The Ctrl-Shift-C operator to add constraints between a pair of selected items,
for example, between two objects, or between two bones (in the same armature).
This commit makes it possible to use this operator to add a constraint where the
target is a bone from another object - e.g. to make a deform bone follow the control
bone in another armature, or to make an object use a bone as a tracking target.
Usage:
1) Ensure you are in Pose Mode, then select the bone to use as the target
2) Shift-Select the other object and/or the bone that's going to get the constraint
3) Ctrl-Shift-C
Problem was in fact slightly wider, File space was nearly not taking into account
library navigation case and its 'virtual' directoris, except in a few places.
Add a wrapper around BLI_is_dir that also check for lib paths, and used it in
ED_file_change_dir(), such that we now always check path is a
valid directory - in the filebrowser context, not filesytem context. ;)
Those (one per ID type!) were uselessly duplicated, and badly inconsistent
(some types were actually unlinking before deletion, others were only working if already unlinked!).
Now we use same func and same API for all types, by default deletion is performed only if ID is no more used,
set `do_unlink` parameter to True to always delete ID even if still in use.
Only exception now is with Scene, since we always want to keep at least one!
Note that this will change default behavior of some types (since unlinking is never done anymore by default).
Exiting Blender during argument parsing would leak memory
(tests, documentation generation, utilities).
While harmless, it hides real leaks which should be resolved.
This commit adds a new distribution to the Glossy, Anisotropic and Glass BSDFs that implements the
multiple-scattering microfacet model described in the paper "Multiple-Scattering Microfacet BSDFs with the Smith Model".
Essentially, the improvement is that unlike classical GGX, which only models single scattering and assumes
the contribution of multiple bounces to be zero, this new model performs a random walk on the microsurface until
the ray leaves it again, which ensures perfect energy conservation.
In practise, this means that the "darkening problem" - GGX materials becoming darker with increasing
roughness - is solved in a physically correct and efficient way.
The downside of this model is that it has no (known) analytic expression for evalation. However, it can be
evaluated stochastically, and although the correct PDF isn't known either, the properties of MIS and the
balance heuristic guarantee an unbiased result at the cost of slightly higher noise.

To get this working the least effort, I've had to expose the helper functions
used by the lasso and circle select keyframe-test callbacks (which are generic)
and expose them for use by the GP keyframe editing code too. Hopefully in time
we clean this all up and just write the code once to operate on "keyframes"
This only works in the Action and Dopesheet modes (which operate on FCurve keyframes).
Support for Grease Pencil and Mask Keyframes though is still pending.
This new operator will delete any GP frame it finds on the current frame, regardless
of whether it's on the active layer or not. It will only remove the frames if the
layer is editable, but otherwise, it will just go for it.
The existing operator is great for use in the panel (where it only applies to the active
frame), but it was not so good for all the other places where tools can be invoked
(e.g. D-X, or Delete) as you're typically thinking about the whole scene more holisticaly
than just caring about a particular layer.
In rare cases intersect would attempt to add edges with the same vertex twice
from edge-vert / edge-edge intersections.
Solve by checking for duplicates when creating vertex-array for these types of intersections
(always under 3x comparisons, so not much overhead).
Replaces `G.is_rendering` with `use_render_params` argument.
This is needed for Cycles, which attempts to restore render-preview settings from particles,
after it gets its own particle data, but fails to restore because
`G.is_rendering` was being checked in psys_cache_paths (and other places).
This commit adds operators and Outliner menu entries to reload or relocate a library,
and to delete or replace a datablock.
RNA ID API is also extended to allow ID deletion and remapping from python.

This commit changes a lot of how IDs are handled internally, especially the unlinking/freeing
processes. So far, this was very fuzy, to summarize cleanly deleting or replacing a datablock
was pretty much impossible, except for a few special cases.
Also, unlinking was handled by each datatype, in a rather messy and prone-to-errors way (quite
a few ID usages were missed or wrongly handled that way).
One of the main goal of id-remap branch was to cleanup this, and fatorize ID links handling
by using library_query utils to allow generic handling of those, which is now the case
(now, generic ID links handling is only "knwon" from readfile.c and library_query.c).
This commit also adds backends to allow live replacement and deletion of datablocks in Blender
(so-called 'remapping' process, where we replace all usages of a given ID pointer by a new one,
or NULL one in case of unlinking).
This will allow nice new features, like ability to easily reload or relocate libraries, real immediate
deletion of datablocks in blender, replacement of one datablock by another, etc.
Some of those are for next commits.
A word of warning: this commit is highly risky, because it affects potentially a lot in Blender core.
Though it was tested rather deeply, being totally impossible to check all possible ID usage cases,
it's likely there are some remaining issues and bugs in new code... Please report them! ;)

Getting a new edit-derived-bmesh was always creating a deform-vert array, even when it wasn't needed.
Since this was called on redraw, in many cases it was doing it unnecessarily.
Now pass in a custom-data mask and only fill in deform-verts when needed.
Gives noticeable drawing speedup (~10-30% here).
