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!

Many thanks to Sergey, for practically giving the solution!
Note that it may also fix T44345, depends whether there are other missing
protections/locks or not...
We can calculate tangents analytically for bezier curves, so just make
them awesome. New code uses forward differencing calculation for
efficiency just like curve calculation.

Since it was not ensuring dest has valid mdisp data matching new multires modifier subdiv level...
Also, fixed a bug in `multires_subdivide()`, which would crash when trying to
increase from level 0 (aka no subdiv) to > 1 (wrong check, trying to interpolate
when it should not). And added a few sanity checks.
Looks like the previous commit here is really correct and fixes cases of
distortion that were in mirror-subsurf combination since blender 2.5.
This may cause some changed files in which case we will be adding an
option, but it is expected this will only happen with low res models,
and hand painted textures, and the better distortion here compensates
for that enough to consider not adding a compatibility option yet.
Leaving the facemap winding argument as is just in case we do consider
to add the option.
This way it is possible to have viewport simplification bumped all the way up,
making viewport really responsive but still have final render to use highest
subdivision possible.

transform.
IMB_makeSingleUser makes a copy and destroys metadata. I am not sure if
this is the safest way to make a single user ImBuf (setting the refcount
to 0 is simpler and there's less, but no zero, risk of dangling
pointers) but I will leave this as is for now in case there is an actual
need for a copy here. The alternative approach should be tested at some
point.
Assumed the `reference` pointer is an ID, currently true, but may not always be.
Add a callback specifically for this purpose since cleaning up notifiers and space-types are different operations.
"Unexisting" particles must be freed after the unexist flag has been set,
which was no longer the case after 78c491e62a.

This commit fixes several issues:
* island_store->items_to_islands_num was reset each time we added a new island, this is stupid! Harmless too, though, afaikt.
* partial verts bvhtree (with several islands) was hugely over-allocated...
* we would 'leak' in neighbor islands when geometry itself was contiguous.
* best_nor_dot was used incorrectly, leading to smaller weights for better matching normal!
All those fixes are related to T44522 (through personal communications with reporter).
Originally I wanted to get rid of RenderResult->rect* entirely, but it's
convenient to have for temporary structs.
This patch makes sure they are used only when really needed, which
should help clearing the code out.
(they are needed when using RE_AcquireResultImage() - which produces a
RenderResult with no RenderView)

would fail on coplanar faces (or smooth verts).
Loop remapping is really a tricky topic... For now, we enhance a bit more
our Frankenfunc by using distance between dest and source polygons as
fallback in case we have too much similar normals...
Probably not a perfect solution, but should be robust enough I hope.
One core question remains open though: do we want to stick to 'use only seams
to detect UV islands'? This makes things much simpler, but will obviously fail
in case of actual islands without matching seams. :/
Caused by own commit that changed island detection code. In the case of
modifiers we don't want to take winding information into account, but
left the code since there are use cases (like painting) which could use
this.
