This allows users to implement arbitrary camera models using OSL by writing
shaders that take an image position as input and compute ray origin and
direction.
The obvious applications for this are e.g. panorama modes, lens distortion
models and realistic lens simulation, but the possibilities are endless.
Currently, this is only supported on devices with OSL support, so CPU and
OptiX. However, it is independent from the shading model used, so custom
cameras can be used without getting the performance hit of OSL shading.
A few samples are provided as Text Editor templates.
One notable current limitation (in addition to the limited device support)
is that inverse mapping is not supported, so Window texture coordinates and
the Vector pass will not work with custom cameras.

- "Match Case" and "Wrap Around" were renamed but they do not need a
translation context anymore.
- Spreadsheet tooltips with unneeded translation of format
strings like `fmt::format(TIP_("{}"))`.
Replace the aligned row of three unrelated toggles with more descriptive
check-boxes in a column.
It's not like we are short of space in that sidebar either.

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.

This makes the asset shelf available as a standard, non-experimental
feature. Currently no script makes use of it, so it will still not be
available. However the pose library will be updated to use this for its
UI instead.
Initially the asset shelf was committed as experimental feature, even
though it seemed ready for non-experimental. After double checking with
some people (Dalai and Brecht) we decided to go ahead with this.
There are still some futher changes planned, see #107881.
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.
Adds a new "Ui Asset Shelf" template to the script editor, demonstrating
how scripts can register own asset shelves. The asset shelf is designed
as a new standard UI element that add-ons, application templates and the
like can use, so this is useful. It's also useful as a quick way to test
and customize the asset shelf.
The script is only available in the UI if the "Asset Shelf" experimental
feature is enabled in the Preferences.
Add a user preference to set up a custom text editor for editing text
files with the "Edit Source" action in the UI context menu.
- An operator TEXT_OT_jump_to_file_at_point has been added.
- A custom editor can be set in the user preferences.
- A preset has been included for "Visual Studio Code".
- When the editor is not set, use Blender's internal editor.
Ref !108299.
When loading an external file in the text editor, the footer text
stating "File: <file>" or "File: <file> (unsaved)" was not translated,
because the translation happened after string formatting, and the
message was thus not found in the po files.

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).
