Py Docs: Document delayed setting of UI data
...
Blender may not apply certain UI data changes immediately when done via BPY.
This is a rather typical gotcha, better to have it documented.

Especially with new undo/redo it is even less recommended to perform
complex operations in those callbacks, they should remain as fast and
localized as possible.
Also updated the section about undo/redo a bit.

As exposed in T62406, we can have some rare cases of crashes due to
memory re-allocation happening outside of expected scenarii.
Ideally this should be re-designed, but at least keep track of those
known exceptions to general rules...

* Added a TL;DR first paragraph summarizing that one shall not keep any
reference to Blender data when modifying its container.
* Added some info about fact that adding items to some data containers
(like Collection) can also invalidate existing items (due to array
re-allocation).
* Added a Do/Don't example which shows a crash after adding some items
to a collection.
Related to T61297.

Python API: add loop triangles access, remove tessfaces.
...
Loop triangles are tessellated triangles create from polygons, for renderers
or exporters that need to match Blender's polygon tesselation exactly. These
are a read-only runtime cache.
Tessfaces are a legacy data structure from before Blender supported n-gons,
and were already mostly removed from the C code.
Details on porting code to loop triangles is in the release notes.
