The root point of a bone is now always drawn unless it is connected to an other bone.

This makes the bones transparent when the object or the viewport display
type is Wireframe. This is in order to make things consistent.
In object mode all bones are fully transparent to not create more visual
noise if the scene is complex.
Another small addition is that the Bounding Box draw mode now works as
expected on armatures.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.

Computing the shape of a B-Bone is a quite expensive operation, and
there are multiple constraints that can access this information in
a variety of useful ways. This means computing the shape once per
bone and saving it is good for performance.
Since the shape may depend on the position of up to two other bones,
often in a "cyclic" manner, this computation has to be a separate
node with its own dependencies.

Both original handle types are based on location, and Absolute uses it
in a weird way: the Start handle uses the head, while End uses the tail.
This makes controlling the shape of the B-Bone via control bone rotation
really non-intuitive, especially if trying to add a single control for
the tangent in the middle of a B-Bone chain.
To remedy this, add a new custom handle type that uses the orientation
of the control bone, while completely ignoring location. It is even
possible to control both ends of one B-Bone with the same handle bone,
resulting in an S shape.

Specifically, it should always use the position of the custom handle
bone head, even when affecting the handle at the tail of the main bone,
and shouldn't apply the special handling for joining two B-Bones.
This handle type was unusably broken before a bug fix included in
recent changes, so it should be safe to break backward compatibility.
The rest shape of B-Bones is actually affected by custom handles or
the default connected parent/child mechanism. Ignoring these effects
thus leads to the edit mode shape being different from the actual
rest pose.
This splits the b_bone_spline_setup function that is used to compute
the correct rest and pose shape from pose channels into two parts,
and applies the data structure independent half to edit mode.
In order to access the custom handle settings in Edit Mode, they are
moved to Bone and EditBone, while the bPoseChannel fields are downgraded
in status to a cache for performance. Also, instead of flags, introduce
an enum to specify the handle operation modes, so that new ones could
be added later.

Previously it was calling `BKE_pose_rebuild()`, such thing shall never
be called from drawing code! Hopefully this now works as expected and
that horrible hack is not needed anymore.
`BKE_pose_rebuild()` should (ideally) always trigger a rebuild of the
depsgraph, since it can add or remove posechannels.
This function now takes a Main parameter to ensure that related
depsgraphes are tagged as dirty (kept it optional, for some corner cases).
We should also probably double-check calls to that function, think in
theory it should only be called from depsgraph itself? But for now...
