The operator refused to pack libraries with absolute paths (wasnt the
case in its original implementation 16411da41e, but was added in
129fb516f4 -- for the reason of preventing "bad things happen on
unpacking" without an explanation of what these exactly are). It did so
by cancelling as soon as **one** library with ab absolute path was
found.
Now with the introduction of essential assets, we have those absolute
path linkages more or less "by default" as soon as e.g. a brush is
used, so the operator is more or less unusable now. NOTE: these absolute
essential asset library paths seem to be converted to relative on save?
Upon reload, these are then gone... (might be another hint for an
alternative fix, see below)
By "bad things happen on unpacking" I would assume the scenario of
folders being created in unwanted locations (e.g. when moving from one
OS to another), but the same thing is also true for packing **files**
instead of libraries (there, absolute paths are allowed, and unpacking
in original locations can equally fail or create folder structures that
are "unexpected"). NOTE: for files though we have the choice of
unpacking to a relative folder (which wouldnt really be possible since
libraries can be nested and we would have to correct paths all over the
place). NOTE: the chance of creating "unwanted" folder structures with
relative paths might be slimmer, but if you have a lot of "upwards"
parent folders, relative can easily "break" as well.
Possible ways to resolve this:
### [1] skip libraries identified as essentials assets (still cancel on all other absolute paths)
Can check a library path to be contained in `EssentialsAssetLibrary`
`essentials_directory_path`. This would be the safest imo since it is a no-behavior change.
### [2] lift the limitation of absolute paths alltogether
Like mentioned above, things could break with "relative" almost as
easily as with "absolute", there might even be scenarios where
"absolute" is wanted. It is a more behavior-changing fix that we might
explore more after 4.4 is out.
### [3] skip absolute libraries (but continue with non-absolute libraries)
This does change behavior as well (it does not cancel as soon as **one**
library with ab absolute path was found anymore, but the worst case
scenario is that you end up with an "incomplete" file if you really
mixed absolute and realtive lib linking).
This PR implements [1] for now, [2] or [3] can follow for 4.5.

`ColorManagedDisplaySettings`, `ColorManagedViewSettings`,
`ColorManagedInputColorspaceSettings` were affected since these are used
from multiple places (Scene, File output nodes, ..).
Similar to how we are getting the path for `ImageFormatSettings` (which
pretty much has the distinction logic already), we can do so for the
ColorManage Settings as well (piggbacking on the already correct path to
the `ImageFormatSettings`.
With this, we can also remove these "known failures" from the test
introduced in 4032b853c3.

Volumes' "Sequence Mode" recently got the "Sequence" context in
2b3f0d0110. The intention was to disambiguate the "Extend" enum item,
but this caused another item, "Clip" to also get this context. That
one already existed and referred to a sequencer clip.
Use the more specific "Volume" context instead.
Reported by Gabriel Gazzán.
Commit 8ff8fc4859 changed the context for the modes in Merge Nodes
and Change Nodes operators to Nodetree. The enum items were thus
extracted using this context, but the UI Menus were not updated to
reflect this change and a few items were no longer translated.
This commit fixes the issue by using the same translation context for
the menus' drawing.
These have bugs in with the latest HIP-RT and HIP SDK, so just disable them
as we do not expect a fix in time, and rolling back would re-introduce other
bugs. As RDNA1 does not have hardware raytracing, it is also less important
to use HIP-RT.
Note that only RDNA2+ is officially supported by HIP, so these GPUs working
at all is somewhat lucky.

OpenEXR DWA compression in Blender is derived from a more user-friendly
quality slider which has an intuitive range 0 .. 100.
Initially the mapping was done so that the visually lossless JPEG
quality of 97 was mapped to the default DWA compression 45. A point was
made that we should make it so default quality is mapped to the default
compression, following the intent of DWA for rendering and compositing
the main target.
This change adjusts the mapping so that quality of 90 is mapped to DWA
compression 45.
This change relies on the library update to fully utilize the DWA
compression #135037.
This change leads to the difference in the way proxies of EXR images
are generated:
```
DWA compression Size (bytes)
Before the change 750 175,208,243
After the change 225 77,838,827
```
It is worth noting that the DWA compression seemed to be ignored in
the 4.4 branch before this change (this is what the original report is
about, a bit indirectly).
This is measured on the Fabrik Eingang footage converted to EXR. The
absolute value is ptobably not that important, it just shows the
reduction in size. This also leads to a lower quality of the proxy
image, but it is not worse than an actual JPEG proxy: the quality is
set to rather low 50 for the strip proxies.

