The reported backtrace in T102766 strongly points at some
concurrency issues within exisitng liboverride diffing code that
restores forbidden changes to reference linked data values.
This commit instead add tags to mark liboverrides/properties that need
to be restored, and do so in a separate new step of diffing, from the
main thread only.
Propagate `eRNAOverrideMatchResult` 'return' flags at higher level into
BKE API, instead of just returning a boolean true when new override
rules have been created.
NOTE: This is an intermediary step towards fixing T102766.

Invalidate depsgraph.object_instances when freed, this resolves a crash

Unlike most other collections, object_instances is only valid while the
iterator is in-memory.
The Python/RNA API needs to inline int/string collection lookups so the

NOTE: This is committed to the 3.3 branch as part of D15606, which we
decided should go to this release still (by Bastien, Dalai and me). That
is because these are important usability fixes/improvements to have for
the LTS release.
Adds `rna_path.cc` and `RNA_path.h`.
`rna_access.c` is a quite big file, which makes it rather hard and
inconvenient to navigate. RNA path functions form a nicely coherent unit
that can stand well on it's own, so it makes sense to split them off to
mitigate the problem. Moreover, I was looking into refactoring the quite
convoluted/overloaded `rna_path_parse()`, and found that some C++
features may help greatly with that. So having that code compile in C++
would be helpful to attempt that.

Usefull to easily trim away the 'aray index' part of an RNA path, e.g.
when searching for an FCurve (which never contains that index part in
its RNA path).
From reading the code it looks like at some point the code was expecting
the `tptr` PointerRNA to change during the loop? But currently it did
not make any sense to have this complex looping and multi-checking of
RNA path and animdata, since the RNA pointer (and therefore its
`owner_id`) is never modified...
NOTE: there could be much more cleanup done in that area, goal of this
commit is mainly to simplify the logic by removing all the (seamingly)

Currently strings are used for cases where a list of identifiers would
be useful to show.
Add support for string properties to reference a callback to populate
candidates to show when editing a string. The user isn't prevented from
typing in text not found in this list, it's just useful as a reference.
Support for expanding the following strings has been added:
- Operator, menu & panel identifiers in the keymap editor.
- WM operators that reference data-paths expand using the
Python-consoles auto-complete functionality.
- Names of keying sets for insert/delete keyframe operators.
Details:
- `bpy.props.StringProperty` takes an option `search` callback.
- A new string callback has been added, set via
`RNA_def_property_string_search_func` or
`RNA_def_property_string_search_func_runtime`.
- Addresses usability issue highlighted by T89560,
where setting keying set identifiers as strings isn't practical.
- Showing additional right-aligned text in the search results is
supported but disabled by default as the text is too cramped in most
string search popups where the feature would make sense. It could be
enabled as part of other layout tweaks.

`RNA_path_struct_property_py` cannot get const `ptr` parameter for now
(usage of `RNA_struct_find_property`).
Also make `RNA_path_resolve_` functions take a const PointerRNA

This commit makes PointerRNA passed to RNA path API const.
Main change was in the `path` callback for RNA structs, and indirectly
the `getlength` callback of properties.
So far it was needed to declare a new RNA struct to `RNA_access.h` manually.
Since 9b298cf3db we generate a `RNA_prototypes.h` for RNA property
declarations. Now this also includes the RNA struct declarations, so they don't

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.

This commit adds infrastructure for 8 bit signed integer attributes.
This can be useful given the discussion in T94193, where we want to
store spline type, Bezier handle type, and other small enums as
attributes.
This is only exposed in the interface in the attribute lists, so it
shouldn't be an option in geometry nodes, at least for now.
I expect that this type won't be used directly very often, it
should mostly be cast to an enum type. However, with support
for 8 bit integers, it also makes sense to add things like mixing

