Problem is that the particle systems in the cycles database are not
stored in a well-defined order. This means the particle_id for dupli
objects can not simply be assigned using a global running index during
sync.
Now the particle index is assigned locally for each particle system.
When transferring particle data to the device as a single texture, the
particle indices are offset based on the final order of particle systems
in the database.

This gives much worse results on mango footage (see 04_2e)
so disabling for now for until proper prediction model is landed.
The thing is, currently blender sends input coordinates as the guess to
region tracker and in case of fast motion such an early out ruins the track.
Issue was caused by cycles setting scene frame which will update scene for
all the layers (not just visible ones) which confuses depsgraph making
objects which are needed as dependency are not really evaluated.
Made it so setting frame via scene.frame_set() which check whether update
need to be flushed to an invisible objects and do this if so.
Not ideal solution but seems to be safest at this point.
Blender Internal shader nodes.
All nodes now use the `nodestack_get_vec` function to convert whatever
input values are connected to the desired type, instead of using the
stack values directly regardless of what they contain.
Note that this might break old node setups that have been adapted to the
faulty behavior, but as discussed in the bug report the 2.70 version is
the right time to fix this.
Issue was caused by curve orco calculation for rendering being freed
curve path and not calculating it back.
This left depsgraph in a state that it believed all the object data
is up to date but in fact some parts of data was freed by convert
blender.
Now made it so path is not being freed by render thread. This is
rather a workaround actually because ideally render thread need
to use copy-on-write here or at least use local cache here. But
current logic should be closer to what was happening in previous
release.

The BI renderer applies modifiers //after// changing the obmat of the
respective object (for the first instance it encounters). Before
rB6940bf0 the original obmat (omat) was stored inside dupli object data,
which was removed in favor of local omat variables due to hackishness
and redundancy. Problem with BI is that all the obmats have to be
overridden in relation to each other to produce the correct modifier
results (here: offset object for the array modifier).
The patch restores the old (messy) behavior for BI by first overriding
**all** the obmats at once from duplis, then creating render instances,
then cleaning up.
A better solution would be to avoid these modifier hacks in BI
altogether and properly evaluate them in the original object space, but
that requires far greater changes to the old code base, and is out of
scope for bugfixing.
Issue was caused by undefined object update order and in some
cases NULL pointer will be de-referenced.
Added on-demand curve path calculation, just the same creepy call
of BKE_displist_make_curveTypes(). This violates DAG and might
end up in a difficult to troubleshoot race condition if there'll
be some issues with how dependencies are calculated in DAG, but
this is the easiest and safest way to solve the bug at this stage,
BI.
The shaderfrom setting in the node editor only makes sense for "new"
shading nodes (cycles), otherwise it should be ignored and default to
SNODE_SHADER_OBJECT.
This commit implements dissolving of edges which were used
to triangulate non-flat faces. This slows things down a bit
(around 5% on heave mesh with all faces triangulated).
We could improve speed of dissolve a bit here (so not a bell
to add an option for triangulation yet).
Also fixed wrong edge origindex mapping.

To make a generic OSL shader connectable to other nodes, the parameters
must be declared via "input" and "output" child elements:
<osl_shader name="tex" src="./osl/stripes.osl">
<input name="Stripes" type="int" />
<output name="ColorOut" type="color" />
</osl_shader>
`name` must be the same as the OSL shader parameter name.
`type` must be one of float, int, color, vector, point, normal, closure,
string (matching cycles socket types)
Beyond this the OSL script nodes then work just like all other nodes.
OSL parameter sockets can be connected to other cycles nodes:
<connect from="checker color" to="tex Stripes" />
<connect from="tex ColorOut" to="floor_closure color" />
They can set default values for the input sockets by attributes of the
main node element:
<osl_shader name="tex" src="./osl/stripes.osl" Stripes="3" >
<input name="Stripes" type="int" />
<output name="ColorOut" type="color" />
</osl_shader>
This system of specifying custom attributes should probably be changed,
since it can easily create name conflicts and arbitrarily long elements.
But that is a different issue to be solved for all nodes in general.
