Support for showing images in background/foreground and only in perspective/orthographic view.
Internally the depth of the image is modified in the fragment shader by setting `gl_FragDepth` explicitly.
The UI still needs some work to improve usability, see D3863 for details.
Currently there is one duplicated function, not sure how to best deduplicate it yet. (`is_image_empty_visible`)

That way scripts can have a consitent way to get unique ID key/string,
and can use it for access in bpy.data collections as well.
Note that this kind of douples the old py API way of doning this
(passing tuple of (ID-name, lib-path) instead of just ID-name).
Also reshuffle a bit that whole code, did some renaming,
`BKE_id_to_unique_string_key()` is now using same base code (instead of
using whole library filepath...), etc.
When enabled, inserting keyframes into F-Curves with simple cyclic
extrapolation (the same conditions as required for cycle-aware auto
handle smoothing to activate) will take the cycle into account:
- Keyframes that are being inserted outside of the cycle bounds
are remapped to be inside the cycle. Thus it is not necessary
to be within the main iteration of the cycle when tweaking.
This becomes especially useful in the final animation tweaking
phase when the channel keys may be staggered for overlap, so
the actual master period is different for different channels.
- Modifying one of the end points of a cycle also changes the
other end point when appropriate, to preserve smooth transition.
This feature applies to both manual keyframe insertion using
'I', and auto-keyframing.

This option allows to fade all layers except active one. This can help in very crowded scenes with a lot of layers, to verify you are working in the right one.
This is needed because some RNA functions differentiate a NULL 'char *'
argument from an empty string.
Previously a NULL argument could be passed when the C definition
defined the default as NULL and the argument wasn't passed
which is a fairly hidden way of handling things.
Now strings use `PROP_NEVER_NULL` by default
which can be cleared for function arguments that allow None -> NULL.
Moves the Properties editor context switching to a vertical tabs region.
Design Task: T54951

The tabs are regular widgets, unlike the 'old' toolshelf tabs. This means they
give mouse hover feedback, have tooltips, support the right-click menu, etc.
Also, when vertical screen space gets tight, the tabs can be scrolled, they
don't shrink like the toolshelf ones.
The tab region is slightly larger than the header. The tabs are scaled up
accordingly. This makes them nicely readable.
The header is quite empty now. As shown in T54951, we wanted to have a search
button there. This should be added next.
Implementation Notes:
* Added a new region type, RGN_TYPE_NAVIGATION.
* Having the tabs in a separate region allows scrolling of the tab-bar, unlike
the toolshelf tabs. We might want to remove the scrollbars though.
* Added a new region flag RGN_FLAG_PREFSIZE_OR_HIDDEN, to ensure the tab region
is either hidden or has a fixed size.
* Added some additional flags to support fine-tuning the layout in panel and
layout code.
* Bumps subversion.
With the new automatic handle algorithm, it is possible to do a lot
of the animation via keyframes without touching the curves. It is
however necessary to change the keyframe interpolation and handle
types in certain cases. Currently the dopesheet/action editor
allows changing the types, but does not show them in any way.
To fix, add a new menu option to display this information. For handle
type, it is represented using the shape of the key icons: diamond for
Free, clipped diamond for Aligned, square for Vector, circle for Auto
Clamp, and cirle with dot for Automatic.
Non-bezier interpolation is a property of intervals between keys,
so it is marked by drawing lines, similar to holds. In this initial
version, only the fact of non-bezier interpolation is displayed,
without distinguishing types. For summaries, the line is drawn at
half alpha if not all curves in the group are non-bezier.
In addition, it is sometimes helpful to know the general direction
of change of the curve, and which keys are extremes. This commit
also adds an option to highlight extremes, based on comparing the
keyed values with adjacent keys. Half-intensity display is used
for overshot bezier extremes, or non-uniform summaries.

* Text editor word wrap, line numbers & syntax toggles now use consistent icons
that don’t change when you enable or disable them.
* Replaced icon toggle buttons in the snapping popover with normal checkboxes
and descriptive text labels. This makes it clearer which item is the main
radio button, is more consistent with other popovers, and allows us to use
more descriptive text.
* Added correct icons for grease pencil add menu.
* Added bespoke icons for grease pencil modifiers.
* Added icon for particle instance modifier.
* Added icon for fake user on & off states.
* Added correct icons for enabling/disabling modifiers in the dopesheet &
f-curve editor.
* Made it so the restrict viewport & restrict render toggles for modifier
update correctly when enabled or disabled, by flipping the order in the
icon sheet. This also required changing the outliner to match.
* Removed the few old remaining icons in the old style and made sure to replace
the last places where they were used.
* Updated many icons to be clearer & more consistent.
This new option is located in the shadows options in the render settings.
This approach is simple and just randomize the shadow map position (not
the lamp itself) and just let the temporal supersampling do the average of
all the shadowing. The downside is that is needs quite a large number of
samples to give smooth results and individual sample position can remain
visible.
Enabling this option will make the viewport refresh all shadow maps every
redraw so it has a serious performance impact.
This approach is not physicaly based at all and will not match cycles.

The old name Instance was logic when the modifier created new object instances, but now works equal to mesh Array modifier, so the old name was not logic and must be Array.
Also added a Object to use as offset similar to mesh Array modifier.
Compositor has own node in the dependency graph, so need to make
sure relations are up to date.
This fixes wrong user counter when creating compositor nodes for
a new scene.
This should be fixed differently in the future. Read D3821 for more details.

* Used correct icons for Tracking.
* Flip Copy/Paste icons so they are correct.
* Add correct icon for softbody modifier.
* Replace speaker icons for enabling F-Curves with checkboxes.
Only tag relations update when new f-curve was allocated. This solves
possible too slow keyframe insertion when doing character animation,
but still does proper relation update when new ID component became
animated.
No need to tag object for time update, with new dependency graph
this forces animation to be re-evaluated, which is not something
we want in this instance.
Same patch/solution Philipp Oeser came to as well.
