Steps to reproduce were: Toggle fullscreen->F12->F3->ESC 2x->3D View
changed to Image Editor and didn't change back.
Actually it doesn't work 100% as wanted since it exits the fullscreen
when pressing ESC to exit Image Editor but it's hard to support all
cases with such a weird spaghetti code.
This commit mainly:
* Exposes PreviewImage struct in RNA, including ways for user to set images data.
* Adds a new kind of PreviewImage, using a file path and IMB_thumb to get image.
* Adds a new kind of custom icon using PreviewImage, unrelated to ID previews system.
* Adds a python API (utils.previews) to allow python scripts to access those custom previews/icons.
Note that loading image from files' thumbnails is done when needed (deferred loading), not
when defining the custom preview/icon.
WARNING: for release addons who would want to use this, please keep it to a strict minimum, really needed level.
We do not want our UI to explode under hundreds of different flashy icons!

file, since we need the updated times and frames.
This was lost during stamp code refactoring. The refactoring moved the
stamp when render is initialized so we would be guaranteed to have
correct cameras even when saving render stills at a later time (and even
if cameras were changed). For regular render this would work since
render init takes care of stamp, but for openGL rendering we need to do
this manually.
Still not 100% correct, does not apply multiview cameras to metadata
Issue was caused by de-referencing NULL pointer, rres did not have any
views because nothing was rendered yet.
Needs more closer look about where else such a de-reference could happen.
Originally I wanted to get rid of RenderResult->rect* entirely, but it's
convenient to have for temporary structs.
This patch makes sure they are used only when really needed, which
should help clearing the code out.
(they are needed when using RE_AcquireResultImage() - which produces a
RenderResult with no RenderView)

This approach gets rid of iuser->pass for good.
Also, I'm commenting out the pass increase/decrease. This was broken
since multiview. I will fix it later (before 2.75), but I didn't want to
get this patch mangled with that fix.
Thanks Sergey Sharybin for the review and feedbacks.

Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

The issue has been here since we changed drawing code for meshes to use
vertex arrays instead of immediate mode when VBO was off. Basically we
should now always invalidate the GPU objects regardless of the VBO
setting in the preferences.
The bug has been there since 2.73 at least, but what made it apparent
now is that new version resets preferences and as an extension the VBO
flag.
Should be included in final 2.74 release
range and extra frames.
Issue here is that the movie backend would unconditionally use the start
frame of the scene instead of the preview frame. Solved by passing an
explicit "preview" argument.
Strictly speaking, the preview argument is part of the renderdata
struct, that is also passed to the code, but when rendering the final
result we want to unconditionally render the full range regardless of
the preview setting of the render structure.
However, OpenGL rendering does use the preview range so we need to
account for that when making those exports.
This is also a nice chance to correct the filenames, which still used
the full range.
Issue was caused by b62c2a9 and root of it goes to the fact that text
info is stored in the "main" scene, not the currently rendering one.
This is a bit annoying but making it so text and result are coming
from the same scene is a bit dangerous to do now. Will re-visit this
change after the release and see if it might be done in a more clear
fashion.
Show World will now influence if world is rendered in opengl rendering.
This is a little undefined according to blender history, since sky used
to always be drawn when offscreen rendering, as if "Only Render" was
ticked. Since if we don't draw sky in that case there's no valid color
really (and using theme colors is not so nice) we just draw transparent
background.
This commit introduces a few ready made effects for the 3D viewport
and OpenGL rendering.
Included effects are Depth of Field, accessible from camera view
and screen space ambient occlusion. Those effects can be turned on and
tweaked from the shading panel in the 3D viewport.
Off screen rendering will use the settings of the current camera.

Adds support for stacked fullscreens. This basically means, if a user opens a
temporary fullscreen mode, such as the File Browser or the Image Editor render
view, from a different fullscreen, the "Back to Previous" function or the other
ways to escape those temporary fullscreens don't return to the split screen
layout but to the previous fullscreen he has been in.
I already committed something similar (f7e844570f) but that was only
supposed as a fix, it didn't work for the "Back to Previous" operator and the
implementation wasn't really reusable. This one looks a bit nicer + makes some
older hacks unnecessary :)
This time, it's a dedicated operator user has to run before saving the file.
And it recursively check all IDs linked from each scene, therefore rendering
materials etc. previews using a scene they are used in.
Note the renderengine issue is not completely addressed this way
(existing code for icon previews seems to ignore completely other engines,
and IDs not linked anywhere (fake-user ones) will be rendered with current scene's engine
as fallback, also you can get a material linked to an hidden object in a scene, etc.).
