This replaces the Move/Link to Collection operator popup with a menu,
allowing this to be able to search collection to move and to expand
this menu from other menus.
This removes the expected memory leak of using the popup.
Move to Collection operator now uses `session_uid` to identify
target collection, this now allows to target a collection from another
scene, however, is not exposed throw UI)

Geometry Nodes' Add > Input > Import menu includes file format items
such as "Standford PLY (.ply)", "STL (.stl)", "Text (.txt)". The
latter needs to be translated because "Text" is a generic format.
These items are declared using a custom function
`node_add_menu.add_node_type`, with a `label` argument. This commit
adds the `label` argument to the function arguments that can be
extracted from specific node declaration functions, and specifies the
argument position for each:
"add_node_type", "add_node_type_with_outputs", "add_simulation_zone",
"add_repeat_zone", "add_foreach_geometry_element_zone",
"add_closure_zone".
There is currently no facility to specify a translation context but it
could be easily added if the need arises.
Most of these functions do not actually declare new, unique messages,
but it could happen in the future. In addition, two messages were
extracted using manual `iface_()` calls, which are no longer needed
after this change.
Reported by Ye Gui in #43295.
This commit introduces the `radial_symmetry` property on the `Mesh`
datablock and simultaneously removes the `radial_symm` property in
Sculpt, Vertex Paint, and Weight Paint.
This allows users to have these symmetry values defined on a per-object
basis instead of needing to reconfigure it for each mesh.
Current values stored on the `ToolSettings` on a per-scene basis are not
copied to each mesh in a scene. This is done to avoid introducing
potentially inaccurate data to a large number of meshes at the cost of
some minor backwards incompatibility.

"Volume Min" can mean:
- The volume of a bone when modified by a constraint.
- The audio volume of a speaker object.
Reported by Alexandr Fatih in #43295.
"Mirror" can mean:
- To symmetrize something (i.e. generate a new mirrored copy of it or
edit it in a symmetric fashion).
- To flip something (i.e. invert its values along X, Y or Z axes).
- To repeat a texture in a mirrored fashion outside its bounds.

Replace use of bpy.ops.wm.append with the Python equivalent.
This avoids a separate append call for every group.
Also refactor lookups so node-group names only need to be declared once,
then used to populate a named-tuple.
The default nodes were still present in the node tree when Setup
Tracking Scene operator was called.
The issue was that the operator assumed the default tree always has the
same number and types of nodes, which wasn't true anymore after the
default node tree was changed in df6e65dd93
This PR keeps the changes to a minimum by updating the assumption
about the default node tree.

This PR makes it easier to add keyframes for strips in preview.
This works same way as in 3D viewport, using keying sets. Pressing I
key adds keyframe to default keying set, pressing K dhows menu with
available keying sets. For VSE, location, rotation and scale properties
are available for now. Other existing keying sets are not valid for
VSE.
Deleting keyframes and potentially adding more keying sets will be
handled in separate PR.

This patch removes the Texture node from the compositor, which was based
on the legacy Internal Textures system in Blender. The main motivation
for removing this node is as follows:
- Procedural texturing nodes that previously existed in shading and
geometry nodes are now supported in the compositor, which cover 95% of
what is previously possible using and even adds new possibilities like
Gabor, Bricks, and various improvements to existing texture types.
- The old texture system did not support GPU evaluation, so it was
always computed and cached on the CPU, which causes bad performance
especially for interactive use in the viewport compositor. While the
new nodes are fully GPU accelerated and do not require any caching.
- The Texture node didn't support Texture nodes, so it was not fully
supported and we so far had a warning about that.
- The general direction in Blender is to remove the old texture system,
and the compositor was one of the last main users of it. 5.0 is thus
the ideal time to remove such use.
- The Texture node was always and still is a source of bugs, since it
relies on proper tagging for cache invalidation and updates, which is
so far not perfect. It also suffers from UI/UX issues, since it needs
to be adjusted from the properties panel, which can break if there are
other texture nodes in the context.
This is a breaking change and no versioning was attempted since:
1. It is impossible to get the same results as before due to the use of
different random number generators, so any versioning would just give us
the general look.
2. The Texture node supports a lot of possible configurations. For
instance, each general texture can have many options for the basis type,
and each basis type might have multiple options. So versioning all of
that will take a lot of time, code, and effort.

