Current temporary data of Blender suffers one major issue - default 'temp' dir on Windows is never
automatically cleaned up, and can end being quite big when used by Blender, especially when we have
to store per-process data (using getpid() in file names).
To address this, this patch:
* Divides tempdir paths in two, one for 'base' temp dir (the same as previous unique tempdir path),
the other is a mkdtemp-generated sub-dir, specific to each Blender instance.
* Only uses base tempdir when we need some shallow persistance accross Blender sessions - and we always
reuse the same filename (quit.blend...) or generate small file (crash reports...).
* Uses temp sub-dir for heavy files like pointcache or renderEXRs (Save Buffer option).
* Erases temp sub-dir on quit or crash.
To get this working it also adds a working 'recursive delete' to BLI_delete() under Windows.
Note that, as in current code, the 'recover render result' hack-feature that was possible
with SaveBuffer option is still removed. A real renderresult cache feature will be added
soon, though.

On windows "." was replaced with the root directory.
On other systems any path starting with a '.' would be replaced with "/"
This was added for the file selector only,
so better handle this in the file selector (though it looks not to be needed).

Allows users on Windows to enter UNC paths in the filebrowser and to link to .blend files on a UNC path. Functionality is limited still, we can't browse the network yet and have no support to check user rights so far.
What works:
- enter an UNC path in the file browser manually or via copy/paste
- navigation within the UNC share subfolders
- link to a file on a UNC share
What does not (yet) work:
- browse the network for computers and shares
- browse to a folder that requires entering user credentials

seems that somehow not having this is causing keyboard events to be caught by
SDL. This was removed because it broke addons that could use SDL, now set the
environment variable only temporary during SDL initialization.
This may have been causing issues with keyboard events getting missed in the
game engine, but I couldn't confirm the issue here.
After this revision BLI_stringdec worked incorrect
in cases there's no digits in original file name,
making head one character shorter than it should be.
Time to cover BLI with unit-tests?
- add accent_grave.
- strip the search string.
- add numpad numbers (currently these match regular numbers).
also remove unneeded forward declarations in path_util.c
from Lawrence D'Oliveiro
Improve implementation of BLI_cleanup_path, including making it behave as documented.
"/../home/me" would become "home/me" rather then "/home/me"
Also remove redundant BLI_strncpy()
from Lawrence D'Oliveiro (ldo)
Get rid of BLI_splitdirstring, replace with calls to BLI_split_dirfile, BLI_split_dir_part and BLI_split_file_part as appropriate.

- Better argument name for BLI_cleanup_path and BLI_cleanup_file
- remove redundant BLI_add_slash already done by BLI_cleanup_dir
from Lawrence D'Oliveiro (ldo)
More use of bool type, necessitating adding inclusion of BLI_utildefines.h, or moving it up in the inclusion order if it was already included, in various places
- storage.c: make some variables only used in bli_builddir local to that
- storage.c: BLI_file_descriptor_size should allow 0 as a valid file descriptor
- path_util.c: make pointers to non-reentrant storage returned from folder routines const, necessitating making variables holding these returned pointers const elsewhere as well
- path_util.c: BLI_string_to_utf8 closes iconv context in case of conversion error
- blf_lang.c: fill_locales routine now has its own "languages" local variable to construct paths (was stealing internal storage belonging to BLI_get_folder before)
