Expand the motion path frame range options with an extra option "Manual
Range". When chosen, Blender will not automatically update the path
range any more.
Additionally, the start/end frame fields are greyed out in the UI when
one of the automatic range options is selected (i.e. all but the new
"Manual Range" one). It is still possible to set the start/end frame
temporarily, but the original behaviour (of recomputing those on update)
remains.
Manifest Task: T101522
Motivation is to disambiguate on the naming level what the matrix
actually means. It is very easy to understand the meaning backwards,
especially since in Python the name goes the opposite way (it is
called `world_matrix` in the Python API).
It is important to disambiguate the naming without making developers
to look into the comment in the header file (which is also not super
clear either). Additionally, more clear naming facilitates the unit
verification (or, in this case, space validation) when reading an
expression.
This patch calls the matrix `object_to_world` which makes it clear
from the local code what is it exactly going on. This is only done
on DNA level, and a lot of local variables still follow the old
naming.
A DNA rename is setup in a way that there is no change on the file
level, so there should be no regressions at all.
The possibility is to add `_matrix` or `_mat` suffix to the name
to make it explicit that it is a matrix. Although, not sure if it
really helps the readability, or is it something redundant.

Removes the following macros for scene/render frame values:
- `CFRA`
- `SUBFRA`
- `SFRA`
- `EFRA`
These macros don't add much, other than saving a few characters when typing.
It's not immediately clear what they refer to, they just hide what they
actually access. Just be explicit and clear about that.
Plus these macros gave read and write access to the variables, so eyesores like
this would be done (eyesore because it looks like assigning to a constant):
```
CFRA = some_frame_nbr;
```

Motion paths can now be initialised to more sensible frame ranges,
rather than simply 1-250:
- Scene Frame Range
- Selected Keyframes

This reverts commit 1558b270e9.
An earlier commit (rB101fadcf6b93c) introduced some new functionality,
which was overlooked in reviewing this commit & got broken.
Will re-commit after the issue has been fixed.

rather than simply 1-250:
- Scene Frame Range
- Selected Keyframes
- All Keyframes
The Motion Paths operators are now also added to the Object context menu
and the Dopesheet context menu.
The scene range operator was removed, because the operators now
automatically find the range when baking the motion paths.
The clear operator now appears separated in "Selected Only" and "All",
because it was not clear for the user what the button was doing.

Change data structure of keylists. Reducing the balancing overhead and therefore increases performance.
| **Function** | **Master** | **Patch** |
|`draw_summary_channel`| 0.202105s| 0.083874s |
When adding items to the keylist it will store it in a linked list. This linked list is
accompanied with the length (key_len) and a `last_accessed_column`. last_accessed_column is a cursor
that improve the performance when adding new items as they are mostly ordered by frame numbers.
last_accessed_column is reset when a new fcurve/mask/... is added to the keylist.
Before searching or array access. the listbase needs to be converted to an array.
`ED_keylist_prepare_for_direct_access`. After that the caller can use
`ED_keylist_find_*` or `ED_keylist_array*` functions.
The internal array can also be accessed via the `ED_keylist_listbase` function.
The items inside the array link to the previous/next item in the list.

For T78995 we want to change the data structure of keylists to
improve performance. (Probably a Vector with bin-search capabilities).
This patch hides the internal structure of the keylists behind `AnimKeylist`
structure. This allows us to change the internals without 'breaking' where it is
being used.
The change adds functions to create, free, find and walk over the
keylist.

The `BKE_animsys.h` and `anim_sys.c` files already had a an "AnimData
API" section. The code in that section has now been split off, and
placed into `BKE_anim_data.h` and `anim_data.c`.
All files that used to include `BKE_animsys.h` have been adjusted to
only include the animation headers they need (sometimes none).
No functional changes.
This change makes it so motion paths are using minimal possible
dependency graph which is sufficient to evaluate required motion
path targets.
Disclaimer: granularity is done on ID level, but it is possible
to go more granular if really needed.

The idea is to only update parts of motion paths which lies between
keyframes around changed frame.
The changed frames are considered to be from second previous to
second next one to work correctly with bezier handles interpolation.
Brings updates in the Rain test animation file from around 11 sec
down to 1 sec.
Having this in blenkernel caused bad level calls to bf_editors_anim,
causing tests that use 'blenkernel' to require almost all libraries.
