There is not enough time before the release to improve Random Walk to handle
all cases this was used for, so restore it for now.
Since there is no more path splitting in cycles-x, this can increase noise in
non-flat areas for the sample number of samples, though fewer rays will be traced
also. This is fundamentally a trade-off we made in the new design and why Random
Walk is a better fit. However the importance resampling we do now does help to
reduce noise.

This update of the Switch node allows for field compatible types
to be switched through the node. This includes the following:
Float, Int, Bool, String, Vector, and Color
The remaining types are processed with the orginal code:
Geometry, Object, Collection, Texture, and Material
Because the old types require a diffent "switch" socket than the
field types, versioning for old files is included to move links
of those types to a new switch socket. Once fields of other types
are supported, this node can be updated to support them as well.

With 794c2828af & f48a4aa0f9 it's possible to reuse possibly
expensive, nested data of a data-block when appending. E.g. the
texture of a material, or the mesh of an object. Without this it's easy
to bloat memory and the file size. Duplicated textures also cause
unnecessary shader recompilations.
The feature was intended to be the new default behavior for the Asset
Browser, but it wasn't actually added to the UI yet. This patch adds a
new import type option to the Asset Browser. So from the menu in the
header, you can now choose between:
* Link
* Append
* Append (Reuse Data)
The latter is the new default.

* Custom grid: Allows the user to create an NxN grid, where the value
of N is specified by the user.
* Subdividing grid: Subdivides the UV editor grid when the user
zooms in the viewport and vice versa when zooming out.
UV snapping improvements :
* Increment snapping: Increment values for snapping are calculated based
on which grid type is being used in the UV editor
(subdividing or custom). In general the increment value is equal to
the distance between 2 visible grid lines.
* Absolute grid snap: New toggle added to increment snapping option in
the UV editor, allows UV grid snapping during translation.

As described in T91672, often it can be much more efficient to run each
node only on the unique geometry of the instances, rather than realizing
all instances and potentially processing redundant data. Sometimes the
performance difference can be completely smooth vs. completely unusable.
Geometry nodes used to hide that choice from users by always realizing
instances, but recently we have decided to expose it. So this commit
makes nodes run once per unique reference in the entire tree of nested
instances in their input geometries, continuing the work started in
rB0559971ab377 and rBf94164d89629f0d2. For the old behavior, a realize
instances node can be added before the nodes, which is done in the
versioning code.

Since we bumped the number of channels to 128, I forgot to doversion the

Fixup to: 8fecc2a852
The original limit dates back from 2002 when Blender went open source.
After that many years some productions (e.g., Sprite Fright) are already
experiencing limitations for complex edits.
The future plans is to support an initial shorter (2?) number of
channels with support to "unlimited" channels.
Finally, I'm bumping the minimum file requirement since files with more
than 32 channels won't work well in old Blender versions.
In a future commit I will implement a sanitization so that we only read (and write)
128 channels. Making sure future changes of this number won't corrupt Blender.

Flags controlling link/append code are split between two enums, one in
`DNA_space_types.h` and one in `BLO_readfile.h`.
This commit:
- Moves flags exclusively used in WM and BLO code to `eBLOLibLinkFlags`
in `BLO_readfile.h`. Flags in `eFileSel_Params_Flag` from
`DNA_space_types.h` are now only the ones effectively used by the
file browser editor code too.
- Fixes some internal utils in `readfile.c` still taking `short` flag
parameter instead of proper `int` one.
NOTE: there are a few other flags that could probably be moved to
`eBLOLibLinkFlags` (at the very least `FILE_LINK`, probably also
`FILE_AUTOSELECT` and `FILE_ACTIVE_COLLECTION`), since those are not
effectively used by the file browser, and control linking/appending
behavior, not filebrowser behavior.
However for now think it's safer to not touch that.

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
tall enough.
The thumbnails are loaded from source file using separate thread and
stored in cache.
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
non visible images when limit is reached.

rBe2f99c338bd57 should have used the subversion currently defined
in Blender, instead it used one lower, so some files didn't have the
versioning applied.
Recently we have decided to avoid fancier versioning for nodes with
string inputs for attribute names when updating the attribute workflow
for 3.0. In that case we would just duplicate any node that will
have an updated version to work with fields.
We want to be able to use the "proper" ID names for the new versions
of the nodes though, so this patch adds "Legacy" to the IDs of all
nodes that will be replaced in 3.0. This commit also removes the nodes
from the add menu when the fields experimental preference is enabled,
in order to make it clear what has been updated and what hasn't.
Nodes in the "Maybe" categories in versioning_300.c can be renamed
later if necessary. For now it's probably better to be conservative,
and to keep the list complete.

This mesh primitive enhances the Cube mesh primitive and allows the
creation of a cuboid with a configurable size and number of vertices
in all 3 directions. The Cube primitive is now similar to the Grid
primitive except that it works in 3 dimensions.
Previously it was possible to create a cube and scale it arbitrarily
along each axis. You could also subdivide the mesh, but the number of
subdivisions was equal along all axes. This meant that making the basic
frame for something like modular buildings wasn't trivial.
Inspired by tutorials and files for modular building creation.
The cuboid is created as a `Mesh` so that large meshes with millions of
faces are created quickly. Though edge calculation could be faster if
implemented here, edges are calculated using `BKE_mesh_calc_edges`
to reduce complexity, and in hopes that they may be calculated lazily
for `Mesh` in the future like vertex normals.

The storage of IDProperty UI data (min, max, default value, etc) is
quite complicated. For every property, retrieving a single one of these
values involves three string lookups. First for the "_RNA_UI" group
property, then another for a group with the property's name, then for
the data value name. Not only is this inefficient, it's hard to reason
about, unintuitive, and not at all self-explanatory.
This commit replaces that system with a UI data struct directly in the
IDProperty. If it's not used, the only cost is of a NULL pointer. Beyond
storing the description, name, and RNA subtype, derived structs are used
to store type specific UI data like min and max.
Note that this means that addons using (abusing) the `_RNA_UI` custom
property will have to be changed. A few places in the addons repository
will be changed after this commit with D9919.
**Before**
Before, first the _RNA_UI subgroup is retrieved the _RNA_UI group,
then the subgroup for the original property, then specific UI data
is accessed like any other IDProperty.
```
prop = rna_idprop_ui_prop_get(idproperties_owner, "prop_name", create=True)
prop["min"] = 1.0
```
**After**
After, the `id_properties_ui` function for RNA structs returns a python
object specifically for managing an IDProperty's UI data.
```
ui_data = idproperties_owner.id_properties_ui("prop_name")
ui_data.update(min=1.0)
```
In addition to `update`, there are now other functions:
- `as_dict`: Returns a dictionary of the property's UI data.
- `clear`: Removes the property's UI data.
- `update_from`: Copy UI data between properties,
even if they have different owners.
