While this is still very fuzzy in current code, this old behavior makes
it close to impossible to efficiently use out-of-main temp data, as it
implies that we'd need to update refcounts everytime we add something
back into BMain (an 'un-refcount' ID usages when removing from BMain).
Now that we have two separate flags/tags for those two different things,
let's not merge them anymore.
Note that this is somewhat on-going process, still needs more checks and
cleanup. Related to T88555.
While this function should (currently) not be called on linked ID, there
is no reason to treat those differently than local IDs, for the part
that they have in common: needs to be properly sorted.
`id_sort_by_name` would simply not deal properly with linked IDs, could
lead to mixing IDs from different libraries, and unsorted IDs within the
same library.
Copying an ID outside of BMain should not assume that the datablocks it
uses are now directly linked. This would be wrong e.g. in case that new
no-main ID is copied from a linked data-block and is supposed to remain
a linked data.
Resolve ownership ambiguity with shared physics pointers.
Previously, LIB_ID_CREATE_NO_MAIN allowed pointer sharing with
the source ID so physics caches can be shared between original and
evaluated data: (Object.soft.shared & Object.rigidbody_object.shared).
This only worked properly for LIB_TAG_COPIED_ON_WRITE ID's,
as LIB_TAG_NO_MAIN can be used in situations where the original ID's
lifetime limited by it's original data.
This commit adds `LIB_ID_COPY_SET_COPIED_ON_WRITE` so ID's only share
memory with original data for ID's evaluated in the depsgraph.
For all other uses, a full copy of physics data is made.

Relying on only no-main for that was weak, and inn the end it turns out
we sometimes also need to ifnore override data during copy of Main
data-blocks.
NOTE: The new `LIB_ID_COPY_NO_LIB_OVERRIDE` is also added to the
`LIB_ID_COPY_LOCALIZE` set of flags.
NOTE: The fact that we may now copy liboverrides in some non-main cases
may cause issues in some cases, pretty impossible to track all possible
ones from reading the code... Would not expect too many problem though,
usages of `LIB_ID_CREATE_NO_MAIN` by itself are not so common.
This adds support for creating a `BlendFile` (internally called `Main`),
which is limited to a context.
Temporary data can now be created which can then use
`.libraries.load()` the same as with `bpy.data`.
To prevent errors caused by mixing the temporary ID's with data in
`bpy.data` they are tagged as temporary so they can't be assigned
to properties, however they can be passed as arguments to functions.

The `MAX_LIBARRAY` define was an annoying doublon to the `INDEX_ID_MAX` enum value
now defined in `DNA_ID.h`, and it is no more useful.
And comments were somewhat outdated. Also added an explanation about
chosen order for the `INDEX_ID_<IDTYPE>` order.
`bmain.relations` is used to store temp data of relations between IDs,
to speed-up some complex processes heavily relying on such information.
Previous implementation was failry unclear/confusing, and required a
not-so-nice hack to 'tag' some ID as processed.
New code changes as such:
* Using `from`/`to` naming (instead of `user`/`used`).
* More clear separation between `to` `id_pointer` and `from` one,
using an union instead of hacking around difference between `ID *` and
`ID **` pointers.
* Adds storage of `session_uuid` informations (mainly useful as
debug/ensuring proper consistency of data currently).
* Adds a structure per ID in the mapping. This enables possibility of
storing tags (and potentially more data in the future) per-ID,
without polluting the IDs themselves with very short-life info.

Currently this is needed to properly tag PointCache's for info update
(fixes an issue reported in T82503).
Suspect we may need this in more cases in the future though, RNA
assign/update processes are not always 100% enough to deal with
complicated corner cases.
Our beloved shapekeys are 'virtual' overrides, they need special
snowflake treatment here as well.
They do not have any override data, from override perspective they are
considered as mere sub-data from their owning ID (mesh, lattice, etc.).
Therefore, we should not copy override data from them, but instead
properly flag those new IDs as `LIB_EMBEDDED_DATA_LIB_OVERRIDE`.
Found while investigating T84373.
Previous code would not generate a session uuid for embedded IDs (like
root node trees or master collections). While this is not a problem
currently since those are not directly stored in Main data-base, this is
conceptually wrong, since those IDs still pertain the Main data.
Further more, this is blocking using `session_uuid` more in depsgraph in
place from ID pointer itself, as identifier (related to T84397).
This makes it possible to turn data-blocks into assets and back into normal
data-blocks. A core design decision made for the asset system is that not every
data-block should be an asset, because not every data-block is made for reuse.
Users have to explicitly mark data-blocks as assets.
Exposes "Mark Asset" and "Clear Asset" in Outliner context menus (currently ID
Data submenu) and button context menus. We are still not too happy with the
names, they may change.
This uses the new context members to pass data-blocks to operators, added in
af008f5532 and 0c1d476923.

