This allows Python scripts to easily determine what Slot a Channelbag is
for. This is particularly important because we're trying to discourage
the use of Slot handles in the Python APIs, and before this the only
way to identify which Slot a Channelbag was for was via the Channelbag's
`slot_handle` property.

Brush and pose asset operators were doing some avoidable roundtrips
through asset types, lookups and rather low level operations. This
indicates that the asset system APIs need some improvements. Moving
lower-level logic there can help avoiding errors, since implementation
details are kept inside the corresponding module.
- Avoid lookups for asset library reference in operator code, make asset
library itself construct it.
- Avoid redundant lookups for asset library definition (was looking up
the asset library definition in the Preferences from the library
reference type, just to turn it into the reference type again).
- Add utility for refreshing loading asset libraries
- Add utility for saving asset catalogs for an asset
- Remove unused function
The previous name was confusingly similar to the new method
`identifier_prefix()` that was introduced in #133983. This new name
better distinguishes them while also reflecting its actual functionality
better and being shorter.

Previous implementation used the resource state tracker which is a hash
table lookup. `is_link_to_buffer` is a bit cheaper as it is compares
already loaded data.
Copy-paste of keyframes is now slot-aware. See [1] for the design.
[1]: https://developer.blender.org/docs/features/animation/tools/action-editor-copy-paste/
In short:
- Copy-paste still works broadly as it used to. Only the visible
F-Curves are pasted into.
- Slot identifiers matter when copying from multiple slots. When
copying from one slot, they don't.
- Selection of channels (either F-Curves or Slots) determines where
keys get pasted into.
- Pasting will either copy from the slot with the same identifier
(when identifiers matter), or paste whatever was copied (when they
do not).
- If both F-Curves and slots are selected, only the selected F-Curves
get pasted into, and slots without any selected F-Curves are ignored
(i.e. target is only defined by selected F-Curves, or only by
selected slots, never by a mixture).

Some versions of PySide give errors when imported together with
bpy.app.translations, because the latter uses a tp_name that does not
exist. The only other tp_name we have with a dot in it (bgl.Buffer)
does exist.

The box/lasso select code called `evaluate_fcurve()` to evaluate the
driver F-Curve, which is not meant for drivers. It now calls
`evaluate_fcurve_only_curve()`, which is meant for this purpose (only
evaluates the F-Curve part of the F-Curve, and ignore the driver).

Previously it was possible to make the type prefix of a Slot's identifier get
out-of-sync with its actual target ID type, by setting the identifier via
Python.
This PR changes `Slot.identifier` assignment to ensure that the type prefix is
set to match `target_id_type`. This now makes it impossible for the identifier
prefix and `target_id_type` to get out of sync, since this API previously was
the only way to accomplish that.
When the prefix that the user attempts to set doesn't match the `target_id_type`
of the Slot, a warning is issued telling the user about the mismatch and that
the identifier has been set with the correct prefix instead.

This fixes the case when the screen update timer would not be reset
when seeking leading to screen updates happening mid frame.
For example when jumping to a keyframe during playback.
Note that this doesn't reset the timer when no audio is playing.
It would be nice to have it happen there as well. But it is probably not
too noticeable.

Most of the old Animato properties on an Action (e.g. FCurve list, Channel
Groups) already act as proxies for the data for the first slot in the first
strip of the first layer. (Say that three times fast!) However, this was not yet
the case for `Action.id_root`.
This PR changes `Action.id_root` to act as a proxy for the first Slot's
`target_id_type` property, both for reading and writing.
If the Action has no Slots, then reading always returns 'UNSPECIFIED', and
writing will create a Slot and set its `target_id_type`.
Note that the ability to write to the first Slot's `target_id_type` via
`Action.id_root` conflicts with `target_id_type` supposedly only being writable
when it's still 'UNSPECIFIED' (#133883). Although that's certainly a little
weird, practically speaking this doesn't break anything for now, and is a
temporary kludge to keep `id_root` working until we can remove it in Blender
5.0. `id_root` will be removed entirely in 5.0, resolving this inconsistency.

`def_nr` is decremented twice, this results in shuffling of vgroupdata.
`remove_from_vertex_group` should only deal with weights and not tweak
`def_nr` as defgroup name index is updated in `remove_defgroup_index`
after deletion of selected vgroup. So just remove the code from
`remove_from_vertex_group`.

