Bug was actually in outliner code, paste operator would not generate any
undo step...
This was not correct ever, but with new undo code this has become a
critical issue, it cannot survive a situation where current main data
has been changed without a proper undo push.
This illustrates again how much of a catastrophic mess the 'tools'
callbacks of the outliner are currently, it has already caused us quiet
some pain in the past, and will keep doing so until this is fully
sanitized am afraid.
Would strongly suggest getting rid of thosw nasty mix of custom
callbacks requiring manual undo pushes, I do not see the added value of
this compared to regular menus calling regular operators. It only adds
confusion and extra code for nothing...
Right now:
- drag-drop in the Outliner prevents dropping inside linked collections
- drag-drop in the Outliner allows dropping inside overridden
collections (should not be the case)
- `Object Properties` > `Collections` panel allows to add to overridden
collection (should not be the case)
- `Object Properties` > `Collections` panel filters out non-local
collections (so adding to linked collections is forbidden)
- `bpy collection.objects.link()` allows to add to linked collections
(should not be the case)
- `bpy collection.objects.link()` allows to add to overridden
collections (should not be the case)
While this might be supported in the future for overriden collections,
these cases should not be allowed atm. since objects get lost on file
reload.
Note: for the case of the `Object Properties` > `Collections` panel,
this could be improved further to filter out overridden collections as
well.

Overriding datablock should never have an editable name.
This also moves the check for linked/overridden datablocks above the
check for master-collection (otherwise a linked/overriden collection
could still be renamed)

For now the "Simulation" modifier only exists for point cloud objects, because
we need this for the particle system. Right now, the modifier is doing nothing.
There is a new `DEG_add_simulation_relation` function that is used
by the modifier to make sure that the simulation is evaluated before
the modifier is executed.

An unintentional side-effect of rBfe7528ee919b was that when
extend-selecting a selected element in the outliner, it would be
deselected and activated rather than selected and activated.
This commit restores the expected toggling behavior. Consistent behavior
for extend-selecting child datablocks is not resolvable without a much
larger cleanup of the outliner select functions.
All the driver-specific code in `fcurve.c` has been moved into a new file
`fcurve_driver.c`. The corresponding declarations have been moved from
`BKE_fcurve.h` to `BKE_fcurve_driver.h`.
All the `#include "BKE_fcurve.h"` statements have been investigated and
replaced with `BKE_fcurve_driver.h` where necessary.
No functional changes.
In the industry standard keymap, both deleting objects and collections
were mapped to the same keys causing confusion when only collections
could be deleted through the keymap.
This adds a new delete operator to delete all selected objects and
collections, accessible from both the keymap and context menu. Now any
selected objects and collections are deleted when Delete is chosen from
the keymap. This also updates the tooltip description which was
previously undocumented.
Resolves T67462
A few outliner operators that modify selection were not tagging for a
selection sync which led to selection inconsistencies. This adds syncing
for the following operators:
* Duplicating and deleting collections
* Selecting/deselecting collection contents
* Drag and drop
* Object select, deselect, delete, and delete hierarchy
This data block will be the container for simulation node trees.
It will be used for the new particle node system (T73324).
The new data block has the type `ID_SIM`.
It is not visible to users and other developers by default yet.
To enable it, activate the cmake option `WITH_NEW_SIMULATION_TYPE`.
New simulation data blocks can be created by running `bpy.data.simulations.new("name")`.

Adds syncing to a few operations that change selection, to avoid some
annoyances (like drag and drop of hierarchy to a different collection
only linking the parent to the collection).
Note that there's further refinement work for selection syncing in
D5572, but is awaiting some code design decisions. Meanwhile such quite
annoying issues should be fixed.
Addresses T75610.
Use a regular context menu as a fallback for the outliner.
If there are no specific actions for the item under the cursor,
fall through to opening a regular menu.
This lets menu search find the context menu items which were previously
unavailable as menu search wont run operators.
- Show dimmed text for the menu entries leading up to the menu item.
- Show icons between the menu text and menu item.
- Use unicode right pointing triangle instead of arrow.
Excluding a collection also changes the exclude setting on all child collections
so that it is possible to selectively enable some children without the parent
being enabled.
This change makes it so that if you unexclude the parent, the exclude setting
of children are restored again instead of being permanently lost.

There is no garuantee 'outliner_find_id()' can find those corresponding

The `BKE_animsys.h` and `anim_sys.c` files already had a an "AnimData
API" section. The code in that section has now been split off, and
placed into `BKE_anim_data.h` and `anim_data.c`.
All files that used to include `BKE_animsys.h` have been adjusted to
only include the animation headers they need (sometimes none).
No functional changes.
Follow up of b2ee1770d4 and 10c2254d41, part of T74432.
Now the area and region naming conventions should be less confusing.
Mostly a careful batch rename but had to do few smaller fixes.
Also ran clang-format on affected files.
This has some advantages over operator search:
- Some operators need options set to be usefully accessed.
- Shows key bindings to access menus
(for actions that don't have key bindings themselves).
- Non operator actions such as check-boxes are also shown.
- Menu items can control execution context, using invoke or execute
where appropriate so we can control how the operator runs.
Part of the design task T74157.
This can be tested using the 'Experimental' preferences section
or selected in the key-map editor.
Parenting in the outliner via drang and drop would always happen without
the 'Keep Transforms' option. Since this is often desired, this adds the
ability to hold Alt for doing this to the drop action.
Adding the hint to hold Alt to the operator name is not nice, but since
the operator name is used for the UI, there doesnt seem to be a nicer
way of doing this.
If modifier keys are needed back for other actions, spawning a menu
instead could be an alternative for the future.

Mpving utils from idcode to idtype proved to be somewhat painful for
some reasons, but now all looks good.
Had to add a fake/empty shell for the special snowflake too,
`ID_LINK_PLACEHOLDER/INDEX_ID_NULL`...
Both are doing almost the same and can be merged. This reduce complexity for user and less code to maintain.

This allows deleting both collections and objects in the outliner
selection at the same time. This only works using the keyboard shortcuts
(X or Delete).
While this works, a more robust solution should be implemented later to
allow deleting the whole selection from the context menu as well.
The old convention was easy to confuse with ScrArea.
Part of https://developer.blender.org/T74432.
This is mostly a batch rename with some manual fixing. Only single word
variable names are changed, no prefixed/suffixed names.
Brecht van Lommel and Campbell Barton both gave me a green light for
this convention change.
Also ran clan clang format on affected files.
- Use 'BKE_object_defgroup' prefix for object functions.
- Rename 'defvert_verify_index' to 'defvert_ensure_index'
since this adds the group if it isn't found.
Selecting certain child datablocks also selects the parent (e.g.
selecting a pose bone selects the armature). The base was selected, but
the outliner tree element was left unselected. The subsequent selection
sync would then deselect the parent base because it was not flagged as
selected in the outliner.
This led to issues like T74332 where selecting a pose bone in the
outliner did not show drivers in the driver editor unless the armature
was explicitly added to the selection afterwards.
The solution is to also flag the outliner elements as selected when
selecting parent bases.
