace` = Set Color/Weight
- `I` = Sample Color/Weight
- `Alt` `I` = Sample Vertex Group
- `Alt` `Ctrl` `I` = Vertex Group Lock Pie
- `X` = Swap Colors (Previously missing in Sculpt Mode)
Grease Pencil:
Adding many missing shortcuts.
- `Shift S` = Animation Menu (Previously on `I` and missing outside of Draw Mode)
- `Shift` `Alt` `S` = Insert Blank Keyframe
- `Alt` `H` = Unhide Layers
- `Ctrl` `H` = Hide Active Layer
- `Shift` H = Hide Inactive Layers
- `Y` = Active Layer Menu
- `Shift` `Y` = Merge Layer Down
- `Alt` `Y` = Material Menu
- `Alt` `Backspace`/`Delete` = Delete Active Keyframe (Previously on `D` `Backspace`/`Delete`)
Other:
Adding missing shortcuts.
- `MMB` for panning in the User Interface (Highly requested)
- `Shift F` = Center View to Mouse (Replacing Frame Selected(All Regions) shortcut)
- `D` = Annotate
- `L` = Toggle Stabilize Stroke (Previously on `Shift` `S`)
- `Ctrl F` = Weight radial control in weight painting modes
