This commit includes several performance, stability, and reliability
improvements to cloth collisions.
Most notably:
* The implementation of a new self-collisions system.
* Multithreading of collision detection.
* Implementation of single sided collisions and normal overrides.
* Replacement of the `plNearestPoints` function from Bullet with a
dedicated solution.
Further, this also includes several bug fixes, and algorithmic
improvements.

The main goal of this patch is to cleanup the interface of every modifier. More specifically the interface of modifiers should be DerivedMesh-free.
Internally some modifiers still use DerivedMesh. However I think it is better when the wrappers are in the modifiers so that higher level functions can use the simplified interface.
This patch removes the applyModifier_DM and applyModifierEM_DM functions. In a previous patch (rB3614d9d) the other functions that used DerivedMesh have been removed.

Terms get/set don't make much sense when casting values.
Name macros so the conversion is obvious,
use common prefix for easier completion.
- GET_INT_FROM_POINTER -> POINTER_AS_INT
- SET_INT_IN_POINTER -> POINTER_FROM_INT
- GET_UINT_FROM_POINTER -> POINTER_AS_UINT
- SET_UINT_IN_POINTER -> POINTER_FROM_UINT
Allows to go to sculpt mode, do brush strokes, get out of sculpt mode
and have deformation preserved.
The issues currently is that the current implementation of CCG
storage is created from the limit surface, without displacement
taken into account. It is trivial to get displaced coordinates,
but it is more tricky to get displaced normals. This is something
to be solved next.
Another limitation is that this only works for sculpting at a maximal
multires level. There is code to be done to support propagation
of displacement onto a higher levels.
Attempts to substitude CCGDM with an OpenSubdiv based structure
which has less abstraction levels. The missing part in this
substitude is a face pointers which old CCGDM/multires code was
using to stitch faces (averaging boundaries).
Another curial bit missing: "reshaping" of multires CD_MDISPS
to the state of new PBVH grids.
The new code is only available when OpenSubdiv modifier is
enabled (WITH_OPENSUBDIV_MODIFIER=ON) and with debug value of
128. This is so this WIP code is not interfering with current
production machines in the studio.

This commit adds a new armature modifier for grease pencil. The deformations are done reusing the mesh deform routines.
There is also a new operator in weight paint mode to help the artist to generate weights base on armatures. This operator is required because 2D animation workflow is not equal to meshes when parent an object to armatures.
In the drawing engine has been added the option to handle the Fade object parameter used in armatures to see the strokes while move the bones.
When rename bones, all related data of grease pencil is renamed too. This not only affect new armature code, but also layers parented and hook modifiers.
Thanks @aligorith for his review and help.
Adds a displacement support for OpenSubdiov based subsurf object implemented
as a callback which gives vector displacement in object space. Currently is
implemented to calculate displacement based on myltires displacement grids,
but we can support things in the future if needed.
Submitting to review to see if there is something obviously wrong in the
direction (old multires code was sharing same displacement code to both
calculate final displaced mesh and reshape an existing one, which is rather
confusing and probably can be done more cleanly?).

Currently no functional changes, just exposes all settings which we need
for OpenSubdiv, similar to what Subsurf modifier is doing already.

For users it defines how accurate vertex positions are in terms
of limit surface (as in, how close the vertices locations to the
condition when they are calculated for an infinitely subdivided
mesh).
This affects things like:
- Irregular vertices (joint of 3 or more edges)
- Crease
Keep quality value low for performance.
NOTE: Going higher does not necessarily mean real improvement
in quality, ideal case might be reached well before maximum
quality of 10. Quality of 3 is a good starting point.
Internally quality is translated directly to adaptive subdivision
level.

There are following reasons to do so:
- The plan is to replace it with some sort of object or viewport option,
so we can apply OpenSubdiv subdivisions on top of modifier stack and
keep modifier stack purely CPU side.
This will solve issues when adding some relation in scene will force
modifier to be evaluated on CPU.
- With new upcoming OpenSubdiv based CPU modifier implementation we can
cache topology similar to what GPU side was doing, which will already
be reasonably faster.
- OpenSubdiv GPU does not work since the OpenGL version bump, and is
to be rewritten with all the adaptive refine options kept in mind.
Since OpenSubdiv GPU was already broken and was only causing object
to become invisible, there is no reason to keep having that option in
the modifier.

This replaces old single toggle option to subdivide UVs with
an enum which can have more options. The usecase for this is
to be compatible with other software. But we also might choose
different subdivision type as default in the future.
DNA and underlying code supports all possible options, but
only the ones which are compatible with old subdivision code
are currently exposes.
