Steps to reproduce were:
* Ensure //Render//->//Display Mode// is //New Window//
* F12
* In the opened Image Editor, Alt+S to save the image
* Save the image
The saving would fail silently.
Issue was that wm_handler_op_context() would fail to find the correct
area to activate, as the wrong window was active in context. So allow
overriding this window and do so when creating the file-select handler.
Blender UI Layout API allows supplying parameters to operators via
button definitions. If an operator behavior strongly depends on its
parameters, it may be difficult to write a tooltip that covers all
of its operation modes. Thus it is useful to provide a way for the
operator to produce different descriptions based on the input info.

Popup would be closed immediately after creating, because of incorrect
mouse coordinates stored in window (popup is set to close if mouse is
some distance away from it).
Completes fix for T69581.
This is a partial fix, in that it only brings back the banner reports in
the status bar. The popups still don't show up but I need to investigate
more.
It's really ugly that reports rely on wmWindowManager.winactive, but
that's how it is...
Partialy fixes T69581.
We need to ensure the file browser window doesn't manage the handlers
for itself.
The special file browser closing code that we used previously isn't
needed anymore, wm_window_open_temp() and the handling of
EVT_FILESELECT_FULL_OPEN already manage it fine.
This change implements the basics as described in {T68312} for the
shading modes.
* LookDev shading mode is renamed to Material Preview. It always uses Eevee as renderer, and is intended to provide a fast material preview suitable for texture painting, and texture and material setup.
* Rendered shading gains "Use Scene Lights" and "Use Scene World" options similar to current Material Preview. These will be enabled by default. When Use Scene World is turned off, HDRIs will be used for lighting instead. These options are available for EEVEE and Cycles.
* Renderers will be able to customize the shading settings panel and add additional settings.

This is a general redesign of the File Browser GUI and interaction
methods. For screenshots, check patch D5601.
Main changes in short:
* File Browser as floating window
* New layout of regions
* Popovers for view and filter options
* Vertical list view with interactive column header
* New and updated icons
* Keymap consistency fixes
* Many tweaks and fixes to the drawing of views
----
General:
* The file browser now opens as temporary floating window. It closes on
Esc. The header is hidden then.
* When the file browser is opened as regular editor, the header remains
visible.
* All file browser regions are now defined in Python (the button
layout).
* Adjusted related operator UI names.
Keymap:
Keymap is now consistent with other list-based views in Blender, such as
the Outliner.
* Left click to select, double-click to open
* Right-click context menus
* Shift-click to fill selection
* Ctrl-click to extend selection
Operator options:
These previously overlapped with the source list, which caused numerous
issues with resizing and presenting many settings in a small panel area.
It was also generally inconsistent with Blender.
* Moved to new sidebar, which can easily be shown or hidden using a
prominent Options toggle.
* IO operators have new layouts to match this new sidebar, using
sub-panels. This will have to be committed separately (Add-on
repository).
* If operators want to show the options by default, they have the option
to do so (see `WM_FILESEL_SHOW_PROPS`, `hide_props_region`), otherwise
they are hidden by default.
General Layout:
The layout has been changed to be simpler, more standard, and fits
better in with Blender 2.8.
* More conventional layout (file path at top, file name at the bottom,
execute/cancel buttons in bottom right).
* Use of popovers to group controls, and allow for more descriptive
naming.
* Search box is always live now, just like Outliner.
Views:
* Date Modified column combines both date and time, also uses user
friendly strings for recent dates (i.e. "Yesterday", "Today").
* Details columns (file size, modification date/time) are now toggleable
for all display types, they are not hardcoded per display type.
* File sizes now show as B, KB, MB, ... rather than B, KiB, MiB, … They
are now also calculated using base 10 of course.
* Option to sort in inverse order.
Vertical List View:
* This view now used a much simpler single vertical list with columns
for information.
* Users can click on the headers of these columns to order by that
category, and click again to reverse the ordering.
Icons:
* Updated icons by Jendrzych, with better centering.
* Files and folders have new icons in Icon view.
* Both files and folders have reworked superimposed icons that show
users the file/folder type.
* 3D file documents correctly use the 3d file icon, which was unused
previously.
* Workspaces now show their icon on Link/Append - also when listed in
the Outliner.
Minor Python-API breakage:
* `bpy.types.FileSelectParams.display_type`: `LIST_SHORT` and
`LIST_LONG` are replaced by `LIST_VERTICAL` and `LIST_HORIZONTAL`.
Removes the feature where directories would automatically be created if
they are entered into the file path text button, but don't exist. We
were not sure if users use it enough to keep it. We can definitely bring
it back.

* Auto detect rc and release version cycle in BKE_blender_version.h.
* On Windows, generate zip and installer if a release is detected.
* On macOS, always generate a dmg instead of zip.
* Use standard package names without hash if a release is detected.
* Buildbot package names now match platform names in releases.

When a material slot is empty, the default material is used.
The default color used is Gray to get a good contrast in dense scenes with dark and white background.

NodeTree structures of materials and some other data blocks are
effectively node group datablock objects that are contained inside
the parent block. Thus, direct references to them are only valid
while blender is running, and are lost on save.
Fix Copy As New Driver to create a reference that goes through
the owner datablock, by adding a new ID flag to mark private
pseudo-datablocks.
Also fix functions that return full paths to structures and
properties, e.g. used in python tooltips. Functions for paths
from ID to struct or property can't be changed because of
Animation Data related code.

Before there were two options: Paste to original layer called "Paste" and Paste to active layer called "Paste & Merge"
Now, by default the paste is in active layer and the "Paste & Merge" has been renamed "Paste".
For old "Paste", now is called "Paste by Layer" and it's not the default value anymore.
Note: Minor edits to add icons not present in Differential revision.

The old layout of `PointerRNA` was confusing for historic reasons:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct {
void *data;
} id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
This patch updates it to:
```
typedef struct PointerRNA {
struct ID *owner_id;
struct StructRNA *type;
void *data;
} PointerRNA;
```
Throughout the code base `id.data` was replaced with `owner_id`.
Furthermore, many explicit pointer type casts were added which
were implicit before. Some type casts to `ID *` were removed.

We try to avoid diffing too much things during edition, but when saving
a file we need to check all possible overridable IDs to ensure we have
all needed override operations...
Was pretty sure that was already in code, but apparently not (or it got
lost at some point...).