This change enables HDR support for wayland as an experimental feature.
It supports both non-linear extended sRGB and un-clamped sRGB.
Windows isn't supported as the HDR settings are not accessible via an
API and would require similar settings that games use to configure the
monitor. Adding those sliders isn't what we would like to add.
Vulkan (working group) is working on new extensions that might change
the shortcomings. It isn't clear yet what the extension will do and what
the impact is for applications that want to use it. When the extension
is out we should review at the situation again.

Historically, the `UnifiedPaintSettings` struct has been used to
provide users the ability to set brush values at a scene level. Examples
of such attributes are the brush size, strength, and color, to name a
few.
Instead of these values being shared across all of the grease pencil,
mesh painting, and curves sculpting modes. This commit migrates the
data to the `Paint` struct, meaning that each individual mode (e.g.
Sculpt, Vertex Paint, Grease Pencil Draw) now has the ability to change
these values without affecting other modes.
While this change is large, the majority of the work is simply
refactoring access to the `UnifiedPaintSetting` struct. to ensure the
correct property is being retrieved.

Recently, panel styling was moved to a global setting instead of being
per-editor. However, the panel's title and labels inside still rely on
the per-editor region's text and title settings.
Move panel title and text colors to the global "Panel" settings.

Remove the use_attribute_storage_write experimental option and always
write in the new format, which is supported by 4.5. The new format is
only used at runtime by point clouds currently but there is no reason
for it to be an option at this point.
This is a second commit repeating 84212bae4b
after that was reverted. Issues that came up with Grease Pencil writing
have been resolved in the meantime.
This patch removes the Dot output from the Normal node. This previously
computed negative the dot product of the normalized inputs. We are
removing it because we now have a Vector Math node that can compute the
dot product, and because it output is confusing, considering it computes
the negative of the product and it implicitly normalized the input.
The node was moved to the input category, and might be later extended to
allow normal picking from the scene or normal passes.
Fixed#132770.

Add a footer region which contains essentially the playback and frame
range buttons from the Timeline Editor, to the following editors:
- Dope Sheet
- Graph
- NLA
- Sequencer
Available in the View menu in each editor, hidden by default.
The motivation is to provide a convenient way to access these
often used controls, and in the near future adjust these footers
to add more playback functionality related to each editor.

The grid layout type for UI list is planned for removal in 5.0, see
blender/blender#110461.
In previous UI meetings, we talked about deprecating the Grid mode of
the UI list, which is not actually accessible in UI and was never used.
Nowadays, there is a new grid view that can be exposed in the API in
the future.
Initially, I wanted to remove references to layout_type in UI templates
in the text editor, because a lot of add-on developers on the
extensions platform base their lists on that code, and a lot of them
are therefore including soon to be deprecated code in their add-ons,
which I want to avoid in the future. But I thought we might as well
remove it from our python scripts as well, since it's just basically
redundant code that doesn't do anything. And also because many add-on
developers use bundled python scripts for references as well.

Currently we have two entries in the Select menu:
- Box Select
- Box Select (Include Handles)
But since b037ba2665, Include Handles is the default, so both entries
behave exactly the same.
To resolve, make it:
- Box Select (Include Handles)
- Box Select
with the second one setting the "include_handles" option to False.
NOTE: behavior of "include_handles" option False might be a bit flaky in
certain situations as well (can be checked later), better to actually
have two entries that represent what the code does.

The Compositor node tree is no longer embedded in the Scene, so having
its action and slot selector in Scene properties doesn't properly
represent the data model anymore. For example, the node tree could
in theory be shared across multiple scenes as a standard setup in a
project.

Previously there was no way to select/manage the action and slot
assigned to most kinds of node trees. This addresses that oversight.
This applies to all node trees that are not embedded IDs.
