Code cleanup: replace "LISTLABEL" button type by an "UI_BUT_LIST_ITEM" button flag.
Summary:
Rationals:
I) I was never that happy to have a full button type just to set custom colors to labels inside listitems!
II) If we use (as planned) TEX buttons instead of labels to allow listitems click-rename, I'd like to be able to use listitems' theme color here as well, much easier witha flag than adding yet another button type!

Code cleanup: Move some uiBut->flag to uiBut->drawflag, make those flags anonymous enums.
Summary:
Make some room in but->flag (I did not add another flag, we already have drawflag, which was nearly not used up till now).
Note: I’m not sure whether REDALERT (and perhaps even DISABLED?) should not go to but->drawflag as well...

The widget for the SV gradient was disabling display colorspace transform, but this was not happening for the H slider below, leading to varying H values used to calculate the slider position.
Commit 57760, June this year, broke Theme colors for Label Buttons.
All labels, in every editor or region, now were using same color.
These colors have to be derived from the Editor settings. Code for
this was mistakingly removed.
controlled by the wrong color, now it's controlled by "Menu Back" text color. This
is somewhat confusing but we like some other widgets the standard colors do not
work well on the dark background of popups.
Issue goes back since we stopped using LISTROW button to draw item's name (i.e. since we have custom buttons in list items!).
This commit:
* Adds a new flag to uiBlock, UI_BLOCK_LIST_ITEM, to mark blocks used for each list item.
* Adds a new button type, LISTLABEL, which basically behaves exactly as LABEL, but uses wcol_list_item color set.
* When uiItemL is called, it checks whether current block has UI_BLOCK_LIST_ITEM set, and if so, switch produced button to LISTLABEL type.
* Adds a new helper func, ui_layout_list_set_labels_active, called after the active list item has been "drawn", to set all LISTLABEL buttons as UI_SELECT.
Note custom widget_state_label() was removed, in interface_widgets.c, as it did nothing more than default widget_state().
Thanks to Brecht for the review and advices.
* CHARTAB: not needed anymore with improved copy/paste support and text input.
* IDPOIN: replaced by SEARCH_MENU.
* ICONROW/ICONTEXTROW: replaced by RNA enums.
* NUMABS: can use min/max limits instead.
* BUT_TOGDUAL, TOG3, TOGR, SLI: not used in 2.5 interface.
There were an issues with data structures defined in headers
and being used by both C and C++ on systems with stdbool
unavailable.
This happened because bool in this case will be defined as
unsigned int, which is 4 bytes. But C++'s bool is only 1
byte and this lead to alignment issues.
Now bool is always 1 byte, also made sure there's no situation
like bool foo = BitField & BitFlag, which could give overflow
issues. Use (BitField & BitFlag) != 0 instead.
Fixes#35553: Compositor broken (Backdrop & Preview)
Labels in UI were not drawing greyed out when disabled.
Bug in post 2.66a commit to make greying out buttons draw much nicer.
User reported Addon menu was not clearly showing disabled Addons anymore.
Color Pickers in Blender support precision editing with holding Shift key.
Unfortunately, on first click the picker cursor moves to the mouse position,
making the precision dragging quite useless.
Now, if you hold Shift, the picker editing will only apply the delta motion
of your mouse drags, making it much nicer for fine tuning of color grades
in Sequencer or Compositor.
per render layer samples in addition to the progress bar.
Also fixed job progress bar not working at all on high DPI / retina, was so small
the actual progress was not visible.
- Theme color for the brush popup was not correctly coded. Now it follows menu item
style correctly, which also allows all the themes we have to give readable text.
- RMB cancel also added for slider buttons and the color picker.
The old 2.5 code was just drawing a blended rect over buttons, which looks bad
in cases the backdrop is undefined.
Now widget drawing code just draws everything half transparent. Much nicer!
Time for textured backdrops? ;)
PyNodes opens up the node system in Blender to scripters and adds a number of UI-level improvements.
=== Dynamic node type registration ===
Node types can now be added at runtime, using the RNA registration mechanism from python. This enables addons such as render engines to create a complete user interface with nodes.
Examples of how such nodes can be defined can be found in my personal wiki docs atm [1] and as a script template in release/scripts/templates_py/custom_nodes.py [2].
=== Node group improvements ===
Each node editor now has a tree history of edited node groups, which allows opening and editing nested node groups. The node editor also supports pinning now, so that different spaces can be used to edit different node groups simultaneously. For more ramblings and rationale see (really old) blog post on code.blender.org [3].
The interface of node groups has been overhauled. Sockets of a node group are no longer displayed in columns on either side, but instead special input/output nodes are used to mirror group sockets inside a node tree. This solves the problem of long node lines in groups and allows more adaptable node layout. Internal sockets can be exposed from a group by either connecting to the extension sockets in input/output nodes (shown as empty circle) or by adding sockets from the node property bar in the "Interface" panel. Further details such as the socket name can also be changed there.

Now, disabled items use a mix of text and menu item background (inner) color. Same results, but allows dark themes with bright selected text to use shadows.
Example case: http://pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=45697
* Color picker cursor was too small, and color cirle was not smooth enough.
* Border select gesture cross before first click did not reach to the border
of the window.
* Buttons were not drawing emboss properly (also for non-retina actually).
Note it doesn't draw entirely right for aligned buttons, but this was also
the case before it got broken.
Blender's data link button (typically with menu and searching options)
now has a X icon to clear its contents.
Before you had to click, delete text, enter.
For example:
- Object Parent
- Modifier objects or vertexgroups
This fix saves each user 100 clicks per day, with 100k users
that's 3 billion clicks per year!
