All in all, this patch adds an Alembic importer, an Alembic exporter,
and a new CacheFile data block which, for now, wraps around an Alembic
archive. This data block is made available through a new modifier ("Mesh
Sequence Cache") as well as a new constraint ("Transform Cache") to
somewhat properly support respectively geometric and transformation data
streaming from alembic caches.
A more in-depth documentation is to be found on the wiki, as well as a
guide to compile alembic: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/
User:Kevindietrich/AlembicBasicIo.
Many thanks to everyone involved in this little project, and huge shout
out to "cgstrive" for the thorough testings with Maya, 3ds Max, Houdini
and Realflow as well as @fjuhec, @jensverwiebe and @jasperge for the
custom builds and compile fixes.

Drivers can use this to refer to the data which the driver is applied to,
useful for objects, bones, to avoid having to create a variable pointing to its self.
Accessing `bpy.app.binary_path_python does search, then swaps its getset with the string it finds.
This caused a freed pointer to be stored in bpy.app's dictionary.
Fix by using the same string for get/set access.
Support for driver variables that don't resolve to numbers, eg:
objects, bones, curves... etc.
Without this, Python expressions to access this data needed to use an absolute path from `bpy.data`,
however this is inconvenient, breaks easily (based on naming) and wouldn't set the dependencies correctly.
This commit:
* Fixes bad handling of 'stop iteration' (by adding a status flag, so that we can actually
stop in helper functions too, and jumping to a finalize label instead of raw return, to
allow propper clean up).
* Adds optional recursion into 'ID tree' - callback can also decide to exclude current id_pp
from recursion. Note that this implies 'readonly', modifying IDs while recursing is not
something we want to support!
* Changes callback signature/expected behavior: return behavior is now handled through flags,
and 'parent' ID of id_pp is also passed (since it may not always be root id anymore).

To make it easier for animators working in a multipass pose-to-pose workflow
when inserting breakdown keyframes and so forth, it is now possible to specify
the "type" of keyframe being created (i.e. the colour of the keyframe, when drawn
in the Dope Sheet).
Usage:
1) Choose the type of keyframe ("Keyframe", "Breakdown", "Extreme", etc.) from
the new dropdown located between the AutoKeying and KeyingSet widgets on the
timeline header.
2) Insert keyframes
3) Rejoyce that your newly created keyframes have now been coloured for you already
in the DopeSheet.
Todo:
* Look into a way of using the actual keyframe colours (from the theme) for the icons
of these types.
Probably did not happen yet (since nobody uses addons translations...), but there was an
nice memleak during creation of translation ghash in case a same msgid/msgctx would be
added more than once.
Also, no need to allocate (and free) a temp key each time we lookup a msgid, we can use
given const strings directly here!
Mainly it's related on a bad practice in SDL to force-define __SSE__
and __SSE2__ flags which generates quite some warnings and causes too
much noise.
There are some other warnings fixed. Should be no functional changes.
NeXyon, please check the changes in audaspace :)
BKE_main_id_tag_/BKE_main_id_flag_ were horrible naming now that we split those
into flags (for presistent one) and tags (for runtime ones).
Got rid of previous 'tag_' functions behavior (those who were dedicated shortcuts
to set/clear LIB_TAG_DOIT), so now '_tag_' functions affect tags, and '_flag_'
functions affect flags.
D1751, remove this library since its quite a specific - only supports an older version of this codec.
Also ffmpeg has added support for recent versions of the codec.
This patch supports "Image or Movie" and "Environment map" types of world texture for the viewport.
It supports:
- "View", "AngMap" and "Equirectangular" types of mapping.
- Different types of texture blending (according to BI world render).
- Same color blending as when it lacked textures (but render via glsl).

simulations.
This commits implements OpenVDB as an extra cache format in the Point
Cache system for smoke simulations. Compilation with the library is
turned off by default for now, and shall be enabled when the library is
present.

This mainly adds bpy.data.user_map() method, which goes over the whole Main database
to build a mapping (dict) {ID: {users_of_that_ID}}.
Very handy to check and debug ID usages, but could also be really valuable for py addons
creating temporary scenes, or some exporters, etc.
Note: current code in master's libquery misses some IDs (and reports some it should not,
like nodetrees), this is fixed in id-remap but still needs serious review before going to master.
This basically means that current bpy.data.user_map() **will not** report a complete and exhaustive
state of dependencies between IDs. Should work OK in most cases though.
Original work/idea comes from id-remap branch, was heavily reworked by @campbellbarton
and myself for master.
