This was caused by 3dfec1ff73
which introduce the new behavior. This was to fix workflows
using a lot of semi-transparent objects which made nagivation
difficult.
This patch first roll back to the previous behavior: The
unselectable object will affect depth-aware operators.
This patch introduces a new visibility property to remove
the influence of objects in all depth picking operations
and selection operations. However the object is still
selectable through non-drawing selection operators
(e.g. select by material) and through the outliner.
This is to adress the aforementionned navigation issues.

Collection side is trivial, Object one is a bit more intricate, as
its LightLinking data behave similar to AnimData of IDs, which requires
a custom liboverride `apply` callback.

* NodeTree space does not refcount the displayed nodegroup
* Collections used by light linking _do_ ID refcount (unlike default
expected behavior for Collection usages).
This is yet another fully virtual property (it does not exist as-is in
DNA, and requires both getter and setter) that does handle ID
refcounting of the affected materials. Now these require an explicit
definition of `PROP_ID_REFCOUNT`, as this flag cannot be defined
automatically by makesrna.
This commit works on two related issues:
1. It is too easy to forget to handle ID refcounting in custom RNA setters.
2. It is not possible to fully force RNA refcounting ON or OFF for some
properties.
Issue 1. has bit us several times recently (e.g. in animation or
compositor areas, see latest fixblender/blender!143577).
This commit addresses it by adding some debug-only checks around the
call to `PointerPropertyRNA::set()` in `RNA_property_pointer_set()`,
that validates that usercount of both previously and newly assigned IDs
matches expected (changes of) values.
While not ideal, this should make it way easier for developers to catch
that issue in the future.
The second issue was discovered while working on the first, leading to
e.g. questionable work-arounds like the `rna_DriverTarget_id_set`
setter, only defined to by-pass the automatically assigned
`PROP_ID_USERCOUNT` flag (and related automatic refcounting of the
default setter code).
It is addressed by adding an internal `PROP_INTERN_PTR_ID_REFCOUNT_FORCED`
flag, which keeps track of calls to
`RNA_def_property_flag`/`RNA_def_property_clear_flag` which explicitely
sets or clears the `PROP_ID_USERCOUNT` flag, and prevents automatic
setting of that flag in that case.

Remove the last uses of `BKE_boundbox_init_from_minmax` in
favor of the newer `bounds::corners`. Besides clearer naming
and better ergonomics, it's also inline-able which seems to be a
good thing for such a simple function.
In order to get the same behavior as before I changed the
C++ bounds function to give the same vertex order as the
older function.

- Make Curve::type the source of truth for the curve type,
instead of Curve::vfont, since it's possible for this to be
set to null from RNA which effectively changed it's type.
See #138730.
- Update objects to match the curve type on file read.
Without this, an object may link to a curve in another file which
can be replaced by a curve data-block of a different type.
Note that updating the object type was already being done
when reloading library data and setting object data,
just not on file load.

This implement the design detailed in #135935.
A new per object property called `Shadow Terminator Normal Offset` is
introduced to shift the shadowed position along the shading normal.
The amount of shift is defined in object space on the object datablock.
This amount is modulated by the facing ratio to the light. Faces
already facing the light will get no offset. This avoids most light
leaking artifacts.
In case of multiple shading normal, the normal used for the shift
is arbitrary. Note that this is the same behavior for other biases.
The magnitude of the bias is controlled by `Shadow Terminator Normal Offset`.
The amount of faces affected by the bias is controlled using
`Shadow Terminator Geometry Offset` just like cycles.
Tweaking the `Shadow Terminator Geometry Offset` allows to avoid too much
shadow distortion on surfaces with bump mapping.
Cycles properties are copied from the Cycles object datablock to the
blender datablock. This break the python API for Cycles.
The defaults are set to no bias because:
- There is no good default. The best value depends on the geometry.
- The best value might depend on real-time displacement.
- Any bias will introduce light leaking on surfaces that do not need it.
- There is an additional cost of enabling it, which is proportional
to the amount of pixels on screen using it.

