Only regions with alignment set should be toggle-able. If this is not
set, then the region is likely either a main region, or entirely hidden
by the user (not just collapsed).
For many users, this will make the File Browser window behave more like
what they would expect. It addresses the issue of the File Browser
becoming hidden behind the main window by clicking anywhere in the
latter. It communicates the interruptive, but temporary nature of the
operation a bit better.
Further, on tiling window managers the File Browser now opens as
floating by default, like in other applications.
Note that this also makes sure the File Browser is always opened as
separate window, so it doesn't re-use the Preferences, or any other
temporary window anymore. This seems to have been a common annoyance.
More concretely, this makes the File Browser window behave as follows:
* Stays on top of its parent Blender window, but not on top of
non-Blender windows.
* Minimizes with its parent window
* Can be moved independently
* Doesn't add an own item in task bars
* Doesn't block other Blender windows (we may want to have this though)
* Opens as floating window for tiling window managers (e.g. i3wm/Sway)
Further notes:
* When opening a file browser from the Preference window (or any
temporary window), the main window, as the file browsers parent is
moved on top of the Preferences, which makes it seem like the
Preferences were closed. This is the general issue of bad secondary
window handling as window activation changes. I made it so that the
window is moved back once the file browser is closed.
This behavior is confusing and would be nice to avoid. It's a separate
issue though.
* On most window managers on Linux the temporary window can not be
minimized and maximized, they disable that for dialog windows.
* On Windows and macOS, only minimizing is disabled, as there is no
decent way yet to restore a window if it's not shown in the taskbar.

Part of T69652.
There was a mix of old and new constants. Now have one list of WM_CURSOR_*
cursor types, using GHOST standard cursors when available and otherwise falling
back to our custom cursors.
Ref D5197
Currently unused, but will allow to keep of an owner of the depsgraph.
Could also simplify other APIs in the future by avoiding to pass bmain
explicitly to relation update functions and things like that.
This is a general redesign of the File Browser GUI and interaction
methods. For screenshots, check patch D5601.
Main changes in short:
* File Browser as floating window
* New layout of regions
* Popovers for view and filter options
* Vertical list view with interactive column header
* New and updated icons
* Keymap consistency fixes
* Many tweaks and fixes to the drawing of views
----
General:
* The file browser now opens as temporary floating window. It closes on
Esc. The header is hidden then.
* When the file browser is opened as regular editor, the header remains
visible.
* All file browser regions are now defined in Python (the button
layout).
* Adjusted related operator UI names.
Keymap:
Keymap is now consistent with other list-based views in Blender, such as
the Outliner.
* Left click to select, double-click to open
* Right-click context menus
* Shift-click to fill selection
* Ctrl-click to extend selection
Operator options:
These previously overlapped with the source list, which caused numerous
issues with resizing and presenting many settings in a small panel area.
It was also generally inconsistent with Blender.
* Moved to new sidebar, which can easily be shown or hidden using a
prominent Options toggle.
* IO operators have new layouts to match this new sidebar, using
sub-panels. This will have to be committed separately (Add-on
repository).
* If operators want to show the options by default, they have the option
to do so (see `WM_FILESEL_SHOW_PROPS`, `hide_props_region`), otherwise
they are hidden by default.
General Layout:
The layout has been changed to be simpler, more standard, and fits
better in with Blender 2.8.
* More conventional layout (file path at top, file name at the bottom,
execute/cancel buttons in bottom right).
* Use of popovers to group controls, and allow for more descriptive
naming.
* Search box is always live now, just like Outliner.
Views:
* Date Modified column combines both date and time, also uses user
friendly strings for recent dates (i.e. "Yesterday", "Today").
* Details columns (file size, modification date/time) are now toggleable
for all display types, they are not hardcoded per display type.
* File sizes now show as B, KB, MB, ... rather than B, KiB, MiB, … They
are now also calculated using base 10 of course.
* Option to sort in inverse order.
Vertical List View:
* This view now used a much simpler single vertical list with columns
for information.
* Users can click on the headers of these columns to order by that
category, and click again to reverse the ordering.
Icons:
* Updated icons by Jendrzych, with better centering.
* Files and folders have new icons in Icon view.
* Both files and folders have reworked superimposed icons that show
users the file/folder type.
* 3D file documents correctly use the 3d file icon, which was unused
previously.
* Workspaces now show their icon on Link/Append - also when listed in
the Outliner.
Minor Python-API breakage:
* `bpy.types.FileSelectParams.display_type`: `LIST_SHORT` and
`LIST_LONG` are replaced by `LIST_VERTICAL` and `LIST_HORIZONTAL`.
Removes the feature where directories would automatically be created if
they are entered into the file path text button, but don't exist. We
were not sure if users use it enough to keep it. We can definitely bring
it back.

This patch updates it to:
```

This change ensures that operators which needs access to evaluated data
first makes sure there is a dependency graph.
Other accesses to the dependency graph made it more explicit about
whether they just need a valid dependency graph pointer or whether they
expect the graph to be already evaluated.
This replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA which is now removed.
Some general rules about usage of accessors:
- Drawing is expected to happen from a fully evaluated dependency graph.
There is now a function to access it, which will in the future control
that dependency graph is actually evaluated.
This check is not yet done because there are some things to be taken
care about first: for example, post-update hooks might leave scene in
a state where something is still tagged for update.
