We had a short discussion on this change. "Grease Pencil Layer" is
just a bit too long, especially in the UI. Even though "Layer" might be
ambiguous, it shouldn't be in the context of geometry nodes. There are
currently no other "Layers" and if there were, using the same domain
name could be fine (just like we reuse the point domain for e.g. vertices
in meshes and control points in curves).
This also renames the internal enum to `ATTR_DOMAIN_LAYER`

Update to the new naming convention for `Light Probes`:
`Reflection Cubemap` -> `Sphere`
`Reflection Plane` -> `Plane`
`Irradiance Grid` -> `Volume`
Note that this breaks the Python API (`bpy.types.LightProbe.type`).

Caused by 6a49041be3 .
Above commit checks an existing nameproperty for collection items, but
it does so in a way that it only checks the "parent" type. If these are
"subclassed" though, we might not have the nameproperty defined on the
"parent" class (but on the subclass instead).
Code would then error out with e.g. "FreestyleLineStyle.color_modifiers
does not support string lookups".
In the case of the report the following happened.
- linestyle modifiers (`LineStyleModifier`) can be any of:
-- `color_modifiers` / `LineStyleColorModifier`
-- `alpha_modifiers` / `LineStyleAlphaModifier`
-- `thickness_modifiers` / `LineStyleThicknessModifier`
-- `geometry_modifiers` / `LineStyleGeometryModifier`
But all of the above have subtypes, e.g.
`LineStyleColorModifier_AlongStroke`,
`LineStyleColorModifier_DistanceFromCamera`, ...
Currently, the `nameproperty` is not defined e.g. on the
`LineStyleColorModifier` (but instead on the subtypes).
Prior to 6a49041be3 (without
`RNA_property_collection_lookup_string_has_nameprop` in place),
`pyrna_prop_collection_subscript_str` could still actually find the
nameprop because it iterates into the collection and got it on the
actual Item (`LineStyleColorModifier_DistanceFromCamera` instead of
`LineStyleColorModifier`).
So while it might be possible to refine
`RNA_property_collection_lookup_string_has_nameprop` to descend into
subclasses (I didnt find an obvious way though other than scanning all
existing modifiers [not modifier types -- we would need a way to find
all types that inherit from e.g. `LineStyleColorModifier`] which kind of
defeats the purpose of checking this early), this PR moves the name
definition from the subclass to the parent class (so way from
`rna_def_modifier_type_common`) -- and this way,
`RNA_property_collection_lookup_string_has_nameprop` can properly pick
up the nameprop. It does a bit of code duplication though.

Making some liboverride local will break/corrupt liboverride hierarchies
in many cases. So that function (or its caller, in some cases) need to
call #BKE_lib_override_library_main_hierarchy_root_ensure to re-validate
(and re-generate if needed) the liboverride hierarchy roots.
This implements the core changes for this design: https://devtalk.blender.org/t/grease-pencil-integration-into-geometry-nodes/31220
The changes include:
* Add `CustomData` for layer attributes
* Add attribute support for the `GreasePencilComponent` to read/write layer attributes. Also introduces a `Layer` domain.
* Implement a `GreasePencilLayerFieldContext` and make `GeometryFieldContext` work with grease pencil layers.
* Implement `Set Position` node for `Grease Pencil`.
Note: These changes are only accessible/visible with the `Grease Pencil 3.0` experimental flag enabled.

This PR reuses the scene specific reflection probe resolution for all
reflection light probes in the scene. The target is to have a automatic
detection for the resolution. But as long as we don't have a mechanism
for detection it is better to not introduce a new UI element that will
be removed within the foreseen future.
This setting is currently used by EEVEE and EEVEE-Next. EEVEE supports
resolutions upto 4096px. This will be clamped to 2048 when using
EEVEE-Next.
The motivation for this is that EEVEE-Next will soon replace
EEVEE and 4096 can then be removed from the choices that the user can
made. Adding as separate option could need synchronization, and that
option would also be temporary as it will be removed by the resolution
detection mechanism.

