Adds a "Filter by Active Tool" option for the brush asset shelves,
enabled by default. If enabled, the asset shelf only shows brushes
matching the brush type of the current tool. If the general "Brush" tool
is active, only brushes that are not covered by another tool are
displayed. The popup brush selector always shows all assets.
The option is stored in the Preferences, toggled in the "Display
Settings" popover of the asset shelf.
Note: This is committed to the 4.3 release branch, which was discussed
in advance.

The crash was caused by infinite recursion. When recursing into sub-strips
of an NLA strip, it helps to actually recurse with the pointer to that
sub-strip.

This adds a function to merge layers in original Grease Pencil geometry.
It also adds an operator to merge layers as well as some tests for the `merge_layers` function.
The operator has 3 modes:
* `Merge Down`: Combine the active layer with the layer just below (if there is one).
* `Merge Group`: Combine all the layers in a group into one single layer and remove
the group. Can be accessed in the right-click menu of groups.
* `Merge All`: Combine all the layers of the object into one single layer.
All of these can be accessed in the `Extras` menu next to the layer tree.

The `pre` handler is called after blender internal code is done populating
the link/append context with data to be processed, and before this data
starts being linked from library files.
The `post` handler is called after blender is done linking, and
potentailly appending and/or instantiating, the requested data and all
of their dependencies.
Both handlers are called with a single argument, the link/append
context.
An new RNA sets of wrappers have been added to expose relevant info from
these internal C++ structures.
NOTE: !113658 is very similar (but tied to asset drag & drop), whereas
this PR is more general (these could probably live hand-in-hand / side-
by-side).
Implements #122357

-----------------
Some quick py example code:
```python
import bpy
def my_handler_pre(lapp_context):
print("About to {}:\n\t".format("link" if "LINK" in lapp_context.options else "append"),
"\n\t".join("{} '{}', from libs ['{}']".format(item.id_type, item.name,
"', '".join([l.filepath for l in item.source_libraries]))
for item in lapp_context.import_items))
def my_handler_post(lapp_context):
print("{}:\n\t".format("Linked" if "LINK" in lapp_context.options else "Appended"),
"\n\t".join("{} '{}', from lib '{}'".format(item.id.id_type, item.id.name, item.source_library.filepath)
for item in lapp_context.import_items))
bpy.app.handlers.link_append_pre.append(my_handler_pre)
bpy.app.handlers.link_append_post.append(my_handler_post)
```
This fixes two memory leaks:
* Drawings were not properly freed because `MEM_delete` was called on the DNA
base type which does not have the destructor.
* `CustomData` of layers was not freed before it was overridden.

This adds the layer adjustments back.
There is a the `Adjustment` panel under the layer properties with
the tint color, the tint factor, and the radius offset (now in meters).
The tint and radius offsets are stored as layer attributes.
For compatibility and the sake of not making the conversion code more complicated,
legacy layer adjustments are always converted to modifiers.

Since brush assets were merged, all sculpt and paint modes have a unified
"Brush" tool that is used for all brushes. Based on feedback, this mixes brush
types a bit too much, so some specific tools that use brushes should be brought
back. These brush types just behave very different from the main brush types,
and users expect them to be easily accessible from the toolbar. This also makes
them more discoverable and having tools that remember their last used brush can
be useful too (e.g. assigning shortcut to eraser tool to switch back to last
used eraser, rather than a specific eraser brush).
Note that further changes are planned, to get a true "best of both worlds"
design, where people can use a global brush library without having to worry
about tools, but brushes can also be accessed via tool categorization.
The new design works well with both mental models without being a compromise
in-between.
a79f9100a6 already brought back some tool for grease pencil draw mode, with this
commit the design is now applied to all sculpt & paint modes.
See PR for a list of tools that were brought back.

Refactor `ED_curve_updateAnimPaths()` and the static functions it calls,
separating out:
- the manipulation of the F-Curves themselves, and
- the manipulation of whatever container holds those F-Curves.
This will make it considerably easier to convert the code to deal with a
`Span<FCurve *>` later instead of `ListBase`, which in turn is necessary
to handle layered Actions.
The old code used to move F-Curves from one `ListBase` to another, to
avoid visiting the same F-Curve twice. This is now done by tracking
those F-Curves in a `Set<FCurve *>`, so that it doesn't require
manipulation of the storage itself.
No functional changes.
This does the following changes:
* Show info "warnings" in modifier too. Previously those were skipped. The
different behavior of info/warning/error messages causes confusion.
* Add a new `Warnings` panel that only shows when there are warnings. In its
title, it shows how many warnings there are.
* In the panel, warnings are sorted by severity and alphabetically.

