Currently, internal I/O operators can be invoked with drag-n-drop path
data, and when this happens a quick popup menu is shown to customize
import settings.
If these operators support operator presets, using a preset can
override path data given by drag-n-drop, and that can be unwanted
behavior.
While this can be fixed by setting path properties to SKIP_SAVE, doing
this would make these properties also to stop using ghost values. These
ghost values are used by the file select window to open operator last
import directory, and using this flag makes the file select windows
always open the home directory.
To fix that, add an explicit flag PROP_SKIP_PRESET that skips properties
writing to presets. Also clarify that PROP_HIDDEN and PROP_SKIP_SAVE
also avoid writing to presets.
Added a operator that can clean operator's specific property presets.
Importing presets from previous versions runs an automatic cleanup.

In 4.1 we deprecate the `Rotate Euler` node in favor of the `Rotate Rotation`
node which uses the new rotation socket type. The node is not removed
(for now) because that would come with compatibility issues. More generally,
we'll likely run into the situation where nodes are deprecated more often in the
future, without actually removing them to keep compatibility. This patch improves
how such nodes are handled in the UI.
The patch does three things:
* Adds a new `Utilities > Deprecated` entry in the add node menu in geometry nodes.
* Moves search items which are deprecated to the bottom in the search results
(currently, this only works in English, can be fixed in bcon3).
* Adds a new `bNodeType->deprecation_notice` that will result in a deprecation
warning when the node is used.

4 changes in this PR:
1) Fixed bug with saving translations to py files - saving sources and comments it didn't add `repr` for the saved strings which was producing unexpected special characters.
Then these special characters sometimes made `translations.py` invalid (e.g., it was failing to load with some `\u` combinations) or was producing invalid characters in .po files created from the `translations.py`.
2) `find_best_messages_matches` used to fail when current message context wasn't found in the .po file. E.g. there were no messages with context "View3D", "Operator", ... and you would try to edit translation for the element that uses that context. I've added a fallback to empty sets to make sure it won't fail and just return the valid result that there are no matches.
3) added minor typing hint for easier code navigation.
4) added print to make it clear what data is printed.

This PR adds the "Separate" operator from GPv2.
Changes:
In GPv2 there were three modes: Selected Point, Selected Strokes and Active Layer. For better consistency with meshes Separate Operator, there are now three modes:
- Selected (point or strokes is determined by mode selection)
- By Layers (not only the active one)
- By Materials (new)
Also Multiframe selection is now supported.

Being able to change a remote repository to a local one or vice-versa
seems obscure enough to disable entirely although it can still be done
from the Python API.
Add icons to the UI-list to differentiate local/remote repositories.

Writing Style guide).
- "Bezier" -> "Bézier": proper spelling of the eponym.
- Tool keymaps: make "Uv" all caps.
- "FFMPEG" -> "FFmpeg" (official spelling)
- Use MULTIPLICATION SIGN U+00D7 instead of MULTIPLICATION X U+2715.

We had inherited Danish translation file in the repository from over a
decade ago, but it was never since then an active translation, and
therefore was never added back to the current list of known languages.
Since the file exists now and is exposed in Weblate
(translate.blender.org), language entry should be created in our
settings, such that e.g. PO files do get updated with all the others!
Replace: {BLENDER_RESOURCE_PATH_USER}/scripts/extensions
With: {BLENDER_RESOURCE_PATH_USER}/extensions
This makes more sense as not all extensions are scripts.
This adds a visual toggle for sculpt automasking in both regular and Grease Pencil modes.
If no automasking settings are used, use the icon `CLIPUV_DEHLT`, otherwise it is CLIPUV_HLT.

- Adding new repositories now differentiates between "Online" & "Local"
where adding a local repository doesn't prompt for a URL.
- Support removing repositories and their files (uses confirmation
defaulting to "Cancel" to avoid accidents).
- Show an error icon next to repositories that have invalid settings,
these repositories are now ignored until the settings are corrected,
required fields are highlighted red when they're unset & required.
- Rename "directory" to "custom_directory" since an automatic path is
used when not set - created in the users scripts directory.
- Use toggles for custom-directory & remote URL instead of relying on
the value to be left an empty string for alternative behavior.
Based on the design of #102585, This PR replaces the MOD_MASK icon with
the CLIP_UVDEHLT icon to better communicate the intent of masking across
many areas of Blender. It also changes the Grease Pencil `invert` icons
to avoid conflicts with the CLIPUV_DEHLT & CLIPUV_HLT.

