This is the core code for it, tools (datatransfer and modifier) will come in next commits).
RNA api is already there, though.
See the code for details, but basically, we define, for each 'smooth fan'
(which is a set of adjacent loops around a same vertex that are smooth, i.e. have a single same normal),
a 'loop normal space' (or lnor space), using auto-computed normal and relevant edges, and store
custom normal as two angular factors inside that space. This allows to have custom normals
'following' deformations of the geometry, and to only save two shorts per loop in new clnor CDLayer.
Normal manipulation (editing, mixing, interpolating, etc.) shall always happen with plain 3D vectors normals,
and be converted back into storage format at the end.
Clnor computation has also been threaded (at least for Mesh case, not for BMesh), since the process can
be rather heavy with high poly meshes.
Also, bumping subversion, and fix mess in 2.70 versioning code.
Issue was, when requesting (building) lnors for a mesh that has
autosmooth disabled, one would expect to simply get vnors as lnors.
Until now, it wasn't the case, which was bad e.g. for normal projections
of loops in recent remap code (projecting along split loop normals
when you would expect projection along vertex normals...).
Also, removed the 'angle' parameter from RNA's `mesh.calc_normals_split`.
This should *always* use mesh settings (both autosmooth and smoothresh),
otherwise once again we'd get inconsistencies in some cases.
Will update fbx and obj addons too.
Happens because material setting now occurs in the derived mesh drawing
routine as it should. However that means that it also happens during
selection and that influenced the drawing state somehow.
In 2.72 this did not occur because material setting happened during draw
setting (skip or draw) instead of after the draw setting passed (so
selection would skip it by use another draw setting function). Of course
this violated design but worked.
Made it now so backbuffer selection does not enable materials (it's
redundant in those cases anyway).
This could be ported to a possible 'a' release but as is classic with
display code there may be some other places that it could backfire.
Tested fix with texture/vertex painting and selection which use
backbuffer for both subsurf and regular meshes and it seems to work OK.
The issue was originall caused by 2e8ba17 by removing necessery call
GPU_enable_material(). It was probably removed because in some cases
material was enabled after calling setDrawOptions.
That wasn't always a case for edit mode.
This is absolutely to be included to 2.73
Basically, our drawing code assumed we always use the edit mesh
materials, which can be different from the derived mesh
materials in modifiers doing overrides. We usually we want to use the
derived mesh when it is available instead.
There are two fixes here for both solid and textured mode. Unfortunately
the fixes do not help to make the display code less labyrinthian but I
expect this "should work" (tm and famous last words)
Solid mode fix is 95% from Bastien, thanks!
Yep, at last it's here!
There are a few minor issues remaining but development can go on in
master after discussion at blender institute.

Thanks to Sergey and Campbell for the extensive review and to the
countless artists that have given their input and reported issues during
development.
So, turned out after all we need a foreachmapped helper for loops as well... :/
CDDM and EBDM were reasonably simple, but I fought hours with CCGDM (subsurf) to find only a
bad working solution (see D478). So I fallback to a code similar to CDDM one.
Probably not nice for performances, but loops and subsurf are not matching well...

* Merely a re-implementation of core split algorithm for BMesh, taking advantage of topological data available.
* This code needs valid loop indices, so added BM_LOOP support to BM_mesh_elem_index_ensure() & co.

* Add a new calcLoopNormals function to DerivedMesh struct, and implement it for CDDM and CCGDM (subsurf).
EditDerivedBMesh (edit mode DM) only gets a dummy one in this commit.
* Add a tessellated version of CD_LOOPNORMAL layer (CD_TESSLOOPNORMAL), with relevant code to handle it
(tessellation, rna access, etc.).
* Change auto_smooth options of Mesh (angle now in radian internaly, and toggle is now used to enable/disable
split normals in DM creation process). Note BI render code is not touched here, hence its behavior regarding
this option is now incoherent, will be addressed in a separate commit.

Those derived meshes (used in Edit mode) were using simple sum of neighbor poly normals to get vertex normals,
while everywhere else in Blender we use weighted sum of such poly normals.

Reviewed and enhanced by Campbell, thanks!
since enough bmesh operations can also take advantage of direct index lookups on verts/edges/faces.
developers note:
- EDBM_index_arrays_init/ensure/free -> BM_mesh_elem_table_ensure/init/free
- EDBM_vert/edge/face_at_index -> BM_vert/edge/face_at_index
- EDBM_uv_element_map_create/free -> BM_uv_element_map_create/free
- ED_uv_element_get -> BM_uv_element_get
My previous fix for uninitialized texture coordinates was not working well,
and in fact there was a bigger issue with GLSL drawing and missing attributes
with immediate draw mode. Now it will explicitly pass zero rather than having
it use whatever value was set last.
Now cut lines detect vertices that they pass (almost) exactly over
and snap to them, to avoid making verts vert close to other ones.
Added radius arg to BKE_bmbvh_ray_cast so that can detect an obscuring
face when the ray might otherwise go exactly between two triangles.
Needed an isect_line_tri_epsilon function for similar reason.
Fixes last part of bug #35002. Other knife bugs still present but
getting this commit in now before continuing bug fixing.
this means in editmode with wire draw, face and vertex normals don't have to be calculated at all.
in most cases the normals are not used so add a flag that makes calculating them only for functions that need them.
also fix face normal calculation for CDDM, was using quad calculation for ngons too.
many modifiers were calculating normals, when those normals were ignored by the next modifier.
now flag normals as dirty and recalculate for modifiers that set use `dependsOnNormals()` callback.
Quick test on mesh with 12 modifiers (mostly build type), calculated normals 6 times, now it only runs once - so this will give some speedup too.
