This patch adds an opacity slider to the wireframe overlay. The previous

Move the "Show Group Colors" toggle from a per-editor option to a single
user preference in the Animation preferences. The Grease Pencil
animation channel side panel allows picking a channel color; this now
shows a message when channel colors are disabled.
The old "Show Group Colors" toggle had to be set per editor, and was on
by default. This meant that disabling group colors would require an
action for every file, for every editor. It is very hard to select a
color that works both as bone color in the 3D Viewport (needs to be
bright there) as well as the channel list (needs to be dark there), most
animators turn channel list colors off.

`WM_operator_properties_filesel()` allows C operators to set a display or sort
type for the File Browser to use. But the File Browser would always override
that because of an invalid `_is_set()` check. (The operators don't actually set
the value, they only set the property's default value.)
The only operator affected by this is "Recover Auto Save". It is supposed to
show a vertical list ordered chronologically. It used settings from the
previous File Browser usage before this patch.
Operators using the File Browser should generally use
`FILE_DEFAULTDISPLAY`/`FILE_SORT_DEFAULT` now, except if they have a reason not
to. See comments at their definition.
----
This makes it so operators that set a different display or sort type
don't change the sort or display type for the next File Browser operation.
So using "Recover Auto Save" entirely isolates display and sort type from other
operations.

This patch enables property search for all tabs in the property editor.
To make interaction faster, if the editor's current tab doesn't have a
result, the current tab changes to the next tab that has a match.
This patch implements basic code that only searches panels.
While we could run the existing "single tab" property search for every
tab, that would also do everything else related to the layout pass,
which would be less efficient, and maybe more complicated to maintain.
The search match status for every current tab of the property editor is
stored in a runtime bitfield and them displayed later by dimming icons
in the tab selector panel to the left. Using `BLI_bitmap` properly in
the runtime struct required moving it to `buttons_intern.h` and
adding a small API to access the search filter instead.
To make sure the editor isn't influenced by anything that happens while
building the layout for other tabs, most of the context is duplicated
and the new search is run in the duplicated editor.
Note that the tool settings tab works slightly different than the other
tabs, so I've disabled searching it for this commit. That would be a
relatively simple improvement, but would just require a bit of
refactoring of existing code.

The overlay options in the image/uv editor is hidden in side panels and menus. Sometimes this panel is even hidden, while still useful.
The goal of this task is to introduce an overlay pop-over just like the overlay-popover of the 3d viewport.
Popover has
* UV Stretching (only available in the UV mode, when active object mode is a mesh and in OB_EDIT mode)
* Display As (only available in the UV mode, when active object mode is a mesh and in OB_EDIT mode)
* Show Modified (only available in the UV mode, when active object mode is a mesh and in OB_EDIT mode)
* Show UV Edges (including opacity slider; available UV, View, Paint, when active object mode is a mesh and in OB_EDIT mode)
* Udim tiles when no image is available.
Like the 3d viewport, there will be a editor toggle to enable/disable the overlays
For compatibility reasons the RNA properties are added to both the `SpaceImage.uv_editor` amd `SpaceImage.overlay`. On DNA level they are still stored in the SpaceImage. only new properties are added to the SpaceImageOverlay struct. During the next major release we could remove these options from `SpaceImage.uv_editor`. This should be noted in the Python section of release notes.

The sticky_select_mode property is an enum where each item has a
different behavior, but currently the description is for a single one
of the items. It should be more general, especially because one of the
items is "Disabled."
A couple more problems:
- "Automatically" is not so helpful. Many things any program does are
"automatic", it doesn't really help to say it.
- "Also" is bad grammar.
- Overly complex wording
This also adjusts the SHARED_VERTEX tooltip, because "irrespective"
should have "of" after, but it's also unecessarily complex.

Actions are either locked to a specific ID type, or "floating". Actions
in the floating state are now locked when they are assigned to an ID block.
Previously (rB94b99b5d4a7c20cf2) this was done at evaluation time, which
caused various problems:
- The ID type was set on the evaluated copy, and inconsistently flushed
back to the original.
- A newly created Action could not be assigned to an Action constraint,
unless a depsgraph evaluation was be forced first.
This is now resolved by calling `BKE_animdata_set_action()` to set the
action (instead of direct assignment) where possible, and calling
`BKE_animdata_action_ensure_idroot()` otherwise.

This implements a new overlay that blends the bakground color over the

them fade with the background.

This adds a search bar to the properties editor. The full search for
every tab isn't included in this patch, but the interaction with
panels, searching behavior, UI, region level, and DNA changes are
included here.
The block-level search works by iterating over the block's button
groups and checking whether they match the search. If they do, they
are tagged with a flag, and the block's panel is tagged too. For
every update (text edit), the panel's expansion is set to whether
the panel has a result or not. The search also checks for matching
strings inside enums and in panel labels.
One complication to this that isn't immediately apparent is that
closed panel's subpanels have to be searched too. This adds some
complexity to the area-level panel layout code.
Possible Future Improvements:
- Use the new fuzzy search in BLI
- Reset panels to their expansion before the search started if
the user escape out of the text box.
- Open all child panels of a panel with expansion.

There are some areas that don't handle pure emissive colors well. For
example erasing alpha using 2d or 3d painting. Or blurring an image in
the compositor.
This patch makes the rendering of pure emissive colors optional. In the
side panel of the Image editor it can still be enabled when needed.
There currently isn't a better place to store it as it is related on how
the image (or a layer of the image) is created. A future design needs to
make sure that the full workflow is supported.
Add a column of icons in the left gutter of the outliner for controlling
the interaction modes of objects. When an object is in a mode other than
object mode, the mode icon will draw to the left of that object. Any
other objects that are valid to be added or swapped into the mode are
drawn with a dot to the left of the object.
Clicking the dot to the left of an object will swap that object with the
current active object in the interaction mode. For edit and pose modes,
ctrl clicking the dot will add that object to the current mode.
Clicking the mode icon next to the active object removes it and all
other objects from the current mode.
The behavior is nearly identical to the previous edit/pose mode toggling
by selecting the mesh and armature datablocks, with additional support
for all interaction modes.
Currently two undo steps are pushed to prevent an assert.

We have established a convention of exposing the most important
settings from popovers, then aligning a popover to control more
detailed settings.
The file browser has powerful display / filtering settings, but
they're hidden in popovers at the moment, so it's sometimes a pain
to use them. The "display as" options are now exposed to the left of
the display settings popover, and the "filter" toggle is exposed to
the left of the filter settings popover. This convention is familiar
and intuitive for users and makes interaction faster.
Note that the "show hidden" item in the filter popover still has an
effect if filtering is disabled.

- Removes the icons in the "Sort By" enum
- Uses property split for the "Sort By" enum
