While SCons building system was serving us really good for ages it's no longer
having much attention by the developers and started to become quite a difficult
task to maintain.
What's even worse -- there started to be quite serious divergence between SCons
and CMake which was only accumulating over the releases now. The fact that none
of the active developers are really using SCons and that our main studio is also
using CMake spotting bugs in the SCons builds became quite a difficult task and
we aren't always spotting them in time.
Meanwhile CMake became really mature building system which is available on every
platform we support and arguably it's also easier and more robust to use.
This commit includes:
- Removal of actual SCons building system
- Removal of SCons git submodule
- Removal of documentation which is stored in the sources and covers SCons
- Tweaks to the buildbot master to stop using SCons submodule
(this change requires deploying to the server)
- Tweaks to the install dependencies script to skip installing or mentioning
SCons building system
- Tweaks to various helper scripts to avoid mention of SCons folders/files
as well

Use float in moto instead of double for MT_Scalar.
This switch allow future optimization like SSE.
Additionally, it changes the OpenGL calls to float versions as they are
very bad with doubles.

Fixing crash if the physic type is set sensor or character. Caused by a790e172d0.
Fixing memory leak, if the constraint is deleted with Python API removeConstraint().
Add RemoveConstraint() method to avoid code duplication.
Rename old RemoveConstraint() to RemoveConstraintById() which is more suitable name for this method.
This is a squashed commit of the following:
BGE Physics Cleanup: Fix crashes with LibLoading and replication. Also fixing some memory leaks.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing KX_IPhysicsController and KX_BulletPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Moving the replication code outside of KX_BlenderBulletController and switching KX_ConvertPhysicsObjects to create a CcdPhysicsController instead of a KX_BlenderBulletController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Getting rid of an unsued KX_BulletPhysicsController.h include in KX_Scene.cpp.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing unused KX_IPhysicsController and KX_BulletPhysicsController includes.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing m_pPhysicsController1 and GetPhysicsController1() from KX_GameObject.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Remove SetRigidBody() from KX_IPhysicsController and remove GetName() from CcdPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Moving Add/RemoveCompoundChild() from KX_IPhysicsController to PHY_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing GetLocalInertia() from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Making BlenderBulletCharacterController derive from PHY_ICharacter and removing CharacterWrapper from CcdPhysicsEnvironment.cpp. Also removing the character functions from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing GetOrientation(), SetOrientation(), SetPosition(), SetScaling(), and GetRadius() from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing GetReactionForce() since all implementations returned (0, 0, 0). The Python interface for KX_GameObject still has reaction force code, but it still also returns (0, 0, 0). This can probably be removed as well, but removing it can break scripts, so I'll leave it for now.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing Get/SetLinVelocityMin() and Get/SetLinVelocityMax() from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing SetMargin(), RelativeTranslate(), and RelativeRotate() from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Using constant references for function arguments in PHY_IPhysicsController where appropriate.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing ApplyImpulse() from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing ResolveCombinedVelocities() from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Accidently removed a return when cleaning up KX_GameObject::PyGetVelocity().
BGE Physics Cleanup: Remove GetLinearVelocity(), GetAngularVelocity() and GetVelocity() from KX_IPhysicsController. The corresponding PHY_IPhysicsController functions now also take Moto types instead of scalars to match the KX_IPhysicsController interface.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Moving SuspendDynamics, RestoreDynamics, SetMass, GetMass, and SetTransform from KX_IPhysicsController to PHY_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: PHY_IPhysicsEnvironment and derived classes now use the same naming scheme as PHY_IController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: PHY_IMotionState and derived classes now use the same naming convention as PHY_IController.
BGE Phsyics Cleanup: Making PHY_IController and its derived classes follow a consistent naming scheme for member functions. They now all start with capital letters (e.g., setWorldOrientation becomes SetWorldOrientation).
BGE Physics Cleanup: Getting rid of KX_GameObject::SuspendDynamics() and KX_GameObject::RestoreDynamics(). Instead, use the functions from the physics controller.
BGE: Some first steps in trying to cleanup the KX_IPhysicsController mess. KX_GameObject now has a GetPhysicsController() and a GetPhysicsController1(). The former returns a PHY_IPhysicsController* while the latter returns a KX_IPhysicsController. The goal is to get everything using GetPhysicsController() instead of GetPhysicsController1().
* jump() -- causes the character to jump
* onGround -- specifies whether or not the character is on the ground
* gravity -- controls the "gravity" that the character physics uses for the character
More options could be added (such as jump speed, step height, make fall speed, max slope, etc).
viewport. This helps to eliminate OpenGL calls in weird places like the physics
code and to reduce glGet calls, which are expensive.
There should be no functional changes (except maybe a very slight speed improvement).
blender_add_lib now takes a separate include argument to suppress warnings in system includes (mostly ffmpeg & python).
also only build wm_apple.c on apple+carbon configuration.
globbing vs explicit is discussed here.

