Adds a "Pin Scene" option to the workspace. When activated, the workspace will
remember the scene that was last activated in it, so that when switching back
to this workspace, the same scene will be reactivated. This is important for a
VSE workflow, so that users can switch between different workspaces displaying
a scene and thus a timeline for a specific task.
The option can be found in the Properties, Workspace tab. D11890 additionally
adds an icon for this to the scene switcher in the topbar.
The workspace data contains a pointer to the scene which is a UI to scene data
relation. When appending a workspace, the pointer is cleared.

Properly use CLOG to report info or errors in `writefile.c`, instead of
printf's.
And remove some assert when logging error reports and the issue is not
critical.
Original rework of caches during undo/redo (see D8183) had a very bad
flaw hidden in it: using the key of a ghash as source of data.
While this was effectively working then (cache pointer itself being part
of the key, and said cache pointers not being cleared on file write),
this is a general very bad way to do things.
Now that cache pointers are more and more cleared on file write (as part
of clearing runtime-data to reduce false-positives when checking if an
ID has changed or not), this has to be fixed properly by:
* Not storing the cache pointer itself in the IDCacheKey.
* In undo context, in readfile code trying to preserve caches, store the
cache pointers as values of the mapping, together with the usages counter
The first change potentially affects all usages of
`BKE_idtype_id_foreach_cache`, but in practice this code is only used by
memfile reading code (i.e. undo) currently.

Even though the size of the map was set back to DEFAULT_SIZE_EXP,
the underlying arrays were left unchained. In some cases this caused
further expansions to result in an unusual reallocation pattern
where MEM_reallocN would run expand the entries into an array
that was in fact the same size.
This commit renames enums related the "Curve" object type and ID type
to add `_LEGACY` to the end. The idea is to make our aspirations clearer
in the code and to avoid ambiguities between `CURVE` and `CURVES`.
Ref T95355
To summarize for the record, the plans are:
- In the short/medium term, replace the `Curve` object data type with
`Curves`
- In the longer term (no immediate plans), use a proper data block for
3D text and surfaces.

Ref D14069
This change will make handling of liboverrides hierarchies (especially
resyncing) much easier and efficient. It should also make it more
resilient to 'degenerate' cases, and allow proper support of things like
parenting an override to another override of the same linked data (e.g.
a override character parented to another override of the same
character).
NOTE: this commit only implements minimal changes to add that data and
generate it for existing files on load. Actual refactor of resync code
to take advantage of this new info will happen separately.
Based on discussions from T95355 and T94193, the plan is to use
the name "Curves" to describe the data-block container for multiple
curves. Eventually this will replace the existing "Curve" data-block.
However, it will be a while before the curve data-block can be replaced
so in order to distinguish the two curve types in the UI, "Hair Curves"
will be used, but eventually changed back to "Curves".
This patch renames "hair-related" files, functions, types, and variable
names to this convention. A deep rename is preferred to keep code
consistent and to avoid any "hair" terminology from leaking, since the
new data-block is meant for all curve types, not just hair use cases.
The downside of this naming is that the difference between "Curve"
and "Curves" has become important. That was considered during
design discussons and deemed acceptable, especially given the
non-permanent nature of the somewhat common conflict.
Some points of interest:
- All DNA compatibility is lost, just like rBf59767ff9729.
- I renamed `ID_HA` to `ID_CV` so there is no complete mismatch.
- `hair_curves` is used where necessary to distinguish from the
existing "curves" plural.
- I didn't rename any of the cycles/rendering code function names,
since that is also used by the old hair particle system.

This fixes a similar issue as the previous commit, but this time the

Appended objects could be hidden, making any further operations

Now FILE_AUTOSELECT asserts when newly added options aren't selectable.
De-duplicates wm_append_loose_data_instantiate_object_base_instance_init

Add BLO_object_instantiate_object_base_instance_init which also adds to

Some runtime data that stores which sockets can be fields and which
can't is not stored in the file, but only calculated when necessary.
When opening a file, the node tree update function was called, which
recalculated this data, but that was explicily turned off for undo.
This exposes a fundamental issue with undo, the ID caching system for
undo, and how it relates to node trees in particular. Ideally this call
couldn't be necessary at all. In the future it could be removed by
adding a runtime struct to node trees, and calculating its contents
on-demand instead of preemtively.

