Fix #23044: sculpted mesh not updated in object mode with VBO's enabled.

Fix #23014: 3d view pivot point default was bounding box instead of
median point as in 2.4x.

bugfix [#23046] export obj "selection only" issue

Bugfix #23000: AnimData on Meshes not saved (and loaded)

* Animation data for meshes wasn't getting saved at all (the linked actions were, but that doesn't really count)
* Lib-linked actions from other files may not load correctly too

Dammit to whoever removed the X-Ray button AGAIN from the armature buttons. I remember specifically restoring this a few months ago, but it seems to have gone missing again.

Despite the overlap with Object draw settings, this is a one-off setting that you'll end up turning on/off quickly while working with armatures and is also more conveniently set while chosing armature drawtypes (than jumping back to object buttons).

Grr...!

bugfix [#21754] Smooth view + repeeted view orbit results in slow orbiting.
- original quat was not assigned yet so never gave a good result.
- quat angle comparison as vector is wrong.

bugfix [#22027] Group disappears in render after adding a group instance

bugfix [#21407] 3DS Import do not show import options (resizingtransform fix)

[#22274] Special chars = 2 characters
workaround, just remove utf from number strings until we have proper UTF editing.

bugfix [#22605] Context auto-compleate fails first time

Merged changes in the trunk up to revision 30781.

Added helper functions to the Freestyle module:

* evaluateColorRamp() to evaluate a color ramp at a given point in
the interval 0 to 1.

* evaluateCurveMappingF() to evaluate a curve mapping at a given
point in the interval 0 to 1.

Jason, from your merge 30325.

move toolsettings out of the userprefs into the sculpt menu, if these should be userprefs then they should be moved into that struct.

* Partially revert r30763, where PROP_IMAGEPATH was added.
* Brush icon property back to not using image browser until a better solution is decided on.

patch [#23041] CMake WITH_PYTHON_INSTALL option
from Dan Eicher (dna)

--- snip ---
Adds the option to not copy python into the .blender/python directory.

Also fixes the problem of deleting the blender installed python where the blender runtime only looks for the copied python and not the system one but not entirely sure why, something to do with CMake hardcoding the PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME vars I suppose.

This patch only applies to the 'UNIX AND NOT APPLE' platforms but, then again, those are the only ones anyone really
cares about...or at least the only ones where using the system python is really viable.

patch [#22901] pixel- and aspectratio corrected camera representation in 3dview
from Ralf Hölzemer (cheleb) with my own edits to make the selected camera more clear in the camera view, this also works around the problem where you cant see the camera to select it with passepartout close to 1.0.

--- snip ---
Attached patch changes the camera representation to draw pixel- and aspectratio corrected in 3dview. It does also fix
a little issue where the camera name would jump when the title save would be (de)activated in the camera view.

* Fix: CPU usage was going way up because some WM_main_add_notifier functions that I thought were commented out somehow became active again.

* removing code meant for debugging