When using vertex parenting, an option for using the parent object
final evaluated indices is exposed in the Object Properties: Relations
panel. This allows the calculation of the parent vertex position to
ignore the the CD_ORIGINDEX layer and instead use the final indices
that may have been altered by the node tree evaluation.
The indices that will be used for the vertex parenting are also exposed
to the UI in the same panel, allowing them to be altered after the
vertex parent has been created.
This applies to modifiers, constraints and shape keys.
Any driver on such data was not removed with it,
leaving invalid drivers on objects.
With this patch, the drivers are removed, but animation is left untouched.
This is because animation might be reused somewhere else and we don't
want to introduce potential side effects there.
This also adds unit tests for the fixed cases

Add `PointerRNA::reset()` and `PointerRNA::invalidate()` utils functions
(both simply reset the PointerRNA data to empty state).
Replace `RNA_POINTER_INVALIDATE` macro by `PointerRNA::invalidate()`.
Follow-up to !134393 and e55d478c64.
Move `Library.runtime` to be a pointer, move the related
`LibraryRuntime` struct to `BKE_library.hh`. Similar to e.g.
Mesh.runtime, that pointer is expected to always be valid, and is
allocated at readtime or when creating a new Library ID.
Related smaller changes:
* Write code now uses standard ID writing codepath for Library IDs too.
* Runtime pointer is reset to nullptr before writing.
* Looking up a library by its absolute path is now handled through a
dedicated utils, `search_filepath_abs`, instead of using
`BLI_findstring`.

The general idea is to store an array of (type, data) pointers of all
PointerRNA ancestors of the current one.
This will help solving cases in our code where the owner (or sometimes
even the owner of the owner) of a random PointerRNA needs to be
accessed. Current solution mainly relies on linear search from the owner
ID, which is sub-optimal at best, and may not even be possible in case a
same data is shared between different owners.
This lead to refactoring quite a bit of existing PointerRNA creation code.
At a high level (i.e. expected usages outside of RNA internals):
* Add `RNA_pointer_create_with_parent` and
`RNA_pointer_create_id_subdata` to create RNA pointers with
ancestors info.
* `RNA_id_pointer_create` and `RNA_main_pointer_create` remain
unchanged, as they should never have ancestors currently.
* Add `RNA_pointer_create_from_ancestor` to re-create a RNA pointer
from the nth ancestor of another PointerRNA.
* Add basic python API to access this new ancestors data.
* Update internal RNA/bpy code to handle ancestors generation in most
common generic cases.
- The most verbose change here is for collection code, as the owner of the
collection property is now passed around, to allow collection items to get
a valid ancestors chain.
Internally:
* `PointerRNA` now has an array of `AncestorPointerRNA` data to store
the ancestors.
* `PointerRNA` now has constructors that take care of setting its data for
most usual cases, including handling of the ancestor array data.
* Pointer type refining has been fully factorized into a small utils,
`rna_pointer_refine`, that is now used from all code doing that operation.
* `rna_pointer_inherit_refine` has been replaced by
`rna_pointer_create_with_ancestors` as the core function taking care of
creating pointers with valid ancestors info.
- Its usage outside of `rna_access` has been essentially reduced to custom
collection lookup callbacks.
Implements #122431.
--------------
Some notes:
* The goal of this commit is _not_ to fully cover all cases creating
PointerRNA that should also store the ancestors' chain info. It only
tackles the most generic code paths (in bpyrna and RNA itself mainly).
The remaining 'missing cases' can be tackle later, as needs be.
* Performances seem to be only marginally affected currently.
* Currently `AncestorPointerRNA` only stores PointerRNA-like data.
This will help `StructPathFunc` callbacks to more efficiently generate
an RNA paths when calling e.g. `RNA_path_from_ID_to_property`, but will
not be enough info to build these paths without these callbacks. And some
cases may still remain fuzzy. We'd have to add thinks like a `PropertyRNA`
pointer, and for RNA collection ones, an index and string identifier, to store
a complete unambiguous 'RNA path' info. This is probably not needed, nor
worth the extra processing and memory footprint, for now.