Copy/Paste uses its own code path for ID linking, which was not setting
`LIB_TAG_DOIT` for proper instantiation later on.
Would be nice the make this logic closer to the rest of the link/append
code at some point, but for now this fix will do.
No idea why this was done that way (it originate from initial paste
commit, rB12b642062c6f).
But the IDs 'selected' as direct paste in `BLO_library_link_copypaste`
should be 'directly' linked, it's similar case to actual append of
selected IDs by the user.
Related to T87189.
Flags controlling link/append code are split between two enums, one in
`DNA_space_types.h` and one in `BLO_readfile.h`.
This commit:
- Moves flags exclusively used in WM and BLO code to `eBLOLibLinkFlags`
in `BLO_readfile.h`. Flags in `eFileSel_Params_Flag` from
`DNA_space_types.h` are now only the ones effectively used by the
file browser editor code too.
- Fixes some internal utils in `readfile.c` still taking `short` flag
parameter instead of proper `int` one.
NOTE: there are a few other flags that could probably be moved to
`eBLOLibLinkFlags` (at the very least `FILE_LINK`, probably also
`FILE_AUTOSELECT` and `FILE_ACTIVE_COLLECTION`), since those are not
effectively used by the file browser, and control linking/appending
behavior, not filebrowser behavior.
However for now think it's safer to not touch that.
This commit adds to ID struct a new optional 'weak reference' to a
linked ID (in the form of a blend file library path and full ID name).
This can then be used on next append to try to find a matching local ID
instead of re-making the linked data local again.
Ref. T90545
NOTE: ID re-use will be disabled for regular append for the time being
(3.0 release), and only used for assets. Therefore, this commit should
not change anything user-wise.

We now use a for_each function with callback to iterate through all sequences in the scene.
This has the benefit that we now only loop over the sequences in the scene once.
Before we would loop over them twice and allocate memory to store temporary data.
The allocation of temporary data lead to unintentional memory leaks if the code used returns to exit out of the iteration loop.
The new for_each callback method doesn't allocate any temporary data and only iterates though all sequences once.

Compressing blendfiles can help save a lot of disk space, but the slowdown
while loading and saving is a major annoyance.
Currently Blender uses Zlib (aka gzip aka Deflate) for compression, but there
are now several more modern algorithms that outperform it in every way.
In this patch, I decided for Zstandard aka Zstd for several reasons:
- It is widely supported, both in other programs and libraries as well as in
general-purpose compression utilities on Unix
- It is extremely flexible - spanning several orders of magnitude of
compression speeds depending on the level setting.
- It is pretty much on the Pareto frontier for all of its configurations
(meaning that no other algorithm is both faster and more efficient).
One downside of course is that older versions of Blender will not be able to
read these files, but one can always just re-save them without compression or
decompress the file manually with an external tool.
The implementation here saves additional metadata into the compressed file in
order to allow for efficient seeking when loading. This is standard-compliant
and will be ignored by other tools that support Zstd.
If the metadata is not present (e.g. because you manually compressed a .blend
file with another tool), Blender will fall back to sequential reading.
Saving is multithreaded to improve performance. Loading is currently not
multithreaded since it's not easy to predict the access patterns of the
loading code when seeking is supported.
In the future, we might want to look into making this more predictable or
disabling seeking for the main .blend file, which would then allow for
multiple background threads that decompress data ahead of time.
The compression level was chosen to get sizes comparable to previous versions
at much higher speeds. In the future, this could be exposed as an option.

Ths commit adds a new `IDNameLibMap` to `Main`, used during file reading
to quickly find already read linked IDs.
Without that, search would use string-based search over list of linked
data, which becomes extremely slow and inneficient in cases where a lot
of IDs are linked from a same library. See also {T89194}.
Extrem-usecase reported in T89194 is now about 4 times faster in linked
data reading (about 2 times faster for the whole .blend file loading).
More normal cases (like Sprites studio production files) have barely
measurable speed improvements, a few percents at best.
NOTE: `main_idmap` API was extended to support insertion and removal of
IDs from the mapping, avoids having to re-create the whole thing several
time during libraries expansion in readcode.

Note that this commit uses a second LogRef (`blo.readfile.undo`) for undo
specific meassages. Allows to use `--log "*undo*"` cli option to match

Also did some minor tweaks to some reports on the way.
This reverts commit rB3a48147b8ab92, and fixes the issues with linking
etc.
Change compared to previous buggy commit (rBf8d219dfd4c31) is that
new `BlendFileReadReports` reports are now passed to the lowest level
function generating the `FileData` (`filedata_new()`), which ensures
(and asserts) that all code using it does have a valid non-NULL pointer
to a `BlendFileReadReport` data.
Sorry for the noise, it's always when you think a change is trivial and
do not test it well enough that you end up doing those kind of
mistakes...

console output. Mostly contractions like can't, won't, don't, its/it's,
