mesh.calc_normals() wasnt calculating vertex normals (only face normals),
now only calculate vertex normals.
added a define incase we want to have poly normals back again.
On a user level, edge rotate now works better with multiple edges selected, it wont make zero area faces or rotate edges into existing ones.
With a single edge selected - rotate is less strict and will allow ugly resulting faces but still checks on duplicate edges.
API:
* BM_edge_rotate now takes a flag, to optionally...
** check for existing edge
** splice edge (rotate and merge)
** check for degenerate resulting faces (overlapping geometry, zero area)
** beauty - only rotate to a better fit.
... this allows it to still be used as a low level API function since all checks can be skipped.
* BM_edge_rotate() now works a bit different, it find the new edge rotation before joining the faces - exposed by BM_edge_rotate_calc().
* Added api call bmesh_radial_faceloop_find_vert() - Radial Find a Vertex Loop in Face
* optimize BM_face_other_edge_loop to do about half as many iterations for quad heavy meshes, with ngons the gain is much more since searching around the entire ngon when the edge already stores its loop is silly.
... also nicer in cases where edge has no face users it avoids a loop on all face corners.
Do not crash when joint SIDs cannot be resolved.
OpenCOLLADA cannot resolve joint SIDs connected to skin if the <skeleton> tag is missing.
Page 148 of COLLADA spec 1.4.1 states: "<skeleton> elements define where to start the sid lookup". So I think this is a bug in "FBX COLLADA exporter" which did not add the <skeleton> tag.
The problem can be fixed by manually adding the <skeleton> tag into <instance_controller>.
we cant ensure buildinfo to have utf8 encoding so access it as bytes via python - a different workaround then this patch made.
also use C style string formatting for sys_info.py
* calculate vertex normals (previously was calculating face normals only)
* clear tessfaces unless theres an argument to build them. since no tessfaces is the default state right now.
* if convert_mfaces_to_mpolys() runs, dont calculate edges, since it already does that.
* add BLI_rfindlink for reverse index lookup (used so bm.select_history[-1] doesn't have to loop the entire list twice).
* add bm.select_history.active so you can get the last selected item or None without having to check seq length.
In fact, most "UI special cases" are not well translated, currently. :/ This affects especially the "Properties" panels. This commit should address problems in Graph editors, and 3D View (but probably not yet all of them). Yet it already adds more than 100 new messages (and fixes translated drawing of more).
Also done some style edits…
* improve check to see if edge rotate can be done,
was checking if both edges verts have an edge count of 2, which is really a meaningless test since the verts can have stray edges connected and the result wont work right.
instead check if the next verts in both faces share a vertex.
* add utility function BM_face_other_vert_loop() which gets the next loop in a face.
* add convenience function BM_edge_face_pair() which returns 2 faces for edges that have exactly 2 face users. (saves ugly e->l->radial_next ... in code) and is more readable.
Also adds DampedTrackTo to the list of supported constraints in the BGE

Patch developed as part of a project to NF-UBC Nereus Program.
Development time 'sponsored' by the project.
www.nereusprogram.org
if blender freed the BMesh before python was finished (on exit editmode for eg), python would attempt to access the bmesh to clear python pointers in it.
- spelling - turns out we had tessellation spelt wrong all over.
- use \directive for doxy (not @directive)
- remove BLI_sparsemap.h - was from bmesh merge IIRC but entire file commented and not used.
* dont check selection and hiddent state (select + hide isnt allowed and api ensures this)
* MESH_OT_noise had incorrect check for texture (checked if slot [0] was filled but then used active texture)
In fact, the same bug affected curves' weights too. Now using the same method as for setting mesh edges' crease and bevel weights. Also factorized/simplified that part of code by defining a new utility func computing the scale factor.
Also greatly simplified UI code in same v3d_editvertex_buts() function, was really over-complicated (this fixes btw a few minor UI bugs in the transform editmode panel, like missing tips, etc.).
* double default edge allocation size (double the number of verts/faces).
* CustomData_bmesh_init_pool was using allocsize & chunksize as the same variable. Now use type specific chunk size.
* bmesh copy and editmode conversion now allocate the BMesh mempool size needed for the entire vert/edge/loop/face arrays since its known already.
