* MEM_CacheLimitier - Size type to int conversion, should be safe for now (doing my best Bill Gates 640k impression)
* OpenNL CMakeLists.txt - MSVC and GCC have slightly different ways to remove definitions (DEBUG) without the compiler complaining
* BLI_math inlines - The include guard name and inline option macro name should be different. Suppressed warning about not exporting any symbols from inline math library
* BLI string / utf8 - Fixed some inconsistencies between declarations and definitions
* nodes - node_composite_util is apparently not used unless you enable the legacy compositor, so it should not be compiled in that case.
Leaving out changes to BLI_fileops for now, need to do more testing.
When this new subtypes is used, then string of property is hidden using
asterisks, e.g.: mysecretpassword -> ****************
This code was reviewed and modified by Brecht. Thanks very much:

This new subtype of string property is intended mostly for Add-on developers
writing Add-on which communicates with some server (http, sql, ftp, verse,
etc.). When this server requires user authentication and user has to type
username and password, then current API didn't allow to type 'hidden' password,
e.g. when you want to demonstrate this script, then everybody can see this
security password. Some examples of Add-on which could use this new subtype:
- On-line database of textures
- Integration of render farm
- Integration of Verse
Security Notes:
- You can copy paste hiddent string of property from text input using (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V),
but you can do this in other GUI toolkits too (this behavior it is widely used).
- Text of string property is stored in plain text, but it is widely used in other
GUI toolkits (Qt, Gtk, etc.).
Simple examples:

- spelling - turns out we had tessellation spelt wrong all over.
- use \directive for doxy (not @directive)
- remove BLI_sparsemap.h - was from bmesh merge IIRC but entire file commented and not used.
