So constrainted bones can have their transform applied to their loc/scale/rot, then remove the constraints

Rotations are now stored internally as radians, while exposing degrees in the UI -
in the graph editor and UI controls. This is done in two areas:
1) Using the unit system to convert RNA data to display as degrees in the UI controls
2) FCurves now use degrees for rotation, so you can edit in the graph editor what
you see in the UI.
All rotation data is consistently accessible in DNA and RNA as radians, degrees are only
used for the UI controls and graph editor.
This commit includes conversions will convert old files (stored data and also fcurve data)
to the new units, hopefully everything should go smoothly!
Part of this also changes a few properties that were hard-coded as degrees before (such
as IK pole angle and brush texture rotation) to also use the same consistent system of
radians (dna/rna) and degrees (ui).
Thanks to Joshua for hints and review here too.

* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:

At last, this commit introduces the Spline IK Constraint to Blender. Spline IK is a constraint that makes n bones follow the shape of a specified curve.
Simply add a chain of bones, add a curve, add a Spline IK Constraint to the tip bone and set the number of bones in the chain to make it work. Or, try the following test file:

Screenshots of this in action (as proof):

I've implemented this in a similar way to how standard IK solvers are done. However, this code is currently not an IK plugin, since I imagine that it would be useful to be able to combine the 2 types of IK. This can be easily changed though :)
Finally, a few notes on what to expect still:
* Constraint blending currently doesn't affect this. Getting that to work correctly will take a bit more work still.
* Options for not affecting the root joint (to make it easier to attach the chain to a stump or whatever), and non-uniform scaling options have yet to be added. I've marked the places where they can be added though
* Control over the twisting of the chain still needs investigation.
Have fun!

(yes antique, but having 5 year old OS's work is very cool)
In short:
- include <cmath> after <math.h> fails
- STL template issues (recursion, syntax)

This commit implements more of the CopyPose capabilities in
Blender. It is now possible to select which axis will be
constrained in position and orientation to obtain
interesting effects. Another option selects if the axis
are relative to the end effector or to the target.
Unlocking a position axis means that the coordinate along
this axis is not constrained and can take any value.
Unlocking the Y axis of the End Effector produces an
'aiming' effect: the end effector is oriented towards
the target but without stretching.
Unlocking a rotation axis means that the end effector can
freely rotation along that axis. Unlocking the Y axis
produces a 'tangent' effect: the end effector aligns with
the Y axis of the target but can rotate along that axis.
A 'floor' effect is possible if the position Z axis of the
target is unlocked. More effects are possible an can be
combined.

Thanks to Masahito Takahashi (mato) for the report and patch to fix this!

This (biggish) commit generalises the rotation modes functionality added for Bones, allowing Objects to use the various Euler Rotation orders, Axis-Angle, and Quaternion rotation representations.
I've also cleaned up the nomenclature of the rotation-related settings so that the naming styles are more consistent with each other. Unfortunately, this will break all files involving object or bone rotation animation made in 2.5 versions (2.4x will still get correctly converted).
General Notes:
* By default, Objects still default to using Eulers, while Bones will use Quaternions by default still.
* I've fixed all areas that I'm currently aware of to work with these changes. However, there are probably a few places where I've missed a few changes (i.e. auto-keyframing will need attention later).
* Removed the old "IPO-Keys" stuff from Transform code. I'm unlikely to restore this in the near future, and trying to fix that to include support for this commit would have been too much work.

Makefile updated but not tested. Comes with Eigen2 2.0.6 C++ matrix library.
