Idea is, instead of ignoring completely missing linked datablocks, to
create void placeholders for them.
That way, you can work on your file, save it, and find again your missing data once
lib becomes available again. Or you can edit missing lib's path (in Outliner),
save and reload the file, and you are done.
Also, Outliner now shows broken libraries (and placeholders) with a 'broken lib' icon.
Future plans are also to be able to relocate missing libs and reload them at runtime.
Code notes:
- Placeholder ID is just a regular datablock of same type as expected linked one,
with 'default' data, and a LIB_MISSING bitflag set.
- To allow creation of such datablocks, creation of datablocks in BKE was split in two step:
+ Allocation of memory itself.
+ Setting of all internal data to default values.

Propper fix reverting most of rB60e70c0c6014e5, which was only partial specific fix.
This code uses generic `BKE_id_lib_local_paths()` func to handle all possible paths.

Simply have to rebase onto main filepath when copying, if source datablock is lib and path is relative.
Afaict, only affected Image and Text datablocks. MovieClip would also be a candidate, but has
no copy implemented currently.
Issue was caused by _wstat returning EOVERFLOW error because
of file size didn't fit into stat structure which was using
long datatype.
The idea of this patch is to use _wstat64 and _stat64 structure
which is capable storing 64bit file sizes.
Made it a typedef for stat structure used by BLI_stat function
in order to make code easier to follow and avoid ifdefs all
over the place.
Additionally solved issue with BLI_exists which was wrongly
returning False in cases destination file is larger then 4GB.
Previously this only worked for some datablocks relevant to rendering, now it
can be used to detect if any type of datablock was added or removed (but not
yet to detect if it was modified, we need many more depsgraph tags for that).
Most of the changes are some function parameter changes, the important parts
are the DAG_id_type_tag calls.

When tabs to spaces is enabled and a paste command is undone, the improper number of characters could get removed. Also fixed issue with shift + left/right only selecting a max of 1 character.
the way Curve.len is used at the moment is really stupid, calculate string size on save for now, but should really store the length in bytes and total number of characters.
An optional 'internal' argument was added to the bpy.data.texts.load() operator.
The changes in revision 57153 were reverted, so that the is_in_memory and is_dirty
properties of text datablocks are not editable again.
In the C API layer, BKE_text_load_ex() was introduced to allow for optionally
making text datablocks internal after loading.
Suggested by Brecht Van Lommel and Campbell Barton through code review comments.
Previously style modules were external Python script files whose absolute paths
were kept in .blend files. Now style modules are stored in .blend files as text
datablocks.
Style modules are configured in three steps:
1. Open an external style module file (or create a new text datablock) in the
Text Editor in Blender.
2. Add a style module to the list of style modules (by pressing the "Add" button)
in the Render Layer properties window.
3. Click the name entry and select the style module from the drop-down menu.
