There are many accumulated unused properties in theme. Generally, it's a mess,
lot of copy-paste errors and leftovers between editors, shared functions with no
actual use, etc. Some were just added and never used, like Pattern and Layout nodes,
which were meant to be used with Texture Nodes I believe, but it never happened.
Overall 19 properties removed:
- 3D Viewport: Edge UV Face Select
- 3D Viewport: Last Selected Point
- Dope Sheet/Timeline: Value Sliders
- Dope Sheet/Timeline: View Sliders
- Nonlinear Animation: View Sliders
- Video Sequencer: Window Sliders
- Graph Editor/Drivers: Window Sliders
- Graph Editor/Drivers: Vertex Bevel
- Graph Editor/Drivers: Vertex Group Unreferenced
- Image/UV Editor: Vertex Bevel
- Image/UV Editor: Vertex Group Unreferenced
- Image/UV Editor: Freestyle Face Mask
- Image/UV Editor: Face Retopology
- Image/UV Editor: Face Orientation Front
- Image/UV Editor: Face Orientation Back
- Node Editors: Selected Text
- Node Editors: Pattern Node
- Node Editors: Layout Node
- Video Sequencer: Draw Action
---
Details:
- Made Vertex Bevel and Vertex Group Unreferenced colors in `rna_def_userdef_theme_spaces_vertex`
optional, so that they don't appear in Graph Editor and UV Editor theme properties, where they're unused.
- Same thing in `rna_def_userdef_theme_spaces_face` for face attributes (Freestyle Mark, Retopology),
so that they don't appear in UV Editor, where they're unused. Also did same for face orientation colors,
but used different argument for them, since they could be used in future (remember seeing PR for this).

This PR adds an optional block alert level, defaulting to none. Then
for error-level alerts only it adds a red line and a color icon.
Dialogs with other alert types do not change at all. This also adds

Continuing #140360, after 39c066ee53
Moving curve handle colors & size from space editors into common theme properties.
They are now shared by 3D Viewport, Image Editor, Graph Editor, and Movie Clip Editor,
instead of each of them having their own properties.
(Video in PR)
---
Details:
- NURB U/V lines, active spline, and last selected point colors were defined
in `rna_def_userdef_theme_spaces_curves` but were optional and only called by
3D viewport. Since no other editor calls that function anymore, I removed it and
moved those properties directly inside `rna_def_userdef_theme_space_view3d`.
- In Image Editor & Movie Clip Editor (Mask mode), curves don't ever show
selection colors, and Vector handles are generally never visible, that is
bug/missing in Blender in general, not a result of this PR.
- Handle vertex size were included in Dope Sheet and NLA, where handles don't
exist. Now as a side effect they're removed as well.

Next step of #140360, continuing after 39c066ee53
Moves more animation theme properties shared by different editors to the new Common panel.
- Playhead (was shared by 7 editors)
- Marker Line (was shared by 5 editors)
- Marker Line Selected (was shared by 5 editors)
- Channel (was shared by 3 editors)
- Sub-channel (was shared by 3 editors)
- Channel Group (was shared by 2 editors)
- Active Channel Group (was shared by 2 editors)
In total, 27 properties are replaced with 7.
---
User Visible Changes:
- "Current Frame" is renamed to "Playhead". It was general sentiment among
Anim and UI modules to rename this everywhere after "Playhead Snapping" was
added, and this is first step towards that. Name is more recognizable and it's
clear it refers to UI element, rather than something as generic as "current frame".
- Channel, Sub-channel, Channel Group, and Active Channel Group colors in
Dope Sheet had alpha, but ones in Graph and NLA editors didn't. New common
property is used for all three of them and has alpha, meaning two editors gain
alpha as well, but they don't use alpha, still only Dope Sheet does.
- Channel and Sub-channel had different color in NLA and didn't match Dope Sheet
and Graph Editor, now since it's shared it has same color, which is a visual change
(slighlty lighter blue).

The repeat zone color is changed back to the color it used in 4.5, to
avoid the need for people to re-learn the color. The closure socket and
zone share the same color, which is made more yellow-ish to distinguish
it from the bundle socket color.
Edge and Vertex marks such as Crease, Bevel Weight, Seam, Sharp, have
specific use cases and colors assigned to them that users get familiar
with over time.
It can be hard to remember which color belong to what, this PR tries to
address this by introducing colored icons that follow the theme setting
for that edge mark/flag.

The W channel in quaternion and axis-angle F-Curves is now themeable
(defaulting to yellow), instead of incorrectly blending the X and Y axis
theme colors.
The original blending math did not take into account that the hue
channel actually wraps around, and so the blended color became blue
instead of the intended yellow.
Instead of fixing the math, the theme has been expanded for this W axis.
The default color is set to the mathematically correct yellow.

