Asset Browser Space API: add `activate_asset_by_id()` function

Add an RNA function `activate_asset_by_id(asset_id: ID, deferred: bool)`
to the File Browser space type, which intended to be used to activate an
asset's entry as identified by its `ID *`. Calling it changes the active
asset, but only if the given ID can actually be found.

The activation can be deferred (by passing `deferred=True`) until the
next refresh operation has finished. This is necessary when an asset has
just been added, as it will be loaded by the filebrowser in a background
job.
