Added 'Object Location' option to 'object vertices' mode in Point
Density. This brings it consistent with the 'particle system'
mode, and allows silly things like this a bit easier (especially
after the last fix and BVH improvements!):

* Fix for volumetric rendering. It previously wasn't multiplying
the emission component by the density at the current point, which
made the volume too bright in less dense areas. This made it look
too rough, as opposed to smooth as it should be. This makes the
particle rendering look *much* better, thanks a bunch to ZanQdo for
complaining and kicking my butt to make me realise the error.

Here's an example of how smooth it looks now:

Settings in existing files will have to be tweaked a bit, since
what they were set up for before, was incorrect.

* Added two new interpolation types to Point Density: Constant and
Root. These work similarly to in proportional edit for example,
just gives a bit more choice over how hard-edged the particles
should look.

Update MSVC project file for Bullet soft body. Strange, I though I already fixed them.

+ hook up a few more parameters, that can be useful for Bullet soft bodies
+ work-in-progress to hook up cluster constraints (they are better than node/vertex pinning, because they maintain a proper world coordinate system)

* Point Density texture

Replaced the previous KD-tree (for caching points) with a
BVH-tree (thanks to Andre 'jaguarandi' Pinto for help here!).

The bvh is quite a bit faster and doesn't suffer some of the
artifacts that were apparent with the kd-tree.

I've also added a choice of falloff types: Standard, Smooth, and
Sharp. Standard gives a harder edge, easier to see individual
particles, and when used with a larger radius, Smooth and Sharp
falloffs make a much cloudier appearance possible. See the image
below (note the settings and render times too)

Bugfix #17721: Action Strips added from scripts don't work properly unless at least one strip has already been added by hand.

Synced the behaviour of the PyAPI when adding strips with the behaviour of UI.

Bugfix #17717: IPOs / Sequencer / Markers: deleting an IPO delete also selected markers

Final attempt at solving this problem. This time I've decided to separate the 'delete markers' from the 'delete keys' hotkeys, as it proved to be too problematic for users.

The new hotkey for deleting markers is "Shift-XKEY". (or Shift-Delkey)
P.S. I know that 'Shift' is usually used for 'add' operations, but this will have to do for now...

Also, rearranged button order in Timeline header a bit to group keyframing buttons together more.

Fix for build error, mustn't have committed this properly last night

add support for Bullet soft body constraints against a Bullet rigid body, as well as 'fixing' it. Just use the existing rigid body joint to use it. For now, it searches the closest node/vertex to the pivot. So you can use multiple constraints/joint to attach a cloth, soft body etc.

add setUnscaledRadius for btSphereShape

Fix for bug #17691: edgesplit was crashing on windows on large meshes
due to stack overflow.

Keyframing:

- More cleanups, to move the return of success from insertkey to take into account results of 'only needed' keying option
- Added a 'better' test for size of area than the previous one (for use with the keyframing buttons in the TimeLine)
- Moved the checks for Action/IPO editors to commonkey_context_get() so that the keyframing buttons in TimeLine could also consider using these editor's keyframing methods too

A few cleanups in keyframing.c
- Added missing update calls for buttons window keyframing. This should get rid of all those sporadic update problems (using a different keyingset would result in no curve being added)

Bugfix:

Keyframing from Buttons Window was broken for Materials/Lamps/Worlds due to a mixup regarding the correct adrcodes for texture-slots.

Action Editor:

* Grease Pencil Mode - now includes the area-ID into the name string. While the numbers currently don't mean much (though they do make it easier to distinguish between views to more than before), they could become handy if/when PyAPI access to Grease Pencil data comes into handy

* Copy + Paste bugfixes
- When there was a collapsed group, it was impossible to get the keyframes in the keyframe summary to be copied too. This fix shouldn't cause any problems with other things...
- Feature to allow pasting to any channel without doing name matching was not working

* Removed the volume 'layer depth' control' (was used to
limit ray intersections like as for ray transparency). It
remains to be seen if it's even that useful, and was
preventing refracting materials behind volumes from
working easily.

Fix for bug #13624: knife cut with vertex snapping was broken.

Fix for bug #17302: subsurf + particle size vertex groups did not
work correct, also refactored some code here to make it more clear.

WITH_ELBEEM diabled wasnt working with cmake
