It's still not completely working - there are still some glitches - but far better than before.
To make buttons of the uiList work, you have to add a 'check' callback to the operator that invokes the menu. Only if it returns True, the uiList gets refreshed. To avoid this we have to make the region refresh tagging in the entire button handling a bit smarter.
Changes I had to do:
* Call uiList handling from menu/popup handling if needed.
* Make uiList handling use special popup refresh tag if placed in menu.
* Allow popups invoked from py operator to tag for refresh by using operator 'check' callback.
* Tag popup for refresh when resizing uiList.
Mostly fixes T48612.
This is purely internal sanitizing/cleanup, no change in behavior is expected at all.
This change was also needed because we were getting short on ID flags, and
future enhancement of 'user_one' ID behavior requires two new ones.
id->flag remains for persistent data (fakeuser only, so far!), this also allows us
100% backward & forward compatibility.
New id->tag is used for most flags. Though written in .blend files, its content
is cleared at read time.
Note that .blend file version was bumped, so that we can clear runtimeflags from
old .blends, important in case we add new persistent flags in future.
Also, behavior of tags (either status ones, or whether they need to be cleared before/after use)
has been added as comments to their declaration.

It basically rewrites most of filelist.c, with some more limited changes in other areas of filebrowser.
From user perspective, it:
* Removes some info in 'long' drawing mode (owner, permissions) - OS-specific data that do not really matter in Blender!
* Makes short/long display 'fixed' size (among four choices, like thumbnails mode).
* Allows to list several layers of dirtree at once, in a flat way (inside .blend files and/or real directories).
* Consequently, adds datablocks types filtering.
* Uses way less RAM when listing big directories, especially in thumbnail mode (we are talking of several hundred of MiB spared).
* Generates thumbnails way faster.
From code perspective, it:
* Is ready for asset engine needs (on data structure level in filebrowser's listing).
* Simplifies and makes 'generic' file listing much lighter.
* Separates file listing in three different aspects:
** 'generic' filelisting (in BLI), which becomes a shallow wrapper around stat struct.
** 'filebrowser drawing' filelisting, which only contains current visible subset of the whole list (sliding window), with extra drawing data (strings for size, date/time, preview, etc.).
** 'asset-ready' filelisting, which is used for operations common to 'basic' filehandling and future asset-related one.
* Uses uuid's to handle file selection/state in the browser, instead of using flags in filelisting items.
* Uses much lighter BLI_task handling for previews, instead of heavy 'job' system (using the new 'notifier' timer to handle UI refresh, in similar way to jobs).
* Moves .blend datablocks preview handling to IMB_thumbnail (necessary to avoid storing all datablock previews at once, and gives better consistency and performances too).

Thanks to Campbell & Sergey for the reviews. :)
- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
* Do not translate renderlayers' names, those are data, not UI (defined by user).
* Translate passes' names, even in button itself (menu items were already translated).
* Translate 'ID type' in ID eyedropper helper message.
Also, added i18n context to IDType private struct, and `BKE_idcode_to_translation_context()`
helper, much more generic and easy to maintain than the private util in interface_template.c.
- label is shown on a UI_UNIT_Y heigh instead of 0.2 * total button size
- vertically centering non-ID previews labels
- making some constants dependent on ui units
- elongate the buttons to acomodate the icon without the label overlapping.
- removing the blue background
- adding a consistent margin all around the popup
Currently this function only tags pose itself, totally matching previous
behavior. But this will be needed in the future once new dependency graph
is landed, because of it's granular nature which relies on the fact that
pose channels are all up to date when building the graph.
Should be no functional changes so far.
This commit mainly:
* Exposes PreviewImage struct in RNA, including ways for user to set images data.
* Adds a new kind of PreviewImage, using a file path and IMB_thumb to get image.
* Adds a new kind of custom icon using PreviewImage, unrelated to ID previews system.
* Adds a python API (utils.previews) to allow python scripts to access those custom previews/icons.
Note that loading image from files' thumbnails is done when needed (deferred loading), not
when defining the custom preview/icon.
WARNING: for release addons who would want to use this, please keep it to a strict minimum, really needed level.
We do not want our UI to explode under hundreds of different flashy icons!

Normal dragging now uses a precision of 0.01 instead of 0.1, shift+dragging now uses 0.001. (0.1 steps can still be done using ctrl)
Requested by @venomgfx
Added translation there, also fixed a stupid bug which was leading most internal
operators to have 'dual' i18n_context (default NULL one and default 'Operator' one).
