Was a bit confusing to have transparent and translucent depth
exposed but no diffuse or glossy.

This option allows to create a smoother transition between Bricks and Mortar - 0 applies no smoothing, and 1 smooths across the whole mortar width.
Mainly useful for displacement textures.
The new default value for the smoothing option is 0.1 to give some smoothing that helps with antialiasing, but existing nodes are loaded with smoothing 0 to preserve compatibility.

This patch is another step to achieve BI and it's Viewport consistency for cubemap textures.

This commit changes a lot of how IDs are handled internally, especially the unlinking/freeing
processes. So far, this was very fuzy, to summarize cleanly deleting or replacing a datablock
was pretty much impossible, except for a few special cases.
Also, unlinking was handled by each datatype, in a rather messy and prone-to-errors way (quite
a few ID usages were missed or wrongly handled that way).
One of the main goal of id-remap branch was to cleanup this, and fatorize ID links handling
by using library_query utils to allow generic handling of those, which is now the case
(now, generic ID links handling is only "knwon" from readfile.c and library_query.c).
This commit also adds backends to allow live replacement and deletion of datablocks in Blender
(so-called 'remapping' process, where we replace all usages of a given ID pointer by a new one,
or NULL one in case of unlinking).
This will allow nice new features, like ability to easily reload or relocate libraries, real immediate
deletion of datablocks in blender, replacement of one datablock by another, etc.
Some of those are for next commits.
A word of warning: this commit is highly risky, because it affects potentially a lot in Blender core.
Though it was tested rather deeply, being totally impossible to check all possible ID usage cases,
it's likely there are some remaining issues and bugs in new code... Please report them! ;)

At the moment light shading in Blender is produced in viewspace. Apparently, that's why
shader nodes work with normals in camera space. But it is not convenient for artists.
The more convenient approach is implemented in Cycles where normals are represented in world space.
Blend4Web Team designed the engine keeping in mind shader parameters readability,
so normals are interpreted in world space as well. And now our users have to use some tweaks, like
empty node group with the name "Replace", which is replacing one input by another on the engine side
(replacing working configuration in Blender Viewport by the configuration that has the same behavior in the engine).
This patch adds the ability to switch to world space for normals and lamp vector in BI and Viewport.
This patch is very important to us and we crave to see this patch in Blender 2.7 because
it will significantly simplify Blend4Web material creation workflow.

The title says it all actually.
Added special custom data type, because we don't know in advance
whether we're referencing UV or Color layer. Also made it so vertex
attributes are normalized.
TODO: Border render in viewport ignores the normalization of the
attribute array for some reason, will be looked into still.

This commit implements Bump node in GLSL, making it possible to
see previews of bump mapping in viewport without need to render.
Nothing really fancy going on here, just uses internal dFdx/dFdy
functions to get derivatives of the surface and map itself.
Quite basic but seems to behave correct-ish.
This commit also makes Displacement material output to affect
viewport shading by re-linking unconnected Normal input to a
node which was used for displacement output (via Bump node).
Intention of all this is to make it really easy to do bump map
painting with Cycles as an active render engine.

It gives some slight differences on the plane corners, but can't
really figure out source of the issue here yet.
It's still better than fully white texture for the previews anyway.
At this point we should perhaps ifdef chunks of the code in order
to have faster GLSL compilation and probably even faster compiled
code. Will look into this shortly.
Not very efficient solution -- it'll update mapping node on init ntree exec and will
not work for viewport GLSL shading perhaps, but it's as good as it could be within
current dependency graph.
The issue here is that manual edit of values will cause cached matrix re-evaluation.
but using animation does not use rna update callbacks hence no matrix update was
happening.
Normal Map node support for GLSL mode and the internal render (multiple tangents support).
The Normal Map node is a useful node which is present in the Cycles render.
It makes it possible to use normal mapping without additional material node in a node tree.
This patch implements Normal Map node for GLSL mode and the internal render.
Previously only the active UV layer was used to calculate tangents.
The improved Hosek / Wilkie model was added during my GSoC 2013 and the default since then.
The older model was kinda kept for compatibility, but after more than 2 years it's time to remove it.
The Hosek / Wilkie model is more realistic anyway, and people who really want a day / night transition can mix the Sky Shader with another one (e.g. color) and fade between the two.
This patch implements Mirror influence for environment textures. Approach matches the one from BI.

World space and view space normals were mixed up, we should only convert from
world to view space if a custom normal is connected, otherwise it is already in
view space.
The issue was happening when having unconnected point density which
will cache data but will not free it because there's no actual call
to the actual sampling.
Now the idea is to make sure cache is zeroed on file load and undo
and then caching via RNA will free the data if any exists. This could
leave us with a single copy of cache in the node if it's not used,
but it's quite small amount of memory and it's not leaking.
The Vector Transform node is a useful node which is present in the Cycles renderer.
