This adds support for X/Y/Z symmetry for all brushes in curves
sculpt mode. In theory this can be extended to support radial
symmetry, but that's not part of this patch.
It works by essentially applying a brush stroke multiple with
different transforms. This is similiar to how symmetry works in
mesh sculpt mode, but is quite different from how it worked in
the old hair system (there it tried to find matching hair strands
on both sides of the surface; if none was found, symmetry did
not work).

Contrary to `CompositorNodeCustomGroup` or `ShaderNodeCustomGroup`,
`GeometryNodeCustomGroups` have to define their own poll function.
This is because their is no predefined poll function for `GeometryNode`,
and it may not be clear for addon developers why `GeometryNode` would
be special here.
This adds `GeometryNode` to `bpy_types.py` and defines such a function
for it like for other builtin node types.

Now it's possible to use auto masking at 3 levels:
* Stroke
* Layer
* Material
The masking options can be combined and allows to limit the effect of the sculpt brush.

This allows object extras such as image-empties to be shown in the VR
viewport/headset display. Being able to see reference images in VR can
be useful for architectural walkthroughs and 3D modeling applications.
Since users may not want to see all object extras (lights, cameras,
etc.), per-object-type visibility settings are also added as session
options.
By slightly refactoring the definition of the 3D View object types
visibility panel (note: no functional changes), the VR Scene Inspection
add-on can show a similar panel without duplicating code. When VR
selection is possible in the future, the object type select options can
also be enabled.

Add the Discontinuity (Euler) Filter operator to the Dope Sheet->Key
menu, so it's not only available from the Graph Editor->Key menu. On
request of @pablico, see T95386.
This required changing a poll function which is used by a bunch of other
operators, which seemed scary at first, but my thinking is that if an
operator can execute in the Graph Editor, then it should also be able to
execute in the Dope Sheet. I think the only reason this wouldn't be true
is if we were storing animation data in the UI itself, which of course
we don't. So I hope this is okay.

When height is limited, it is defined by space occupied by strips,
but at least channels 1 to 7 will be always visible. This allows it to
easily overview timeline content by zooming out to maximum extent in Y
axis and panning in X axis.
More channels can be "created" on demand by moving strip to higher
channel. When strip is removed and highest channel becomes empty, view
will stay as is until it is moved down. Then new highest point is
remembered and it is not possible to pan upwards until strip is moved to
higher channel.
Limiting takes into account height of scrubbing and markers area as
well as scrollers. This means that when zoomed out to maximum extent,
no strips are obstructed by fixed UI element.

Geometry node group inputs and outputs get a new property that controls
the attribute name used for that field input/output when assigning the
node group to a modifier for the first time. If the default name is assigned
to an input, the default "Use attribute name" is true .
In order to properly detect when a node group is first assigned,
the modifier now clears its properties when clearing the node group.

The A hotkey has "auto iteration" enabled by default,

Add Bake Action to the NLA edit menu to aid discoverablity and allow
people to understand that Bake Action is part of working with the NLA.
Part of the NLA road map improvement project for the Animation Module.
This was a community request to add access to the Bake without needing
to turn on developer tools in the preferences and then use search in the
NLA for bake.
It seems this was always intended, as the operator is called `nla.bake`.

Currently the "exclude" option for autopep8 isn't as reliable as it
should be since passing in absolute paths to autopep8 causes
the paths not to match. See: D14686 for details.
So explicitly disable autopep8 in this generated file (the generator
has already been updated).
Also use spaces for indentation otherwise autopep8 re-indents them.
This seems like a bug in autopep8 since it's changing lines with
autopep8 disabled. Use a workaround instead of looking into a fix since
it's simpler for all our Python files to use spaces instead of tabs and
there isn't much benefit mixing indentation for scripts.
This adds support for rendering motion blur for volumes, using their
velocity field. This works for fluid simulations and imported VDB
volumes. For the latter, the name of the velocity field can be set per
volume object, with automatic detection of velocity fields that are
split into 3 scalar grids.
A new parameter is also added to scale velocity for more artistic control.
Like for Alembic and USD caches, a parameter to set the unit of time in
which the velocity vectors are expressed is also added. For Blender gas
simulations, the velocity unit should always be in seconds, so this is
only exposed for volume objects which may come from external OpenVDB
files.
These parameters are available under the `Render` panels for the fluid
domain and the volume object data properties respectively.

* Curves objects now support the geometry nodes modifier.
* It's possible to use the curves object with the Object Info node.

**Relevant to Artists:** This patch adds an option to the Parenting
menu, `Object (Keep Transform Without Inverse)`, and Apply menu, `Parent
Inverse`. The operators preserve the child's world transform without
using the parent inverse matrix. Effectively, we set the child's origin
to the parent. When the child has an identity local transform, then the
child is world-space aligned with its parent (scale excluded).
**Technical:** In both cases, the hidden parent inverse matrix is
generally set to identity (cleared or "not used") as long as the parent
has no shear. If the parent has shear, then this matrix will not be
entirely cleared. It will contain shear to counter the parent's shear.
This is required, otherwise the object's local matrix cannot be properly
decomposed into location, rotation and scale, and thus cannot preserve
the world transform.
If the child's world transform has shear, then its world transform is
not preserved. This is currently not supported for consistency in the
handling of shear during the other parenting ops: Parent (Keep
Transform), Clear [Parent] and Keep Transform. If it should work, then
another patch should add the support for all of them.
