This adds a shallow check to see if the node group has been changed. If it has
been changed, the weak library reference is removed so that the node group will
be loaded from the source file again. This should become unnecessary once we
have asset embedding.
There are probably still ways to make Blender behave unexpectedly when editing
the Smooth by Angle node group, but this should already cover common edits. More
precise checks could be added as necessary.

This changes the `ListBase` argument for certain motion path functions
to `Vector<MPathTarget *>`. (and `Span`)
To better describe what the function is doing,
`animviz_get_object_motionpaths` has been renamed
to `animviz_build_motionpath_targets`.
Since `BLI_freelistN` can no longer be used, I added
`animviz_free_motionpath_targets`.
Note that the Vector is of `MPathTarget *` which
are allocated the C way. Because the `MPathTarget` struct is defined
in the .cc file, that's the only way for it to work atm.
Other refactors may mitigate that in the future, but I wanted to keep
the scope small.

Grease Pencil tool settings could have different selection modes for
different object modes (like edit mode and sculpt mode). This fix
ensures when switching object modes, the selection domain is updated to
match the selection mode.

This shows a "2 object(s) hidden" notification on the status bar when
hiding objects, the same as we do when deleting objects. Pressing "H"
can be done accidentally so this is at least some indication of what
happened, both on the status bar in Info Editor. Obviously does nothing
if nothing is selected when you press "H"

NOTE: This also required some changes to Cycles code itself, who is now
directly including `BKE_image.hh` instead of declaring a few prototypes
of these functions in its `blender/utils.h` header (due to C++ functions
names mangling, this was not working anymore).

In this case there are two dependency graphs, each with a separate
object containing the original mesh. Leaving edit mode modifies the
original mesh by deleting the edit mesh data. The active dependency
graph's object was tagged for that change, but the other dependency
graph didn't know about the change because its object wasn't tagged.
The solution is to tag the original mesh which will cause any
dependency graph using it to properly reevaluate.

This is due to missing rebuild of outliner tree. Auto smooth operator
is cleared with shade flat execution but outliner is unaware of this and
the modifier tree element remains intact. This add a notifier.

Add new ID_IS_EDITABLE macro that checks if the ID can be edited in the
user interface. Replace usage of ID_IS_LINKED where it is used with this
meaning.
Also add a corresponding ID.is_editable property for Python.
This prepares for the ability to edit some linked datablocks for brush
assets.

Based on the design in #120230.
* Replaces the `Shade Smooth by Angle` operator with `Shade Auto Smooth`
in the object context menu menu.
* The new operator automatically adds and removes the modifier instead
of being a destructive operation.
* The `Shade Smooth` and `Shade Flat` operators now remove the
`Smooth by Angle` modifier automatically.
* Add a pin option to modifiers, which limits dragging and keeps the
modifier after newly added modifiers in the list.

The main motivation for this is that it's part of a fix for #113377,
where I want to propagate the edit mesh pointers through copied
meshes in modifiers and geometry nodes, instead of just setting the
edit mesh pointer at the end of the modifier stack. That would have
two main benefits:
1. We avoid the need to write to the evaluated mesh, after evaluation
which means it can be shared directly among evaluated objects.
2. When an object's mesh is completely replaced by the mesh from another
object during evaluation (with the object info node), the final edit
mesh pointer will not be "wrong", allowing us to skip index-mapped
GPU data extraction.
Beyond that, using a shared pointer just makes things more automatic.
Handling of edit mesh data is already complicated enough, this way some
of the worry and complexity can be handled by RAII.
One thing to keep in mind is that the edit mesh's BMesh is still freed
manually with `EDBM_mesh_free_data` when leaving edit mode. I figured
that was a more conservative approach for now. Maybe eventually that
could be handled automatically with RAII too.

Move the public functions from the editors/object (`ED_object.hh`)
header to the `blender::ed::object` namespace, and move all of the
implementation files to the namespace too. This provides better code
completion, makes it easier to use other C++ code, removes unnecessary
redundancy and verbosity from local uses of public functions, and more
cleanly separates different modules.
See the diff in `ED_object.hh` for the main renaming changes.

Previously retrieving a collection from the context like "selected_ids"
would give a linked list of allocated items. Now it returns a vector of
RNA pointers. Though the number of items is typically fairly small,
using contiguous memory and avoiding many small allocations are
typical performance improvements that could still be beneficial
when there are many items. Iteration also becomes much simpler.

An alternative fix would be calling `update_on_change_` in the
attribute `try_create`function, but sticking with this more
conservative fix seems better for 4.1.

The property is actually there, but was marked PROP_SKIP_SAVE |
PROP_HIDDEN in 4234cddda9
This PR removes this again (with the consequence that shortcuts/menu
entries will now remember the select setting from the last time).
This is now in line to how editmode does this (the "Reveal Hidden"
operator).

Auto-save currently only really works in modes that use the `MemFile` undo step,
that excludes things like mesh edit and sculpt mode. Previously, Blender would
attempt to auto-save in those modes, but it would only save the last state from
before the mode was entered, which is useless when staying in the mode for longer.
This problem is *not* fixed here. However, the code now explicitly skips auto-saving
in order to avoid unnecessary short freezes in these modes when Blender auto-saves.
Furthermore, the auto-save will now happen when changing modes.
This reduces the impact of save-time-regressions with #106903.

The depsgraph CoW mechanism is a bit of a misnomer. It creates an
evaluated copy for data-blocks regardless of whether the copy will
actually be written to. The point is to have physical separation between
original and evaluated data. This is in contrast to the commonly used
performance improvement of keeping a user count and copying data
implicitly when it needs to be changed. In Blender code we call this
"implicit sharing" instead. Importantly, the dependency graph has no
idea about the _actual_ CoW behavior in Blender.
Renaming this functionality in the despgraph removes some of the
confusion that comes up when talking about this, and will hopefully
make the depsgraph less confusing to understand initially too. Wording
like "the evaluated copy" (as opposed to the original data-block) has
also become common anyway.

This simplifies code using these functions because of RAII,
range based for loops, and the lack of output arguments.
Also pass object pointer array as a span in more cases.
