The replace mesh actuator was reconverting the mesh data which causes
conflicts with the LoD code. Instead, we just look for an already
converted mesh, which should already be in the scene.
Using layer visibility in active render layer makes more accurate
preview but can cause problems in some cases:

GLSL lamps now ignore layer visibility if lock_camera_and_layers is
OFF or game engine is running. The material lamp group still works
unconditionally though.
Due to skinning changes for multi-threaded animations, the LOD check was
being done after skinning. Now the LOD check is run before animations.
This means the culling information is a frame old, but this should be
fine.
This information only really seems to be for helping developers track
down bugs, and isn't really something the user needs. So, lets not spam
their console.
The Bullet 2.82 update uses a different method for ray casting that
seems incompatible with our older files. So, for now we just force the
vehicle physics to use the older ray casting method.
The shadow render passes could set a mesh's modified status to false
even if they were not rendered. This means their display lists do not
get updated. For now, just skip setting all buckets' modified to false
during shadow render passes.
This patch removes the limitations on the number of action layers in the BGE.
BL_ActionManager currently uses a fixed array to keep track of the action layers. This patch replaces the fixed array with a map which allows for dynamic allocation of action layers. Layers (map items) are automatically removed on BL_ActionManager's update function. The maximum number of layers is roughly the value of a short. Backwards functionality is maintained and there are no changes to the Python API.

Updating object IPOs is not currently thread-safe since it also updates
children. This leads to problems when parents and children are both
animated. For now, updating object IPOs is done in its own loop to avoid
threading issues.
I'm not sure why this function ever increased the object's refcount. Any
place in the code that calls KX_GameObject::GetParent() has to turn
around and call parent->Release(). Forgetting to call Release() was a
common cause of memory leaks (in fact, KX_SteeringActuator was probably
leaking). If the refcount needs to be increased, the calling code can
handle calling AddRef().
* Moving the BlenderDebugDraw (derived from btIDebugDraw) from
KX_BlenderSceneConverter to CcdPhysicsEnvironment
* Moving CcdPhysicsEnvironment initialization to CcdPhysicsEnvironment
(this could probably be cleaned up some more with some sort of
factory, or at least moving code to CcdPhysicsEnvironment's
constructor)
* Simplifying physics environment initialization (went from two
switches to one)
Also refactor:
- Material property UI related to shadows
- Preparation of OR-ed mode flags (ma->mode_l) of render materials

These were used in BL_CreatePhysicsObjectNew() in the converter. However, all
of the data put into KX_ObjectProperties was then copied again in
KX_ConvertBulletObject(). So, instead KX_ConvertBulletObject() now gathers the
information it needs itself, which avoid this odd double conversion step for
physics.
As a side-effect, the old code would result in static non-mesh objects with no bounds
set to still have triangle mesh bounds. This would result in no bounds for these objects.
If a bounds was set that required a mesh, non-mesh objects would become sphere bounds.
This is now true regardless of whether user bounds were set. In other words, static
non-mesh objects now use sphere bounds by default instead of mesh bounds. This might
slightly alter some games, but these objects should generally be set to No Collision
anyways.
This change introduces a new checkbox to deactivate the sensors, controllers and/or actuators. It is useful during the development phase to avoid delete sensors, controllers or actuators if you want to test something new.
NOC: The wiki page is being updated (the images mostly), but the feature is already in the 2.71 release log.

There was some deadlock due to trying manage Python's GIL. Instead of
continuing to fight with it, anything needing to call into Python while
conversion during lib loading is just delayed until it can be done in
the main thread.
