Face Orientation Front Color has been changed to transparent for the
default theme (8bcb714b9e). This PR makes the Blender Light theme for
the face orientation front match the default theme alpha.

Add 12, 8, and 6 FPS presets often used in stylized animation,
especially in 2D/Grease Pencil animation.
12 FPS to animate on 2's, 8 FPS on 3's, 6 FPS on 4's or for
early blocking stages or storyboard.

The poll functions for: VIEW3D_OT_edit_mesh_* operators only checked
for an edit-mode object which failed with an unhandled exception for
non-mesh objects.
Add 'Smoothing Groups' option for exporting polygon smoothing groups.
Generates 'bitflags' smoothgroups values, ensuring no faces from different
groups sharing a same boundary edge or vertex have the same bitflag value.
NOTE: This type of smoothgroups will run out of group values (aka bitflags) with
some specific topologies, e.g. a fan of over 31 flat faces sharing a same vertex
(like the sides of a cone). In such cases, once all available values have been used,
the remaining faces will get `0` (aka 'no group') value assigned.

Part of #134755 / #134766.
The asset browser currently lacks a compact view that leaves names
readable. Especially when managing asset libraries (e.g. to prepare it
for sharing or set up a production library), this is quite a usability
issue. A column view like the file browser has can solve this, allowing
a quick overview and fast browsing of libraries, while keeping names
readable.
Adds a new "Horizontal List" display mode to the asset browser that
distributes assets over multiple columns, with horizontal scrolling.
Asset previews are shown in this mode, plus an asset type icon if
there's enough space. The size of previews and the columns can be
configured next to the display mode, for optimizing the display.

Implement shortcuts for viewer nodes. Viewer nodes are now activated using the operator `bpy.ops.node.activate_viewer()` instead of activating the viewer by setting the node to active.
This also unifies the behavior with viewer shortcuts in the compositor (see attachment in the original PR).

Fix a few small mistakes in the action baking code:
- Assigning an action slot should only happen after the action itself has
been assigned.
- `_ensure_channelbag_exists()` didn't actually ensure the channelbag
always exists; now it also creates the layer & strip if necessary.

This patch adds the ability to snap to the frame range bounds in the VSE
timeline, on by default. End frame snap location is offset by 1 to
ensure the snap point aligns with the visible end frame boundary
(otherwise e.g. right handle of strip would be one frame short).
Timeline and preview snapping is also turned on by default using the
same versioning block.

This PR enabled GPU based subdivision on Metal.
Most work is done in #135296.
- Metal max storage bindings for compute shaders were never set.
Some performance figures: Suzanne 6 subdivision levels
| Machine | CPU Subdivision | GPU Subdivision |
| --------------- | --------------- | --------------- |
| M1 Studio Ultra | 7fps | 12 fps |
| M2 Air | 3fps | 11 fps |

This PR enabled GPU subdivision on Vulkan backend. Measured
performance is slower compared to CPU on my system. But it is
expected that other bottlenecks should be solved in order to
fully benefit from this feature.
We enable it so we keep track of the performance bottlenecks.

draw_attribute_warnings() called in every attribute panel code.
Following function iterates through entire attribute list
mesh.attributes along with vgroup list to identify the colliding name.
This results in printing collision names in irrelavant panels. Now fixed
by passing relevant attributes to compare in `draw_attribute_warnings`.
First find colliding names, add them to the list if they exists in current attribute list
passed to the function

Some wheels don't use "Purelib", meaning the directory layout of the
wheel needs to be manipulated on installation.
Add partial support for Python's "Binary distribution format" when
Purelib is false, since paths such as `includes` & `scripts` are not
remapped into user accessible locations - they will remain in the
wheels "*.data" directory, these could be supported if it's needed
although it seems like a fairly niche use case.
Ref !135709
The underlying issue was that the code was trying to directly assign a Python
dictionary to an add-on defined Group Property accessed via `[]` syntax, like
this:
```
to_bone['rigify_parameters'] = param_dict
```
That only works if 'rigify_parameters' does *not* already exist according to the
`[]` lookup, so this was failing whenever it already did.
This PR fixes that by simply deleting the property first when it already exists.

As a small addition to the import node features for 4.5,
this simple node imports a text file as a string. Potential
use cases include retrieving text for motion graphics.
Currently this just allows .txt files. More extensions could
be allowed in the future.

When baking custom properties that were named exactly the same
as a property already in Blender (in this case `scale`), it would fail.
The issue was introduced with eee32726c7 where the goal was
to not key addon defined properties.
The problem with that approach was that `obj.bpy_rna.properties`
not only contains addon defined properties but also all that are native to Blender.
So the rna path would be created to be identical as for e.g. transform properties.
The fix is to test the property for `is_runtime` which is true for addon
defined properties but false for blender internal properties
I tested with the test file of #121349 to confirm that doing so
doesn't bring that original bug back.

When accessing the key-map for tooltips it's important to use
the final "user" keymap, combine from "active" & "default".
Using the active keyconfig would only keys from key-maps that had
been modified.
This commit adds the `sculpt.mask_by_color` operator to the 'Mask' menu item in Sculpt Mode. This
allows users to access it via operator / property search. Additionally, the Redo panel is exposed
for general usage.

Add this operator to the dropdown menu to the right of the attribute list
for curves and point cloud geometries. For these geometry types the
operator can run in edit mode too, unlike meshes.
This commits fixes a type error issue when reporting that a addon was
designed for a version of Blender newer than the current one.
Thanks to @Rakete for the fix.
Ref: !135392
Added entries for operators missing in the Curves edit mode context and
topbar menus as mentioned in #105253.
Ordered menu entries based on legacy and mesh menus but it's not
identical as the operator set is reduced. Prioritized keeping group
classification consistent between the menus when deriving the layout.

Adds the option to create a boolean socket that can be used as a panel toggle.
This allows creating simpler and more compact node group UIs when a panel
can be "disabled".
The toggle input is a normal input socket that is just drawn a bit differently in
the UI. Whether a boolean is a toggle input or not does not affect evaluation.
Also see #133936 for guides on how to add and remove panel toggles.
