When click-dragging to change values in textures (for example Musgrave-
>Size to give an example) the step size is too big.

Depsgraph: Ensure it's fully evaluated after POST callbacks

It is possible that POST callbacks will modify objects or relations.
This change makes it so an extra update pass is done if needed.

UI: use boolean for sequencer reverse frames

Revert part of 04b86c21bf522

The option to reverse frames is used elsewhere as a boolean
which makes sense since reversing playback is a special case.

Fix: Compile error due to undefined isinf function.

Some implementations of the standard c++ library doesn't define its
functions in the global namespace. So the `isinf` function might
fail in some systems. To fix this, we use the `ensure_finite`
function instead.

Buildbot: enable tests to run again

These will not stop the build on failure yet, first step is to get them passing
more reliably.

Tracking: Enable "Render Undistorted" only if there is actual distortion

Applies to "Setup Tracking Scene" operator which configures background
images for the viewport.

Solves unnecessary slowdown and higher memory usage when camera's model
does not have any effective distortion.

Fix T69522: Render Region not refreshing Output Properties

setting/clearing render region uses ND_RENDER_OPTIONS notifier, but
listener was only refreshing RENDER and VIEWLAYER tabs in that case,
whereas the render region buttons are located in OUTPUT tab.

Mesh Batch Cache: Fix threading issue

I believed the crash I experienced happened because:
1. The `extract_pos_nor_init` function is called.
2. Tasks are added to the task pool for `extract_pos_nor`.
3. The tasks begin to be executed while more tasks are added.
4. In some rare cases, all existing tasks are finished, but not all have been added yet.
5. This let the task-counter go down to zero.
6. This triggered a call to `extract_pos_nor_finish`.
7. Then more tasks are added and in the end `extract_pos_nor_finish` is called again.

A solution is to use a task pool that is suspended when created.
Unfortunately, there was an outdated comment, that was probably the root cause of the issue.

MovieClip: Make name of Active Clip consistent in UI

Using the currently active movie clip had different names in the interface:
In scene context it was "Active Movie Clip", in Camera Background Images it was "Camera Clip", in Constraints it was "ActiveClip".
I made all those instances use "Active Clip", which is descriptive enough and also the shortest of the three.
