Note that the collision modifier doesn't have any use for Loop indices,
so to avoid duplicating the loop array too,
MVertTri has been added which simply stores vertex indices (runtime only).
This returns a general status (success/no-convergence/other) along with
basic statistics (min/max/average) for the error value and the number
of iterations. It allows some general estimation of the simulation
quality and detection of critical settings that could become a problem.
Better visualization and extended feedback can follow later.
code.
The implicit solver itself should remain agnostic to the specifics of
the Blender data (cloth vs. hair). This way we could avoid the bloated
data conversion chain from particles/hair to derived mesh to cloth
modifier to implicit solver data and back. Every step in this chain adds
overhead as well as rounding errors and a possibility for bugs, not to
speak of making the code horribly complicated.
The new subfolder is named "physics" since it should be the start of a
somewhat "unified" physics systems combining all the various solvers in
the same place and managing things like synchronized time steps.