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 patch implements the vector types (i.e:`float2`) by making heavy
usage of templating. All vector functions are now outside of the vector
classes (inside the `blender::math` namespace) and are not vector size
dependent for the most part.
In the ongoing effort to make shaders less GL centric, we are aiming
to share more code between GLSL and C++ to avoid code duplication.
####Motivations:
- We are aiming to share UBO and SSBO structures between GLSL and C++.
This means we will use many of the existing vector types and others
we currently don't have (uintX, intX). All these variations were
asking for many more code duplication.
- Deduplicate existing code which is duplicated for each vector size.
- We also want to share small functions. Which means that vector
functions should be static and not in the class namespace.
- Reduce friction to use these types in new projects due to their
incompleteness.
- The current state of the `BLI_(float|double|mpq)(2|3|4).hh` is a
bit of a let down. Most clases are incomplete, out of sync with each
others with different codestyles, and some functions that should be
static are not (i.e: `float3::reflect()`).
####Upsides:
- Still support `.x, .y, .z, .w` for readability.
- Compact, readable and easilly extendable.
- All of the vector functions are available for all the vectors types
and can be restricted to certain types. Also template specialization
let us define exception for special class (like mpq).
- With optimization ON, the compiler unroll the loops and performance
is the same.
####Downsides:
- Might impact debugability. Though I would arge that the bugs are
rarelly caused by the vector class itself (since the operations are
quite trivial) but by the type conversions.
- Might impact compile time. I did not saw a significant impact since
the usage is not really widespread.
- Functions needs to be rewritten to support arbitrary vector length.
For instance, one can't call `len_squared_v3v3` in
`math::length_squared()` and call it a day.
- Type cast does not work with the template version of the `math::`
vector functions. Meaning you need to manually cast `float *` and
`(float *)[3]` to `float3` for the function calls.
i.e: `math::distance_squared(float3(nearest.co), positions[i]);`
- Some parts might loose in readability:
`float3::dot(v1.normalized(), v2.normalized())`
becoming
`math::dot(math::normalize(v1), math::normalize(v2))`
But I propose, when appropriate, to use
`using namespace blender::math;` on function local or file scope to
increase readability.
`dot(normalize(v1), normalize(v2))`
####Consideration:
- Include back `.length()` method. It is quite handy and is more C++
oriented.
- I considered the GLM library as a candidate for replacement. It felt
like too much for what we need and would be difficult to extend / modify
to our needs.
- I used Macros to reduce code in operators declaration and potential
copy paste bugs. This could reduce debugability and could be reverted.
- This touches `delaunay_2d.cc` and the intersection code. I would like
to know @howardt opinion on the matter.
- The `noexcept` on the copy constructor of `mpq(2|3)` is being removed.

Only append RNA_path_from_ID_to_struct to context attributes if those
paths resolve to ID types.
Also simplify creating RNA paths by adding utility functions:
- WM_context_path_resolve_property_full
- WM_context_path_resolve_full
Part of fix for T90723.
The storage of IDProperty UI data (min, max, default value, etc) is
quite complicated. For every property, retrieving a single one of these
values involves three string lookups. First for the "_RNA_UI" group
property, then another for a group with the property's name, then for
the data value name. Not only is this inefficient, it's hard to reason
about, unintuitive, and not at all self-explanatory.
This commit replaces that system with a UI data struct directly in the
IDProperty. If it's not used, the only cost is of a NULL pointer. Beyond
storing the description, name, and RNA subtype, derived structs are used
to store type specific UI data like min and max.
Note that this means that addons using (abusing) the `_RNA_UI` custom
property will have to be changed. A few places in the addons repository
will be changed after this commit with D9919.
**Before**
Before, first the _RNA_UI subgroup is retrieved the _RNA_UI group,
then the subgroup for the original property, then specific UI data
is accessed like any other IDProperty.
```
prop = rna_idprop_ui_prop_get(idproperties_owner, "prop_name", create=True)
prop["min"] = 1.0
```
**After**
After, the `id_properties_ui` function for RNA structs returns a python
object specifically for managing an IDProperty's UI data.
```
ui_data = idproperties_owner.id_properties_ui("prop_name")
ui_data.update(min=1.0)
```
In addition to `update`, there are now other functions:
- `as_dict`: Returns a dictionary of the property's UI data.
- `clear`: Removes the property's UI data.
- `update_from`: Copy UI data between properties,
even if they have different owners.

