Replace the import/export of armature layers with bone collections.
The Old Way:
- Export: Each bone would store which armature layer it was on.
- Import: All armature layers that contain at least a bone are shown.
The New Way:
- Export: Each armature contains a list of its bone collections,
including which one is active and which ones are visible.
- Export: Each bone stores which bone collection it is on.
- Import: the above data is simply used as-is.
Due to limitations of the current Collada importer code, each "extra"
tag can only occur once per Collada node. This means that it was
impossible to write a `<collection name="Bones">` tag for each bone
collection, as only one of those would actually be stored by the
importer for further processing. To work around this limitation, all
bone collection related tags store their values as newline-separated
strings. Example:
```
<node id="Armature">
<extra>
<technique profile="blender">
<collections sid="collections" type="string">Layer 1
Layer 3b
Group
That One Bone</collections>
<visible_collections sid="visible_collections" type="string">Layer 1
Layer 3b
That One Bone</visible_collections>
<active_collection sid="active_collection" type="string">That One Bone</active_collection>
</technique>
</extra>
</node>
```
