Mouse and NDOF events are defined in enums that are never used
directly by RNA through RNA_def_property_enum_items. As a result, they
don't get automatically extracted to the translation files and need to
be manually, through N_() macros.
The translation context used is the same as in other places related to
KeyMapItem: "UI_Events_KeyMaps".

Calling os.path.samefile on a repository directory that didn't exist
was raising an exception. Resolve by comparing the directories as
strings, see code comments for details.
STL/PLY (also Collada) use `BKE_mesh_assign_object` to assign a mesh
(already in main, has a usercount of 1) to a fresh object.
That function does a bunch of (unneeded) things (test modifiers/
materials which is not necessary since these are fresh objects) next to
increasing usercount. Collada steers against this by reducing usercount
again. Other importers such as alembic assign the mesh directly to
object data (which is also what this PR proposes).

The original paper only considers the minimal distance of the cluster to
the ray, not the interval length, resulting in low weight for distant
lights that have large influence over a long distance.
This commit modifies the measure by considering `theta_b - theta_a` for
local lights and the ray length `t` for distant lights.

During ray tracing there is a missing resource. On OpenGL this doesn't
matter as it will reuse the previous binding. But on Metal or Vulkan
each resource needs to be added to update bindings.

`mat4x4f` is not found when loading .blend files which were written
before this struct existed. The buffer-overwrite wrote into the buffer
size of our allocator (`MemHead`).
Ever since the introduction of GPU OIDN denoising on CPU devices,
using the path_tracing_device info to pick the automatic denoiser has
typically led to incorrect results.
This commit fixes this issue by using the denoising device info to pick
the denoiser.

The ocean modifier uses its Bake operator for both baking and freeing
the cache, based on the `free` operator property.
There are two bugs here:
1. The "Delete Bake" variant of the button was created using the
`WM_OP_EXEC_DEFAULT` operator context. This skips the `invoke`
callback which is crucial for setting the operator `modifier`
property. Without that the modifier will just exit early.
The "Bake" button is drawn using the `uiItemO` function which uses
the invoke context automatically, so it does not have this issue.
2. The `free` property is set for the "Delete Bake" variant, but was
never reset to its initial `false` value. The "Bake" variant has to
also set this property, otherwise it will always execute the "free"
code path.

- Suppress the warning entirely when the "first time" message
requesting online access is shown as it adds unnecessary noise.
- Otherwise, when offline, show a message suggesting to allow online
access or disable the repository.
The sync with remote repositories would lock-up the interface with no
way to cancel. This could be a problem especially on slow connections.
The operator dialog is now shows the state of syncing which can
be canceled by pressing Escape or clicking away from the dialog.
The default "System" repository which was ordered before "User Default",
order system repositories last as these are a special case many users
won't touch.
Reference identifiers instead of "above" in code comments as these
tends to become outdated. Even when declarations are removed it's at
least clear that the reference no longer exists instead of referring to
whatever is currently above the declaration.
It's also straightforward to search history for a removed identifier.
Corrected 4 cases of references to things that were no longer above
the doc-strings. Noticed other references which look to be incorrect
but need further investigation.
Precompiled Cycles kernels make up a considerable fraction of the total size of
Blender builds nowadays. As we add more features and support for more
architectures, this will only continue to increase.
However, since these kernels tend to be quite compressible, we can save a lot
of storage by storing them in compressed form and decompressing the required
kernel(s) during loading.
By using Zstandard compression with a high level, we can get decent compression
ratios (~5x for the current kernels) while keeping decompression time low
(about 30ms in the worse case in my tests). And since we already require zstd
for Blender, this doesn't introduce a new dependency.
While the main improvement is to the size of the extracted Blender installation
(which is reduced by ~400-500MB currently), this also shrinks the download on
Windows, since .zip's deflate compression is less effective. It doesn't help on
Linux since we're already using .tar.xz there, but the smaller installed size
is still a good thing.
See #123522 for initial discussion.

- Optionally generate a simple HTML page (using --html).
- Links include repository, blender_versnon_* & platform information,
so the information can be used by blender when links are dropped
into Blender.
- Support using a template as the default HTML is primitive.
- Disable enabling on install when installing marked.
This simplifies installing many packages from a repository which can
be useful for testing.
- Fix an error installing marked when a local-only package was marked.
File browser can now show thumbnail view in a larger range of sizes.
Unfortunately there is a lower bound currently set on the icon that is
shown in the middle of the "document" that assumes 64 is the smallest
(the old minimum). This causes these icons to overflow below 64. Just
something that was missed when we allowed smaller sizes. This small
change supports down to 16.

If a non-instanced collection is linked, any collection exporters on the
linked collection would be active and invokable. This is probably not
desired as it could inadvertently overwrite files from the original.
Disable the operators in this case.
See PR for how each of the various append/link scenarios behave.

This is the root cause of broken updates
on local lights.
The same local frustum was used for all of the
tilemap (up to 6) of a light. This made the
`intersect(frustum, box)` call buggy which
would return true only if the object would
intersect with the first tilemap of the light.
This lead to improper updates when the object
would hit this path.

We've seen a ~15% performance regression on Meteor Lake iGPUs since
17f2cdd104, this new compiler version
restores it.
No need to bump the minimum supported driver version as it was already
at 101.5518.

This is an alternative fix to #123524.
This is necessary, because `sculpt_update_object` is run after
the mesh is evaluated, but before the geometry depsgraph operation
is done. Only after this depsgraph node is done, `DEG_object_geometry_is_evaluated`
will return true.
This approach of `unchecked` methods has been preferred for now
over moving the call to `BKE_sculpt_update_object_after_eval`
to a separate depsgraph node or after depsgraph evaluation.
Cycles automatic denoiser picker assumed that OIDN could not be
run on the GPU while the CPU was the render device. So if the user was
using their CPU for rendering, the automatic denoiser picker would
"fallback" to a different denoiser (OptiX or CPU OIDN). This was true
in Blender 4.1, but changed in 4.2. The UI assumed that OIDN could run
on the GPU if there was a compatible OIDN GPU device.
This lead to a issue on systems using the CPU for rendering
while having a NVIDIA GPU installed in the system. The
UI suggested that OIDN would be used, and would switch between
CPU and GPU depending on user preferences. But the automatic
denoiser picker in Cycle's backend said OIDN could not run on
the GPU in this situation and would always "fallback" to the
OptiX denoiser running on the NVIDIA GPU.
This created a mismatch between the UI and what Cycles was
acutally doing. This issue did not effect other GPU vendors because
their "fallback" was the OIDN denoiser.
This commit fixes this issue by aligning the Cycles automatic
denoiser picker in the backend with the UI. Using OIDN if a GPU
is supported, falling back to OptiX if it's not supported,
falling back to OIDN CPU if OptiX isn't supported,
then falling back to no denoiser if that's not supported.

Previously, the node checked for all possible missing evaluations first.
However, some of the outputs may still work even if using another one
could cause a dependency cycle.
