Since {rB46aa70cb486d}, using `NC_SPACE | ND_SPACE_VIEW3D` as notifier is
restricted to space data as a reference. This was still used though for
RNA updates in other places (namely `rna_camera`, `rna_scene`,
`rna_animviz`), and passing NULL would automatically set the notifier
reference to the owner id. Above commit would happily filter these out,
leading to missing refreshes.
Now use more specific notifiers (in case of animviz a new
`ND_DRAW_ANIMVIZ` was added).
This was reported for Camera background images btw.

Changes include:
- Use `IFACE_` for UI labels set in the modifier panels
- Use a sub-sub-panel for transparency
- Fix grammar and spelling mistakes
- Use more natural user-friendly wording
- Make descriptions more specific and more useful
- Don't capitalize "line art" in descriptions (tooltips)
These changes are aimed at making the UI strings more consistent with
the rest of the UI and being more helpful to someone trying to understand
how to use the modifier.

This patch adds the ability to mute individual wires in the node editor.
This is invoked like the cut links operator but with a new shortcut.
Mute = Ctrl + Alt
Cut = Ctrl
Dragging over wires will toggle the mute state for that wire.
The muted wires are drawn in red with a bar across the center.
Red is used in the nodes context to indicate invalid links, muted links and internal links.
When a wire is muted it exposes the original node buttons which are normally hidden when a wire is connected.
Downstream and upstream links connected using reroute nodes are also muted.
Outside scope of patch:
- Add support for pynodes e.g. Animation Nodes
- Requires minor change to check for muted links using the `is_muted` link property or the `is_linked` socket property.

This commit includes nodes to build the following primitives:
- Cone
- Cylinder
- Circle
- Cube
- UV Sphere
- Ico Sphere
- Line
- Plane/Grid
In general the inputs are the same as the corresponding operators
in the 3D view.
**Line Primitive**
The line primitive has two modes-- adding vertices between two end
points, or adding vertices each at an offset from the start point.
For the former mode, there is a choice between a vertex count
and a distance between each point.
**Plane Primitive**
This commit includes the "Plane" and "Grid" primitives as one node.
Generally primitives are named after the simpler form of the shape they
create (i.e. "Cone" can make some more complex shapes). Also, generally
you want to tweak the number of subdivisions anyway, so defaulting to
plane is not an inconvenience. And generally having fewer redundant
base primitives is better.
**Future Improvements**
A following patch proposes to improve the speed of the cylinder, cone,
and sphere primitives: D10730. Additional possible future improvements
would be adding subdivisions to the cube node and rings to the cone
and cylinder nodes.

This adds the LineArt grease pencil modifier.
It takes objects or collections as input and generates various grease
pencil lines from these objects with the help of the active scene
camera. For example it can generate contour lines, intersection lines
and crease lines to name a few.
This is really useful as artists can then use 3D meshes to automatically
generate grease pencil lines for characters, enviroments or other
visualization purposes.
These lines can then be baked and edited as regular grease pencil lines.

In the current implementation, cryptomatte passes are connected to the node
and elements are picked by using the eyedropper tool on a special pick channel.
This design has two disadvantages - both connecting all passes individually
and always having to switch to the picker channel are tedious.
With the new design, the user selects the RenderLayer or Image from which the
Cryptomatte layers are directly loaded (the type of pass is determined by an
enum). This allows the node to automatically detect all relevant passes.
Then, when using the eyedropper tool, the operator looks up the selected
coordinates from the picked Image, Node backdrop or Clip and reads the picked
object directly from the Renderlayer/Image, therefore allowing to pick in any
context (e.g. by clicking on the Combined pass in the Image Viewer). The
sampled color is looked up in the metadata and the actual name is stored
in the cryptomatte node. This also allows to remove a hash by just removing
the name from the matte id.
Technically there is some loss of flexibility because the Cryptomatte pass
inputs can no longer be connected to other nodes, but since any compositing
done on them is likely to break the Cryptomatte system anyways, this isn't
really a concern in practise.
In the future, this would also allow to automatically translate values to names
by looking up the value in the associated metadata of the input, or to get a
better visualization of overlapping areas in the Pick output since we could
blend colors now that the output doesn't have to contain the exact value.

