This is to simplify the usage of Volumetrics.
Now it automatically detect if there is any Volumetric material in the
view and allocate the needed buffer if any.
- Move the Channels setting to the View panel
- Remove double separators in the View panel
- Close the Scene panel by default - it only applies in rare cases
- Move the Frame Overlay from the header to a sidebar panel
Previously it used a strange ghost icon, and it make the other controls jump around
Now uses clearer naming
scene.update() needs to be replaced with view_layer.update() after
rBe693918d4074
note: will go over other occurances of scene.update() in a different
commit
For existing files, it will use the setting from Cycles or Eevee depending on
the render engine in the scene.

This new filter allows to select only some type of keyframe (keyframe, breakdown, etc).
This was a request of artists that are used to work with other 2D softwares.
Also some cleanup to remove aninmatable option to some properties.
- Use single column layout
- Move the rather obscure Backdrop toggle into the View menu
- Use correct units for Crop and Offset (pixels)
- Re-organize the sidebar in 2 main groups: Adjust & Info
Adjust includes Compositing, Offset, Crop, Video, Color, Sound
Info includes strip name, path, start/end and other data
Original changes by tintwotin, with changes and adjustments on top by me
* Align category icons and color use with Default theme.
* Set colors for new properties and regions.
* Fix several issues.
Needs further testing to tackle all editors but this puts it at much more
usable level compared to how it was.
Helps to:
* Make a connection between what we see in Outliner, Viewport and Properties editor
(clicking on the obdata icon takes us to Edit mode, which shares colors).
* Quickly tell which mode we are in.
* Armatures have now distinct color when in Object, Edit, and Pose modes.
Missing is Pose mode which is currently cyan in the viewport and obdata category in properties,
it would probably need its own special category though as it doesn't match the others.
The choices are now World, View and 3D Cursor.
This breaks Python API compatibility, add-ons that add objects with this
parameter will need to be updated.

This is the angular diameter as seen from earth, which is between 0.526° and
0.545° in reality. Sharing the size with other light types did not make much
sense and meant the unit was unclear.

This removes the ability to hit X or Del to delete data from inside the File Browser.
This was extremely dangerous because it didn't use the system trash/recycle bin. This made it a very dangerous operation with no way to get data back.
Later on, we should add support for the OS trash through native API's, but until then we will remove this feature from the keymaps.
This addresses T61412 and T64104
This uses the Blender icon that previously activated the splash.
Menu items which apply to the application are located here:
startup file, app templates & preferences.
No major API change here, only in the outliner restriction column
variables (e.g., show_restrict_column_selectable > show_restrict_column_select).
* Get rid of _INSTANCE (introduced on b1af682001).
* Differentiate (everywhere but the API) between HIDE (temporary) and VIEWPORT (global).
* Use the expected icon for restrict viewport (same as objects and modifiers).
* selectable > select
