This adds vertex snapping capabilities for curves. Snaps to all control points
of other objects, and visible + selected control points and handles in curve
edit mode.

confusion, grid snap is now the default as it seems to be the most wanted and easy to use mode.
Absolute grid snapping happens in a somewhat generic function 'applyGridAbsolute', which could also be used for objects and other transforms later on. It is conceptually similar to the 'project' snapping
option, in that it calculates a delta vector for each element on top of the overall transform, which places each node on the grid.
Node transform now uses the top-left node corner for TransformData->loc. The transform center is still the average of node centers, so that scaling and rotation works nicely.
snapGrid*** functions have been renamed to snapGridIncrement*** to distinguish better between incremental and absolute grid snapping.
It wasn't enabled in snapping code from the beginning it seems,
but from quick tests snapping for mballs works just fine.
Maybe we could drop out check for edit object type now?
since enough bmesh operations can also take advantage of direct index lookups on verts/edges/faces.
developers note:
- EDBM_index_arrays_init/ensure/free -> BM_mesh_elem_table_ensure/init/free
- EDBM_vert/edge/face_at_index -> BM_vert/edge/face_at_index
- EDBM_uv_element_map_create/free -> BM_uv_element_map_create/free
- ED_uv_element_get -> BM_uv_element_get
- when in wireframe mode: don't snap to faces, instead snap to the closest edge/vertex.
- when not in wireframe mode: snap to the front-most element (was a problem that it could snap to an edge/vert behind the face)
- reduce the distance for selecting ruler points, was too easy to accidentally drag a ruler.
Casting a ray onto an editmesh was building a derivedMesh, raytree, then freeing for every ray-cast.
Noticed while using ruler+snapping in editmode.
Instead of attempting to align the MFace and edit-mesh tessfaces, just use editmesh for ray-casting.
this may introduce bugs which I didn't catch, but they are very easy to identify in a debug build which has asserts to ensure the arrays are valid before use.
in my own test drawing ~98,304 quads - this gave an overall ~16% drawing speedup.
Generated and UV coordinates from the duplicator of instance instead of the
object itself.
This was used in e.g. Big Buck Bunny for texturing instanced feathers with
a UV map on the bird. Many files changed, mainly to do some refactoring to
get rid of G.rendering global in duplilist code.
- make view3d project names more consistent.
- remove apply_project_float() its not needed.
- update comments referencing an old function name.
- move doxygen docs into the C file, prefer they are kept here to avoid getting out of sync with code.
