This adds support for rendering motion blur for volumes, using their
velocity field. This works for fluid simulations and imported VDB
volumes. For the latter, the name of the velocity field can be set per
volume object, with automatic detection of velocity fields that are
split into 3 scalar grids.
A new parameter is also added to scale velocity for more artistic control.
Like for Alembic and USD caches, a parameter to set the unit of time in
which the velocity vectors are expressed is also added. For Blender gas
simulations, the velocity unit should always be in seconds, so this is
only exposed for volume objects which may come from external OpenVDB
files.
These parameters are available under the `Render` panels for the fluid
domain and the volume object data properties respectively.

**Relevant to Artists:** This patch adds an option to the Parenting
menu, `Object (Keep Transform Without Inverse)`, and Apply menu, `Parent
Inverse`. The operators preserve the child's world transform without
using the parent inverse matrix. Effectively, we set the child's origin
to the parent. When the child has an identity local transform, then the
child is world-space aligned with its parent (scale excluded).
**Technical:** In both cases, the hidden parent inverse matrix is
generally set to identity (cleared or "not used") as long as the parent
has no shear. If the parent has shear, then this matrix will not be
entirely cleared. It will contain shear to counter the parent's shear.
This is required, otherwise the object's local matrix cannot be properly
decomposed into location, rotation and scale, and thus cannot preserve
the world transform.
If the child's world transform has shear, then its world transform is
not preserved. This is currently not supported for consistency in the
handling of shear during the other parenting ops: Parent (Keep
Transform), Clear [Parent] and Keep Transform. If it should work, then
another patch should add the support for all of them.

Add a new operator, "Start Tweaking Strip Actions (Full Stack)", which
allows you to insert keyframes and preserve the pose that you visually
keyed while upper strips are evaluating,
The old operator has been renamed from "Start Tweaking Strip Actions" to
"Start Tweaking Strip Actions (Lower Stack)" and remains the default for
the hotkey {key TAB}.
**Limitations, Keyframe Remapping Failure Cases**:
1. For *transitions* above the tweaked strip, keyframe remapping will
fail for channel values that are affected by the transition. A work
around is to tweak the active strip without evaluating the upper NLA
stack.
It's not supported because it's non-trivial and I couldn't figure it
out for all transition combinations of blend modes. In the future, it
would be nice if transitions (and metas) supported nested tracks
instead of using the left/right strips for the transitions. That
would allow the transitioned strips to overlap in time. It would also
allow N strips to be part of the (previously) left and right strips,
or perhaps even N strips being transitioned in sequence (similar to a
blend tree). Proper keyframe remapping through all that is currently
beyond my mathematical ability. And even if I could figure it out,
would it make sense to keyframe remap through a transition?
//This case is reported to the user for failed keyframe insertions.//
2. Full replace upper strip that contains the keyed channels.
//This case is reported to the user for failed keyframe insertions.//
3. When the same action clip occurs multiple times (colored Red to
denote it's a linked strip) and vertically overlaps the tweaked
strip, then the remapping will generally fail and is expected to
fail.
I don't plan on adding support for this case as it's also non-trivial
and (hopefully) not a common or expected use case so it shouldn't be
much of an issue to lack support here.
For anyone curious on the cases that would work, it works when the
linked strips aren't time-aligned and when we can insert a keyframe
into the tweaked strip without modifying the current frame output of
the other linked strips. Having all frames sampled and the strip
non-time aligned leads to a working case. But if all key handles are
AUTO, then it's likely to fail.
//This case is not reported to the user for failed keyframe
insertions.//
4. When using Quaternions and a small strip influence on the tweaked
Combine strip. This was an existing failure case before this patch
too but worth a mention in case it causes confusion. D10504 has an
example file with instructions.
//This case is not reported to the user for failed keyframe insertions. //
5. When an upper Replace strip with high influence and animator keys to

This behaviour was introduced in a687d98e67 to bring the old obscure
"M" operator to remove objects from the local view. In order to avoid
the keymap clash with the Move to Collection operator, the Move to

In retrospect, the "Remove from Local View" operator is in the menu anyways,
so it didn't even need to have a shortcut (back in 2.79 the operator was
not in a menu).

