using "Auto Keying" + "Insert Available Only"
Patch from Campbell.
The problem was that NLA offset/mapping correction was only done when no
destination action was supplied to insert_keyframe(). In most cases, this is not
a problem, since all normal keyframing goes through keyingset or the insert-
button operators, and these just pass action=NULL (since they're too lazy to
look it up). However, there is one situation where this bug gets triggered (the
specific combination of autokeyframing and "insert available only"), where the
caller of insert_keyframe() actually passed in an action (to prevent it from
creating one itself!).
linked via material
Textures linked to modifiers are now shown in the AnimEditor channel hierarchy
under object level now (i.e. on same level as ob-data, shapekeys, and object's
action). This makes it possible to edit such animation data without having to
ensure that these textures are also linked to the object's material so that they
will appear.
As a side-effect of how this is implemented, if playback is slower on scenes
following this commit, disable the "modifier" filter under the filtering
settings in the relevant animation editor header. In particular, it may be
beneficial to disable this when you've got scenes with meshes that have many
modifiers (but none of these have any linked data with settings which can be
animated), as Blender will still try to go through all those modifiers checking
for anything to show.
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)
Most of the places which relied on RNA_path_resolve() did so believing that if
it returned true, that it had found a valid property, and that the returned
pointer+property combination would be what the path referred to. However, it
turns out that if the property at the end of the path turns out to be a
"pointer" property (e.g. "data" for Object.data), this would automatically
become the pointer part, while the prop part would be set to null. Hence, if a
user accidentally (or otherwise) specifies a path for the single-property driver
variable type like this, then Blender would crash.
This commit introduces two convenience functions - RNA_path_resolve_property()
and RNA_path_resolve_property_full() - which mirror/wrap the existing
RNA_path_resolve() functions. The only difference though is that these include a
check to ensure that what was found from resolving the path was in fact a
property (they only return true iff this is the case), and make it explicitly
clear in the name that this is what they will do so that there's no further
confusion. It is possible to do without these wrapper functions by doing these
checks inline, but the few cases that had been patched already were pretty
hideous looking specimens. Using these just make it clearer and simpler for all.
I've also beefed up the docs on these a bit, and changed these to using bools.

and RNA for it independent of the build flag for enabling Freestyle. Suggested
by Sergey Sharybin through a code review of the branch.
* Many #ifdef WITH_FREESTYLE blocks were removed to always have Freestyle-specific
DNA file specification and RNA for it built in Blender. This will allow Freestyle
setting survive even when a non-Freestyle build is used for loading and saving
files. It is noted that operations are still conditionally built through #ifdef
WITH_FREESTYLE blocks.
* To this end, new blenkernel files BKE_freestyle.h and intern/freestyle.c have
been added. All API functions in FRS_freestyle_config.h as well as some of those
in FRS_freestyle.h were moved to the new files. Now the relocated API functions
have BKE_ prefix instead of FRS_.

actions or NLA data attached was broken
Looks like a typo whcih somehow slipped in at some stage, as I remember that
this used to work at some point 2 years ago!
1) It made no sense to show this as the last operator which was used, since
these can only be used from the anim editors (and not the 3D View where this
panel appears most of the time)
2) Mouse select operators in other places didn't do this
3) There aren't really any editable parameters for this operator anyway
4) It's highly dependent on valid mouse coordinates as input.
Apart from that, undo still works fine, so no need to really keep this here.
Somewhere along the line, this functionality broke, even though the code to
handle these settings was still in place for many of these. The main implication
of this fix is that it should now be possible to select a particular AnimData
block, which makes it possible to do things such as changing the action
associated with that AnimData block (i.e. via the "Animation Data" panel in the
NLA Editor), as well as other operations which I've had on the todolist for a
while. Stay tuned!
