The idea of pole merge is to fade interocular distance after a certain
altitude to zero when altitude goes closer to a pole. This should prevent
annoyances looking up in the sky or down to the bottom.
Works for both panorama and perspective cameras when Spherical Stereo
is enabled.

This commit/patch/branch brings a bunch of powerful new options for B-Bones and
for working with B-Bones, making it easier for animators to create their own
rigs, using fewer bones (which also means hopefully lighter + faster rigs ;)
This functionality was first demoed by Daniel at BConf15
Some highlights from this patch include:
* You can now directly control the shape of B-Bones using a series of properties
instead of being restricted to trying to indirectly control them through the
neighbouring bones. See the "Bendy Bones" panel...
* B-Bones can be shaped in EditMode to define a "curved rest pose" for the bone.
This is useful for things like eyebrows and mouths/eyelids
* You can now make B-Bones use custom bones as their reference bone handles,
instead of only using the parent/child bones. To do so, enable the
"Use Custom Reference Handles" toggle. If none are specified, then the BBone will
only use the Bendy Bone properties.
* Constraints Head/Tail option can now slide along the B-Bone shape, instead of
just linearly interpolating between the endpoints of the bone.

This commit adds some of the initial support for a properties region in the
Action Editor. There are currently no panels to display, as there is still
a lot of work required to port over the required internal architecture to
support the panels seen in the Graph Editor.
After some test, a new iteration parameter has been added in order to
apply repetitive smoothing to the stroke. By default 1 iteration is applied,
but can used any number between 1 and 3.
The repetition uses different levels of intensity from 100% of the defined smooth
factor for the first loop, 50% for the second and 25% for the third. We use in each
loop a smaller value in order to avoid deform too much the stroke.
- Access with Shift-LMB or from the 'Create' toolbar tab.
- Uses curve fitting for bezier curves, with error and corner angle options.
- Optional tablet pressure to curve radius mapping.
- Depth can use the cursor or optionally draw onto the surface,
for the entire stroke or using the stroke start.
- Stroke plane can optionally be perpendicular to, or aligned to the surface normal.
- Optional radius tapering and for start/end points.
- Supports operator redo and calling from Python.
Unexpectedly found out what was going wrong here. If a file was saved with a filebrowser open, we searched for the channel region in the wrong list (see 'ListBase *regionbase = (sl == sa->spacedata.first) ? &sa->regionbase : &sl->regionbase;').
Minor annoyance is that I had to move the loookup to the 2.77.1 version patch now.
Steps to reproduce were:
* Open default video editing layout
* Drag down or click '+' icon in upper right corner of sequencer view
* A preview region appears, even though the view type is not set to sequencer-preview split mode
Another bug that has been there since ages :/ Reported by @Blendify via IRC, thanks!
The combined pass is built with the contributions the user finds fit.
It is useful for lightmap baking, as well as non-view dependent effects
baking.
The manual will be updated once we get closer to the 2.77 release.

This is purely internal sanitizing/cleanup, no change in behavior is expected at all.
This change was also needed because we were getting short on ID flags, and
future enhancement of 'user_one' ID behavior requires two new ones.
id->flag remains for persistent data (fakeuser only, so far!), this also allows us
100% backward & forward compatibility.
New id->tag is used for most flags. Though written in .blend files, its content
is cleared at read time.
Note that .blend file version was bumped, so that we can clear runtimeflags from
old .blends, important in case we add new persistent flags in future.
Also, behavior of tags (either status ones, or whether they need to be cleared before/after use)
has been added as comments to their declaration.

Normally we don't allow adding new theme options if we can avoid it, but this is a legit exception since all other strips are themeable.
Default color for text strip is now yellow-ish. Not nice but there are also not many other colors left.
Shutter curve now can be controlled using curve mapping widget in the motion
blur panel in Render buttons. Only mapping from 0..1 by x axis are allowed,
Y values will be normalized to fill in 0..1 space as well automatically.
Y values of 0 means fully closed shutter, Y values of 1 means fully opened
shutter.
Default mapping is set to old behavior when shutter opens and closes instantly.
This shutter mapping curve could easily be used by any other render engine by
accessing scene.render.motion_blur_shutter_curve.

- RegionView3D.view RV3D_VIEW_PERSPORTHO
only ever set on initialization, never checked for.
- Lamp.type LA_YF_PHOTON
from old 2.4x yafray files.
Also iniitalize movie-clip + grease-pencil theme colors.
- Custom scale:
Avoids having multiple custom-shapes at different sizes.
- Option not to use bones length:
So changes in edit-mode don't resize the custom-shape.
This was introduced in the fix for T44336 .
The code is now what it should have been in the first place at the time
of multiview commit.
ImageUser->passtype is being removed in favour of bringing
ImageUser->pass back.

Don't force re-distribution of cached particle systems, this doesn't
cause actual evaluation of particles and there was a reason why particles
are baked actually..
Deprecate wrap (BRUSH_TORUS) option, we now have paint flags for tiling
and we can reuse those. Also allows seperate tiling in X/Y
direction for 2D painting now.
Only one tiling is allowed for now.
Options can be found in new "Tiling" panel under the tools tab.
For version patching, we just turn off brush wrapping,
to allow reuse of the flag in the future.
New option is paint mode wide instead of per brush so
a brush having the old wrap option will not enable it
for the whole mode in the version patch.
Add slider to adjust the influence of weights relative to geometry distortion.
This allows subtle influences to be applied - without drastic changes in behavior.
This way it is possible to have viewport simplification bumped all the way up,
making viewport really responsive but still have final render to use highest
subdivision possible.

We can now scale from 32px up to 256px (default has been upgraded to 128px).
Thumbnails are now generated as 'large', i.e. 256px.
Previews are scaled up if necessary, unlike icons (for folders or files without preview images).
Note that .blend thumbnails themselves remain in 128px for now (they are embeded in .blend files,
not quite sure we want to make them four times bigger...).
Patch by DMS (Yaron Dames), with final edits by myself.

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.

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
