Simplify logic of speed effect frame calculation by using discrete math
where possible. Only `SEQ_SPEED_MULTIPLY` mode with animation requires
frame map to be built. Frame map building was simplified by removing
unused branches.
Functional change: Animating strip in negative range will reverse playback.
I assume this was limitation of previous system, where each frame map item
was limited to be within correct frame range. Now frame map can contain
values that point beyond usable range and they are limited by
`seq_speed_effect_target_frame_get`. This way it is possible to control
playback rate in both directions.
Mostly fixes T89120 apart from offset handling.

Prefetch needs to avoid rendering scene strips, because
- Rendering in background needs own dependency graph, which fails to
initialize from evaluated data.
- This locks UI and can make it unresponsive for long time periods.
In T88237 prefetch failed to avoid scene strip, because of effect strip
was attached to scene strip.
Ensure, that no effect that is attached to scene strip either directly
or indirectly would be rendered.

When splitting strips, first they are duplicated and then offsets
adjusted. This can fail on cross transitions, because some strips don't
overlap with split frame.
All strips, that relate to each other must be duplicated to ensure
correct relations after splitting, so solution is to delete non
overlapping strips from left or right side respectively.
Since cross transition don't have to overlap with source strips,
splitting such strips would lead to effect being deleted, which
could cause crash when iterating over strips in python. Therefore
splitting of such strips is now forbidden and will generate error.
Splitting of transition will also generate error solely because such
operation is illogical.

When all strips are selected and overlap is caused, this causes VSE to
hang in infinite loop, because such situation should never happen.
To prevent infinite loop, ensure, that strip overlap is not tested
against single overlapping strip itself.
Prevent overlap that can not be handled because of issue described above
by moving overlapping strip between channels.

Caused by {rBbbb1936411a5}.
When adding strips via the new SEQ_add_XXX_strip functions, the
`Editing->seqbasep` pointer was passed around.
Following in `seq_add_generic_update` this `seqbasep` pointer was used
to ensure a unique name.
But `seqbasep` is the pointer to the current list of seq's being edited
(**which can be limited to the ones within a meta strip**).
We need unique names across all strips though (since these are used for
RNA paths, FCurves as reported), so now use the scene's `Editing-
>seqbase` (**which is the list of the top-most sequences**) instead.
Unfortunately this might have screwed files to a borked state, not sure
if this could easily be fixed...

The duration and start time for audio strips were not correctly read in
audaspace.
Some video files have a "lead in" section of audio that plays before the
video starts playing back. Before this patch, we would play this lead in
audio at the same time as the video started and thus the audio would not
be in sync anymore.
Now the lead in audio is cut off and the duration should be correctly
calculated with this in mind.
If the audio starts after the video, the audio strip is shifted to
account for this, but it will also lead to cut off audio which might not
be wanted. However we don't have a simple way to solve this at this
point.

`split_multicam` used split operator, where if more strips than
multicam were selected, all would be split, which is undesirable.
Add `Sequence.split()` RNA API function. to split individual strips.
Function accepts `frame` and `split_method arguments`. Returns right
strip after splitting.
In case when strip being split have effects, these will be split too, so
no invalid state should be created.

When adding texts or various simple effects I often copy-paste strips
to reuse properties from a template such as font or position. I assume
this is common workflow. Issue with this workflow is, that active strip
is not changed after pasting, so when adjusting property, it is original
strip that is being modified.
This is not issue when duplicating strips - selection state is
transfered to duplicate strips, such that duplicate of active strip is
set to be active and duplicate of selected strip is set to selected.
Implement same selection transfering behavior in paste operator, that
exists in duplicate operator.
Since strip can be deleted after copying, it is not possible to rely
on sequencer state. This is true even when pasting strips to different
scene. Therefore active strip name must be stored in clipboard.

Default behavior is, that each transformed strip is snapped to any other strip.
Implement snapping controls in sequencer tool settings. These controls include:
- Snapping on/off
- Ability to snap to playhead and strip hold offset points
- Filter snap points by excluding sound or muted strips
- Control snapping distance
Snapping controls are placed in timeline header similar to 3D viewport

Reduce complexity of sequencer transform code by removing recursivity.
This is possible by treating meta strips (mostly) as any other strip and
containing all transform code within SEQ_ functions.
Unfortunately internally meta strips still require special treatment,
but all complexity from code all over transform code seems to be
possible to contain within one function.
Functional change:
Previously adjusting handle of single image strip moved animation.
Now animation is not moved, which is behavior for all other strips.
