The extensions UI was aligning all buttons then adding a separator.
Simplify the layout by removing align which removes the need for an
explicit separator.
It was too easy to click on Install by mistake, while trying to click on
the "⌄" menu. This is particulary problematic since we enable add-ons by
default.

Add utility class to check extension visibility to remove
incomplete logic that was duplicated into operator code.
Also minor refactoring to reduce the number of arguments passed
to internal function.s
Disambiguate
- "Thickness": use "Material" for EEVEE's thickness material setting.
- "Generated": use "Texture" for texture coordinates, "Image" for
image source, keep default context for animation keyframe types.
Translate
- Split "Online access required to (check for|install) updates..."
into 2x2 messages individually translatable.
- "Geometry" input in bake node.
- "New" for the Palette ID: extract it as part of the
BLT_I18N_MSGID_MULTI_CTXT for "New".

This changes the sorting for the installed extensions.
- Update.
- Enable.
- A-Z.
Don't use A-Z for "Available" extensions to prevent name manipulation
to bring an extension up on the ranks.
Match the design of !123728, rewritten to support sorting across
multiple repositories and update tags which weren't handled in the PR.
Details:
- Remove the "Filter" popover & the option "Updates Available"
since updates are now shown first.
- Add an iterator to for visible extensions to de-duplicate logic which
was copied for code that scanned for tags.
- Split out logic for drawing an extension into it's own function.
- Tags are now calculated based on visible extensions limited by search.
Provide a convenient way to access a writable directory for extensions.
This will typically be accessed via:
bpy.utils.extension_path_user(__package__, create=True)
This API is provided as some extensions on extensions.blender.org
are writing into the extensions own directory which is error prone:
- The extensions own directory is removed when upgrading.
- Users may not have write access to the extensions directory,
especially with "System" repositories which may be on shared network
drives for example.
These directories are only removed when:
- Uninstalling the extension.
- Removing the repository and its files.
Functionality from [0] to skip-saving remote repositories was only
applied when dropping extensions. Now this is done when installing
from the file selector too.

Override the website in the manifest with the website from the remote
repository data if it's available.
While this can be made to work it requires some awkward logic since it's
assumed an extensions meta-data is provided by the manifest with is
not the case when we start overriding it with values from elsewhere.
Resolves#123706.
Each section (if not empty) now shows a panel header.
Now there is no need to include "installed/disabled" text next to each
extension. This also removes the need for most of the filtering options.
See design task #123660.
Many operator buttons in Node Wrangler used custom texts defined
elsewhere, but the translation context in this case is "Operator". It
should be using "Default" instead.
Attribute nodes in the shader editor should never be translated
because their name is user data.
Some button labels were switched to title case.
"Dodge" and "Burn" were renamed to "Color Dodge" and "Color Burn"
respectively, to match the item name from the actual node.
The "Frame Selected" operator now uses Node translation context, to
distinguish from the other operator of the same name which means
"Place selected in view".

Operator reports that use string formatting need explicit rpt_() tags,
otherwise translation occurs after formatting and the string is not
found in the translation files.
- Reuse menus' bl_label in UI code when identical.
- Switch labels to title case.
- Switch descriptions to sentence case.
- Do not end sentences with "." in reports.
- Replace "Can't" with "Cannot" and "Don't" with "Do Not".
Scanning local repositories was printing an error when the local
directory of other repositories didn't exist.
Caused by the logic that ensures wheel's are updated which needs to
check meta-data for all repositories after an update.
Resolve by optionally skipping errors for missing directories.
