This is a place where the API function and operator should differ, for the API
manually setting the filepath and then saving should work. For the UI there is
no filepath visible, so it should open Save As even if there was a filepath set
for example from before changing an image type to Generated.
Previously these only supported a subset of what the save operator could do,
for example no multilayer or stereo saving, no proper color management. Now
share code with the image save operator so it's more consistent.
* Respect the image file color space setitng for saving in various cases where
it was previously ignored. Previously it would often use the sRGB or Linear
color space even when not selected.
* For the Save As operator, add a Color Space option in the file browser to
choose the color space of the file. Previously this was chosen automatically,
now it's possible to e.g. resave a Linear image as Linear ACES.
* When changing the file format, the colorspace is automatically changed to an
appropriate color space for the file format. This already happened before, but
there was no visibility or control in the operator settings for this.
* Don't change color space when using the Save operator to save over the same
file.
* Fix missing color space conversion for 16 bit PNGs, where it assumed wrongly
assumed ibuf->rect would be used for saving. Add BKE_image_format_is_byte to
more accurately test this.

The Output Properties > Output panel now has a Color Management subpanel to
override scene settings. When set to Override instead of Follow Scene, there
are settings to:
* For OpenEXR, choose a (linear) colorspace for RGBA passes
* For other file formats, use different display/view/look/exposure/gamma
These settings affect animation render output, image save of renders and the
compositor file output node. Additionally, the image save operator and
compositor file output nodes also support overriding color management.
Includes some layout changes to the relevant panels to accomdate the new
settings and to improve consistency. Ideally subpanels would be used to better
organize these settings, however nodes and operators don't currently support
creating subpanels.

Make a copy of ImageFormatData that contains the effective color management
settings, and pass that along to the various functions. This will make it
possible to add more complex logic later.
For compositing nodes, passing along view and display settings through
many functions made it harder to add additional settings, so just get those
from the scene now.
