Bring back shading in texture painting.
This works now but it uses 3 texture units instead of two. Most GPUs of
DirectX 8 (OpenGL 1.4 should cover that) functionality even should have
those, but some old GPUs might not work with that. In any case, I hope
we will be moving to OpenGL 2.1 requirement soon anyway where 4-8
texture units are usually the norm.
Include explicit control for texturing:
This commit introduces a painting mode option, available in
the slots panel. The default value "Material" will create slots from the
blender material, same as just merged from the paint branch.
The new option "Image", will use an explicit image field that artists can use
to select the image to paint on. This will should allow painting regardless
of the renderer used or for use in modifiers.
There were a few issues to fix here:
* We did not really unpremultiply float image dabs prior to sending them
to the GPU. That made float and byte image result different in texture
painting and undoing could change the result.
* To make textures nicely composited over the mesh, I used decal mode in
OpenGL texture environment for the texture unit. This uses the texture's
alpha channel with a nice over operator.
* Texture creation used to override the alpha setting due to the display
restrictions. Not so anymore, people can now create transparent byte
images.
Also, made alpha zero default for new textures now, since it has such a
nice effect here.
This commit merges the code in the pie-menu branch.
As per decisions taken the last few days, there are no pie menus
included and there will be an official add-on including overrides of
some keys with pie menus. However, people will now be able to use the
new code in python.

Thanks:
Campbell Barton, Dalai Felinto and Ton Roosendaal for the code review
and design comments
Jonathan Williamson, Pawel Lyczkowski, Pablo Vazquez among others for
suggestions during the development.
Special Thanks to Sean Olson, for his support, suggestions, testing and
merciless bugging so that I would finish the pie menu code. Without him
we wouldn't be here. Also to the rest of the developers of the original
python add-on, Patrick Moore and Dan Eicher and finally to Matt Ebb, who
did the research and first implementation and whose code I used to get
started.
The issue was caused by the render engine loading edit mesh, which re-allocates
mesh array which might be referenced by other object's derived meshed.
Worst thing about this is that updating render engine happens from the end of
scene update function, after all the objects are updated and so. This is needed
so render engine gets the update objects which is correct.
The only proper way to solve the issue is to make it so viewport engine does not
leave objects in inconsistent state, meaning nobody will reference to freed data.
In order to reach this we do edit mesh loading before running objects update so
all the objects which uses that mesh will have proper references in the derived
mesh.
This also solves old creepyness which happened before when having single object
in edit mode. tweaking it will calculate derived mesh as a part of scene update,
then this derived mesh will be freed by edit mesh loading and viewport will be
creating derived mesh again.
Now render engine is expected to do nothing with meshes which are in edit mode,
but they still need to load edit data for non0meshes. It's not really easy to
do from the BKE level because needed functions are implemented in the editor.
Thanks Campbell for the review!

If the active image node contributes to the final material shader
(meaning it's either directly or indirectly connected to an Output Node)
the user will receive an alert about circular dependency.
Similar to what we do for Blender internal the baking will still happen,
but the user will receive the alert which should prevent the image
saving to happen if the result was not intentional.

This patch creates an interface for selection mechanisms in opengl. This
makes it possible to switch between occlusion query based or select
rendermode based selection transparently.
This is really useful on graphics drivers that do not accelerate the
select rendermode path (some ATI cards are notorious for this, and the
new path is used by default there), since occlusion queries are always
hardware accelerated due to their use in games.
The option can be found under system - selection. Auto just enables
occlusion queries for ATI users while the rest of the options enforce
one of the two methods always.
There is just one known change, previous code enforced nearest bone to
always get selected, even when mouse selecting near the same position, I
couldn't replicate the behaviour though.
patch by me with edits and review by Campbell.
Thanks!
Calling `glLoadName()` was possible with '-1' value (65535 actually), in `draw_pose_bones()`...
Note I think bug exists since ages (at least, seems to be already present in 2008
when drawarmature.c was added in repo)!
Odd behavior reported (issue only affected objects once parented to the armature) was
due to ordering stuff, since only objects drawn *after* the armature were affected.
Yep, at last it's here!
There are a few minor issues remaining but development can go on in
master after discussion at blender institute.

Thanks to Sergey and Campbell for the extensive review and to the
countless artists that have given their input and reported issues during
development.
Particles could completely cancel Hide flag! 'Accumulative' bool is not a really good idea here,
hide (or render-hide) are some kind of 'absolute' no-go.
Found another issue in that area, duplicated objects would still show in 'render override' mode,
when object was render-disabled.
Hopefully things are better now.
correctly.
Problem was that object layers are defined by duplis as the top-level
duplicator layers. This happens //during// the duplilist construction,
which breaks group layer checks for subsequent instances and hides them.
Now the duplilist generators leave Object DNA untouched, the
modification of layers for drawing, rendering, etc. happens afterward
in the duplilist_apply/restore functions, as a kind of second pass.
* Allows drag and place workflow in addition to click workflow
* Should be compatible with future use of calling operator and placing
instead of left-clicking
Probably a leftover from old code, I don't think this invoke usage of VIEW3D_OT_background_image_add
was actually reachable anywhere from the UI, but managed to get it working from py, without increasing
user count...
Objects were hidden in "only render" mode if they were duplicators. This is correct in general, but for particles should be disabled by the "show emitter" option.
The issue was introduced by 0f95149 and it only worked before
because default game material alpha blending was set to alpha.
Now it'll check whether material has transparency enabled and
will use alpha blending by default in this case.
Current temporary data of Blender suffers one major issue - default 'temp' dir on Windows is never
automatically cleaned up, and can end being quite big when used by Blender, especially when we have
to store per-process data (using getpid() in file names).
To address this, this patch:
* Divides tempdir paths in two, one for 'base' temp dir (the same as previous unique tempdir path),
the other is a mkdtemp-generated sub-dir, specific to each Blender instance.
* Only uses base tempdir when we need some shallow persistance accross Blender sessions - and we always
reuse the same filename (quit.blend...) or generate small file (crash reports...).
* Uses temp sub-dir for heavy files like pointcache or renderEXRs (Save Buffer option).
* Erases temp sub-dir on quit or crash.
To get this working it also adds a working 'recursive delete' to BLI_delete() under Windows.
Note that, as in current code, the 'recover render result' hack-feature that was possible
with SaveBuffer option is still removed. A real renderresult cache feature will be added
soon, though.
