* New armature_mat_bone_to_pose, which is just the reverse of armature_mat_pose_to_bone (currently used by armature evaluation code only, but might be used by constraints space conversion code too, see note below).
* Found another place where another (a bit erroneous) pose_to_bone code existed (apply_targetless_ik(), in transform_conversion.c, used by "auto ik" option), replaced it by a call to armature_mat_pose_to_bone.
Notes:
* All those changes leave many #if 0 commented code, I will remove those in a few weeks.
* There is at least one other place where generic armature_mat_(pose_to_bone/bone_to_pose) functions should be usable: the space conversion function of constraints (constraint_mat_convertspace(), in BKE's constraint.c), but here I have some problems (old code is also somewhat erroneous, but using new one makes old rigs using bone space constraints wrong, e.g. sintel one, and it’s just impossible to make conversion code...). So I'll wait and investigate more for this one.
WARNING: This commits modifies how translated unconnected child bones with *no Inherit Rotation option* are positionned. This means that if you open a posed/animated armature using such (corner-case) setup, you'll have to adjust manually the locations of such bones: now, disabling Inherit Rotation/Scale will no more move the bone, only affecting its rotation/scale.
Many thanks to Bassam Kurdali (slikdigit) for his advices and tests of the patch!
-----
Dev notes : the pchan_to_pose_mat() func was added to BKE_armature.h, which computes two matrices to get the pose transformations (pchan) of the bone directly in pose (i.e. armature object) space. The first matrix is the rotation/scaling parts, the second one is for location.
That new function is used by (hence deduplicating and simplifying their code):
* The pose evaluation code (where_is_pose_bone()).
* The interactive transformation code (add_pose_transdata(), in transform_conversion.c).
* The snap to cursor/grid code (through armature_loc_pose_to_bone()/armature_mat_pose_to_bone()).
inconsistent with similar functions & math notation:
mul_m4_m4m4(R, B, A) => mult_m4_m4m4(R, A, B)
mul_m3_m3m4(R, B, A) => mult_m3_m3m4(R, A, B)
For branch maintainers, it should be relatively simple to fix things manually,
it's also possible run this script after merging to do automatic replacement:

Spline IK and Auto-IK working together on the same bone chain could
crash due to the somewhat hacky way that they were sharing the same
list for the "iktree" forest. Resolved by doing what I should have
done from the beginning, and made Spline-IK save its ik chains off
into a separate list.
While this fixes the crash, it might be worth investigating outright
disabling this from working in this case, since it can be a bit
confusing to have it appear to not work.
- remove unneeded type check from convert grease pencil operator.
- correct some error prints & use __func__.
- make copy_libblock take an ID* argument rather than void*.
duplicate of BKE_curframe() which just takes two extra args.
For the few calls in the physics engine where CFRA+1 instead of CFRA
was being used, I've added a new BKE_nextframe() call, which will
calculate for CFRA+1 instead of CFRA in much the same way that
bsystem_time() would end up doing things (which means including
subframe steps).
so path manipulation functions dont run multiple times on the same path in the case of sequence strips where the one directory is used as the base for many images.
- change short -> char for flags that support it.
- add pose 'temp' pointer to use for outliner drawing (was using 'prev' and restoring which seems dodjy)
- move get_selected_defgroups & count_selected_defgroups into blenkernel
- split calc_weightpaint_vert_color() logic so its more obvious whats default and multipaint behavior

- making local object data - Curve/Mesh/MBall lost references to linked materials.
- joining a linked mesh object into a local one lost the link.
As well as these reported bugs, checked all local functions for consistency/correctness and found other cases which would also fail.
- making local metaball didn't ensure unique ID name.
- make_local_armature() was missing check for object users - main body of code would never run.
- local particles didn't set the dupli-group or textures to extern.
checked all local functions for consistency/correctness.
A change in the poll callback that Available KeyingSet used to use
restricted its use to Object-mode only, while this could also be
useful in Pose Mode (though it would only affect all channels there).
Made this use a custom poll callback now that tests for whether the
active object has an action. This does mean that if you select a bunch
of objects with animation data, but the active object doesn't have it,
then the keyingset will fail to fire, but that's been marked as a todo
in the code.
- use NULL rather then 0 where possible (makes code & function calls more readable IMHO).
- set static variables and functions (exposed some unused vars/funcs).
- use func(void) rather then func() for definitions.
Patch #25901 by Tobias Oelgarte.
Bone transformations would be converted back and forth between different
representations when changing modes, which due to numerical errors could
lead to bone transformations slowly changing as you edit the armature.
Now the editmode head, tail and roll values are stored in bones and used
directly when entering edit mode. Head and tail were already there but
now we ensure they are the exact same value, roll was not yet there, so
we have a version patch for it.
The sub version was incremented to 1 for the version patch.
- the invert flag was only being used for multi-modifier, but there is no reason not to use this in normal cases as well.
- Armature modifier RNA name 'vertex_group' was incorrectly named 'vertex_group_multi_modifier' (own fault), confusion was caused by 'invert_vertex_group_multi_modifier' which was correct.
This would have made bug #25003 very simple to find.
- Objects had their quats normalized when calculating their matrix, this is inconstant with pose bones and isn't useful for animation.
Also it wasn't normalizing the delta rotation so these would give bad rotations.
- Converting between rotation modes BKE_rotMode_change_values() assumed normal length quat. changing quat to euler rotation for eg could change the bone.
- Clear rotation and transform were not normalizing the quat when 4d loc was disabled on quat rotation, corrected and also made it so the quat scale is restored after conversion so animations curves dont jump.
There is 1 case in mat3_to_quat_is_ok() where quat_to_mat3 on an unnormalized quat is needed, for this I had to add an ugly static function quat_to_mat3_no_assert(), but overall its worthwhile IMHO to be able to find incorrect use of rotation conversion.
- pep8 script was giving an error on non utf8 scons source files.
- use PyList_SET_ITEM macro when list type is ensured.
- all mathutils types use subtypes to create new types when available.
- use defines MAT3_UNITY, MAT4_UNITY to initialize unit matrices.
Binding code had off-by-1 error, which meant that when "Even Divisions" was disabled the length of the wrong bone would get used.
This error was most noticeable when the lengths of the bones were quite different - for example, a chain with 3 bones of increasing length. Thanks to "Julius" on BlenderArtists for catching this. Cheers!
---
Also, simplified the binding code loop a bit to prevent this sort of error in future.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
