Previously, if a boolean happened to use an icon there was no way
to make it display as a check-box from Python scripts.
The previous logic meant we ended up having to edit the RNA.
Since booleans with icons don't work well with the split-property layout
(now used for most of the interface).
Icons were being removed from RNA then added back using awkward Python
ternary expressions in the interface scripts.
The toggle argument now has an unset state (-1).
- toggle=True: no checkbox (emboss).
- toggle=False: always use a checkbox (no icon).
- toggle=(unset/-1): depends on the icon status, default as before.
Since toggle=False was default, this isn't used in existing UI logic.
The outliner should not be the only way for users to change these settings.
The Python API was extended to keep these properties positive and keyframable.

This also makes `IDP_CopyProperty` the "opposite"
of `IDP_FreeProperty`, which is what I'd expect.
Two refactoring steps:
* rename IDP_FreeProperty to IDP_FreePropertyContent
* new IDP_FreeProperty function that actually frees the property

All buttons will get their own block's `func` by default, this cannot be
considered an error, do not assert in that case either.
Fixes bunch of very annoying asserts e.g. when using FBX exporter...
As mentioned in the comment, the icon width computation relies on
big enough margins; however in compact mode they aren't big enough
and the label gets truncated.
Expanding enum items in a small area would render the names with
dots, what is a bad solution. When you use expand directly on a
`grid_flow` or `column_flow`, it will render the items on multiple
lines, giving more control to the developer.

Use this for the save confirmation dialog so it has a default action
when pressing enter which draws with a highlight so it's clear what the
default action is (the dialog was just closing before).

A version for menu's is going to be added next and we already have
UILayout.prop_menu_enum.
This name indicates the popover is added behavior instead of a
different kind of widget.
Support for RNA enum buttons that activate popovers when clicked.
This means we get useful tooltips, shortcuts and Ctrl-Wheel cycling
over enum items.
It also avoids inconvenient & slow access of enum values currently done
via RNA type lookups on the type to get the name & icon to use for a
regular popover button.

When the line width was larger than the UI scale, there was not enough
space for thicker widget outlines to draw properly. Now widgets are made
a little larger to accommodate the thicker outlines.

BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.

Does the following changes visible to users:
* Use panels and sub-panels for more structured & logical grouping
* Re-organized options more logically than before (see images in D4148)
* Use flow layout (single column by default).
* New layout uses horizontal margin if there's enough space.
* Change size of Preferences window to suit new layout.
* Move keymap related options from "Input" into own section.
* Own, left-bottom aligned region for Save Preferences button.
* Adjustments of names, tooltips & icons.
* Move buttons from header into the main region (except editor switch).
* Hide Preferences header when opened in temporary window.
* Use full area width for header.
* Don't use slider but regular number widget for UI scale.
* Gray out animation player path option if player isn't "Custom"
Internal changes:
* Rearrange RNA properties to match changed UI structure.
* Introduces new "EXECUTE" region type, see reasoning in D3982.
* Changes to panel layout and AZone code for dynamic panel region.
* Bumps subversion and does versioning for new regions.
RNA changes are documented in the release notes:

Design & implementation mostly done by @billreynish and myself.
