The main goal of these changes are to improve static (i.e. build-time)
checks on whether a given data can be allocated and freed with `malloc`
and `free` (C-style), or requires proper C++-style construction and
destruction (`new` and `delete`).
* Add new `MEM_malloc_arrayN_aligned` API.
* Make `MEM_freeN` a template function in C++, which does static assert on
type triviality.
* Add `MEM_SAFE_DELETE`, similar to `MEM_SAFE_FREE` but calling
`MEM_delete`.
The changes to `MEM_freeN` was painful and useful, as it allowed to fix a bunch
of invalid calls in existing codebase already.
It also highlighted a fair amount of places where it is called to free incomplete
type pointers, which is likely a sign of badly designed code (there should
rather be an API to destroy and free these data then, if the data type is not fully
publicly exposed). For now, these are 'worked around' by explicitly casting the
freed pointers to `void *` in these cases - which also makes them easy to search for.
Some of these will be addressed separately (see blender/blender!134765).
Finally, MSVC seems to consider structs defining new/delete operators (e.g. by
using the `MEM_CXX_CLASS_ALLOC_FUNCS` macro) as non-trivial. This does not
seem to follow the definition of type triviality, so for now static type checking in
`MEM_freeN` has been disabled for Windows. We'll likely have to do the same
with type-safe `MEM_[cm]allocN` API being worked on in blender/blender!134771

In the past, around the time that 2.80 was released, 4a08b974f4
introduced the idea of filtering out certain editor changes inside
the paint modes and edit mode (e.g. changing brush sizes in the editor).
This commit is the first in a series to attempt to refine this behavior
so that only certain editor settings are filtered out from the undo
stack.
In total, it does the following:
* Adds the Brush datablock to the list of IDs that do not have undo
pushes.
* Adds support to filter out RNA structs that do not have the
`STRUCT_UNDO` property applied (currently, just the 3D Cursor).
This has the following effects:
* Changing brush settings inside the Image Editor no longer causes
undo pushes, becoming consistent with the other paint modes.
* Changing brush settings while in object mode in the outliner data
block view no longer causes undo pushes.

During idle time, just moving your mouse into an editor, the Status Bar
only shows operations attached to mouse events. Hovering into
Properties shows an item on the left mouse called "Set Active
Modifier". This is always shown because it is an internal operator
always running in that area. This PR just skips OPTYPE_INTERNAL
operators for this idle display.

Though "Point Cloud" written as two words is technically correct and should be used in the UI, as one word it's typically easier to write and parse when reading. We had a mix of both before this patch, so better to unify this as well.
This commit also renames the editor/intern/ files to remove pointcloud_ prefix.
point_cloud was only preserved on the user facing strings:
* is_type_point_cloud
* use_new_point_cloud_type

Add a dedicated callback to duplicate the key for each type.
Keeping changes to the minimum necessary ones, the whole code and data
structure could use a serious update using C++ features, but this would
be totally out of scope of this fix.

And replace nullptr arguments for tooltips in UI button
creation functions with std::nullopt. Though the distinction
between "no tooltip" and "empty tooltip" doesn't seem to exist,
it seems safer to keep the distinction since it existed with null before.
Currently, all save operations show the same `Saved "Filed.blend"` message.
Improve wording to tell apart different save actions such as:
* Save As

Writing a blend file to a path that references a directory wasn't
being handled correctly.
When the save "versions" was greater than zero the directory would
be renamed (adding a 1), otherwise there would be a
"Version backup failed" error.
Resolve by exiting with an error in the unlikely event the user saves
over a directory.
Part of a fix for #134101.

Move `Library.runtime` to be a pointer, move the related
`LibraryRuntime` struct to `BKE_library.hh`. Similar to e.g.
Mesh.runtime, that pointer is expected to always be valid, and is
allocated at readtime or when creating a new Library ID.
Related smaller changes:
* Write code now uses standard ID writing codepath for Library IDs too.
* Runtime pointer is reset to nullptr before writing.
* Looking up a library by its absolute path is now handled through a
dedicated utils, `search_filepath_abs`, instead of using
`BLI_findstring`.

The Status Bar often shows context menu items as the name of that menu,
which is confusing in this context. For example in Object mode it shows
"Object" as the right-click operation. In Grease Pencil it shows this
as "Draw" even though you don't draw with it. In "Sculpt" mode you see
two items as "Sculpt", one on left click and the other on right click.
This PR makes all these show as "Options" instead. This seems like a
very succinct description of what is available on right-click.

