Fix for numeric var types creating an error.

Fix for fix. Forgot to check if markers exist before trying to clear. Oops

Use ThreadedWorker for dispatch

ThreadedWorker

New functions to easily dispatch work to a limited number of thread, transparently.

NOTE: Could be merged in trunk, if needed.

BGE patch: New Delay sensor (derived from patch #17472)

Introduction of a new Delay sensor that can be used to
generate positive and negative triggers at precise time,
expressed in number of frames.
The delay parameter defines the length of the initial
OFF period. A positive trigger is generated at the end
of this period. The duration parameter defines the
length of the ON period following the OFF period.
A negative trigger is generated at the end of the ON period.
If duration is 0, the sensor stays ON and there is no
negative trigger.
The sensor runs the OFF-ON cycle once unless the repeat
option is set: the OFF-ON cycle repeats indefinately
(or the OFF cycle if duration is 0).

The new generic SCA_ISensor::reset() Python function
can be used at any time to restart the sensor: the
current cycle is interrupted and no trigger is generated.

Fixed problems with markers where Edit All did not behave the same for every marker and deleting selections that intersect markers did not remove the marker in all cases.

Boids didn't get correct fall-off from wind effector.
Boids now react to vortex field also.

Animateable (ipos) power and fall-off for particle effectors.

Esc removes markers in stages. Temporary markers are removed first (if any) then other markers follow.

warning message for when sensors loose their controllers, has been a problem recently with linking in groups that contain game logic.
- also useful for testing bug [#17485] Sensors lost when loading objects from a group (apricot showstopper)

SCA_PythonController.cpp - Made errors in python print the controller name, useful when blender crashes on printing the python error which happens frequently.
buttons_logic.c - NULL checks for game logic buttons, linking in groups with some logic links to objects outsude the group could crash blender. There are NULL checks for this case elsewhere so I assume it should be supported.
CMakeLists.txt - remove YESIAMSTUPID option, is not used anymore.

Improvements to the base BPyTextPlugin module:
- Added a centralized function for resolving targets (aaa.bbb.ccc)
- Added documentation support for locally defined classes and methods
- The time taken to parse now dictates how long to use the cache before parsing again
- Other tweaks and comments and support for numeric var types

The text plugin scripts have been updated to make use of these features.

BGE bug fix: the fix in revision 16022 for bug #17450 was wrong: the formula used to extract scaling and rotation was giving incorrect results for some type of rotation, leading to wrong position and orientation for parented objects with no scale applied. The new formula follows Blender's internal math.

Better logic to display symmetries
Add option to hide node and arc indexes (for cleaner screenshots)

Simpledeform origin is no longer attache to parent by default
That was due to a current limitation on dag system.. that leads to cyclic dependencies.

So now you can attach the origin of a simpledeform to an empty and mark whether its
affected by the relative position of empty or the global one.

brecht found a workarround to solve the cyclic dependency by
using a parent of both the mesh and the control empty:

empty_parent
|
|-> empty controlling simpledeform
|-> mesh with simpledeform modifier

Merge from trunk 16031:16122

Control bones support for root bones (didn't work previously)

Preliminary support for multi threading. Fixed at 4 threads now, will make it use the option eventually.

Need a better mecanism to wait for at least one finished threads.

Add a function to join thread by index in the thread list.

This can be safely merged in trunk, in case anyone needs something like that.

merging trunk 15964 -> 16116
