Initial string socket type

The internal implementation is working, but not very efficient yet (every string
is allocated separately without any cache). I'm still thinking about a better
solution, but for now having any working text socket is more important.

UI: Graph Editor Dot Scaling

Scale Graph Editor keyframe dots and handles based on Resolution Scale rather than Line Width.

LibOverride: Fix broken Hook modifier case.

Hook modifier uses same kind of parent inverse matrix as regular object
parenting, so we need to bypass that matrix re-computation when setting
the overridding object here as well.

Also cleanup some minor glitches in object parents' override_apply func.

Add path to `make deps`

Edit Mesh: Poly build tool improvements

This commit changes the functionality of the Poly build tool to make it more suitable for retopology tasks:
- Click and drag from a boundary edge extrudes a new quad
- Click and drag on vertices tweaks the position
- Ctrl + click adds geometry. There is a geometry preview in the gizmo. It also can automatically convert triangles to quads.
- Shift + click deletes mesh elements (faces or vertices)
- Updated preselection code. Different mesh elements take priority depending on the selected action.

Fix T69210: Crash on Making GPencil Materials zero user

The evaluated data must not copy the material if it's NULL.

Still the stroke exists in the file, so maybe need some thinking in how resolve this, but anyway this is a different topic not related to bug.

Cleanup: Remove outdated TODO comments

Also add a comment on prop_with_popover usage.

Remove confirmation popup for creating new directory

GPencil: Draw Mode menu update

- Rename menu 'Stroke' to 'Draw': the menu includes not only strokes related things and the name follows the usage in other paint modes in Blender.
- Remove duplicate animation operators.
- Menu updates to include clean up and layers operators that don't need previous selection.

Correct string translation logic

Refactors BLI_filelist_entry_datetime_to_string so that user message
strings are created in UI code, not BLI. That way we can also handle
translations correctly and better.