This is meant as a replacement for the Rotate Euler node. Overall it
should be more performant, and the clarity given by the separate socket
type should help distinguish its purpose.
The Rotate Euler node is removed from search and the add menu by this
commit. In the future it can be versioned away. That isn't done now to
avoid a breaking API change and to make this commit less risky.

This implements the `stroke_arrange` operator for grease pencil v3.
This behaves the same as `GPENCIL_OT_stroke_arrange` but renamed to `stroke_reorder`.
It should be more clear what the operator does.
Note: This also adds new key binds.

Add-ons "bl_info" was supported for add-ons which weren't registered,
however the real modules weren't handled causing module_bl_info()
to return dummy values when an extensions add-ons module was passed in.
This caused the minimum Blender version check after enabling an add-on
to do nothing.
Now the "bl_info" from extension modules is ignored and the bl_info
is created on demand from the manifest.
- Add a warning when an extensions meta-data is missing.
- Remove the time-stamps from message that time-stamps have changes
since knowing the exact times isn't helpful.
Appending then removing a draw function caused the is_extended()
method to return true afterwards, resolve by checking if there are
multiple draw functions.
- Rename info to bl_info, to avoid confusion with extensions manifest,
which should eventually be accessible in a similar way.
- Rename module_name to addon_module_name to avoid confusion with
extension repositories name-spaced modules.
- Clarify naming for TOML manifest.
Adds vertex groups and basic operator support to the `GreasePencil` data
block.
Vertex groups in the `GreasePencil` ID are used as the source of truth
for vertex groups names and ordering in the UI. Individual drawings also
have vertex group lists, but they should not be modified directly by
users or the API. The main purpose of storing vertex group names in in a
drawing's `CurveGeometry` is to make it self-contained, so that vertex
weights can be associated with names without requiring the
`GreasePencil` parent data.
Vertex group operators are implemented generically for some ID types.
Grease Pencil needs its own handling in these operators. After
manipulating `vertex_group_names` the `validate_drawing_vertex_groups`
utility function should be called to ensure that drawings only contain a
true subset of the `GreasePencil` data block.
Operators for assigning/removing/selecting/deselecting vertices are also
implemented here. To avoid putting grease pencil logic into the generic
`object_deform.cc` file a number of utility functions have been added in
`BKE_grease_pencil_vgroup.hh`.

This is an optional parameter for int properties, which then show up as
enum properties.
Included fix: reset ID properties' enum items when the `items` parameter is `None`.
Example usage:
```python
import rna_prop_ui
# Add a regular int property.
rna_prop_ui.rna_idprop_ui_create(D.objects['Cube'], "test", default=123, min=-3, max=500)
# Change to an enum property with items (min/max are ignored).
rna_prop_ui.rna_idprop_ui_create(D.objects['Cube'], "test", default=0, min=-10, max=10, items=[("APPLES", "Apples", ""), ("ORANGES", "Oranges", "")])
# Switch back to regular int property.
rna_prop_ui.rna_idprop_ui_create(D.objects['Cube'], "test", default=1, min=0, max=10)
```

One error that occurs when packaging a multi-file addon into a ZIP is
zipping the contents of the addon, instead of the addon directory.
When installing the ZIP using addon_install, the files that should be
inside a directory instead get extracted into the top-level of the
script directory. There was also no user feedback about what went wrong.
Detect this case and fail with an error.

This pull request adds the ability for users to specify input samples
on a per brush basis. The existing field in the main `Paint` struct
forces all brushes of a particular tool type to use the same value.
A new field was added to the `Brush` struct to allow for this value
to be specified there instead, and a corresponding unified value in
`UnifiedPaintSettings` has been created to allow users to use the
same value across all brushes.

Part of changes proposed in #117285.
Unfortunately layout panels aren't supported in popovers, so this has
been worked around using a kludge that stores the expanded state as a
class member, toggled via "wm.context_toggle".