This PR is contains the initial capture pipeline for planar probes.
It requires work to generate the correct view to capture and to include
the result during ray tracing. These will be developed in a separate PR.
This PR detects if a planar probe is active in the scene. If this is
the case the planar probe pipeline will be activated. During rendering
this is done by querying the depsgraph, during viewport drawing this
is done during sync. If an planar probe is detected and the pipeline
wasn't activated. The pipeline will be activated and the sampling
will be reset to ensure the pipeline is filled with all objects.
Per object the user can set the visibility of the object in planar
reflections.

For a reflection plane the resolution and clipping offset can be set.
EDIT: Resolution option was removed because too complex to
implement with the little time we have at the moment.

Update the label of the "Bone Pose" theme setting to "Bone Pose Selected".
That is now consistent with the already-existing "Bone Pose Active"
label.
Also add tooltips that clarify what these theme colors are used for.
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.

Dummy mistake in commit(s) a few months ago that fixed/improved handling
of parenting between objects in liboverride context, trying to access an
Enum propoerty as an int one...
This will have to be backported to 3.6LTS as well.
It's easy to forget that this variable has to be static for correctness,
so better allocate it in the function directly instead everywhere where
it is called.
The goal of this refactor is to reduce the amount of boilerplate code that is
necessary to have a dynamic number of sockets on nodes. This is achieved
by making the code more reusable. Currently, only the simulation and repeat
zone nodes make use of this. However, even with just those two, the amount
of code is reduced already. The benefit of this refactor will become even more
significant as more nodes support a dynamic number of sockets. For example,
the bake node and for-each zone will also benefit from this.
We could probably make some of the utility functions non-templates using type
erasure. This could reduce the compilation overhead when the number of nodes
with item arrays increases. The main reason for why everything is templated
now is that it made this refactor easier. Without this patch, all the code was
essentially "manually templated". So the implementations look still similar to
before now, just that concrete types are replaced with template parameters.
No user-visible changes are expected.

This patch changes the interpolation algorithm utilized by the Keying
Screen node to a Gaussian Radial Basis Function Interpolation. This is
proposed because the current Voronoi triangulation based interpolation
has the following properties:
- Not temporally stable since the triangulation can abruptly change as
tracking markers change position.
- Not smooth in the mathematical sense, which is also readily visible in
the artists sense.
- Computationally expensive due to the triangulation and naive
rasterization algorithm.
On the other hand, the RBF interpolation method is temporally stable and
continuous, smooth and infinitely differentiable, and relatively simple
to compute assuming low number of markers, which is typically the case
for keying screen objects.
This breaks backward compatibility, but the keying screen is only used
as a secondary input for keying in typical compositor setups, so one
should expect minimal difference in outputs.

Disambiguate:
- Rename "Near" to "Proximity" as a particle event type, because using
an adjective in this context is inconsistent and sounds
strange (even in English IMO).
Extract:
- "Skip" (Geometry nodes Simulation node output socket)
- "Bake" (Directory path to geometry nodes bake files in the modifier
UI)
- " (Recovered)" (File information in title bar)

This reverts 690a3ddf7e and makes it so that we don't even try
to generate the correct declaration for templated functions instead.
The reason for generating these declarations was to detect errors
when calling functions with the wrong signature. However, we still
get compile time errors when trying to call the function with wrong
parameters.
This helps simplifying the code in #113114 even more.
The goal is to allow passing template parameters in the string that is passed
to `RNA_def_function` in rna code. This can reduce redundancy (e.g. when used
together with #113114). Only "simple" template parameters are supported,
i.e. only ones that do not contain a nested `,`.
Function names passed to e.g. `RNA_def_property_pointer_funcs` and
`RNA_def_property_update` happen to support this already without further changes.

For text objects, the CharInfo mat_nr material index used to start at 1
(not at zero like for meshes or nurbs).
Code was mostly considering this (but not in all places, so material
index handling (removing/moving) could still go wrong.
As an alternative to !109746 (where it was made sure all places would
make the right assumption about mat_nr starting at 1), this PR now
changes the mat_nr to be zero-based.
This is more in line with other places handling material indices.
Versioning code is in place to properly convert old files.

When the type of an enum is known (char, short, int .. etc)
check the values used in the EnumPropertyItem are valid for that type.
This would have made the error from [0] fail at build time.
