Only the text editor supported the primary clipboard & only for modal
selection. Now selecting text in the console & 3D text editing also
sets the primary clipboard under X11 & Wayland.
Notes:
- Pasting from the primary clipboard isn't yet exposed in the key-map
so in practice it's only useful for pasting text outside of Blender.
- Use skip-save option when pasting from the primary selection
so this is never used by the regular paste shortcut.
- This commit adds a primary-clipboard flag to WM_capabilities_flag() so
creating the the copy-buffer is only performed when necessary.

Follows the recent obmat to object_to_world refactor: the
similar naming is used, and it is a run-time only rename,
meaning, there is no affect on .blend files.
This patch does not touch the redundant inversions. Those

be the best to do it as a separate change.

Motivation is to disambiguate on the naming level what the matrix
actually means. It is very easy to understand the meaning backwards,
especially since in Python the name goes the opposite way (it is
called `world_matrix` in the Python API).
It is important to disambiguate the naming without making developers
to look into the comment in the header file (which is also not super
clear either). Additionally, more clear naming facilitates the unit
verification (or, in this case, space validation) when reading an
expression.
This patch calls the matrix `object_to_world` which makes it clear
from the local code what is it exactly going on. This is only done
on DNA level, and a lot of local variables still follow the old
naming.
A DNA rename is setup in a way that there is no change on the file
level, so there should be no regressions at all.
The possibility is to add `_matrix` or `_mat` suffix to the name
to make it explicit that it is a matrix. Although, not sure if it
really helps the readability, or is it something redundant.

When a change happens which invalidates view layers the syncing will be postponed until the first usage.
This will improve importing or adding many objects in a single operation/script.
`BKE_view_layer_need_resync_tag` is used to tag the view layer to be out of sync. Before accessing
`BKE_view_layer_active_base_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_object_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_collection`
or `BKE_view_layer_object_bases` the caller should call `BKE_view_layer_synced_ensure`.
Having two functions ensures that partial syncing could be added as smaller patches in the future. Tagging a
view layer out of sync could be replaced with a partial sync. Eventually the number of full resyncs could be
reduced. After all tagging has been replaced with partial syncs the ensure_sync could be phased out.
This patch has been added to discuss the details and consequences of the current approach. For clarity
the call to BKE_view_layer_ensure_sync is placed close to the getters.
In the future this could be placed in more strategical places to reduce the number of calls or improve
performance. Finding those strategical places isn't that clear. When multiple operations are grouped
in a single script you might want to always check for resync.
Some areas found that can be improved. This list isn't complete.
These areas aren't addressed by this patch as these changes would be hard to detect to the reviewer.
The idea is to add changes to these areas as a separate patch. It might be that the initial commit would reduce
performance compared to master, but will be fixed by the additional patches.
**Object duplication**
During object duplication the syncing is temporarily disabled. With this patch this isn't useful as when disabled
the view_layer is accessed to locate bases. This can be improved by first locating the source bases, then duplicate
and sync and locate the new bases. Will be solved in a separate patch for clarity reasons ({D15886}).
**Object add**
`BKE_object_add` not only adds a new object, but also selects and activates the new base. This requires the
view_layer to be resynced. Some callers reverse the selection and activation (See `get_new_constraint_target`).
We should make the selection and activation optional. This would make it possible to add multiple objects
without having to resync per object.
**Postpone Activate Base**
Setting the basact is done in many locations. They follow a rule as after an action find the base and set
the basact. Finding the base could require a resync. The idea is to store in the view_layer the object which
base will be set in the basact during the next sync, reducing the times resyncing needs to happen.

