This implements the ability to have file exporters added and configured on Collections.
Exporting is reachable from several locations:
- Individually on each exporter configuration: The `Export` button in each panel header
- For all exporters on the collection: The `Export All` button in the main panel interface
- For all exporters on all collections in the scene: The `File`->`Export All Collections` button
Visibility of which collections currently have exporters configured is done by ways of an icon added to the Collection row in the Outliner.
Adding multiple exporters for the same file type is permitted. The user is free to setup several exports of the same format but with different file locations or settings etc.
Notes:
Only USD and Wavefront OBJ are enabled for the initial commit. Additional formats, including those implemented in Python will be added as separate commits after this.

Move the public functions from the editors/object (`ED_object.hh`)
header to the `blender::ed::object` namespace, and move all of the
implementation files to the namespace too. This provides better code
completion, makes it easier to use other C++ code, removes unnecessary
redundancy and verbosity from local uses of public functions, and more
cleanly separates different modules.
See the diff in `ED_object.hh` for the main renaming changes.

The depsgraph CoW mechanism is a bit of a misnomer. It creates an
evaluated copy for data-blocks regardless of whether the copy will
actually be written to. The point is to have physical separation between
original and evaluated data. This is in contrast to the commonly used
performance improvement of keeping a user count and copying data
implicitly when it needs to be changed. In Blender code we call this
"implicit sharing" instead. Importantly, the dependency graph has no
idea about the _actual_ CoW behavior in Blender.
Renaming this functionality in the despgraph removes some of the
confusion that comes up when talking about this, and will hopefully
make the depsgraph less confusing to understand initially too. Wording
like "the evaluated copy" (as opposed to the original data-block) has
also become common anyway.

This was noted in code comments and checked in Python documentation
generation but not at build time.
Since these enums are identifiers that end up included in various places
enforce the `rna_enum_*_items` convention which was noted as
the convention but not followed strictly.
Partially reverts [0], avoids having to deal with multiple prefix types.

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.
This moves the following `editors/*` directories to C++:
- animation, armature, lattice, mesh, metaball, object, scene.
Much of the changes in this commit (inserting casts in particular)
was automated. Further changes like switching to functional style
casts can be done separately by existing automated scripts.
