Custom handle settings actually affect the B-Bone rest shape,
so they should be changed in Edit mode rather than Pose mode.
This is necessary to be able to display the correct rest shape
of the bone in Edit Mode.
Also, instead of flags, introduce an enum to specify the handle
operation modes, so that new ones could be added later.

`BKE_pose_rebuild()` should (ideally) always trigger a rebuild of the
depsgraph, since it can add or remove posechannels.
This function now takes a Main parameter to ensure that related
depsgraphes are tagged as dirty (kept it optional, for some corner cases).
We should also probably double-check calls to that function, think in
theory it should only be called from depsgraph itself? But for now...
While the feature is interesting, it's not much from what we can tell.
Retargeting is an important feature but needs
to fit in better with typical animation work-flows.

- Wasn't clear which functions handle edit-bones.
- Mixed both ebone and edit_bone in names.
- Didn't use ED_armature_* prefix for public API.
See P655 to apply to branches.
This fix enables the usage of bbones easing parameters for edit and pose mode seperately. This allows animators to take advantage of the functionality and may eliminate confusion as the parameters now behave similar to other bbone parameters.
Note that splitting the parameters between the modes effectively creates a new parameter set. Blend files of previous versions do not contain this information and will have the values set to 0 on load. As it broke backwards compatibility for pose mode values anyway, I also took the liberty to rename the easing parameters in some places for consistency (which breaks edit mode values).

Current code changes the selection then then runs ED_armature_sync_selection
to copy to the bones rootsel flag from the parents tipsel.
Use this logic for entering edit-mode too.
This commit/patch/branch brings a bunch of powerful new options for B-Bones and
for working with B-Bones, making it easier for animators to create their own
rigs, using fewer bones (which also means hopefully lighter + faster rigs ;)
This functionality was first demoed by Daniel at BConf15
Some highlights from this patch include:
* You can now directly control the shape of B-Bones using a series of properties
instead of being restricted to trying to indirectly control them through the
neighbouring bones. See the "Bendy Bones" panel...
* B-Bones can be shaped in EditMode to define a "curved rest pose" for the bone.
This is useful for things like eyebrows and mouths/eyelids
* You can now make B-Bones use custom bones as their reference bone handles,
instead of only using the parent/child bones. To do so, enable the
"Use Custom Reference Handles" toggle. If none are specified, then the BBone will
only use the Bendy Bone properties.
* Constraints Head/Tail option can now slide along the B-Bone shape, instead of
just linearly interpolating between the endpoints of the bone.

That one was hairy... To summarize:
* We were setting Bone.head/tail (aka **local** rest location of bone) from EditBone data, using **EditBone's parent computed armature space**.
* We use those local head/tail to define Bone's restpose (in `BKE_armature_where_is_bone()`), using **Bone's parent armature space** (aka parent's arm_mat).
* Because of bone's roll nightmare, the two above parent's matrices will often not be the same.
In an ideal world, this should not affect locations (head/tail), but in real world of float it does - noticeably, in some extreme cases.
So! This commit cleans up things a bit (`fix_bonelist_roll()` was already doing much more than just fixing roll mess, has been renamed
to `armature_finalize_restpose()`), and ensures we do use (final!) parent's arm_mat local space to compute children's local head/tail as well.
This allows us to avoid too much imprecision here.
Checked the patch also with a complete Victor's rig from Gooseberry, seems to have no nasty side effects - fingers crossed!
`fix_bonelist_roll()` is already recursive, and was calling recursive `BKE_armature_where_is_bone()` twice!
Changed `BKE_armature_where_is_bone()` to controll whether we recurse over children or not.
With full Victor's rig, we gain 16% in `ED_armature_from_edit()` (from 31ms to 26ms).
With a dummy test-case 100 bones chain, we gain 80% in `ED_armature_from_edit()` (from 1.25ms to 0.25ms).
Not crucial, but still worth it. ;)
Active edit bone was cleared from armature after each file save, even though the edit data is not actually freed then. Without the active edit bone the poll functions for bone panels fail.
