Object sockets work now, but only the new Object Transforms and the
Particle Mesh Emitter node use it. The emitter does not actually
use the mesh surface yet. Instead, new particles are just emitted around
the origin of the object.
Internally, handles to object data blocks are passed around in the network,
instead of raw object pointers. Using handles has a couple of benefits:
* The caller of the function has control over which handles can be resolved
and therefore limit access to specific data. The set of data blocks that
is accessed by a node tree should be known statically. This is necessary
for a proper integration with the dependency graph.
* When the pointer to an object changes (e.g. after restarting Blender),
all handles are still valid.
* When an object is deleted, the handle is invalidated without causing crashes.
* The handle is just an integer that can be stored per particle and can be cached easily.
The mapping between handles and their corresponding data blocks is
stored in the Simulation data block.

This also introduces the `blender::nodes` namespace. Eventually,
we want to move most/all of the node implementation files into
this namespace.
The reason for this file-move is that the code fits much better
into the `nodes` directory than in the `blenkernel` directory.

This adds new callbacks to `bNodeSocketType` and `bNodeType`.
Those are used to generate a multi-function network from a node
tree. Later, this network is evaluated on e.g. particle data.

I have to add some C++ code in callbacks for socket types
for the new particle system.
