Partially reverts 2250b5cefe.
Removing the user count and fake user count icons was controversial (which was
expected) and there are a few further changes needed, that won't make it in
time for the release, see D9946.
While there is a design to bring back the user count and fake user indicators,
a new design idea was proposed that the UI team wants to follow. This came too
late for the 2.92 release, the new design is targeted at the 2.93 release now.
Meanwhile, UI team decision was to simply revert the design changes.
The new design is being worked on in https://developer.blender.org/T84669.
Note that this commit does not revert some internal changes done in
2250b5cefe. Namely the introduction of `ed_util_ops.c` and data-block
operators in there. These will still be needed in the new design.

Approximately 138 changes in the spelling of compound words
and proper names like "Light Probe", "Shrink/Fatten", "Face Map".
In many cases, hyphens were used where they aren't correct, like
"re-fit". Other common changes include:
- "Datablock" -> "data-block"
- "Floating point" -> "floating-point"
- "Ngons" -> "n-gons"
These changes help give the language used in the interface
a consistent, more professional feel.

The previous design is rather old and has a couple of problems:
* Scalability: The current solution of adding little icon buttons next to the
data-block name field doesn't scale well. It only works if there's a small
number of operations. We need to be able to place more items there for better
data-block management. Especially with the introduction of library overrides.
* Discoverability: It's not obvious what some of the icons do. They appear and
disappear, but it's not obvious why some are available at times and others
not.
* Unclear Status: Currently their library status (linked, indirectly linked,
broken link, library override) isn't really clear.
* Unusual behavior: Some of the icon buttons allow Shift or Ctrl clicking to
invoke alternative behaviors. This is not a usual pattern in Blender.
This patch does the following changes:
* Adds a menu to the right of the name button to access all kinds of operations
(create, delete, unlink, user management, library overrides, etc).
* Make good use of the "disabled hint" for tooltips, to explain why buttons are
disabled. The UI team wants to establish this as a good practise.
* Use superimposed icons for duplicate and unlink, rather than extra buttons
(uses less space, looks less distracting and is a nice + consistent design
language).
* Remove fake user and user count button, they are available from the menu now.
* Support tooltips for superimposed icons (committed mouse hover feedback to
master already).
* Slightly increase size of the name button - it was already a bit small
before, and the move from real buttons to superimposed icons reduces usable
space for the name itself.
* More clearly differentiate between duplicate and creating a new data-block.
The latter is only available in the menu.
* Display library status icon on the left (linked, missing library, overridden,
asset)
* Disables "Make Single User" button - in review we weren't sure if there are
good use-cases for it, so better to see if we can remove it.
Note that I do expect some aspects of this design to change still. I think some
changes are problematic, but others disagreed. I will open a feedback thread on
devtalk to see what others think.

Design discussed and agreed on with the UI team, also see T79959.
This patch adds support for AOVs in EEVEE. AOV Outputs can be defined in the
render pass tab and used in shader materials. Both Object and World based
shaders are supported. The AOV can be previewed in the viewport using the
renderpass selector in the shading popover.
AOV names that conflict with other AOVs are automatically corrected. AOV
conflicts with render passes get a warning icon. The reason behind this is that
changing render engines/passes can change the conflict, but you might not notice
it. Changing this automatically would also make the materials incorrect, so best
to leave this to the user.
**Implementation**
The patch adds a copies the AOV structures of Cycles into Blender. The goal is
that the Cycles will use Blenders AOV defintions. In the Blender kernel
(`layer.c`) the logic of these structures are implemented.
The GLSL shader of any GPUMaterial can hold multiple outputs (the main output
and the AOV outputs) based on the renderPassUBO the right output is selected.
This selection uses an hash that encodes the AOV structure. The full AOV needed
to be encoded when actually drawing the material pass as the AOV type changes
the behavior of the AOV. This isn't known yet when the GLSL is compiled.
**Future Developments**
* The AOV definitions in the render layer panel isn't shared with Cycles.
Cycles should be migrated to use the same viewlayer aovs. During a previous
attempt this failed as the AOV validation in cycles and in Blender have
implementation differences what made it crash when an aov name was invalid.
This could be fixed by extending the external render engine API.
* Add support to Cycles to render AOVs in the 3d viewport.
* Use a drop down list for selecting AOVs in the AOV Output node.
* Give user feedback when multiple AOV output nodes with the same AOV name
exists in the same shader.
* Fix viewing single channel images in the image editor [T83314]
* Reduce viewport render time by only render needed draw passes. [T83316]

Those were only shallow wrappers around `BKE_id_copy`, barely used (even
fully unused in some cases), and we want to get rid of those ID-specific
helpers for the common ID management tasks. Also prevents weird custom
behaviors (like `BKE_object_copy`, who was the only basic ID copy
function to reset user count of the new copy to zero).
Part of 71219.
Note that possibility to pass the new ID pointer as parameter was kept,
as this is needed for some rather specific cases (like in depsgraph/COW,
when copying into already allocated memory).
Part of T71219.
This was already changed for Material nodetrees on duplication in
rBa75ac18638f4.
Since it is not obvious from the UI how change World actions - and to be
consistent with Material actions, it is best to copy the action as the
default behavior.
So use generic BKE_id_copy functions with LIB_ID_COPY_ACTIONS flag [which
also enables us to get rid of `BKE_world_copy`]
Note: taking the User Preference `USER_DUP_ACT` into account here (for
both material and world actions) could be a followup step.

