a2cc29d221 RNA
* Rename cname to identifier.
* Rename PropertyEnumItem to EnumPropertyItem.
* Wrapped min/max/step/precision, pointer type for RNA.
* Draw FLT_MAX a bit better in buttons.

a2175968a7 RNA
* Added RNA list viewer. This is currently drawn in the outliner
  window, the UI is limited but it is just intended to test RNA
  at the moment.
* Added UI names for currently wrapped properties.
* Made iterating collections a bit more convenient.

4a8e571e8d RNA
* Added accessor functions for structs and properties instead of
  direct access, in preparation of wrapping ID properties.
* Added more error prints for wrong defines.
* Wrap RNA data structures with RNA.
* Disable dependency code for now to avoid confusion.

3bb5fc9c7d * RNA: utility function to retrieve strings. It will use a fixed
size buffer if it's big enough, and otherwise allocate memory.
* Added BLI_dynstr_appendf() to construct strings easily in printf
  style, this should make it easier to construct menu strings for
  example.

7e8ba5c84d RNA
* Added more error prints for wrong definitions, for cases that
  would laters cause problems compiling or crash at runtime, and
  also made messages more clear.
* Added some skeleton code for main/ID/mesh/vertex types for testing.
* Added support for automatic arrays as collections using SDNA.

* Changed how pointers to data work. Now they are always wrapped
  in a PointerRNA struct, which contains the data pointer and type,
  and also the data pointer and type of the ID datablock that this
  belongs to, since for example a vertex on it's own may not have
  enough information for some operations, it also needs the mesh.

* Added some code for defining dependencies with RNA, and looking up
  data with paths like: scenes[0].objects["Cube"].data.verts[7].co.
  Note sure either will end up being used, this is experimental.

7f24dbe5fc RNA / Data API
This is the first code for the Data API, also known as RNA system in the
2.5 Branch. It does not include a user interface, and only wraps some
Scene properties for testing. It is integrated with Scons and Makefiles,
and compiles a 'makesrna' program that generates an RNA.c file.

The changes are quite local, basically adding a makesrna module which
works similar to the makesdna module. The one external change is in
moving genfile.c from blenloader to the makesdna module, so that it can
be reused by the RNA code. This also meant changing the DNA makefiles.
It seems to be doing dependencies correct still in my tests, but if
there is an issue with the DNA not being rebuilt this commit might be
the one causing it. Also it seems for scons the makesdna and makesrna
modules are compiling without warnings. Not a new issue but this should
be fixed.

The RNA code supports all types as defined in the Data API design, so
in that sense it is fairly complete and I hope that aspect will not
have to change much. Some obviously missing parts are context related
code, notify() functions for updates and user defined / ID properties.
