Move most code to `blender::bke::subdiv`. That helps organization
and makes using C++ in subdiv code easier, which will be useful for
removing the unnecessary opensubdiv C-API wrapper.
Add support for add-ons to define commands using the new argument
`-c` or `--command`.
Commands behave as follows:
- Passing in a command enables background mode without the need to pass
in `--background`.
- All arguments following the command are passed to the command
(without the need to use the `--` argument).
- Add-ons can define their own commands via
`bpy.utils.register_cli_command` (see examples in API docs).
- Passing in `--command help` lists all available commands.
Ref !119115
In many modes, Blender uses the `MemFile` undo step, which serializes all DNA
data in RAM almost as if writing a .blend file. For auto-save, Blender used to
write the last `MemFile` undo step to disk because that was faster serializing
all of DNA again. Furthermore, saving the `quit.blend` file when closing Blender
also used this.
This functionality is now removed in preparate for supporting implicit sharing
in the undo system (#106903). Auto-save and saving the quit.blend file now use
regular file saving.
The removal of this feature and its implications have also been discussed here:
https://devtalk.blender.org/t/remove-support-for-saving-memfile-undo-steps-as-blend-files-proposal/33544
Auto-save currently only really works in modes that use the `MemFile` undo step,
that excludes things like mesh edit and sculpt mode. Previously, Blender would
attempt to auto-save in those modes, but it would only save the last state from
before the mode was entered, which is useless when staying in the mode for longer.
This problem is *not* fixed here. However, the code now explicitly skips auto-saving
in order to avoid unnecessary short freezes in these modes when Blender auto-saves.
Furthermore, the auto-save will now happen when changing modes.
This reduces the impact of save-time-regressions with #106903.

This PR adds a new command line argument to validate all statically
defined shaders. It is useful for platform support to understand
what isn't working.
It only checks statically defined shaders. Dynamic shaders (EEVEE/Compositor)
can still be fail.
The report is printed to console. After checking with windows platform and
triaging we could also add it to gpu debug script. There is a risk of adding it there
as it might crash and don't store any output.

Overall the transition to C++ in the draw module is awkwardly half
complete, but moving more code to a C++ namespace makes cleaning up
this code in other ways much easier, and the next C++ cleanup steps
are clear anyway.
This is a smaller rewrite/refactor of the VSE copy paste code to use the file copy buffer logic that is used in other places of Blender.
This makes Blender able to copy paste between Blender processes.
It can also paste successfully after closing and reopening Blender.
Other than that, the functionally should remain the exact same as the current copy paste operator with one exception: Scene strips does not retain their scene pointer when pasting into the same file.
This is to make it consistent with how it was before when copy pasting between .blend files.
(The scene data for the scene strips were never copied in when doing that)
Logic for pulling in or linking scenes into new or current files are purposely left for later when a proper proposal of how this would work in a nice fashion is done.
Now the strip data gets copied either fully or partially besides for scene strips. There only the script data gets copied and not the scene data.
If there is a audio/video data block of the same name as in the paste data, it will be reused to reduce potential duplication of data.

This was initially added a long time ago[1] to help with certain exit
behavior while running under a debugger. However, this shouldn't be
necessary any longer.
More importantly, tests have started to use the `--debug` option[2].
Somehow the bots are fine, but anyone running the tests locally on
Windows will experience what looks like a hang; unless they press a key
to allow the tests to continue.

The last good commit was 8474716abb.
After this commits from main were pushed to blender-v4.0-release. These are
being reverted.
Commits a4880576dc from to b26f176d1a that happend afterwards were meant for
4.0, and their contents is preserved.
Regression from [0] where the key-map was attempting to load preferences
for key-map items for add-on operators which were not yet defined.
Resolve by postponing keymap updating until after loading add-ons.

This commit makes using (most of) `BKE_report` API safe in
multi-threaded situation.
This is achieved by adding a `std::mutex` lock to the `ReportList`
struct (in a slightly convoluted way unfortunately, due to this being a
DNA struct). This lock is then used to make most operations on
`Reportlist` data thread-safe.
Note that while working on this, a few other minor issues aroze in
existing usages of Reportlist by the WM code, mainly the fact that
`wm_init_reports` and `wm_free_reports` were both useless:
- init was called in a context where there is not yet any WM, so it
was doing nothing.
- free was called on a WM that would be later freed (as part of Main
freeing), which would also call cleanup code for its `reports` data.
Both have been removed.
Further more, `wm_add_default` (which is the only place where a WM ID is
created) did not initialize properly it reports data, this has been
fixed.
This change is related to the wmJob thread-safety tasks and PRs (#112537,
!113548).

The goal is to make the search faster to use by dynamically adapting to the user.
This can be achieved using the simple but common approach of showing recently
selected items at the top. Note, that the "matching score" between the query and
each search item still has precedence when determining the order. So the last used
item is only at the top, if there is no other search item that matches the query better.
Besides making the search generally faster to use, my hope is that this can also
reduce the need for manually weighting search items in some places. This is
because while the ordering might not be perfect the first time, it will always be
once the user selected the element that should be at the top once.
This patch includes:
* Support for taking recent searches into account in string searching.
* Keep track of a global list of recent searches.
* Store recent searches on disk similar to recently opened files.
* A new setting in the user preferences that allows disabling the functionality.
This can be used if deterministic key strokes are required, e.g. for automated tests.
In the future this could be improved in different ways:
* Add some kind of separator in the search list to indicate which elements are at
the top because they have been used recently.
* Store the recent search items per search, instead of in a global list. This way
it could adapt to the user even better.

Previously BPY_python_end wasn't called when scripts called sys.exit()
because BPY_python_end exited the Python interpreter.
Change this behavior to call BPY_python_end without exiting the Python
interpreter while freeing Blender/Python data.
While leaks in the context of sys.exit aren't especially important
it's generally preferable for sys.exit() to match Blender's code-paths
for exiting to avoid unexpected behavior.
