This way it is possible to have viewport simplification bumped all the way up,
making viewport really responsive but still have final render to use highest
subdivision possible.

We can now scale from 32px up to 256px (default has been upgraded to 128px).
Thumbnails are now generated as 'large', i.e. 256px.
Previews are scaled up if necessary, unlike icons (for folders or files without preview images).
Note that .blend thumbnails themselves remain in 128px for now (they are embeded in .blend files,
not quite sure we want to make them four times bigger...).
Patch by DMS (Yaron Dames), with final edits by myself.

This one was nasty, issue comes with temp/nofree CD layers that get 'removed on the fly'
from saved mesh CDData. Since mesh struct itself was written before that cleanup, it would
still have the old, invalid number of layers. That would lead to a buffer overflow when
loading data later (odd you had to do this twice (i.e. have 2 'ghost' layers) to get the crash).
New code prevents that by always making a copy of the mesh (we were already doing that mostly
anyway, since we were saving without tessfaces), copying (by ref of course) in it cddata,
and then writing mesh struct. Makes code a bit more verbose, but... it works!
There should be no functional changes visible from this change, but this commit
should make it easier to code tools which need to check on tweeakmode status,
by making it easier to figure out which NLA Track contains the strip which
owned the action being edited. (The strip is already saved, so this commit just
adds the track alongside it).
For now there is no version patch for this. The worst that happens is that an
extra refresh is needed in the NLA editor to get these to show up.
The issue was caused by phase being limited from 0 to 1, which gave only
0..M_PI distribution which is not good enough for good randomness.
Now the phase is being randomized across full 0..2*M_PI range.
stupidity casting from Scene to Editing in RNA)
Move versioning for proxy storage to multiview version check (not really
correct but it was orphaned before and it doesn't hurt either).

Scene Render Views
* Ability to have an arbitrary number of views in the scene
Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

Reported by formerly Old_Demon on blenderartists.
Apparently this caused old files to lose their links to material sockets
(noob own mistake from inexperience with node system).
This should either be included in release with version checking being
set to version 2.73 and subversion 10, without tweaking the
BKE_blender.h file
OR
340b76b42c should be reverted for this
release.
Thanks to Lukas for checking this out.
This change introduces a new hysteresis parameter that it will be added
or subtracted to/from the LOD distance to avoid popping when a LOD
object moves close to the LOD transition continuously.
Then, we have the following:
- a new LOD Hysteresis setting per scene (default 10%) which is located
in Scene context --> Level of Detail panel. This scene parameter also
will active/deactive the scene hysteresis.
- and a new LOD Hysteresis setting per object (default 10%) which is
located in Object context --> Levels of Detail panel. The LOD hysteresis
setting per object (if active) will overwrite the hysteresis setting per
scene value.
For the new blends: the hysteresis setting per scene would be active by
default and the per object would be inactive by default.
For the old blends: both hysteresis settings (per scene and per object)
would be inactive by default. A quick way to take advantage of this
feature for old blends would be to activate the hysteresis parameter in
the scene context -> Level of Detail panel

This patch avoids looping over bhead's linked list when looking up values by name.
Used during appaned and library loading.
Gives noticeable overall speedup loading files that used libraries. (nearly 2x on some Mango files)
screen.
Apparently the screen on the given file did not have a scene attached.
Not sure how this is possible exactly, but for now just guard against it
at load time by assigning default scene in that case.
New Lock Z velocity parameter was added. This parameter avoid the micro-jumping.
By default it is actived except when you load an old file that it is deactived to keep former behaviour.
Additionally it was solved another issue related with the acceleration: That is the acceleration value was not taked into account and we had always the maximum linear velocity from the beginning of movement. Now the acceleration is taken into account until we reach the maximum velocity.
When you load an old file, the acceleration value is set to the maximum range (1000.f). This way we simulate a maximum velocity constant from the beginning of movement (former behaviour).
