Property Search: Set panel expansion when tab changes

This commit makes the panel expansion set based on the search results
when the active tab in the properties editor changes. The multi-tab
search patch (D8859) actually doesn't handle this because it uses a
different code path.

This feature uncovered a subtle but fairly significant issue with the
implementation of property search (More details in T81113). Basically,
the search needed multiple redraws to properly display the expansion of
panels based on the search results. Because there is no animation of
panel expansion when switching tabs, the problem was exposed only now.

With this commit, hiding of "search only" buttons and panel size
calculation happens in a single final step of the panel layout pass.
The "search only" layout root flag is removed. Instead every button
inside a panel header is in a single "uiButtonGroup" marked with a
specific "in header" flag, an idea which could be generalized in the
future.

Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D9006

Cleanup: use BLI_path_join in appdir.c to simplify logic

Change `test_path` function so:

- Joining paths calls a function instead of being performed inline.
- Optional NULL paths must always be ordered last (easier to follow).

Other minor changes:

- Remove FIXME comment is it's handled properly by BLI_path_join.
- The wrong size was being used copying into `targetpath`.

Cleanup: Remove/replace C standard library assert() and header usages

We have our own assert implementation, `BLI_assert()` that is prefered over the
C standard library one. Its output is more consistent across compilers and
makes termination on assert failure optional (through `WITH_ASSERT_ABORT`).

In many places we'd include the C library header without ever accessing it.

Cleanup: Remove dead code in panel logic

The region types checked here were removed from the editors in 9e2abbc9ba5d and
eb7485389b8a. So the if-conditions would never be true.

Fix error in recent change "run UserDef versioning from readfile.c"

Missed moving the defines in CMake for e255040c7797
causing cycles not to be enabled.

Cleanup: use doxy sections for appdir.c

Keep related functionality grouped.

Cleanup: comments for appdir

Use doxy syntax & minor improvements.

GPencil: Fix unreported wrong name for RNA setter

The Vertex Group setter function name was wrong for Tint modifier.

Cleanup: move temp directory environment checks into a loop

Minimizes ifdef'd code for WIN32.

Fix invalid temp-dir for image-project on unsaved files

The preferences tempdir being used instead of bpy.app.tempdir.

Preferences: remove temp directory initialization for WIN32

Revert 76b1a27f96ffe1ec8c5351f34bcc2b9733b4483e since there is no
reason windows should behave differently to other platforms.

This was added so Windows users wouldn't see "/tmp/" in the UI.

Since then the default temporary directory is a blank string,
leave blank on all systems as Python script authors may accidentally
use this instead of `bpy.app.tempdir`.

Cleanup: remove unused temp directory initialization

This last worked in v2.27 (2003) where all paths were initialized to "/"
which was still checked to initialize the temp directory.

This hasn't been the case since 932e9e831647604e0b129b55e5ab035
where it changed to "/tmp/", then an empty string (current default).

Fix stack use after scope error after recent cleanup

An error adding search to an existing button,
caused by my own error in rBa4aa94c41cb79e9.

UI: Create button group if none exists

This makes it unecessary to create a button group when the block
is created, giving more flexibility when creating the first group-- for
example, creating the first button group with special parameters.

UI: Move button groups from layout to block level

For a future patch (D9006) we need these groups for longer than just the
the layout process, in order to differentiate buttons in panel headers.
It may also be helpful in the future to have a way to access related
buttons added in the same uiLayout.prop call. With this commit, the
groups are stored in and destructed with the uiBlock.

Cleanup: remove unused code in blend file loading

v2.4x could cancel loading files that warned of being a newer,
unsupported version.

Remove this logic since it's no longer in use.

readfile: always run setup_app_data after updating defaults

When blend files were loaded with app-templates,
setup_app_data was running before defaults were updated.

This is likely to cause problems with order of initialization
so always update the startup file beforehand.

Cleanup: rename main preferences versioning function

BLO_version_defaults_userpref_blend -> blo_do_versions_userdef

The name was misleading as it was declared along with
BLO_update_defaults_startup_blend making it seem these functions were
related.

In fact preference defaults don't need to be updated as is done for
startup.blend since an in-memory blend file isn't used.

Rename the function to match other versioning functions
called from readfile.c. Also add/update comments on these differences.

Cleanup: run UserDef versioning from readfile.c

Now versioning UserDef is run in readfile.c,
as is done for other Blender data.

Previously versioning was mixed with other run-time initialization,
so it needed to be called later by the window manager.

Cleanup: centralize versioning

readfile.c's versioning function was only used for 2 variables.
Move versioning into versioning_userdef.c so everything
is done in one function.

Note: DNA_struct_elem_find checks have been replaced with checks for
the next released version.
This is harmless, as only old preferences saved between releases can
have their values overwritten.

Note: userdef versioning should be called from `do_versions_userdef`,
this will be done separately.
