Especially with new undo/redo it is even less recommended to perform
complex operations in those callbacks, they should remain as fast and
localized as possible.
Also updated the section about undo/redo a bit.
We still had a few deprecated assignements of `bpy.props.xxx` to class
members in our API documentation and one of our py tests. Annotations
are to be used now.
Also remove the section about `register_module` utils, this has been
removed in 2.8.
Fix T71877: Python API overview sample code warning: class MyMaterialProps contains a property which should be an annotation!
Fix T71876: Python API overview references old bpy.utils.register_module function
In a separate step, all new functions should be added.
However, the best way to do this, is not clear yet.
A list of functions, that have to be added is available
in D4280.

As exposed in T62406, we can have some rare cases of crashes due to
memory re-allocation happening outside of expected scenarii.
Ideally this should be re-designed, but at least keep track of those
known exceptions to general rules...
* Added a TL;DR first paragraph summarizing that one shall not keep any
reference to Blender data when modifying its container.
* Added some info about fact that adding items to some data containers
(like Collection) can also invalidate existing items (due to array
re-allocation).
* Added a Do/Don't example which shows a crash after adding some items
to a collection.
Related to T61297.
Loop triangles are tessellated triangles create from polygons, for renderers
or exporters that need to match Blender's polygon tesselation exactly. These
are a read-only runtime cache.
Tessfaces are a legacy data structure from before Blender supported n-gons,
and were already mostly removed from the C code.
Details on porting code to loop triangles is in the release notes.

Maybe it's still early to set the new drawing api for python.
But joining these two modules is an initial step.
```
>>> gpu.
matrix
select
types
```
```
>>> gpu.types.GPU
Batch(
OffScreen(
VertBuf(
VertFormat(
```
The creation of a new offscreen object is now done by the `GPUOffscreen.__new__` method.