With temporary I mean that this is not intended to be part of the
eventual asset system design. For that we are planning to have an
`AssetRepresentation` instead, see T87235. Once the `AssetList` is
implemented (see T88184), that would be the owner of the asset
representations.
However for the upcoming asset system, asset browser, asset view and
pose library commits we need some kind of asset handle to pass around.
That is what this commit introduces.
Idea is a handle to wrap the `FileDirEntry` representing the asset, and
an API to access its data (currently very small, will be extended in
further commits). So the fact that an asset is currently a file
internally is abstracted away. However: We have to expose it as file in
the Python API, because we can't return the asset-handle directly there,
for reasons explained in the code. So the active asset file is exposed
as `bpy.context.asset_file_handle`.
This per-workspace active asset library will be used by the asset views
later. Note that Asset Browsers have their own active asset library,
overriding the one from the workspace.
As part of this the `FileSelectAssetLibraryUID` type gets replaced by
`AssetLibraryReference` which is on the asset level now, not the
File/Asset Browser level. But some more work is needed to complete that,
which is better done in a separate commit.
This also moves the asset library from/to enum-value logic from RNA to
the editor asset level, which will later be used by the asset view.
This adds id_properties_clear() and id_properties_ensure() functions
to RNA structs. This is meant as an initial change based on discussion
in review of D9697. However, they may be useful in other situations.
The change requires refactoring the internal idproperties callback to
return a pointer to the IDProperty pointer, which actually turns out
to be quite a nice cleanup.
An id_properties attribute could be added in the future potentially.

The menu lists all socket types that are valid for the node tree.
Changing a socket type updates all instances of the group and keeps
existing links to the socket.
If changing the socket type leads to incorrect node connections the
links are flagged as invalid (red) and ignored but not removed. This is
so users don't lose information and can then fix resulting issues.
For example: Changing a Color socket to a Shader socket can cause an
invalid Shader-to-Color connection.
Implementation details:
The new `NODE_OT_tree_socket_change_type` operator uses the generic
`rna_node_socket_type_itemf` function to list all eligible socket types.
It uses the tree type's `valid_socket_type` callback to test for valid
types. In addition it also checks the subtype, because multiple RNA
types are registered for the same base type. The `valid_socket_type`
callback has been modified slightly to accept full socket types instead
of just the base type enum, so that custom (python) socket types can be
used by this operator.
The `nodeModifySocketType` function is now called when group nodes
encounter a socket type mismatch, instead of replacing the socket
entirely. This ensures that links are kept to/from group nodes as well
as group input/output nodes. The `nodeModifySocketType` function now
also takes a full `bNodeSocketType` instead of just the base and subtype
enum (a shortcut `nodeModifySocketTypeStatic` exists for when only
static types are used).

To make a slider have a different scale type use following line in RNA:
`RNA_def_property_ui_scale_type(prop, PROP_SCALE_LOGARITHMIC);`
or:
`RNA_def_property_ui_scale_type(prop, PROP_SCALE_CUBIC);`

This introduces a context path to the spreadsheet editor, which contains
information about what data is shown in the spreadsheet. The context
path (breadcrumbs) can reference a specific node in a node group
hierarchy. During object evaluation, the geometry nodes modifier checks
what data is currently requested by visible spreadsheets and stores
the corresponding geometry sets separately for later access.
The context path can be updated by the user explicitely, by clicking
on the new icon in the header of nodes. Under some circumstances,
the context path is updated automatically based on Blender's context.
This patch also consolidates the "Node" and "Final" object evaluation
mode to just "Evaluated". Based on the current context path, either
the final geometry set of an object will be displayed, or the data at
a specific node.
The new preview icon in geometry nodes now behaves more like
a toggle. It can be clicked again to clear the context path in an
open spreadsheet editor.
Previously, only an object could be pinned in the spreadsheet editor.
Now it is possible to pin the entire context path. That allows two
different spreadsheets to display geometry data from two different
nodes.
The breadcrumbs in the spreadsheet header can be collapsed by
clicking on the arrow icons. It's not ideal but works well for now.
This might be changed again, if we get a data set region on the left.