Asset metadata is what turns a regular data-block into an asset. It is a small
data-structure, but a key part of the technical design of the asset system.
The design foresees that asset data-blocks store an `ID.asset_data` pointer of
type `AssetMetaData`. This data **must not** have dependencies on other
data-blocks or data-block data, it must be an independent unit. That way we can
read asset-metadata from .blends without reading anything else from the file.
The Asset Browser will use this metadata (together with the data-block name,
preview and file path) to represent assets in the file list.
Includes:
* New `ID.asset_data` for asset metadata.
* Asset tags, description and custom properties.
* BKE code to manage asset meta-data and asset tags.
* Code to read asset data from files, without reading IDs.
* RNA for asset metadata (including tags)

Remove DNA headers, using forward declarations where possible.
Also removed duplicate header, header including it's self
and unnecessary inclusion of libc system headers from BKE header.
This is essentially adding that new callback, and using it only for already
existing Scene's 3DCursor.
Note that the place where this is called has been moved again, after all
have been lib-linked, such that those callbacks may also work on ID pointers.

Part of T71219.
Besides the NodeTree case (which remains unchanged), the localize code
is only used in one place (to generate previews of shading data-blocks).
This commit introduces a new `LIB_ID_CREATE_LOCAL` option for ID
creation/copying, which essentially implements the behavior of the
removed `BKE_XXX_localize()` functions into regular mainstream ID copy
code. When this option is set:
- new ID is tagged with `LIB_TAG_LOCALIZED`;
- Some ID copying callbacks have specific behaviors, mainly the root
nodetree of shading IDs gets duplicated with specialized
`ntreeLocalize()` function.
Note that I would not consider getting rid of `ntreeLocalize` for now,
this function is recursive, which should ideally never happen within ID
management copying code (this introduces all kind of complications).
No behavioral change expected from this commit.
We have our own assert implementation, `BLI_assert()` that is prefered over the
C standard library one. Its output is more consistent across compilers and
makes termination on assert failure optional (through `WITH_ASSERT_ABORT`).
In many places we'd include the C library header without ever accessing it.
Problem is again with the embedded data, we want to make those local
together with their owner ID, but sometimes we are actually dealing with
copies here, which are inheritently already local.
Code did not considered that possibility before, leading to access to a
NULL `lib` pointer.
This should also be back-ported to 2.83 LTS release.

Regression from d6cefef98f
This also fixes an unreported issue where finding an exact match
wasn't being detected for items that contained an ID prefix.
Note that this behavior is enforced on user level for now, but on code
side it is controlled with a flag, which should make it easy to refine
that behavior if needed.
Only exception is when we duplicate a linked ID directly (then we assume
user wants a local deep-copy of that linked data, and we always also
duplicate linked sub-data-blocks).
Note that this commit also slightly refactor the handling of actions of
animdata, by simplifying `BKE_animdata_copy_id_action()` and adding an
explicit new `BKE_animdata_duplicate_id_action()` to be used during ID
duplication (deep copy).
This also allows us to get rid of the special case for liboverrides.
Rather than a `L` (linked), `O` (overridden) or `M` (missing) prefix for the
name, show the existing library status icons. See D7999 for screenshots.
Note that when using preview icons, or if the search menu contains items with
own icons (e.g. brush icons), we still fallback to the prefix solution.
Zero or fake user is still indicated with a prefix.

Now that we have a uniform consistent behavior in all our ID duplicate
funtions, we can easily factorize it greatly. Code gets cleaner,
smaller, and less error-prone.
Note that ultimately, this duplicate/deep copy behavior could be added
as a callback of IDTypeInfo.
We could also rethink the duplicate flags (some data, even some obdata,
like Lattice, are not coverred currently).
And so on. But at least code should now be much more easily maintainable
and extendable.
This is actually a nice issue due to too much optimization...
* Making an ID local just reuse the linked one whenever possible, instead of
actually making a copy of it.
* Therefore, the collection containing that ID is seen as unchanged, since
the pointer itself remained the same.
* But on undo step, there is no way to reuse that local object, which then
gets deleted, and linked one gets re-created - at a different address.
* Collection, however, since unchanged, is not updated at all and thus keeps
reference to the to-be-deleted local object, instead of the linked one.
* Issue gets even worse with viewlayers, this leads to the crash.
To address this, this patch adds a 'virtual' update flags that does nothing
in update case, but will ensure that the affected IDs using the one made local
are properly detected as changed across the relevant undo step.
Note that the recalc flags were chosen mostly for a logical reason, and also
because they are already properly dealt with and cleared by undo code,
so this looks like the optimal solution.

This commit enables basic copy of overrides on generic ID level, as well
as from (deep) copy operators for objects and collections.
So e.g. if your linked overridden caracter is in a collection, you can
now (from the outliner) Duplicate that override collection to get a new
overriding copy of the character.
We still need operators (new or modifying existing ones) to handle that
from 3DView e.g.
Note that deep copy code for objects/collections (and incidently
animdata) had to be modified to avoid duplicating/making local IDs that
remain linked ones being used by overrides ones.
