* Change Address the poor performance of the existing unique-name generation
As described in Issue 16849, the existing Tools::getUniqueName method
requires calling code to form a vector of existing names to be avoided.
This leads to poor performance both in the O(n) cost of building such a
vector and also getUniqueName's O(n) algorithm for actually generating
the unique name (where 'n' is the number of pre-existing names).
This has particularly noticeable cost in documents with large numbers
of DocumentObjects because generating both Names and Labels for each new
object incurs this cost. During an operation such as importing this
results in an O(n^2) time spent generating names.
The other major cost is in the saving of the temporary backup file,
which uses name generation for the "files" embedded in the Zip file.
Documents can easily need several such "files" for each object in the
document.
This is the first part of the correction, adding an efficient class for
managing sets of unique names.
New class UniqueNameManager keeps a list of existing names organized in
a manner that eases unique-name generation. This class essentially acts
as a set of names, with the ability to add and remove names and check if
a name is already there, with the added ability to take a prototype name
and generate a unique form for it which is not already in the set.
a new unit test for UniqueNameManager has been added as well.
There is a small regression, compared to the existing unique-name code,
insofar as passing a prototype name like "xyz1234" to the old code would
yield "xyz1235" whether or not "xyz1234" already existed, while the new
code will return the next name above the currently-highest name on the
"xyz" model, which could be "xyz" or "xyz1" or "xyz0042"..
This commit renames methods of ServiceProvider to be easier to
understand. It also replaces the misleading singleton with more correct
here global instance of class.
This is intended to be used for intra-module communication. Modules can
specify service that are then implemented by other modules. This way
we can use features from for example part in Core without relying on the
Part module explicitly.
Base does provide Service definition - which is basically an abstract
class with pure virtual methods. This service then can be implemented
in other modules and accessed in runtime via ServiceProvider class that
stores all implementations.
ServiceProvider does store multiple implementations so in theory it is
possible to use it to provide granular implementations. For example,
part can provide CenterOfMass service that provides center of mass for
part features, mesh can implement another one for meshes and then we can
iterate over all implementations and find one that can provide center of

document.
This update includes the following changes:
Create UniqueNameManager to keep a list of existing names organized in
a manner that eases unique-name generation. This class essentially acts
as a set of names, with the ability to add and remove names and check if
a name is already there, with the added ability to take a prototype name
and generate a unique form for it which is not already in the set.
Eliminate Tools::getUniqueName
Make DocumentObject naming use the new UniqueNameManager class
Make DocumentObject Label naming use the new UniqueNameManager class.
Labels are not always unique; unique labels are generated if the
settings at the time request it (and other conditions). Because of this
the Label management requires additionally keeping a map of counts
for labels which already exist more than once.
These collections are maintained via notifications of value changes on
the Label properties of the objects in the document.
Add Document::containsObject(DocumentObject*) for a definitive
test of an object being in a Document. This is needed because
DocumentObjects can be in a sort of limbo (e.g. when they are in the
Undo/Redo lists) where they have a parent linkage to the Document but
should not participate in Label collision checks.
Rename Document.getStandardObjectName to getStandardObjectLabel
to better represent what it does.
Use new UniqueNameManager for Writer internal filenames within the zip
file.
Eliminate unneeded Reader::FileNames collection. The file names
already exist in the FileList collection elements. The only existing
use for the FileNames collection was to determine if there were any
files at all, and with FileList and FileNames being parallel
vectors, they both had the same length so FileList could be used
for this test..
Use UniqueNameManager for document names and labels. This uses ad hoc
UniqueNameManager objects created on the spot on the assumption that
document creation is relatively rare and there are few documents, so
although the cost is O(n), n itself is small.
Use an ad hoc UniqueNameManager to name new DymanicProperty entries.
This is only done if a property of the proposed name already exists,
since such a check is more-or-less O(log(n)), almost never finds a
collision, and avoids the O(n) building of the UniqueNameManager.
If there is a collision an ad-hoc UniqueNameManager is built
and discarded after use.
The property management classes have a bit of a mess of methods
including several to populate various collection types with all
existing properties. Rather than introducing yet another such
collection-specific method to fill a UniqueNameManager, a
visitProperties method was added which calls a passed function for
each property. The existing code would be simpler if existing
fill-container methods all used this.
Ideally the PropertyContainer class would keep a central directory of
all properties ("static", Dynamic, and exposed by ExtensionContainer and
other derivations) and a permanent UniqueNameManager. However the
Property management is a bit of a mess making such a change a project
unto itself.
The unit tests for Tools:getUniqueName have been changed to test
UniqueNameManager.makeUniqueName instead.
This revealed a small regression insofar as passing a prototype name
like "xyz1234" to the old code would yield "xyz1235" whether or
not "xyz1234" already existed, while the new code will return the next
name above the currently-highest name on the "xyz" model, which could
be "xyz" or "xyz1".
* Correct wrong case on include path
* Implement suggested code changes
Also change the semantics of visitProperties to not have any short-circuit return
* Remove reference through undefined iterator
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

* Fix up some comments for DOxygen

When restarting the application (e.g. after installing an addon) the application will be closed and a new instance will be launched. Now it can happen that the old instance is still busy writing the config files to disk while the new instance wants to read them in. At this time it's possible that a config file is in an invalid state so that the new instance will ignore it but then starts with a default configuration.
Later when closing the new instance the config files will be overwritten and destroy the user's original settings.
By using a lock file this race condition will be avoided. It uses a timeout of 1 second that should be enough for the old instance to write the files to disk.
