With the new `ed_util_ops.c` introduced in 2250b5cefe, existing code can be
cleaned up to use it.
* Move new ID preview operators to `ed_util_ops.c`
* Move ED operator registration to `ed_util_ops.c`
* Use doxygen sections in `ed_util_ops.c`
* Rename ID related ED operators to use `ED_OT_lib_id_` prefix.
* Remove unused `#include`s
The previous design is rather old and has a couple of problems:
* Scalability: The current solution of adding little icon buttons next to the
data-block name field doesn't scale well. It only works if there's a small
number of operations. We need to be able to place more items there for better
data-block management. Especially with the introduction of library overrides.
* Discoverability: It's not obvious what some of the icons do. They appear and
disappear, but it's not obvious why some are available at times and others
not.
* Unclear Status: Currently their library status (linked, indirectly linked,
broken link, library override) isn't really clear.
* Unusual behavior: Some of the icon buttons allow Shift or Ctrl clicking to
invoke alternative behaviors. This is not a usual pattern in Blender.
This patch does the following changes:
* Adds a menu to the right of the name button to access all kinds of operations
(create, delete, unlink, user management, library overrides, etc).
* Make good use of the "disabled hint" for tooltips, to explain why buttons are
disabled. The UI team wants to establish this as a good practise.
* Use superimposed icons for duplicate and unlink, rather than extra buttons
(uses less space, looks less distracting and is a nice + consistent design
language).
* Remove fake user and user count button, they are available from the menu now.
* Support tooltips for superimposed icons (committed mouse hover feedback to
master already).
* Slightly increase size of the name button - it was already a bit small
before, and the move from real buttons to superimposed icons reduces usable
space for the name itself.
* More clearly differentiate between duplicate and creating a new data-block.
The latter is only available in the menu.
* Display library status icon on the left (linked, missing library, overridden,
asset)
* Disables "Make Single User" button - in review we weren't sure if there are
good use-cases for it, so better to see if we can remove it.
Note that I do expect some aspects of this design to change still. I think some
changes are problematic, but others disagreed. I will open a feedback thread on
devtalk to see what others think.

Design discussed and agreed on with the UI team, also see T79959.
This makes it possible to trigger a refresh of the data-block preview,
available next to the preview in the Asset Browser sidebar. The previews get
easily outdated and automatically refreshing it all the time is not an option
because it would be a consistently running, quite expensive process. So a
button to cause a refresh should be reasonable.
This button can also be used to switch back from a custom preview to a
generated one. Although that may not be clear, and we should probably think of
a way to explain that better.
Addresses T82719.
No automatic preview generation will ever be good enough to cover all cases
well. So custom preview images are a must for a preview driven data-block
selection - like for asset browsing.
The operator simply allows selecting an image file, which will then be read and
copied into the data-blocks preview (resized if necessary).
There's no UI for this currently and the operator won't be available in the
search menu yet. It will later once the Asset Browser UI is merged.

Follow up of b2ee1770d4 and 10c2254d41, part of T74432.
Now the area and region naming conventions should be less confusing.
Mostly a careful batch rename but had to do few smaller fixes.
Also ran clang-format on affected files.
- Remove the only_render arg from ED_editors_flush_edits
was only used in one place, the '_ex' version can be used instead.
- Split out the single object version of this function as currently
flushing is being done in-line, often only accounting for edit-mode,
ignoring sculpt mode for e.g.
This introduces object mode tagging for data which hasn't yet been
written back to the ID data.
Now when selecting other sculpt objects, the original objects data is
flushed back to the ID before writing a memfile undo step.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.

