The Nearest Surface Point shrink method, while fast, is neither smooth nor continuous: as the source point moves, the projected point can both stop and jump. This causes distortions in the deformation of the shrinkwrap modifier, and the motion of an animated object with a shrinkwrap constraint. This patch implements a new mode, which, instead of using the simple nearest point search, iteratively solves an equation for each triangle to find a point which has its interpolated normal point to or from the original vertex. Non-manifold boundary edges are treated as infinitely thin cylinders that cast normals in all perpendicular directions. Since this is useful for the constraint, and having multiple objects with constraints targeting the same guide mesh is a quite reasonable use case, rather than calculating the mesh boundary edge data over and over again, it is precomputed and cached in the mesh.
