The Asset Browser will be a sub-editor of the File Browser. This prepares the File Browser code for that. **File-Lists** * Support loading assets with metadata read from external files into the file-list. * New main based file-list type, for the "Current File" asset library. * Refresh file-list when switching between browse modes or asset libraries. * Support empty file-lists (asset library with no assets). * Store file previews as icons, so scripts can reference them via icon-id. See previous commit. **Space Data** * Introduce "browse mode" to differeniate between file and asset browsing. * Add `FileAssetSelectParams` to `SpaceFile`, with `FileSelectParams` as base. Makes sure data is separated between asset and file browsing when switching between them. The active params can be obtained through `ED_fileselect_get_active_params()`. * `FileAssetSelectParams` stores the currently visible asset library ID. * Introduce file history abstraction so file and asset browsing can keep a separate history (previous and next directories). **General** * Option to only show asset data-blocks while file browsing (not exposed here). * Add "active_file" context member, so scripts can get and display info about the active file. * Add "active_id" context member, so `ED_OT_lib_id_load_custom_preview` can set a custom ID preview. (Only for "Current File" asset library) * Expose some of `FileDirEntry` in RNA as (non-editable). That way scripts can obtain name, preview icon and asset-data.