This PR does two things:
- Creates new panel in theme preferences called "Common" that
doesn't belong to any editor
- Moves "Preview Range" property in common, and removes it
from animation editors.
Now, there is a single theme property for preview range, rather
than 5 for each animation editor.

HDR video files are properly read into Blender, and can be rendered out
of Blender.
HDR video reading / decoding:
- Two flavors of HDR are recognized, based on color related video
metadata: "PQ" (Rec.2100 Perceptual Quantizer, aka SMPTE 2084) and
"HLG" (Rec.2100 Hybrid-Log-Gamma, aka ARIB STD B67). Both are read
effectively into floating point images, and their color space
transformations are done through OpenColorIO.
- The OCIO config shipped in Blender has been extended to contain
Rec.2100-PQ and Rec.2100-HLG color spaces.
- Note that if you already had a HDR video in sequencer or movie clip,
it would have looked "incorrect" previously, and it will continue to
look incorrect, since it already has "wrong" color space assigned to
it. Either re-add it (which should assign the correct color space),
or manually change the color space to PQ or HLG one as needed.
HDR video writing / encoding"
- For H.265 and AV1 the video encoding options now display the HDR mode.
Similar to reading, there are PQ and HLG HDR mode options.
- Reference white is assumed to be 100 nits.
- YUV uses "full" ("PC/jpeg") color range.
- No mastering display metadata is written into the video file, since
generally that information is not known inside Blender.

wm_cursors.cc using bitmaps and masks that we edit with a python
program) with SVG sources that are rasterized at the exact size when

At the moment, only menus and tooltips have a shadow. However, other

This patch removes the older handle selection and transformation logic,
which was accessible through user preferences by switching off the
default "simple tweaking" mode in Editing -> Video Sequencer.
There was some initial bugginess with the new handle behavior, hence
the option to revert to legacy mode, but with recent updates this no
longer applies. With the new system, all selection workflows
are still possible -- this just drops older code to make things simpler.
No functional changes intended.

The tabs in the sidebar are aligned to the content, which looks great

This allows to reduce the waiting time caused by
shader compilation on some GPU-driver combo.
A new settings in the User Preferences make it
possible to override the default amount of worker
threads and optionally use subprocesses.
We still use only one worker thread in cases where
there is no benefit with adding more workers
(like AMD pro driver and Intel windows).
It doesn't scale as much as subprocesses for material
shader compilation but that is for other reasons
explained in #139818.
Add some heuristic to avoid too much memory usage
and / or too many stalls.
Also add some heuristic to the default number of subprocess for
the platform that shows scalling.
Historically, multithreaded compilation was prevented by the
need of context per thread inside `DRWShader` module.
Also there was no good scaling at that time. But
nowadays numbers shows different results with
good scaling with reasonable amount of threads on many
platforms.
Even if we are going for vulkan in the next release
most of the legacy hardware will still use OpenGL for
a few other releases. So it is relevant to make this
easy improvement.
See pull request for measurements.

- Navigation modes has been redefined a bit and introduced in a form of
an enum so that new ones can me implemented in the future.
Additionally switching between modes shouldn't require any additional
configurations like inverting all the axes.
Currently there are only 2 modes implemented,
but 2 more are planned and will be proposed in follow-up PRs.
Implemented modes are:
- Object: works like "Orbit" option.
but has all axes implicitly inverted
- Fly: works the same as "Free".
- "Turntable" option has been turned into "Lock Horizon".
This single option works for both normal navigation and Fly/Walk
modes now.
- Pan and Rotation axes inversion has been removed from default
configuration.
- UI has been simplified following the design from #136880.
- Zoom Invert has been removed since it looks like a duplication of
`NDOF_PANZ_INVERT`.

Overall the goal of the PR is to show the preview range in the
clip editor's dopesheet and graph mode.
To accomplish this, some cleanup and refactor were needed:
- Clip editor had a nearly 1:1 copy paste of the timeline draw code,
which has been replaced with `ANIM_draw_framerange`.
- Preview range draw code required `bContext`, which was only used to
access scene. Now scene is passed explicitly, without need to know the
context.
- The macro to access the preview range was removed. This is because the
code is within `PRVRANGEON` check, so `PSFRA`/`PEFRA` were doing
redundant checks.

Rework internals of how VSE caching is done. Primarily to make all the
caching logic more understandable from development point of view, but
also has several user visible implications (more details in the PR):
- Simpler and fewer caching UI options,
- Disk cache is gone (primary reason: proxies are kinda the same thing),
- VSE cache size set in preferences is actual size used for VSE caches
now (previously caching stopped as soon as whole Blender used that
much memory, even if some memory usage was not about VSE at all),
- Certain scenarios of cache invalidation are faster now.
