Support holding alt while invoking modifier operations for add, apply,
remove, and move to index in the property editor. This affects all selected
editable objects instead of just the active object.
Though the alt key is not that visible, it's consistent with the
existing multi-object property editing shortcut. If/when multi-
object editing is every made the default, the alt key could
be reversed here too.
Changes as part of #120230.

Move the public functions from the editors/object (`ED_object.hh`)
header to the `blender::ed::object` namespace, and move all of the
implementation files to the namespace too. This provides better code
completion, makes it easier to use other C++ code, removes unnecessary
redundancy and verbosity from local uses of public functions, and more
cleanly separates different modules.
See the diff in `ED_object.hh` for the main renaming changes.

The previous commit introduced a new `RPT_()` macro to translate
strings which are not tooltips or regular interface elements, but
longer reports or statuses.
This commit uses the new macro to translate many strings all over the
UI.
Most of it is a simple replace from `TIP_()` or `IFACE_()` to
`RPT_()`, but there are some additional changes:
- A few translations inside `BKE_report()` are removed altogether
because they are already handled by the translation system.
- Messages inside `UI_but_disable()` are no longer translated
manually, but they are handled by a new regex in the translation
system.

"Apply as Shape Key" and "Save as Shape Key" shared the same icon, it
is good practice to not use the same icon for two consecutive items
in the same group in a menu.
Also add a separator to split Shape Key-related items from the rest.
When adding modifiers from assets in the new modifier menu, switching
the node group the modifier uses afterwards will not be common. The goal
is to replace the builtin modifier directly. In that case it's easier to
just add a new modifier. The "Empty Modifier" item makes it easy to
choose an arbitrary node group anyway.
Combined with hiding the two sub-panels when they are unnecessary,
many node-modifiers will look just as clean as their builtin counterparts.
The option to show the data-block selector is added to the menu
in the node header so it's still accessible though.

There are a couple of functions that create rna pointers. For example
`RNA_main_pointer_create` and `RNA_pointer_create`. Currently, those
take an output parameter `r_ptr` as last argument. This patch changes
it so that the functions actually return a` PointerRNA` instead of using
the output parameters.
This has a few benefits:
* Output parameters should only be used when there is an actual benefit.
Otherwise, one should default to returning the value.
* It's simpler to use the API in the large majority of cases (note that this
patch reduces the number of lines of code).
* It allows the `PointerRNA` to be const on the call-site, if that is desired.
No performance regression has been measured in production files.
If one of these functions happened to be called in a hot loop where
there is a regression, the solution should be to use an inline function
there which allows the compiler to optimize it even better.

Since menus are created flipped (from event handling point of view), the
root layout block needs to be flagged `UI_BLOCK_IS_FLIP`.
This was missing for a couple of `uiMenuCreateFunc`, namely:
- creating worspaces menu
- modifiers extra ops
- constraints extra ops
- GP modifiers extra ops
- GP Shader FX extra ops
Same fix as f51de2246c.
Not crtitcal, but could go into LTS I guess.

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:
