This one was nasty, issue comes with temp/nofree CD layers that get 'removed on the fly'
from saved mesh CDData. Since mesh struct itself was written before that cleanup, it would
still have the old, invalid number of layers. That would lead to a buffer overflow when
loading data later (odd you had to do this twice (i.e. have 2 'ghost' layers) to get the crash).
New code prevents that by always making a copy of the mesh (we were already doing that mostly
anyway, since we were saving without tessfaces), copying (by ref of course) in it cddata,
and then writing mesh struct. Makes code a bit more verbose, but... it works!
There should be no functional changes visible from this change, but this commit
should make it easier to code tools which need to check on tweeakmode status,
by making it easier to figure out which NLA Track contains the strip which
owned the action being edited. (The strip is already saved, so this commit just
adds the track alongside it).
For now there is no version patch for this. The worst that happens is that an
extra refresh is needed in the NLA editor to get these to show up.
The issue was caused by phase being limited from 0 to 1, which gave only
0..M_PI distribution which is not good enough for good randomness.
Now the phase is being randomized across full 0..2*M_PI range.
stupidity casting from Scene to Editing in RNA)
Move versioning for proxy storage to multiview version check (not really
correct but it was orphaned before and it doesn't hurt either).

Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

340b76b42c
Reported by formerly Old_Demon on blenderartists.
Apparently this caused old files to lose their links to material sockets
(noob own mistake from inexperience with node system).
This should either be included in release with version checking being
set to version 2.73 and subversion 10, without tweaking the
BKE_blender.h file
OR
340b76b42c should be reverted for this
release.
Thanks to Lukas for checking this out.
This change introduces a new hysteresis parameter that it will be added
or subtracted to/from the LOD distance to avoid popping when a LOD
object moves close to the LOD transition continuously.
Then, we have the following:
- a new LOD Hysteresis setting per scene (default 10%) which is located
in Scene context --> Level of Detail panel. This scene parameter also
will active/deactive the scene hysteresis.
- and a new LOD Hysteresis setting per object (default 10%) which is
located in Object context --> Levels of Detail panel. The LOD hysteresis
setting per object (if active) will overwrite the hysteresis setting per
scene value.
For the new blends: the hysteresis setting per scene would be active by
default and the per object would be inactive by default.
For the old blends: both hysteresis settings (per scene and per object)
would be inactive by default. A quick way to take advantage of this
feature for old blends would be to activate the hysteresis parameter in
the scene context -> Level of Detail panel

This patch avoids looping over bhead's linked list when looking up values by name.
Used during appaned and library loading.
Gives noticeable overall speedup loading files that used libraries. (nearly 2x on some Mango files)
screen.
Apparently the screen on the given file did not have a scene attached.
Not sure how this is possible exactly, but for now just guard against it
at load time by assigning default scene in that case.
New Lock Z velocity parameter was added. This parameter avoid the micro-jumping.
By default it is actived except when you load an old file that it is deactived to keep former behaviour.
Additionally it was solved another issue related with the acceleration: That is the acceleration value was not taked into account and we had always the maximum linear velocity from the beginning of movement. Now the acceleration is taken into account until we reach the maximum velocity.
When you load an old file, the acceleration value is set to the maximum range (1000.f). This way we simulate a maximum velocity constant from the beginning of movement (former behaviour).

This reverts the change made in 8872cba7e9
which was contributing to actions being lost in some cases [1], even when
they were assigned to those actuaters, which needed them to be able to
function. Now there's one less case where users are needed but were missing :)
Note that this still doesn't solve the core issue where nothing is responsible
for associating actions created for a particular datablock (and not currently
being used in its active action slot, or in the NLA stack) with that datablock.
That issue is the cause of most action disappearances as well as for other problems
(such as renaming bones being unable to fix unreferenced/unused actions) where there
are diifferences between users' mental models and the data model. Proper fixes are
coming soon (restoring fake users here isn't a proper fix, as it only masks the
fundamental mismatch/problem here).

Originally the files are coming from ancient early-2.4x epoch, but in
theory such setups might have been re-saved multiple times already with
more recent blender versions.
So the verisoning code is applied on all the files, including very
recent ones.
Bumped subversion, because this check si not really cheap.
This commit introduces a few ready made effects for the 3D viewport
and OpenGL rendering.
Included effects are Depth of Field, accessible from camera view
and screen space ambient occlusion. Those effects can be turned on and
tweaked from the shading panel in the 3D viewport.
Off screen rendering will use the settings of the current camera.

structs to paint struct (might be useful for vertex paint too in the
future)
Cavity masking now has a curve control. The control will set the amount
of masking for positive cavity ("pointness") or negative cavity
("cavity") with x axis being the amount of cavity and 0.0 = full cavity,
1.0 = full pointness, 0.5 = no cavity and the y axis being the amount of
alpha.
Bookmarks are now editable (i.e. you can rename them, and reorder them).
They are also listed in regular UILists, so you can filter/sort them as usual too.
Also, FileBrowser 'T' side area is changed to something similar to 3DView one,
in this case because we need op panel to remain at the bottom, and later because
we'll more than likely need tabs here!
Thanks to Campbell and Sergey for reviews.

Using different scenes with 2+ windows broke entirely using undo.
Now keep track of the current windows scene in each undo-file,
and ensure the undo-scene is on a visible window when undo is executed,
switching the scene only when its not in a visible window.
This is the core code for it, tools (datatransfer and modifier) will come in next commits).
RNA api is already there, though.
See the code for details, but basically, we define, for each 'smooth fan'
(which is a set of adjacent loops around a same vertex that are smooth, i.e. have a single same normal),
a 'loop normal space' (or lnor space), using auto-computed normal and relevant edges, and store
custom normal as two angular factors inside that space. This allows to have custom normals
'following' deformations of the geometry, and to only save two shorts per loop in new clnor CDLayer.
Normal manipulation (editing, mixing, interpolating, etc.) shall always happen with plain 3D vectors normals,
and be converted back into storage format at the end.
Clnor computation has also been threaded (at least for Mesh case, not for BMesh), since the process can
be rather heavy with high poly meshes.
Also, bumping subversion, and fix mess in 2.70 versioning code.
Quite striaghtforward change, and in theory we can even try supporting motion
blur for the corner pin node (which is tricky because coordinates actually
coming from sockets, but with some black magic should be doable).