3D text included checks for escape codes such as \n\r\b which have not
been included in wmEvent.ascii since [0] (2009).
Remove these and use more straightforward logic for overriding the
events text input.
[0] 66437a62a7
The `ascii` member was only kept for historic reason as some platforms
didn't support utf8 when it was first introduced.
Remove the `ascii` struct members since many checks used this as a
fall-back for utf8_buf not being set which isn't needed.
There are a few cases where it's convenient to access the ASCII value
of an event (or nil) so a function has been added to do that.
*Details*
- WM_event_utf8_to_ascii() has been added for the few cases an events
ASCII value needs to be accessed, this just avoids having to do
multi-byte character checks in-line.
- RNA Event.ascii remains, using utf8_buf[0] for single byte characters.
- GHOST_TEventKeyData.ascii has been removed.
- To avoid regressions non-ASCII Latin1 characters from GHOST are
converted into multi-byte UTF8, when building X11 without
XInput & X_HAVE_UTF8_STRING it seems like could still occur.
This commit adds a new face nearest snapping mode, adds new snapping
options, and (lightly) refactors code around snapping.
The new face nearest snapping mode will snap transformed geometry to the
nearest surface in world space. In contrast, the original face snapping
mode uses projection (raycasting) to snap source to target geometry.
Face snapping therefore only works with what is visible, while nearest
face snapping can snap geometry to occluded parts of the scene. This new
mode is critical for retopology work, where some of the target mesh
might be occluded (ex: sliding an edge loop that wraps around the
backside of target mesh).
The nearest face snapping mode has two options: "Snap to Same Target"
and "Face Nearest Steps". When the Snap to Same Object option is
enabled, the selected source geometry will stay near the target that it
is nearest before editing started, which prevents the source geometry
from snapping to other targets. The Face Nearest Steps divides the
overall transformation for each vertex into n smaller transformations,
then applies those n transformations with surface snapping interlacing
each step. This steps option handles transformations that cross U-shaped
targets better.
The new snapping options allow the artist to better control which target
objects (objects to which the edited geometry is snapped) are considered
when snapping. In particular, the only option for filtering target
objects was a "Project onto Self", which allowed the currently edited
mesh to be considered as a target. Now, the artist can choose any
combination of the following to be considered as a target: the active
object, any edited object that isn't active (see note below), any non-
edited object. Additionally, the artist has another snapping option to
exclude objects that are not selectable as potential targets.
The Snapping Options dropdown has been lightly reorganized to allow for
the additional options.
Included in this patch:
- Snap target selection is more controllable for artist with additional
snapping options.
- Renamed a few of the snap-related functions to better reflect what
they actually do now. For example, `applySnapping` implies that this
handles the snapping, while `applyProject` implies something entirely
different is done there. However, better names would be
`applySnappingAsGroup` and `applySnappingIndividual`, respectively,
where `applySnappingIndividual` previously only does Face snapping.
- Added an initial coordinate parameter to snapping functions so that
the nearest target before transforming can be determined(for "Snap to
Same Object"), and so the transformation can be broken into smaller
steps (for "Face Nearest Steps").
- Separated the BVH Tree getter code from mesh/edit mesh to its own
function to reduce code duplication.
- Added icon for nearest face snapping.
- The original "Project onto Self" was actually not correct! This option
should be called "Project onto Active" instead, but that only matters
when editing multiple meshes at the same time. This patch makes this
change in the UI.

The transformation snapping code contains a bunch of `#define`s, some ambiguously or incorrectly named attributes. This patch contains refactored code to improve this. This patch does (should) not change functionality of snapping.
Clarified ambiguously / incorrectly named attributes.
- "Target" is used to refer to the part of the source that is to be snapped (Active, Median, Center, Closest), but several other areas of Blender use the term "target" to refer to the thing being snapped to and "source" to refer to the thing getting snapped. Moreover, the implications of the previous terms do not match the descriptions. For example: `SCE_SNAP_TARGET_CENTER` does not snap the grabbed geometry to the center of the target, but instead "Snap transforamtion center onto target".
- "Select" refers to the condition for an object to be a possible target for snapping.
- `SCE_SNAP_MODE_FACE` is renamed to `SCE_SNAP_MODE_FACE_RAYCAST` to better describe its affect and to make way for other face snapping methods (ex: nearest).
Refactored related `#define` into `enum`s. In particular, constants relating to...
- `ToolSettings.snap_flag` are now in `enum eSnapFlag`
- `ToolSettings.snap_mode` are now in `enum eSnapMode`
- `ToolSettings.snap_source` (was `snap_target`) are now in `enum eSnapSourceSelect`
- `ToolSettings.snap_flag` (`SCE_SNAP_NO_SELF`) and `TransSnap.target_select` are now in `enum eSnapTargetSelect`
As the terms became more consistent and the constants were packed together into meaningful enumerations, some of the attribute names seemed ambiguous. For example, it is unclear whether `SnapObjectParams.snap_select` referred to the target or the source. This patch also adds a small amount of clarity.
This patch also swaps out generic types (ex: `char`, `short`, `ushort`) and unclear hard coded numbers (ex: `0`) used with snap-related enumerations with the actual `enum`s and values.
Note: I did leave myself some comments to follow-up with further refactoring. Specifically, using "target" and "source" consistently will mean the Python API will need to change (ex: `ToolSettings.snap_target` is not `ToolSettings.snap_source`). If the API is going to change, it would be good to make sure that the used terms are descriptive enough. For example, `bpy.ops.transform.translate` uses a `snap` argument to determine if snapping should be enabled while transforming. Perhaps `use_snap` might be an improvement that's more consistent with other conventions.
This patch is (mostly) a subset of D14591, as suggested by @mano-wii.
Task T69342 proposes to separate the `Absolute Grid Snap` option out from `Increment` snapping method into its own method. Also, there might be reason to create additional snapping methods or options. (Indeed, D14591 heads in this direction). This patch can work along with these suggestions, as this patch is trying to clarify the snapping code and to prompt more work in this area.

Some edit-curve operators used an 'ok' variable to represent
if the selection was found and if a change was made.
Previously it would only return cancel if an error was shown
causing a redundant undo step to be added without a selection.

use two variables with meaningful names to avoid confusion.
Reviewing D14511 highlighted this issue.
Remove the extended version of ED_curve_editnurb_select_pick,
pass the size threshold directly to this function but as the distance in

* Move Adjacent Handle: Move the closer handle of the adjacent vertex.
Defaults to Left Ctrl. Activated on hold.
* Move Entire: Move the entire point by moving by grabbing on the handle
Defaults to Spacebar. Activated on hold.
* Link Handles: Mirror the movement of one handle onto the other.
Defaults to Right Ctrl. Activated on press.
