* Made the property UI range do bigger steps.
* Increased default values a bit. If people need extreme small values (0.00001) they can enter that manually.
officially - modifiers shouldn't calc other objects derived mesh, but in some cases its needed at the moment for certain scenes, so just disallow booleans depending on booleans.
It was caused by image threading safe commit and it was noticeable
only on really multi-core CPU (like dual-socket Xeon stations), was
not visible on core i7 machine.
The reason of slowdown was spinlock around image buffer referencing,
which lead to lots of cores waiting for single core and using image
buffer after it was referenced was not so much longer than doing
reference itself.
The most clear solution here seemed to be introducing Image Pool
which will contain list of loaded and referenced image buffers, so
all threads could skip lock if the pool is used for reading only.
Lock only needed in cases when buffer for requested image user is
missing in the pool. This lock will happen only once per image so
overall amount of locks is much less that it was before.
To operate with pool:
- BKE_image_pool_new() creates new pool
- BKE_image_pool_free() destroys pool and dereferences all image
buffers which were loaded to it
- BKE_image_pool_acquire_ibuf() returns image buffer for given
image and user. Pool could be NULL and in this case fallback to
BKE_image_acquire_ibuf will happen.
This helps to avoid lots to if(poll) checks in image sampling
code.
- BKE_image_pool_release_ibuf releases image buffer. In fact, it
will only do something if pool is NULL, in all other case it'll
equal to DoNothing operation.
Also:
* Fixes a (op prop) bug which prevented, once you had baked and freed ocean once, to bake again.
* Fixed infinite values of acumulated foam when baking with foam_fade values above 1.0, now simply clipping accumulated foam value to 1.0, as already done for the "instantaneaous" foam value returned by BKE_ocean_jminus_to_foam().
* Added missing RNA descriptions.
* Made foam_fade unanimatable!
* Added in UI some missing properties that are imho useful: random seed, size (kindof 'surface scaling'), and foam_fade (baking only).
* Removed custom lerp() func from bke's ocean.c, BLI's interpf does exactly the same thing (the first two args are just in reversed order). Note: this could most certainly be done in other parts of the code, bpy's mathutils for e.g. has its own linear interpolation code for vectors and matrices :/).
* Did some general code cleanup (mostly line length and no C++ -> C comments)...
Based on patch [#30837] UV Offset Modifier
by Pawel Kowal (pkowal)
- Allows you to setup a transformation between objects to apply to UV coords.
- Option to select which axis apply to U/V.
- Option to select the UV center (needed for transformations that scale or rotate).
- Uses from/to objects in a similar way to the Warp modifier.
- Vertex group can be used to adjust influence.
- BM_mesh_elem_toolflags_ensure / bmo_flag_layer_alloc / bmo_flag_layer_free / bmo_flag_layer_clear
- BM_mesh_select_flush
- EDBM_index_arrays_init
notes:
- mostly use openmp `sections` to split operations on vert/edge/face since this is a fairly minor change.
- split tool flag pool in 3, this means we can allocate exact sizes needed and iterate on them in threads without alloc'ing.
also minor edits to py-api-ref

Thanks for Sergey for finding the bug & patching, This fix works a bit differently.
Theres no need to allocate the customdata in the first place - since its written into. So add a flag for vert/edge/face/loop creation functions so they can skip customdata creation.
Also fix:
- Fluid simulation was always lagging 1 frame behind: E.g. the 250th frame in blender showed 249th frame of the fluid simulation.
Change:
- Animated enabled/disabled property only gets counted as "on" if value >= 1
Note that this bugfix should solve many problems with timings of animated fluid sim properties.
I see we explicitly set the edge visibility in the code for a few
modifiers because of this flag missing. The only place that this flag is
not set is during subsurf so maybe it would make a lot more sense to set
it by default on newly created edges (currently off by default) through
bmesh and turn it off for any modifiers that may need it to be off.
selected linked in face mode was crashing. (needs bmesh operator flags)
also some style edits, remove unused includes and change triangulate modifiers use_beauty to a flag.
Useful for bump map baking where a consistent triangulation should be enforced when baking/exporting/importing, to avoid artifacts caused by a different triangulation of the mesh by that which was used for baking by internal/external tools.
documentation is here http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.65/More_Features
Will probably add some pictures too to demonstrate the issue that is solved more clearly.
Currently using the skin modifier icon, will soon change that.
Review by Brecht, thanks!