- All operators which needs to access evaluated state must use
CTX_data_ensure_evaluated_depsgraph().
This function replaces OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA.
The call is generally to be done in the very beginning of the
operator, prior other logic (unless this is some comprehensive
operator which might or might not need access to an evaluated state).
This call is never to be used from a loop.
If some utility function requires evaluated state of dependency graph
the graph is to be passed as an explicit argument. This way it is
clear that no evaluation happens in a loop or something like this.
- All cases which needs to know dependency graph pointer, but which
doesn't want to actually evaluate it can use old-style function
CTX_data_depsgraph_pointer(), assuming that underlying code will
ensure dependency graph is evaluated prior to accessing it.
- The new functions are replacing OPTYPE_USE_EVAL_DATA, so now it is
explicit and local about where dependency graph is being ensured.
This commit also contains some fixes of wrong usage of evaluation
functions on original objects. Ideally should be split out, but in
reality with all the APIs being renamed is quite tricky.

When a mesh is pinned in the properties panel, Blender crashes when you
click the "Add Custom Split Normals Data".
The code calls `ob = ED_object_context(C)` which returns NULL when the
mesh is pinned in the properties panel, causing a segfault when trying
to get the mesh via `ob->data`.
A new function `ED_mesh_context(C)` avoids this by first checking
whether a mesh was pinned in the context. If not, it checks the pinned
object's data. If that's not there, or it's not a mesh, it returns the
active object's mesh. Finally it returns NULL if there is no active
object, or if the active object is not a mesh object.

It was possible to have animation player step happening after manual
jump prior to the dependency graph evaluation.
Now we forbid changing scene frame if it was manually requested to
be changed.
This change makes it so sound handles are created for evaluated scene,
sequencer and speakers. This allows to have properly evaluated animation
on them.
For the viewport playback sound uses regular dependency graph.
For the final render sound uses dependency graph created for render pipeline,
which now also contains sequencer and sound datablocks.
All the direct sound update calls are replaced with corresponding dependency
graph recalc tag.
This reverts part of commit b7eba20236. Polling
is causing issues in scripts, and the minor usability improvements are not worth
the extra work this may cause at this point in the release cycle.

No major API change here, only in the outliner restriction column
variables (e.g., show_restrict_column_selectable > show_restrict_column_select).
* Get rid of _INSTANCE (introduced on b1af682001).
* Differentiate (everywhere but the API) between HIDE (temporary) and VIEWPORT (global).
* Use the expected icon for restrict viewport (same as objects and modifiers).
* selectable > select
See T61578 for discussions and mockups.
Visibility Options
==================
We are adding more granular control over restriction columns in the outliner,
exposing "indirect only" and "holdout" as options, and change the way
users enable/disable collections in a viewlayer.
We also rename the object viewport restriction to hide instance.
So the options we have are:
Collection
----------
* Render Visibility
* Instance Visibility
* Selectable
(View) Layer Collection
-----------------------
* Enable
* Holdout
* Indirect Only
* Viewport
Shortcuts
=========
Isolate Collection
------------------
* Ctr + click isolates the collection.
It turns all its parents and children "visible", and all the other
collections "invisible".
If ALL the collections were already properly set, we re-set the
collections to their default value.
Set Collection Inside Collections and Objects
---------------------------------------------
* Shift + click: Set/unset inside collections and objects.
We only set objects values as well when we are in View Layer mode and
(obviously) when the objects have a matching property.
Icons
=====
Little reminder that we will need better icons for holdout, indirect only, and
probably instanced (nothing wrong with the current, but it differs from
the proposal when it is turned off).
Also, we need to decide where do we want the modifier/bones/... icons to
be (in which column) and ideally make sure their icons match the ones we
use for collections/objects.
At the moment those are using the screen icon, which is not being used
by collections.

This happened to be a bigger rabbit hole to hell than it originally seemed,
and there are higher priority design tasks to be handled (at this point high
priority design task is more important than high priority bug fix).

Was required to have AV-sync enabled. and then simply play playback
would have triggered an assert.
In release builds the sync would have happened to a wrong frame.
Quite straightforward change, which makes it so audio handles are
only created inside of evaluated datablocks.
Exception is adding sound strip to the sequencer, which needs an
audio handle to query length and number of channels. This is done
by temporarily loading sound file into an original datablock, and
then tossing it away.
There is an assert in sound.c which verifies that audio system is
used from an evaluated domain, which should help porting all the
cases which are likely missed by this commit.
Some annoying parts:
- `BKE_sound_update_scene()` is iterating over all bases, and does
special ID tags to see whether sound has been handled or not
already. This can not be done the old fashion now.
Ideally, this will be done as a speaker datablock evaluation,
but seems that would require a lock since audio API is not safe
for threading. So this is not a desired way i'd say.
Possible solution here would be to iterate over ID datablocks
using dependency graph query API.
- Frame jump needs to call `BKE_sound_seek_scene()` directly
because there might be some flags assigned to the scene which
could be clear after operator execution is over.
Need to verify if that's the case though. This is a bit hairy
code, so sticking to a safest and known to work approach for
now.
- Removed check for format when opening new sound file.
Maybe we can have some utility function which queries channel
and duration information, leaving the caller's code clean and
tidy.
Tested following cases:
- Adding/removing/moving sequencer's sound strips.
- Adding/moving speakers in viewport.
- Rendering audio.
