So! First, frame for absolute shape keys: never allow a new key to have the same pos as an
existing one (this does not make sense). This way, the two workflows are possible (create
all keys and then animate ctime, or animate ctime and then create keys where you need them).
Also, fixed UIList for shapekeys, the "absolute" test was wrong, and better to show frame
value, even though not editable, than nothing in case of absolute keys.
And finally, add getter to RNA 'frame' readonly value, so that we output real frame values,
and not dummy internal ones (which are /100) in our API.
- underline faces had flipped winding by default.
- BKE_vfont_to_curve_ex disallowed 0 underline height (annoying when sliding value)
- disallow negative underline height since it flips underline direction (just change position + height)
This patch removes the limitations on the number of action layers in the BGE.
BL_ActionManager currently uses a fixed array to keep track of the action layers. This patch replaces the fixed array with a map which allows for dynamic allocation of action layers. Layers (map items) are automatically removed on BL_ActionManager's update function. The maximum number of layers is roughly the value of a short. Backwards functionality is maintained and there are no changes to the Python API.

As reported by ZanQdo on IRC, the bend modifier's "angle" property had a range
of +/- 572.95 degrees (equivalent to 10 radians). From the looks of things, this
was simply something overlooked when doing degrees to radians conversions. Now
it has a range of +/- 180 degrees.
New operator that can calls a bake function to the current render engine when available. This commit provides no feature for the users, but allows external engines to be accessed by the operator and be integrated with the baking api.
The API itself is simple. Blender sends a populated array of BakePixels to the renderer, and gets back an array of floats with the result.
The Blender Internal (and multires) system is still running independent, but we eventually will pipe it through the API as well. Cycles baking will come next as a separated commit
Python Operator:
----------------
The operator can be called with some arguments, or a user interface can be created for it. In that case the arguments can be ommited and the interface can expose the settings from bpy.context.scene.render.bake
bpy.ops.object.bake(type='COMBINED', filepath="", width=512, height=512, margin=16, use_selected_to_active=False, cage_extrusion=0, cage="", normal_space='TANGENT', normal_r='POS_X', normal_g='POS_Y', normal_b='POS_Z', save_mode='INTERNAL', use_clear=False, use_split_materials=False, use_automatic_name=False)
Note: external save mode is currently disabled.
Supported Features:
------------------
* Margin - Baked result is extended this many pixels beyond the border of each UV "island," to soften seams in the texture.
* Selected to Active - bake shading on the surface of selected object to the active object. The rays are cast from the lowpoly object inwards towards the highpoly object. If the highpoly object is not entirely involved by the lowpoly object, you can tweak the rays start point with Cage Extrusion. For even more control of the cage you can use a Cage object.
* Cage Extrusion - distance to use for the inward ray cast when using selected to active
* Custom Cage - object to use as cage (instead of the lowpoly object).
* Normal swizzle - change the axis that gets mapped to RGB
* Normal space - save as tangent or object normal spaces
Supported Passes:
-----------------
Any pass that is supported by Blender renderlayer system. Though it's up to the external engine to provide a valid enum with its supported passes. Normal passes get a special treatment since we post-process them to converted and "swizzled"
Development Notes for External Engines:
---------------------------------------
(read them in bake_api.c)
* For a complete implementation example look at the Cycles Bake commit (next).

The .exe extension *is* needed on Windows for makesrna, contray to the
patch author's protestations otherwise. Omitting it breaks compilation
on mingw at least (i.e. "rename()" fails). Thanks to "PerfectionCat"
for narrowing down this bug.
makesdna on the other hand still seems to work ok from a quick test I did.
Unless more issues crop up, just reverting this part of the patch should
be ok, though IMO these changes were unnecessary in the first place.
This option (alongside the Ease In/Out/InOut options already available) aims to make it
easier to get an initial curve that looks closer to the one you were expecting, by
automatically picking whether Ease In or Ease Out should be used based on the type of
interpolation being used for the curve segment in question.
Notes:
* The types chosen may need some adjustments (e.g. using ease in-out instead of just ease in)
* This does break compatability with files saved in previous dev builds, but only
if you were using Bounce/Elastic/Back with "Ease In"
This patch adds icons for each of the keyframe interpolation types (including
the easing equations), as well as icons for the easing type options.
