Caminandes team request. In current master it's not possible to do this in a total
clean way, so we are simply setting all user counts of given lib's datablocks to zero
(similar to rna_ID_user_clear()'s doing).
This is a bit crappy because it still lets datablocks floating around (with invalid
user count values), and requires a save & reload cycle to be finalized. But for now
it should be good enough. Propper implementation will be added to id-remap.
From Gooseberry team request indirect libs were also added at root of 'BlendFile' Outliner view,
but that allowed edition of their path, which is useless...
- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
We cannot nuke treestore in readfile's `blo_lib_link_screen_restore()`, because this will
destroy all UI-state data (like opened/closed items, etc.).
Since we cannot know for sure whether an ID pointer from tselem->id is valid here, we
have to ensure they are never invalid, i.e. to always set them to NULL when we delete them.
To do so, this commit uses a similar approach as what already exists for ID references
in WM notifiers - it extends `free_notifier_reference_cb()` to also nullify those IDs in
all outliners.
Note that some ID types are not used(shown) by outliner currently, so `TREESTORE_ID_TYPE` macro
was added, that checks whether an ID is possibly used by outliner. Avoids a few searches
in whole tree whene deleting some IDs.

Many users have been requesting a way to remove unused datablocks from the file/session
"without closing and reopening" Blender (or at least that's the impression I'm getting).
This commit adds a new operator (exposed as the "Purge All" button in the header of
the "Orphaned Datablocks" mode in the Outliner, which seems to be the logical
place for this) for doing so. It does so by wrapping up the save and "revert"
(i.e. reload the saved file from disk, without needing to quit Blender) operators
along with a confirmation prompt for good measure.
Caveats:
* Ultimately, we still cannot really cleanly delete any datablocks from the current
session outright without reloading the file/data at some point. Thus, we do need
to reload the file again before it can be used.
* This does mean that this operation is irreversible. Notably, Undo history is lost
is doing this operation. Hence the warnings... (Then again, undo/redo actually
reloads the entire scene DB from memory, so it's not anything uncommon ;)
Other Notes:
* The addition of this operator brings this mode more into line with being a kind of
"Trashcan" place, with this new operator being the manual "Empty Trash" button.
If the "Orphaned Datablocks" name is too obscure, maybe we could rename this
mode to "Trash" or something similar?
Previously, if the active object was a child, "Show Active" only showed the
parent object. Now it also opens the tree to take children into account.
Patch D974 by @lichtwerk with some minor edits, reviewed by me.
Make the UI API more consistent and reduce confusion with some naming.
mainly:
- API function calls
- enum values
some internal static functions have been left for now
Operators that trigger UI events (but nothing else)
were using 'CANCELLED' making it impossible to tell if an invoke
function failed, or opened a menu.
View2D had some inconsistencies making it error prone in some cases.
- Inconstant checking for NULL x/y args.
Disallow NULL args for x/y destination pointers, instead add:
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_x/y
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_x/y
- '_no_clip' suffix wasn't always used for non-clipping conversion,
switch it around and use a '_clip' suffix for all funcs that clip.
- UI_view2d_text_cache_add now clips before adding cache.
- '_clip' funcs return a bool to quickly check if its in the view.
- add conversion for rectangles, since this is a common task:
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_rcti
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_rctf
previously this had to be done one by one.
both single and triagle vertex parents can be made, selected based on distance to the verts.
Developer notes:
- looks like this was old TODO, enums existed but weren't used.
- only meshes currently support using.
- added BKE_object_as_kdtree(), may come in handy for similar cases.
- performance of outliner was low because of unoptimal data structures.
- now it uses BLI_mempool instead of custom mempool and GHash to make searches for duplicates faster.
- also fix undesired behaviour of BLI_mempool_as_arrayN
thanks to Campbell Barton and Lukas Tönne for helping me get a better fix put together.
This significantly lowers the position of outliner_draw_tree_element in profiler
and partially fixes [#36260] (2,300 Objects Makes Blender Unresponsive)
* deduplicated a bunch of code and moved it into outliner_dropzone_find()
* moved all the per-dropzone checks into the poll functions
* one functional change, disable drop parenting on self & self->parent
The basic assumption: if poll() == true then outliner_dropzone_find() will return a valid TreeElement
- loop over scene bases rather then looping over all objects, then looking up bases.
- shuffle checks so slow ones are last.
- rather then having own behavior for recursive select, do the regular operation,
then apply the result recursively afterwards.
besides performance in some cases.
* DAG_scene_sort is now removed and replaced by DAG_relations_tag_update in
most cases. This will clear the dependency graph, and only rebuild it right
before it's needed again when the scene is re-evaluated.
This is done because DAG_scene_sort is slow when called many times from
python operators. Further the scene argument is not needed because most
operations can potentially affect more than the current scene.
* DAG_scene_relations_update will now rebuild the dependency graph if it's not
there yet, and DAG_scene_relations_rebuild will force a rebuild for the rare
cases that need it.
* Remove various places where ob->recalc was set manually. This should go
through DAG_id_tag_update() in nearly all cases instead since this is now
a fast operation. Also removed DAG_ids_flush_update that goes along with
such manual tagging of ob->recalc.
- The new "Main Data" option is now under the category "Blender File".
- That category also displays the Linked Library files.

Also fixed CTRL+click on names, crashed.
