This commit cleans up and fixes some problems related to how the auto-snapping
behaviour in the animation editors works, resolving the issues mentioned in T39819.
1) "Nearest Frame" no longer snaps to the nearest second when time is displayed in seconds.
Instead, there is now also a "Nearest Second" option, so that either can be used
as needed instead of only when a certain time display is used.
2) A similar change has been made for "Time Step" - This is now "Frame Step" and "Second Step"
respectively.
Notes:
* Removed the unneeded getAnimEdit_DrawTime()
* Time Step/Frame Step don't work for Graph Editor yet (and seem to not have worked at all)
* NLA Editor also seems to be showing some weirdness now. Will be checked on.
* Cancelling nearest-second snapping doesn't work nicely, due to another bug with GraphEdit transforms.
View2D had some inconsistencies making it error prone in some cases.
- Inconstant checking for NULL x/y args.
Disallow NULL args for x/y destination pointers, instead add:
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_x/y
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_x/y
- '_no_clip' suffix wasn't always used for non-clipping conversion,
switch it around and use a '_clip' suffix for all funcs that clip.
- UI_view2d_text_cache_add now clips before adding cache.
- '_clip' funcs return a bool to quickly check if its in the view.
- add conversion for rectangles, since this is a common task:
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_rcti
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_rctf
Ways how it was resetting its values (backspace) was far from satisfaying. Now, e.g. when scaling, it will reset at 1 (or whatever mouse-value it was before entering numinput), instead of some ugly 0.0 value.
Implementation details:
* Values passed to applyNumInput() are stored as default ones (val_org), if it is not EDITED.
* applyNumInput() returns a boolean saying whether it actually set values or not.
* When backspace hits its ultimate step (where it clears all EDITED flags and reset all default values),
it sets a temp FAKE_EDITED flag that will be used to apply one last time values of numinput
(so that default values actually get applied!).
There are important things to note here for code using numinput:
* Values passed to applyNumInput() should be valid and are stored as default ones (val_org), if it is not EDITED.
* bool returned by applyNumInput should be used to decide whether to apply numinput-specific post-process to data.
* *Once applyNumInput has been called*, hasNumInput returns a valid value to decide whether to use numinput as drawstr source or not.
Those two steps have to be separated (so do not use a common call to hasNumInput() to do both in the same time!).
Was using wire or black in many places, this color is used for cursor,
camera guides, transform helper lines. So its possible to have a dark
background with light overlay color.
Patch D331 by Brita, with some edits.
Disable transform and mask display when there's no active clip.
It's not a matter of returning fallback dimensions if there's no
slip, it's also matter of making it so stabilization and distortion
routines are aware of clip == NULL which is really crappy.
Also almost all the operators are disabled in clip editor without
active clip already anyway.
Also tweaked header UI a bit to not display mask stuff when there's
no active clip,
During drag the H key can be used to toggle the hide flag of the selected nodes.
This makes it easier to 'attach' nodes to available links in narrow places.
Summary:
This completly changes the way modal numinput is handled. Now, edited expression is a string, which then gets unit- and py-evaluated to get a float value.
We gain many power and flexibility, but lose a few "shortcuts" like '-' to negate, or '/' to inverse (if they are really needed, we still can add them with modifiers, like e.g. ctrl-/ or so).
Features:
- units (cm, ", deg, etc.).
- basic operations from python/BKE_unit (+, *, **, etc.), and math constants and functions (pi, sin, etc.).
- you can navigate in edited value (left/right key, ctrl to move by block) and insert/delete chars, e.g. to fix a typo without having to rewrite everything.
- you can go to next/previous value with (ctrl-)TAB key.
- As before, hitting backspace after having deleted all leading chars will first reset the edited value to init state, and on second press, the whole "modal numinput" editing will be cancelled, going back to usual transform with mouse.
Notes:
- Did not touch to how values are shown in header when modal numinput is not enabled (would do that in another commit), so this is still quite inconsistent.
- Added back radian support in BKE_unit.
- Added arcminute/arcsecond to BKE_unit.
(those unit changes affect all angle UI controls, btw, so you can now enter radians or longitude/latitude values when in degrees units).

confusion, grid snap is now the default as it seems to be the most wanted and easy to use mode.
Absolute grid snapping happens in a somewhat generic function 'applyGridAbsolute', which could also be used for objects and other transforms later on. It is conceptually similar to the 'project' snapping
option, in that it calculates a delta vector for each element on top of the overall transform, which places each node on the grid.
Node transform now uses the top-left node corner for TransformData->loc. The transform center is still the average of node centers, so that scaling and rotation works nicely.
snapGrid*** functions have been renamed to snapGridIncrement*** to distinguish better between incremental and absolute grid snapping.
wrong button.
Works by adding a flag to transform operators "remove_on_cancel". This is currently only used for node transforms, the idea is that if set, the operator will remove the transformed elements when it is
cancelled. It's not possible to do that in the original NODE_OT_add_node operator, because transform is modal and there is no way of reacting to a cancel outside of the transform itself (previous attempt
used a macro operator, but that also doesn't work because subsequent operators don't get executed if the previous transform cancels).
This commit includes all the changes made for plane tracker
in tomato branch.
Movie clip editor changes:
- Artist might create a plane track out of multiple point
tracks which belongs to the same track (minimum amount of
point tracks is 4, maximum is not actually limited).
When new plane track is added, it's getting "tracked"
across all point tracks, which makes it stick to the same
plane point tracks belong to.
- After plane track was added, it need to be manually adjusted
in a way it covers feature one might to mask/replace.
General transform tools (G, R, S) or sliding corners with
a mouse could be sued for this. Plane corner which
corresponds to left bottom image corner has got X/Y axis
on it (red is for X axis, green for Y).
- Re-adjusting plane corners makes plane to be "re-tracked"
for the frames sequence between current frame and next
and previous keyframes.
- Kayframes might be removed from the plane, using Shit-X
(Marker Delete) operator. However, currently manual
re-adjustment or "re-track" trigger is needed.
Compositor changes:
- Added new node called Plane Track Deform.
- User selects which plane track to use (for this he need
to select movie clip datablock, object and track names).
- Node gets an image input, which need to be warped into
the plane.
- Node outputs:
* Input image warped into the plane.
* Plane, rasterized to a mask.
Masking changes:
- Mask points might be parented to a plane track, which
makes this point deforming in a way as if it belongs
to the tracked plane.