The code-path for coercing a dictionary to operator/gizmo properties
was being used RNA functions where it's not supported.
Raise a type exception instead of crashing.
Suppress exporting this attribute as there's no conversion to USD that
supports its data type (2d, 16-bit int) and because mesh normals (from
the `corner_normals` API) are already exported. This causes a rather
annoying UI Warning notification that the attribute isn't convertible
during export.

With 4c67c78452 we changed the default theme color for front faces,
used by the Face Orientation overlay, to have zero alpha so that it
could be used in more cases. But versioning updated this for all old
files, which can overwrite users who made deliberate changes to it.
This PR alters the versioning code to only change the color if it
currently exactly matches the old default.

The visibility of Geometry Nodes gizmos sometimes depends on the
selected nodes in a node editor. Therefore, when the editor is closed,
the set of available gizmos has to be refreshed.
The enum items propagation mechanism for Menu sockets makes a local copy of item
pointers to propagate between node group inputs and interface definitions.
In case these items are not used (e.g. because they are already shared with the
socket) the local copy must still be released to avoid leaking the memory.
This only happens with more than 4 enum items, because of the internal default
buffer for `Vector`.

- Refactor tagging logic into a function to remove duplicate code
The two phases of tagging were identical logic just with the variables
and tag values swapped. This change ensures the two loops use matching
behavior.
- Adjust iteration to prevent restarting from the beginning of the mesh
after each island.
- Simplify and speed iteration tests.
testing to ensure v->e is non-null is redundant - verts with no edges
would never have passed `bm_vert_dissolve_fan_test` in the first
place, so can't be tagged as `VERT_INDEX_INIT`.
Re-testing `bm_vert_dissolve_fan_test(v)` is redundant - it was
checked above, and during tagging, the topology does not change.
Topology only changes later, after tagging is complete.
Therefore it's guaranteed to return the same result as the first time.
- Simplify loop logic, rename vars for clarity
offset and nth were constants, and depth was what causes alternation.
However none of that math is necessary - it can simply be done with
call order.
'seek_a' and 'seek_b' were renamed to what they actually are - lists
of verts that are tagged for collapse and ignore, respectively.
Further, by checking if any verts were tagged during the first
iteration pass, the second iteration pass can be avoided entirely if
it will perform no work.

For MacOS, when hovering your mouse over the area corner "action zones"
the Status Bar shows a "Swap Areas" item that has unnecessary spacing
between the Control modifier key icon and left mouse button icon. This
is because I forget different icons were shown for Mac. This PR just
uses the proper calculated spacing that knows better.

Our text wrapping code is written in a way that requires the Line Feed
character to be in our glyph cache. This is problematic as none of the
control characters will ever be there if not using fallback. With
fallback these glyphs could be a zero-width character from a symbol
font, or something with width if using a last resort font. So we'd have
to ignore the advance in the latter case. This came to a head recently
because we are turning off fallback in some circumstances. 12b1f8bd7a
removed the rendering of control characters so they are never in the
cache. That change requires this one, which does wrapping based on the
string's codepoint, not that of its glyph.

Avoid non valid glTF file by avoiding exporting multiple slots with same target_id_type in the same animation for a single object:
- Make sure to create multiple animation when needed
- Use action.name for active slots (can have multiple slots when different target_id_type)
- Use action.name - slot.name_display for additional animations
Same was true for SimpleDeform.
Invert vertex group influence should only have an effect if there is a
group specified.
Shrinkwrap always uses a weight (gets weights via
`BKE_defvert_array_find_weight_safe` -- which gets full weight for no
group specified, rightfully so), if this gets inverted, we get no
influence at all.
Now move the inverting of the weights to `BKE_defvert_array_find_weight_safe`,
adjust the other callers accordingly (Bevel also does not need to check for a valid
vertexgroup beforehand).

Since the transform system uses previous positions to update to
"original" positions upon cancel, the elastic transforms are not working
well with this (due to their `TransformDisplacementMode::Incremental`
nature).
To resolve, rely on restoring positions from undo (as done elsewhere in

`BKE_modifier_copy_ex` did it (which is called e.g. when copying the
whole stack from one object to another), but when simply duplicating a
modifier (`modifier_copy`), it was just ensuring a unique name (based on
