Custom profiles in bevel allows the profile curve to be controlled by
manually placed control points. Orientation is regularized along
groups of edges, and the 'pipe case' is updated. This commit includes
many updates to comments and changed variable names as well.
A 'cutoff' vertex mesh method is added to bevel in addition to the
existing grid fill option for replacing vertices.
The UI of the bevel modifier and tool are updated and unified.
Also, a 'CurveProfile' widget is added to BKE for defining the profile
in the interface, which may be useful in other situations.
Many thanks to Howard, my mentor for this GSoC project.

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This is often invalid, outdated or misleading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.
Will document the new options in release notes, then in manual.
Still a bit of work to do on the bulging shape that appears
on cube corners if using arc inner miters, but will do that later.
Also need to do something smarter in clamp overlap.
Commit 86abddc9, caused an error when the face-region included boundary edges.
Since removing the faces first, caused the edges along the boundaries to be removed.
Add support for deleting faces and internal edges, that keeps boundaries.
note, this is for C++ code which expects a cast, (will be added later)
also add a macro for nop-expressions (EXPR_NOP),
when we never want an expression to be evaluated, but it should still be valid.
Selection is specifically so you can continuously fill in holes by tapping the Fkey.
Similar functionality to the F2 addon, however the mouse location isn't used.
- BMO_slot_copy now only copies compatible elements.
other minor changes
- don't use text.format(...), convention for UI scripts is C style string formatting.
- rename bmo_edgenet_prepare --> bmo_edgenet_prepare_exec
- float/double warning in bevel.
add type checking for element buffers, there was nothing stopping python from passing any element type into an argument when in some cases only verts/edges/faces were expected.
now operator args define which types they support.
* The symmetrize operation makes the input mesh elements symmetrical,
but unlike mirroring it only copies in one direction. The edges and
faces that cross the plane of symmetry are split as needed to
enforce symmetry.
* The symmetrize operator can be controlled with the "direction"
property, which combines the choices of symmetry plane and
positive-negative/negative-positive. The enum for this is
BMO_SymmDirection.
* Added menu items in the top-level Mesh menu and the WKEY specials
menu.
