When the GHOST back-end Blender was built with isn't supported,
Blender would crash on startup without any useful information.
This could happen when building X11 only, then running on Wayland.
Now show a list of the GHOST back-ends that were attempted and exit
with an error code instead of crashing.
Available on Windows and macOS, where such gestures are supported.
For Windows, disabling this option restores touchpad behavior to

This is required by the Metal backend to perform flushing of temporary objective-C resources. This is implemented as a global autoreleasepool, and is to ensure consistency such that all rendering operations, whether called via events, or via main loop will be within an autoreleasepool.

MTLContext provides functionality for command encoding, binding management and graphics device management. MTLImmediate provides simple draw enablement with dynamically encoded data. These draws utilise temporary scratch buffer memory to provide minimal bandwidth overhead during workload submission.
This patch also contains empty placeholders for MTLBatch and MTLDrawList to enable testing of first pixels on-screen without failure.
The Metal API also requires access to the GHOST_Context to ensure the same pre-initialized Metal GPU device is used by the viewport. Given the explicit nature of Metal, explicit control is also needed over presentation, to ensure correct work scheduling and rendering pipeline state.

This functionality was present until Blender 2.80. Basically it adds back the
"+" and "-" buttons in the file browser when it stores an output filepath.
This is useful for someone rendering multiple versions of an animation (or a
composition) to compare.
At the moment this is used for the render output, and the File Output node in
the compositor.

Handling the OS key now match other modifiers in GHOST which detect
each key separately, making the behavior simpler to reason about since
mapping a single key to a modifier state is simpler, avoiding handling
that only applied to the OS-Key.
This means simulating key up/down events can use the correct modifier.
In the window-manager this is still only accessed accessed via KM_OSKEY.
Previously the a simulated event was sent for releasing modifiers
on activation but pressing only set the eventstate flag.
Prefer the simulated events since press/release events are used in some
modal key-maps.
When a change happens which invalidates view layers the syncing will be postponed until the first usage.
This will improve importing or adding many objects in a single operation/script.
`BKE_view_layer_need_resync_tag` is used to tag the view layer to be out of sync. Before accessing
`BKE_view_layer_active_base_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_object_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_collection`
or `BKE_view_layer_object_bases` the caller should call `BKE_view_layer_synced_ensure`.
Having two functions ensures that partial syncing could be added as smaller patches in the future. Tagging a
view layer out of sync could be replaced with a partial sync. Eventually the number of full resyncs could be
reduced. After all tagging has been replaced with partial syncs the ensure_sync could be phased out.
This patch has been added to discuss the details and consequences of the current approach. For clarity
the call to BKE_view_layer_ensure_sync is placed close to the getters.
In the future this could be placed in more strategical places to reduce the number of calls or improve
performance. Finding those strategical places isn't that clear. When multiple operations are grouped
in a single script you might want to always check for resync.
Some areas found that can be improved. This list isn't complete.
These areas aren't addressed by this patch as these changes would be hard to detect to the reviewer.
The idea is to add changes to these areas as a separate patch. It might be that the initial commit would reduce
performance compared to master, but will be fixed by the additional patches.
**Object duplication**
During object duplication the syncing is temporarily disabled. With this patch this isn't useful as when disabled
the view_layer is accessed to locate bases. This can be improved by first locating the source bases, then duplicate
and sync and locate the new bases. Will be solved in a separate patch for clarity reasons ({D15886}).
**Object add**
`BKE_object_add` not only adds a new object, but also selects and activates the new base. This requires the
view_layer to be resynced. Some callers reverse the selection and activation (See `get_new_constraint_target`).
We should make the selection and activation optional. This would make it possible to add multiple objects
without having to resync per object.
**Postpone Activate Base**
Setting the basact is done in many locations. They follow a rule as after an action find the base and set
the basact. Finding the base could require a resync. The idea is to store in the view_layer the object which
base will be set in the basact during the next sync, reducing the times resyncing needs to happen.

This function did multiple things making it difficult to know
what was intended by the caller:
- Directory & file join.
- Expand relative '//' prefix to an optional directory.
- Expand drive letters on windows (guessing with fall-backs).
- Switch slashes to native direction.
This functionality wasn't needed as the full directory was always passed
in, so guessing the drive letter wasn't needed.
If functionality to add drive letters onto paths is needed in the future
a function that only does this can be added.
The logging API was freed before calling wm_autosave_delete that called
BKE_appdir_folder_id_create to get the auto-save location (when the
temporary directory wasn't found). Detecting BLENDER_USER_AUTOSAVE would
log details about the path, which would read data freed by CLG_exit.
Resolve by calling CLG_exit last.
- ACTIVE flag is no longer in use.
- DESELECT was used in some places as an alias for false,
even though this could arguably help readability, in practice this
was often passed with a selection flag leading to confusing calls
such as `select_beztriple(bezt, DESELECT, SELECT, HIDDEN)`.
Replace SELECT/DESELECT with true/false in these cases.
- Remove ED_types.h. Add a 'SELECT' definition to DNA_anim_types.h,
for fcurve_test, we could use a shared DNA header, or remove use of
the define entirely in favor of typed enums.
Note that lib_override functions have kept the unused argument,
but this may be removed too. It impacts many lib_override functions
so this can be handled separately.
The only difference between `GPU_SHADER_2D_LINE_DASHED_UNIFORM_COLOR`
and `GPU_SHADER_3D_LINE_DASHED_UNIFORM_COLOR` is that in the vertex
shader the 2D version uses `vec4(pos, 0.0, 1.0)` and the 3D version
uses `vec4(pos, 1.0)`.
But VBOs with 2D attributes work perfectly in shaders that use 3D
attributes. Components not specified are filled with components from
`vec4(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0)`.
So there is no real benefit to having two different shader versions.

While missing the break before a default that only breaks isn't
an error, it means adding new cases needs to remember to add the
break for an existing case, changing the default case will also
result in an unintended fall-through.
Also avoid `default:;` and add an explicit break.
