It's needed especially for the menu entry "recover auto save" where you'd like to have the files sorted by date most of the time but it could be useful in other places too.
There should be no functional change in other areas, I just added the missing parameter (FILE_SORT_ALPHA).
Was a request from @sebastian_k at #BCon13, so at least one guy needs it ;)

- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
ImBuf types were getting stored as bitflags in a 32bit integer which had
already run out of space. Solved the problem by separating file type to
an ftype enum, and file specific options to foptions.
Reviewed by Campbell, thanks a lot!
We're currently only supporting save to a default format color space, which
makes it a bit tricky to prevent ImBuf from being changed.
For until when saving to a custom colorspace works we'll just reload image
if the space changes.
This commit mainly:
* Exposes PreviewImage struct in RNA, including ways for user to set images data.
* Adds a new kind of PreviewImage, using a file path and IMB_thumb to get image.
* Adds a new kind of custom icon using PreviewImage, unrelated to ID previews system.
* Adds a python API (utils.previews) to allow python scripts to access those custom previews/icons.
Note that loading image from files' thumbnails is done when needed (deferred loading), not
when defining the custom preview/icon.
WARNING: for release addons who would want to use this, please keep it to a strict minimum, really needed level.
We do not want our UI to explode under hundreds of different flashy icons!

Basically, blender adds a few metadata fields to images when
we render an image. Those metadata can now be viewed in the
image editor.
Also, made sure metadata are available when we write imbufs
to disc with "Save As". There may be more cases here that need
fixing, but this means that loading an image with metadata
will now properly preserve them in blender.
This approach gets rid of iuser->pass for good.
Also, I'm commenting out the pass increase/decrease. This was broken
since multiview. I will fix it later (before 2.75), but I didn't want to
get this patch mangled with that fix.
Thanks Sergey Sharybin for the review and feedbacks.

* Revert 776bfa64a5 and c3dad7953a (some X11 systems are doing
stupid things forcing me to do an extra check that completely breaks the
click type handling on other systems using the slightly changed
implementation from those commits - see T44278)
* Fix sample lines in Compositor+VSE
(And yes, this time I tested on both of my systems to make sure
everything is fine)

Implemented Features
====================

* Convergence Distance
* Pivot Mode
Viewport
* Cameras
* Plane
* Volume
Compositor
* View Switch Node
* Image Node Multi-View OpenEXR support
Sequencer

UV/Image Editor
* Option to see Multi-View images in Stereo-3D or its individual images
* Save/Open Multi-View (OpenEXR, Stereo3D, individual views) images
I/O
* Save/Open Multi-View (OpenEXR, Stereo3D, individual views) images
Scene Render Views
* Ability to have an arbitrary number of views in the scene
Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

It did not fully support cases when setting border from a cropped render result
and it's not totally clear how it should behave. So for now just do nothing and
inform users about this.
Make the UI API more consistent and reduce confusion with some naming.
mainly:
- API function calls
- enum values
some internal static functions have been left for now
Operators that trigger UI events (but nothing else)
were using 'CANCELLED' making it impossible to tell if an invoke
function failed, or opened a menu.
This way it is possible to define render border directly from the image editor,
which is useful for at least three things:
- If viewport is really optimized out (simplified etc) then it might be hard to
guess which exact area you're mainly interested now.
- No need to switch to the viewport to do render border tweaks, could be useful
when doing compositing.
- If one need to look at particular pixel(s) which is real handy for debugging
render engines (both Cycles and BI).

Do not generate materials/images/UVs if they are missing.
Now we spawn a panel ("Missing Data") with operators to generate the missing data and
pop a warning if user tries to paint without them.
The reason we have reverted this is that it is too easy to end up with more textures
than we wanted. It was impossible to enter texture paint without having textures added,
and code makes too many assumptions about what user may want.
Discussed during Sunday's meeting.
This might be a candidate for 2.72a but I'm not sure how other artists will take this
(and how refined and crash-free it is), better make a few iterations first.
And for interested parties...test please, don't wait until after a release to poke with such issues.
Also, add slot operator now adds a new unconnected image node in cycles. Only
used in the "Missing Data" panel. This should be a separate commit but I am squashing it into the same commit because
it relies too much on changes done here and can be reverted easily if complainstorm occurs again.
Include explicit control for texturing:
This commit introduces a painting mode option, available in
the slots panel. The default value "Material" will create slots from the
blender material, same as just merged from the paint branch.
The new option "Image", will use an explicit image field that artists can use
to select the image to paint on. This will should allow painting regardless
of the renderer used or for use in modifiers.
The issue is actually that creating a new image in texture paint mode
will set it always as a stencil image. Internally, the code checks if
the painted image is the same as the stencil and if it is, no painting
is done.
Solution is to expose a boolena to the operator for setting the image as
a stencil (could be an enum in th future for more uses)
Stencil UI is a bit weird here, will definitely redesign.
Yep, at last it's here!
There are a few minor issues remaining but development can go on in
master after discussion at blender institute.

Thanks to Sergey and Campbell for the extensive review and to the
countless artists that have given their input and reported issues during
development.
Simply add an option to render settings to save an EXR cache,
just when the render is finished. Also changed RE_ReadRenderResult() to read
cache instead of temp sample files (those are fully volatile now anyway).
Path to save cached render results is an UserPreferences setting.
Also added 'Reload render' feature to the Image Editor (so one can now re-open a blend,
and in an Image Editor hit ctrl-R to (try to) reload last render from cache).
