- Add 'Navigation Buttons' preference, used for 2D views
(previously this couldn't be disabled).
- Add "Off" option for 3D view axis.
- Support minimal axis with navigation buttons.
The behavior for loading factory settings wasn't clear for users.
This commit changes the behavior:
- Loading factory settings always disables auto-save
for the current session.
- The internal setting to skip saving on exit is now exposed
in the preferences (when enabled).
- The menu item "Load Factory Settings (Temporary)" has been removed
since it's always temporary.
This way users can always reset factory settings without
having to consider the combination of options that might cause their
preferences to be overwritten at exit.
If they want to enable auto-save for the current session
this can be done from the preferences.
Now a small threshold is used for mouse input,
avoiding delay when gizmos are activated on drag.
Tablet input threshold remains unchanged since
it's easier to make small movements when using a tablet.
A larger threshold for non-cursor input is now used (typically keyboard)
which improves usability when the "Pie Menu on Drag" key-map preference.
Monochrome colored icons don't work well on a dark background, so now we can
add a border around them. Note that most icons in the interface will remain
without a border, just the outliner and properties editor navigation have
colored icons and those will get a border. Other icons continue to be drawn
in the text colored without a border.

In recent changes the viewport_quality setting was not working what
users expected. This change will separate the anti-aliasing method that
is being used.
We now have three settings:
* scene.display.render_aa: Will be used during `Render Image`.
* scene.display.viewport_aa: Will be used during `Viewport Render Image`.
* userpref.viewport_aa: Will be used in the 3d view.
The viewport_quality setting has been replaced by the viewport_aa
setting as it was the only thing in currently controlled.

Note: Some adjustments were made compared to the diff mainly for code
readability and made the default ball size 150px.

A hard coded threshold was used to ignore cursor motion,
make this a preference since tablet users may want to increase it
since a pen hovering isn't as easy to keep still as a mouse.
Resolves T56278
The option can be changed in the Preferences
in `Interface -> Editors -> Factor Display Type`.

Requested by some users who prefer old wireframe precision.
Smooth wires are still enabled by defaults as they don't have a noticeable
perf impact.
Application restart is needed for changes to take effects.
Currently the preferences have both tweak and drag threshold,
this is confusing because most actions users would consider
dragging use the 'tweak' setting.
Now one drag threshold is used for both, with a maximum limit of half
the button unit-size in case of dragging UI elements.
As far as we know this wasn't widely used, and relied no storing data
in the temp dir which may be cleared on reboot.
More generally, alternative behavior for a core area like file IO
is not something to keep if it has unresolved issues.
See D4310 for details.
This further changes the preferences organization, to avoid grouping unrelated
settings together. With more sections we can also expand more panels by default,
making it possible to quickly go through sections and see the settings of each.
Panels with less used settings are still collapsed by default, to keep all panel
headers visible without scrolling.
