The issue was that where_on_path uses a resampled curve to get the data
from the curve. This leads to disconnects between the curve the user
sees and the evaluated location data.
To fix this we simply use the actual curve data the user can see.
The older code needed a cleanup either way as there were hacks in other
parts of the code trying to work around some brokenness. This is now
fixed and we no longer need to clamp the evaluation range to 0-1 or make
helper functions to make it do what we actually want.

In `calc_curve_deform` a factor is calculated without checking if
the divisior is zero or close to zero. This patch adds the missing
checks and sets the factor to zero if the division shouldn't be
computed.

This is an improvement over 2.7x which converted edit-mesh to mesh
(CDDM) for all 3 modifiers.
Overall this increases performance in edit-mode by around 15-20%.
