`WM_modalkeymap_items_to_string` is expected to always return a string.
But in the special case of zero length, the returned string was not
terminated with `'\0'`.
This can cause problems with the header of the knife tool for example.
It always uses the returned string.
(This issue was observed when investigating T103804).
Also minor changes in comments:
- Reference BLENDER_HISTORY_FILE instead of the literal file-name
(simplifies looking up usage).
- Use usernames in tags, as noted in code-style.
Regression in [0] which cleared the redo-panel if an operator added
its own undo step. This worked for sculpt to fix T101743, but caused
the redo-panel to be cleared for actions who's undo steps where created
by nested operators (which is the case for the spin operator).
Fix by checking an undo-step is added without registering an operator.

Currently only affects 'UI' IDs (WindowManager, Screen, etc.), but in
the future other types may be affected as well.
NOTE: this is only used in readfile code itself, not in the
post-processing performed by `setup_app_data`, as this code is too
specific for such generic handling.
Regression in [0] caused mouse wheel events over windows without focus
to use the modifier state at the point the window was de-activated.
Now un-focused windows have all events release, when focused again
modifier press events are set again.

Swap-buffers was being deferred (to prevent it being called
from the event handling thread) however when it was called the
OpenGL context might not be active (especially with multiple windows).
Moving the cursor between windows made eglSwapBuffers report:
EGL Error (0x300D): EGL_BAD_SURFACE.
Resolve this by removing swapBuffer calls and instead add a
GHOST_kEventWindowUpdateDecor event intended for redrawing
client-side-decoration.
Besides the warning, this results an error with LIBDECOR window frames
not redrawing when a window became inactive.
Goal of this patch is to stop the invocation of OpenGL calls via the bgl module
on a none OpenGL GPU backend, report this as a python deprecation warning
and report this to the user.
## Deprecation warning to developers
```
>>> import bgl
>>> bgl.glUseProgram(0)
<blender_console>:1: DeprecationWarning: 'bgl.glUseProgram' is deprecated and will be removed in Blender 3.7. Report or update your script to use 'gpu' module.
```
## Deprecation message to users
The message to the user is shown as part of the Info Space and as a message box.
{F14159203 width=100%}
{F14158674 width=100%}
During implementation we tried several ideas:
# Use python warning as errors: This isn't fine grained enough and can show incorrect information to the user.
# Throw deprecation as error and use sys.excepthook to report the user message.
This required a custom exception class to identify the bgl deprecation and a CPython handler function to
be set during python initialization. Although this is the most flexible there was a disconnect between the
exception class, exception function and the excepthook registration.
# A variant how we handle autoexec failures. A flag is stored in Global and when set the user message is reported.
Not that flexible, but code is more connected to the boolean stored in the Global struct.
Although using Global struct isn't nice I chose this solution due to its traceability. It is clear to developers
reading the code how the mechanism works by using search all functionality of your IDE.

These warnings can reveal errors in logic, so quiet them by checking
if the features are enabled before using variables or by assigning
empty strings in some cases.
- Check CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT is set before use as CMake docs
note that this may be left unset if it's not needed.
- Remove BOOST/OPENVDB/VULKAN references when disable.
- Define INC_SYS even when empty.
- Remove PNG_INC from freetype (not defined anywhere).

Due an internal scale of the brush size done by grease pencil
draw tool (this scale factor cannot be removed), the size of the
radial control is not equal to the actual stroke thickness and
this makes the radial size displayed useless.
This patch adds a new property that allows to pass the
path of the tool path and this value is used to apply
the correct scale to the radial size.

(MacOS) only: In the System tab of the user preferences the user has the
ability to select a GPU backend that Blender will use. After changing
the GPU backend setting, the user has to restart Blender before the
setting is used.
It was added to start collecting feedback on the Metal backend without
using the command lines.
By default Blender will select OpenGL as backend. When Metal is selected
(via `--gpu-backend metal` or via user preferences) OpenGL will be used as
fallback when the platform isn't capable of running Metal.
Propagate `eRNAOverrideMatchResult` 'return' flags at higher level into

Restrict the condition under which paint cursors read use the cursor
location from the the operating-system.
This caused a glitch when dragging UI elements in painting context
popup. Since the paint cursor would display using mouse motion
which was clamped to the window center - an internal detail of hidden
cursor grabbing.
Now only read the cursor coordinates when clamped to a region which
is used for the transform cursor to stay visible even when the cursor
wraps around.
- Use typed enum for the wrap axis.
- Rename `bounds` to `wrap_region`.
- Take a `rcti` argument instead of an `int[4]`.
- Pair wrap & wrap_region arguments together.
Historically checks for windowing capabilities used platform
pre-processor checks however that doesn't work when Blender is built
with both X11 & Wayland.
Add a capabilities flag which can be used to check which functionality
is supported. This has the advantage of being more descriptive/readable.
Improve a few messages, but mostly fix typos in many areas of the UI.

behind the various changes.

Texture usage flags can now be provided during texture creation specifying
the ways in which a texture can be used. This allows the GPU backends to
perform contextual optimizations which were not previously possible. This
includes enablement of hardware lossless compression which can result in
a 15%+ performance uplift for bandwidth-limited scenes on hardware such
as Apple-Silicon using Metal.
GPU_TEXTURE_USAGE_GENERAL can be used by default if usage is not known
ahead of time. Patch will also be relevant for the Vulkan backend.

With the asset identifier introduced in the previous commit, we can now
locate an asset just from its `AssetRepresentation`, without requiring
information from the asset library and the file browser storage. With
this we can remove some hacks and function parameters. A RNA/BPY
function is also affected, but I didn't remove the paramter to keep
compatibility. It's simply ignored and not required anymore, noted this
in the parameter description (noted for T102877).

Swapping some ID lists between Mains must invalidate the name_map cache.
Note that in theory, at least WM type could be ignored by name_map
cache, since it is a singleton. However, don't think it's worth adding
extra complication here, for really marginal benefits. The overhead of
rebuilding the name cache here is extremly small.
For some reason, this issue did not show so far in master, only appeared
in some branch work on improving (in)direct status of linked IDs... Go
figure.
