Add precision mode to radial operator by keeping the shift key pressed.
Precision mode works by checking difference between absolute window
coordinates and the point where shift was pressed and adding those to
the distance between that point and the radial center. This allows
bigger negative/positive range than using a strict radial scheme.
This commit merges the code in the pie-menu branch.
As per decisions taken the last few days, there are no pie menus
included and there will be an official add-on including overrides of
some keys with pie menus. However, people will now be able to use the
new code in python.

Thanks:
Campbell Barton, Dalai Felinto and Ton Roosendaal for the code review
and design comments
Jonathan Williamson, Pawel Lyczkowski, Pablo Vazquez among others for
suggestions during the development.
Special Thanks to Sean Olson, for his support, suggestions, testing and
merciless bugging so that I would finish the pie menu code. Without him
we wouldn't be here. Also to the rest of the developers of the original
python add-on, Patrick Moore and Dan Eicher and finally to Matt Ebb, who
did the research and first implementation and whose code I used to get
started.
Rename UI_init_userdef_factory to BLO_update_defaults_userpref_blend
This closely matches BLO_update_defaults_startup_blend so makes sense for them to be together.
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.
Current temporary data of Blender suffers one major issue - default 'temp' dir on Windows is never
automatically cleaned up, and can end being quite big when used by Blender, especially when we have
to store per-process data (using getpid() in file names).
To address this, this patch:
* Divides tempdir paths in two, one for 'base' temp dir (the same as previous unique tempdir path),
the other is a mkdtemp-generated sub-dir, specific to each Blender instance.
* Only uses base tempdir when we need some shallow persistance accross Blender sessions - and we always
reuse the same filename (quit.blend...) or generate small file (crash reports...).
* Uses temp sub-dir for heavy files like pointcache or renderEXRs (Save Buffer option).
* Erases temp sub-dir on quit or crash.
To get this working it also adds a working 'recursive delete' to BLI_delete() under Windows.
Note that, as in current code, the 'recover render result' hack-feature that was possible
with SaveBuffer option is still removed. A real renderresult cache feature will be added
soon, though.

This is needed for popups to chance state once activated,
currently it makes use of operators `check` callback, after values are modified,
as the file selector does already.
We need to 'reset' mouse coordinates to the one it was when the gesture handling started,
else org coords are where the tweak event is created, which gives a noticeable gap
(several pixels) and unwanted behavior like the one retported about file box selection.
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).

View2D had some inconsistencies making it error prone in some cases.
- Inconstant checking for NULL x/y args.
Disallow NULL args for x/y destination pointers, instead add:
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_x/y
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_x/y
- '_no_clip' suffix wasn't always used for non-clipping conversion,
switch it around and use a '_clip' suffix for all funcs that clip.
- UI_view2d_text_cache_add now clips before adding cache.
- '_clip' funcs return a bool to quickly check if its in the view.
- add conversion for rectangles, since this is a common task:
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_rcti
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_rctf
