This commit adds support for new curve tool and adds more functionalities to the existing primitives, including new handles, editing, stroke thickness curve, noise, preview of the real stroke, etc.
Thanks to @charlie for his great contribution to this improvement.
- Key-map items properties now override tool-options
so modifier keys can have different behavior to the default action.
- Box & circle select now have `wait_for_input` properties
instead of detecting this based on selection options being set or not.
This relied on the key-map setting properties which may need to be
initialize from the tool settings.
This adds an elliptical arc primitive.
Press CKEY for toggling closed/open arc.
Press FKEY key for flipping arc.
Additional changes to gpencil primitives.
Increases default edges of circle to 64.
Keymap changes to allow primitives to be drawn with Shift or Alt key.
Allow Plus/Minus key to adjust number of edges.
Missing: Toolbar icon

Presets were not updated when parameter were changed in rBe3d31b8dfbdc.
Note that will also check on generating more resistent py code for that
kind of presets, since that will also affect any custom preset made by
users...
Ensure we use lists for keymap items and item properties.
This means scripts can access keymap definitions from other layouts,
manipulating them without sometimes encountering a tuple that needs
to be converted into a list.
Some space types are exposed as multiple space types,
previously the key binding to set the space type would use the last
used space-type.
Now pressing the key again cycles to the next space sub-type.
Without this, shortcut display is confusing since some space types share
a key. Keymap display will need to be updated to support this.
A few reasons motivating this change:
* It works well for all devices: mouse, trackpad, and tablet pens.
* For beginners or users coming from other software, it's easier to get
started and avoids an initial stumbling block.
* Many users in 2.7 (about half?) were already using left click select, so
combined with the above advantages it makes for a practical default.
Note that we continue to support right click select, as many experienced
Blender users (and developers) see efficiency advantages in this approach.
The option to switch is in the first time setup splash screen, and in the
user preferences.
This has been a contentious topic: Artists at the Blender-Studio prefer
this behavior, while the user community overwhelmingly prefers 2.7x
operator search. Previously this defaulted to accessing tools
(eg: Space-T activates transform.. Space-R rotate etc) which I still
believe is a better long term default - otherwise we don't have
efficient tool switching for a system we intend to make more use of,
nevertheless as far as I can tell users haven't been keen on adopting
this so far. Show the preference on the setup screen since many users
don't animate and will may want to quickly search or switch tools.
Not sharing caused duplication in the keymap and
required a factory class generator.
Simplify tool & keymap definitions by sharing them.
It's highly unlikely we will ever want these to use different keys
once they're set as the active tool.
For users that want the 2.7 LMB keymap behavior, this provides a way of
working without tools interfering. For RMB select this operator is quite
redundant with the Cursor tool, we may have to find a solution for that.
Note that we also might later add transform tweak to the transform tools,
when nothing is selected. But this is important for existing users who
preferred the existing workflow.
Implements the first changes for T54115:
* Rename "User Preferences" window to "Settings" in the UI.
We'll likely put workspace settings in there, separate from the global
user settings. System settings should become separate from user
settings in future to allow settings for specific hardware.
* Add sidebar region for navigation (scrolls independently).
Addresses space problems, so we can add more categories as needed now.
* Increase size of Settings window to compensate new navigation bar.
* Group sections into User Preferences and System.
Icons for section groups by Andrzej Ambroz. Thanks!
* Bumps subversion for file compatibility.

I also added categories for future work, but commented them out.
We may also want to redesign contents of each section now.
