Shortcut lookups for property buttons were only supported for a subset
of RNA types.
Replace inline data-path calculation with
WM_context_path_resolve_property_full.
Now the shortcut for the 3D View's overlay toggle (for e.g.) is shown.
In editors with vertical scale indicators, such as Graph Editor,
Drivers, or VSE, display the values aligned to the view.
Also add a shadow (similar to the 3D View info) to improve readability when the text is on top of curves, strips, or other content.

Tree-view items can now easily define their own context menu. This works
by overriding the `ui::AbstractTreeViewItem::build_context_menu()`
function. See the documentation:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Interface/Views#Context_Menus
Consistently with the Outliner and File Browser, the right-clicked item
also gets activated. This makes sure the correct context is set for the
operators and makes it clear to the user which item is operated on.
An operator to rename the active item is also added, which is something
you'd typically want to put in the context menu as well.
If the operator poll of a superimposed icon returned `false`, the
superimposed icon would just draw normally and fail silently. Instead it
will now be drawn grayed out, plus the tooltip of the icon can show the
usual "disabled hint" (a hint explaining why the button is disabled).
In a couple of places in the UI, we show superimposed icons on buttons
to execute an operation (called "Extra Icons" internally). Hovering them
would show the tooltip of the underlying button, which is misleading and
confusing.
There are cases where it's not obvious what an icon does, so a tooltip
would be quite useful here. It's likely we are going to use superimposed
icons in more places in the future, e.g. see D11890.
The extra icon basically acts as an override for the button in the
tooltip code.

Disables undo for:
* The tree row collapsing - which doesn't make sense to undo, isn't
supported by the undo system, and just triggers the confirmation
prompt when closing the file.
* Renaming items - While this may make sense in some cases, users of the
tree-view API can explicitly do an undo push. For asset catalogs it's
not supported.
This reworks how tree rows are constructed in the layout and how they
behave in return.
* To open or collapse a row, the triangle/chevron icon has to be clicked
now. The previous behavior of allowing to do it on the entire row, but
only if the item was active already, was just too unusual and felt
weird.
* Reduce margin between chevron icon and the row label.
* Indent child items without chevron some more, otherwise they feel like
a row on the same level as their parent, just without chevron.
* Fix renaming button taking entire row width. Respect indentation now.
* Fix double-clicking to rename toggling collapsed state on each click.
Some hacks/special-handling was needed so tree-rows always highlight
while the mouse is hovering them, even if the mouse is actually hovering
another button inside the row.
Was just comparing this item's and the parent item's names. But if an item has
no parents, only its own name has to match for the check to return true. Make
sure that the number of parents also matches.
Now the icons to add or delete catalogs are only shown when mouse hovering a
catalog item in the tree. This is convenient for quick creation of catalogs,
and doesn't require activating a catalog to edit it first.
Determining if a tree item is hovered isn't trivial actually. The UI tree-view
code has to find the matching tree-row button in the previous layout to do so,
since the new layout isn't calculated yet.
The UI code to ensure consistent button state over redraws was just comparing
the name of the item, ignoring the parent names. So with multiple items of the
same name, there might have been glitches (didn't see any myself though).
There's a leftover to-do though, we don't check yet if the matched buttons are
actually from the same tree. Added TODO comment.
Catalogs can now be renamed by double clicking them in the Asset
Browser. This is mostly done through the tree-view API, the asset
specific code is very little.
There is some polish left to be done here, e.g. the double click
currently also collapses/uncollapses and activates the clicked item. And
the rename button takes the full width of the row. But addressing these
is better done as part of some other behavioral changes that are planned
anyway.
Makes things look more appealing visually. Plus it's a way to visually
group the tree rows together, which can be important if there are more
widgets surrounding the tree.
If a renaming button was removed via `UI_but_active_only_ex()` and that
button was placed using the layout system, the button was still in the
layout.
So far this didn't cause issues, because all cases where the button may
be removed were not using the layout system.
Issue was that the `on_activate()` callback of tree-items were
continuously called, because the active-state was queried before we
fully reconstructed the tree and its state from the previous redraw.
Such issues could happen in more places, so I've refactored the API a
bit to reflect the requirements for state queries, and include some
sanity checks.
The actual fix for the issue is to delay the state change until the tree
is fully reconstructed, by letting the tree-items pass a callback to
check if they should be active.
The `ui::BasicTreeViewItem` took a function-like object to execute on
item activation via the constructor. This was mainly intended to be used
with lambdas. However, it's confusing to just have this lambda there,
with no indication of what it's for (activation).
Instead, assign the function-like object via an explicit `on_activate()`
function.
Makes sure that the active item of a tree never has collapsed parent
items, which can be confusing if it happens. E.g. for the asset catalogs
UI, the active catalog decides which assets are visible. Having it
hidden while being the main factor deciding which assets are visible is
quite confusing.
I think it makes sense to have this at the UI Tree-View level, rather
than doing it manually in the asset catalog code for example. Seems like
something you'd commonly want. We can make it optional in the API if
needed.
Renamed the `set_active()` function to make clear that it is more than a
mere setter.
Somehow, the file from T71329 has an empty curve profile. While that may
be a problem in itself, it's reasonable to avoid asserts or crashes when
loading or drawing such a CurveProfile. This commit just makes sure the
table always has a single vertex, and adds some checks in drawing code.
With this it is possible to select any number of assets in the Asset
Browser and drag them into catalogs. The assets will be moved to that
catalog then. However, this will only work in the "Current File" asset
library, since that is the only library that allows changing assets,
which is what's done here.
While dragging assets over the tree row, a tooltip is shown explaining
what's going to happen.
In preparation to this, the new UI tree-view API was already extended
with custom drop support, see 4ee2d9df42.
----
Changes here to the `wmDrag` code were needed to support dragging multiple
assets. Some of it is considered temporary because a) a proper #AssetHandle
design should replace some ugly parts of this patch and b) the multi-item
support in `wmDrag` isn't that great yet. The entire API will have to be
written anyway (see D4071).

