Cleanup: fix const discard warning

No functional changes.

Nodes: add boilerplate for image sockets

The sockets are not exposed in any nodes yet.
They work similar to the Object/Collection/Texture sockets,
which also just reference a data block.

Cleanup: asset browser, remove invalid assertion

Remove `BLI_assert_unreachable()` in a spot that is actually easily
reachable. To reach, follow these steps:
- Configure three asset libraries (say A, B, and C) in preferences
- Set the asset browser to library C and save the file
- Remove asset library C from the preferences
- Reopen the file.

Filebrowser: Expose file select functions for File Browser to Python API.

This patch adds activate_file_by_relative_path(relative_path="") and
deselect_all() function to the space api of the File Browser. While the
first sets the active file and adds it to the selection based on a
relative path to the current File Browser directory the second one
deselects all files but does not change the active file.

Alembic: avoid crash when Cycles is not enabled

The Alembic/CacheFile modifier supports Cycles procedurals when Cycles
is configured to use experimental features; the check for this would
segfault on builds with `WITH_CYCLES=OFF`. This is now fixed by adding
an extra NULL check.

Fix T91398 Overlay: Camera BG jitter offset (regression)

This was caused by camera background being rendered in world space, causing
floating point imprecision issues when camera was far from origin.

Adding a uniform to change vertex shader to process everything in viewspace
to fix the problem.

Fix T92200: VSE: 2D Cursor position missing viewport update

Was using notifier from wrong space (copy-paste error in rBd04d27b406b8).

Fix shadow catcher behind transparent object on GPU

The assumption about absent shadow path was wrong.

The rest of the changes are to ensure shadow paths are finished prior
to the split, so that they write to the proper passes.

The issue was caught by running regression tests on OptiX.

WM: quiet output of delete object operator

Object deletion was reporting the number of objects deleted,
causing tests to print noisy output.

Now this is information is only included when invoked.

Cleanup: remove historic reference from makesdna.c

We have mostly removed information about original authors,
as this information isn't so useful.

Cleanup: use dot-points for appdir platform specific paths

Cleanup: reserve C++ comments for disabled code

Cleanup: silence Clang missing-braces warning.

Geometry Nodes: Add Offset Option to Set Postion

Add a boolean field to the Set Position Node. This value allows
for each point to either have its position set to the input position
value or have the input value added to the current position.

Cleanup: avoid using size for array length in naming

Confusing when array allocation takes two kinds of size arguments.

Cleanup: pass the sizeof(..) as the second arg for array allocation

By argument naming and convention this is the intended argument order.

Fix compile error with 'WITH_CXX_GUARDEDALLOC'

Cleanup: clang-tidy, clang-format & spelling
