Tweaked keymap for Graph Editor Ctrl-LMB so that the popup menu for displaying reports won't get dismissed immediately. Changing keymap here from KM_PRESS to KM_CLICK
* Keyframing operators now use the reports system for displaying all its error messages.
- The benefit of this is that users no longer need to check the console for error messages if keyframing fails.
- Unfortunately, reports are not currently viewable in any space/view in Blender, so...
* Added a temporary operator (UI_OT_reports_to_textblock), which can be accessed in the UI from the button which appears in place of the icon when more than one report exists. This dumps the current list of reports to a textblock "Recent Reports", from which they can be viewed.
This isn't really nice, but at least we now have a way to view these again, which makes debugging some things a pain.
* Bugfix #24606 - when trying to add keyframes to F-Curves with F-Modifiers already which alter the curve significantly enough that the keyframes will have no effect, there are now warnings which aim to alleviate any confusion.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
Disable projection painting for soften tools.
Also it looks like smear tools support projection in the code, so
enabled project paint menu for such tools
Here is a image of it in action:

What it monitors:
* VRAM used by textures created via bf_gpu and BL_Textures
What it does not monitor:
* VRAM used by the Blender ui
* VRAM used by 2d filters
* VRAM allocated by the user via KX_Scene.pre_draw and KX_Scene.pre_draw

Made some edits to the patch because only the first spline was getting the updates.
also added path functions for splines and spline points (request from ZanQdo so splines can be keyframed).
Very old bug: Material/Render: the "filter" option for transparent
absorption also works for alpha==0, but in that case another part
of render code just didn't add the faces in render list.
The main reason to have this is so renders can be scripted to write to a specific file without having to do annoying tricks like set a dummy start/end frame range, render an animation and work out the current frame image will be written to, then rename after rendering.
Also made some 'char *' args into 'const char *'
Using texture nodes for displacement crashes, a conflict between using
nodes in render and for displacement at same time. Code simply disables
texture nodes for displacement for now, until we have better handling for it.
(on our long todo)
- don't rename the image when saving (problematic if the image is used with linked libraries)
- file writing and path updating was duplicated for multilayer images.
It was called "map on length", but it actually makes the UV
values of curves/nurbs to become used as "Generated" texture
map input.
Sorry; this might break own local UI py script saves... :)
- Warn for armature deformed meshes which are scaled, these don't work quite the same as in blender, reported as [#24663].
- Use matrix.decompose() to convert a matrix to loc/rot/scale.
- get vert/edge/face lists for each mesh only once.
- faster euler rad -> deg conversion function.
- incorrect range check broke ZYX euler rotations, use MIN/MAX constants so this doesn't happen again.
- BGE Armature PyAPI also wasn't using correct min/max with rotation modes.
- clamp on file read rather then when calling the rotation functions, so developers don't use invalid args without realizing it.
- added assert() checks for debug builds so invalid axis constants don't slip through.
Doing F1-load a lot of times on same .blend could crash.
Janne karhu provided a potential fix, which is good to add
anyway. Will ask him to verify too.
Added XXX warning for these lines, after filesel exec no
context variables should be re-used. Is for later investigation.
Added convenience function to operators, 'as_keywords()', so operator settings can be passed directly to a function as keyword arguments.
The problem in this case was that dictionary access to operator properties was not returning rna-property defaults, so as_keywords() ensures all defaults are set.

When working with very heavy scenes Blender can seem to 'hang' (not responding). Key events that happen
during this period may get lost, especially for modifier keys.
Adding extra handling to account for these situations.
Found and fixed a few problems here, but strangely I don't recall seeing any of these a few months ago when this conversion (probably last) worked well ...

Instead of running vcredist, which can fail when installing as normal user, have the DLLs
like our zip distribution bundled already inside install dir.
