Draw thumbnails as strip overlay. This works for movie and image strips.
To draw thumbnails, this overlay has to be enabled and strips must be
tall enough.
The thumbnails are loaded from source file using separate thread and
stored in cache.
Drawing code uses only images stored in cache, and if any is missing,
background rendering job is started. If job can not render thumbnail,
to prevent endless loop of creating job for missing image it sets
`SEQ_FLAG_SKIP_THUMBNAILS` bit of `Sequence` flag.
To prevent visual glitches during timeline panning and zooming, `View2D`
flag `V2D_IS_NAVIGATING` is implemented. If bit is set, drawing code
will look for set of evenly distributed thumbnails that should be
guaranteed to exist and also set of previously displayed thumbnails.
Due to volatile nature of cache these thumbnails can be missing anyway,
in which case no new thumbnails will be drawn for particular strip.
Cache capacity is limited to 5000 thumbnails and performs cleanup of
non visible images when limit is reached.

Operator combines more features and it wasn't very transparent which
properties are used in which feature and how they are used.
Features linked_time, side_of_frame and linked_handle are
isolated, logic moved into own function.
deselect_all property was removed as it practically equals to
!extend in all cases.
Functional change: Dragging existing selection will not change active
strip. Previously this could happen if click happened on strip that
wasn't active.

Add mode to overwrite strips on overlap instead of resolving overlap.
When overlap is created, 3 things can happen:
- On partial overlap, handles of overlapped strip are moved
- On complete overlap with smaller strip, overlapped strip is split
- On complete overlap with larger strip, overlapped strip is removed
This mode can be enabled in header.

We now use a for_each function with callback to iterate through all sequences in the scene.
This has the benefit that we now only loop over the sequences in the scene once.
Before we would loop over them twice and allocate memory to store temporary data.
The allocation of temporary data lead to unintentional memory leaks if the code used returns to exit out of the iteration loop.
The new for_each callback method doesn't allocate any temporary data and only iterates though all sequences once.

When splitting strips, first they are duplicated and then offsets
adjusted. This can fail on cross transitions, because some strips don't
overlap with split frame.
All strips, that relate to each other must be duplicated to ensure
correct relations after splitting, so solution is to delete non
overlapping strips from left or right side respectively.
Since cross transition don't have to overlap with source strips,
splitting such strips would lead to effect being deleted, which
could cause crash when iterating over strips in python. Therefore
splitting of such strips is now forbidden and will generate error.
Splitting of transition will also generate error solely because such
operation is illogical.

Refactor and improve waveform drawing.
Drawing now can use line strips to draw waveforms instead of only
triangle strips. This makes us able to properly visualize thin waveforms
as they would not be visible before. We now also draw the RMS value of
the waveform.
The waveform drawing is now also properly aligned to the screen pixels
to avoid flickering when transforming the strip.

The duration and start time for audio strips were not correctly read in
audaspace.
Some video files have a "lead in" section of audio that plays before the
video starts playing back. Before this patch, we would play this lead in
audio at the same time as the video started and thus the audio would not
be in sync anymore.
Now the lead in audio is cut off and the duration should be correctly
calculated with this in mind.
If the audio starts after the video, the audio strip is shifted to
account for this, but it will also lead to cut off audio which might not
be wanted. However we don't have a simple way to solve this at this
point.

While this was already the case for the most part
some selection operators stored common settings for reuse such as
"toggle", "extend" & "deselect".
Disabling storing these settings for later execution
as it means failure to set these options in the key-map re-uses
the value of the shortcut that was last called.
Skip saving these settings since this is a case where reusing them
isn't helpful.
Resolves T90275.
Originally the operator name was drawn next to the dragging content.
After that there was an option to add custom, static text with the
dragging content. This patch allows dynamic text to be drawn.
The custom text was implemented as out parameter of the poll function
what made the code unclear. This patch introduces a tooltip function
that separates tooltip generation from the poll function.
NOTE: the text should always be returned in its own memory block. This
block will be freed after it is copied in the drag struct.

When image strip is added from python using `image_strip_add` operator
and directory path is not terminated with slash, last part of directory
was ignored.
Use `BLI_join_dirfile` instead of simple string concatenation.
When adding texts or various simple effects I often copy-paste strips
to reuse properties from a template such as font or position. I assume
this is common workflow. Issue with this workflow is, that active strip
is not changed after pasting, so when adjusting property, it is original
strip that is being modified.
This is not issue when duplicating strips - selection state is
transfered to duplicate strips, such that duplicate of active strip is
set to be active and duplicate of selected strip is set to selected.
Implement same selection transfering behavior in paste operator, that
exists in duplicate operator.
Since strip can be deleted after copying, it is not possible to rely
on sequencer state. This is true even when pasting strips to different
scene. Therefore active strip name must be stored in clipboard.

Handle width calculation was incorrect in drawing code. This caused
handles to be invisible when zoomed out.
After fixing math, handles become too large, so now they are constrained
to quarter of strip width, which feels more natural and represents
clickable area more closely.
`sequence_handle_size_get_clamped()` did not return size in pixels, but
in 2D-View space, this comment was corrected.
This patch writes the timecode in the .srt file relative to the start
frame of the scene. If the timecode is global but scene does not start
at frame 0 the subtitles don't match if they get loaded in an external
video player. Muted strips will be ignored. Don't allow negative
timecodes in .srt.

Reduce complexity of sequencer transform code by removing recursivity.
This is possible by treating meta strips (mostly) as any other strip and
containing all transform code within SEQ_ functions.
Unfortunately internally meta strips still require special treatment,
but all complexity from code all over transform code seems to be
possible to contain within one function.
Functional change:
Previously adjusting handle of single image strip moved animation.
Now animation is not moved, which is behavior for all other strips.
