The goal is to make it possible to access evaluated datablocks at a
corresponding context. For example, be able to check evaluated state
if an object used for rendering.
Allows to write scripts in a safe manner for T63548 and T60094.

Preparing for the bigger changes which will be related on passing
dependency graph to various callbacks which need it.

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.

We can now generate a proper path here, make use of it.
Note: not sure how property pyrna path is supposed to be accessed? code is
similar to the struct pyrna path anyway...
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.

At least one script writer was upset that this was not specified,
as it is different from "floating point" in Python.
Also, docstring for hard and soft min and max for FloatProperty
was wrong, using sys.float_info.min and sys.float_info.max.
Use explicit boolean flag to indicate whether flush to original data
is needed or not. Makes it possible to avoid confusion on whether an
evaluated or any depsgraph can be passed to the API.
Allows to remove depsgraph from bAnimContext as well.

It was used to access evaluated object and pose and was done prior
to implementation of flushing values back to original data for an
active dependency graph.
Removing the argument allows to simplify API and solve issues with
accessing missing dependency graph on redo.
The environment variable to locate system data-files was
ignored by toolbar icons.
Add bpy.utils.system_resource
to match Blender's internal data-file access.
Better to make internal code naming match official/UI naming to some
extent, this will reduce confusion in the future.
This is 'breaking' scripts and files that would use that feature, but
since it is not yet officially supported nor exposed in 2.80, as far
as that release is concerned, it is effectively
a 'no functional changes' commit.
The behavior for loading factory settings wasn't clear for users.
This commit changes the behavior:
- Loading factory settings always disables auto-save
for the current session.
- The internal setting to skip saving on exit is now exposed
in the preferences (when enabled).
- The menu item "Load Factory Settings (Temporary)" has been removed
since it's always temporary.
This way users can always reset factory settings without
having to consider the combination of options that might cause their
preferences to be overwritten at exit.
If they want to enable auto-save for the current session
this can be done from the preferences.
The goal is to prevent assignment of temporary or evaluated meshes
to objects from the main database.
Majority of the change is actually related on passing reports around.
On a positive side there are more error prints which can become more
visible to scripters.
There are still possible further improvements in the related areas.
For example, disable user counting for evaluated ID datablocks when
assignment happens. But can also happen later on as a separate
improvement.

This also makes `IDP_CopyProperty` the "opposite"
of `IDP_FreeProperty`, which is what I'd expect.
Two refactoring steps:
* rename IDP_FreeProperty to IDP_FreePropertyContent
* new IDP_FreeProperty function that actually frees the property

These flags are generic and safe to use, and necessary to match

Allowing direct import of text blocks isn't especially useful,
instead add `text.as_module()` script authors can do this
explicitly if it's needed.
Now the text "Register" option executes
instead of loading as a module.
This removes the need to keep track of the current Main,
and C code to override Python's import & reload.
Having this in blenkernel caused bad level calls to bf_editors_anim,
causing tests that use 'blenkernel' to require almost all libraries.
(complicating gtest linking & causing large binaries).
No functional change, this adds LIB definition and args to cmake files.
Without this it's difficult to migrate away from 'BLENDER_SORTED_LIBS'
since there are many platforms/configurations that could break when
changing linking order.
Manually add and enable WITHOUT_SORTED_LIBS to try building
without sorted libs (currently fails since all variables are empty).
This check will eventually be removed.