Adds an easy way to add drop support for tree-view rows.
Most of the work is handled by the tree-view UI code. The tree items can
simply override a few functions (`can_drop()`, `on_drop()`,
`drop_tooltip()`) to implement their custom drop behavior.
While dragging over a tree-view item that can be dropped into/onto, the
item can show a custom and dynamic tooltip explaining what's gonna
happen on drop.
This isn't used yet, but will soon be for asset catalogs.
See documentation here:

The Asset Browser now displays a tree with asset catalogs in the left
sidebar.
This replaces the asset categories. It uses the new UI tree-view API
(https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Interface/Views#Tree-View).
Buttons are displayed for adding and removing of catalogs. Parent items
can be collapsed, but the collapsed/uncollapsed state is not stored in
files yet.
Note that edits to catalogs (e.g. new or removed catalogs) are only
written to the asset library's catalog definition files when saving a
.blend.
In the "Current File" asset library, we try to show asset catalogs from
a parent asset library, or if that fails, from the directory the file is
stored in. See adaf4f56e1.
There are plenty of TODOs and smaller glitches to be fixed still. Plus a
UI polishing pass should be done.
Important missing UI features:
* Dragging assets into catalogs (WIP, close to being ready).
* Renaming catalogs
* Proper handling of catalogs in the "Current File" asset library
(currently not working well).
The "Current File" asset library is especially limited still. Since this
is the only place where you can assign assets to a catalog, this makes
the catalogs very cumbersome in general. To assign an asset to a
catalog, one has to manually copy the Catalog ID (a random hash like
number) to the asset metadata through a temporary UI in the Asset
Browser Sidebar. These limitations should be addressed over the next few
days, they are high priority.

Labels in headers reserved space for an icon even when no icon was used.
This is caused by the shared function ui_text_icon_width adding 1.5x
a buttons X-units width the the width of the string.
Menu buttons detected this and subtracted the extra padding.
Instead of adding the same workaround for labels,
add ui_text_icon_width_ex that takes a padding argument.
Add presets for 'default', 'compact' and 'none' to avoid duplicating
padding values.
This allows removal of hard-coded label scaling for the add-object tool.
This follows three main targets:
* Make creation of new tree UIs easy.
* Groundwork to generalize tree UIs (so e.g. Outliner, animation
channels, asset catalogs and spreadsheet data-sets don't have to
re-implement basic tree UI code) or even other data-view UIs.
* Better separate data and UI state. E.g. with this, tree-item selection
or the open/collapsed state can be stored on the UI level, rather than
in data. (Asset Catalogs need this, storing UI state info in them is
not an option.)
In addition, the design should be well testable and could even be
exposed to Python.
Note that things will likely change in master still. E.g. the actually
resulting UI isn't very nice visually yet.

Draw thumbnails as strip overlay. This works for movie and image strips.
To draw thumbnails, this overlay has to be enabled and strips must be

Drawing code uses only images stored in cache, and if any is missing,
background rendering job is started. If job can not render thumbnail,
to prevent endless loop of creating job for missing image it sets
`SEQ_FLAG_SKIP_THUMBNAILS` bit of `Sequence` flag.
To prevent visual glitches during timeline panning and zooming, `View2D`
flag `V2D_IS_NAVIGATING` is implemented. If bit is set, drawing code
will look for set of evenly distributed thumbnails that should be
guaranteed to exist and also set of previously displayed thumbnails.
Due to volatile nature of cache these thumbnails can be missing anyway,
in which case no new thumbnails will be drawn for particular strip.
Cache capacity is limited to 5000 thumbnails and performs cleanup of

Expose a key-map preference "Fallback Tool (RMB)",

The right mouse button uses the fallback tool
(currently visible selection tool in the toolbar),
instead of always tweaking.
When any selection tool is active, right mouse always tweaks.
To enable fallback selection on RMB, set the "Right Mouse Select Action"
to "Selection Tool".
Internal changes:
- Add fall-back key-maps, separate key-maps needed for when the tool is
run as a fall-back. This is needed so RMB-select can support fall-back
tools, so left-mouse can be used when it's the active tool and RMB
can be used as a fall-back action when another tool is active.
- Add options field to tools so tools without gizmos can enable the
full-back tool keymap.
- Support multiple key-maps for keymap handlers.
- Fall-back keymaps now co-exist with the tool-keymaps.
So both keymaps may be active at once - using different mouse buttons.
When gizmos are in use, a highlighted gizmo prioritizes the
tool-keymap over the fall-back keymap.

Adding a name_property also wont work since `AssetHandle` inherits

Support waiting for input so operators that depend on the
cursor location are usable from menus / buttons.
Use an operator type flag which the user interface code checks for,
waiting for input when run from a menu item.
This patch only supports this feature, there are no functional changes.
The motivation for this change is discoverability since some actions
were either hidden or broken when accessed from menus
(where the behavior of the operator depended on the menu location).
In general, waiting for input is *not* an efficient way to access tools,
however there are over 50 operators with a "wait_for_input" property
so this isn't introducing a new kind of interaction,
rather exposing this in a way that does not need to be hard-coded into
each operator, or having modal callbacks added for the sole purpose
of waiting for input.
Besides requiring boiler plate code using a "wait_for_input" property
has the added down-side of preventing key shortcuts from showing.
Only the menu items will enable the property,
causing them not to match key-map items.
