now you can still use column access
previously...
mat[2] = 1, 2, 3
needed to be converted into...
mat[0][2] = 1
mat[1][2] = 2
mat[2][2] = 3
but with column access you can do...
mat.col[2] = 1, 2, 3
Having 'row' attribute is a bit redundant since direct indexing on a matrix uses row but included for completeness.
- rename 'bcycles' --> '_cycles', since this is the python convention when a py module uses a C module internally.
- use macros for returning None
- make with_osl an attribute rather then a function.
- changes methods METH_VARARGS --> METH_O when single args are used.
this is a part of patch 29534, being applied separately
from patch [#29534] Change Matrix Representation and Access in Python to Conform with Standard Notation
by Andrew Hale (trumanblending)
* 1. Resize 4x4, code was ridiculously complex (cleanup only)
* 2. matrix * matrix checking for compatibility wasn't working right (bug in last release)
* 3. fix for result size for matrix * vector if matrix is 4x4 and vector size 3 (bug in recent patch)
* 4. fix for result size vector * matrix if matrix is 4x4 and vector size 3 (bug in recent patch)
also add an assert so invalid index access will raise an error in debug mode, without this it was quite easy to access invalid memory without meaning to.
no functional change.

* Text from the submission *
This patch adds the ability to use arbitrary sized vectors from mathutils.
Currently vectors are only of size 2, 3 or 4 since they are generally restricted
to geometric applications. However, we can use arbitrary sized vectors for
efficient calculations and data manipulation.
Talked with Brecht and Campbell and they both agreed that bpy.types should match bpy.props
In the ideal world we would rename bpy.props to BooleanProperty. This would break scripts though. So we go for a compromise and at least have some consistency.
"The Blender Foundation also sells licenses for use in proprietary software under the Blender Licens"
also remove NaN references from files that have been added since blender went opensource.

Tracker description
*******************
The current python noise module included with Blender has yet to be updated to the new Py API. This patch does so, with the following major points:
- The noise module has now been moved to a submodule of mathutils, it can be accessed by mathutils.noise. It was moved from it's own module as it will now return mathutils types and also have greater visibility to the user.
- All functions which return vectors will now return mathutils.Vector types to be consistent with the rest of the API. Previously (x, y, z) tuples were returned.
- A different implementation of random_unit_vector is now used, this allows 2D, 3D and 4D vectors to be returned. Previously only 3D was possible.
- Some function names have been changed to remove ambiguities and make naming consistent within the module. noise.vector is now noise.noise_vector and noise.vl_vector is now noise.variable_lacunarity
- Doc strings have been updated to be compatible with auto docs.
- Code style and internal naming has been changed to match the conventions in other mathutils code.
Thanks,
Andrew
