Sybren A. Stüvel 08012ebeec Disable Constraint and Keep Transform
A 'Disable and Keep Transform' button for constraints was added. This
allows animators to disable a constraint without moving the constrained
object/bone, making it easier to toggle constriants on and off without
any visual consequence. Typical usage would be a character picking up an
object (enable 'Copy Transform' constraint) and placing it somewhere
else (disable the constraint).

Note that there could still be movement when there are muliple
constraints active. For example, when using this constraint stack

- #1: Copy Transform from Empty.001
- #2: Copy Rotation from Empty.002

and disabling constraint #2, constraint #1 is still active and will
still modify the visual transform of the object. According to our
in-house animators, this is expected behaviour.
