This includes DNA data and any reference to the BGE code in Blender itself.
We are bumping the subversion.
Pending tasks:
* Tile/clamp code in image editor draw code.
* Viewport drawing code (so much of this will go away because of BI removal
that we can wait until then to remove this.
With better directory layout and more proper include
statements we can avoid several local modifications,
such as changing config.h for Windows Glog and the
ones related on pass-through statements in logging
headers in Glog.
This commit also makes unused functions not-a-warning
for external code.
Seems we can not use include directories order trick, since
files are included form inside ".." string, which forces current
directory to be checked first.
We've got quite comprehensive BMesh based implementation, which is way easier
for maintenance than abandoned Carve library.
After all the time BMesh implementation was working on the same level of
limitations about manifold meshes and touching edges than Carve. Is better
to focus on maintaining one boolean implementation now.

This brings separate initialization for libcuda and libnvrtc, which
fixes Cycles nvrtc compilation not working on build machines without
CUDA hardware available.

nvcc is very picky regarding compiler versions, severely limiting the compiler we can use, this commit adds a nvrtc based compiler that'll allow us to build the cubins even if the host compiler is unsupported. for details see D2913.

Deleting the old internal audaspace.
Major changes from there are:
- The whole library was refactored to use C++11.
- Many stability and performance improvements.
- Major Python API refactor:
- Most requested: Play self generated sounds using numpy arrays.
- For games: Sound list, random sounds and dynamic music.
- Writing sounds to files.
- Sequencing API.
- Opening sound devices, eg. Jack.
- Ability to choose different OpenAL devices in the user settings.
The Issue
=======
For a long time now MinGW has been unsupported and unmaintained and at this point,
it looks like something that we should just leave behind and move on.
Why Remove
==========
One of the big motivations for MinGW back in the day is that it was free compared to MSVC which was licensed based.
However, now that this is no longer true we have basically stopped updating the need CMake files.
Along with the CMake files, there are several patches to the extern libs needed to make this work. For example, see:
https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/master/extern/carve/patches/mingw_w64.patch
If we wanted to keep MinGW then we would need to make more custom patches to the external libs and
this is not something our platform maintainers are willing to do.
For example, here is the patches needed to build python: https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-python3