Practical implications are:
- developers need to keep CMakeLists.txt files up to date.
- Users wont get strange linking errors if they build after a file is added, since CMake detects CMakeLists.txt is modified and automatically reconfigure.
* bring back 'player' libtype, after investigation with ideasman.
scons/mingw works nicely, for some reason msvc fails to link still, will look further into it.
* further cleaning of 'player' stuff. Now only 3 libs are remaining, of which ideally the stubs lib will be fixed at some point, fading away into the dark history of not-so-nice code. The current blenderplayer part is still a little bit hackish, I'll see if I can find a better alternative, for now it works good enough.
* first working changes to get blenderplayer linking
* blenderplayer/ moved into source/ (CMakeLists.txt changed for that too)
* added externs for bprogname to gp_ghost, so that it links properly
* removed radiosity render code, DNA and RNA (left in radio render pass options), we'll get GI to replace this probably, better allow baking to vertex colors for people who used this.
* removed deprecated solid physics library, sumo integrations and qhull, a dependency
* removed ODE, was no longer being build or supported
* remove BEOS and AMIGA defines and references in Makefiles.

Notes:
* Game and sequencer RNA, and sequencer header are now out of date
a bit after changes in trunk.
* I didn't know how to port these bugfixes, most likely they are
not needed anymore.
* Fix "duplicate strip" always increase the user count for ipo.
* IPO pinning on sequencer strips was lost during Undo.
Added occlusion culling capability in the BGE.
More info: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.49/Game_Engine#BGE_Scenegraph_improvement
MSVC, scons, cmake, Makefile updated.
Other minor performance improvements:
- The rasterizer was computing the openGL model matrix of the objects too many times
- DBVT view frustrum culling was not properly culling behind the near plane:
Large objects behind the camera were sent to the GPU
- Remove all references to mesh split/join feature as it is not yet functional
This commit contains a number of performance improvements for the
BGE in the Scenegraph (parent relation between objects in the
scene) and view frustrum culling.
The scenegraph improvement consists in avoiding position update
if the object has not moved since last update and the removal
of redundant updates and synchronization with the physics engine.
The view frustrum culling improvement consists in using the DBVT
broadphase facility of Bullet to build a tree of graphical objects
in the scene. The elements of the tree are Aabb boxes (Aligned
Axis Bounding Boxes) enclosing the objects. This provides good
precision in closed and opened scenes. This new culling system
is enabled by default but just in case, it can be disabled with
a button in the World settings. There is no do_version in this
commit but it will be added before the 2.49 release. For now you
must manually enable the DBVT culling option in World settings
when you open an old file.
The above improvements speed up scenegraph and culling up to 5x.
However, this performance improvement is only visible when
you have hundreds or thousands of objects.
The main interest of the DBVT tree is to allow easy occlusion
culling and automatic LOD system. This will be the object of further
improvements.

Issues:
* GHOST/X11 had conflicting changes. Some code was added in 2.5, which was
later added in trunk also, but reverted partially, specifically revision
16683. I have left out this reversion in the 2.5 branch since I think it is
needed there.
http://projects.blender.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php?view=rev&root=bf-blender&revision=16683
* Scons had various conflicting changes, I decided to go with trunk version
for everything except priorities and some library renaming.
* In creator.c, there were various fixes and fixes for fixes related to the -w
-W and -p options. In 2.5 -w and -W is not coded yet, and -p is done
differently. Since this is changed so much, and I don't think those fixes
would be needed in 2.5, I've left them out.
* Also in creator.c: there was code for a python bugfix where the screen was not
initialized when running with -P. The code that initializes the screen there
I had to disable, that can't work in 2.5 anymore but left it commented as a
reminder.
Further I had to disable some new function calls. using src/ and python/, as
was done already in this branch, disabled function calls:
* bpath.c: error reporting
* BME_conversions.c: editmesh conversion functions.
* SHD_dynamic: disabled almost completely, there is no python/.
* KX_PythonInit.cpp and Ketsji/ build files: Mathutils is not there, disabled.
* text.c: clipboard copy call.
* object.c: OB_SUPPORT_MATERIAL.
* DerivedMesh.c and subsurf_ccg, stipple_quarttone.
Still to be done:
* Go over files and functions that were moved to a different location but could
still use changes that were done in trunk.
