Campbell Barton 417aeb935a patch [#18950] Get/set bone and type of drivers
by Alberto Torres Ruiz (dithi) 

--- quoting the patch submission
This patchs adds the properties IpoCurve.driverBone and IpoCurve.driverBone2 and modifies IpoCurve.driverChannel to
allow OB_ROT_DIFF.

It sets the driver type to pose if IpoCurve.driverBone is not empty or None. Otherwise the driver type is set to
object.

Attached is the patch (with python doc) and an example .blend.

It also fixes the confusing description of IpoCurve.driver

# Blender.IpoCurve module and the IpoCurve PyType object
"""
The Blender.IpoCurve submodule
B{New}:
- IpoCurves supports the operator [], which accesses the value of
curves at a given time.
This module provides access to the IpoCurve data in Blender. An Ipo is
composed of several IpoCurves, and an IpoCurve are composed of several
BezTriples.
@warning: Ipo curves store euler rotations as degrees/10.0 so 180.0 would be 18.0
Example::
import Blender
ipo = Blender.Ipo.Get('ObIpo') # retrieves an Ipo object
ipo.name = 'ipo1' # change the Ipo's name
icu = ipo[Blender.Ipo.OB_LOCX] # request X Location Ipo curve object
if icu != None and len(icu.bezierPoints) > 0: # if curve exists and has BezTriple points
val = icu[2.5] # get the curve's value at time 2.5
@type ExtendTypes: readonly dictionary
@var ExtendTypes: The available IpoCurve extend types.
- CONST - curve is constant beyond first and last knots
- EXTRAP - curve maintains same slope beyond first and last knots
- CYCLIC - curve values repeat beyond first and last knots
- CYCLIC_EXTRAP - curve values repeat beyond first and last knots,
but while retaining continuity
@type InterpTypes: readonly dictionary
@var InterpTypes: The available IpoCurve interpolation types.
- CONST - curve remains constant from current BezTriple knot
- LINEAR - curve is linearly interpolated between adjacent knots
- BEZIER - curve is interpolated by a Bezier curve between adjacent knots

The IpoCurve object
===================
This object gives access to generic data from all Ipo curves objects
in Blender.
Important Notes for Rotation Ipo Curves:\n
For the rotation Ipo curves, the y values for points are in units of 10
degrees. For example, 45.0 degrees is stored as 4.50 degrees. These are the
same numbers you see in the Transform Properties pop-up menu ( NKey ) in
the IPO Curve Editor window. Positive rotations are in a counter-clockwise
direction, following the standard convention.
@ivar driver: Status of the driver. 1= object or armature/bone driver, 2= python expression, 0= no driver
@type driver: int
@ivar driverObject: Object used to drive the Ipo curve.
@type driverObject: Blender Object or None
@ivar driverBone: Name of the armature bone used to drive the Ipo curve.
If empty or None, sets driver type to object, otherwise sets driver type to pose. [0 - 31 chars]
@type driverBone: string or None
@ivar driverBone2: Name of the second bone used to drive the Ipo curve.
Only to be used with ROT_DIFF channel. [0 - 31 chars]
@type driverBone2: string or None
@ivar driverExpression: Python expression used to drive the Ipo curve. [0 - 127 chars]
@type driverExpression: string
@ivar sel: The selection state of this curve.
@type sel: bool
@ivar driverChannel: Object channel used to drive the Ipo curve.
Use module constants: IpoCurve.LOC_X, IpoCurve.LOC_Y, IpoCurve.LOC_Z,
IpoCurve.ROT_X, IpoCurve.ROT_Y, IpoCurve.ROT_Z, IpoCurve.SIZE_X,
IpoCurve.SIZE_Y, IpoCurve.SIZE_Z, IpoCurve.ROT_DIFF (this last one is only for pose type drivers)

B{Note}: Cyclic Ipo curves never reach the end value. If the first and
last bezier points do not have the same y coordinate, the value of the
curve when it "cycles" is that of the first point. If a user wants to
get the value of the final curve point, read the final point from the
curve::
