It also fixes another issue (crash) related to symmetric editing.
Quite involved, we (try to!) fix complete broken logic of parts of particle code, which would use poly index
as tessface one (or vice-versa). Issue most probably goes back to BMesh integration time...
This patch mostly fixes particle editing mode:
- Adding/removing particles when using generative modifiers (like subsurf) should now work.
- Adding/removing particles with a non-tessellated mesh (i.e. one having ngons) should also mostly work.
- X-axis-mirror-editing particles over ngons does not really work, not sure why currently.
- All this in both 'modes' (with or without using modifier stack for particles).
Tech side:
- Store a deformed-only DM in particle modifier data.
- Rename existing DM to make it clear it's a final one.
- Use deformed-only DM's tessface2poly mapping to 'solve' poly/tessface mismatches.
- Make (part of) mirror-editing code able to use a DM instead of raw mesh, so that we can mirror based on final DM
when editing particles using modifier stack (mandatory, since there is no way currently to find orig tessface
from an final DM tessface index).
Note that this patch is not really nice and clean (current particles are beyond hope on this side anyway),
it's more like some urgency bandage. Whole crap needs complete rewrite anyway,
BMesh's polygons make it really hard to work with current system (and looptri would not help much here).
Also, did not test everything possibly affected by those changes, so it needs some users' testing & validation too.

While SCons building system was serving us really good for ages it's no longer
having much attention by the developers and started to become quite a difficult
task to maintain.
What's even worse -- there started to be quite serious divergence between SCons
and CMake which was only accumulating over the releases now. The fact that none
of the active developers are really using SCons and that our main studio is also
using CMake spotting bugs in the SCons builds became quite a difficult task and
we aren't always spotting them in time.
Meanwhile CMake became really mature building system which is available on every
platform we support and arguably it's also easier and more robust to use.
This commit includes:
- Removal of actual SCons building system
- Removal of SCons git submodule
- Removal of documentation which is stored in the sources and covers SCons
- Tweaks to the buildbot master to stop using SCons submodule
(this change requires deploying to the server)
- Tweaks to the install dependencies script to skip installing or mentioning
SCons building system
- Tweaks to various helper scripts to avoid mention of SCons folders/files
as well

We have callbacks for that, they also do some checks and help ensure things are done
correctly. Only place where this is assumed not true is blenloader (since here we
may affect refcount of library IDs as well...).
It's needed especially for the menu entry "recover auto save" where you'd like to have the files sorted by date most of the time but it could be useful in other places too.
There should be no functional change in other areas, I just added the missing parameter (FILE_SORT_ALPHA).
Was a request from @sebastian_k at #BCon13, so at least one guy needs it ;)

- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
The issue was caused by the following construction:
def = env['SOMETHING']
defs.append('SOMETHING_MORE')
Since first assignment was actually referencing environment option it was totally
polluted hawing weird and wonderful side effects on all other areas of Blender.
The function was checking the psys flag for this, but since for
disconnect/connect the same psys is used as source and target, the flag
must be passed explicitly.
By default this now copies from one object's local space to another
object's local space (instead of the previous world space). This is
more useful when transferring particles between objects, because it
doesn't require moving objects on top of each other, as long as they
have similar shapes.
another, including edit data (grooming).
This uses basically the same method as the existing connect/disconnect
feature. The main difference is that it allows working with multiple
objects and transferring the //particle/hair data// instead of the
//mesh// data (which is what connect/disconnect expects). This is a much
more realistic workflow when rigging, topology etc. changes and
groomed hair has to be transferred to the changed model.
shape instead of a brush tool.
The brush cutting tool for hair, while useful, is not very accurate and
often requires rotating the model constantly to get the right trimming
on every side. This makes adjustments to a hair shape a very tedious
process.
On the other hand, making proxy meshes for hair shapes is a common
workflow. The new operator allows using such rough meshes as boundaries
for hair. All hairs that are outside the shape mesh are removed, while
those cutting it at some length are shortened accordingly.
The operator can be accessed in the particle edit mode toolbar via the
"Shape Cut" button. The "Shape Object" must be set first and stays
selected as a tool setting for repeatedly applying the shape.
Along with some minor cleanup and simplifications.

This was a ToDo item, for mesh-based rigid body shapes (trimesh, convex)
the operator was simply using the bounding box volume, which can grossly
overestimate the volume and mass.
Calculating the actual volume of a mesh is not so difficult after all,
see e.g.
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/chazhang/publications/icip01_ChaZhang.pdf
This patch also allows calculating the center-of-mass in the same way.
This is currently unused, because the rigid body system assumes the CoM
to be the same as the geometric object center. This is fine most of the
time, adding such user settings for "center-of-mass offset" would also
add quite a bit of complexity in user space, but it could be necessary
at some point. A number of other physical properties could be calculated
using the same principle, e.g. the moment of inertia.
