Moves code for managing dragging data from buttons to a separate file.
This way all this closely related code is in one location, making it
easier to see how it all relates, and easier to find.
Avoids having to manually enable data-blocks for user-edition when you
do not care about what should be edited by whom. Similar to default
behavior before introduction of system overrides (aka non-user-editable
overrides).
This is fairly tricky to perform, since there is often very limited
contextual information available about the 'active' hierarchy to
override.
This commit is a first step, it is expected to handle decently well
cases like objects and obdata (recreating necessary object and
collection hierarchy, and/or hooking it to a potential existing
hierarchy), at least in most common cases.

The Output Properties > Output panel now has a Color Management subpanel to
override scene settings. When set to Override instead of Follow Scene, there
are settings to:
* For OpenEXR, choose a (linear) colorspace for RGBA passes
* For other file formats, use different display/view/look/exposure/gamma
These settings affect animation render output, image save of renders and the
compositor file output node. Additionally, the image save operator and
compositor file output nodes also support overriding color management.
Includes some layout changes to the relevant panels to accomdate the new
settings and to improve consistency. Ideally subpanels would be used to better
organize these settings, however nodes and operators don't currently support
creating subpanels.

Since 9b298cf3db we generate a `RNA_prototypes.h` for RNA property

`Curves`
- In the longer term (no immediate plans), use a proper data block for

This change will make handling of liboverrides hierarchies (especially
resyncing) much easier and efficient. It should also make it more
resilient to 'degenerate' cases, and allow proper support of things like
parenting an override to another override of the same linked data (e.g.
a override character parented to another override of the same
character).
NOTE: this commit only implements minimal changes to add that data and
generate it for existing files on load. Actual refactor of resync code
to take advantage of this new info will happen separately.
Based on discussions from T95355 and T94193, the plan is to use
the name "Curves" to describe the data-block container for multiple
curves. Eventually this will replace the existing "Curve" data-block.
However, it will be a while before the curve data-block can be replaced
so in order to distinguish the two curve types in the UI, "Hair Curves"
will be used, but eventually changed back to "Curves".
This patch renames "hair-related" files, functions, types, and variable
names to this convention. A deep rename is preferred to keep code
consistent and to avoid any "hair" terminology from leaking, since the
new data-block is meant for all curve types, not just hair use cases.
The downside of this naming is that the difference between "Curve"
and "Curves" has become important. That was considered during
design discussons and deemed acceptable, especially given the
non-permanent nature of the somewhat common conflict.
Some points of interest:
- All DNA compatibility is lost, just like rBf59767ff9729.
- I renamed `ID_HA` to `ID_CV` so there is no complete mismatch.
- `hair_curves` is used where necessary to distinguish from the
existing "curves" plural.
- I didn't rename any of the cycles/rendering code function names,
since that is also used by the old hair particle system.

Override layers are a standard feature of Alembic, where archives can override
data from other archives, provided that the hierarchies match.
This is useful for modifying a UV map, updating an animation, or even creating
some sort of LOD system where low resolution meshes are swapped by high resolution
versions.
It is possible to add UV maps and vertex colors using this system, however, they
will only appear in the spreadsheet editor when viewing evaluated data, as the UV
map and Vertex color UI only show data present on the original mesh.
Implementation wise, this adds a `CacheFileLayer` data structure to the `CacheFile`
DNA, as well as some operators and UI to present and manage the layers. For both
the Alembic importer and the Cycles procedural, the main change is creating an
archive from a list of filepaths, instead of a single one.
After importing the base file through the regular import operator, layers can be added
to or removed from the `CacheFile` via the UI list under the `Override Layers` panel
located in the Mesh Sequence Cache modifier. Layers can also be moved around or
hidden.

This adds interface panels to organize the Cache File UI parameters for
modifiers and constraints into related components: velocity, time, and
render procedural.
Properties relating to the three aforementioned components are separated
from `uiTemplateCacheFile` into their own functions (e.g.
`uiTemplateCacheFileVelocity` for the velocity one), which are in turn
called from the specific panel creation routines of the modifiers and
constraints (for constraints, the functions are exposed to the RNA).
`uiTemplateCacheFile` now only shows the properties for the file path,
and in the case of constraints, the scale property.
The properties that are only defined per modifier (like the velocity
scale), are shown in the proper modifier layout panel if applicable.

Outliner would frame the armature object instead of the bone if the bone
was on a hidden armature layer.
Similar to issues reported in e.g. T58068 and T80464, this is due to the
fact that `BKE_pose_channel_active` always checks for the armature layer
(and returns NULL if a bone is not on a visible armature layer).
Now propose to make this layer check **optional** (and e.g. from the
Outliner be more permissive). This also introduces
`BKE_pose_channel_active_if_layer_visible` which just wraps
`BKE_pose_channel_active` with the check being ON.

Alternative to D13291 (description partially copied from there).
New drag & drop reordering code would call constraints reordering
operator with the generic context, and not the one from the panel's
layout. missing the "constraint" member which is mandatory for poll
function to properly deal with override vs. local constraints.
For this to work in a decent way, there needs to be some panel-wide
context that we can restore when executing callbacks outside of the
normal draw context. So similar to uiLayoutSetContextPointer() to set
context on a layout level, this introduces
UI_panel_context_pointer_set() for panel level context (this calls the
former for the current panel root layout as well).

