The region used to be type "Channels", but the standard for this
type is "Tools", which is what the file browser uses. This follows
the changes in rB01df48a98394, which also make the region more
"standard."
This evaluator is used in order to evaluate subdivision at render time, allowing for
faster renders of meshes with a subdivision surface modifier placed at the last
position in the modifier list.
When evaluating the subsurf modifier, we detect whether we can delegate evaluation
to the draw code. If so, the subdivision is first evaluated on the GPU using our own
custom evaluator (only the coarse data needs to be initially sent to the GPU), then,
buffers for the final `MeshBufferCache` are filled on the GPU using a set of
compute shaders. However, some buffers are still filled on the CPU side, if doing so
on the GPU is impractical (e.g. the line adjacency buffer used for x-ray, whose
logic is hardly GPU compatible).
This is done at the mesh buffer extraction level so that the result can be readily used
in the various OpenGL engines, without having to write custom geometry or tesselation
shaders.
We use our own subdivision evaluation shaders, instead of OpenSubDiv's vanilla one, in
order to control the data layout, and interpolation. For example, we store vertex colors
as compressed 16-bit integers, while OpenSubDiv's default evaluator only work for float
types.
In order to still access the modified geometry on the CPU side, for use in modifiers
or transform operators, a dedicated wrapper type is added `MESH_WRAPPER_TYPE_SUBD`.
Subdivision will be lazily evaluated via `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh` which will
create such a wrapper if possible. If the final subdivision surface is not needed on
the CPU side, `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh_no_subsurf` should be used.
Enabling or disabling GPU subdivision can be done through the user preferences (under
Viewport -> Subdivision).

rB05f900e3466b45a19e13bea6dd641e4f7b8b46e9 removed unused button functions,
but since that commit the `uiDefIconTextButBit()` static function sits
unused as well. It's now been removed.
These were part of the older buttons API that shouldn't be used in
more places at this point. Most layouts should be built with the regular
layout system API and RNA properties. This sort of button can still be
created though, since these were just shortcuts anyway.
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.

The `BKE_animdata_driver_path_hack()` function has had almost no effect
since rB51b796ff1528, and basically boils down to:
```
return base_path ? base_path : RNA_path_from_ID_to_property(ptr, prop);
```
Since `base_path` was `NULL` in the majority of cases, it's just been
replaced by a direct call to `RNA_path_from_ID_to_property()`. The
conditional now just appears in one remaining case.
This relates to T91387.

Toggling node mute doesn't cause node trees to reevaluate after

These pointers point to the new nodes when duplicating,
and their even used to point to "original" nodes for
"localized" trees. They're just a bad design decision
that make code confusing and buggy.
Instead, node copy functions now optionally add to a map
of old to new socket pointers. The case where the compositor
abused these pointers as "original" pointers are handled
by looking up the string node names.

For the header (both Graph Editor case in general `headerTranslation` as
well as `headerTimeTranslate`) we are interested in deltas values
(not absolute values).
Since culprit commit, `snapFrameTransform` was not working with deltas
anymore, but we have to compensate for this.
For the Graph Editor, this only worked "by accident" in rB7192e57d63a5,
since `ival` is still zero at this point.
So now, reacquire the delta right after the snap operation.
Also use a more appropriate center value in the translate operator.

Goals of this refactor:
* More unified approach to updating everything that needs to be updated
after a change in a node tree.
* The updates should happen in the correct order and quadratic or worse
algorithms should be avoided.
* Improve detection of changes to the output to avoid tagging the depsgraph
when it's not necessary.
* Move towards a more declarative style of defining nodes by having a
more centralized update procedure.
The refactor consists of two main parts:
* Node tree tagging and update refactor.
* Generally, when changes are done to a node tree, it is tagged dirty
until a global update function is called that updates everything in
the correct order.
* The tagging is more fine-grained compared to before, to allow for more
precise depsgraph update tagging.
* Depsgraph changes.
* The shading specific depsgraph node for node trees as been removed.
* Instead, there is a new `NTREE_OUTPUT` depsgrap node, which is only
tagged when the output of the node tree changed (e.g. the Group Output
or Material Output node).
* The copy-on-write relation from node trees to the data block they are
embedded in is now non-flushing. This avoids e.g. triggering a material
update after the shader node tree changed in unrelated ways. Instead
the material has a flushing relation to the new `NTREE_OUTPUT` node now.
* The depsgraph no longer reports data block changes through to cycles
through `Depsgraph.updates` when only the node tree changed in ways
that do not affect the output.
Avoiding unnecessary updates seems to work well for geometry nodes and cycles.
The situation is a bit worse when there are drivers on the node tree, but that
could potentially be improved separately in the future.
Avoiding updates in eevee and the compositor is more tricky, but also less urgent.
* Eevee updates are triggered by calling `DRW_notify_view_update` in
`ED_render_view3d_update` indirectly from `DEG_editors_update`.
* Compositor updates are triggered by `ED_node_composite_job` in `node_area_refresh`.
This is triggered by calling `ED_area_tag_refresh` in `node_area_listener`.
Removing updates always has the risk of breaking some dependency that no
one was aware of. It's not unlikely that this will happen here as well. Adding
back missing updates should be quite a bit easier than getting rid of
unnecessary updates though.

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.
