The file subversion is no longer used in the Python API or user interface,
and is now internal to Blender.
User interface, Python API and file I/O metadata now use more consistent
formatting for version numbers. Official releases use "2.83.0", "2.83.1",
and releases under development use "2.90.0 Alpha", "2.90.0 Beta".
Some Python add-ons may need to lower the Blender version in bl_info to
(2, 83, 0) or (2, 90, 0) if they used a subversion number higher than 0.

This change is in preparation of LTS releases, and also brings us more
in line with semantic versioning.
Fixes T76058.

Some types were documented in bpy.types aren't accessible there.
For now, disable documenting types from add-ons and some types from
bl_operators, bl_ui... since these are mostly for internal use.
In 2.7x UV sculpt was a kind of sub-mode
(a toggle with it's own key-map & drawing code).
Move this to an operator that uses the tool-system,
this simplifies internal logic, especially brush selection
which now matches sculpt and other paint modes.
- Remove toggle used to enable uv sculpt.
- Expose the brush, which was already used but there was no way to
select different brushes.
- Make UV sculpt use paint paint tool slots
(using brushes how all other paint mode currently do).
- Move UV Sculpt keymap to the tools keymap.
- Remove Q to toggle UV sculpt mode,
S/P/G keys to switch tools.
There is a new `bpy.app.timers` api.
For more details, look in the Python API documentation.

The HTML title did not make it clear that these are docs for the API rather
than a general Blender documentation. Some of the page titles were also too
long and redundant.
Maybe it's still early to set the new drawing api for python.
But joining these two modules is an initial step.
```
>>> gpu.
matrix

```
```
>>> gpu.types.GPU
Batch(
OffScreen(
VertBuf(
VertFormat(
```
The creation of a new offscreen object is now done by the `GPUOffscreen.__new__` method.
