Now callbacks for animdata, nla strip and fcurve are in their own proper
BKE files (mimicking `foreach_id` callback of `IDTypeInfo`).
This commit also fixes some missing handling of ID pointers (text ID and
IDProperties of script fcurve modifier...).
Since we are already respecting the User Preference for 'auto_smoothing'
in 'BKE_nlastrip_validate_fcurves', we should also do this for default
interpolation and handles.

The default was changed with an initial implementation of the feature.
With the feedback from animators, having a behavior which affects curves
outside of a changing range is not convenient for professional animators
working on high quality character animation. On the other hand, automatic
smoothing is better for casual animation of object motion.
This change adds an ability to change the default via User Preferences.

A lot of areas were querying sound information directly using audio handle
which does not exist on an original sound IDs.
This change basically makes it so it's possible to query information about
given sound ID, without worrying about whether it's loaded or not: if it is
needed to load it first it happens automatically (no automatically-opened
handles are left behind though).
While this seems a bit extreme to open files on such queries it is still
better than the old situation when all sound handles were opened on file
load, no matter if it's needed or not. Besides, none of the changed code
paths are performance critical, just handful of tools.

NLA strips are users of their action, so we need to pass along ID
management flags.
This commit also cleans up a bit things by passing along ID_CREATE/COPY
flags instead of dummy booleans...
It's been 9 years too long.
And don't get this one confused with nla.bake (why would you even?).
The·BakeAction operator will be renamed to NLA_TO_bake next.
Each AnimData block has a set of Blend/Extrapolation/Influence settings
that can be used to control how the active action is blended with the
NLA stack. However, these settings were not getting copied over to the
newly created strips (as the push-down code existed long before these
settings were added).
This commit solves this in several ways:
* Active Action Blend/Extrapolation/Influence settings now get copied
to the new strips when adding them to the NLA stack via Push Down.
Note: This doesn't happen when there are no existing NLA tracks,
as these settings don't get used in that case.
* Strip Influence will be copied across when inf < 1.0 (i.e. when a
non-default value is used), to maintain the effect. To make this work,
the influence value will get added as a keyframe to the strip's
"Influence" Control FCurve.
- See code comments for an alternative approach and why that was not chosen
- Strip Time still doesn't get keyframes added automatically yet.
* To ensure the "extrapolation mode" settings don't get always overwritten,
I've put in place a compromise: the extrapolation will only get changed
if the chosen setting will cause problmes (i.e. hold forward & back -> hold forward
if there are other tracks before it already).
Not safe for backporting to 2.79[x] stable releases.
The legacy algorithm only considers two adjacent points when computing
the bezier handles, which cannot produce satisfactory results. Animators
are often forced to manually adjust all curves.
The new approach instead solves a system of equations to trace a cubic spline
with continuous second derivative through the whole segment of auto points,
delimited at ends by keyframes with handles set by other requirements.
This algorithm also adjusts Vector handles that face ordinary bezier keyframes
to achieve zero acceleration at the Vector keyframe, instead of simply pointing
it at the adjacent point.
Original idea and implementation by Benoit Bolsee <benoit.bolsee@online.be>;
code mostly rewritten to improve code clarity and extensibility.

While such drivers will generally get evaluated too late to be of much
use during animations, it can still be useful to allow using drivers to
control a whole bunch of NLA strip properties (i.e. syncing NLA strip
timings via a single property/control).
Keyframe insertion however is still not allowed on these properties
(and an error message will now be displayed when trying to do so,
instead of silently failing), as it is useless.
Deleting the old internal audaspace.
Major changes from there are:
- The whole library was refactored to use C++11.
- Many stability and performance improvements.
- Major Python API refactor:
- Most requested: Play self generated sounds using numpy arrays.
- For games: Sound list, random sounds and dynamic music.
- Writing sounds to files.
- Sequencing API.
- Opening sound devices, eg. Jack.
- Ability to choose different OpenAL devices in the user settings.
Things like `BLI_uniquename` had nothing, but really nothing to do in
BLI_path_util files!
Also, got rid of length limitation in `BLI_uniquename_cb`, we can use
alloca here to avoid overhead of malloc while keeping free size (within
reasonable limits of course).
We have callbacks for that, they also do some checks and help ensure things are done
correctly. Only place where this is assumed not true is blenloader (since here we
may affect refcount of library IDs as well...).
Transition strips in the NLA should always stick to whatever strips are beside it,
and are allowed to grow/shrink as needed to achieve this. Previously the code here
was only checking if the neighbouring strips started encroaching on the transition,
but not whether the transition needed to grow to fill a gap. It was also just
moving all strips when there was insufficient space, even though that would alter
timing down the track.
Now transition strip resizing works as follows:
* It will grow/shrink as necessary to absorb any changes in the length of its neighbours
instead of shunting everything around to maintain its length
* If the neighbour has been resized by an amount greater than the transition's length,
all the strips will need to be shunted away to make way for the neighbour. In this
case, the transition will shrink down to being 1 frame long to ensure that it is
still visible (so that it can be removed if necessary).
The "tweak user" flag used to flag strips using the same action as the active strip
was not getting set on other strips that live on the same track as the active one.
Strips with this flag set are shown with a red colour to indicate that editing the
action may have the unintended consequence of modifying another strip.
