fix for [#8795] Unable to load an image into Image Texture Type

== Armature Tools - Separate (not yet functional) ==

Initial commit of Separate tool for Armatures. Currently, the functionality is hidden behind a temporary patch, as there are still issues to be worked out (crashes under certain conditions and a re-linking issue). It may remain like this for the release if I can't get it to work correctly.

Note:
- Hotkey for separate is Ctrl-Shift-P (it's a bit clumsy, and isn't consistent with P for separate for meshes, but Select Parent(s) is better as P)

Fix for change in default behaviour of adding objects: (commit oct 2007)

- The new default remains to add not aligned, not in editmode.
But, this is only for new users (in .B.blend default)
- It's nicer we don't change this for everyone automatic.

Means: people who like the new options have to set the buttons in user
menu and save .B.blend.

Fix for crash with UV unwrap without an image window open. It really
shouldn't be using the image window but for now this fixes the crash.

The next testing build, the 2.45-16, nicked "Gamera". :)

(Also: removed the ugly arbitrary 2 x rgb color hack that tried to make
shadeless color "useful" in opengl solid mode. Without overflowing
color it at least now shows the color you created.)

== bugfix ==
fix for [#6950] Blender crashes when .blog file top line is 160 characters or more
- made sure BLI_convertstringcode doesn't return more than 240 chars
- went through all callers and fixed places where string passed to BLI_convertstringcode was too short
- TODO: look into increasing sample->name and sound->name too, I prevented crashes, but filename might get shortened.

== Sequencer ==

Added IPO-support to color strip.

This fixes: [#8792] unable to de-assign ipo's from sequence-strips

[#8796] 2.46RC1 -- Incorrect Tool Tip on Ray Transp Gloss Button

[#7289] Orbit around selected in edit mode goes crazy with no verts selected
[#8784] orbiting around selection bug + a few kind of a must features (partial fix)

As suggested by Ton, keep last center and use that when nothing selected.

I don't really like it though as it wouldn't work ok when changing scene or when using a different 3D view and is somewhat non trivial to explain (it's not the last selection, it's the last used orbiting center).

own typo in py api

with displacement baking, white should be high

some fixes for python baking function
needed to add a small value to the baking distance for it to include faces of that distance (maybe should make this happen from the user interface too)

Minor tweaks to action-groups code, while trying to track down some bug for broken.

-> FLT I/O: UI now undo safe

Both the FLT importer and exporter now store and retrieve
their settings from the blender python registry making
them safe for use with global undo.

-> FLT I/O: LOD hiding on import

LODS were not getting hidden correctly on import.
Fixed now.

-> FLT I/O: Hierarchy order fixed on export

Hierarchy was getting reversed on import/export cycle
for FLT files. Fixed now.
