This is a standard Hue - Saturation - Lightness model
(see for instance entry on wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV)
Note though the difference between HSV and HSL saturation, which are not the same.
The advantage of having this color selection scheme is that artists can select
shades and tints of a color easily by using the lightness slider. Also colors
are arranged on (approximated) perceived lightness on the color wheel.
Beware, Old files opened with this preference saved will crash!

This mitigates T38505, where moving the mouse while using the wheel/keys
can exit the submenu.
So at least smaller unintentional movements won't be misinterpreted.
Previously 1/3 of the button was used to decrement, 1/3 to edit and 1/3 to
increment. However with the number text now right aligned this meant that
the increment area would overlap the number text, which is confusing. So it
was made to smaller to only cover the arrows.
It's not as easy to click but I don't know of a better solution with right
aligned number text.
- swap Z/Y axis so Z changes hue and X/Y change location.
this way you can use ndof like a joystick and Z rotation like a dial
for the hue.
- change sensitivity when shift is held to be 1/5th
On every redraw a single unopened dropdown boxe would translate
and convert every EnumPropertyItem into a string,
then decode every item, and search those items to find the name of the button to draw.
Replace this with a custom menu callback for RNA enums,
tooltips for enums now show too.
COLOR widgets never get created with UI_GRAD_V_ALT values. This is
intended for HSVCUBE color sliders only so reverting this to old value
before it was substituted with a define, which was -1.
There's one case where COLOR buttons get defined with a1 value different
than -1 which is in ui_def_but_rna. There the step value of the RNA
property is used. However, that meant that if step equaled to 9, which
is UI_GRAD_V_ALT value (unlikely) or if UI_GRAD_V_ALT was changed to 10
in future, or we added check for e.g. UI_GRAD_L_ALT which is 10 in HCL
branch, color widget would not get a color selection menu spawned.
Adds some padding to the left of the icon, adds more space around the separator
line and make it more visible, and add some spacing at the top and bottom of
the menu. Ref T37794

Was using a different font size with selection and drawing,
But scaling both so they mostly matched.
This made selection shift noticeably when done on an interface zoomed in/out.
- works by defining panel categories, currently restricted to the toolbar.
- no panels define bl_categories yet, so no user visible changes since tabs only show when there are multiple.
- panel pinning is available in rmb menu or alt+lmb.
Patch by Brecht, with minor edits by myself, thanks a lot!
Tech details: previous drag-resize handling code was based on the assumption that coords
returned by ui_window_to_block() was relative to the bottom on the uiBlock.
This is in fact completly eroneous, usually this func does not translate at all the coords,
it merely rescale them - except for blocks inside panels, where returned values are relative
to the left/bottom corner of the panel... Pretty confusing, solution for now is to store ref mouse
position in window space, and convert them to block each time, just like current mouse pos.
There is a bunch of internal refactoring going on too:
* No longer use operators to handle these directory and file fields, only makes
things more complicated than they should be.
* Handle autocomplete partial/full match deeper in the UI code
* Directory field still does not keep focus, that's for another time to fix,
you can already do pretty quick keyboard only navigation with the file field.
