Each space had separate operators, duplicating logic.
Use RNA properties instead so adding the ability to toggle other
region types (floating redo region for eg) doesn't need to have an
extra operator per space type.
It's also nicer to show a check-box for something which can be toggled.
staticmethod shouldn't be used unless it's necessary,
in that case a comment should be included especially when
subclassing non-staticmethods from RNA.
In keeping with convention to match code & UI naming.
- No user visible changes.
- Include 'menu' in the name since context is an overloaded term.
- While a few of these are panels, from a user perspective they are
still context menus.
This also includes fixed/slighly refactored drawing code for marker lines.
The old code used the wrong height.

This commit adds a datablock filtering option for cache files channels,
so that a shot with lots of these in addition to standard animation
(e.g. the Spring production files) don't become bogged down by these.
Furthermore, these channels also respect the "Only Selected" toggle too now.
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.
* Move all copy & paste operators into the menus. There was no real reason
why these particular operators should be in the header and not in the menus,
like all other operators
* Move ‘Update Automatically’ toggle from UV/Image Editor header into menu.
* Move the pin toggle next to the ID blocks, because it is related.
* Move OpenGL render from sequence header into View menu.
* Sequence editor display mode and channels are now not expanded.
* Proportional pie menu at shift+O.
* Snap pie menu at shift+S.
* Pivot pie menu at comma. Previous comma, ctrl+comma, period
and ctrl+period shortcuts for specific pivot types were removed.
Ref T56881.
Now the name/collection filters run when there's some text,
and don't run when the box is empty, thus reducing an extra
step that was needed before these options could be used.
This commit is an experiment in using popovers as a place to house some
of the filtering options for animation editors, in line with what's taking
place in the Outliner with the filtering popover there too.
Right now, the most frequently used/changed options are still available
on the headers (i.e. the "Only Selected"/"Hidden"/search fields), while
everything else (i.e. the per-datablock filters, which were already hidden
behind a collapsed-toggle button before) now live in the popover.
- Added flexible separators to
Clip, Graph, Dopesheet, Image, Node, Timeline, 3D View.
- Added graying out for Proportional Editing
menus to avoid popping when right-aligned.
- Slightly re-arranged some controls,
so they can be on correct side of the separators.
Patch by @billreynish
D3458 by @billreynish w/ edits.
- Context menu for dope-sheet, graph, image & node editors.
- Add type to contenxt menu header.
- Access with W-Key.
- Change UV-editor weld key binding to Shift-W.
OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.
