A repeat of the problem I caused last time I edited the startup file.
Never do it with a lite build! Also align the toolbar widths in all
editors to the smallest size they snap to.
Simply removing the check for `UI_STATE_TEXT_INPUT` makes it inherit
the "List Item" User Interface theme settings. This patch changes the
default theme to match the colors of text input fields.

need more contrast but that's a different patch).

Even never-shown RNA properties should have at least a description, as
this is used by API doc generation scripts.
NOTE: this is more of an opportunistic set of changes than a proper
complete fix of that loack of documentation.
* Fix systematic skipping of labels when they are the same as
the identifier (Some cases are valid, like `RGB` or `HSV` e.g.).
* Add instead heuristics checks to skip non-UI properties (non-capitalized,
or same name as identifier and Operator properties, mainly).
* Skip `bl_icon` and `icon` properties.
* Properly search for properties in all parent classes (some cases with
e.g. `Panel` would break due to intermediary utils classes, leading to
those internal UI properties not being skipped as expected).

Support for fallback tools with right-click select needed
the industry compatible key-map to be updated.
The name and tooltip were talking about file-lists, which exposes the
fact that the Asset Browser uses the File Browser code in the UI, which
we shouldn't do. This can confuse users.
Instead have a dedicated operator for the Asset Browser with a proper
name and tooltip.
Before this, the search button was quite small really, not much text would fit
into it. Increase the size a bit, but not too much to still make the layout
work in smaller area sizes.

To celebrate the beginning of a new series, it feels like the right time to
give the theme a fresh look while improving on what already works.
The aim of this refresh is to keep a familiar look but with polishing touches
here and there. Like new paint on the walls of your well known house.
The theme for Blender 2.8 was well received but presented a few flaws.
* Transparency on menus and tooltips reduce readability
* Mismatch on certain colors, especially outlines of connected widgets
* Active/open menus highlight was not prominent enough
* Header background mismatch in some editors
At the same time we can make use of new features in 3.0:
* Make panels look like panels again (like in v2.3!)
* Make use of roundness in more widgets
* Since nodes are no longer hard-coded to be transparent, tweak opacity and saturation
* Tweak colors for the new dot grid
This update does not include:
* Meshes in edit mode to match greenish object-data color. This needs tweaks in the code to improve contrast.
* A copy of the Blender 2.8x legacy theme. This could be added to the community themes (shouldn't cost much maintenance, I hope)
There will be certainly small tweaks to do here and there, I've been working using this theme
for months but there can be areas that are missing update. The overall style is presented here.
This commit bumps the file subversion.

These nodes allow accessing and changing the stable/random ID used
for motion blur with instances and stable randomness.
Since rB40c3b8836b7a, the stable ID is a built-in attribute, so to be
consistent and allow changing it in the node tree like other built-in
attributes, it has get and set nodes.
This patch changes how nodes look visually, in an attempt to fix a number of issues:
* The header background is currently drawn using a theme color fully opaque, this limits the colors we can use because the node name/label is drawn on top.
* Hard-coded transparency makes nodes hard to read. The node backdrop already has alpha so if the user wants it they can set it. This patch uses alpha from the theme.
* Better muted status indicator, instead of simply making everything transparent and the wires inside red, draw a red outline around the node, darken the header and backdrop.
* On muted nodes, display wires behind the backdrop to not interfere with text/widgets inside the node.
Nodes:
* Darken header to improve readability of node label.
* Draw a line under the header
* Thicker outline.
* Do not hard-code transparency on nodes, use the theme's node backdrop alpha component.
* Use angle icon instead of triangle (to be consistent with the [[ https://developer.blender.org/D12814 | changes ]] to panels)
Style adjustment to sockets drawing:
* Do not hard-code the socket outline color to black, use `TH_WIRE` instead
* Do not use `TH_TEXT_HI` for selected sockets, use `TH_ACTIVE` (active node outline)
* Do not draw sockets background transparent on muted nodes.
* Thicker outline to help contrast and readability

Now that object assets are no longer considered experimental, the Assets
submenu can always be shown (regardless of the Extended Asset Browser
experimental feature).
In the 3D Viewport, add an "Assets" submenu to the Objects menu, for the
same operators as available in the outliner: Mark as Asset, Clear Asset,
Clear Asset (Set Fake User).
Since object assets are still considered experimental, the menu is only
shown when the Extended Asset Browser experimental feature is enabled.
In future use cases, a volume can contain many grids that represent the
density information. In this case, it's better if the volume to mesh node
creates a mesh based on all of the grids in the volume.
This is also a benefit to share-ability, since one doesn't have to
specify the grid name in the node. Instead, in the future we can have
a way to split particular grids into separate volumes, if only one
grid should be considered.
The code changes are relatively simple:
- Move the old volume to mesh node to the legacy folder.
- Run the volume to mesh node on all instance geometry, like elsewhere.
- Make the blenkernel's volume to mesh API a bit more specific.

