The outliner already uses the alternating row theme color as an
overlay for every other row. This uses the same color for the file
browser, instead of a hardcoded shading.
The file browser background color is slightly tweaked to match the
outliner, and the Blender Light theme is updated to use a lighter
background color like the outliner.

The file subversion is no longer used in the Python API or user interface,
and is now internal to Blender.
User interface, Python API and file I/O metadata now use more consistent
formatting for version numbers. Official releases use "2.83.0", "2.83.1",
and releases under development use "2.90.0 Alpha", "2.90.0 Beta".
Some Python add-ons may need to lower the Blender version in bl_info to
(2, 83, 0) or (2, 90, 0) if they used a subversion number higher than 0.

The old value (1.0) was often too large in practice. When many collection
instances are created, the large empties create a mess in the viewport.
This adds a new preference setting in `Editing -> Objects -> New Objects`
called `Instance Empty Size`.
The value will be used as display size for new empties containing a
collection instance.

This color had it's alpha reduced in the drawing code,
as the active face is no longer stippled.
Now the color is used from the theme without adjusting the alpha.
This patch adds ability to set up colors and size of background
(transparency) checkerboard pattern in viewport and 2d editors. No new
backgrounds, only changing colors in existing ones.
This is not the background of the viewport, it is a transparency
checkerboard that is turned on only in render mode, when the
transparency mode is on. And also in 2D-editors, (image, sequencer,
etc).

This patch implements dumping images from cache to HDD.
The main goal of this system is to provide a means to achieve consistent playback speed mainly for strips that are not possible to preview in real time.
How to use:
Disk cache has own settings in user preferences for path to storage, size limit and compression level.
To use disk cache, you need to check `Use Disk Cache` box, set `Disk Cache Directory`, `Disk Cache Limit` and save or open existing .blend file.
By default sequencer output will be cached only. Manual setting is possible in cache panel.
Uses:
- Replacement or alternative for proxies. Disk cache will work with any strip type, supports float images as well.
- Storage for strip thumbnails.
- Less RAM needs to be allocated for preview cache
How it works:
Disk cache is extension of RAM cache. Every image, that is stored or deleted in RAM will be stored or deleted on HDD as well. Images can be compressed to save space and for use on slower drives. Compressed images are slower to write and read though.
Images are stored in bulk of 100 rendered frames per one file. This is to overcome slow file access time for large amount of files. Drawback is, that if one frame needs to be redrawn, all 100 frames are deleted.

The NLA Editor sidebar is currently out of step with the rest of Blender, and in particular the Sequencer, which offers similar features and functionality. This patch makes a number of UI layout changes to make it fit in.
- Remove Active Track panel, since the track names can just be edited in the source list on the left
- Rejiggered the categories to be more understandable. 'Strip' includes settings for the current strip, and 'Edited Action' includes settings for the action that is currently being edited
- Use single column split layout
- Use name + mute toggle configuration like in the Sequencer
- Fix an issue with the theme, where the sidebar background was too dark, breaking the bright -> dark hierarchical logic
- Use sub-panels for animated strip properties controls

Blender supports locking vertex groups to prevent changes to the
weights. However, as mentioned in comments for D3837, it is hard
to use this because there is no interface for locking in 3D View.
This adds a red shade to bones that are associated with a locked
weight group during weight paint mode, as the first step to adding
such interface. The next step is adding a pie menu for lock/unlock.

This adds the ID-Filters visible on append/link to the settings the file
browser remembers, potentially storing them in the Preferences.
Artists in the studio here requested this. They typically have to set up
the same or similar settings every time, so this saves them from that.
The default was changed with an initial implementation of the feature.
With the feedback from animators, having a behavior which affects curves
outside of a changing range is not convenient for professional animators
working on high quality character animation. On the other hand, automatic
smoothing is better for casual animation of object motion.
This change adds an ability to change the default via User Preferences.

This makes it so that some display related properties of the file
browser state are remembered in the Preferences. Otherwise, users often
end up doing the same set up work over and over again, so this is a
nice way to save users some work.
It's typical for other file browsers to remember their state too, so
another benefit is having a more conventional behavior, meeting user
expectations better.
Some points:
* We currently store: Window size, display type, thumbnail size,
enabled details-columns, sort options, "Show Hidden" option. More can
be added easily.
* No changes are stored to the Preferences if "Auto-save Preferences"
is disabled. This is how Quick Favorites behave too and it's a
reasonable way to make this behavior optional.
* The Preferences are only saved to permanent memory upon closing
Blender, following existing convention of Preferences and Quick
Favorites.
* If settings weren't actually changed, Preference saving is skipped.
* Only temporary file browsers save their state (invoked through
actions like open or save), not regular file browser editors. These
are usually used for different purposes and workflows.
* Removes "Show Thumbnails" Preferences option. It would need some
special handling, possibly introducing bugs. For users, this
simplifies behavior and should make things more predictable.
