This makes the read and write API functions match more closely, and adds
asserts to check that the data size is as expected.
There are still a few places remaining that use BLO_read_data_address
and similar generic functions, these should eventually be replaced as well.

Include Animation data-block handling in Blender's animation evaluation
stack. If an `Animation` is assigned to an `ID`, it will take precedence
over the NLA and/or any `Action` that might be assigned as well.
For more info, see #113594.

The issue was that the `PointerRNA` passed to `BKE_animsys_get_nla_keyframing_context`
needs to point to an `ID` which wasn't the case when keying bones.
That is because internally the `FCurve` path is used to resolve the property.
This can only work from the `ID` because the `FCurve` path is always stored relative to that.
While the function doesn't fail when the property can't resolve the path, it won't actually do
the remapping when passing it to `BKE_animsys_nla_remap_keyframe_values` later.

No functional changes.
This PR replaces the uses of the C-style `BLI_BITMAP`
with `blender::BitVector` in `keyframing.cc`.
Note that in `BKE_animsys_nla_remap_keyframe_values` I had to
add code that maps from one to the other because I don't feel
comfortable ripping out the `BLI_BITMAP` from
`NlaEvalChannelSnapshot->remap_domain`

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.

Along with the 4.1 libraries upgrade, we are bumping the clang-format
version from 8-12 to 17. This affects quite a few files.
If not already the case, you may consider pointing your IDE to the
clang-format binary bundled with the Blender precompiled libraries.

Changing old C code to C++ by returning a `Vector` from `ANIM_setting_get_rna_values`.
This reduces the argument count for that function and simplifies the code.

Make the code more readable by doing the following
* rename `BKE_keyingset_free` to `BKE_keyingset_free_paths` since that is what it does
* invert `if` and return early to reduce indentation
* add enum value `MODIFYKEY_SUCCESS` to explicitly state the return value, instead of eModifyKey_Returns(0)
* return `INSERTKEY_NOFLAGS` instead of eInsertKeyFlags(0)
* move variables closer to their usage

This changes the `action.frame_range` Python API to return an accurate
frame range for actions. Specifically, it was previously special-cased
to return a range with length 1 whenever the length was actually 0. This
led to a bizarre situation where a real frame range of `[0.0, 0.2]` would
return that range as-is, but a real frame range of `[0.0, 0.0]` would
instead return a range of `[0.0, 1.0]`.
The new behavior simply always returns the real frame range.
The reason for the previous behavior was obscure: the relevant code was
also used internally in Blender's NLA system, and returning a zero-length
range could result in NLA strips getting infinite scale. The code is now
separated out appropriately so that the NLA system still gets the
non-zero-length range, while the Python API for actions returns the real
range.

Fix#100718: NLA Hold Forward Inconsistency
Action Track with 'extrapolation=Hold Forward' behaves the same as 'Hold'.
For the Action Track, we now properly treat extrapolation Hold_Forward just like the rest of the NLA system.

There are a couple of functions that create rna pointers. For example
`RNA_main_pointer_create` and `RNA_pointer_create`. Currently, those
take an output parameter `r_ptr` as last argument. This patch changes
it so that the functions actually return a` PointerRNA` instead of using
the output parameters.
This has a few benefits:
* Output parameters should only be used when there is an actual benefit.
Otherwise, one should default to returning the value.
* It's simpler to use the API in the large majority of cases (note that this
patch reduces the number of lines of code).
* It allows the `PointerRNA` to be const on the call-site, if that is desired.
No performance regression has been measured in production files.
If one of these functions happened to be called in a hot loop where
there is a regression, the solution should be to use an inline function
there which allows the compiler to optimize it even better.

The `lib_link` callback cannot always be fully replaced/removed, as in
some case it is also doing some validation checks, or data editing based
on the result of lib_linking internal ID pointers.
The callback has been renamed for that purpose, from `read_lib` to
`read_after_liblink`. It is now called after all ID pointers have been
fully lib-linked for the current ID, but still before the call to
`do_versions_after_linking`.
This change should not have any behavioral effect. Although in theory
the side-effect of this commit (to split lib linking itself, and the
validation/further processing code) into two completely separated steps
could have some effects, in practice none are expected, and tests did
not show any changes in behavior either..
Part of implementing #105134: Removal of readfile's lib_link & expand code.
The `expand` callback is 'trivial' to replace, since it is only iterating
over ID pointers and calling a callback.
The only change in behavior here is that some pointers that were not
processed previously will now be.
In practice this is not expected to have any real effect (usually
the IDs used by these pointers would have been expanded through other
usages anyway). But it may solve a few corner cases, undocumented issues
though.

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.
Also see #103343.
Couldn't move two files yet:
* `softbody.c`: The corresponding regression test fails. It seems like the
conversion to C++ changes floating point accuracy, but it's not clear where that happens exactly.
* `writeffmpeg.c`: Is a bit more complex to convert because of the static array in `av_err2str`.