Cycles:Distance Scrambling for Cycles Sobol Sampler
This option implements micro jittering an is based on the INRIA
research paper [[ https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01325702/document | on micro jittering ]]
and work by Lukas Stockner for implementing the scrambling distance.
It works by controlling the correlation between pixels by either using
a user supplied value or an adaptive algorithm to limit the maximum
deviation of the sample values between pixels.

Currently, both inactive and active tabs are using the `Region Text` theme property.

Since this check is done in other places already but was simply missing in this case, I believe this was just an oversight and not a design decision.

Avoid blocking the UI when searching for animation channels with Ctrl+F.
Instead of showing a single text input in a blocking popup, Ctrl+F now
just focuses the search box above the channel list. It feels nicer to
use and has the niceties that come from using that textbox, like
searching per keystroke, compared to the old pop-up method.
As the behaviour of the operator has changed considerably, this also
changes the operator name from `anim.channels_find` to
`anim.channels_select_filter` and updates the keymaps.

This patch makes the background grid of the node editor a grid of dots
instead of lines. This makes the background look a bit more subtle and
reduces visual complexity. The dots are meant to provide a reference
when panning and zooming. Based on the design of @pablovazquez, and
a patch originally authored by @fabian_schempp.
The "Grid Levels" controls how many levels of dots are drawn. As the
editor zooms in, the higher levels of dots fade in, making them closer
together visually. The zoom factor at which each grid starts and ends
fading in is controllable in the code, and could be tweaked further
in the future. The new default value is 7, out of a range from 0 to 9.

This patch makes the layout of the custom property panel more coherent
with the rest of the property editor interface, makes it less busy,
allows more space for the buttons for the actual properties, and
simplifies editing values of unsupported property types or long arrays.
- Remove the box around each property.
- Use an non-embossed X icon for deleting.
- Use an "edit" icon instead of the text for the meta-data edit operator.
The "gear" icon used for editing isn't ideal here.
- Increase the max array length for drawing the values directly to 8.
- Add an "Edit Property Value" operator for dictionaries or longer arrays.
- Replace the "Library Override" text with an icon.
- Use a proper split factor, the same as the rest of the UI.

The NLA editor is in need of a design overhaul, hopefully for 3.1 or 3.2.
This should be a project on itself, however, the worst offender currently is the use of
gradients on strips. Something that can be fixed easily.

This adds a new image texture node for geometry nodes. It does not
reuse the same node that is used in shading, because we want to be
able to expose the image and frame as sockets.
There is a known update issue when a movie or image sequence is
used. That will be fixed separately (also see D12957).
Currently, the image socket is just a pointer to an Image ID data block.
This can contain single images but also movies and image sequences.
In the future, the definition of an image socket can be expanded to
include images that are generated from scratch in the node tree.
For more details read the discussion in D12827.
Some of the code is a direct port from cycles and should be cleaned
up a bit in the future. For example `image_cubic_texture_lookup`.
For still images, the frame input is ignored. Otherwise, the frame
has to be in a valid range for the node to work. In the future we
may add e.g. automatic looping functionality.

* Open File Browser when pressing "Add Asset Library". This just makes sense,
since users have to select a directory for the asset library anyway.
* Move '+' icon back to the right side of the box. Then it is right under the
'x' icons for each indivdual library, which seems like the more natural
place.
* Correct tooltip for the "Add Asset Library" operator.
* Mark empty asset library name or paths field in red, to make clear that these
need to be set.
This node takes a geometry set with instances as input and outputs
points located on the origins of the top level of instances in the
geometry set (not nested instances). It also has position and radius
inputs to allow overriding the default, and a selection input to only
generate points for some instances.
The use case for this node is a method to use geometry proximity on
instance origins, but in a more generic way that is flexible and useful
in other situations.
