This patch adds the ability to lock transformation on bones in edit mode, to protect them from accidental editing.
Bones can be locked from the editing buttons, the transform property panel, the specials popup menu or the python api.
This now works even when there is a proxy-protected bone selected with a few differences.
* The Transform Locks, IK-Flags, and Custom Bone Shape settings are unavailable, as they would be reset by the proxy protection anyway
Also, the Copy Constraints options have been altered so that they do NOT free all existing constraints on the target bones before copying.
* Constraints are now appended to the end of the constraint stacks, with those added to bones belonging on proxy protected layers getting tagged as 'local' constraints.
* This is more useful for riggers than the previous behaviour (which was quite nasty too).
Render/postrender events were missing from bg rendering (and also from rendering called inside scripts). Found this because of bug #17389, the code to prevent race conditions with pynodes is currently inside BPY_do_all_scripts (that runs scriptlinks) and so was not being called in bg mode or rendering via scripts.

This commit attempts to fix some of the problems with the accuracy of strokes recorded.
I've disabled the post-draw smoothing of strokes as it deviated from the source stroke too much. This was introduced to try to eliminate the effects of fine 'jitter' (which is especially noticable when using optical mice + fast computer).
Now, I've introduced two thresholds which determine the 'minimum' distances that the mouse needs to have moved from the previous mouse-coordinates recorded, to be recorded. These are currently hardcoded, but may be exposed in the UI if there is significant need to do so.
- The first is for the distance that the mouse must have moved on both axes to be considered.
- The second is for the 'pythagorean' distance that needs to have been travelled by the mouse.
* For constraint mesh-targets, the check for whether the target mesh was in EditMode didn't check to see if the target mesh was the mesh in EditMode.
Thanks jaguarandi for catching that!
* Bumped up size of buffer for grease-pencil drawing after seeing a program written in 1989 that had a 100 times larger buffer
Early Ehlinger reported a deadlock when a script tells Blender to render an animation and there are pynodes. While investigating I saw related crashes in bg (blender -b) mode, still not fixed. This commit tries to fix the problem for interactive mode, then. What it does is releasing the lock before rendering and relocking after that, like theeth suggests in the bug report:

*the options "remove faces", "merge" points were removed
*made shrinkwrap work with CVs (curves and nurbs surfaces)
*cleanup shrinkwrap code.. (removed bruteforces and raytree methods)
It turns out the material AmbCol property was never working properly, or even supported in the renderer, so I've removed it. Also included is a fix to make the 'Amb' input work properly too.
Axial symmetry tagging was depending on the order of the nodes, so it might tag left side as right and vice versa depending on the order. Stability test ensures the tagging is order independant (what it tags as right and left might not be the real right and left, but at least they are consistant between mesh graph and armature graph, so it doesn't flip limbs)
left overs from new particles
-wind and force did not work if aero or edge collision was activated.
-force field had flipped sign compared to particles
tsk who thinks a attractive force should negative sign? well... i am passionless with that.
-adapted effect of wind and fields on softbodies such that softbody "particles" and particle "particles" behave consistently
note!
effect of wind is 1/25 compared to before
other forces 1/10
New Stuff:
* Alt-XKEY / Alt-DelKey will now activate the Grease Pencil "Erase" menu. This will only show up when it's relevant (i.e. when there exists Grease Pencil data). It should make it faster to quickly delete the last stroke made. This hotkey has been added to the tooltips of the relevant buttons.
* Finished off colouring of 'active' layers panel so that they are now easily identify-able. This could also be done for Constraints, but the 'active' one isn't that important there.
Bugfixes:
* Fixed bug with drawing gp-data sources in the Action Editor, which resulted in missing icons.
* Fixed buttons in Grease Pencil panel. My hasty attempt last night at making the Action Editor to refresh was causing problems.
* Added a (hopefully temporary) button that will be used to prevent drawing from occurring with Shift-LMB. This is useful when trying to select stuff sometimes, with LMB as select-button, especially when selecting a bunch of closely spaced bones might be interpreted as a new stroke.
