Multisample buffers were used for smooth line drawing. As we now have
an algorithm that doesn't need the multisample buffers we can remove
them.
The user preference for viewport multi_sampling is replaced by single
toggle overlay `use_overlay_smooth_wire`. By default this setting is
enabled as the new drawing is really quick (<1ms) and uses zero hacks.

This adds the ID-Filters visible on append/link to the settings the file
browser remembers, potentially storing them in the Preferences.
Artists in the studio here requested this. They typically have to set up
the same or similar settings every time, so this saves them from that.
The default was changed with an initial implementation of the feature.
With the feedback from animators, having a behavior which affects curves
outside of a changing range is not convenient for professional animators
working on high quality character animation. On the other hand, automatic
smoothing is better for casual animation of object motion.
This change adds an ability to change the default via User Preferences.

This makes it so that some display related properties of the file
browser state are remembered in the Preferences. Otherwise, users often
end up doing the same set up work over and over again, so this is a
nice way to save users some work.
It's typical for other file browsers to remember their state too, so
another benefit is having a more conventional behavior, meeting user
expectations better.
Some points:
* We currently store: Window size, display type, thumbnail size,
enabled details-columns, sort options, "Show Hidden" option. More can
be added easily.
* No changes are stored to the Preferences if "Auto-save Preferences"
is disabled. This is how Quick Favorites behave too and it's a
reasonable way to make this behavior optional.
* The Preferences are only saved to permanent memory upon closing
Blender, following existing convention of Preferences and Quick
Favorites.
* If settings weren't actually changed, Preference saving is skipped.
* Only temporary file browsers save their state (invoked through
actions like open or save), not regular file browser editors. These
are usually used for different purposes and workflows.
* Removes "Show Thumbnails" Preferences option. It would need some
special handling, possibly introducing bugs. For users, this
simplifies behavior and should make things more predictable.
Left in DNA data in case we decide to bring it back.

Otherwise --factory-startup would e.g render as `Keep User Interface`
(which is supposed to be `New Window` by default)

Added because the current default is too fast
for painting with tablets, see D5385.
Turntable and trackball have different settings because
turn-table uses an angle-per-pixel, where as trackball
values are relative to the view-port size so a scale is used.
The sensitivity is scaled by the pixel size so hi-dpi views don't rotate faster.
Simplify preferences by removing the ability to load them from
either the startup.blend or userpref.blend.
Also simplifies updating default preferences by moving
them to a struct definition.
