Found and fixed a few problems here, but strangely I don't recall seeing any of these a few months ago when this conversion (probably last) worked well ...

Instead of running vcredist, which can fail when installing as normal user, have the DLLs
like our zip distribution bundled already inside install dir.
- VBO UV Edge display wasn't allocating a large enough array for drawing.
- VBO UV Edge drawing was using an edge flag with faces.
- notifier for modifiers updating the UV window.
- pose bone 'matrix_local' wasn't well named since it didn't work like object or regular bones.
- pose bone matrix values for rna had array access rather then 4x4 matrix access.
note: for pose bones update scripts by renaming 'matrix_local' --> 'matrix_basis'
This added a poll function to the Panel base class but this means that all panels register as having a poll() function which is called a lot and does nothing, raising an exception and removing it because of how python implements hasattr().
Found when checking why exceptions were continuously raised on redraw.
Martin, can you check on netrender?
Rather then applying the proposed fix, enabling 'Apply Transform' works in almost all cases including the reported one.
There are some files that don't work with 'Apply Transform', which is why the option is worth keeping.
also remove unneeded calls to paint_facesel_test()
Fixed old annoyance in Search menu, with a load of object-mode
operators showing up in editmode.
It's much cleaner now, but it will take further work and
investigation to have context & polls work satisfying for all cases.
ZCombine node in compositor ignored alpha values. Enabling it
would break compatibility though, so it's a tickbox option now.
Patch provided by reporter, Martin Lubich. Thanks!
Now object_apply_mat4() can be used as the reverse of object_to_mat4().
Noticeable result is fly mode and 'Apply Visual Transform' dont jump when deltas are used, also means setting matrix from python works as expected.
- Reverse vector * matrix multiplication order. now this matches how numpy works.
- Disallow 'matrix * vec' and 'quat * vec', now it raises an error.
- Add missing in-place multiply 'vec *= quat'
Many scripts will need to be updated for this but at least it will error rather then failing silently.
Was causing compile troubles with MSVC:
