Added a cast needed to shut up an error in last commit.

Fix Cycles world volume scattering missing light in some cases

With very large distances there were precision / overflow errors, normalize
the average albedo to avoid that. This was causing test failures on macOS
Arm, but also other architectures had slightly wrong results.

Ref T78710

Change Exact Boolean modifier to skip round trip through BMesh.

The Exact modifier code had been written to avoid using BMesh but
in the initial release the modifier still converted all Meshes to
BMeshes, and then after running the boolean code on the BMeshes,
converted the result back to a Mesh.
This change skips that. Most of the work here is in getting the
Custom Data layers right. The approach taken is to merge default
layers from all operand meshes into the final result, and then
use the original verts, edges, polys, and loops to copy or interpolate
the appropriate custom data layers from all operands into the result.

Fix memory leak when loading previous preferences from splash screen

When opening a Blender version for which there are no preferences, the splash
shows a button like "Load 2.92 Settings". Using this could cause a memory leak
of the storage for recently opened files.

UI: Correct the text alignment in the quick setup (splash screen) dialog

The "quick setup" dialog is actually a 'menu', and the "splash screen" block
contains the UI_BLOCK_LOOP flag which causes the buttons' text to align
to the left, however, usually regular buttons have centered text.

As a workaround, add the UI_BLOCK_QUICK_SETUP flag which prevents
the text from being left-aligned.

PyAPI: use postponed annotations to support Python 3.10

Support Python 3.10a5 or 3.9x with support explicitly enabled.

- Enable Python's postponed annotations for Blender's RNA classes
types registered on startup.

- Using postponed annotations has implications for how they are defined,
since they must evaluate in the modules name-space instead of the
classes name-space. See changes to annotations in `release/scripts`.

- Use `from __future__ import annotations` at the top of the module
to ensure the script will run with Python 3.10.

- Old logic is kept since it could be used if PEP-649 is supported.

PyAPI: expose bpy_prop_deferred function & keywords

While not needed for Blender, Animation Nodes uses this information,
expose this information for scripts to access that need it.

Cleanup: remove unused layers property from template

Also remove unused imports.

Cleanup: remove duplicate settings from operator_mesh_add template

Also move align items into the enum call as there is no need to have
this accessible from the class.
