This patch adds a new `falloff_type` ('Inverse Coefficients') for Lamps in
Blender-Internal and GLSL.
The current falloff modes use a formula like this inverse-square one:
`I = E × (D^2 / (D^2 + Q × r^2))`
While such a formula is simple for 3D-artists to use, it's algebraically
cumbersome to work with. Game-designers authoring their own shaders
could benefit much more by having direct control of falloff-coefficients:
`I = E × (1.0 / (coefC + coefL × r + coefQ × r^2))`
In this mode, the `distance` parameter is unused (except for 'Sphere'
mode); instead relying on the designer to mathematically-model the
falloff-behavior.
The UI has been patched like so:

This patch adds a new API which allow us to access light shadow settings from python. The new API can be used to write custom GLSL materials with shadows.

The ultimate goal is to only allow the rasterizer to handle OpenGL and bf_gpu
calls. This commit creates a RAS_ILightObject interface and a RAS_OpenGLLight
implementation.
