Using `UI_but_func_tooltip_custom_set()` to create a custom tooltip
would completely disable the quicker label tooltip, even when explicitly
set using `UI_but_func_tooltip_label_set()`. Instead the quick label
should show first, and then the full tooltip once the usual tooltip
timer is reached.
We are showing full paths to the library file on some tooltips, like
for brush assets. This PR checks to see if the asset is in the
BLENDER_SYSTEM_DATAFILES/assets folder. If so it just shows it as
"Built-in Asset:" and with the last portion of the path.

The general idea is to keep the 'old', C-style MEM_callocN signature, and slowly
replace most of its usages with the new, C++-style type-safer template version.
* `MEM_cnew<T>` allocation version is renamed to `MEM_callocN<T>`.
* `MEM_cnew_array<T>` allocation version is renamed to `MEM_calloc_arrayN<T>`.
* `MEM_cnew<T>` duplicate version is renamed to `MEM_dupallocN<T>`.
Similar templates type-safe version of `MEM_mallocN` will be added soon
as well.
Following discussions in !134452.
NOTE: For now static type checking in `MEM_callocN` and related are slightly
different for Windows MSVC. This compiler seems to consider structs using the
`DNA_DEFINE_CXX_METHODS` macro as non-trivial (likely because their default
copy constructors are deleted). So using checks on trivially
constructible/destructible instead on this compiler/system.

And replace nullptr arguments for tooltips in UI button
creation functions with std::nullopt. Though the distinction
between "no tooltip" and "empty tooltip" doesn't seem to exist,
it seems safer to keep the distinction since it existed with null before.
This changes the ui-blocks buttons storage from Listbase to Vector.
Major changes that might cause a performance considerations are
in `ui_but_update_from_old_block` that requires to track buttons when restoring
button state between block redraws or in `uiItemFullR` that may needs to insert
uiButs in the middle of the vector to add decorators. This might not be as fast as
removing or inserting elements in the middle of a listbase container. Also buttons currently
don't know its position in the container, so to get the previous and next
button its required to make a lookup of the button in the container.
`UI_block_update_from_old> ui_but_update_from_old_block` restores the state
of buttons between frames, this is done by sequentially testing if a button is the
same as an old button, however since UI can be created procedurally some old buttons
may not be drawn while editing other button data, this requires an extra track of what
buttons may not match to a new button while comparing for restoring state, but still
this buttons may be candidates to match to an new button.
Not functional changes expected.

The UI code assumed buttons had no more than 4 elements
however Python scripts may define larger array sizes.
Resolve the bug by adding functions for array access that take an
array size limit to prevent buffer overflows (read & write).
Note that this only adds the "float" versions of these functions,
for completeness int & boolean can be supported as a separate commit.
The "Red Alert" color is currently hard-coded, which causes problems in
themes. It also has an Enum value of 0, which precludes using this
value as "unset". We also use Error, Warning, and Info colors that are
part of the Info Editor. This PR moves these out of the Info Editor
and into the "State" part of the theme. And then makes TH_REDALERT use
the TH_ERROR color.

Refactor how tooltips are sized, items placed, margins calculated, etc.
Current code has some mistakes that we use kludges to compensate for,
and it doesn't properly consider the font size in calculating margins.
The result shown to users in normal circumstances (changing resolution
scale only) with this PR applied should look identical to current.
Small changes when the text style size is changed. However, this is
mostly to allow later adjustments to padding, which currently _breaks_
when changed.

Another case of C-style allocation of non-trivial objects hidden
with casting. To fix, give explicit member defaults to a few of
the UI interaction structs.
Move `Library.runtime` to be a pointer, move the related
`LibraryRuntime` struct to `BKE_library.hh`. Similar to e.g.
Mesh.runtime, that pointer is expected to always be valid, and is
allocated at readtime or when creating a new Library ID.
Related smaller changes:
* Write code now uses standard ID writing codepath for Library IDs too.
* Runtime pointer is reset to nullptr before writing.
* Looking up a library by its absolute path is now handled through a
dedicated utils, `search_filepath_abs`, instead of using
`BLI_findstring`.

Currently UI code always has to use char pointers when interacting with
the translation system. This makes benefiting from the use C++ strings
and StringRef more difficult. That means we're leaving some type safety
and performance on the table. This PR adds StringRef overloads to the
translation API functions and removes the few calls to `.c_str()` that
are now unnecessary.

Also use Vector to store menu search items instead of a linked
list. And extend the change into the autocomplete API slightly.
The main benefit is to avoid measuring the length of strings over
and over, but the code also gets simpler.
Store the the HUD now stores the index of the region type so when there
are multiple views of the same type (typically quad view), the correct
region is used.

