These functions are almost identical, the main difference being
BLI_join_dirfile didn't trim existing slashes when joining paths
however this isn't an important difference that warrants a separate
function.
Removes the following macros for scene/render frame values:
- `CFRA`
- `SUBFRA`
- `SFRA`
- `EFRA`
These macros don't add much, other than saving a few characters when typing.
It's not immediately clear what they refer to, they just hide what they
actually access. Just be explicit and clear about that.
Plus these macros gave read and write access to the variables, so eyesores like
this would be done (eyesore because it looks like assigning to a constant):
```
CFRA = some_frame_nbr;
```

Patch implements better way to control playback speed than it is
possible to do with speed effect. Speed factor property can be set in
Time panel.
There are 2 layers of control:
Option to retime movie to match scene FPS rate.
Custom speed factor to control playback rate.
Since playback rate is strip property, it is now possible to manipulate
strip as normal one even if it is retimed.
To facilitate manipulation, some functions need to consider speed factor
and apply necessary corrections to strip offset or strip start. These
corrections may need to be float numbers, so start and offsets must be
float as well.
Sound strips now use speed factor instead of pitch. This means, that
strips will change length to match usable length. In addition, it is
possible to group movie and sound strip and change speed of meta strip.
Function `SEQ_transform_seqbase_shuffle_time` did not have access to
strip effects, and therefore could not handle their animation. Since
now transformation knows what strips can't be directly moved, but their
position depends on other strips, this collection of strips is passed as
argument, so animation can be offset correctly.
This patch makes it possible to manipulate strips without need to use
update functions to recalculate effect and meta strips.
Prior to this change function `SEQ_time_update_sequence` had to be used
to update mainly effects and meta strips. This was implemented in a way
that relied on sorted list of strips, which can't always be done and in
rare cases this approach failed.
In case of meta strips, `seqbase` had to be passed and compared with
"active" one to determine whether meta strip should be updated or not.
This is especially weak system that is prone to bugs when functions are
used by python API functions.
Finally, other strip types had startdisp` and `enddisp` fields updated
by this function and a lot of code relied on these fields even if strip
start, length and offsets are available. This is completely
unnecessary.
Implemented changes:
All effects and meta strips are updated when strip handles are moved or
strip is translated, without need to call any update function.
Function `SEQ_time_update_sequence` has been split to
`SEQ_time_update_meta_strip_range` and
`seq_time_update_effects_strip_range`. These functions should be only
used within sequencer module code. Meta update is used for versioning,
which is only reason for it not being declared internally.
Sequence fields `startdisp` and `enddisp` are now only used for
effects to store strip start and end points. These fields should be
used only internally within sequencer module code.
Use function `SEQ_time_*_handle_frame_get` to get strip start and end
points.
To update effects and meta strips with reasonable performance, cache
for "parent" meta strip and attached effects is added to
`SequenceLookup` cache, so it shares invalidation mechanisms.
All caches are populated during single iteration.
There should be no functional changes.

Ref D14069
Strip aligning wasn't done when length of 2 strip is equal, but since
these strips are aligned according to position in stream this can
produce offset.
Currently, audio and video strips are synchronized based on data from
media stream, which is nice, but this causes gaps between strips.
This synchronization was implemented by moving movie strip position
relative to sound, which doesn't make much sense for user which is
mostly interested in editing video.
Code was bit hard to read, so it has been simplified. Ideally video
stream time would be easily accessible so synchronization could be done
at any time, but this is not necessary at this point.

This change applies only for automatic proxy building, when strip
is added to timeline. Manual building process is not affected.
Don't build proxy file if movie is already fast enough to seek.
To determine seek performance, check if whole GOP can be decoded
in 100 milliseconds.
To consider some variation in GOP size, large number of packets are
read, assuming that each packet will produce 1 frame. While this is not
technically correct, it does give quite accurate estimate of maximum GOP
size.
This test will ensure consistent performance on wide array of machines.
Check should be done in order of few milliseconds.

Some when adding multiple movies at once and only some of them have
audio track, this causes crash on NULL dereference. Issue was introduced
in bdbc7e12a0 to align sound and video properly.
Check if sound is present in movie file. If it's not, don't try to align
sound with video.
`SequencesMeta.new_movie()` API function caused meta strip to change
length. Similar issue has been fixed in transform code by checking
if `MetaStack` exists. `MetaStack` is not used when changing data in
python.
Provide `seqbase` to `SEQ_time_update_sequence()` so the function can
check if change happens inside of meta strip.
This patch also merges `seq_time_update_sequence_bounds()` into
`SEQ_time_update_sequence()`. This is because same issue applies for
both functions and it is confusing to have more time update
functions.re if this will lead anywhere.

On the blender side this commit fixes importing video files with audio
and video streams that do not share the same start time and duration.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D12353
The duration and start time for audio strips were not correctly read in
audaspace.
Some video files have a "lead in" section of audio that plays before the
video starts playing back. Before this patch, we would play this lead in
audio at the same time as the video started and thus the audio would not
be in sync anymore.
Now the lead in audio is cut off and the duration should be correctly
calculated with this in mind.
If the audio starts after the video, the audio strip is shifted to
account for this, but it will also lead to cut off audio which might not
be wanted. However we don't have a simple way to solve this at this
point.

When adding images with operator, image file path is split into filename
and directory passed to load function in name and path fields of
SeqLoadData struct. This is because when loading images directory
and filenames are split.
RNA API function passes whole path in path filed.
Apart from loading API inconsistency, this causes initial image loading
to fail, so strip resolution is not set. Also name field of SeqLoadData
should be reserved for strip name.
Let operator code concatenate and split filepath when needed so loading
API can be consistent with RNA API and also between strip types.
