Summary:
The title actually says it all, it's just possible to
have independent free handles for mask splines. Also
it's now possible to have aligned handles displayed
as independent handles.
Required changes in quite a few places, but they're
rather straightforward.
From user perspective there's one really visible change
which is removed Handle Type menu from the panel. With
asymmetric handles it's not clear which handle type to
display there. So now the only way to change handle type
is via V-key menu.
Rewrote normal evaluation function to make it deal
with new type of handles we support. Now it works in
the following way:
- Offset the original spline by maximal weight
- Calculate vector between corresponding U positions
on offset and original spline
- Normalize this vector.
Seems to be giving more adequate results and doesn't
tend to self-intersect as much as old behavior used to,
There're still some changes which needed to be done, but
which are planned for further patch:
- Support colors and handle size via themes.
- Make handles color-coded, just the same as done for
regular bezier splines in 3D viewport.
Additional changes to make roto workflow even better:
- Use circles to draw handles
- Support AA for handles
- Change click-create-drag to change curvature of the
spline instead of adjusting point position.

Bevel Factor Mapping allows to control the relation between bevel factors
(number between 0 and 1) and the rendered start and end point of a beveled
spline.
There are three options: "Resolution", "Segments", "Spline". "Resolution"
option maps bevel factors as it was done < 2.71, "Spline" and "Segments"
are new.
* "Resolution“: Map the bevel factor to the number of subdivisions of a
spline (U resolution).
* "Segments“: Map the bevel factor to the length of a segment and to the
number of subdivisions of a segment.
* "Spline": Map the bevel factor to the length of a spline.

Changed curve active point from pointer to index. Allows curve active point to be saved to file and retained between modes for free. Also some small optimisations by removing pointer look up code.
- Made active point access functions into BKE API calls.
- Fixes operators where curve de-selection resulted in unsel-active point.
- Split curve delete into 2 functions
Increase the maximum allowed amount of points in a spline from currently 32,767 (short) to 2,147,483,647 (int).
Change variables that get assigned the value from pntsu/pntsv to int type all over the codebase.
Change function parameters that previously passed the count as short to int type as well.

Previously this only worked for some datablocks relevant to rendering, now it
can be used to detect if any type of datablock was added or removed (but not
yet to detect if it was modified, we need many more depsgraph tags for that).
Most of the changes are some function parameter changes, the important parts
are the DAG_id_type_tag calls.

BKE_curve_bevel_make() is only used from object_handle_update()
friends and never called directly. This means if there's no
display list ready for the bevel object it's something wrong
happened with DAG.
In fact, this check goes back to ancient era and from tests
it appears this check is no longer needed.
EditFont's use of Curve.len was very confusing, in editmode it
represented the number of characters, in object mode the number of
bytes. add Curve.len_wchar and keep track of both.
Also don't convert the editmode text into utf8 on every keystroke.
Now this is done on exiting editmode or save - to match most other
object types.
This also fixes curves 'body_format' being reported with an invalid size.
There were several issues with how bounding box and texture space
are calculated:
- This was done at the same time as applying modifiers, meaning if
several objects are sharing the same curve datablock, bounding
box and texture space will be calculated multiple times.
Further, allocating bounding box wasn't safe for threading.
- Bounding box and texture space were evaluated after pre-tessellation
modifiers are applied. This means Curve-level data is actually
depends on object data, and it's really bad because different
objects could have different modifiers and this leads to
conflicts (curve's data depends on object evaluation order)
and doesn't behave in a predictable way.
This commit moves bounding box and texture space evaluation from
modifier stack to own utility functions, just like it's was done
for meshes.
This makes curve objects update thread-safe, but gives some
limitations as well. Namely, with such approach it's not so
clear how to preserve the same behavior of texture space:
before this change texture space and bounding box would match
beveled curve as accurate as possible.
Old behavior was nice for quick texturing -- in most cases you
didn't need to modify texture space at all. But texture space
was depending on render/preview settings which could easily lead
to situations, when final result would be far different from
preview one.
Now we're using CV points coordinates and their radius to approximate
the bounding box. This doesn't give the same exact texture space,
but it helps a lot keeping texture space in a nice predictable way.
We could make approximation smarter in the future, but fir now
added operator to match texture space to fully tessellated curve
called "Match Texture Space".

Summary:
Curve ORCO was not calculating properly for cyclic 2D curves.
- Needed to split vertices for blender internal renderer.
Otherwise it's not possible to map last face to a proper
texture location.
- Needed to tweak curve->mesh conversion to respect cyclic
flag along U direction.
- Removed check for orcodm in curve.c:add_orco_dm since
this code is only called if there're enabled constructive
modifiers on the curve.

* deselect all no longer leaves an active point
* the most recently added spline becomes the active one
* on successful duplicate/delete the active point and active spline are reset
Added surface support to recent curve split operator, completing quick hack todo
Updated nurbs separate operator to make use of new split logic, completing tools todo
Added 'Delete segment' option to surfaces and improved surface duplication, used for split/separate
- move addon refresh button into header
- uilist, use icon for sorting by name (gives more room for name, icon is used in fileselector for same purpose).
- rename orderby to sort in rna and flag names.
- simplify BKE_nurb_handle_calc_simple
That ended up in tricky code trying to mimic depsgraph
branch behavior API-wise preserving texspace and bound
box calculation compatible with previous releases.
So for now bring cu->disp back to the trunk but keep
texpsace and boundbox APIs the same as in the branch.
This keeps texpsapce and boundbox behavior fully compatible
with previous releases and still makes API the same as
for meshes.
Object update used to free object-data level bounding box to trigger
it's re-calculation in the future. Such a freeing performed from
object update isn't thread-safe because mesh could be shared between
multiple objects.
Rather than freeing bounding box, tag it's as invalid, this is safe
from threading point of view and also prevents unnecessary memory
re-allocation.
Object-level bounding box is still reallocating, but think we could
change this easily in the future as well.

Now modifier stack wouldn't modify original curve's nurbs
and will operate on a copy of nurbs.
This makes it possible to process curve object update with
shared curve datablocks from multiple threads. There's no
big overhead for creating a copy of nurbs comparing to old
behavior which was allocating original vertex array and
apply coordinates on curve after all modifier are applied.
The only remained issue with curves is curve's bounding box
and texture space. It's not thread-safe, but it wouldn't
lead to crashes -- it just could lead to either memory
leak or wrong texture coordinates due to difference in
modifiers stacks of objects which shares the same curve.
