Extension of the C-API for Bullet in Blender, to enable customized collision detection outside of rigid body dynamics. These extensions consist of a few major changes: * Support for "btGhost" objects. These are Bullet collision objects, but not rigid bodies. They can be added to a btCollisionWorld, or they can be used for immediate individual collision detection. Ghost objects don't have any effect on rigid bodies or other collision objects. Ghost objects are "one-way" colliders: they register contacts with actual collision objects, but don't themselves generate contacts in other bodies. This makes them useful for accessing Bullet's advanced contact generation algorithms in simulation systems that don't actually interact with rigid bodies (e.g. hair or cloth). * Better low-level access to collision shapes. Collision shapes can now be allocated outside of the API using static size variables. This allows more efficient allocation schemes, such as bulk array allocation and mempools/memarenas. The Bullet engine itself expects callers to allocate and manage class instances in fact, but due to the optional linking with Bullet and the differences between C/C++ the allocation was left to single collision shape instances so far. * Compound shapes can now be constructed explicitly as well. Previously only the primitive shapes were supported, with compounds limited to special cases. * Contact callback functions (contact and proximity tests) can now do complete reports of all manifold contact points. Taken together, these API improvements will open up Bullet to a wider range of features inside Blender, for rigid body simulations as well as other uses.

Added API representation of manifold contact points and the direct contact test function from btCollisionWorld. This function can be used for testing individual collision objects (rigid bodies or ghosts) against objects in the world. It is only useful for one-way interaction (rigid bodies don't react to the tested object), but allows collision detection without adding objects into the world. The current build process for the scene dynamics world is very much centered on Blender Objects and extending it is difficult. |

Reorganizing Bullet world rebuilding in scene updates to allow pure collision-only time steps and (uncached) ghost objects. This will allow non-rigidbody sims (e.g. hair, softbody) to hook into bullet collision detection via "ghost objects". These are Bullet objects without rigid body dynamics (btCollisionObject). The contacts are generated just like for rigid bodies, but their internal solvers can then work like before without having to use Bullet stepping. |

Support for btGhostObjects in the Bullet API. Ghost objects are pure collision objects that have no effect on rigid bodies, but can be used to hook into the collision detection of Bullet. This way Blender can utilize the optimized collision detection in Bullet as well as its contact caching, which is necessary for stable collision response in many softbody-type algorithms that implement Coulomb friction cones. |

API for compound collision shapes in the Blender RigidBody module. |

Refactoring internal btCollisionShape storage in the rbCollisionShape wrapper class. Now there are a matching subclasses of `rbCollisionShape` for each of the used `btCollisionShape` equivalents. They store a bt shapes as direct members, which means the internal memory allocation can be largely avoided later, which is useful for efficient creation of many shapes in mempools etc. |

"Init" variants of shape constructor functions for simple implicit shapes. These functions allow external memory allocation (using the associated ***_size values) for efficiency. An array or memory pool can then be used to create lots of shapes and initialize them with the internal Bullet data using the API. Note that doing this for mesh-based shapes (triangle mesh, GImpact and convex hull shapes) is not very useful, because they allocate data internally and should not be created in massive numbers. The init variants are supposed to be used for small fixed-size shapes (boxes, spheres, etc.) which can then be combined into compound shapes. |

"Free" function for shapes which only deconstructs the object, but does not handle deallocation. |

Generalized the convex-sweep test API function to also support ghost objects. All collision test functions work with btCollisionObject, but for the C API they need explicit variants for rbRigidBody and rbGhostObject. |