Callbacks used in `bpy.props` didn't hold a references to the functions
they used.
While this has been the case since early 2.5x it didn't cause any
problems as long as the class held a reference.
With Python 3.10 or when using `from __future__ import annotations`,
the annotations are no longer owned by the class once evaluated.
Resolve this by holding a reference in the module, which now supports
traverse & clear callbacks so the objects are visible to Python's
garbage collector.
Also refactor storage of Python data, moving from an array into a struct.
There are two caveats of the current implementation which still need
to be resolved in a separate step:
* In theory the data on the original object can be editable in the spreadsheet.
* If a complex object is in edit mode, and its original data is displayed,
the drawing code can be slow, because the bmesh is converted to a mesh
every time. The proper solution is to draw the data from the bmesh directly.
This should become easier after an upcoming refactor.

The Attribute Convert node provides functionality to change attributes
between different domains and data types. Before it was impossible to
write to a UV Map attribute with the attribute math nodes since they
did not output a 2D vector type. This makes it possible to
"convert into" a UV map attribute.
The data type conversion uses the implicit conversions provided by
`\nodes\intern\node_tree_multi_function.cc`.
The `Auto` domain mode chooses the domain based on the following rules:
1. If the result attribute already exists, use that domain.
2. If the result attribute doesn't exist, use the source attribute domain.
3. Otherwise use the default domain (points).

This is basically done by ignoring override operations from old override
affecting ID pointer properties, when the new (destination) one is not
NULL.
Fix T86501: New object added to overridden collection doesn't show up in linking file on Resync.
This is more of a work-around actually, since there is no real way to
fix the issue in a fully automated and consistent way, it is caused by
older blender files being saved with 'broken' overrides.
WARNING: This cannot ensure that some purposedly edited/overridden ID
pointer properties won't be lost in the process.
We can fairly easily detect some resync-needed cases when applying the
overrides operations on a Pointer RNA property.
This should cover all cases where an existing override's ID pointer is
changed in its linked data.
We still have to add code to detect when a not-yet-overridden linked ID
needs to become overridden (because its relations to other data-blocks
changed in a way that requires it).
Part of T83811 & D10649.
This implements the MVP for the new spreadsheet editor (T85879). The functionality
is still very limited, but it proved to be useful already. A more complete picture
of where we want to go with the new editor can be found in T86279.
Supported features:
* Show point attributes of evaluated meshes (no original data, no other domains,
no other geometry types, yet). Since only meshes are supported right now, the
output of the Point Distribute is not shown, because it is a point cloud.
* Only show data for selected vertices when the mesh is in edit mode.
Different parts of Blender keep track of selection state and original-indices with
varying degrees of success. Therefore, when the selected-only filter is used, the
result might be a bit confusing when using some modifiers or nodes. This will
be improved in the future.
* All data is readonly. Since only evaluated data is displayed currently, it has to
be readonly. However, this is not an inherent limitation of the spreadsheet editor.
In the future editable data will be displayed as well.
Some boilerplate code for the new editor has been committed before in
rB9cb5f0a2282a7a84f7f8636b43a32bdc04b51cd5.
It would be good to let the spreadsheet editor mature for a couple of weeks as part
of the geometry nodes project. Then other modules are invited to show their own data
in the new editor!

The commit rB6f63417b500d that made exact boolean work on meshes
with holes (like Suzanne) unfortunately dramatically slowed things
down on other non-manifold meshes that don't have holes and didn't
need the per-triangle insideness test.
This adds a hole_tolerant parameter, false by default, that the user
can enable to get good results on non-manifold meshes with holes.
Using false for this parameter speeds up the time from 90 seconds
to 10 seconds on an example with 1.2M triangles.
Add `BKE_pose_apply_action(object, action, anim_eval_context)` function
and expose in RNA as `Pose.apply_action(action, evaluation_time)`.
This makes it possible to do the following:
- Have a rig in pose mode.
- Select a subset of the bones.
- Have some Action loaded that contains the pose you want to apply.
- Run `C.object.pose.apply_pose_from_action(D.actions['PoseName'])`
- The selected bones are now posed as determined by the Action.
Just like Blender's current pose library, having no bones selected acts
the same as having all bones selected.

In Blender, we used to use the term 'draw' to refer to information
displayed to the user. For version 2.80, it was decided to change these
instances to 'display' instead. This was to avoid the ambiguity between
end-user drawing tools and display options.
From the Oxford English Dictionary:
- Draw: produce (a picture or diagram) by making lines and marks on
paper with a pencil, pen, etc.
- Display: show (data or an image) on a computer, television, or
other screen.
Therefore, we should use draw when referring to drawing tools for
making marks, but use display when referring to information
shown/displayed to the user. From a user POV, the computer displays
certain information, whereas the user draws a mark.
Apparently this change was not implemented consistently, so this patch
changes all remaining relevant instances of "draw".
