A Python API for the collision group / mask has been added:
```
KX_GameObject.collisionGroup
KX_GameObject.collisionMask
```
The maximum number of collision groups and masked has been increased from eight to sixteen.
This means that the max value of collisionGroup/Mask is (2 ** 16) - 1
EndObject will now activate objects that were sleeping and colliding with the removed object.
This means that, unlike now, if a rigid body starts sleeping on top of another object, when the latter is removed the rigid body will activate and fall, rather than float midair as before.
Collision groups that do not intersect used to collide on the first frame. Now this has been fixed so that they collide appropriately.

"Frequency" parameter is renamed to "Skip" in the LogicBricks sensors as it represents skipped frames between pulses.
Naming something (frequency) the exact opposite of what it represents (period) was the worst choice.
Also, a new BGE python attribute 'skippedTicks' was introduced. 'frequency' attribute is maintained but deprecated.
Internally, freq variable is used yet at DNA_Sensor to maintain compability and to avoid do_versions.

This change introduces a new hysteresis parameter that it will be added
or subtracted to/from the LOD distance to avoid popping when a LOD
object moves close to the LOD transition continuously.
Then, we have the following:
- a new LOD Hysteresis setting per scene (default 10%) which is located
in Scene context --> Level of Detail panel. This scene parameter also
will active/deactive the scene hysteresis.
- and a new LOD Hysteresis setting per object (default 10%) which is
located in Object context --> Levels of Detail panel. The LOD hysteresis
setting per object (if active) will overwrite the hysteresis setting per
scene value.
For the new blends: the hysteresis setting per scene would be active by
default and the per object would be inactive by default.
For the old blends: both hysteresis settings (per scene and per object)
would be inactive by default. A quick way to take advantage of this
feature for old blends would be to activate the hysteresis parameter in
the scene context -> Level of Detail panel

New Lock Z velocity parameter was added. This parameter avoid the micro-jumping.
By default it is actived except when you load an old file that it is deactived to keep former behaviour.
Additionally it was solved another issue related with the acceleration: That is the acceleration value was not taked into account and we had always the maximum linear velocity from the beginning of movement. Now the acceleration is taken into account until we reach the maximum velocity.
When you load an old file, the acceleration value is set to the maximum range (1000.f). This way we simulate a maximum velocity constant from the beginning of movement (former behaviour).

The replace mesh actuator was reconverting the mesh data which causes
conflicts with the LoD code. Instead, we just look for an already
converted mesh, which should already be in the scene.
This information only really seems to be for helping developers track
down bugs, and isn't really something the user needs. So, lets not spam
their console.
This patch removes the limitations on the number of action layers in the BGE.
BL_ActionManager currently uses a fixed array to keep track of the action layers. This patch replaces the fixed array with a map which allows for dynamic allocation of action layers. Layers (map items) are automatically removed on BL_ActionManager's update function. The maximum number of layers is roughly the value of a short. Backwards functionality is maintained and there are no changes to the Python API.

These were used in BL_CreatePhysicsObjectNew() in the converter. However, all
of the data put into KX_ObjectProperties was then copied again in
KX_ConvertBulletObject(). So, instead KX_ConvertBulletObject() now gathers the
information it needs itself, which avoid this odd double conversion step for
physics.
As a side-effect, the old code would result in static non-mesh objects with no bounds
set to still have triangle mesh bounds. This would result in no bounds for these objects.
If a bounds was set that required a mesh, non-mesh objects would become sphere bounds.
This is now true regardless of whether user bounds were set. In other words, static
non-mesh objects now use sphere bounds by default instead of mesh bounds. This might
slightly alter some games, but these objects should generally be set to No Collision
anyways.
This change introduces a new checkbox to deactivate the sensors, controllers and/or actuators. It is useful during the development phase to avoid delete sensors, controllers or actuators if you want to test something new.
NOC: The wiki page is being updated (the images mostly), but the feature is already in the 2.71 release log.

