When the visiblity of a F-Curve in an expanded group was enabled using VKEY, the visibility of all groups above the expanded groups were also turned on.
This commit adds a few more execution contexts for operators, given the increasing tendency for some special regiontypes to exist within areas that must have their own set of special operators.
Examples of these include the "channel" operators in the Animation Editors (i.e. those in the 'Channels' menu), and the "Fit to Preview Window" operator for the Sequencer.
Previously, operators such as these would not function when clicked on from the menus, and they would not show the hotkeys they were mapped to.
Also, fixed a few operator definitions in the Animation Editors which were missing ot->prop defines. This meant that some hotkeys (mainly selection) were shown incorrectly in the menus.
Action Groups can now be expanded/collapsed in DopeSheet editors without the same thing happening in the Graph Editor, and visa versa.
This should help improve the workflow, since the channel lists are generally kept more compact in the DopeSheet, while they are more expanded in the Graph Editor, so less time is spent expanding/collapsing stuff. Also this should hopefully alleviate some of the errors from accidentally deleting and then having to restore channels that were not intended to be deleted.
Also, switched the order of the expand/collapse hotkeys (in the channels list region) for channels so that Ctrl +/- now expands/collapses selected channels only, while +/- expands/collapses all channels. This should make it more convenient to quickly open up all groups to select F-Curves for the Graph Editor.
this is too arbitrary and could break if roperty order is changed.
store the property in the operator type that is to be used for menu and enum search func's.
python function for searching operator enums on invoke. (just need dynamic python enums now)

Protect and Mute toggles now flush their values when changed, like for visibility, making the workflow a bit smoother. Currently, this only takes effect when clicking on the toggles (i.e. the hotkey+select based toggle setting operators don't take this into account yet).
* Mesh data/settings can now be animated. It is not recommended that geometry be animated directly, but other settings such as autosmooth, etc. can be...
* Code cleanups for depsgraph, making sure that drivers get included for all object data types.
* Moved 'change shortcut' (previously directly RMB on menu items) to a context-menu item, and added Remove Shortcut and Add Shortcut. This is all available now in a RMB context menu for operator buttons and menu entries.
* Renamed a bunch of key maps to be consistent with UI names, and human-readable. Since these key map names are now being directly used in the UI for people to find things, they should be understandable and in plain language.
This renaming may break some older saved key map setups - though previously saved .b25.blends should convert over ok. Exported .py files may need some find/replacing - in this commit check the changes in resources.c to see what's changed.
This commit fixes#19908 and #20239. Deleting keyframes will now delete the F-Curves they came from too, if the F-Curves don't have any more keyframes and/or F-Modifiers providing any further motion info.
Improved the hotkeys for toggling the visibility of channels in the keys area for the Graph Editor.
* VKEY - this is now used for making only the selected channels visible, hiding everything else
* Shift-VKEY - the old toggling behaviour
In addition to this, I've made these toggling operators flush the visibility flags up/down the hierarchy, just like clicking on the channels manually do. There are still a few minor oddities to iron out, but it should be better than before.
Also, fixed a bug with these toggling operators introduced during my earlier commit to make filtering work ok. It's always tricky getting these layers of checks just right, so hopefully nothing breaks now again...
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:

Toggling one of the visibility toggles in the Graph Editor now flushes the new value up/down the hierarchy.
- when enabling a visibility toggle, all the 'higher' up and lower down channels get their visibility turned on
- when disabling a visibility toggle, only the ones lower down get their visibility turned off (since there might still be other channels at the same level which are still enabled.
This makes showing/hiding groups of F-Curves much easier, since previously you'd have to use multiple clicks to isolate particular F-Curves. For example, to isolate only X Location curves, previously, the workflow would have been to select all AKEY, hide all VKEY, then toggle the individual X Location curves in group, then make sure the groups and objects, etc. were also visible. Now, the steps of making sure that the parents were visible too has been eliminated.

Also, fixed a few minor bugs with the animation-backend code for Graph Editor.
Special priority request from Durian team to get this sub-editor of the DopeSheet Editor restored. Originally I was kindof planning to drop it, but obviously it still has a role!
It now supports all the modern features that the DopeSheet supports, complete with selection, muting, locking, DopeSheet summary, and all the other tools that you know and love from the other views.
Also, this no longer uses the old hacky sliders that 2.4x used (instead it uses RNA-based ones), so should function just the same as other DopeSheet views).
Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.
Main Feature:
* It is now possible to choose which AnimData block is the 'active' one for editing, and/or select them too. AnimData blocks are generally the dark blue and lighter-blue expanders (i.e. Scene, Object, Camera, Lamp, Curve, Armature, etc.)
* Objects are no longer selected/deselected when AKEY is used to toggle selection of channels. This was getting a bit annoying.
* Following on from selection of AnimData blocks, it is now possible to select/make active an AnimData block in the animation editors, and change the active action for that block via the 'Animation Data' panel in NLA Editor's properties region.
--> Be aware that user-counts are not totally handled correctly there yet, so some funky behaviour might be seen...
--> It is possible to assign a new action, or to assign an existing one, allowing to switch between actions as in the past with Actions/IPO Editors...
Other tweaks:
* Some code tweaks towards making the 'Euler Filter' feature for Graph Editor working sometime soon
* Added some backend code for snapping the values of keyframes to a single value. Still need to work out some UI for it though.
* Shuffled the code for ACT_OT_new() around, and removed the poll() callback so that it worked in NLA too.
* Fixed some more notifier bugs with deleting bones and a few other editmode operations for Armatures.
their handlers based on notifiers, which is simpler and more
reliable.
This fixes for example editmode or uv edit keymaps not working
when creating a new 3dview or image space.
Now the mute/protect/expand/etc. toggles are drawn using UI widgets. This means that special event handling code to determine when they were clicked on is no longer needed, and also means that there can now be tooltips for these items too.
Also, added visibility toggles for ID-block expanders, which will cause all the F-Curves in the linked datablock to not get drawn. The backend filtering code to make this work will come later...
Finally started refactoring the drawing code for animation editors so that all the drawing (of the channels/names list) is done using standardised code for all the editors.
A little specialised system for this has been made, and is now used for DopeSheet and Graph Editor drawing. This should make it easier to add new channel types with less effort.
Protect/mute toggles are now always clamped to the right-hand edge of the channels list. So you can now make the list wider to view longer names fully. However, since the mouse-handling hasn't been fixed yet, this won't always work.
TODOs:
* make mouse-click handling code use this system too, simplifying things to 1-2 lines of code there. Maybe this could be made to use UI widgets instead at a later date?
* NLA still needs to be ported to this system
