We now use a for_each function with callback to iterate through all sequences in the scene.
This has the benefit that we now only loop over the sequences in the scene once.
Before we would loop over them twice and allocate memory to store temporary data.
The allocation of temporary data lead to unintentional memory leaks if the code used returns to exit out of the iteration loop.
The new for_each callback method doesn't allocate any temporary data and only iterates though all sequences once.

GOP size and quality are adjusted for h264 codec.
These new values are based on result of benchmark on 9 random files:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nOyUGjoVWUyhQ2y2lAd8VtFfyaY1wQNGj1krCCNbk7Y/edit?usp=sharing
Reducing quality to 50 reduces proxy filesize by about 2x on average
and has no significant impact on decoding performance.
Increasing GOP size from 2 to 10 also reduces proxy filesize 2x-3x
while scrubbing is only about 8% slower. It is still around 100FPS
with 1920x1080 media.
This is unfortunately about 50% slower than MJPEG, but this can be
improved with `fastdecode` tune applied to libx264 encoder
Quite surprisingly h264 codec presets had little influence on proxy
building performance as well as proxy filesize. So far it looks that
FFmpeg does initialize encoder in different way then Blender.
This applies mot only for presets but for tune and profile libx264
setting.
Once this issue is resolved, performance of proxies may be optimized
further.

Broken by 04e1feb830
Caused by accidentaly moving `SEQ_proxy_rebuild_finish` outside of
`if (nseq->type == SEQ_TYPE_MOVIE)` condition in function
`SEQ_proxy_rebuild_context()`.
Build proxies automatically when added to sequencer timeline and when
switching preview size.
This behavior can be disabled in user preferences.

- Remove Full Render size from VSE preview size. Use just 100% instead.
- Add Use Proxies checkbox to control whether proxies are used globally
- Move preview size to top so it is most prominent
- Set default to 100% preview size and use proxies

Move most functions into separate files.
File sequencer.c is reserved for alloc, free and duplicating functions.
There should be no functional changes.
Variables renaned:
- cfra -> timeline_frame
- nr -> frame index
- cfra_over -> overlap_frame
Function seq_give_stripelem_index was renamed to seq_give_frame_index.
Replace BKE_sequencer wirh SEQ_render or SEQ_proxy prefixes.
In cases where function is very generic, only SEQ prefix is used.

Move functions closely related to rendering images and proxies into
render.c and proxy.c files. render.h and proxy.h are created for
functions used internally.
There should be no functional changes.
