* gameplayer is now probably not going to build without PNG turned ON.
To fix that it would be necessary to use #ifndef NOPNG around the GPC_Canvas::MakeScreenShot.
Since I don't this function it's working in 2.5 yet it's better to wait for that before doing it.

When new base wasn't created in convert_exec() function. BASACT will set to NULL, which is not convenient. For example,
u can't enter edit mode after converting curve to mesh. Now BASACT changes only if base for active object was changed.
Originally we had 2DFilters (m_filtermanager) stored in RenderTools. That way filters were stored globally and were being called once per each scene. This was producing two big problems: (1) performance and (2) flexibility of use.
(1) Performance - To run the filters 2X == 2X slower
(2) flexibility of use - Very often we want the filter in the scene but not in the UI for example.
For those reasons I believe that 2DFilters with multiple scenes was very useless or unpredictable. I hope they work fine now.
To make it work as before (2.4) you can simply recreate the 2dfilter actuators across the scenes.

Imagine that we have:
(a) Main Scene
(b) Overlay Scene
in Main Scene the Z Buffer and RGB will be from the main scene.
in Overlay Scene the Z Buffer will be from the Overlay Scene and the RBG buffer is from both [(a + 2D Filter) + b].
So in pseudo code if we have a,b,c,d,e scenes we have: (2DFilterE(2DFilterD(2DFilterC(2DFilterB(2DFilterA(a) + b) + c) + d) + e)
Reports (i.e. 'info' or 'errors') are now shown in the info header in place of the scene statistics if the last executed operator had some, with this info disappearing again once another operator is run (to show scene statistics again).
For example, this means that info such as the the number of verts merged, or whether a Keying Set successfully inserted keyframes, etc. is now shown again somewhere, and that this is done in a non-blocking manner.
The current implementation is still a bit crude (i.e. lacking fancy polish), but is at least barebones functional. The todos...
* When more than 1 report message is generated by the last operator, there is currently a display of the number of reports. In future, it would be nice to be able to add a button beside this or make the label clickable with appropriate text indicating this (commented out atm) to show popup menu of all the reports...
* There could probably be some kind of coloured backdrop behind the text. Currently using standard box, but that has padding problems, and lacks visual interest.
* Timer based fade out/disappear?
rendering.
RE_BlenderFrame() and RE_BlenderAnim() are Blender's internal
top-level rendering API functions for a single frame and a series of
frames, respectively. These functions rely on global variables to
keep render pipeline states. Freestyle's stroke rendering was also
using RE_BlenderFrame to render a temporary scene of stroke meshes.
These nested calls of the top-level rendering API functions were
causing broken render pipeline states and eventually led to a crash.
This commit is intended to fix the issue, by introducing an rendering
API function RE_RenderFreestyleStrokes specifically used for stroke
rendering in Freestyle. The new function does not do anything with
regard to the global variables in the rendering API implementation.
Old temp-pointers for File Browser instances were not being cleared on file load, resulting in crashes when trying to free temp screen layouts that contained file browser instance data.
Transform channel drivers for bones in 'localspace' was using the wrong matrix when getting the transforms. I had been assuming that pchan->chan_mat always contained only the matrix-ised transform values stored in the pchan (which is true while constraints are being evaluated, but not afterwards).
Changes:
- Added a new function to calculate this matrix instead of directly writing it on the pchan->chan_matrix field.
- Also, made the normalisation of the quaternion values during this process be done on a temp var instead of on the stored value. This was a constant source of confusion in the past, so let's see if we can do without it now :)
Unrelated to this commit, I've also fixed a compiler warning with previous commit that I missed (missing include).
use float comparison from the "Ever Faster Float Comparisons" paper, tested with random values as well as random values converted to ints (where this existing code would fail).
- disable running scripts automatically
- set sequencer image preview
- added a 3D viewport in the python script screen & selected 'Text' in the next editor.
- enable stamp rendertime by default. (stamp its self is disabled)
- set the stamp font size to 12 (was 8, too small)
also set the default font size to 12 for new scenes.