Similar to how brush assets are created and managed this
PR allows to export pose assets into a different library.
Because of this there is a limitation to this where each
asset is stored in a separate blend file.
This may be lifted in the future as there are planned changes in
the design phase: #122061
### Create Asset
Now available in the 3D viewport in the "Pose" menu: "Create Pose Asset".
The button in the Dope Sheet will now call this new operator as well.
Clicking either of those will open a popup in which you can:
* Choose the name of the asset, which library and catalog it goes into.
* Clicking "Create" will create a pose asset on disk in the given library.
It is possible to create files into an outside library or add it in the current file.
The latter option does a lot less since it basically just creates the
action and tags it as an asset.
If no Asset Shelf **AND** no Asset Browser is visible anywhere in Blender,
the Asset Shelf will be shown on the 3D viewport from which
the operator was called.
### Adjust Pose Asset
Right clicking a pose asset that has been created in the way described
before will have options to overwrite it.
Only the active object will be considered for updating a pose asset
Available Options (the latter 3 under the "Modify Pose Asset" submenu):
* Adjust Pose Asset: From the selected bones, update ONLY channels that
are also present in the asset. This is the default.
* Replace: Will completely replace the data in the Pose Asset from
the current selection
* Add: Adds the current selection to the Pose Asset. Any already existing
channels have their values updated
* Remove: Remove selected bones from the pose asset
Currently this refreshes the thumbnail. In the case of custom
thumbnails it might not be something want
### Deleting an existing Pose Asset
Right click on a Pose Asset and hit "Delete Pose Asset". Works in the shelf
and in the asset library. Doing so will pop up a confirmation dialog,
if confirming, the asset is gone forever. Deleting a local asset is basically the
same as clearing the asset. This is a bit confusing because you get
two options that basically do the same thing sometimes,
but "Delete" works in other cases as well.
I currently don't see a way around that.

This PR fixes an issue that shaders compilation could stall. This could
be seen in the viewport (sometime not showing first EEVEE render) but
was more prominent when running test cases.

The behavior of `RNA_path_from_ID_to_property` /
`RNA_path_from_ID_to_property_index` is that it only gets the "prefix"
of the struct -- the one we are looking for, the one that is missing
here -- if we feed it the `newptr` since it calls
`RNA_path_from_ID_to_struct(ptr)` to get that prefix.
If we feed it the **ID** pointer it will be empty (makes sense it would
basically be "path from ID to ID"...we need it to be "path from ID to
constraint").

This patch allows the compositor context to specify exactly which
outputs it needs, selecting from: Composite, Viewer, File Output, and
Previews. Previously, the compositor fully executed if any of those were
needed, without granular control on which outputs are needed exactly.
For the viewport compositor engine, it requests Composite and Viewer,
with no Previews or File Outputs.
For the render pipeline, it requests Composite and File Output, with
node Viewer or Previews.
For the interactive compositor, it requests Viewer if the backdrop is
visible or an image editor with the viewer image is visible, it requests
Compositor if an image editor with the render result is visible, it
requests Previews if a node editor has previews overlay enabled. File
outputs are never requested.

The `BRUSH_INVERT_TO_SCRAPE_FILL` check inside `brush_flip` applies to
any brush instead of just the Fill and Scrape brush, this means that if
an asset is in a weird state where the user has enabled this flag but
switched away from the brush type, the flag still applies even though
the option is no longer visible.
This commit checks the brush type to ensure it only applies to the
specified types.

New shortcut assigned to operator goes inside "object mode" keymap
intead of `non-modal`. Now fixed with extra condition, since this
operator works in non-object modes. Reason it fails with "object
mode" keymap is the keymap->poll function `object_mode_poll`.

Rename `ActionKeyframeStrip.channels()` to `.channelbag()`, and change
its first parameter from `slot_handle` to `slot`.
This is to be consistent with `ActionKeyframeStrip.channelbags`, which is
the array of channelbags in the keyframe strip. Having a function that's
singluar makes sense for finding a single element in the array.
The change from using the slot handle to using the slot is to be consistent
with `.channelbags.new(slot)`. Furthermore, the Python API should be using
slot handles as little as possible (they're basically meaningless numbers).
Using the slots directly is preferred. If that's not possible, it is
recommended to use the slot identifier (`slot.identifier`) instead, as that
can be used to look up the slot (`action.slots[slot_identifier]`).
This breaks the glTF add-on, which will be fixed in !133915.

The cause was that the shader was expecting both `pos` and `nor`
attribute but only one would be extracted.
This is because the mesh has cage display on but the batch cache
wouldn't extract the `vbo.vnor`.
This patch just make sure the vertex normal just follow the same
condition as the other edit normals batches.
Make sure the gpu subdiv shader variant is only used if there
is no cages as the requested batch has a different layout in
this case.
Also add the missing shader variant for vertex normal display
with GPU subdiv.
Instead of converting to a string immediately, only convert to a string
when necessary, like for trace logging. This reduces the size of the
`USDPrimReader` base class by 24 bytes, makes several Vectors and Maps
smaller at runtime, and reduces some unnecessary string allocations and
conversions in various other places.
The recently added python Hook `get_prim_path` dictionary will now
contain `SdfPath` objects rather than strings; removing the string
conversion cost when calling other USD APIs like `GetPrimAtPath` which
take in `SdfPath` objects to begin with.
This also makes the code a bit more self explanatory since the type
makes it clear what kind of path you are dealing with.
