Fixed issues with modifier: Adding vertgroups now does not overwrite data. Also added proper weights to sharp edges

WIP: New simplify modifier

The modifier uses Ramer Douglas Peucker algorith to simplify lines.

New more work to get more control.

Overlapping parts of cross node edgecuts are now calculated.

Fixed vgroups editing all loop data in modifier

Make default object display size smaller

Make edit lines more transparent

Fix select error with Suzanne 2D

The strokes must be created with 3D space flag enabled.

Some optional timing for strand data buffer construction.

Implement a new automatic handle algorithm to produce smooth F-Curves.

The legacy algorithm only considers two adjacent points when computing
the bezier handles, which cannot produce satisfactory results. Animators
are often forced to manually adjust all curves.

The new approach instead solves a system of equations to trace a cubic spline
with continuous second derivative through the whole segment of auto points,
delimited at ends by keyframes with handles set by other requirements.

This algorithm also adjusts Vector handles that face ordinary bezier keyframes
to achieve zero acceleration at the Vector keyframe, instead of simply pointing
it at the adjacent point.

Original idea and implementation by Benoit Bolsee <benoit.bolsee@online.be>;
code mostly rewritten to improve code clarity and extensibility.

Add an FCurve flag to toggle new smoothing behavior.

The flag is exposed in UI below the curve color selector.

Make auto handle placement aware of cyclic extrapolation.

Cyclic extrapolation is implemented as an f-curve modifier, so this
technically violates abstraction separation and is something of a hack.
However without such behavior achieving smooth looping with cyclic
extrapolation is extremely cumbersome.

The new behavior is applied when the first modifier is Cyclic
extrapolation in Repeat or Repeat with Offset mode without
using influence, repeat count or range restrictions.

This change in behavior means that curve handles have to be updated
when the modifier is added, removed or its options change. Due to the
way code is structured, it seems it requires a helper link to the
containing curve from the modifier object.

Merge commit 'f934f54b84d4ed8fca9eb8de29de782c309dd4cd' into experimental-build

UI: Cleanup error when context object is none

Cleanup: Fix some minor issues in Suzanne 2D

Subdivision of hair fibers for smoother shading.

Subdivision works on the parent strands for efficiency. The fibers lengths
are based on the final subdivided length of parents, so no changes to the
shader are required.

This would be nicer with a tesselation shader, but this feature is not
available in Blender 2.8.

Add a primitive for 2D Suzanne

Merge branch 'master' into soc-2017-sculpting_improvements. Keep the branch up to date.

Added memory and data to handle intersection rings. Still WIP unstable.

Fixed the following for weighted modifier:

1) Now correctly splits loop normal according to sharp edges
2) Modifier now only acts on active vertex group
3) Added a check to use smooth/sharp flags as boolean weights

Add a line when edit strokes

This thin line helps to determine the stroke shape

vertex selection now works fine with occluded mode