* No shortcut for "Remove from Local View"
* No more restrictions to "Move/Link to Collection" from local view.

There are two different attachment modes:
* `Nearest`: Move each curve so that the first point is on the closest
point on the surface. This should be used when the topology of the
surface mesh changed, but the shape generally stayed the same.
* `Deform`: Use the existing attachment information that is stored
for curves to move curves to their new location when the surface
mesh was deformed. This generally does not work when the
topology changed.
The purpose of the operator is to help setup the "ground truth"
for how curves are attached to the surface. When the ground
truth surface changed, the original curves have to be updated
as well. Deforming curves based on an animated surface will be
done with geometry nodes independent of the operator.

The lightgroup creation and assignment is not Cycles-specific, so Eevee or external render

Note that Lightgroups are identified by their name - therefore, the name of the Lightgroup

There is a dedicated Library Override display mode now, and showing
these elsewhere just adds noise and makes the code problematic to
maintain (since the same element hierarchy will be used in two entirely
different contexts). The corresponding filter settings are removed too.

Object mode selection does a kind of cycling that excludes the active
selected object. This is separate from regular selection cycling which
is enabled when clicking multiple times without moving the cursor.
This has the down-side that clicking on an object to drag it always
selects the object behind it (in the case of overlapping objects).
Since object mode selection is fundamental functionality, this is
exposed as an experimental preference for user feedback & testing.
See T96752 for details.
In my opinion Scale Thickness feels similar to Only Locations and was missing from the pie menu in grease pencil edit mode, so here I added it.

This was already as a preference for the tweak tool,
this preference enables the option for all selection
in the 3D view & UV editor.
This extends on changes from T96544.
New supported features:
* 3D/spherical brush that samples a good position on the curves.
* Falloff.
The custom falloff curve mapping is not yet available in the ui because that
requires some more ui reorganization. This is better done when we have
a better understanding of what settings we need exactly.
Currently, the depth of the 3d brush is only sampled once per stroke, when
first pressing LMB. Sometimes it is expected that the depth of the brush can
change within a single brush. However, implementing that in a good way
is not straight forward and might need additional options. Therefore that
will be handled separately. Some experimentation results are in D14376.

The Output Properties > Output panel now has a Color Management subpanel to
override scene settings. When set to Override instead of Follow Scene, there
are settings to:
* For OpenEXR, choose a (linear) colorspace for RGBA passes
* For other file formats, use different display/view/look/exposure/gamma
These settings affect animation render output, image save of renders and the
compositor file output node. Additionally, the image save operator and
compositor file output nodes also support overriding color management.
Includes some layout changes to the relevant panels to accomdate the new
settings and to improve consistency. Ideally subpanels would be used to better
organize these settings, however nodes and operators don't currently support
creating subpanels.

- Follow the same conventions as the 3D viewport for UV selection
(using SelectPick_Params internally).
- Use WM_operator_properties_mouse_select for selection properties.
This adds a new Add brush for the new curves object type in sculpt mode.
The brush is used to insert new curves (typically hair) on the surface object.
Supported features:
* Add single curve exactly at the cursor position when `Add Amount` is 1.
* Front faces only.
* Independent interpolate shape and interpolate length settings.
* Smooth and flat shading affects curve shape interpolation.
* Spherical and projection brush.
This also adds the `surface_triangle_index` and `surface_triangle_coordinate`
attributes. Those store information about what position on the surface each
added curve is attached to:
* `surface_triangle_index` (`int`): Index of the internal triangle that a curve
is attached to. `-1` when the curve is not attached to the surface.
* `surface_triangle_coordinate` (`float2`): First two numbers of a barycentric
coordinate that reference a specific position within the triangle.
