BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
It is handy when doing some roto work and it's required to blur some
mask or overaly before alpha-overing it on top of the footage.
Quite straightforward option with the only limitation that variable
size blur is not supported.

This gives around 30% of speedup for gaussian blur node.
Pretty much straightforward implementation inside the node
itself, but needed to implement some additional things:
- Aligned malloc. It's needed to load data onto SSE registers
faster. based on the aligned_malloc() from Libmv with
some additional trickery going on to support arbitrary
alignment (this magic is needed because of MemHead).
In the practice only 16bit alignment is supported because
of the lack of aligned malloc with arbitrary alignment
for OSX. Not a bit deal for now because we need 16 bytes
alignment at this moment only. Could be tweaked further
later.
- Memory buffers in compositor are now aligned to 16 bytes.
Should be harmless for non-SSE cases too. just mentioning.

Many parts of the compositor are unnecessarily complicated. This patch
aims at reducing the complexity of writing nodes and making the code
more transparent.
== Separating Nodes and Operations ==
Currently these are both mixed in the same graph, even though they have
very different purposes and are used at distinct stages in the
compositing process. The patch introduces dedicated graph classes for
nodes and for operations.
This removes the need for a lot of special case checks (isOperation etc.)
and explicit type casts. It simplifies the code since it becomes clear
at every stage what type of node we are dealing with. The compiler can
use static typing to avoid common bugs from mixing up these types and
fewer runtime sanity checks are needed.
== Simplified Node Conversion ==
Converting nodes to operations was previously based on "relinking", i.e.
nodes would start with by mirroring links in the Blender DNA node trees,
then add operations and redirect these links to them. This was very hard
to follow in many cases and required a lot of attention to avoid invalid
states.
Now there is a helper class called the NodeConverter, which is passed to
nodes and implements a much simpler API for this process. Nodes can add
operations and explicit connections as before, but defining "external"
links to the inputs/outputs of the original node now uses mapping
instead of directly modifying link data. Input data (node graph) and
result (operations graph) are cleanly separated.
== Removed Redundant Data Structures ==
A few redundant data structures have been removed, notably the
SocketConnection. These are only needed temporarily during graph
construction. For executing the compositor operations it is perfectly
sufficient to store only the direct input link pointers. A common
pointer indirection is avoided this way (which might also give a little
performance improvement).
== Avoid virtual recursive functions ==
Recursive virtual functions are evil. They are very hard to follow
during debugging. At least in the parts this patch is concerned with
these functions have been replaced by a non-virtual recursive core
function (which might then call virtual non-recursive functions if
needed). See for example NodeOperationBuilder::group_operations.
The blur operations were clamping the filter size to 1, which prevents
no-op blur nodes. Further any value < 1 would also be ignored and in
many combinations the filter scale setting ("Size") would only work in
integer steps.
Now most blur settings will work with smooth Size value scaling as well,
meaning you can choose a reasonably large filter size (e.g. 10) and then
use the Size factor to scale the actual blur radius smoothly.
Note that non-integer filter sizes also depend on the filter type
selected in the Blur node, e.g. "Flat" filtering will still ignore
smooth filter sizes. Gaussian filters work best for this purpose.
Distinguish the 3 different methods for acquiring pixel color values (executePixel, executePixelSampled, executePixelFiltered).
This makes it easier to keep track of the different sampling methods (and works nicer with IDEs that do code parsing).