== Main Features/Changes for Users
* Add horizontal bar at top of all non-temp windows, consisting out of two horizontal sub-bars.
* Upper sub-bar contains global menus (File, Render, etc.), tabs for workspaces and scene selector.
* Lower sub-bar contains object mode selector, screen-layout and render-layer selector. Later operator and/or tool settings will be placed here.
* Individual sections of the topbar are individually scrollable.
* Workspace tabs can be double- or ctrl-clicked for renaming and contain 'x' icon for deleting.
* Top-bar should scale nicely with DPI.
* The lower half of the top-bar can be hided by dragging the lower top-bar edge up. Better hiding options are planned (e.g. hide in fullscreen modes).
* Info editors at the top of the window and using the full window width with be replaced by the top-bar.
* In fullscreen modes, no more info editor is added on top, the top-bar replaces it.
== Technical Features/Changes
* Adds initial support for global areas
A global area is part of the window, not part of the regular screen-layout.
I've added a macro iterator to iterate over both, global and screen-layout level areas. When iterating over areas, from now on developers should always consider if they have to include global areas.
* Adds a TOPBAR editor type
The editor type is hidden in the UI editor type menu.
* Adds a variation of the ID template to display IDs as tab buttons (template_ID_tabs in BPY)
* Does various changes to RNA button creation code to improve their appearance in the horizontal top-bar.
* Adds support for dynamically sized regions. That is, regions that scale automatically to the layout bounds.
The code for this is currently a big hack (it's based on drawing the UI multiple times). This should definitely be improved.
* Adds a template for displaying operator properties optimized for the top-bar. This will probably change a lot still and is in fact disabled in code.
Since the final top-bar design depends a lot on other 2.8 designs (mainly tool-system and workspaces), we decided to not show the operator or tool settings in the top-bar for now. That means most of the lower sub-bar is empty for the time being.
NOTE: Top-bar or global area data is not written to files or SDNA. They are simply added to the window when opening Blender or reading a file. This allows us doing changes to the top-bar without having to care for compatibility.
== ToDo's
It's a bit hard to predict all the ToDo's here are the known main ones:
* Add options for the new active-tool system and for operator redo to the topbar.
* Automatically hide the top-bar in fullscreen modes.
* General visual polish.
* Top-bar drag & drop support (WIP in temp-tab_drag_drop).
* Improve dynamic regions (should also fix some layout glitches).
* Make internal terminology consistent.
* Enable topbar file writing once design is more advanced.
* Address TODO's and XXX's in code :)
Thanks @brecht for the review! And @sergey for the complaining ;)

- Use a single undo history for all operations.
- UndoType's are registered and poll the context to check if they
should be used when performing an undo push.
- Mode switching is used to ensure the state is correct before
undo data is restored.
- Some undo types accumulate changes (image & text editing)
others store the state multiple times (with de-duplication).
This is supported by checking UndoStack.mode `ACCUMULATE` / `STORE`.
- Each undo step stores ID datablocks they use with utilities to help
manage restoring correct ID's.
Needed since global undo is now mixed with other modes undo.
- Currently performs each undo step when going up/down history
Previously this wasn't done, making history fail in some cases.
This can be optimized to skip some combinations of undo steps.
grease-pencil is an exception which has not been updated
since it integrates undo into the draw-session.
See D3113
This option makes an operator to not push a task to the undo stack if the previous stored elemen is the same operator or part of the same undo group.
The main usage is for animation, so you can change frames to inspect the
poses, and revert the previous pose without having to roll back tons of
"change frame" operator, or even see the undo stack full.

Uses similar way of storing temp data as object copy paste, just
uses different read entrypoint which does not modify current bmain.
This gives ability to easily copy-paste poses from one blender to
another one.
Hopefully doesn't introduce user-measurable differences.

This commit changes a lot of how IDs are handled internally, especially the unlinking/freeing
processes. So far, this was very fuzy, to summarize cleanly deleting or replacing a datablock
was pretty much impossible, except for a few special cases.
Also, unlinking was handled by each datatype, in a rather messy and prone-to-errors way (quite
a few ID usages were missed or wrongly handled that way).
One of the main goal of id-remap branch was to cleanup this, and fatorize ID links handling
by using library_query utils to allow generic handling of those, which is now the case
(now, generic ID links handling is only "knwon" from readfile.c and library_query.c).
This commit also adds backends to allow live replacement and deletion of datablocks in Blender
(so-called 'remapping' process, where we replace all usages of a given ID pointer by a new one,
or NULL one in case of unlinking).
This will allow nice new features, like ability to easily reload or relocate libraries, real immediate
deletion of datablocks in blender, replacement of one datablock by another, etc.
Some of those are for next commits.
A word of warning: this commit is highly risky, because it affects potentially a lot in Blender core.
Though it was tested rather deeply, being totally impossible to check all possible ID usage cases,
it's likely there are some remaining issues and bugs in new code... Please report them! ;)

Basically, blender adds a few metadata fields to images when
we render an image. Those metadata can now be viewed in the
image editor.
Also, made sure metadata are available when we write imbufs
to disc with "Save As". There may be more cases here that need
fixing, but this means that loading an image with metadata
will now properly preserve them in blender.
quit.blend.
This will use a slower file write if an object is in edit or sculpt
mode.
Autosaving will explicitly not be supported to keep it fast.
Added a tooltip warning.
Sculpt mode drawing fails after deleting a subsurf modifier
in sculpt mode and undoing.
This was quite difficult to spot. Main cause was that mesh data was not
synchronized properly between undo and sculpt code because we generated
a pbvh on derivedmesh invalidation without really refreshing the rest of
the data. This could result in undo and drawing operating on different
data.
To solve this and avoid bad level calls I had to move quite some code
around. Crazyspace is now moved to blenkernel, as did some sculpt calls
that make sure sculpt data are properly refreshed.
- array of quats is now aligned with the vertices (over alloc, it simplifies things and removes need to set invalid index values).
- remove visit-bitmap from crazyspace_get_mapped_editverts(). setting coords multiple times isnt bad.
