When weight painting the bone overlay is extremely intrusive,
effectively requiring either extensive use of hiding individual
bones, or disabling the whole bone overlay between selections.
This addresses the issue by adding a bone opacity slider that
is used for the 'wireframe' armature drawing mode. It directly
controls the uniform opacity as a straightforward option.

This commit inserts a new menu item into the export menu called
"Wavefront OBJ (.obj) - New".
For now the old Python exporter remains in the menu, along with
the Python importer, but we plan to remove it soon (leaving the
old addon bundled with Blender but not enabled by default).
Calculates the angle in radians between two faces that meet at an edge.
0 to PI in either direction with flat being 0 and folded over on itself PI.
If there are not 2 faces on the edge, the angle will be 0.
For valid edges, the angle is the same as the 'edge angle' overlay.
For the Face and Point domain, the node uses simple interpolation to calculate a value.

This function node creates a running total of a given Vector, Float, or
Int field.
Inputs:
- Value: The field to be accumulated
- Group Index: The values of this input are used to aggregate the input
into separate 'bins', creating multiple accumulations.
Outputs:
- Leading and Trailing: Returns the running totals starting
at either the first value of each accumulations or 0 respectively.
- Total: Returns the total accumulation at all positions of the field.
There's currently plenty of duplicate work happening when multiple outputs
are used that could be optimized by a future refactor to field inputs.

This evaluator is used in order to evaluate subdivision at render time, allowing for
faster renders of meshes with a subdivision surface modifier placed at the last
position in the modifier list.
When evaluating the subsurf modifier, we detect whether we can delegate evaluation
to the draw code. If so, the subdivision is first evaluated on the GPU using our own
custom evaluator (only the coarse data needs to be initially sent to the GPU), then,
buffers for the final `MeshBufferCache` are filled on the GPU using a set of
compute shaders. However, some buffers are still filled on the CPU side, if doing so
on the GPU is impractical (e.g. the line adjacency buffer used for x-ray, whose
logic is hardly GPU compatible).
This is done at the mesh buffer extraction level so that the result can be readily used
in the various OpenGL engines, without having to write custom geometry or tesselation
shaders.
We use our own subdivision evaluation shaders, instead of OpenSubDiv's vanilla one, in
order to control the data layout, and interpolation. For example, we store vertex colors
as compressed 16-bit integers, while OpenSubDiv's default evaluator only work for float
types.
In order to still access the modified geometry on the CPU side, for use in modifiers
or transform operators, a dedicated wrapper type is added `MESH_WRAPPER_TYPE_SUBD`.
Subdivision will be lazily evaluated via `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh` which will
create such a wrapper if possible. If the final subdivision surface is not needed on
the CPU side, `BKE_object_get_evaluated_mesh_no_subsurf` should be used.
Enabling or disabling GPU subdivision can be done through the user preferences (under
Viewport -> Subdivision).

This adds interface panels to organize the Cache File UI parameters for
modifiers and constraints into related components: velocity, time, and
render procedural.
Properties relating to the three aforementioned components are separated
from `uiTemplateCacheFile` into their own functions (e.g.
`uiTemplateCacheFileVelocity` for the velocity one), which are in turn
called from the specific panel creation routines of the modifiers and
constraints (for constraints, the functions are exposed to the RNA).
`uiTemplateCacheFile` now only shows the properties for the file path,
and in the case of constraints, the scale property.
The properties that are only defined per modifier (like the velocity
scale), are shown in the proper modifier layout panel if applicable.

This node calculates the dual of the input mesh. This means that faces
get replaced with vertices and vertices with faces. In principle this
only makes sense when the mesh in manifold, but there is an option to
keep the (non-manifold) boundaries of the mesh intact.
Attributes are propagated:
- Point domain goes to face domain and vice versa
- Edge domain and Face corner domain gets mapped to itself
Because of the duality, when the mesh is manifold, the attributes get
mapped to themselves when applying the node twice.
Thanks to Leul Mulugeta (@Leul) for help with the
ascii diagrams in the code comments.
Note that this does not work well with some non-manifold geometry,
like an edge connected to more than 2 faces, or a vertex connected to
only two faces, while not being in the boundary. This is because there
is no good way to define the dual at some of those points. This type
of non-manifold vertices are just removed for this reason.

When a manual frame range is set, allow marking an action as having
Cyclic Animation. This does not affect how the action is evaluated,
but the Cycle-Aware Keying option will automatically make any newly
added F-Curves cyclic. This allows using the option from the start
to build the cycle, rather than only for tweaking an existing loop.
The curves are made cyclic when they have only one key, either
after inserting the first key, or before adding the second one.
The latter case avoids the need to manually make the first added
curve cyclic after marking a newly added action cyclic.

Some operations, e.g. adding a new action strip to NLA, require
knowing the active frame range of an action. However, currently it
can only be deduced by scanning the keyframes of the curves within
it. This is not ideal if e.g. curves are staggered for overlap.
As suggested by Nathan Vegdahl in comments to T54724, this patch adds
Action properties that allow manually specifying its active frame range.
The settings are exposed via a panel in the Dopesheet and Action Editor.
When enabled, the range is highlighted in the background using a striped
fill to distinguish it from the solid filled regular playback range.
When set, the frame range is used when adding or updating NLA tracks,
and by add-ons using `Action.frame_range`, e.g. FBX exporter.

So rather than having two operators for refreshing asset library data,
have one that just handles both cases, until they converge into one.
