Properly track Action and Slot assignment when entering/exiting NLA
tweak mode.
This doesn't properly sync the length of the NLA strip when exiting
tweak mode. This and more NLA work is tracked at #127489.

Before efb511a76d this was not necessary, because the G_FILE_COMPRESS option
was not disabled when writing memfile undo steps. However, compression is
generally disabled when writing quit.blend or autosave files.
As of 2a56403cb0, bevel weight data is stored as a generic
attribute. The bevel modifier is currently hard-coded to use the
`bevel_weight_edge` attribute as the data source for the weights.
This commit adds a string textbox where the user can specify alternate
attributes for the bevel's edge weights.
The string name field is added as a search button which provides a list
of all attributes in the original mesh. This is meant to work similarly
to geometry nodes, so mismatched attribute data types and domains are
automatically converted/interpolated as necessary. Attributes created
by previous modifiers can also be used, but they won't appear in the
search menu.

The term "tool" is historic from before the actual tool system got
introduced. Since then the term was already a bit confusing, because it
wasn't directly related to the tool system, but there was still some
relationship between the two. Now brushes and their types are decoupled
much more from the tool system, with a single "Brush" tool supporting
all kinds of brushes (draw, grab, cloth, smooth, ...).
For a more clear terminology, use "brush type" instead of "tool".
For #126032 we need to write the brush type to the asset metadata (done
in !124618), so we can filter brushes based on the type (so the grease
pencil eraser tool only shows eraser brushes, for example). I'd like to
use future proof names for that to avoid versioning of asset metadata in
future, so I'd rather do the full naming change now.
RNA properties (thus BPY names) are not changed for compatibility
reasons. Can be done in 5.0, see blender/blender#124201.

True for both `Graph` and `Dopesheet` views in the MCE.
For all other time-based editors, the main region (`RGN_TYPE_WINDOW`) is
of interest to be tagged for syncing `V2D_VIEWSYNC_SCREEN_TIME`. In the
case of the Movie Clip Editor however, the `Graph` and `Dopesheet`
regions in question are of type `RGN_TYPE_PREVIEW`.
So to resolve, we have to take this into account in view2d_sync RNA code
NOTE: this PR does not add versioning code, so any "falsely" tagged
`Graph` and `Dopesheet` view will "loose" the setting (will have to be
enabled again on the "right" region), this could be added though -- it
would be impossible to tell **which** view exactly, so on each
`RGN_TYPE_WINDOW` encountered, we'd have to then tag **both** `Graph`
and `Dopesheet` afaict

Current default tool is "sample" which is a bit odd, and coupled with
the fact that the toolbar is hidden by default, this can be confusing
to new users, leading them to believe tweak/select tools are not
supported for the VSE preview.
This change:
- Sets "box select" as the default tool for the Preview
- Makes both Preview and Timeline toolbars shown by default
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/126336
Adds the ability to connect and disconnect strips in the VSE.
- Connected strips have an icon indicating their status, and attempting
to select one connected strip selects all other connected strips in
that chain.
- If the user attempts to connect a strip that is already connected to
other strips, that strip will disconnect itself from others before
connecting to new strips.
- Preview selection also works in bulk if multiple video strips are
connected together in the timeline.
- When adding new strips from the Add menu or the File Browser, strips
from the same file are connected by default. There's an option to
turn this off in Editing > Video Sequencer user preferences.
- It is possible to individually tweak strips/handles and ignore
connections with Alt+Click.
- This shortcut overrides the old keymap item for "Linked Handle"
selection. The property still exists if people want to use that
shortcut for its old purpose.
- To make sure that connections remain valid even after duplication,
I've added a condition to `seq_new_fix_links_recursive` that also
updates connections using the `seq->tmp` var. (A note -- I've updated
the comment for this field in `DNA_sequence_types.h` because the var
is only used for duplication now. It was once present in
`select_more_less_seq__internal` to be used for linked selection but
is gone now).
- There are also functions to cut one-way links and make sure that
all strips are bidirectionally connected after duplicating.

