Bugfix #6255: Library.Load() failed on some blend files prior to 2.43.
Consolidated some code to make Python and Blender UI more in common. Also
fixed some compiler warnings in the process.
When using international fonts, blender was assuming that the
default language on the system was chinese.
Now it checks to see what language code you have selected and
if its chinese or japanese it converts those to utf8 and then
continues to translate them.
I can't fully check this so will need others to test it. This
should at least be better now.

* Added new brush, "Flatten". This brush pushes vertices along the normal defined by the average normal of each vertex within the brush area. The vertices are pushed towards the plane defined by vertices towards the edge of the brush. Essentially, this means that the direction of flattening is dependent on the surface beneath the brush.
* In order to make space for the flatten brush, the controls inside the Sculpt palette were widened to 268. (Note that the panel width didn't change, so it still fits properly in the vertical layout.)
* Todo: it would probably make sense to make the "View" slider available under the Brush tab available for the Flatten brush (currently it's only used for the Draw brush.)
Group nodes with animation nodes inside (like Time) did not get updated
correctly.
I also noticed that with time Nodes, the hotkey "E" (execute) fails to do
a composite after frame changes, fixed that too.
An acos() getting a negative value caused 'ray trace shadow bias' to go
wrong (and object render entirely black). Only in very rare cases... but
nevertheless a nice discovery fixing other unpredictable issues.
(Symptom: entire object renders black)
removed most custom add_*data* wrappers from Main.c
removed makeCurrent() from Text.c (was never in a release), use "bpy.texts.active = text" now
clamp new image sizes
made add_empty_action accept a string rather then a blocktype since the blocktype was only being used to choose one of 3 strings anyway.
In my attempts to get cinepaint's cineon code to work with files in memory,
I accidently rewrote something that should have been left as it is. This
causes images whose image buffers didn't start right after the cineon header to
become "shifted" to the left.
The DPX code looks correct, though.
* Added bpy.*.new() - works for all except sound and font types
* Added bpy.*.load() - works for sound, font and image types
Text3d - removed unneeded check.
