Enable visual keying of bones that are influenced by an IK constraint.
This wasn't possible before, as the visual keying system only checked
constraints on the bone itself, and not whether the bone was part of an
IK chain.
This commit introduces a new `bPoseChannel::constflag` value
`PCHAN_INFLUENCED_BY_IK` that is set whenever the pose bone is part of
an IK chain.
The `pchan->constflag` field is computed during depsgraph evaluation. If
the depsgraph is active, it is now also written back to the original
pchan, so that it can be used in the "should visual keying be used"
function.
Fixes: #76791 "Different results when keyframing visual transforms and
applying transforms manually on IK constraint". Note that visually
keying does *not* copy the visual pose to the current pose. Furthermore,
when visually keying only part of the IK chain, the result of
re-evaluating the IK constraint (for example by moving the scene forward
and then backward by one frame) may still produce a different result, as
the IK chain now has a different start orientation.
Note that commit explicitly does not cover Spline IK constraints. They
can introduce heavy shear, especially with the default settings, which
cannot be represented by keys on loc/rot/scale.

introduces the 'use visual keying' preference option, where Blender
automatically chooses whether or not to use visual keying. This is why
there is a function at all that determines whether to use visual keying
or not.
