Actually, to purge orphans datablock you need go to Outliner, enable Orphan mode and press Purge button (that sometimes is out of the view because the window is too narrow).
To have this option hidden make very difficult to users use and understand what means orphan data, so this patch just adds a new Clean Up menu to File menu with this option. This menu could be used in the future for more clean up options. To have a general Clean Up menu is common used in other softwares.

Since rB6bc6d016c5e7, outliner was not opening back up from the found
active element (but only its ID instead -- all occurances of this ID in
any collection).
Now expand from the active element as well (but only do this for the
first occurance of the corresponding ID)

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.

Adjusts the scrolling of show active and scroll page operators
to use the `outliner_scroll_view` operator to ensure scrolling
does not leave the outliner bounds.
Also changes show active to expand subtrees containing all
instances of the active object, which may be linked to multiple
collections.
Previously with F2 mapped to the global rename active object
operator, it was not posible to use the conventional F2 to rename any
outliner element like collections or object data. This adds F2 to the
outliner keymap to call the outliner rename operator rather than the
popup rename object operator.
Adds a keyboard walk navigation and selection operator to the
outliner. Up and down arrow keys walk up and down the list of
elements, and left and right will open and close elements if
the elements are closed or opened respectively. Holding shift
while walking up and down the tree expands the selection.
Holding shift while clicking or pressing left and right arrows
will expand or collapse all children elements recursively.
Pressing enter to openclose the hovered element is removed.
Also allows click+drag for openclose of element subtrees.
This moves openclose toggling to the openclose operator to
remove duplicate code. The outliner tree building is tweaked
slightly to set the proper parents in scene display mode for walk
select to walk to parents without errors.
Allow selection of subtree elements on a collapsed element's
row. Because subtree elements are aggregated by type, a select on
an icon that represents multiple subtree elements will invoke a
popup menu to select the specific subtree element.
Also draws highlights on cursor hover over a row icon.
Any child elements that are linked to multiple collections will
only be listed in the popup one time, and selection from the
popup will select the first instance in the subtree.
Adds a toggle to the filter menu for outliner synced selection. Enabled
by default, this ensures selection is synced between objects, bones, and
sequences. An active outliner element theme color is added to indicate
which element is active.
Synced selection is controlled on the operator level. Each operator
that modifies selection for objects, bones, sequences, or outliner
elements needs to call the respective ED_outliner_select_sync_from..
function to tag outliners to be synced.
Syncing is done lazily on outliner draw.
This patch removes the hover highlight that can sometimes remain after moving out of the Outliner space

No major API change here, only in the outliner restriction column
variables (e.g., show_restrict_column_selectable > show_restrict_column_select).
* Get rid of _INSTANCE (introduced on b1af682001).
* Differentiate (everywhere but the API) between HIDE (temporary) and VIEWPORT (global).
* Use the expected icon for restrict viewport (same as objects and modifiers).
* selectable > select
See T61578 for discussions and mockups.
Visibility Options
==================
We are adding more granular control over restriction columns in the outliner,
exposing "indirect only" and "holdout" as options, and change the way
users enable/disable collections in a viewlayer.
We also rename the object viewport restriction to hide instance.
So the options we have are:
Collection
----------
* Render Visibility
* Instance Visibility
* Selectable
(View) Layer Collection
-----------------------
* Enable
* Holdout
* Indirect Only
* Viewport
Shortcuts
=========
Isolate Collection
------------------
* Ctr + click isolates the collection.
It turns all its parents and children "visible", and all the other
collections "invisible".
If ALL the collections were already properly set, we re-set the
collections to their default value.
Set Collection Inside Collections and Objects
---------------------------------------------
* Shift + click: Set/unset inside collections and objects.
We only set objects values as well when we are in View Layer mode and
(obviously) when the objects have a matching property.
Icons
=====
Little reminder that we will need better icons for holdout, indirect only, and
probably instanced (nothing wrong with the current, but it differs from
the proposal when it is turned off).
Also, we need to decide where do we want the modifier/bones/... icons to
be (in which column) and ideally make sure their icons match the ones we
use for collections/objects.
At the moment those are using the screen icon, which is not being used
by collections.

This adds entries to copy/paste (selected) IDs in the Outliner, as well
as usual ctrl-C/ctrl-V shortcuts.
Note that the clipboard is shared with other IDs copying (currently, the
one for objects in 3DView).

While ideally we could have a complete detailed list of deleted IDs,
that would require more work UI wise, think for now we can live with
just a rough summary.
Related to T61209.
That guy was still from the era where only way to remove an ID was to
save & reload the .blend file. Use modern code instead, should also be
much, much more efficient in big production files.
And that’s another nice occasion to add/test new batch ID deletion code, too. ;)

- 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.
There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.
Fixes T58632: Particle don't update rotation settings
Add tool options to control how select operates (add/sub/set/and/xor).
Note: edit mode armature select still needs to support all options,
this is complicated by how it handles partial end-point selection.
