Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.

also rename mesh_getVertexCos() --> BKE_mesh_vertexCos_get() to match curve function.

also initialize bmesh-bevel settings struct to zero to avoid possible uninitialized memory later.

- define array sizes for functions that take vectors.
- quiet some -Wshadow warnings.
- some copy/paste error in readfile.c made it set the same particle recalc flag twice.

without the underscores these clogged up the namespace for autocompleation which was annoying.

These should not have any effect on render results, except in some cases with
you have overlapping faces, where the noise seems to be slightly reduced.
There are some performance improvements, for simple scenes I wouldn't expect
more than 5-10% to be cut off the render time, for sintel scenes we got about
50% on average, that's with millions of polygons on intel quad cores. This
because memory access / cache misses were the main bottleneck for those scenes,
and the optimizations improve that.
Interal changes:
* Remove RE_raytrace.h, raytracer is now only used by render engine again.
* Split non-public parts rayobject.h into rayobject_internal.h, hopefully
makes it clearer how the API is used.
* Added rayintersection.h to contain some of the stuff from RE_raytrace.h
* Change Isect.vec/labda to Isect.dir/dist, previously vec was sometimes
normalized and sometimes not, confusing... now dir is always normalized
and dist contains the distance.
* Change VECCOPY and similar to BLI_math functions.
* Force inlining of auxiliary functions for ray-triangle/quad intersection,
helps a few percentages.
* Reorganize svbvh code so all the traversal functions are in one file
* Don't do test for root so that push_childs can be inlined
* Make shadow a template parameter so it doesn't need to be runtime checked
* Optimization in raytree building, was computing bounding boxes more often
than necessary.
* Leave out logf() factor in SAH, makes tree build quicker with no
noticeable influence on raytracing on performance?
* Set max childs to 4, simplifies traversal code a bit, but also seems
to help slightly in general.
* Store child pointers and child bb just as fixed arrays of size 4 in nodes,
nearly all nodes have this many children, so overall it actually reduces
memory usage a bit and avoids a pointer indirection.
