When using "Mark as Asset" the second time on an object (after having
done a "Mark as Asset" and then a "Clear Asset"), the old preview would
be re-used, even if the object was changed meanwhile. This is a bit of a
papercut, so always force previews to be re-rendered on "Mark as Asset".
The drag and drop feature of objects in 3D View has been modified to include:
- Snap the object being dragged.
- Visual feedback through a box and the placement tool grid.

Updates UI code so that we can enable the asset UI for specific data-block
types by default, i.e. irrespective of the "Extended Asset Browser"
experimental feature.
"Mark as Asset" and "Clear Asset" are always visible in the Outliner context
menu now, but are grayed out if not applicable and show a disabled hint in the
tooltip.
A known side-effect of this: The "Mark as Asset" and "Clear Asset" operators
are enabled for action data-blocks now, even though only pose actions created
through the Pose Libraries add-on are supported. If this is something worth
addressing is being discussed still.

When using `asset_mark` function from a Python script and afterwards
updating the preview image, a crash might happen. The preview image is
generated by the `asset_mark` function. This may happen on a background
thread, introducing potential synchronization issues.
This patch fixes this by separating the preview generation
`ID.asset_generate_preview` from the mark as asset `ID.asset_mark`.
Note: this separation of "mark as asset" and "generate preview" also
applies to the `ED_asset_mark_id()` C function; if it is desired to have
previews rendered after marking as asset, a call to
`ED_asset_generate_preview()` is now also required.

The Clear Asset operator (`ASSET_OT_clear`) now clears the Fake User.
This makes it symmetrical with the Mark Asset (`ASSET_OT_mark`)
operator, which sets Fake User to ensure assets are always saved to
disk.
Clear Asset now also has a `set_fake_user` boolean option, which allows
users to Clear Asset and set Fake User in one go.
The asset browser now shows these options in the context menu:
- Clear Asset: also clears Fake User. This makes it possible to actually
remove assets from the blend file without leaving the Asset Browser.
- Clear Asset (Set Fake User): keeps the Fake User bit set. This makes
it possible to "hide" the asset from the asset browser, without
loosing the actual data.
Internally, the `ED_asset_clear_id(id)` function now always clears the
Fake User bit. If it was intended that this bit was kept set, it's up to
the caller to explicitly call `id_fake_user_set(id)` afterwards.

I'm trying to move away from general files with lots of things in them,
and instead have many small & focused files. I find that easier to
work with since everything has clear responsibilities, even if there is
some minor overhead in managing all these files.
I also try to differentiate more clearly between public and internal
files. So source files and internal headers are in a `intern/`
sub-directory, public functions are in a number of headers one level
higher.
For convenience and to make this compatible with our existing general
headers in `editors/include`, I made the `ED_asset.h` there include all
these public headers.
This is of course a bit of an experiment, let's see how it works in
practice.
Also corrected the name of `ED_asset_can_make_single_from_context()`.
