Simply add an option to render settings to save an EXR cache,
just when the render is finished. Also changed RE_ReadRenderResult() to read
cache instead of temp sample files (those are fully volatile now anyway).
Path to save cached render results is an UserPreferences setting.
Also added 'Reload render' feature to the Image Editor (so one can now re-open a blend,
and in an Image Editor hit ctrl-R to (try to) reload last render from cache).

Most weight tools also work in edit mode.
This change exposes all applicable tools
within a separate weight tool panel

So! First, frame for absolute shape keys: never allow a new key to have the same pos as an
existing one (this does not make sense). This way, the two workflows are possible (create
all keys and then animate ctime, or animate ctime and then create keys where you need them).
Also, fixed UIList for shapekeys, the "absolute" test was wrong, and better to show frame
value, even though not editable, than nothing in case of absolute keys.
And finally, add getter to RNA 'frame' readonly value, so that we output real frame values,
and not dummy internal ones (which are /100) in our API.
as duplicators.
This property was always hidden in the UI for empties and cameras. It
doesn't make sense for the objects themselves (they are wires-only), but
also gets inherited by duplis. Now show it greyed out if not used, but
make it available for duplicators.
Not that happy with this, but this Item panel is a bit stupid, and we could add more
useful settings as well. So better get a design decision first, here.
This operator is used to make sure that if/when you have multiple strips
using the same action, if you select these and run this operator, each
strip will be given its own copy of the action. This is useful if you
decide later that you want to start using an existing action as a base.
NOTE: This does not recursively go inside meta's, so care is still advised
in that case.
This commit changes the default strip duplication behaviour (Shift-D) so that it will
create a copy of whatever action it uses. Previously, it was very hard, if not impossible
in some cases to create a new copy of an action to start working on in the NLA.
If you want the old behaviour, you'll need to use ALt-D (Linked Duplicates).
(Note: Although the new Shift-D may not be so optimal in all cases, I've decided to go
with this version since it aligns better with the way this works for objects. Doing the
opposite for NLA would just have added to the confusion)
This adds some view ratios in the video sequencer menu, based (copied) on the UV/Image Editor. It also fixes the inverted ratio issue reported in the same task.

Made the timeline option to only show keyframes from selected channels/data be a
per-scene setting instead of the per-timeline option it was previously. This makes
it easier for animators working on rigs with multiple bones (especially during the
polishing phase), since now the timeline and jump to keyframe operators use the same
setting to decide which subset of keyframes they need to consider.
By default, this option is enabled by default.
TODO: Extend this to the keyframe status shading on the active object name in the 3D view?
In fact, armature layers operators (set layers, and show all) were kind of messy and broken
in Edit mode (Select layers had two different operators for Pose and Edit modes, both
using the same funcs that could only work in Pose mode, Show All was supposed to be
used in both modes but again, its exec code could only work in Pose one).
Fixed that by:
* Using only one op for each task, for both modes (with adapted poll func).
* Replacing 'object from context' access by an helper that returns the right Armature
object in both Edit and Pose modes.
Making both keymap and menu values the same, and adding a (debug only) check in
IDP_EqualsProperties_ex() warning when comparing two floats with nearly the same value.
* The button icon for jumping to the Render Layers tab of the Properties context is
now RENDERLAYERS. Previous icon BUTS was too general.
* Thickness position options are grayed out if not applicable. These options are applied
only when plain chaining is used with the Same Object option enabled.
Also refactor:
- Material property UI related to shadows
- Preparation of OR-ed mode flags (ma->mode_l) of render materials

Toggle buttons are now placed to the left of those labels separating sets of line style
options, so as to save some space (in line with the new UI elements added in the
commit f60a66f417).
Line styles now have a set of new options for rearranging the stacking order of lines.
This gives artists more control to determine which lines should be drawn on top of others.
Two available sort keys are the distance from camera and curvilinear 2D length.
Since the distance of a line from camera may vary over vertices, another option called
integration type is used to compute the sort key for a line from the values computed at
individual vertices. Available integration types are MEAN, MIN, MAX, FIRST and LAST
(see the tool tips for more detail).
This commit makes it so CameraIntrinsics is no longer hardcoded
to use the traditional polynomial radial distortion model. Currently
the distortion code has generic logic which is shared between
different distortion models, but had no other models until now.
This moves everything specific to the polynomial radial distortion
to a subclass PolynomialDistortionCameraIntrinsics(), and adds a
new division distortion model suitable for cameras such as the
GoPro which have much stronger distortion due to their fisheye lens.
This also cleans up the internal API of CameraIntrinsics to make
it easier to understand and reduces old C-style code.
New distortion model is available in the Lens panel of MCE.
- Polynomial is the old well-known model
- Division is the new one which s intended to deal better with huge
distortion.
Coefficients of this model works independent from each other
and for division model one probably want to have positive values
to have a barrel distortion.
* 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.

There is no good solution here, since RNA props can only have one type/unit.
Tried to find the less worse one - have different RNA props for same DNA value
(a bit like the angle/length for camera lens).
Also fixed two other issues with Transform conctraint:
* Angle were still in degrees (yes, another backward-compatibility breacking).
* Scale was absolute, unlike loc/rot.
Also cleaned up a bit the code, replaced some magic numbers by proper enums, ...
Now they do, to make it harder to accidentally press them and lose work.