Also use Vector to store menu search items instead of a linked
list. And extend the change into the autocomplete API slightly.
The main benefit is to avoid measuring the length of strings over
and over, but the code also gets simpler.
Caused by 45f231141d.
The non-trivial nature of `RadialControl` was hidden behind
C-style allocation. Now write the default values for `RadialControl`
explicitly since it isn't allocated by calloc anymore.
The general idea is to store an array of (type, data) pointers of all
PointerRNA ancestors of the current one.
This will help solving cases in our code where the owner (or sometimes
even the owner of the owner) of a random PointerRNA needs to be
accessed. Current solution mainly relies on linear search from the owner
ID, which is sub-optimal at best, and may not even be possible in case a
same data is shared between different owners.
This lead to refactoring quite a bit of existing PointerRNA creation code.
At a high level (i.e. expected usages outside of RNA internals):
* Add `RNA_pointer_create_with_parent` and
`RNA_pointer_create_id_subdata` to create RNA pointers with
ancestors info.
* `RNA_id_pointer_create` and `RNA_main_pointer_create` remain
unchanged, as they should never have ancestors currently.
* Add `RNA_pointer_create_from_ancestor` to re-create a RNA pointer
from the nth ancestor of another PointerRNA.
* Add basic python API to access this new ancestors data.
* Update internal RNA/bpy code to handle ancestors generation in most
common generic cases.
- The most verbose change here is for collection code, as the owner of the
collection property is now passed around, to allow collection items to get
a valid ancestors chain.
Internally:
* `PointerRNA` now has an array of `AncestorPointerRNA` data to store
the ancestors.
* `PointerRNA` now has constructors that take care of setting its data for
most usual cases, including handling of the ancestor array data.
* Pointer type refining has been fully factorized into a small utils,
`rna_pointer_refine`, that is now used from all code doing that operation.
* `rna_pointer_inherit_refine` has been replaced by
`rna_pointer_create_with_ancestors` as the core function taking care of
creating pointers with valid ancestors info.
- Its usage outside of `rna_access` has been essentially reduced to custom
collection lookup callbacks.
Implements #122431.
--------------
Some notes:
* The goal of this commit is _not_ to fully cover all cases creating
PointerRNA that should also store the ancestors' chain info. It only
tackles the most generic code paths (in bpyrna and RNA itself mainly).
The remaining 'missing cases' can be tackle later, as needs be.
* Performances seem to be only marginally affected currently.
* Currently `AncestorPointerRNA` only stores PointerRNA-like data.
This will help `StructPathFunc` callbacks to more efficiently generate
an RNA paths when calling e.g. `RNA_path_from_ID_to_property`, but will
not be enough info to build these paths without these callbacks. And some
cases may still remain fuzzy. We'd have to add thinks like a `PropertyRNA`
pointer, and for RNA collection ones, an index and string identifier, to store
a complete unambiguous 'RNA path' info. This is probably not needed, nor
worth the extra processing and memory footprint, for now.

- Expand on the code-comment regarding tests & WM_capabilities_flag and
move it from the caller into the functions body since this is useful
for other callers, also mention in the doc-string.
- Use a common prefix for `WM_window_decoration_style_*` functions.
- Add a doxy-section for decoration style functions.
`WM_keymap_guess_from_context` did not handle properties space. This
simple fix made it respond the same way as if the current space is 3D
viewport, this enables brush asset sortcut assigning from tool

New shortcut assigned to operator goes inside "object mode" keymap
intead of `non-modal`. Now fixed with extra condition, since this
operator works in non-object modes. Reason it fails with "object
mode" keymap is the keymap->poll function `object_mode_poll`.

Also correct argument handling when Python arguments were passed in,
which were attempting to handle the following parameters as arguments
instead of skipping them.
Previously, the global storage of these types either used a GHash or a
blender::Map. VectorSet is preferrable to GHash because it's type safe,
clearer, and faster. It's preferrable to Map because the key doesn't
have to be duplicated and because iteration is faster.
This PR moves these registered types to VectorSet, just like the
node, node socket, and node tree types. Note that none of these types
use RAII for allocation, so freeing is still done manually.
Testing was manually interacting with each of these systems, including
with addons that register their own types.

After 0e8e219d71 / efb511a76d, memfile undo step is not used for writing
the autosave file, instead regular file saving function is used (`BLO_write_file`).
With that it is possible to compress the file when `G_FILE_COMPRESS`
flag is set.
As discussed in !132685, always compress auto-save .blend file
irrespective of `USER_FILECOMPRESS`

Instead of requiring an image buffer to draw a bigger preview image
while dragging, allow passing an icon ID and draw that as preview. This
is also how we draw previews elsewhere. Use this for attaching the asset
previews to draggable buttons.
A small user visible change is that previews from the asset browser will
always draw at the default size (multiplied by the interface scale)
while dragging. Previously it used the same size as the asset browser
preview size, which I don't think was useful really. With small sizes
the preview while dragging got unnecessarily small too, with big sizes
it got in the way.
Needed for #131871.

When right clicking on any of the image editor tool buttons,
`WM_keymap_guess_from_context` would be called but lack of `space_type`
will cause `WM_keymap_find_all` to return `nullptr`. Assigning it to
`SPACE_IMAGE` fixes the issue.
This PR adds new RNA properties that deprecate and replace any `sequence` property.
The old prooperties are still there and fully functional, but the description is changed
to indicate that these will be removed in the future and that the new properties should
be used instead.
| Deprecated property | Replacement property |
| --------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| `context.active_sequence_strip` | `context.active_strip` |
| `context.selected_editable_sequences` | `context.selected_editable_strips` |
| `context.selected_sequences` | `context.selected_strips` |
| `context.sequences` | `context.strips` |
| `SequenceEditor.sequences` | `SequenceEditor.strips` |
| `SequenceEditor.sequences_all` | `SequenceEditor.strips_all` |
| `MetaStrip.sequences` | `MetaStrip.strips` |
Previously, rna paths for animation data on strips started with `sequence_editor.sequences`.
This PRadds versioning for the rna paths to make sure to use
the new naming scheme. This does mean that in previous versions of blender,
the animations don't show but the data is not lost (even if the file is saved in the older version).
Also do some cleanup of existing python scripts inside the source to use the
new properties.
