Displaying the labels tip immediately feels too intrusive,
make this work more like regular tooltips, displaying more quickly.
Tooltips can now uses multiple passes, each pass with it's own delay
for the next pass to show.
Without this, there was no simple way to have
launchers for different app-templates.
Also allows force-disabling the app-template stored in the preferences.
Add tool options to control how select operates (add/sub/set/and/xor).
Note: edit mode armature select still needs to support all options,
this is complicated by how it handles partial end-point selection.
Currently drop operators work mostly by specifying the name of the datablock.
However there can be datablocks with the same name in different libraries, so
this gives wrong results in some cases.
Currently only outliner drop operators have been updated to use this mechanism.
This separate probe rendering from viewport rendering, making possible to
run the baking in another thread (non blocking and faster).
The baked lighting is saved in the blend file. Nothing needs to be
recomputed on load.
There is a few missing bits / bugs:
- Cache cannot be saved to disk as a separate file, it is saved in the DNA
for now making file larger and memory usage higher.
- Auto update only cubemaps does update the grids (bug).
- Probes cannot be updated individually (considered as dynamic).
- Light Cache cannot be (re)generated during render.
It was a bit odd that the scene was stored per window but not the view
layer. The reasoning was that you would use different view layers for
different tasks. This is still possible, but it's more predictable to
switch them both explicitly, and with child window support manually
syncing the view layers between multiple windows is no longer needed
as often.
* Main windows show a topbar and statusbar, and select a workspace and
scene. They are created with Window > New Main Window.
* Child windows do not show a topbar or statusbar. These follow the
workspace and scene of their parent main window. Created with Window >
New Window or View > Duplicate Area into New Window.
* The purpose of this change is to support multi monitor setups where you
just want to put more editors on the other monitors. Without multiple
topbars and statusbars, working within a single workspace and scene.
Creating multiple main windows is intended to be a concious choice to
do different tasks in different workspaces and scenes.
* Note these changes do not currently affect how the operating system
treats the windows.
* When changing the workspace, the layout in all child windows changes.
This makes sense if we consider child windows to be just a way to
extend the main window across more monitors. In some case it may be
useful to keep the same layout though, we can add an option for this
depending on user feedback.
* Add horizontal bar at bottom of all non-temp windows, similar to the Top-bar.
* Status-bar is hidden in UI-less fullscreen mode
* Current contents are preliminary and based on T54861:
** Left: Current file-path if needed. "(Modified)" note if file was changed.
** Center: Scene statistics (like in 2.7 Info Editor).
** Right: Progress-bars and reports
* Internally managed as own "STATUSBAR" editor-type (hidden in UI).
* Like with the Top-bar, Status-bar data and SDNA writing is disabled.
* Most changes in low-level screen/area code are to support layout bounds that differ from window bounds.

This commit adds an operator, "Show Drivers Editor", to the RMB menu when
clicking on properties.
As per T54653, this will open a new Graph Editor instance in a new/separate
window (much like how the User Preferences show up in a popup window now),
and will configure all the relevant panels so that you can see and edit the
driver settings immediately without doing a lot of the view configuration steps
that were previously needed.
When doing so on a property that is driven, the driver/fcurve for that property
will be made active in the editor, ready for you to start editing its settings
without having to hunt it down again first.
Without this we need to have the context to get the
(space_type, mode) args for an active tool lookup.
For event handling & poll its more convenient to have direct access.
