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.

- Wrap the closing parenthesis onto it's own line
which makes assignments to the return value
read better.
- Reduce right-shift with multi-line function calls.
Removes many of the operators, panels, and menus used exclusively by Grease Pencil v2 that are no longer needed in v3.
No functional changes are expected.
Some operators are still used by the annotations system and have to be kept around. These may be renamed in future.

As per the human interface guidelines, do not use the same icon in
consecutive items within a group in a menu.
* Operator Search in Top Bar's Edit menu
* Viewport Render Keyframes in Viewport's View menu
When passing strings to str.format(..) use `{:s}` format specifier
which only takes strings and wont run `.__str__()` on non-strings.
While `{!s}` is an equivalent to `%s`, for the most part `%s` was
used for strings, so using `{:s}` is clearer and more specific.
Part of modernizing scripts in Blender, where the previous convention
was to use percentage formatting which has become the "old" way to
format strings in Python.
See proposal for details #120453.
Ref !120552
This implements the ability to have file exporters added and configured on Collections.
Exporting is reachable from several locations:
- Individually on each exporter configuration: The `Export` button in each panel header
- For all exporters on the collection: The `Export All` button in the main panel interface
- For all exporters on all collections in the scene: The `File`->`Export All Collections` button
Visibility of which collections currently have exporters configured is done by ways of an icon added to the Collection row in the Outliner.
Adding multiple exporters for the same file type is permitted. The user is free to setup several exports of the same format but with different file locations or settings etc.
Notes:
Only USD and Wavefront OBJ are enabled for the initial commit. Additional formats, including those implemented in Python will be added as separate commits after this.

Make the 'purge' operation show an interactive popup by default, with
a preview of the type and amount of data-blocks to be deleted.
Idea and initial UI/UX design are from @Harley (see PR !117242).
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/117304
Currently, internal I/O operators can be invoked with drag-n-drop path
data, and when this happens a quick popup menu is shown to customize
import settings.
If these operators support operator presets, using a preset can
override path data given by drag-n-drop, and that can be unwanted
behavior.
While this can be fixed by setting path properties to SKIP_SAVE, doing
this would make these properties also to stop using ghost values. These
ghost values are used by the file select window to open operator last
import directory, and using this flag makes the file select windows
always open the home directory.
To fix that, add an explicit flag PROP_SKIP_PRESET that skips properties
writing to presets. Also clarify that PROP_HIDDEN and PROP_SKIP_SAVE
also avoid writing to presets.
Added a operator that can clean operator's specific property presets.
Importing presets from previous versions runs an automatic cleanup.

Based on the design of #102585, This PR replaces the MOD_MASK icon with
the CLIP_UVDEHLT icon to better communicate the intent of masking across
many areas of Blender. It also changes the Grease Pencil `invert` icons
to avoid conflicts with the CLIPUV_DEHLT & CLIPUV_HLT.

There was a C++ STL importer since Blender 3.3, but no corresponding C++ STL exporter. This PR is adding said exporter: taking https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/105598 and finishing it (agreed with original author).
Exporting Suzanne with 6 level subdivision (4 million triangles), on Apple M1 Max:
- Binary: python exporter 7.8 sec -> C++ exporter 0.9 sec.
- Ascii: python exporter 13.1 sec -> C++ exporter 4.5 sec.

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.
Use names:
- `tool_settings` instead of `ts`.
- `props` instead of `op` / `prop` / `op_props`
As Python may reference operators, don't confuse the operator
properties with an instance of the operator.
In both cases these names were already used for most scripts.
Introduce a context manager that temporarily overrides a UILayout's
operator context.
Instead of writing this:
```py
default_op_context = layout.context
layout.context = 'OTHER_VALUE'
layout.do_stuff()
layout.context = default_op_context
```
you can now write this:
```py
from bl_ui_utils.layout import operator_context
with operator_context(layout, 'OTHER_VALUE'):
layout.do_stuff()
```
This is also exception-safe; it will always ensure the layout's operator
context is restored when the `with` body is exited, regardless of
whether that's done with an exception or regularly.
Idea in-the-hallway approved by @Sergey.
Address some issues discussed in PR #104404:
- Vertex color options changed to None/sRGB/Linear, default is sRGB
to match the existing Python addon.
- Change name to "Stanford PLY" from "PLY" in the menu item.
- Default "Export UVs" to on.
- After importing vertex colors, they are set as enabled for render.
New (experimental) Stanford PLY importer and exporter written in C++.
Handles: vertices, faces, edges, vertex colors, normals, UVs. Both
binary and ASCII formats are supported.
Usually 10-20x faster than the existing Python based PLY
importer/exporter.
Additional notes compared to the previous Python addon:
- Importing point clouds with vertex colors now works
- Importing PLY files with non standard line endings
- Exporting multiple objects (previous exporter didn't take the vertex
indices into account)
- The importer has the option to merge vertices
- The exporter supports exporting loose edges and vertices along with
UV map data

This commit adds the default .usdz export capability.
The importer already supports usdz so no change is required other than updating the text in menu to match the updated exporter text.
On export, a .usd/a/c file has to be created first, and then converted to .usdz. A weird change of directory is required because of a quirk with the USD conversion to usdz. If an absolute filepath is passed into the `UsdUtilsCreateNewUsdzPackage` function, the usd files inside the usdz archive will have the same directory structure, i.e. if one tries to create a file at `C:\code\BlenderProjects\file.usdz`, when the usdz file is created, inside it will have the structure `\code\BlenderProjects\file.usdc`.
This is counteracted by setting the current working directory to the temporary session directory where both the usdc and usdz files are created, and just passing the file name to `UsdUtilsCreateNewUsdzPackage` without any filepath. Once the usdz file is created it is moved to the intended directory.
There is a separate `UsdUtilsCreateNewARKitUsdzPackage` capability for exporting usdz for iOS devices that will be implemented in a follow up patch as it will require some more small UI changes.

Pull Request #105185, based on #104556.
This commit implements described in the #104573.
The goal is to fix the confusion of the submodule hashes change, which are not
ideal for any of the supported git-module configuration (they are either always
visible causing confusion, or silently staged and committed, also causing
confusion).
This commit replaces submodules with a checkout of addons and addons_contrib,
covered by the .gitignore, and locale and developer tools are moved to the
main repository.
This also changes the paths:
- /release/scripts are moved to the /scripts
- /source/tools are moved to the /tools
- /release/datafiles/locale is moved to /locale
This is done to avoid conflicts when using bisect, and also allow buildbot to
automatically "recover" wgen building older or newer branches/patches.
Running `make update` will initialize the local checkout to the changed
repository configuration.
Another aspect of the change is that the make update will support Github style
of remote organization (origin remote pointing to thy fork, upstream remote
pointing to the upstream blender/blender.git).