Those two functions had `BKE_` prefix, were defined in BKE headers, but
implemented in ED code, yuck.
Moved everything to ED area for now, since those do not look fondamental
enough to belong to BKE, and none of their usages requires it currently.
Use this utility function for render-shading & weight paint modes.
This adds support for edit-mode & pose-mode where all objects in the
mode are used in this case instead of the selected objects.
This is useful to run in object-mode, instead of from the property editor,
note that this still only used the current object when activated from
the property editor.
Some implementation have different maximum texture size.
This patch avoid crash when texture allocation fails when:
- trying to bake a lightcache too big for the OpenGL imeplementaion.
- loading a cache from file that is too big for the OpenGL imeplementation.
Build a temp matarray storing materials from obdata and source object
(depending on slots 'allocation' of source object), and assign those to
targets.
Also remove limitation of 'using same obdata is forbidden', just never
edit obdata materials in that case...
Certainly not perfect, but already much better than existing code.
The `BKE_animsys.h` and `anim_sys.c` files already had a an "AnimData
API" section. The code in that section has now been split off, and
placed into `BKE_anim_data.h` and `anim_data.c`.
All files that used to include `BKE_animsys.h` have been adjusted to
only include the animation headers they need (sometimes none).
No functional changes.
Follow up of b2ee1770d4 and 10c2254d41, part of T74432.
Now the area and region naming conventions should be less confusing.
Mostly a careful batch rename but had to do few smaller fixes.
Also ran clang-format on affected files.
Modify the view layer add operator (and underlying `BKE_view_layer_add`)
to allow for copying the current view layer, as well as adding a new one
but with all LayerCollections disabled by default (this is important for
heavy scenes where currently adding view layers can take a long time due
to enabling every collection by default).

This was already supported in "Select" & "Deselect" but not in "Assign".
So similar to rB6b39dc7672eb, we now check if the material corresponding

The old layout of `PointerRNA` was confusing for historic reasons:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct {
void *data;
} id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
This patch updates it to:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct ID *owner_id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
Throughout the code base `id.data` was replaced with `owner_id`.
Furthermore, many explicit pointer type casts were added which
were implicit before. Some type casts to `ID *` were removed.

This change ensures that operators which needs access to evaluated data
first makes sure there is a dependency graph.
Other accesses to the dependency graph made it more explicit about
whether they just need a valid dependency graph pointer or whether they
expect the graph to be already evaluated.
This replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA which is now removed.
Some general rules about usage of accessors:
- Drawing is expected to happen from a fully evaluated dependency graph.
There is now a function to access it, which will in the future control
that dependency graph is actually evaluated.
This check is not yet done because there are some things to be taken
care about first: for example, post-update hooks might leave scene in
a state where something is still tagged for update.
- All operators which needs to access evaluated state must use
CTX_data_ensure_evaluated_depsgraph().
This function replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA.
The call is generally to be done in the very beginning of the
operator, prior other logic (unless this is some comprehensive
operator which might or might not need access to an evaluated state).
This call is never to be used from a loop.
If some utility function requires evaluated state of dependency graph
the graph is to be passed as an explicit argument. This way it is
clear that no evaluation happens in a loop or something like this.
- All cases which needs to know dependency graph pointer, but which
doesn't want to actually evaluate it can use old-style function
CTX_data_depsgraph_pointer(), assuming that underlying code will
ensure dependency graph is evaluated prior to accessing it.
- The new functions are replacing OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA, so now it is
explicit and local about where dependency graph is being ensured.
This commit also contains some fixes of wrong usage of evaluation
functions on original objects. Ideally should be split out, but in
reality with all the APIs being renamed is quite tricky.
Fixes T67454: Blender crash on rapid undo and select
Speculation here is that sometimes undo and selection operators are
sometimes handled in the same event loop iteration, which leaves
non-evaluated dependency graph.

The goal is to prevent assignment of temporary or evaluated meshes
to objects from the main database.
Majority of the change is actually related on passing reports around.
On a positive side there are more error prints which can become more
visible to scripters.
There are still possible further improvements in the related areas.
For example, disable user counting for evaluated ID datablocks when
assignment happens. But can also happen later on as a separate
