We were showing "search for unknown menutype WM_MT_button_context" messages in terminal which were not helpful for users, so now they are disabled.
To be backported to 2.79
While drawing nice 'rounded' values is OK also for 'low precision'
editing like dragging and such, it's quite an issue when you type in a
precise value, validate, edit again the value, and find a rounded
version of it instead of what you typed in!
So now, *only when entering textedit of num buttons*, we always get the highest
reasonable precision for floats (and use exponential notation when
values are too low or too high, to avoid tremendous amounts of zero's).
Adds a version of template_ID that can be used for non-ID properties.
The property to search for and the collection to search in has to be
passed to it.
Like template_ID it also takes arguments to define a 'new' and 'unlink'
operator. They will be displayed as icon-only buttons then.
Also added a version that can display preview thumbnails.
Had to do some additional changes to make text-buttons support
displaying/modifying empty RNA properties.
This will be needed for workspaces, see D2451.

Hi Guys,
as one of my clients needs the possibility to have custom menu entries in the general right click menu (all over Blender: in the node editor, properties, toolbars,..) I talked with Campbell about expanding our hard coded menu a bit. This is the outcome. As I only need those two, I support currently a button_prop and a button_pointer.

I tested the changes with a custom script where I added a custom entry and executed an operator on click - it seems to work exactly how it's intended to. The script: {F540435}
As I'm not too experienced in rna stuff I would really appreciate any review.
Thanks very much Campbell for his open ears & help on this issue!

NOTE: This is really a backend-only implementation, nothing is changed in the UI
Adds a tab button-type and the basic drawing and handling code for it.
More work needs to be done on it, but idea is to get in ready for usage in the
topbar.

When rendering multi-view in side-by-side or top-bottom mode, we squash
the UI to half of its size and draw it twice on screen. That means the
cursor coordinates used for UI interaction don't match what's visible on
screen.
This commit is a little event system hack (tm) to fix this. It has some
small glitches with cursor grabbing, but nothing to bad.
We'll also use it for viewport HMD support.
D1350, thanks for the feedback @dfelinto!
Adds two buttons to context (RMB) menu of path buttons:
* "Open File Externally" to open a file in an external app (only visible if path contains a filename)
* "Open Location Externally" to open a path in an external file browser
The functionallity for this was already there, just hidden behind Shift/Alt click of file_browse button (folder icon next to path button).
This means editing a property will now always affect all selected objects, bones or sequencer strips. Support for this was added in rBdfbb876d4660 but you had to hold the Alt-key to use it. The old behavior of only editing the active object will not be kept like decided in the 2.8 workflow meeting (reports comming). If you only want to edit the active object, you have to deselect others.
There are still a couple of issues to be resolved (listed below), but having it enabled by default helps testing and getting used to it and should motivate us to fix them ;)
To be fixed:
* Give users hint when edits are applied to all objects/bones/strips ("Applying to x objects") - there are ideas but we need to finalize and implement them
* Make it work better in corner cases (material editing, modifier property editing, etc)
Note: Values usually override the initial value of the object/bones/strips, except of number buttons where it depends if you enter the value (absolute override) or drag the value (add value change). This behavior is consistent with multi-button editing.
Also use the operator as part of the UI keymap now, to deduplicate code and let
users configure a custom shortcut.
