This patch consists of two related fixes. The first is a simple fix for
forward compatibility, setting the Mesh.dvert pointer when writing a
file allows old Blender versions to read vertex groups from newly saved
files.
The second part is a bit uglier and more complex. Normally mesh vertex
group data is read in mesh_blend_read_data, for backward compatibility
with very old files. However, after 05952aa94d the mesh.dvert
pointer was not set, so the data was not read. Reading vertex group
layers when reading custom data is enough to fix that issue. We need to
read the data from *both* places, but BKE_defvert_blend_read cannot run
twice without memory leaks, so first try reading from custom data, then
read the pointer if that fails.
