This introduces the User Interface part of the Asset Browser, based on the
design in T54642.
Additions:
* New Asset Browser (internally a sub-editor of the File Browser).
* Navigation region showing asset categories.
* Main region showing the assets of the selected asset library with previews.
The assets may be stored over multiple .blends in the directory that's
"mounted" as asset library in the Preferences. They will all be shown in this
list.
* Header with an asset library dropdown, allowing to choose the active asset
library to show. Options are the "Current File" as asset library and all
custom libraries.
* Display popover, filter popover and search box (partially dummies, see
T82680).
* Sidebar showing the metadata of the currently active file (name, preview,
description and tags), which can be edited for assets in the "Current File"
asset library. (For others it will reset on reload.)
* The sidebar includes a button to load a custom preview image from a file.
* Make asset files draggable (with preview image).
* If a library with invalid path is selected, a message is drawn in the main
region to help the user understand what's wrong.
* Operators to add and remove asset tags. Exposed in the sidebar.
* "Only Assets" option for Link/Append.
* Internal utilities for asset UI scripts.
For screenshots or demo videos, please see D9725. Or the 2.92 release notes.
Note that there are many things to be tweaked and polished in the Asset Browser
UI still. For example, the filter and display popovers are mostly dummies. See
T82680.

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.

One of the core design aspects of the Asset Browser is that users can "mount"
custom asset libraries via the Preferences. Currently an asset library is just
a directory with one or more .blend files in it. We could easily support a
single .blend file as asset library as well (rather than a directory). It's
just disabled currently.
Note that in earlier designs, asset libraries were called repositories.
Idea is simple: In Preferences > File Paths, you can create custom libraries,
by setting a name and selecting a path. The name is ensured to be unique. If
the name or path are empty, the Asset Browser will not show it in the list of
available asset libraries.
The library path is not checked for validity, the Asset Browser will allow
selecting invalid libraries, but show a message instead of the file list, to
help the user understand what's going on.
Of course the actual Asset Browser UI is not part of this commit, it's in one
of the following ones.

This makes it possible to turn data-blocks into assets and back into normal
data-blocks. A core design decision made for the asset system is that not every
data-block should be an asset, because not every data-block is made for reuse.
Users have to explicitly mark data-blocks as assets.
Exposes "Mark Asset" and "Clear Asset" in Outliner context menus (currently ID
Data submenu) and button context menus. We are still not too happy with the
names, they may change.
This uses the new context members to pass data-blocks to operators, added in
af008f553293 and 0c1d4769235c.

Asset metadata is what turns a regular data-block into an asset. It is a small
data-structure, but a key part of the technical design of the asset system.
The design foresees that asset data-blocks store an `ID.asset_data` pointer of
type `AssetMetaData`. This data **must not** have dependencies on other
data-blocks or data-block data, it must be an independent unit. That way we can
read asset-metadata from .blends without reading anything else from the file.
The Asset Browser will use this metadata (together with the data-block name,
preview and file path) to represent assets in the file list.
Includes:
* New `ID.asset_data` for asset metadata.
* Asset tags, description and custom properties.
* BKE code to manage asset meta-data and asset tags.
* Code to read asset data from files, without reading IDs.
* RNA for asset metadata (including tags)

This changes the way how the mattes are stored in the compositor node. This used to
be a single string what was decoded/encoded when needed. The new data structure
stores all entries in `CryptomatteEntry` and is converted to the old `matte_id`
property on the fly.
This is done for some future changes in the workflow where a more structured
approach leads to less confusing and easier to read code.

In Cycles the volume transmittance is already composited into the color
passes. In Eevee the volume transmittance pass was separate and needed
to be composited in the compositor. This patch adds the volume
transmittance pass direct in the next render passes:
* Diffuse Color
* Specular Color
* Emission
* Environment
This patch includes the removal of the volume transmittance render pass.
It also renames the volume render passes to match Cycles. The setting
themselves aren't unified.

This commit adds a node that fills every element of an attribute
with the same value. Currently it supports float, vector, and color

Currently people are using the same input to a Random Attribute node's

This adds deformation types to snake hook and the elastic deformation
type. This mode deforms the mesh using a kelvinlet instead of applying
the displacement directly inside the brush radius, which is great for
stylized shapes sketching.
Changes in rake rotation when using elastic are too strong when set
to 1, so I'll add a nicer way to support rake rotations with smoother

Implement improvement from T73139 for merging along edges.
It is now called "Connected" mode, while the default is called "All".
With the recent performance improvement, the Connected Mode is in some
cases only double the speed than the usual merge all strategy but in
other cases it may be even faster. The bottleneck is somewhere further
down the line of merging geometry.
The motivation for this patch came from T80897, because the merging in
complex solidify is making it very slow.
Now merging can be removed from solidify without greater consequences,
as this is just a quicker and more advanced algorithm to do the same
thing that solidify currently does slowly.

* Avoid direct access to `SpaceFile.params`, use a getter instead. This matters
because once the asset-browser changes are in, there will be an alternative
selection parameter object. The getter can return the correct one.
* Rename the function to ensure the parameters. The old name
`ED_fileselect_get_params()` wasn't a mere getter, it would create the
parameters if necessary. Now we have an actual getter, so better be clear.
* In some instances, I replaced the old "get" function with the new mere
getter. So the ensure logic is called less often. However, in these cases we
should be able to assume the selection parameters were created already as
part of the editor creation routine.
The term "active" in the new function names may seem a bit odd in the current
context, but that is a preparation for the Asset Browser merge as well. Like
said, there will be two file selection parameter objects in the space.

