We use column or row headings here to bring more structure, and to give
the eye visual anchors which aid eye-scanning. The left-aligned
checkboxes likewise help with this. And we keep the adherence to the
center line, so the alignment matches up between the various buttons and
controls.
* Changes the property split percentage from 50/50% to 40/60%. This is
needed to give enough space for the checkboxes. But in most cases this
looks better anyway - see Transform panel. In some cases it simply
fills out the available space more efficently.
* Fix various hacks where we previously used manually defined splits.
When we did this, the alignment was never quite right, and the layout
code was a mess.
* Adds column headings to many places where a list of checkboxes all
share a common purpose or leading text.
* Add checkbox + value configurations various places where a checkbox
only serves to enable the value slider
* Removes most uses of grid flow layout. The grid flow layouts combine
poorly with column headings, and also they would mess alignment up
badly. The grid flow layouts also often made buttons and controls jump
around on the screen if you would just resize editors slightly,
causing visual confusion, making users lose their place. The logic for
at what time the list of items would re-flow was often flawed, jumping
to multiple columns too fast or too late - and frankly, the grid flow
layouts would often just look bad.

Note that given how experimental is working currently, I had to rename
and inverse the effect of the experimental undo flag, which will now
instead activate legacy code when set.
This color had it's alpha reduced in the drawing code,
as the active face is no longer stippled.
Now the color is used from the theme without adjusting the alpha.
Also some minor improvements:
- Only run once per object data instance.
- Correction for mesh smooth flag being used on curves.
- Move curve operation into utility function.
Basically this new tool constitutes a macro that uses the parameters of
the Extrude and Translate operators that were recently implemented.
Thanks to @CandleComet for initial implementation.

Menus from the top-bar, space-header and key bindings are used
to gather menus to populate the search popup.
Giving better context and default options for operators.
Part of T74157
Enabling "Developer Extras" exposes operator search in the Edit menu,
as this can be useful for developers to run operators
without first exposing them in the interface.
Use a regular context menu as a fallback for the outliner.
If there are no specific actions for the item under the cursor,
fall through to opening a regular menu.
This lets menu search find the context menu items which were previously
unavailable as menu search wont run operators.
The Layer brush was in Blender before 2.81, when the sculpt API was
introduced. It had a huge amount of bugs and glitches which made it
almost unusable for anything but the most trivial cases. Also, it needed
some hacks in the code just to support the persistent base.
The brush was completely rewritten using the Sculpt API. It fulfills the
same use case as the old one, but it has:
- All previous artifacts fixed
- Simpler code
- Persistent base now works with multires thanks to the sculpt API
- Small cursor widget to preview the layer height
- More controllable and smoother strength and deformation
- More correct masking support
- More predictable invert support. When using persistent base, the brush invert mode resets to layer height 0, instead of jumping from +1 to -1. The brush can still be inverted in the brush direction property.

This mesh filter sharpens and smooths the mesh based on its curvature,
resulting in pinching hard edges and polishing flat surfaces. It fixes
most of the artifacts of the voxel remesher and those produced when
sculpting hard surfaces and stylized models with creasing and flattening
brushes.
It needs and accumulate_displacement step before each filter iteration which
can't be multithreaded in an easy way (it would need something to sync the
threads when modifying the data of neighbors in a different node), but this
does not affect performance in a significant way.

This solution involves adding a uniform to each fragment shader that is
used by gizmo drawing and use the framebuffer state to set this uniform
accordingly.
This solution can also be carried to external shaders (addons).
A single line of code would then be enough to fix the issue.
The only trickery here is the dummy define:
`#define srgb_to_framebuffer_space(a)`
This is in order to avoid breaking other DRW shaders that use the same
fragment shader code but do not need the tranformation.

Add an option to solidify complex which will make faces which have thickness
controlled by vertex weights flat/even, and parallel to their original face.
For each face it uses the minimal weight assigned to its vertices to control
the thickness.
This will help users for example in architecture or basic CAD design by finally
making solidify work there at all if altering thickness is needed.

Adds a slider to solidify which allows the user to add bevel weight on the outside
or remove bevel weight from the inside.
Also includes a very small improvment for working with subsurface modifier where
the rim edge in complex solidify will now also have a chance to get a crease if
there is only two adjacent edges.

* Implemented the algortihm that would merge vertices to the weighted

* Exposed the merge threshold to the user.
The new default tolerance is 0.0001 (versionning code ensures that
previous default value remains in use to avoid any change in existing

Before this commit, baking an action would only insert keys that are
necessary (i.e. using `INSERTKEY_NEEDED`). When baking to the current
Action, if there are no constraints that influence the final animation,
there are no additional keys necessary. This makes it appear as if
nothing happened. However, when baking to a new Action every additional
frame is necessary and thus a key is added for every frame.
@mont29 and I agreed that this behaviour is confusing, so this commit
changes the behaviour such that baking to the current action and to a
new action result in the same baked animation (that is, keyed on every
frame).
Feature can be enabled or disabled in timeline view menu item "Show F-Curves".

The goal is to match other edit menus better and match the text editor.
In Blender 2.81 we update and draw all nodes inside the view planes.
When navigating with a pen tablet after an operation that tags the whole
mesh to update (like undo or inverting the mask), this introduces some
lag as nodes are updating when they enter the view. The viewport is not
fully responsive again until all nodes have entered the view after the
operation.
This commit delays nodes updates until the view navigation stops, so the
viewport navigation is always fully responsive. This introduces some
artifacts while navigating, so it can be disabled if you don't want to
see them.
I'm storing the update planes in the PBVH. This way I can add support
for some tools to update in real-time only the nodes inside this plane
while running the operator, like the mesh filter.

This adds the automasking options to the Sculpt Tool options in a way
that they affect all brushes. This is more convenient when working with
some of these options while switching brushes as they don't need to be
enabled/disabled per brush.
An automasking option is enabled if it is enabled in the brush or in the

With this brush option it is possible to mask the boundary vertices of
