The documentation for the bpy.app.handlers.scene_update_{pre,post}
handlers states that they're called "on updating the scenes data".
However, they're called even when the data hasn't changed. Of course
such handlers are useful, but the documentation should reflect the
current behaviour.

Regression in D1812: PyDriver variables as Objects
Taking the Python representation is nice in general
but for enums it would convert them into strings,
breaking some existing drivers.
Those functions did not use evaluation context.
Also fixed lots of unused variables warnings caused by commented out code which
needs to be ported away from DerivedMesh and to evaluation context.
Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
This is a first step towards proper depsgraph "ownership", where
we would allow scene to be in multiple states dependent on active
workspace or scene layer.
This commit introduces a basic API to get proper dependency graph
for a given scene layer. It also renames scene->depsgraph to
depsgraph_legacy, so it's easier to search0-n-replace in the future.
Initial support for Python/Manipulator integration
from 'custom-manipulators' branch.
Supports:
- Registering custom manipulators & manipulator-groups.
- Modifying RNA properties, custom values via get/set callbacks,
or invoking an operator.
- Drawing shape presets for Python defined manipulators (arrow, circle, face-maps)
Limitations:
- Only float properties supported.
- Drawing only supported via shape presets.
(we'll likely want a way to define custom geometry or draw directly).
- When to refresh, recalculate manipulators will likely need
integration with notifier system.
Development will be continued in the 2.8 branch
