This adds support to compile the html python api docs from the command line by running `make doc_py` matching support between windows and unix.
This patch also makes it so the compiler is not needed if you set the `blender_bin` variable, this affects icon generation as well.
In the future, I want to move away from generating the build output in the build directory but that can come in a later change.

This change removes 32 bit support from the helper make.bat scripts
as we are dropping official 32 bit support, you can still build for
32 bit by configuring your build yourself using cmake and pointing
the LIBDIR cmake variable to your own 32 bit library folder.
This has faster builds, error checks and tests. The number of cmake options
for this type of thing has grown over the years and it's convenient to be
able to point new developers to a single target.
Previously the combination of all these options did not work correctly, now
all tests should pass.
The easiest way to use this is with the make wrapper, for example:
make full developer debug
Or set it manually with CMake:
cmake -C ../blender/build_files/cmake/config/blender_developer.cmake .

make.bat now supports optional parameters to restrict
the formatting to a specific folder. Multiple paths
may be given
example:
make.bat format source/blender/blenkernel source/blender/gpu
SVN takes a long time to sync even if there are no updates,
the `code_update` parameter gives the option opt out of the
SVN updates.
This is a developer option, people just wanting to build
blender and not do any development are highly recommended
to keep using the `update` method.
make.bat was starting to become hard to maintain, this refactors it into separate batch files for each stage of the process.