Code executed in `BLO_read_do_version_after_setup` would not update in
any ways the info in link/append context data.
NOTE: this could potentially be extended to other code in this 'complex
do version' area. However, other versionning did not cause issues
apparently so far, so would rather until such changes are proven needed.

This adds the ability to customize the default width of a group node that's
created for a node group. This feature works towards the goal of unifying the
features available to built-in nodes and node groups. We often customize the
width of built-in nodes from them to looks slightly better (e.g. to avoid
cut-off labels).

Previously, values for `ID.flag` and `ID.tag` used the prefixes `LIB_` and
`LIB_TAG` respectively. This was somewhat confusing because it's not really
related to libraries in general. This patch changes the prefix to `ID_FLAG_` and
`ID_TAG_`. This makes it more obvious what they correspond to, simplifying code.

Add a toggle for Fast GI Approximation in the header of the panel,
following Cycles layout.
Move the `Max Roughness` setting inside the panel, and rename to
Threshold.
Since Fast GI Approximation only has any effect when Threshold/
Max Roughness is below the max (1.0), gray out the rest of the
panel when at that value.

The File Output node doesn't provide an option to save byte formats like
PNG in a space that is not sRGB. This is problematic for data images
like normal maps, which need to be saved as non-color.
This patch adds a Color Space option to the File Output node to allows
users to override the assumed color space. This also adds a new global
Save As Render option that is used if Use Node Format is enabled.

Somewhat mirrors similar API in the write code, allows to do properly
typed-read calls on some 'generic' types like constraints, customdata,
etc., which have a 'TypeInfo' system storing their DNA struct names.
Previous namings in makesdna code was very confusing and inconsistent.
This commit unifies names accross the codebase as such:
- `struct` for the structs definitions data.
- `type` for the types definitions data.
- `member` for the struct members definitions data.
Structs and types definitions are not in synced for two reasons:
- types contains also definitions for basic types (int, float, etc.).
- types can be discovered before their struct definition (as members of
other structs).
This commit also groups all members of `SDNA` struct more logically (all
'structs' ones together, then all 'types' ones, then all 'struct
members' ones).
This commit should have no behavioral change at all.

This type of projection is often used e.g. in exhibitions that leverage big
curved screens.
Effectively, the frame is mapped onto a cylinder, with the x axis becoming the
longitude and y axis becoming the height.
Users can configure the min/max longitude, the min/max height and the radius of
the cylinder.

Use the new 'Dynamic Alloc String Storage API' for the allocation
strings of the `read-struct` function in the readfile code.
Compared to the previous code, this change:
- Fixes ASAN aborting before readfile-related memleaks prints.
- In addition to the 'main owner' data type, adds the actual read struct
type (and array size if relevant) to the alloc name.
--------------------
Note that this keeps all combinations of owner/types/array_num generated
strings for the whole duration of the program. However, this only
impacts Debug (and Release `WITH_ASSERT_ABORT`) builds.
The 'real' release builds also use a mapping now, but very small (one
entry per ID type), and with a basic `int` key. Further more, it is
optimized to only do one lookup for a whole ID and all of its 'owned'
structs, so there is no measurable impact on performances in blendfile
reading for release builds.

If a data-block referenced the same shared data more than once, it used to be
written multiple times. This worked out so far, because the written data is
always the same. So when reading the file, it doesn't matter which written
buffer Blender decides to read on. However, this makes the .blend file look
corrupt and leads to memory leaks on load (#125001).

Blendfile uses the 'old (memory) address' of its data as 'uid' in the
blendfile. There should only be one block written for a given address
and a same ID (each ID define its own 'virtual address space').
This commit checks that this condition is met at wrtite time (except for
undo steps, for performances reasons).
Tooling part of the investigations on #125001.
This gives users the ability to control the size of tooltip text
separately from other text styles. This is an accessibility issue
in that users with low vision can choose to make these larger than
the working text.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/125147
Blendfile format expects all `BLO_CODE_DATA` bheads belonging to a same
ID 'space' to have unique identifiers (their old addresses).
When this is not the case, the blendfile is considered as corrupted.
Consequences can vary, from mere memory leaks, to catastrophic
unrecoverable crashes.
NOTE: This is what happens in file from #125001.
