This has several benefits:
* User count remains coherent, regardless of the order in which you use 'user_one' & real refcounting users
(i.e. if you add to group, and then link in scene, or the reverse, you now always get same final user count).
* Avoids the need to check for potential 'user_one' extra user in count in several places in code (e.g. when
making IDs single users...).
* Users won't wonder why they cannot make 'single user' and ID even though its user count shows '2'!
* readfile.c now always uses code from BKE's library.c when modifying id->us. Which means we can consider
(asside from assignment during initialization) that id->us is read-only outside of library.c context.
Note that this commit reverts previous one (rB6b1d77a8052b) - please **do not** backport this one in 2.77.
Problem was, during initialization of boids particles in `dynamics_step()`,
psys of target objects was not obtained with generic `psys_get_target_system()`
as later in code, which could lead to some uninitialized `psys->tree` usage...
Think it's safe enough for 2.77, though not a regression.
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:

Static schedule was responsible here...
Also, made a minor optimization in case adaptative (auto) subframes are enabled,
gives a few percent of speedup here.
This is a new option for panorama cameras to render
stereo that can be used in virtual reality devices
The option is available under the camera panel when Multi-View is enabled (Views option in the Render Layers panel)
Known limitations:
------------------
* Parallel convergence is not supported (you need to set a convergence distance really high to simulate this effect).
* Pivot was not supposed to affect the render but it does, this has to be looked at, but for now set it to CENTER
* Derivatives in perspective camera need to be pre-computed or we shuld get rid of kcam->dx/dy (Sergey words, I don't fully grasp the implication shere)
* This works in perspective mode and in panorama mode. However, for fully benefit from this effect in perspective mode you need to render a cube map. (there is an addon for this, developed separately, perhaps we could include it in master).
* We have no support for "neck distance" at the moment. This is supposed to help with objects at short distances.
* We have no support to rotate the "Up Axis" of the stereo plane. Meaning, we hardcode 0,0,1 as UP, and create the stereo pair related to that. (although we could take the camera local UP when rendering panoramas, this wouldn't work for perspective cameras.
* We have no support for interocular distance attenuation based on the proximity of the poles (which helps to reduce the pole rotation effect/artifact).
THIS NEEDS DOCS - both in 2.78 release log and the Blender manual.
Meanwhile you can read about it here: http://code.blender.org/2015/03/1451
This patch specifically dates from March 2015, as you can see in the code.blender.org post. Many thanks to all the reviewers, testers and minor sponsors who helped me maintain spherical-stereo for 1 year.
All that said, have fun with this. This feature was what got me started with Multi-View development (at the time what I was looking for was Fulldome stereo support, but the implementation is the same). In order to make this into Blender I had to make it aiming at a less-specic user-case Thus Multi-View started. (this was December 2012, during Siggraph Asia and a chat I had with Paul Bourke during the conference). I don't have the original patch anymore, but you can find a re-based version of it from March 2013, right before I start with the Multi-View project https://developer.blender.org/P332

Current startup .blend has old (percent?) values for particle brush strength.
Since rBe4e21480d6331903c90ab073746484498441e1ac, UI controls do not clamp automatically values anymore,
which means when you first enable comb (or any other brush) you get a 50 strength, waaaayyyy to powerful.
This commit fixes this in `BLO_update_defaults_startup_blend`, note that it does not fix custom users'
startup files, nothing to do here...
Handling `me` data here is not good idea anyway, we override it completly with data
from `tmp` (crash came from freeing already existing bb from me, while pointer still existed in tmp).
(rediscovered it while working on T47676...).
To be backported to 2.77.
Quite trivial idea -- just pass tread ID to the texture sampling function.
Implemented as a TLS to avoid passing huge amount of extra contexts around.
Should be working on all platforms, but compilation test is required.

`m` unit when used after `cm`/`mm`/etc. ones would get ignored, and the alt version of miles
would be used instead.
The root of the issue is that, in `unit_find_str`, once we get a 'hit' for a unit, we check
it's actual unit (since 'm' would also hit on 'cm', 'mm', etc.). In case that hit is not a
valid unit one, we would just return NULL, breaking the cycle of checks over that unit, and
hence missing all later usages of it.
So now, in case we have an 'invalid unit hit', we immediately retry to find it within remaining string.
The issue was caused by some code accessing R from a functions which
are marked as safe for use from outside of render pipeline.
Now those functions are safe(er) for use.
This is an alternative to passing a copy callback which is some times inconvenient.
Instead the caller can write to the key - needed when the key is duplicated memory.
Allows for minor optimization in ghash/gset use.
Also add BLI_gset_ensure_p_ex
Code was using degrees as radians.
Still unclear why default cube will have 180 degrees angle, but new meshes 30,
but that's kinda separate topic which is to be addressed separately.
This is a subject for final 2.77 release.
This reverts commit 935e241fa6.
Issue will be fixed in a more localized way for now (not that nice, since this use-after-free can possibly happen
in other places too, but only safe solution for 2.77).
This commit is to be backported in 2.77.
Those new functions invert the winding of polygons, effectively inverting their normals.
A helper was also added to allow swapping two items in customdata layers.
Being able to invert normals outside of BMesh area is very important in several places,
like IO scripts or customnormals modifiers...

Took me some time to figure out what was going on here... Was again that delayed button
callback stuff (`ui_apply_but_funcs_after()`), first calling button op, and then
its callback func.
Issue was that 'open file' op (through call to `WM_file_read()`) would clear
the splash screen (as more or less the entire 'dynamic' UI), but callback func of that splash
(`wm_block_splash_refreshmenu()`) would still try to access that freed menu's region.
So, root of the issue seems to be that setting context's wm/win/etc. would not clear
context's menu pointer (while clearing all other 'sub' pointers). I could not find
nor imagine any case where this behavior could be desired, so simply added nullification
of that pointer when setting context's wm/win/etc.
Note that crash was due to read-after-free, infuriating debug builds with asan,
but seems like release builds never actually crashed on it.
Also re-reported through IRC by Thomas Beck (@plasmasolutions), thanks.
Though it's not ideal in theory, we have quite poor handling of object datablock currently
from user PoV - before this commit, it was not easily possible to get fully rid of an object
anymore if you did not removed it from all its groups before deleting it.
So for now, restore 2.76 behavior (namely, unlink an object from avaerything in Blender
once it is no more used by any scene).
Better handling of all this is TODO for later (also related to much more heavy changes
done in id-remap branch regarding sanitizing our ID deletion process).
Only Driver FCurves with named shapekeys (instead of shapekey indices) was
getting picked up by the UI code for testing whether a property had drivers
or not. So, while this version patching code worked when it was initially
written for the 2.4x -> 2.5 transition, some subsequent changes ended up
breaking this. As this stuff is not used often, the breakage wasn't noticed.
