The main goal of this patch is to cleanup the interface of every modifier. More specifically the interface of modifiers should be DerivedMesh-free.
Internally some modifiers still use DerivedMesh. However I think it is better when the wrappers are in the modifiers so that higher level functions can use the simplified interface.
This patch removes the applyModifier_DM and applyModifierEM_DM functions. In a previous patch (rB3614d9d) the other functions that used DerivedMesh have been removed.

Since shape keys are stored as raw floating point data, this
unfortunately requires changes to all code that works with it.
An additional complication is that bezier and nurbs control
points have different entry size, and can be mixed in the same
object (and hence shape key buffer).
Shape key entries are changed from:
bezier: float v1[3], v2[3], v3[3], tilt, pad, pad;
nurbs: float vec[3], tilt;
To:
bezier: float v1[3], v2[3], v3[3], tilt, radius, pad;
nurbs: float vec[3], tilt, radius, pad;
The official shape key element size is changed to 3 floats,
with 4 elements for bezier nodes, and 2 for nurbs. This also
means that the element count is not equal to the vertex count
anymore.
While searching for all curve Shape Key code, I also found that
BKE_curve_transform_ex and BKE_curve_translate were broken. This
can be seen by trying to change the Origin of a Curve with keys.

Seems like GLEW_ARB_texture_float is not defined in core profile on OSX
even if float textures are part of the 3.3 core spec.
So removing uneeded backup cases.
Most other software expects to read indexed vertex colors, so write indices
along with the colors as we already do for UVs.

Previously it was possible to have geometry component to
tag batch for DIRTY_ALL and shading to tag with SHADING_UPDATE.
Now there is a relation between uber eval and shading, which
solves this issue.
The idea of those flags is to avoid evaluation of operations
which are not needed to bring visible objects to an up to date
state.
Previously, dependency graph attempted to do combine those
into an ID level flag. In practice it proved to be rather
tricky, since there could be dependency cycles on ID level
which will not exist on component level.
This allows to force duplicated object to be fully evaluated for
display/draw.
Previously only transform component of duplicated object was
forced to become evaluated.
