feature sources, instead of requiring them to be loaded into a project first
This change allows users to directly browse to non disk-based layer sources
for any processing feature source inputs. It allows these inputs to be
taken direct from postgres, sql server, oracle, wfs, afs, etc layers directly
without having to first load them into a project!
to a single string
We need this to allow processing inputs to load non gdal/ogr/mdal sources, such
as being able to directly read postgis layers without loading them into a project first
- added new `QString QgsField::displayType( const bool showConstraints = false )` to unify the display of field types whenever length or precision are present
- added new argument `expression` to `QgsFieldModel::fieldToolTip( const QgsField &field, const QString &expression = QStringLiteral() )`. Now the tooltip shows "<alias> (<field>)\n<type>\n<comment>\n<expression>" with appropriate formatting
- added meaningful field tooltips in the "Identify Results" dialog
- field tooltips show the same content in "Feature Attributes" form, "Attribute Table" and "Identify Tool"
Fixes#15144
"development/debugging" tools
These tools appear in a new Development/Debugging Tools dock,
and provide a unified handling and place for these tools in the
UI.
The intention here is that specialised development/debugging tools
will be moved to this common interface, e.g.
- network logger
- first aid style Python local variables inspector
- startup time debugging tools
- layer load and rendering time debugging tools

[FEATURE] Implements resampling from values on vertices to values on faces with the neighbor average method. (note that resampling method for datasets defined on faces, e.g., the value on vertices is calculated from value on faces was added in the previous QGIS release)
The default method is set to "none" for resampling from vertices to faces and to "neighbor average" for resampling from faces to vertices. Then the default rendering is now always smooth.
fixes#33978 Allows user to color the mesh layer vector dataset (arrow, stream lines, traces) with color ramp shader depending on the magnitude of the vector.
This style represents decimal numbers as vulgar fractions, e.g.
"3/4" instead of 0.75.
Options include using Unicode superscript and subscript characters
for nicer typography, e.g. ¹⁷/₂₃ (this is the default mode, disabling
this option uses the "17/23" format). An option also exists for
using dedicated unicode characters for specific fractions (where
a unicode character exists), e.g. ½ or ¾
Ultimately this allows for creation of scalebars with fractional
representations of distances, e.g. 0 ----- ½ ----- 1 km
(instead of 0 ------ 0.5 ------ 1km)
Fixes#21289

when canvas has a locked scale
In these particular actions, we should ignore the canvas scale
lock so that the canvas correctly zooms to the specified extent
and matches user expectations
In particular this fixes:
- zooming to bookmarks
- matching canvas extent to layout map extents
- zooming to layer and feature extents
- pushing layout map scales from layout maps to canvas
Also improve dox
