* removed struct for SpaceType and all usages
* SPACE_IMASEL in enum nees to be kept to identify it in old files
* it is replaces with SPACE_EMPTY on load, which is overridden by SPACE_INFO which has same struct members
* also removed theme settings
- remove redundant casts
- replace strcmp's with "" to just check first char.
- added WM_event_print(), debug mode only to print events since the structs values are not that meaningful.
- added warnings if locale/font dirs cant be found.
This branch adds mostly organizational improvements to the node system by renaming the node folders and files. A couple of internal features have been added too.

Diff Keymaps
User edited keymaps now no longer override the builtin keymaps entirely, but
rather save only the difference and reapply those changes. This means they can
stay better in sync when the builtin keymaps change. The diff/patch algorithm
is not perfect, but better for the common case where only a few items are changed
rather than entire keymaps The main weakness is that if a builtin keymap item
changes, user modification of that item may need to be redone in some cases.
Keymap Editor
The most noticeable change here is that there is no longer an "Edit" button for
keymaps, all are editable immediately, but a "Restore" buttons shows for keymaps
and items that have been edited. Shortcuts for addons can also be edited in the
keymap editor.
Addons
Addons now should only modify the new addon keyconfiguration, the keymap items
there will be added to the builtin ones for handling events, and not get lost
when starting new files. Example code of register/unregister:
km = wm.keyconfigs.addon.keymaps.new("3D View", space_type="VIEW_3D")
km.keymap_items.new('my.operator', 'ESC', 'PRESS')
km = wm.keyconfigs.addon.keymaps["3D View"]
km.keymap_items.remove(km.keymap_items["my.operator"])
Compatibility
The changes made are not forward compatible, i.e. if you save user preferences
with newer versions, older versions will not have key configuration changes that
were made.
* New object pointers can't be loaded properly for library linked groups, so the weight groups now store an index to the group objects at save time. This index is used at load time to set the objects without relying on the old pointers.
* If the library linked group is modified the indices can be wrong, but this can't really be avoided easily as there's no way to relate objects in a linked group between loads.
Usage currently is limited to:
- Panel text, widget text and label text style:
point size, shadow effects
Setting individual fonts to these is not possible yet, it uses the
default for it.
Access goes via outliner now; check "User Preferences". UI team could
add this in userpref scripts :)
This commit adds an experimental effect strip to the sequencer: "Title
Card".
This is useful for adding simple one-line text section headers or
"title cards" (i.e. title + author/contact details) to video clips,
which is often seen in demo videos accompanying papers and/or
animation tests.
See http://aligorith.blogspot.com/2011/06/gsoc11-simple-title-
cards.html for some more details on usage.
Code notes:
- There are a few things I've done here which will probably need
cleaning up. For instance, the hacks to get threadsafe fonts for
rendering, and also the way I've tried to piggyback the backdrop
drawing on top of the Solid Colour strips (this method was used to
keep changes here minimal, but is quite fragile if things change).
- moved do_history into WM_write_file after successful write of .blend@ temporary file
- Added new file flag, to avoid writing history on writing the startup.blend, autosave files and undo.
Thanks Campbell, Brecht for review!
- when saving blend file with 'Remap Relative' enabled, don't try make paths absolute if the internal filename is invalid.
- use case insensitive path comparison on windows when checking if path remapping is needed & for comparing next/prev dirs in the file selector.
- rename 'name', 'dir' --> 'filepath' where these actually represent a file path to avoid confusion.
- bugfix for possible (but unlikely) uninitialized string.
- remove commented script append function, now we have a python api for this.
simple modifier, almost like a hook, except it can deform with 2 object source -> target, has option to preserve rotation and use different falloff types.
Made some improvements to the point density texture. Added support
for tweaking the falloff with a custom curve. Also coded new
falloff types based on the age or velocity of particles.
Also added a test break check to the volumetric shade cache code,
to avoid nasty hangups from the preview render (on render, exit,
etc).
Envelope FModifier data points were getting saved in a non-portable
way. Apparently this broke when trying to read files with this data on
PPC machines if the files were saved using Intel machines.