There is no (good) reason to use 'refine' internal code to create RNA
pointers of IDs, these always ignore any 'ID inheritance', since by
definition the 'owner ID' info of an ID PointerRNA is always that ID.
Similarily, do not call RNA pointers creation code with null data, this
will simply return `PointerRNA_NULL`, can as well return that directly.

Until the refactor of 255f031e3e, Negative Boolean Properties would

Existing code had several issues:
* The 'DNA bitset as RNA array' behavior was totally undocumented,
virtually impossible to discover, very confusing, and without any
checks that given parameters (like the array length) were valid.
* The DNA defaults handling was fully broken for 'negative' boolean
properties.
This commit:
* Factorizes all rna define code for boolean properties storing a `booleanbit`
value into a new static util (this revealed and fixed the 'negative defaults'
issue).
* Forbids calling `RNA_def_property_array` on a Boolean property with a
non-null `booleanbit` value.
* Introduces a new `RNA_def_property_boolean_bitset_array_sdna`,
strictly to define 'DNA bitsets as RNA array' properties.
* Adds several validation checks, in particular regarding the bitset
case: it takes into account the fact that bitshift operations on
negative numbers are typically
[arithmetic ones](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/operator_arithmetic),
which means that they preserve the sign of the value, and that the
left-most bit should never be used with signed integers for bitsets.
-------------------
The fix to DNA defaults handling on 'negative' properties revealed
several RNA errors, listed below. Fixing them is not necessarily trivial
(as some seem to contradict the DNA default values, e.g. the
`View3DShading.use_studiolight_view_rotation` one), so it is kept
outside of this refactor. Conflicting cases should likely be handled by
the relevant modules (to decide whether the DNA, or the RNA default
should be kept).
-------------------
Also realized that many DNA types are ignored when trying to find DNA
default values. This will also be tackled separately, as fixing it is
fairly straightforward.

GPv3 stores the vertex group inside `CurvesGeometry`.
When the object level vertex group name is changed, we have to loop over
the vertex group list of each drawing. If a matching name is

function is created to handle this: `BKE_grease_pencil_vgroup_name_update`.

Enums that are displayed as icon-only should have their icons defined
in RNA, not just through the layout in Python. That way they are shown
in the dropdown itself and users make the connection between the listed
item label and the icon while collapsed.
Previously, values for `ID.flag` and `ID.tag` used the prefixes `LIB_` and
`LIB_TAG` respectively. This was somewhat confusing because it's not really
related to libraries in general. This patch changes the prefix to `ID_FLAG_` and
`ID_TAG_`. This makes it more obvious what they correspond to, simplifying code.

This removes the legacy Grease Pencil modifiers from the code.
These should have already been inaccessible from the UI and hidden from
the user. The modifiers have been reimplemented for the new GPv3
data structure.
On top of the modifier code, some other related things have been
removed as well:
* Operators related to the legacy modifiers.
* Keymaps for the legacy modifier operators.
* Some bits of code that used modifier functions.
Some code has to be kept, because it is still used:
* The core line art code, which is used by the new line art modifier. It's
moved to `modifiers/lineart`.
* The DNA structs for the legacy modifiers. They are still needed for
conversion.
* A few kernel functions for the modifiers are kept (also for conversion).

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.

There were multiple reports with objects having many empty material
slots.
The underlying reason for this is the behavior of adding/assigning
materials [which makes room in the form of empty material slots based on
the current `active_material_index` -- which atm. can be set to
arbitrary values]. So just e.g. setting this to 100 in a fresh file and
assigning a material would create 99 empty slots.
To resolve, now clamp to the existing number of material slots.
NOTE: there is already a range function defined, but this actually only
kicks in from the animation system (so clamping would take place there),
so clamping is expected to happen in the set functions (there is also a
related comment in `RNA_property_int_set`)

Move the public functions from the editors/object (`ED_object.hh`)
header to the `blender::ed::object` namespace, and move all of the

redundancy and verbosity from local uses of public functions, and more
cleanly separates different modules.