Also makes NLA tracks and strips overridable.
User can either edit existing strips in existing NLA tracks (but not add or remove them), and/or add new NLA tracks after those comming from the linked data.
Most of the work was as usual checking operators and adding protections against illegal operations in override context.
Note that since we can only rely on indices to deal with local added tracks, we forbid any local track being before any linked/original track.

Cryptomatte is a standard to efficiently create mattes for compositing. The
renderer outputs the required render passes, which can then be used in the
compositor to create masks for specified objects. Unlike the Material and Object
Index passes, the objects to isolate are selected in compositing, and mattes
will be anti-aliased.
Cryptomatte was already available in Cycles this patch adds it to the EEVEE
render engine. Original specification can be found at
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Psyop/Cryptomatte/master/specification/IDmattes_poster.pdf
**Accurate mode**
Following Cycles, there are two accuracy modes. The difference between the two
modes is the number of render samples they take into account to create the
render passes. When accurate mode is off the number of levels is used. When
accuracy mode is active, the number of render samples is used.
**Deviation from standard**
Cryptomatte specification is based on a path trace approach where samples and
coverage are calculated at the same time. In EEVEE a sample is an exact match on
top of a prepared depth buffer. Coverage is at that moment always 1. By sampling
multiple times the number of surface hits decides the actual surface coverage
for a matte per pixel.
**Implementation Overview**
When drawing to the cryptomatte GPU buffer the depth of the fragment is matched
to the active depth buffer. The hashes of each cryptomatte layer is written in
the GPU buffer. The exact layout depends on the active cryptomatte layers. The
GPU buffer is downloaded and integrated into an accumulation buffer (stored in
CPU RAM).
The accumulation buffer stores the hashes + weights for a number of levels,
layers per pixel. When a hash already exists the weight will be increased. When
the hash doesn't exists it will be added to the buffer.
After all the samples have been calculated the accumulation buffer is processed.
During this phase the total pixel weights of each layer is mapped to be in a
range between 0 and 1. The hashes are also sorted (highest weight first).
Blender Kernel now has a `BKE_cryptomatte` header that access to common
functions for cryptomatte. This will in the future be used by the API.
* Alpha blended materials aren't supported. Alpha blended materials support in
render passes needs research how to implement it in a maintainable way for any
render pass.
This is a list of tasks that needs to be done for the same release that this
patch lands on (Blender 2.92)
* T82571 Add render tests.
* T82572 Documentation.
* T82573 Store hashes + Object names in the render result header.
* T82574 Use threading to increase performance in accumulation and post
processing.
* T82575 Merge the cycles and EEVEE settings as they are identical.
* T82576 Add RNA to extract the cryptomatte hashes to use in python scripts.

This patch adds support for AOVs in EEVEE. AOV Outputs can be defined in the
render pass tab and used in shader materials. Both Object and World based
shaders are supported. The AOV can be previewed in the viewport using the
renderpass selector in the shading popover.
AOV names that conflict with other AOVs are automatically corrected. AOV
conflicts with render passes get a warning icon. The reason behind this is that
changing render engines/passes can change the conflict, but you might not notice
it. Changing this automatically would also make the materials incorrect, so best
to leave this to the user.
**Implementation**
The patch adds a copies the AOV structures of Cycles into Blender. The goal is
that the Cycles will use Blenders AOV defintions. In the Blender kernel
(`layer.c`) the logic of these structures are implemented.
The GLSL shader of any GPUMaterial can hold multiple outputs (the main output
and the AOV outputs) based on the renderPassUBO the right output is selected.
This selection uses an hash that encodes the AOV structure. The full AOV needed
to be encoded when actually drawing the material pass as the AOV type changes
the behavior of the AOV. This isn't known yet when the GLSL is compiled.
**Future Developments**
* The AOV definitions in the render layer panel isn't shared with Cycles.
Cycles should be migrated to use the same viewlayer aovs. During a previous
attempt this failed as the AOV validation in cycles and in Blender have
implementation differences what made it crash when an aov name was invalid.
This could be fixed by extending the external render engine API.
* Add support to Cycles to render AOVs in the 3d viewport.
* Use a drop down list for selecting AOVs in the AOV Output node.
* Give user feedback when multiple AOV output nodes with the same AOV name
exists in the same shader.
* Fix viewing single channel images in the image editor [T83314]
* Reduce viewport render time by only render needed draw passes. [T83316]

This adds a new property to the sculpt vertex color paint brush to limit
the area of the brush that is going to be used to sample the wet paint
color. This is exactly the same concept as normal radius and area radius
that exist for sculpting brushes for sampling the surface depth and
orientation.
When working near color hard edges, this allows to prevent the color
from the other side of the edge to blend into the wet paint.
With 1.0 (the previous default) wet paint radius, as soon as the brush touches
one vertex of the other color, the wet paint mix color changes, making it
impossible to maintain the border between the two colors.
