UI panel may suggest, that disabling "Proxy & timecode" would cause
timecodes not being used, but this was not the case. Now timecodes will
be used only if the checkbox is checked.
These functions are almost identical, the main difference being
BLI_join_dirfile didn't trim existing slashes when joining paths
however this isn't an important difference that warrants a separate
function.
Add function `SEQ_time_content_end_frame_get` to get content end frame.
New function is shorthand for
`SEQ_time_start_frame_get() + SEQ_time_strip_length_get()`.
Correction of U.dpi to hold actual monitor DPI. Simplify font sizing by
omitting DPI as API argument, always using 72 internally.

Caused by clamping handle translation to strip bounds in functions
`SEQ_time_*_handle_frame_set()` to prevent strip ending in invalid
state. Issue happens when meta strip is moved so quickly, such that
immediate offset is greater than strip length.
Currently meta strip bounds are updated when any contained strip changes
its position, but this update always preserves meta strip position.
Transforming meta strip is not possible directly and all contained
strips are moved instead. Therefore this is 2-step process and fix needs
to be applied on update function and on translation function.
Inline offset handling without clamping in function
`SEQ_time_update_meta_strip_range()`.
Add new function `seq_time_translate_handles()` to move both handles at
once in `SEQ_transform_translate_sequence()`.
While this was not a critical issue (that lib pointer is only used for
some kind of sanity check that no linked data uses local ID pointers),
better to keep `IDP_BlendReadLib` in sync with all other lib-linking
code.
This was caused by strip content length and start position being
incorrect. Previously this was set from strip boundary by update
function, but it was removed.
Add back code to set effect strip start and length.
Previously content length was always 1 for effects, but now it must
correspond to strip length. Because of this workaround for speed effect
to get this apparent content length was removed.
Removes the following macros for scene/render frame values:
- `CFRA`
- `SUBFRA`
- `SFRA`
- `EFRA`
These macros don't add much, other than saving a few characters when typing.
It's not immediately clear what they refer to, they just hide what they
actually access. Just be explicit and clear about that.
Plus these macros gave read and write access to the variables, so eyesores like
this would be done (eyesore because it looks like assigning to a constant):
```
CFRA = some_frame_nbr;
```

Commit 302b04a5a3 introduced new retiming system, that unified sound
pitch animation with strip speed control. Because sound playback is
handled in different way, this did not work as expected and old files
were broken. In addition animation was not copied to new property.
Revert length position and offset handling for sound strips so their
position does not change and remap fcurves to new `speed_factor`
property.
Patch implements better way to control playback speed than it is
possible to do with speed effect. Speed factor property can be set in
Time panel.
There are 2 layers of control:
Option to retime movie to match scene FPS rate.
Custom speed factor to control playback rate.
Since playback rate is strip property, it is now possible to manipulate
strip as normal one even if it is retimed.
To facilitate manipulation, some functions need to consider speed factor
and apply necessary corrections to strip offset or strip start. These
corrections may need to be float numbers, so start and offsets must be
float as well.
Sound strips now use speed factor instead of pitch. This means, that
strips will change length to match usable length. In addition, it is
possible to group movie and sound strip and change speed of meta strip.
Use function `sequence_editor.display_stack(meta_strip)` to set
displayed timeline content.
To view top-level timeline, that does not belong to any meta strip, pass
`None` as argument.

Function `SEQ_transform_handle_overlap` was declared in sequencer module
header file, but it was defined in editor/transform module.
Move definition to sequencer module.
Function `SEQ_transform_seqbase_shuffle_time` did not have access to
strip effects, and therefore could not handle their animation. Since
now transformation knows what strips can't be directly moved, but their
position depends on other strips, this collection of strips is passed as
argument, so animation can be offset correctly.
Caused by `seq_open_anim_file` early returning if anim struct exists,
exen if it's not initialized. To ensure `anim` struct is initialized
when `openfile` argument is true, don't do early return.
Length was set properly when added, but it was clamped by function
`seq_time_effect_range_set`
Add early return for generator effects where offsets can be used
normally.
This patch makes it possible to manipulate strips without need to use
update functions to recalculate effect and meta strips.
Prior to this change function `SEQ_time_update_sequence` had to be used
to update mainly effects and meta strips. This was implemented in a way
that relied on sorted list of strips, which can't always be done and in
rare cases this approach failed.
In case of meta strips, `seqbase` had to be passed and compared with
"active" one to determine whether meta strip should be updated or not.
This is especially weak system that is prone to bugs when functions are
used by python API functions.
Finally, other strip types had startdisp` and `enddisp` fields updated
by this function and a lot of code relied on these fields even if strip
start, length and offsets are available. This is completely
unnecessary.
Implemented changes:
All effects and meta strips are updated when strip handles are moved or
strip is translated, without need to call any update function.
Function `SEQ_time_update_sequence` has been split to
`SEQ_time_update_meta_strip_range` and
`seq_time_update_effects_strip_range`. These functions should be only
used within sequencer module code. Meta update is used for versioning,
which is only reason for it not being declared internally.
Sequence fields `startdisp` and `enddisp` are now only used for
effects to store strip start and end points. These fields should be
used only internally within sequencer module code.
Use function `SEQ_time_*_handle_frame_get` to get strip start and end
points.
To update effects and meta strips with reasonable performance, cache
for "parent" meta strip and attached effects is added to
`SequenceLookup` cache, so it shares invalidation mechanisms.
All caches are populated during single iteration.
There should be no functional changes.