Adds `BKE_grease_pencil_copy_layer_parameters` and
`BKE_grease_pencil_copy_layer_group_parameters` to copy
the parameters of layers and layer groups without copying
the data.
We'd first set the brush, then change tools, which would again set the
brush to what it was before (switching tools tries to remember its last
used brush). Instead, switch the brush after switching the tool.
Also added a brush API check to test if the brush is valid for the
current mode, so that we don't end up switching tools in that case. This
matches previous behavior where this would be checked as part of setting
the brush already, causing the function to early exit before the tool is
changed.
* Handle the case where `drawing_array_num` is 0.
* Reset the pointer of the active node (because it is no longer valid)
* Cleanup copy-paste error in docstring
The meshes custom data-mask edit-mode check only considered the object
in edit-mode if it was the active object. This isn't correct as multiple
objects can be in edit-mode at once.
The potential for `mesh_get_eval_deform` to leak memory remains,
this just avoids an unnecessary mesh re-generation on selection
(which was causing the leak), see: !128228 for details.
Fixes incorrect usage of StringRef in new grease pencil code, where
`.data()` was passed as a null terminated C string. Removes the now
unnecessary `std::string` creation that attribute accessors used to
fix that problem.

Remove the indirection previously used for the topology refiner
to separate C and C++ code. Instead retrieve the base level in
calling code and call opensubdiv API functions directly. This
avoids copying arrays of mesh indices and should reduce
function call overhead since index retrieval can now be inlined.
It also lets us remove a lot of boilerplate shim code.
The downside is increased need for WITH_OPENSUBDIV defines
in various parts of blenkernel, but I think that is required to avoid
the previous indirection and have the kernel deal with OpenSubdiv
more directly.

`BKE_animdata_fix_paths_remove()` now calls into the new function
`animrig::legacy::action_fcurves_remove()`, which works for both
legacy and slotted Actions.
Also I updated the documentation of the BKE function so that it's clear
what it's actually doing.
No functional changes for legacy Actions.
Ref: #123424
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/128252
Reduce cognitive complexity of `BKE_animdata_fix_paths_remove()` by
returning early, returning literals (instead of variables) when the
returned value is known, and just calling `BKE_animdata_from_id()` instead
of re-implementing it here.
No functional changes.
When assigning an Action with the new API:
- check the Actions ID type (if it is a legacy Action), and
- check whether the ID is in NLA tweak mode.
This means that action assignment can fail, so the
`animrig::assign_action()` and `animrig::unassign_action()` functions
now return a `[[nodiscard]] bool`.
Part of `generic_assign_action()` has now also been shielded with an
`#ifdef WITH_ANIM_BAKLAVA` just to be sure.
This also includes a change in `BKE_animdata_free()`. That function now
first exits NLA tweak mode (if enabled) before freeing the Actions. This
makes it possible to simply un-assign the assigned Action, as all the
NLA tweakmode stuff has already been taken care of by the responsible
function.

This patch improves working with grease pencil layers in geometry nodes.
* Allow layers to have duplicate names in geometry nodes. In original data, unique names are enforced.
* This allows e.g. duplicating layers and then merging them by name in the end.
* It also resolves a big serial bottleneck when working with many grease pencil layers in geometry nodes. Enforcing unique names is inefficient.
* New `Merge Layers` node that can merge multiple layers by name or by a custom group id.
* Applying a grease pencil modifier now first merges all layers with the same name to ensure all names are unique.

Customizable highlighting of editor edges that can be used to help
differentiate between areas, indicate active area, and/or help users
with visual impairment. Can be completely removed as well. This
replaces the active area header highlighting, which doesn't work for
transparent headers.

There were multiple issues that popped up when following the reproduction steps
in the report:
* Somehow, `socket.socket_data` was set for a custom socket type. I don't know
how that happened yet. I added some code to clean it up on file-load.
* `declaration_for_interface_socket` did not work yet when the socket type is
not registered. Now it just creates a custom socket with the correct idname,
even if that's not registered yet.
* There was a missing node tree update when changing `bl_socket_idname` of
interface sockets.

The material handling on curves was not super strong yet because there was not a
lot of need for it. However, now with Grease Pencil it's much more likely that
material selections are used on curves.
The patch is larger than one might expect at first, because we have to pass more
information into the field context in many places, because the materials are
stored on `Curves` and not `CurvesGeometry`.
Related to #128109.

The issue has been introduced in aca27e5462.
Before that change the memory used for baking was cleared-alloced,
but now it relies on the default object initialization. This could
leave fields uninitialized.

Previously we were using a bespoke hodgepodge of
`Action::is_action_legacy()` and `Action::is_action_layered()`,
sometimes in combination with checking for the Baklava feature flag,
when what we really meant is "Should this action be treated as legacy
or not?"
This commit changes the places where that's semantically what we meant
to use `action_treat_as_legacy()`. Some of those places were already
correct, using a compound conditional, but some of them weren't, and
thus were not always branching correctly. For those latter cases,
this commit is a bug fix.
Importantly, not all uses of bare `Action::is_action_legacy()` or
`Action::is_action_layered()` are semantically incorrect: there are many
places where that is the right thing to do. This commit takes care not
to touch those places.
