Weld Modifier: Reduce size of the leaf nodes to half

This improves performance by reducing the amount of false positives.

A self overlap is made, so the distance from the vertices in the
overlap nodes is actually added.

Cycles: Suppress OSL normalize function warnings.

This patch suppress the OSL warnings resulted from ambiguous calls
to the normalize function. This is done by casting to the vector
type before normalizing.

Weight Paint: implement a red shade for bones with locked weights.

Blender supports locking vertex groups to prevent changes to the
weights. However, as mentioned in comments for D3837, it is hard
to use this because there is no interface for locking in 3D View.

This adds a red shade to bones that are associated with a locked
weight group during weight paint mode, as the first step to adding
such interface. The next step is adding a pie menu for lock/unlock.

Cleanup: factorize collection handling in libquery code.

Both actual Collection datablocks and the horrible master collection
should share the same code (there were already some differences,
although probably not critical, but some callbacks from
scene->master_collection did not have the 'not self' flag...).

Cleanup: remove dead code in full scene copy/make single users area.

Fix T73170: New Scene -> "Full Copy" Crashes Blender.

rBac723db57fd8ba5 makes proper remapping of all pointers in Scene...
including the object pointers of bases in ViewLayers.

Using `BKE_main_collection_sync_remap()` makes sense here anyway
(compared to `BKE_main_collection_sync()`, it additionally clears caches
in ViewLayers and Collections), this whole code makes a lot of
remapping.

Note that I do not really understand *why* that was working OK
before rBac723db57fd8ba5. I.E. *why* not remapping at all ViewLayers'
base object pointers seemed to be OK...

This whole collection/viewlayer caching is very hard to follow, and
really needs a full rework at some point (just as much as ID copying
code in general, and scene copying code in particular, in fact).

Cleanup of previous rBac723db57fd8ba5 commit.

Simplify a bit, and remove some now redundant remappings.

As a side note, rBac723db57fd8ba5 actually also fixed some unreported
issues (missing remappings to new objects/collections in new copied
scene, that were not previously handled by the 'custom' code).

There are almost certainly still some missing remappings around,
though...

Fix memory leak when full-copying a scene after recent changes.

Once again, am not exactly sure why that was working before, and not
anymore - but in any case, doing that kind of update here is not only
useless (since we have to do it at the end of the whole
collections/objects duplication and remapping anyway), it is also rather
dangerous, as collections are currently in rather invalid states at that
point of the code...

Note that in ideal world, `BKE_main_collection_sync()` & co would be
lazy (setting only a flag, then code actually needing this to be valid
again should call some sort of `BKE_main_collection_sync_ensure()`).
Then we would not have to worry about such things (and we'd get nice
performance improvements in some cases, also in main remapping code,
etc.).

Food for some refactoring, some day...

Fix T67942 EEVEE: Crash when empty is set as camera and motion blur is on

Fix lightprobe creation from python data API

### Description of the problem

Until now, it is only possible to correctly add a lightprobe in python via an operator:
`bpy.ops.object.lightprobe_add()`

### Description of the proposed solution

The idea of this patch is to fix the lack of consistency lightprobe creation without operator.
It allow creation of different lightprobe type directly via `bpy.data.lightprobes.new(name, type)` (such as for curves).

In order to make it possible I had to:
1. Add a function `BKE_lightprobe_configure` in charge of lightprobe settings configuration (avoid code redundancy)
2. Allow an object to take lightprobe datablock as data during is initialization.

### A short example of this patch usage

```
lp = bpy.data.lightprobes.new('some_name','PLANAR')

bpy.data.objects.new('toto', lp)

```

Gizmo: draw dial arc only over one rotation to avoid artifacts

There were some visual artifacts when the spin gizmo had a rotation
greater than 360 degrees.

Avoids this by drawing the arc over the span of one rotation only
and adjusting the background color based on the rotation count.

DRW: Use USHORT for vertex color and upload them in linear color to the GPU

This way we remove the need for the srgb boolean uniform and a lot of code complexity. However, mesh update is going to be a bit slower.

I did not benchmark the performance impact.

This also fix a typo in draw_cache_impl_particles.c and fix hair not using vertex color in workbench.

Make the scene preview range not clamp the start/end values

This will make this consistent with the behaviour of other start/end
ranges in blender. So start/end will instead be adjusted to always
satisfy the "start >= end" requirement instead of clamping the values.
