Add slider to adjust the influence of weights relative to geometry distortion.
This allows subtle influences to be applied - without drastic changes in behavior.
This commit integrates the work done so far on the new dependency graph system,
where goal was to replace legacy depsgraph with the new one, supporting loads of
neat features like:
- More granular dependency relation nature, which solves issues with fake cycles
in the dependencies.
- Move towards all-animatable, by better integration of drivers into the system.
- Lay down some basis for upcoming copy-on-write, overrides and so on.
The new system is living side-by-side with the previous one and disabled by
default, so nothing will become suddenly broken. The way to enable new depsgraph
is to pass `--new-depsgraph` command line argument.
It's a bit early to consider the system production-ready, there are some TODOs
and issues were discovered during the merge period, they'll be addressed ASAP.
But it's important to merge, because it's the only way to attract artists to
really start testing this system.
There are number of assorted documents related on the design of the new system:
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Aligorith/GSoC2013_Depsgraph#Design_Documents
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/DependencyGraph
There are also some user-related information online:

* http://code.blender.org/2015/03/more-dependency-graph-tricks/
Kudos to everyone who was involved into the project:
- Joshua "Aligorith" Leung -- design specification, initial code
- Lukas "lukas_t" Toenne -- integrating code into blender, with further fixes
- Sergey "Sergey" "Sharybin" -- some mocking around, trying to wrap up the
project and so
- Bassam "slikdigit" Kurdali -- stressing the new system, reporting all the
issues and recording/writing documentation.
- Everyone else who i forgot to mention here :)
This way it is possible to have viewport simplification bumped all the way up,
making viewport really responsive but still have final render to use highest
subdivision possible.

Own regression, previously it would do a full mesh normal calculation for each isolated shape
(could hang on meshes with many loose parts).
However the normals are needed, instead of doing a full calculation,
just set normals on new faces.
Thanks to Brecht for finding cause!
The way we were getting diff to apply to vcos from target object was just bad!
Also, fixed another related issue - negated scale would be clamped to nearly zero,
now only consider absolute version of size (we do not care about its sign here anyway).
This should be backported to 2.74 (with previous commit too).
The issue was caused by missing relations between smoke domain and flow/source
objects. This happened because smoke's modifier only iterated base objects and
ignored cases when flow/source could be linked to scene via dupli-group and
does not have real base.
The same seems to be still needed for fluid and dynamic paint modifiers,
will do it as a separate commit.

bounds indices of vertices.
Issue here is that if we copy edge customdata the MEdge data that were
previously written get overwritten, solution is to write indices and
flags last (probably writing flags is superfluous here).
The issue was actually affecting all data types that are not regular CDLayer ones, since by default
DerivedMesh references mesh data (verts, edges, etc. - modifying custom normals often implies
modifying edges' sarpness too).
Modfying edge/face sharpness etc. could directly affect the mesh in this case, **bad**!
So we detect whether we are copying data types that may affect non-CDlayers data, and whether
verts array of org dm is same as mesh one - in which case we copy the DM. This avoids
useless copying in most cases.
Note Edit Normals was quite obviously suffering the same issue.
Error in custom split normals work, non-autosmooth normals != vertex normals!
Loops from flat faces shall take normal of their face, not their vertex.
Tsst...
Nothing much to say here, basic tool to make normals point toward a target,
or to make them point 'outward' as if object was a spheroid (useful for game bushes etc.).
Also, forgot a big thank you to Campbell for the extensive review work he has done on this project!
- Add falloff types & curves (matching warp-modifier)
- Add uniform scale option,
important when adding hooks to non-uniform scaled objects,
especially for use with lattice objects which can't avoid uneven scaling.
This uses relative transformation set when the hook is assigned,
when measuring the distances.