There was some deadlock due to trying manage Python's GIL. Instead of
continuing to fight with it, anything needing to call into Python while
conversion during lib loading is just delayed until it can be done in
the main thread.
Our deformer system really needs some work. First, there was a crash
with shape keys because BL_ModifierDeformer derives from
BL_ShapeDeformer, which means we try to execute shape keys even if we do
not have them. Also, for some reason BL_ModifierDeformer::Update() does
not work if called from the threaded loop, so it is skipped for now. In
other words, skinned updates on meshes with modifiers are currently not
run in parallel.
This required BL_ArmatureObject to have tighter control over armatures and poses.
Also, (Blender) armature objects are now copied instead of shared between
BL_ArmatureObjects to avoid race conditions. Also, due to the armature copy,
shape key drivers need a bit of extra fiddling to get the correct armature copy.
Initially OpenMP was used for threading, but then BLI_task was used due to being
less compiler dependent.
This commit also places time spent on skinning updates in the Animation
profiler category (was previously under the Rasterizer category).
The ultimate goal is to only allow the rasterizer to handle OpenGL and bf_gpu
calls. This commit creates a RAS_ILightObject interface and a RAS_OpenGLLight
implementation.
These types of meshes do not use material caching, and thus only the first created
material would be saved, but subsequent ones were not. Those subsequent materials
were then not being freed. Now we make sure to track all of the materials.
Note: Meshes that cannot make use of material caching (no materials or using face textures)
can still use up a large amount of RAM since a material is created per face.
If bge.logic.addScene() could not find the scene to add it would add the
first scene again, which is just silly. Now, if no scene is found, a warning
is printed and nothing is added.
Non-camera objects are not supported as cameras, and trying to use them
just causes memory errors (some bad typecasts are involved). When converting
a Scene Actuator, only use the object as a camera if it is actually a camera.
Also, the logic brick UI now filters for camera objects, which should help
avoid confusion.
The "Cast Shadows" worked as expected, but it can cause problem in some cases.
For example, when using strand render, we need disabling only buffer shadows,
but the previous changes made that impossible. "Cast Shadows" should be added
as a newly created option.
Since threaded object update we've disabled in-place
curve evaluation (in cases when applying curve modifier
with target curve non-evaluated yet).
This requires game engine to take care of DAG and object
evaluation (currently it's designed to export only objects
it able to render).
This workaround will make sure that curve_cache for curves
is up-to-date.
This allows us to make materials that don't cast ray shadows.
Turning off this property can reduce the rendering time slightly.
Note: RNA path is changed to "use_cast_shadows" as well. The older
path "use_cast_buffer_shadows" still can be used as its alias, but
it will be removed after updating some addons.

This patch changes most of the reamining degrees usage in internal code into radians.
I let a few which I know off asside, for reasons explained below - and I'm not sure to have found out all of them.
WARNING: this introduces forward incompatibility, which means files saved from this version won't open 100% correctly
in previous versions (a few angle properties would use radians values as degrees...).
Details:
- Data:
-- Lamp.spotsize: Game engine exposed this setting in degrees, to not break the API here I kept it as such
(using getter/setter functions), still using radians internally.
-- Mesh.smoothresh: Didn't touch to this one, as we will hopefully replace it completely by loop normals currently in dev.
- Modifiers:
-- EdgeSplitModifierData.split_angle, BevelModifierData.bevel_angle: Done.
- Postprocessing:
-- WipeVars.angle (sequencer's effect), NodeBokehImage.angle, NodeBoxMask.rotation, NodeEllipseMask.rotation: Done.
- BGE:
-- bConstraintActuator: Orientation type done (the minloc[0] & maxloc[0] cases). Did not touch to 'limit location' type,
it can also limit rotation, but it exposes through RNA the same limit_min/limit_max, which hence
can be either distance or angle values, depending on the mode. Will leave this to BGE team.
-- bSoundActuator.cone_outer_angle_3d, bSoundActuator.cone_inner_angle_3d: Done (note I kept degrees in BGE itself,
as it seems this is the expected value here...).
-- bRadarSensor.angle: Done.
