Face maps were added as a prototype of a new rigging solution during
2.8 development. Their storage is redundant with the newer generic
attribute system (specifically with integer face attributes), and
they were never used much. This commit removes the face map list
and converts the storage to an attribute with the name `face_maps`.
There is nowhere to store the face map names anymore, so those
are not kept.
It probably still makes sense to have a feature like mesh face gizmo
selection for rigging. But the design and implementation woulds likely
have to change significantly, including possibly changing the storage
type, and making use of the generic attribute system instead of a
special type.
See #105317 for more discussion.
The filter is used to reduce noise while preserving edges. It can be used to create a cartoon effect from photorealistic images.
It offers two variations:
1) Classic aka isotropic kuwahara filter: simple and faster computation. Algorithm splits an area around a single pixel in four parts and computes the mean of the region with the lowest standard deviation.
2) Anisotropic Kuwahara filter: improves the classical approach by considering the direction of structures of regions
This patch implements both approaches above as multi-threaded operations for the full-frame and tiled compositor.

This implements the `VIEW3D_OT_select_box` for the new grease pencil data-block.
Note that this also adds a `get_evaluated_grease_pencil_drawing_deformation` function, but there are TODOs left.
This will have to be updated once the modifier logic is in place.

* Enable "Experimental Compositors" in preferences, then choose
Realtime GPU execution mode in node editor sidebar.
* Only supports combined pass input and Render Result combined output.
* No viewer nodes, no file output nodes, and no node previews yet.

Now the operator is used for both the internal & external editor,
so there is no need for the caller to call this operator only when
the preferences are set.
Add a user preference to set up a custom text editor for editing text
files with the "Edit Source" action in the UI context menu.
- An operator TEXT_OT_jump_to_file_at_point has been added.
- A custom editor can be set in the user preferences.
- A preset has been included for "Visual Studio Code".
- When the editor is not set, use Blender's internal editor.
Ref !108299.
The snap mode called "Face Nearest" (and the "Increment" but that's for
another time) doesn't behave like the other snap modes.
Unlike the other snap modes, "Face Nearest" does not act on a Snap
Base (or Snap Source).
It always acts on the origin of individually transformed elements, (such
as each vertex individually).
It works just like the "Project Individual Elements" option.
So this commit makes the following changes:
- `Snap With` was moved to the beginning of the popover
- `Align Rotation to Target` and `Backface Culling` have been moved closer to the snap targets
- `Snap With`, `Target Selection` and `Align Rotation to Target` are no longer hidden by varying the mode and options
- `Project Individual Elements` has been replaced with the `Face Project` option
- `Face Nearest` has been moved to stick together with the `Face Project` option

Since ccc9eef1b9, the asset-library-reference isn't required anymore to
get the full path of an asset. So don't check for this in the `poll()`
method of the operator.
This commit simplifies the "Extrude" menu layout code.
This should make future modifications and maintenance easier.

This limitation was added to avoid conflicts with tools.
But since we now have the "allow_navigation" option on transform
operators, there is no real benefit to having this limitation.
- "Invalid" in transformation messages.
- For three messages, translation occured after a string
- concatenation, so the full message was not found.
Instead, translate a format pattern and format it afterwards.
- Alembic errors when there is an import type mismatch.

"Remove addon" button was in the row labeled "Internet", which is
misleading when no documentation buttons appears in the same row.
Now a separate row is created instead.
Ref !108429.
This adds the operator `OBJECT_OT_grease_pencil_add` to create a new grease pencil object.
Currently it supports the `EMPTY` and `STROKE` type.
This also replaces the add menu for the legacy grease pencil type in the Shift+A menu when the experimental option is enabled.

Adds the "Corners of Edge" topology node to geometry nodes.
Combining this node with the "Face of Corner" node allows getting
informations about the faces connected to an edge. The behavior is
slightly non-obvious-- the node only gives the corner neighbors
that come *before* the current edge in directly neighboring faces.
This allows the operation to be easily reversed and reduces
redundancy between nodes.

For emitter particle systems, these were never rendered anyways, Path is
kept for hair systems of course.
As a consequence, the new default for particle systems is:
- render as None (users have to explicitly set this to object/
collection)
- display as point
When changing to Hair type, this automatically gets set back to
- render as Path
- display as Render
Changing back to emitter, will use points as display again (and render
as None -- same here, users have to explicitly set this to object/
collection)
Not sure if this is still for 3.6, patch is for 4.0 for now.
"Fixes" #80197
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108231
Adds the initial stage for the grease pencil 3.0 project.
This patch includes:
* New ID and new object type.
* New DNA structures.
* New drawing engine for grease pencil (gpencil-next).
* Tests for the new grease pencil data-type.
* A few operators for conversion, switching modes and (simple) drawing.
Exposed to the user:
* An experimental option to switch to the new grease pencil.
* This will switch the grease pencil render engine to gpencil-next which can only render the new object type.
Current grease pencil objects will no longer render.
* Changing this option currently requires a restart of blender (for the keymap to update).
* A conversion setting in the `Object` > `Convert To` operator.
* A drawing operator in `Draw Mode`.

Since the change in #106113 the Slider menu which was called with the D hotkey was no longer in any menu.
This made it really hard to discover.
Since there is now more than 1 menu popup, it needs more than 1 hotkey.
The idea is that the ALT key is used in combination with keys that are easy to reach with the left hand.
Right now it is ALT+S and ALT+D but if needed in the future it can be extended to f, w and e

- Samplerate -> Sample rate: should be two words.
- "Falloff type the feather": typo.
- JPEG, OpenJPEG and JPEG 2000 are the official spellings of the
respective projects.
- "... boundary of image(including ...": missing space.
- "Points in . direction (cannot be changed ...)":
Plural, it is a collection of multiple points. Also do not use
contraction for "cannot".
- The Bevel modifier's "Only Vertices" option was replaced by a
Vertices mode in 2.90.
- "Metaball Types": affects one object, should be singular.
- "Metaball data-block to defined blobby surfaces": typo.
- "Wire Size": this option has nothing to do with wireframes, I suppose
it's an old terminology.
- "... (for negative speed.)": remove trailing period.
- "Smooth factor effect": the prop describes a factor for an effect,
not an effect for a factor.
- "... assigned to their vertices(ensures ...": missing space.
- "... used when faces have the ObColor mode enabled": ObColor is not
used anywhere else in the UI (since Blender 2.50).
- "Effect Children": typo -> Affect.
- "Distort Min/Max": copy-pasted from another pair of properties.
- "... dismiss menu on release.(in 1/100ths of sec)": replace period
with space.
- "resolution": field names should be capitalized.

This contains the basis of the new overlay engine.
Only a few overlays are ported for proof of concept of the new design.
This new design unifies the selection drawing with the overlay-next engine.
It now becomes responsible of selection in object mode.
For this we create a dedicated shader module that patches the shaders
for selection.
Note that the gizmo selection still uses the occlusion queries and edit-mode
the current selection engine (select_engine.c).
