While SCons building system was serving us really good for ages it's no longer
having much attention by the developers and started to become quite a difficult
task to maintain.
What's even worse -- there started to be quite serious divergence between SCons
and CMake which was only accumulating over the releases now. The fact that none
of the active developers are really using SCons and that our main studio is also
using CMake spotting bugs in the SCons builds became quite a difficult task and
we aren't always spotting them in time.
Meanwhile CMake became really mature building system which is available on every
platform we support and arguably it's also easier and more robust to use.
This commit includes:
- Removal of actual SCons building system
- Removal of SCons git submodule
- Removal of documentation which is stored in the sources and covers SCons
- Tweaks to the buildbot master to stop using SCons submodule
(this change requires deploying to the server)
- Tweaks to the install dependencies script to skip installing or mentioning
SCons building system
- Tweaks to various helper scripts to avoid mention of SCons folders/files
as well

This class did nothing but print out extensions if they were found.
Instead, the code from bge.logic.PrintGLInfo() is now printed as the
Rasterizer is initialized. This gives better information, and it removes
some GL code from KX_PythonInit.cpp (the PrintGLInfo method now calls
the Rasterizer to print the information).

The only use we had for RAS_StorageIM was to render derived meshes using
Blender's mesh drawing. This is now handled as a special case in
RAS_OpenGLRasterizer instead of in RAS_StorageIM.
We are now left with RAS_StorageVA and RAS_StorageVBO. At the moment
vertex arrays are still the default since our vertex array with display
lists implementation is still much faster than our VBO code in a lot of
cases. As we improve our VBO code, we can drop vertex arrays since
Blender's minimum OpenGL version is being bumped up to 2.1, which
supports VBOs.
This patch allows the game engine to keep running while performing things like PNG compression and disk I/O.
As an example, my crowd simulation rasterizer saves a screenshot for every frame. This now takes up 13 msec per frame, which was 31 msec before this patch. Effectively, it allows the simulation to save every frame and still run at 60 FPS.

GPUBuffer rendering is now done using vertex buffers.
Vertex arrays are completely removed from GL 3.2 core profile, so we'll
have to do this change at some point anyway.
This commit, though big, is not modifying blender in any way. Use should
be exactly as if the vetex buffer option is constantly on.
This patch makes independant the override camera zoom and the default camera object zoom. The override zoom is 2.0f and the camera object zoom is computed with the RegionView3D camera zoom.
These features are only used for the embedded BGE, so there's no compatibility issues with the blenderplayer.
I let the override zoom with a setter to allow later to create an override camera in blenderplayer easily.
Tested with the 3 framing modes in embedded and standalone.
This reverts commit cd24871706411b2afd6e098e2b7c95c94bc2de38.
The commit re-introduced problems with starting the game engine
multiple times in the same run of Blender.
The issue was caused by the following construction:
def = env['SOMETHING']
defs.append('SOMETHING_MORE')
Since first assignment was actually referencing environment option it was totally
polluted hawing weird and wonderful side effects on all other areas of Blender.
- rename WITH_EXTERNAL_AUDASPACE to WITH_SYSTEM_AUDASPACE.
- rename C/PYAUDASPACE to AUDASPACE_C/PY
- simplifying cmake defines and includes.
- fixing include paths and enabling WITH_SYSTEM_AUDASPACE for windows.
- fixing scons building.
- other minor build system fixes.
The expression module now uses an EXP prefix and it follows a
distribution similar to blender.
Additionally the hash function in EXP_HashedPtr.h was simplified and the
files EXP_C-Api.h &.EXP_C-Api.cpp were deleted because were unused.

Disabling display lists for legacy ATI cards since they don't support display lists well.
Also removing an unused variable from the display list rasterizer.
This will make transitions from older versions of Blender easier since VSYNC_ON
will be the default. This could have been changed in a do_version, but the vsync
code has yet to see an official release, so I figured this would be a bit nicer.
Also, this makes VSYNC_ON the default for new scenes as well.
window, the game would stop drawing in the first and mess up the OpenGL state of
the second.
Also fixes glPushAttrib/glPopAttrib getting out of sync in some cases.