Addresses #78171, #61828, #62473 and many closed reports about this.
Until now, the "Adjust Last Operation" would keep being available after
changing various properties in the UI. Actually using it to adjust the
last operation parameters would undo the other changes done through the
UI, which is unexpected and easy to miss. Users would keep running into
this, thinking it was a bug, as the many reports merged into #78171
indicate.
As agreed on in the report, adjusting the last operation shouldn't be
possible after changing properties in the UI that send an undo push.
That's what this PR implements, together with removing the "Adjust Last
Operation" region at that point.

Currently the popup tooltips for colors shows the same display whether
the color supports alpha or not. This can be confusing when what is
shown could imply that alpha is changeable when it is not. This PR
makes it clear by not showing alpha values for RBA colors.

When using clangd or running clang-tidy on headers there are
currently many errors. These are noisy in IDEs, make auto fixes
impossible, and break features like code completion, refactoring
and navigation.
This makes source/blender headers work by themselves, which is
generally the goal anyway. But #includes and forward declarations
were often incomplete.
* Add #includes and forward declarations
* Add IWYU pragma: export in a few places
* Remove some unused #includes (but there are many more)
* Tweak ShaderCreateInfo macros to work better with clangd
Some types of headers still have errors, these could be fixed or
worked around with more investigation. Mostly preprocessor
template headers like NOD_static_types.h.
Note that that disabling WITH_UNITY_BUILD is required for clangd to
work properly, otherwise compile_commands.json does not contain
the information for the relevant source files.

- All movie related public headers now have MOV_ prefix instead of
IMB_movie_.
- All movie related public functions now have MOV_ prefix as well,
instead of IMB_movie_ or IMB_anim_.
- IMB_anim.hh -> MOV_read.hh (also ImBufAnim -> MovieReader), and
various utility functions not related to playback were split off
into MOV_util.hh.
- Other function name tweaks for clarity, e.g. IMB_suffix_anim
-> MOV_set_multiview_suffix and so on.
- All except one usages of MOV_get_fps (nee IMB_anim_get_fps) were
ultimately just converting returned value into a float. So make
MOV_get_fps just return that directly. For the (exactly just one)
place that needs numerator and denominator, have
MOV_get_fps_num_denom.
- Code comments on the public header functions.
- Removed never-used code paths inside movie timecode proxy building
file.
It might be easier to review each commit separately.

Previously, code related to reading/writing movie files via ffmpeg was
scattered around: some under blenkernel, some directly in generic
imbuf headers, some under intern/ffmpeg. Some of the files were named
with not exactly clear names. Some parts not directly related to movies
were including ffmpeg headers directly (rna_scene.cc).
What is in this PR:
Movie and ffmpeg related code is now under imbuf/movie:
- IMB_anim.hh: movie reading, proxy querying, various utility functions.
- IMB_movie_enums.hh: simple enum definitions,
- IMB_movie_write.hh: movie writing functions.
- intern: actual implementation and private headers.
- ffmpeg_compat.h: various ffmpeg version difference handling
utilities,
- ffmpeg_swscale.hh/cc: scaling and format conversion utilities
for ffmpeg libswscale,
- ffmpeg_util.hh/cc: misc utilities related to ffmpeg,
- movie_proxy_indexer.hh/cc: proxies and timecode indexing for movies,
- movie_read.hh/cc: decoding of movies into images,
- movie_write.cc: encoding of images into movies.
- tests: basic ffmpeg library unit tests that previously
lived under intern/ffmpeg.
Interface changes (at C++ level, no Python API changes):
- Mostly just movie related functions that were BKE_ previously, are now IMB_.
- I did one large-ish change though, and that is to remove bMovieHandle
struct that had pointers to several functions. Now that is
IMB_movie_write_begin, IMB_movie_write_append, IMB_movie_write_end
functions using a single opaque struct handle. As a result, usages
of that in pipeline.cc and render_opengl.cc have changed.

The text colors used on the tooltips are hard-coded and calculated
based on that widget's text color. But this is done in such a way that
the colors lose their saturation when used on light themes. This PR
calculates them in a way that allows the active color (light blue) and
the alert color (red) to work with light theme colors.

PR #129125 allowed the movement of centered dialogs, like About and
Splash, without them snapping back to their original positions. But
that change was more complex than necessary. This returns
interface_region_popup.cc to exactly as it was before any of this, and
interface.cc gets simpler too. In a nutshell recentering these dialogs
is a lot easier that seemed at first.

Some popups are positioned centered in the window, like "Splash",
"About", and the large confirmations. But when you drag these to
a different location they will snap back when there is any window
interaction. This PR allows you to move these popups and they will
stay in the new location.

The `fmt::format` can process the format string at compile time. Currently, we
don't seem to be using that as we don't use `FMT_STRING`. Starting with C++20,
that will be the default though, and one has to explicitly opt out in places
where the string is not known at compile time using `fmt::runtime(...)`.
Currently, our code does not compile as C++20 because of that. Unfortunately, we
have many places with runtime format strings, because of i18n.
