This expose the capability of handling offscreen drawing. The initial
support lays the barebones for addons to work with framebuffer objects
and implement 3d viewport offscreen drawing. This can be used by script
writers to make fisheye lens preview, head mounted display support, ...

- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
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!
For more info, see also the release notes of Blender 2.75 (http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.75/Addons)
and the example/templates featured with Blender.

Adds bpy.app.sdl to expose SDL version information.
When SDL is not available on a Linux system, certain Blender features
are silently disabled (like joystick support in the BGE). This change
is the first step towards making it more obvious why something isn't
working.
SDL information is exposed to Python via bpy.app.sdl, in the same way
as OCIO and OIIO information is exposed.
Generated system-info.txt contains SDL loading method (linked or
dynamically loaded by Blender) and SDL version number.

Exposes all supported unit systems & types, and to_value()/to_string() functions.
Reviewed and enhanced by CampbellBarton, many thanks!

Summary:
Version of those libraries might be useful to know.
- OIIO and OCIO is exposed via bpy.app.oiio and bpy.app.ocio.
There're "supported", "version" and "version_string" defined
in those modules.
- OSL is available as _cycles.osl_version and _cycles.osl_version_string.

We now have openimageio building when cycles builds or when it's
manually set to build.
(I reverted the _IMAGE_ in the define name because I think the closer
the cmake flags match the defines in the software the better, and there
is no reason to rename all the existent WITH_OPENIMAGEIO references in
CMakeLists.txt - which would be the alternative)
We now support the combined layer of Photoshop files (stored as layer 0
in the file). This way users can keep their files as multilayer PSD and
Blender always handle them as flat images.
For perfect alpha this requires an OpenImageIO update:
342cc2633f
Photoshop sample files:
https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio-images
Brecht has some pending fixes to push for OIIO as well, so we may as
well wait to update our libraries.
What works:
===========
* 8bit images (with or without alpha)
* 16bits images (alpha discarded)
* Photoshop files saved with 'Maximum Compatibility'
* Cycles, Blender internal, BGE (and player)
Known limitations
(due to OIIO dependency):
=========================
* Images with less than 4 channels show a wrong thumbnail (bug may be in OIIO)
* Packed images are not supported
* We do not write PSD files.
Note: old Blenders have support for PSD via Quicktime library. But due
to license issues this was discontinued.
Many thanks for Brecht van Lommel for reviewing the patch, suggesting
multiple improvements and to help solving the alpha issue.
This commit adds:
* A new bpy.app.translations module giving some info about locales/translation stuff (current active locale, all locales currently known by blender, all translation contexts currently defined, etc.).
* The ability for addons to feature translations, using the (un)register functions of above module.
* Also cleans up "translate py string when storing into RNA prop" by removing "PROP_TRANSLATE" string's subtype, and adding a PROP_STRING_PY_TRANSLATE flag instead (this way it is no more exposed to python...).
Addon translations work with py dictionaries: each addon features a dict {lang: {(context, message): translation, ...}, ...}, which is registered when the addon is enabled (and unregistered when disabled).
Then, when a key (context, message) is not found in regular mo catalog, a cache dict for current locale is built from all registered addon translations, and key is searched in it.
Note: currently addons writers have to do all the work by hand, will add something (probably extend "edit translation" addon) to automate messages extraction from addons soon(ish)! To get a look to expected behavior from addons, have a look at render_copy_settings/__init__.py and render_copy_settings/translations.py (rather stupid example currently, but...). Once we have a complete process, I'll also update relevant wiki pages.
- bpy.path.extensions_image
- bpy.path.extensions_movie
- bpy.path.extensions_audio
eg:
if os.path.splitext(filename)[1].lower() in bpy.path.extensions_image:
... we have an image ...
- move object_iterators.c --> view3d_iterators. (ED_object.h had to include ED_view3d.h which isn't so nice)
- move projection functions from view3d_view.c --> view3d_project.c (view3d_view was becoming a mishmash of utility functions and operators).
- some some cmake includes as system-includes.

Also addressed code inconsistency due to changes in the trunk revision 50628 (color
management with OCIO) and 50806 (UV project material). OCIO-related changes are marked
OCIO_TODO as in some other files modified in revision 50628.
The rendering device is now set in User Preferences > System, where you can
choose between OpenCL/CUDA and devices. Per scene you can then still choose
to use CPU or GPU rendering.
Load balancing still needs to be improved, now it just splits the entire
render in two, that will be done in a separate commit.

Additional changes:
* source/blender/makesrna/intern/rna_linestyle.c: Fixed white
space issues that generated a number of compiler errors. The
problem was that two string literals for enumerating MA_RAMP_SOFT
and MA_RAMP_LINEAR contained a space. The string literals are
supposed to represent a valid C identifier because of their use
for automatic code generation.
* Stroke transparency has been temporarily disabled due to a
functionality conflict with some merged changes. A fix of this
issue is planned.
Merging the node changes required a lot of conflict resolution, fixed the
issues I could find but if you want stability you might want to wait a bit
before updating.

shader = gpu.export_shader(scene,material)
Returns the GLSL shader that blender generates to produce the visual effect
of material in scene for the purpose of reusing the shader in an external engine.
This function is meant to be used in a material exporter so that the GLSL
shader can be exported entirely. The return value is a dictionary containing the
shader source code and all associated data.
The full documentation is under sphinx.
Warning: there has been an API between the patch and this commit:
uniform['lamp'] and uniform['image'] now return python reference to
ID block instead of ID name as before. The X3D exporter that uses this
function must be adapted.
* add some (disabled) test code for using OpenImageIO in imbuf
* link cycles, openimageio and boost into blender instead of a shared library
* some cmakefile changes to simplify the code and follow conventions better
* this may solve running cycles problems on windows XP, or give a different
and hopefully more useful error message
Note for VS2008 plus CMake users:
I had to remove OpenEXR debug libs from the "blender" project properties >
Linker > Additional Dependencies. Otherwise I got a number of linker errors
concerning duplicated symbols between libcmt.lib and libcmtd.lib.
