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.
We had those for ID templates, but it's also tremendously useful for
regular ID pointers UI, since often you can get local and linked
data-block with same exact name...
Fetaure request from Spring team (and long due TODO...).
Moves the Properties editor context switching to a vertical tabs region.
Design Task: T54951
Differential Revison: D3840
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.
That feature will not be ready (or at least, not tested enough) to be
officially part of 2.80 beta. So we disable it by default, hidding it
behind a startup option (`--enable-static-override`), and a python
app var (`bpy.app.use_static_override`).
That way, people who really want to play with it can do it easily, while
not exposing/enabling non-production-ready feature by default.
Note that underlying override code remains active, i.e. files we do have
overridden data-blocks will be loaded correctly according to static override.
Add the necessary colors and/or alpha components to the theme instead.
Also switch the background for ordinary channels to use the likely
intended theme option, instead of the window background color.
The general rule is that the channel color is drawn full strength in the
channel list on the left, and with alpha in the actual key frame area on
the right. This alpha is also reused with bone group colors.

Before, the list kept the reverse order enabled in the filter. Now the filter is reset when the option is disabled and don't need any user change or restart.
Now, it was possible to invert the order of the UIlist using the filter, but it was impossible to know if the list was inverted or not.
The problem with this is that any other element depending of this value could not be adjusted.
See https://devtalk.blender.org/t/how-to-access-uilist-properties/2268
The new parameter allows to set the reverse order by default. When the list is set as reverse, it cannot be inverted again, so the invert button is removed of the filter.
This change is needed to fix a requested feature for Grease Pencil (T56985) and because a lot of 2D softwares use the drawing layers in the inverse order used in Blender.
This option defines whether or not menu items drawing code must
separate drawstring in two, keeping right part at all cost.
This is used to show shortcuts of operators' enum entries usually.
Previous way to decide that was based on button having an RNA prop
pointer, assuming those without it were not 'data buttons' and hence
needed the shortcut special handling thingy.
That's wrong is many, many cases (especially since search templates
often generate more than one buttons, not all linked to actual RNA
data). So instead now checking whether a button has an optype set or
not, hopefully this will be much more accurate...
Other solution if thsi also fails, is to add new flag to buttons, and
explicitely set it when needed, instead of trying to guesstimate...
For now we have categories collection, object, object data, modifiers &
constraints, and shading. The icons can be categorized by adding e.g.
DEF_ICON_OBJECT() in UI_icons.h.
Light themes will need to be updated to use darker colors to keep icons
visible in the outliner.
The problem is that string width computing is performed in integers
(pixels), which can generate a rather annoying error (a few pixels)...
Simply work around that for now, by trimming an extra middle char when
needed.
