These are generally only one or two word phrases and are not sentences.
This change slightly improves readability.
Note, the check when display labels:
```
Tip Label (only for buttons not already showing the label).
```
Could be improved here because there are a lot of false positives.
Corrects incorrect usage of contraction for 'it is', when possessive 'its' was required.

We have our own assert implementation, `BLI_assert()` that is prefered over the
C standard library one. Its output is more consistent across compilers and
makes termination on assert failure optional (through `WITH_ASSERT_ABORT`).
In many places we'd include the C library header without ever accessing it.
- Use WM_operatortype_description to get the operator description.
- Pass properties to WM_operatortype_name,
so the operator name callback is used.
- Add UI_but_operatortype_get_from_enum_menu function
to access the operator from enum menus.
- Change WM_operatortype_description to return NULL when there is no
description, use WM_operatortype_description_or_name
when either can be used.
This commit renames 'execute' to 'run' because:
- This follows Python's "PyRun" which these functions wrap.
- Execution functions can use either exec/eval modes,
making naming awkward (for future API refactoring).
The abbreviation 'init' is brief, unambiguous and already used
in thousands of places, also initialize is often accidentally
written with British spelling.
Showing the Python error without any explanation is often
not enough information and doesn't hint that the error was in the
user input.
The error report from a invalid expression such as '..1' used to be:
('invalid syntax', ('<string>', 1, 1, '..1'))
Now reads:
Error evaluating number, see Info editor for details: invalid syntax
Address issue raised by T78913.
This addresses warnings from Clang-Tidy's `readability-else-after-return`
rule in the `source/blender/editors/interface` module.
No functional changes.
Note this only changes cases where the variable was declared inside
the for loop. To handle it outside as well is a different challenge.

Follow up of b2ee1770d4 and 10c2254d41, part of T74432.
Now the area and region naming conventions should be less confusing.
Mostly a careful batch rename but had to do few smaller fixes.
Also ran clang-format on affected files.
The old convention was easy to confuse with ScrArea.
Part of https://developer.blender.org/T74432.
This is mostly a batch rename with some manual fixing. Only single word
variable names are changed, no prefixed/suffixed names.
Brecht van Lommel and Campbell Barton both gave me a green light for
this convention change.
Also ran clan clang format on affected files.
This function is a very special refresh function just for floating
regions. _initialize is more consistent with ED_area_initialize() so use
that too.
Also adds assert.
Blender UI Layout API allows supplying parameters to operators via
button definitions. If an operator behavior strongly depends on its
parameters, it may be difficult to write a tooltip that covers all
of its operation modes. Thus it is useful to provide a way for the
operator to produce different descriptions based on the input info.

NodeTree structures of materials and some other data blocks are
effectively node group datablock objects that are contained inside
the parent block. Thus, direct references to them are only valid
while blender is running, and are lost on save.
Fix Copy As New Driver to create a reference that goes through
the owner datablock, by adding a new ID flag to mark private
pseudo-datablocks.
Also fix functions that return full paths to structures and
properties, e.g. used in python tooltips. Functions for paths
from ID to struct or property can't be changed because of
Animation Data related code.

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.

Very annoying that this whole UI thingy uses its own cooking... This is
more a quick-slap fix than a proper solution, would expect it to work in
nearly all cases though...
When button text doesn't already show the label,
include the label in the tool-tip.
Without this the descriptions for icon-only buttons
don't always make sense.
This also gives a tool-tip for icon-only popovers.
Cheap tip: anything that is not "Camel Case" and/or that is more than
a few words long should use `TIP_` translation, not `IFACE_` one.
Also added several missing strings (including the one reported in D5056
by Jean First (@robbott), thanks).
Minor changes to recent gizmo click/drag logic 08dff7b40b
Changing the gizmos highlighted part in the invoke_prepare
callback is too error prone since it needs to run
before it's known which operator will execute.
Add back 'drag_part', since it simplifies click-drag use.
While this isn't essential with custom keymaps per gizmo
it avoids having to define a keymap in the case a drag
event needs a different action.
Remove click-drag support for tweak gizmo,
rely on keymap events instead.
This is needed for some gizmos to use modifiers keys
without having all gizmos use all modifier keys (see: T63996).
Prepare for exposing tool registration to the Python API.
- Generated tools can use their own prefix so naming collisions
won't happen between hard coded & generated tools.
- Add-on authors can use the add-on name as a prefix.
Currently the names match, renaming will happen next.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
Word wrap and alignment layout args only used by UI_fontstyle_draw
were vars in uiFontStyle.
These were written to before drawing, so better pass as an argument.
Pass uiFontStyle & uiWidgetColors as const args.
