X3D has been (basically) ported in rBAe8da70ab73d2dd5ff46, and 3DS has
been downgraded to 'community' support, so we can get rid of that ugly
'slience warning' hack.
In some cases it doesn't make sense for add-ons to be listed for hiding.
Especially for import/export which use minimal UI space.
This adds `bl_info["use_owner"]` to add-ons,
currently defaulting to True for all non Import-Export add-ons.
Allows for each workspace to have it's own add-ons on display.
Filtering for: Panels, Menus, Keymaps & Manipulators.
Automatically applies to add-ons at the moment.
Access from workspace, toggled off by default
once enabled, add-ons can be white-listed.

Would run register() twice causing warning with `register_module()`
which expects new classes to be defined.
Now run unregister() before re-registering.
The addons tab in the User Settings window would be empty, due to
a FileNotFound error. This error can be caused by a broken symlink,
which is now treated the same was as a file that misses its bl_info
dictionary.
Recent addons commit meant that addons would be enabled even if they weren't found.
This would give an error (which is fine), but also remove from preferences.
The addons panel draw function calls addon_utils.modules() which in turn retrieves a list of fake modules from the script paths every time. This can become costly when network paths are included for
addons. Solution is to put the scanning process into a dedicated "refresh" function and disable it in frequently called draw and filter functions, i.e. in these cases the cached addons_fake_modules list
will be used instead.
Note that this may lead to invalid addon lists if script paths are changed (which is not working 100% without restart anyway according to Campbell). For this there is now a "Refresh" operator button in
the addons preferences. If necessary and feasible such forced refreshes can be added later too.
