While the screenshot operator showed an "Area" option,
it wasn't usable from the main menu (unless accessed via menu search).
Split screenshot area into an operator that depends on cursor.
Support waiting for input so operators that depend on the
cursor location are usable from menus / buttons.
Use an operator type flag which the user interface code checks for,
waiting for input when run from a menu item.
This patch only supports this feature, there are no functional changes.
The motivation for this change is discoverability since some actions
were either hidden or broken when accessed from menus
(where the behavior of the operator depended on the menu location).
In general, waiting for input is *not* an efficient way to access tools,
however there are over 50 operators with a "wait_for_input" property
so this isn't introducing a new kind of interaction,
rather exposing this in a way that does not need to be hard-coded into
each operator, or having modal callbacks added for the sole purpose
of waiting for input.
Besides requiring boiler plate code using a "wait_for_input" property
has the added down-side of preventing key shortcuts from showing.
Only the menu items will enable the property,
causing them not to match key-map items.

An issue with the previous commit-- the default value of the type was
used instead of the property value when the "use_attribute" property
was missing.
This adds a toggle to node group inputs exposed in the modifier to use
an attribute instead of a single value. When the toggle is pressed, the
button switches to a text button to choose an attribute name. Attribute
search isn't implemented here yet.
One confusing thing is that some values can't be driven by attributes
at all, like the size of a primitive node. In that case, we should have
a node warning, but that will be separate since it's more general.
We can also have an option to turn off this toggle in node group
input settings.
The two new properties for each input are stored with the same name
as the value, but with `"_use_attribute"` and `"_attribute_name"``
suffixes. The properties are not added for socket types that don't
support attribute input, like object sockets.

This patch allows point and spline attributes to be transferred to the
mesh generated by the curve to mesh node. All dynamic named and
anonymous attributes are transferred. So a user-created attribute will
be transferred, but "radius", "tilt" or the handle position attributes
won't be transferred by default and will need to be copied first.
This trade-off is made for performance, since most of the time, users
won't need these attributes copied.
Generally, attributes are transferred to the point/vertex domain.
However, if they have the same name as a built-in mesh attribute that
only exists on a different domain, like "shade_smooth", then they can
be transferred directly to that domain as well. Conversion directly to
the face corner domain is not necessary because there are no builtin
face corner attributes. I see this conversion directly to other domains
as an optimization we could use behind the scenes in the future as well,
when named attributes are less common.
For performance, I haven't tested which of the following is better:
```
for each spline combination:
for each attribute:
for each attribute:
for each spline combination:
```
For now I used the existing loop to avoid more threading overhead.

Store the optional temporary span storage as a unique_ptr and move
it in the move constructor, to avoid the need to add a special move
constructor that clears the "show_warning" fields from it. Maybe this
is very slightly slower, but we'll need this class less often in the future
anyway.
With this, asset libraries can be directory structures and all assets in
sub-directories will show up in an Asset Browser.
With complex directory structures and many .blend files inside, asset
library reading will be quite slow for now. There's initial work being
done to introduce indexing for this (T82979), other optimizations are
being discussed as well.

The toggle that allow users to "show" the region (header, toolbar, ...)
when it is collapsed can now be configured for the apps.
Note: This option is not visibile in the UI.
Differential Revision: D12516
This breaks API compatibility. However we are now grouping this setting
in the proper section (preferences.apps), so scripts had to update anyways.
So they may as well do it for the final name.
The reason to remove from the UI is that this is intended for app setup,
and as such it should not be exposed to final users until we have apps
better presented (for 3.1 hopefully).

Add needed extra flag and utils to IDType to mark and check an ID type
as only appendable.
Note that this is only a loose user-level enforcement currently, in any
case you need to be able to link an ID to append it currently, so for
low-level code this does not really matter.
Currently only WorkSpace and Screen ID types are marked with the new
`IDTYPE_FLAGS_ONLY_APPEND` flag.
While likely harmless, this code was doing extremely bad thing,
by-passing the whole lower-level `BKE_lib_id_make_local` call in case it
would fail and deciding by itself to forcefully make the given ID local.
Bad. Very, very, very bad.
Callbacks in IDTypeInfo should never affect other IDs if they are not
embedded.
We break this rule in some cases, at least each of those should be
clearly commented about and get some security checks to try to avoid
unexpected issues as much as possible.
Mixing testing and actual action in a single function is just not a good
way to do things, and the 'testing' feature is not used anywhere
anymore, time to get rid of it.
This flag became a full duplicate of `IDTYPE_FLAGS_NO_LIBLINKING`, which
is a good thing (don't think we ever want to be able to link some data,
without being able to make it local...).
So we can now remove it and use `IDTYPE_FLAGS_NO_LIBLINKING` instead.
Toggling the selection off in the node is the same as muting it,
so exposing it there doesn't help, and makes it less clear that it's
meant to be used as a field.
This moved the spline reversing logic out of the Curve Reverse geometry
node and into the spline class. This allows a spline to reverse itself
with a call to `my_spline.reverse()`
The base class will reverse position, radii & tilt, while specialized
versions are created for Bezier and Nurbs splines to reverse the
additional data that these classes encapsulate.

Essentially, Workspace (and Screen) types were defined as not
localizable.
In previous code it happended to work by mere chance (code path taken in
`BKE_library_make_local` was conviniently skipping the call to
`BKE_lib_id_make_local` in that case, hence not checking for
`IDTYPE_FLAGS_NO_MAKELOCAL` flag of the localized ID type).
This is a total abuse of this IDType flag, for now removing it.
That specific case (IDtype appendable but nor linkable) requires its own
proper flag, this will be tackled in a later commit.

This commit moves the old material nodes to a "legacy" folder and adds
versions of the nodes that work with fields.
The "Select by Material" node is a field node now, so it doesn't have
a geometry output. This is an improvement because there are fewer links
to connect, and it's more easily usable in different situations.
It's also called "Material Selection", since it's more of an input
than an action now.
It's sometimes necessary to use the attribute capture node to get a
more predictable interpolation to mesh faces. This is because the
selection field input is always evaluated on the face domain, so
attribute inputs are interpolated before they are booleans, so they
cannot use the new interpolations from rB5841f8656d9580d7b9.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D12456
The generic domain interpolation algorithms didn't quite work for
selections. The interpolation would do unexpected things that
were different than the results in edit mode. The new behavior
is supposed to be the same as edit mode, although we also have
to handle face corner selections here.
Currently the code assumes that all boolean attributes should be
handled that way. I'm not sure of why that wouldn't be the case,
but if we ever need non-selection boolean attributes, that could
be supported too.

This commits adds a few common flags to `SocketDeclaration`
so that they are available for all socket types (hide label, hide
value, is multi input). This allows porting over the remaining
geometry nodes to the new declaration system.
Furthermore, this commit separates the concepts of the socket
declaration and corresponding builders. The builders are used
by nodes to declare which sockets they have (e.g. `FloatBuilder`).
The ready build socket declarations can then be consumed by
other systems such as the versioning code. Both use cases
need different APIs and those will change for independent reasons,
so it makes sense to separate the classes.
This allows a hack to be removed that temporarily overwrote
the 3D views gizmo display flag.
Also reverse change from fb27a9bb98
that runs poll on modal gizmo groups as there is some risk
that the poll function unlinks the gizmo.
