Mixing testing and actual action in a single function is just not a good
way to do things, and the 'testing' feature is not used anywhere
anymore, time to get rid of it.
This flag became a full duplicate of `IDTYPE_FLAGS_NO_LIBLINKING`, which
is a good thing (don't think we ever want to be able to link some data,
without being able to make it local...).
So we can now remove it and use `IDTYPE_FLAGS_NO_LIBLINKING` instead.
Scene and related pointer parameter can be NULL in link/append code, in
which case there is no instantiation of new objects/collections/obdata.
Link code in blendloader was already checking that, new instantiation
code in WM area from yesterday did not.
Issue introduced by rB3be5ce4aad5e.
This commit fully refactors the way linked IDs are made local when
appended.
Previously, `BKE_library_make_local` was (ab)used for this task, but it
was missing some contextual data and doing complex processing to try to
work around this, with limited sucess. Further more, it was nearly
impossibe to extend (e.g. to get new append behaviors necessary for the
asset project).
The new code is a dedicated append step in WM linking process.
NOTE: BPY API (`libray.load()` context manager) uses its own code here,
which still relies on `BKE_library_make_local` for appending.
Unfortunately, merging those two different code paths is not trivial so
for now this API will remain unchanged.
Fix T55629: Append already linked Data is impossible.
Changing active side was introduced in {rB7ff6bfd1e0af} but was never
working for tools/operators other than the sculpt line mask tool.
While for most tools/operators this actually does not make sense, the
bisect tool/operator can actually benefit from it.

This was implemented in {rB14d56b4217f8} but was never working for
tools/operators other than the sculpt line mask tool.
To be precise, the preview actually snapped but the operations (e.g.
mesh bisect, vertex weight gradient) still happened "unsnapped" in
modal. For the sculpt line mask tool this wasnt a problem, because it
only draws a preview while modal, the actual mask was only applied
later.
This solves part one of T91320 (snapping), sculpting also introduced
flipping in {rB7ff6bfd1e0af} which does not make much sense for all
tools, but in bisect this could actually be supported, will add that in
a separate Diff.

Caused by {rB3e4d720ae483}.
Before above commit, this had a different path handling and
RNA_path_from_ID_to_struct() was always used [which kind of took care of
this]. Now this is only used if ptr represents an ID itself, so we are
"loosing" part of the path.
This patch adds the path back on the member_id in
wm_context_member_from_ptr() for everthing related to space_data, so
WM_context_path_resolve_property_full() can construct a full path even
for these.

Use context members instead of not working well or failing due to:
- Missing "path" functions (in the case of edit-bones).
- Paths containing names (in the case of sequence-strips or pose-bones).
While technically correct it's not useful for shortcuts or
menu items to lookup data by name.
Only append RNA_path_from_ID_to_struct to context attributes if those
paths resolve to ID types.
Also simplify creating RNA paths by adding utility functions:
- WM_context_path_resolve_property_full
- WM_context_path_resolve_full
Part of fix for T90723.
Compressing blendfiles can help save a lot of disk space, but the slowdown
while loading and saving is a major annoyance.
Currently Blender uses Zlib (aka gzip aka Deflate) for compression, but there
are now several more modern algorithms that outperform it in every way.
In this patch, I decided for Zstandard aka Zstd for several reasons:
- It is widely supported, both in other programs and libraries as well as in
general-purpose compression utilities on Unix
- It is extremely flexible - spanning several orders of magnitude of
compression speeds depending on the level setting.
- It is pretty much on the Pareto frontier for all of its configurations
(meaning that no other algorithm is both faster and more efficient).
One downside of course is that older versions of Blender will not be able to
read these files, but one can always just re-save them without compression or
decompress the file manually with an external tool.
The implementation here saves additional metadata into the compressed file in
order to allow for efficient seeking when loading. This is standard-compliant
and will be ignored by other tools that support Zstd.
If the metadata is not present (e.g. because you manually compressed a .blend
file with another tool), Blender will fall back to sequential reading.
Saving is multithreaded to improve performance. Loading is currently not
multithreaded since it's not easy to predict the access patterns of the
loading code when seeking is supported.
In the future, we might want to look into making this more predictable or
disabling seeking for the main .blend file, which would then allow for
multiple background threads that decompress data ahead of time.
The compression level was chosen to get sizes comparable to previous versions
at much higher speeds. In the future, this could be exposed as an option.

Instead of handling mmap, compression etc. all directly in readfile.c, refactor
the code to use a generic FileReader.
This makes it easier to add new compression methods or similar, and allows to
reuse the logic in other places (e.g. thumbnail reading).

This addresses reduced visibility of scenes (as displayed in the VR
headset) that can result from the 8-bit color depth format currently
used for XR swapchain images.
By switching to a swapchain format with higher color depth (RGB10_A2,
RGBA16, RGBA16F) for supported runtimes, visibility in VR should be
noticeably improved.
However, current limitations are lack of support for these higher
color depth formats by some XR runtimes, especially for OpenGL.
Also important to note that GPU_offscreen_create() now explicitly
takes in the texture format (eGPUTextureFormat) instead of a
"high_bitdepth" boolean.

There was already some code for that, but it was broken, and proper
resync was completely missing.
There might still be more resync needed in library linking operators
though.
Clearing the window was done in wm_file_read_post which was deferred.
This was needed as it left the context in an invalid state
where the window was set but the screen wasn't.

editor.
Originally the operator name was drawn next to the dragging content.
After that there was an option to add custom, static text with the
dragging content. This patch allows dynamic text to be drawn.
The custom text was implemented as out parameter of the poll function
what made the code unclear. This patch introduces a tooltip function
that separates tooltip generation from the poll function.
NOTE: the text should always be returned in its own memory block. This
block will be freed after it is copied in the drag struct.