Draw thumbnails as strip overlay. This works for movie and image strips.
To draw thumbnails, this overlay has to be enabled and strips must be
tall enough.
The thumbnails are loaded from source file using separate thread and
stored in cache.
Drawing code uses only images stored in cache, and if any is missing,
background rendering job is started. If job can not render thumbnail,
to prevent endless loop of creating job for missing image it sets
`SEQ_FLAG_SKIP_THUMBNAILS` bit of `Sequence` flag.
To prevent visual glitches during timeline panning and zooming, `View2D`
flag `V2D_IS_NAVIGATING` is implemented. If bit is set, drawing code
will look for set of evenly distributed thumbnails that should be
guaranteed to exist and also set of previously displayed thumbnails.
Due to volatile nature of cache these thumbnails can be missing anyway,
in which case no new thumbnails will be drawn for particular strip.
Cache capacity is limited to 5000 thumbnails and performs cleanup of
non visible images when limit is reached.

anymore, time to get rid of it.
This adds a setting to enable data caching, and another one to set the
maximum cache size in megabytes.
When caching is enabled we load the data for the entire animation in
memory, as we already do, however, if the data exceeds the memory limit,
render is aborted.
When caching is disabled, we simply load the data for the current frame
in memory.

This patch exposes the Cycles Alembic Procedural through the MeshSequenceCache
modifier in order to use and test it from Blender.
To enable it, one has to switch the render feature set to experimental and
activate the Procedural in the modifier. An Alembic Procedural is then
created for each CacheFile from Blender set to use the Procedural, and each
Blender object having a MeshSequenceCache modifier is added to list of objects
of the right procedural.
The procedural's parameters derive from the CacheFile's properties which are
already exposed in the UI through the modifier, although more Cycles specific
options might be added in the future.
As there is currently no cache controls and since we load all the data at the
beginning of the render session, the procedural is only available during
viewport renders at the moment. When an Alembic procedural is rendered, data
from the archive are not read on the Blender side.
If a Cycles render is not active and the CacheFile is set to use the Cycles Procedural,
bounding boxes are used to display the objects in the scene as a signal that the
objects are not processed by Blender anymore. This is standard in other DCCs.
However this does not reduce the memory usage from Blender as the Alembic data
was already loaded either during an import or during a .blend file read.
This is mostly a hack to test the Cycles Alembic procedural until we have a
better Blender side mechanism for letting renderers load their own geometry,
which will be based on import and export settings on Collections (T68933).

Add Apply Constraint, Duplicate Constraint, and Copy To Selected
operators, and include them in a menu similar to the menu for modifiers.
The shortcuts in the extras menu are also matched to modifiers.
All the here added operators are intended to work exactly like the
analogous ones for modifiers. That means the apply operator should apply
a constraint as if it was first in the list, just like modifiers do. I
have added the same warning message as for modifiers when that happens.
The decision to use this approach of appling the constraint as if it was
first, was made for consistency with modifiers. People are already used
to how it works there. Is also provides more intricate control over the
applied transforms, then just applying all constraints up to that one.
Apply all constraints is already kinda implemented in Bake Animation.

This move was already prepared with 788d380460 and 26b098c04f. The
template is quite big already, better to give it its own file. Plus it
could use some C++ features like RAII and maybe some more object
oriented code. I plan further refactoring there.
For pose libraries, we need to be able to apply a pose whenever
activating (clicking) an item in the Pose Library asset view and blend
it by dragging (press & move). And since we want to allow Python scripts
to define what happens at least when activating an asset (so they can
define for example a custom "Apply" operator for preset assets), it
makes sense to just let them pass an operator name to the asset view
template. The template will be introduced in a following commit.
This new layout type is meant for the upcoming asset view UI template.
With it it is possible to show big asset previews with their names in a
responsive grid layout.
Notes:
* The layout is only available for C defined UI lists. We could expose
it to Python, but I think there are still some scrolling issues to be
fixed first. (The asset view template doesn't use scrolling for the UI
list.)
* I'd consider this a more usable version of the existing `GRID` layout
type. We may remove that in favor of the new one in future.
This is more of a first-pass refactor for the UI list template. More
improvements could be done, but that's better done separately. Main
purpose of this is to make the UI list code more manageable and ready
for the asset view template.
No functional changes for users.
* Split the huge template function into more manageable functions, with
clear names and a few structs with high coherency.
* Move runtime data management to the template code, with a free
callback called from BKE. This is UI data and should be managed at
that level.
* Replace boolean arguments with bit-flags (easily extendable and more
readable from the caller).
* Allow passing custom-data to the UI list for callbacks to access.
* Make list grip button for resizing optional.
* Put logic for generating the internal UI list identifier (stored in
.blends) into function. This is a quite important bit and a later
commit adds a related function. Good to have a clear API for this.
* Improve naming, comments, etc.
As part of further cleanups I'd like to move this to an own file.
