The issue here was that removing datablock from main database will poke editors
update, which includes buttons context to free users of texture. Since Cycles
will free datablocks from job thread, it might crash Blender since main thread
might be in the middle of drawing.
Solved by exposing extra arguments to bpy.data.foo.remove() which indicates
whether we want to perform ID user count and interface updates. While scripts
shouldn't be using those normally, this is the only way to allow Cycles to skip
interface update when removing datablock.

Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
GCC seems to detect uninitialized into function calls now, but then isn't
always smart enough to see that it is actually initialized. Disabling this
warning entirely seems a bit too much, so initialize a bit more now.
The issue was caused by usage of address of dupli-object (which will vary
from iteration process to iteration process) as something denoting whether
we've got the data synchronized to Cycles or not.
For now solved by using address of original object (the one DupliObject
points to) as a pointer for the map.
Need to do more thoughts about this.
The idea is to make include statements more explicit and obvious where the
file is coming from, additionally reducing chance of wrong header being
picked up.
For example, it was not obvious whether bvh.h was refferring to builder
or traversal, whenter node.h is a generic graph node or a shader node
and cases like that.
Surely this might look obvious for the active developers, but after some
time of not touching the code it becomes less obvious where file is coming
from.
This was briefly mentioned in T50824 and seems @brecht is fine with such
explicitness, but need to agree with all active developers before committing
this.
Please note that this patch is lacking changes related on GPU/OpenCL
support. This will be solved if/when we all agree this is a good idea to move
forward.

New logic of split_faces was leaving mesh in a proper state
from Blender's point of view, but Cycles wanted loop normals
to be "flushed" to vertex normals.
Now we do such a flush from Cycles side again, so we don't
leave bad meshes behind.
Thanks Bastien for assistance here!
Blenders baking system currently doesn't support the topology used by
adaptive subdivision and primitive ids will be wrong or out of range
leading to crashes. Updating the baking system to support other
topologies would be a bit involved, so for now we simply disable
subdivision while baking to avoid crashes.
The issue was that we used to compare number of vertices for mesh after the auto
smooth was applied (at the center of the shutter time) with number of vertices
prior to the auto smooth applied. This caused false-positive consideration of a
mesh as changing topology.
Now we do autosplit as early as possible and do it from blender side, so Cycles
does not need to re-implement splitting on it's side.
By calling `tessellate()` from the mesh manager in Cycles we can do pre/post
processing or even threaded tessellation without concerning client side code
with the details.
Displacement is now a per material setting, which means old files will have to
be updated if they had used displacement. Cool side effect of this change is
material previews now show displacement.

Enables Catmull-Clark subdivision meshes with support for creases and attribute
subdivision. Still waiting on OpenSubdiv to fully support face varying
interpolation for subdividing uv coordinates tho. Also there may be some
inconsistencies with Blender's subdivision which will be resolved at a
later time.
Code for reading patch tables and creating patch maps is borrowed
from OpenSubdiv.

Subdivision options can now be found in the subsurf modifier. The modifier must
be the last in the stack or the options will be unavailable. Catmull-Clark
subdivision is still unavailable and will fallback to linear subdivision instead

This adds support for ngons and attributes on subdivision meshes. Ngons are
needed for proper attribute interpolation as well as correct Catmull-Clark
subdivision. Several changes are made to achieve this:
- new primitive `SubdFace` added to `Mesh`
- 3 more textures are used to store info on patches from subd meshes
- Blender export uses loop interface instead of tessface for subd meshes
- `Attribute` class is updated with a simplified way to pass primitive counts
around and to support ngons.
- extra points for ngons are generated for O(1) attribute interpolation
- curves are temporally disabled on subd meshes to avoid various bugs with
implementation
- old unneeded code is removed from `subd/`
- various fixes and improvements
