When enabled prefetching(preview panel>view settings), a pernament running job
is created, that will render frames in the background until the cache is full.
If the cache is not filled fast enough, prefetch job suspends itself
at the last moment and will wait until it has chance to "catch up".
Effectively this will decouple rendering to separate thread, so rendering
itself is a bit faster.
Cache recycling behavior will be changed to "free furthest frame to the left
of playhead if possible, otherwise rightmost frame".

The old layout of `PointerRNA` was confusing for historic reasons:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct {
void *data;
} id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
This patch updates it to:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct ID *owner_id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
Throughout the code base `id.data` was replaced with `owner_id`.
Furthermore, many explicit pointer type casts were added which
were implicit before. Some type casts to `ID *` were removed.

- Expose the operator in the panel,
(wasn't available in the UI at all).
- Offset frame was hard coded to a color matching the background.
Use the current frame color with dashes instead.
- Overlay toggle had wrong name.
followup to rB8dd95abb2ff9 (which fixed this for the Compositor node),
turns out this was also wrong for the VSE modifier and in vertex color
operator.
- also adjust min/max for VSE modifier
- also guard against division by zero

- Move strip name to the top (easier to see which strip you are adjusting, and more consistent with other areas)
- Move Mute next to this, since it affects everything, both audio and video, and completely disables the clip
- Mute now greys out all the Strip panels, since none of them apply if the strip is disabled
- Rename Info to Time, since now this panel only includes timecodes and related controls
- Move Lock to the Time header, since you are locking the time controls
- Move clip resolution to Source, since it's not related to time
Even though we are in UI freeze, we agreed that this should be better, and so we are changing a few things:
- Clearer separation of controls that affect the image transform vs the video
- New Transform panel houses Flip X/Y, Offset and Crop
- Flip X/Y now uses toggle buttons like we do for mirroring elsewhere (clearer + takes up less space)
- Video panel only includes things that relate to playback, ie Playback Direction, Strobe etc.
- Backwards/Forwards playback is now an enum rather than a toggle (we should always use enums when it's not an on/off switch)
- Rename Input panel to Source
- Just more immediately understandable and correct
- Move Deinterlace here since it's source file dependent
- Move Source panel to be a top level panel
- Merge Info and Timecodes panels
- Move Lock toggle to Info panel (was previously attached to name field which made no sense whatsoever)
- Name field now uses full width and doesn't add redundant text in front of it
- Re-arrange tabs to be Strip, Modifiers, Proxy & Cache, View
- Strip and Modifiers should be together

A lot of areas were querying sound information directly using audio handle
which does not exist on an original sound IDs.
This change basically makes it so it's possible to query information about
given sound ID, without worrying about whether it's loaded or not: if it is
needed to load it first it happens automatically (no automatically-opened
handles are left behind though).
While this seems a bit extreme to open files on such queries it is still
better than the old situation when all sound handles were opened on file
load, no matter if it's needed or not. Besides, none of the changed code
paths are performance critical, just handful of tools.

This change makes it so sound handles are created for evaluated scene,
sequencer and speakers. This allows to have properly evaluated animation
on them.
For the viewport playback sound uses regular dependency graph.
For the final render sound uses dependency graph created for render pipeline,
which now also contains sequencer and sound datablocks.
All the direct sound update calls are replaced with corresponding dependency
graph recalc tag.
The goal is to prevent assignment of temporary or evaluated meshes
to objects from the main database.
Majority of the change is actually related on passing reports around.
On a positive side there are more error prints which can become more
visible to scripters.
There are still possible further improvements in the related areas.
For example, disable user counting for evaluated ID datablocks when
assignment happens. But can also happen later on as a separate
improvement.

- Use single column layout
- Move the rather obscure Backdrop toggle into the View menu
- Use correct units for Crop and Offset (pixels)
- Re-organize the sidebar in 2 main groups: Adjust & Info
Adjust includes Compositing, Offset, Crop, Video, Color, Sound
Info includes strip name, path, start/end and other data

This happened to be a bigger rabbit hole to hell than it originally seemed,
and there are higher priority design tasks to be handled (at this point high
priority design task is more important than high priority bug fix).
After talking to Brecht the decision was made to revert to the known isolated
issue, which will allow everyone in the studio work same as prior to last
Friday.
The remaining bits will be worked on after all the design tasks are out of
the way.

Mainly covers RNA callbacks which were still doing direct scene update,
which was causing crashes. Now corresponding ID_RECALC flags are used,
so all scenes can update accordingly.
Also tested animated volume/pitch on strips, which now works as well.

This patch implements new cache system.
Aim is to give user more control over cache, so it can be maximally
utilized. This is done through sequencer timeline side panel
in category proxy & cache.
Cached images are also visualized in timeline, controled by
sequencer timeline view->cache menu
Functional changes:
- NOT use IMB_moviecache API
- refactor names of cached image types
- each scene owns 1 sequencer cache
- merge preprocess cache into per-sequencer cache
- cache links images rendered per frame in order as they are created
- add cache content visualization tool
- add RNA properties to control the cache

- Many factor properties were set to PROP_NONE,
even properties that had 'Factor' in the name!
- Some time properties were not set to PROP_TIME,
especially in Particles.
- Changed motion_blur_shutter to use a soft max value of 1 instead of 2.
Anything > 1 here is not physically correct
and makes no real logical sense.
- Changed display name of Dynamic Paint dissolve_speed to Dissolve Time,
since it's a time property, not speed.
