Added an utility function which performs vertex split based on the loop
normal so now backing API matches to what's happening in Cycles and BI
in terms of autosplit.

General idea is to avoid actual calculation from property update()
callback and tag things for update later instead.
That said, pose constraint flags are now tagged for update and
handled as a part of object update. In the new depsgraph it'll
be a nice dedicated operation node.
Also avoid updating disabled flags for all the modifiers. This
part of the path is not totally optimal since it'll still need
to iterate over bones in order to get pchan, but to optimize it
further would be nice to find a way to avoid pchan requirement
all together.

This patch would reassign the relative of all keyblocks to the relative
of the deleted keyblock. And it fixes the misalignement of the index values
after the keyblock is deleted.

The idea is pretty simple: instead of making temporary copy of all the
related custom data layers just pass the ownership from the DM to the
mesh.
This is really handy in cases when you've got DM which you need to
convert to Mesh datablock and wouldn't need that DM after conversion
anyway.
Foe example, render database conversion, exporters and even Modifier
Apply will benefit from this option.

internal api Consistency.
For the records, I suspect there are still a few cases of this. I found
this by chance (moving an object to a different layer), and I ran into
the previous one (fixed by Campbell) as well (by adding a cube).
Anyways, since it only happens when building with crash on asserts is
not a big issue. But by the time we change RNA to use bool instead of
int it would be nice to do a call for test to prevent those breaks.
Titles says everything, just two notes:
* We have to actually transfer plain *normals*, not 'compressed' clnors,
so had to add pre/post process to transfer to make the conversions.
* Also added interpolation and advanced copy/mixing to CD_NORMAL, for same reasons.
For now, did most of the changes in menu entries (i.e. py space UI scripts).
Note we do not get 100% same results as previously, but current situation is
globally better than previous one, though the whole system to retrieve shortcuts
remains a bit weak...
Mesh stores its dvert in a specific pointer too, in addition of regular CD layer...
That whole vgroup handling is really breaking apart the 'universality' of CD system. :(
Also added some DAG and WM updates in operators...
We can now use 'generic' data transfer instead.
Note new one is not an exact replacement, it should be able to do
everyting old op could do though, and more.
Needed to replace weight transfer modifier in WeightPaint mode...
Note this is not exposed to users in UI, shall remain technical intern
parameter imho. Esp. since behavior when several sources is a bit 'random'
(merely uses each source in selection order...).
Also, this correct a bug, where 'lib' linked objects/meshes could not be used
as source...
Not much to add, modifier uses same code as operator basically, only key difference
is that modifier will never create data layers itself, you have to use dedicated operator
for that.
This add code needed to map a CD data layout from source mesh towards destination one,
and code needed to actually transfer data, using BKE's mesh remap generated data.
This allows to transfer most CD layers (vgroups, vcols, uvs...) as well as fake, boolean ones
(like smooth/sharp edges/faces, etc.). Some types are not yet transferable, mainly
shape keys, this is known TODO.
Data transfer can also use some advanced mixing in some cases (mostly, vgroups and vcols).
Notes:
* New transfer operators transfer data from active object towards selected ones.
* Modifier will be committed separately.
* Old weight transfer code (for vgroups) is kept for now, mostly because it is the only
usable one in weightpaint mode (it transfers from selected object to active one,
this is not sensible in Object mode, but needed in WeightPaint one). This will be addressed soon.
Again, heavily reviewed and enhanced by Campbell, thanks!
* Same issue as T42760 was also reproducible in some cases in 3DView.
* You got an error message about missing RNA prop in some drop-called operators.
* You could not drop a movie file in nodes, (some cases of) 3DView, nor ImageEditor.
