Now, it was possible to invert the order of the UIlist using the filter, but it was impossible to know if the list was inverted or not.
The problem with this is that any other element depending of this value could not be adjusted.
See https://devtalk.blender.org/t/how-to-access-uilist-properties/2268
The new parameter allows to set the reverse order by default. When the list is set as reverse, it cannot be inverted again, so the invert button is removed of the filter.
This change is needed to fix a requested feature for Grease Pencil (T56985) and because a lot of 2D softwares use the drawing layers in the inverse order used in Blender.
- new "Align to View" option when loading a new image
- automatically align to view when dropping an image into a viewport
- larger default size for image empties
- fix image empty gizmo in orthographic view
- new "Align Objects to View" operator

For now we have categories collection, object, object data, modifiers &
constraints, and shading. The icons can be categorized by adding e.g.
DEF_ICON_OBJECT() in UI_icons.h.
Light themes will need to be updated to use darker colors to keep icons
visible in the outliner.
The rest shape of B-Bones is actually affected by custom handles or
the default connected parent/child mechanism. Ignoring these effects
thus leads to the edit mode shape being different from the actual
rest pose.
This splits the b_bone_spline_setup function that is used to compute
the correct rest and pose shape from pose channels into two parts,
and applies the data structure independent half to edit mode.
In order to access the custom handle settings in Edit Mode, they are
moved to Bone and EditBone, while the bPoseChannel fields are downgraded
in status to a cache for performance. Also, instead of flags, introduce
an enum to specify the handle operation modes, so that new ones could
be added later.

Custom handle settings actually affect the B-Bone rest shape,
so they should be changed in Edit mode rather than Pose mode.
This is necessary to be able to display the correct rest shape
of the bone in Edit Mode.
Also, instead of flags, introduce an enum to specify the handle
operation modes, so that new ones could be added later.

Users can select the main unit they want to use now.
Previously the displayed unit always depended on the magnitude of the value.
The old behavior can be restored by switching to the "Adaptive" mode for length, mass and time units.
Meters, kilograms and seconds are the default units for new and old scenes.
The selected unit is also the default unit for user input.
E.g. if cm is selected, whenever the user inputs a unitless number into a field of type length, it will be interpreted as cm.

I had to make the viewport navigation icons a bit smaller in the SVG since
the edges were being clipped off, we only support 16x16 icons currently.
They are a bit blurry because of this.
This commit make the Xray option for the wireframe different from the other
shading mode. This makes it possible to rapidly switch between wireframe +
Xray and Solid mode without Xray.
Xray alpha is also decoupled.
Both variables are duplicated and exposed separately through RNA.
We now treat Xray as being the mode where Limit selection to visible is off.
If Xray is OFF, Limit selection to visible is considered ON.
To allow 'see through wires' with solid shading (not Xray shading) we still
draw solid shading if Xray is ON with Xray Alpha set to 1.0.
- Pass in the snap distance
(to avoid comparisons in the multi-object version).
- Loop directly over BMLoop's (without using the iterator).
- Use squared distance instead of manhattan.
The first time setup screen only has the interaction preset currently, some
more work is needed to be able to set e.g. the language or compute device
here as in the mockups.
The splash screen stayed the same for now, to make room for the templates
most of the links are now in the Help menu. If there are no recent files yet
the links still show.
The splash screen buttons implementation was fully moved to Python, in the
WM_MT_splash menu.
The goal here is to make app templates usable for default templates
that we can ship with Blender. These only have a custom startup.blend
currently and so are quite limited compared to app templates that fully
customize Blender.
But still it seems like the same kind of concept where we should be
sharing the code and UI. It is useful to be able to save a startup.blend
per template, and I can imagine some scripting being useful in the future
as well.
Changes made:
* File > New and Ctrl+N now list the templates, replacing a separate
Application Templates menu that was not as easy to discover.
* File menu now shows name of active template above Save Startup File
and Load Factory Settings to indicate these are saved/loaded per
template.
* The "Default" template was renamed to "General".
* Workspaces can now be added from any of the template startup.blend
files when clicking the (+) button in the topbar.
* User preferences are now fully shared between app templates, unless
the template includes a custom userpref.blend. I think this will be
useful in general, not all app templates need their own keymaps for
example.
* Previously Save User Preferences would save the current app template
and then Blender would start using that template by default. I've
disabled this, to me it seems it was unintentional, or at least not
clear at all that saving user preferences also makes the current

Was using UI_BLOCK_LOOP to control draw style,
this meant we couldn't use popup theme colors for cases
where it the interface has the same purpose as a popup but happens
not to use this flag.
