Also fix material slot index not being properly initialized to 1, this got clamped
from zero only on drawing the UI.

* Make the gap for the filtering options slightly bigger, so 1 row doesn't look so cluttered.
* Default Render Layer and Particle System list in the Properties Editor to 1 row as well, to save space.
Notes:
* Made those edits by full checking of py files, so I should have spoted most needed edits, yet it remains quite probable I missed a few ones, we'll fix if/when someone notice it...
* Also made some cleanup "on the road"!
The Emission panel now has a Use Modifier Stack option to emit particles from
the mesh with modifiers applied. Previously particles would only be emitted from
faces that exist in the original mesh. There are some caveats however:

Some RNA Properties were not updated in UI scripts after a recent refactoring
there removing "use_" prefix from some of the boolean properties (strangely
though, while every other property attached to SPHFluidSettings.flag has gone
from "use_factor_blah" to "factor_blah", use_factor_density still keeps the old
prefix).
Systematically adding some custom id to template_list using default UI_UL_list class, this one is commoly used more than once in an area, yielding collision issues if they do not have a custom id...
(Did not add those when I created that module, because I did not thought we would actually need them in usual UI code, but turned out I was wrong).
Also made some optimizations in those py gettext funcs, when i18n is disabled at build time, no need to do pyobject -> cstring -> pyobject conversions!.
It introduces a new (py-extendable and registrable) RNA type, UIList (roughly similar to Panel one), which currently contains only "standard" list's scroll pos and size (but may be expended to include e.g. some filtering data, etc.). This now makes lists completely independent from Panels!
This UIList has a draw_item callback which allows to customize items' drawing from python, that all addons can now use. Incidentally, this also greatly simplifies the C code of this widget, as we do not code any "special case" here anymore!
To make all this work, other changes were also necessary:
* Now all buttons (uiBut struct) have a 'custom_data' void pointer, used currently to store the uiList struct associated with a given uiLayoutListBox.
* DynamicPaintSurface now exposes a new bool, use_color_preview (readonly), saying whether that surface has some 3D view preview data or not.
* UILayout class has now four new (static) functions, to get the actual icon of any RNA object (important e.g. with materials or textures), and to get an enum item's UI name, description and icon.
* UILayout's label() func now takes an optional 'icon_value' integer parameter, which if not zero will override the 'icon' one (mandatory to use "custom" icons as generated for material/texture/... previews).
Note: not sure whether we should add that one to all UILayout's prop funcs?
Note: will update addons using template list asap.

The solver was mostly implemented by John Mansour at VPAC, with help from me and with funding from the AutoCRC. The SPH formulation is due to Gingold and Monaghan, and the smoothing kernel is due to Wendland.
This solver does not replace the old one; it is available as an option. Note that the new solver uses different units than the old one. The patch page has a couple of attachments that can be used to test the new solver, particularly sphclassical_dam_s0.01_grav.blend (ignore the earlier tests). The simulation in that file compares well with a physical experimental dam break; details in a paper by Changhong Hu and Makoto Sueyoshi, also referred to on that page.
- BMO_slot_copy now only copies compatible elements.
other minor changes
- don't use text.format(...), convention for UI scripts is C style string formatting.
- rename bmo_edgenet_prepare --> bmo_edgenet_prepare_exec
- float/double warning in bevel.

After 2.63 there was a bugfix to take object scale into account for the duplicated
objects, but this breaks compatibility on earlier files. Now there is an option to
control if the scale should be used or not.
Scale is used by default on newer files, and not used on older ones.
* Negate label in the Vertex Groups panel was misleading to the string buttons, rather then the check boxes. Fixed it by having 2 columns.
Not ideal still, but better! :)
Issue reported by Tobias Kummer. Thanks!
- More angular velocity modes to support creative effects.
- Renamed "Initial Rotation" to "Initial Orientation" to better reflect the functionality
- Renamed "Spin" angular velocity mode to "Velocity".
- Organized the rotation panel a bit better.
- Also some better names and tooltips for the different rotation values.
- The main problem was that in order to be accurate all particle
rotations have to be calculated incrementally so the only working
solution is to store rotations to the point cache (previously
this was only done for dynamic rotations). This can nearly double
the point cache size so it's not ideal to have this as a default
as in many cases you don't care about particle rotations.
- Particle rotation panel now has a new "enable" checkbox that
enables rotation calculations and the storing of rotations to
point cache.
- Old files will have rotations enabled via do_versions so that in
the worst case old files will only get bigger point caches, but no
sudden loss of particle rotations.

This was a test drive to see how painful the merge will be.
Next batches are:
- use desktop option for fullscreen
- multisampling option
- bullet collision mask
- python
- storage (vbo, dl, ...)
- lighting
[lighting still needs review]
[python could use review, although it should be straightforward]
[storage should be tested more I think]

* Created a panel for the embedded player
* Renamed the FPS option for the standalone player to Refresh Rate
* Moved framing options to display
* Made a button to launch the blender player from within blender (only tested on windows for now)

==UI==
* Added the option to change the exit key for the BGE. The UI currently just sets a number, and this feature most likely does not work for blenderplayer yet. More work on this to come.
* Removed the physics settings from the scene panel for the BGE.
* Added an Add menu in the logic brick header.

37522:
Moved control of the exit key away from the keyboard devices, and moved it to ketsjiengine.
Added setExitKey and getExitKey to the python API

There has been quite a bit of fuss about particle dupliobject rotation in 2.59, so here are some changes to make things work a bit more consistently and predictably in 2.60.
Much of the confusion has been about what the "Initial rotation" for particles actually means. Simply put it's just a vector that that the particles (and the dupliobjects) are aligned to and around which they can be rotated with the phase controls. I've now renamed these controls under a label "Rotation axis".
In 2.59 and previous versions the dupliobject's global x-axis was aligned to the particle rotation axis for non-hair particles. This meant that the object's own rotation (in addition to the particle rotation) could effect the dupliobjects' rotations. This old behavior can still be used with the "Rotation" option in the particle render panel when object/group is set as the visualization. This option is also activated automatically for old files to maintain backwards compatibility.
Now the default dupliobject rotations ignore the object's own rotation completely and align the object's tracking axis to the particle rotation axis. The tracking axis can be found under the Object tab -> Animation Hacks panel.
In 2.58 the way of calculating the rotation for hair didn't work as intended and enabled many non-functional combinations of options. For this reason I removed most of the rotation options for hair in 2.59. Now the options have been reimplemented better and the dupliobject's tracking axis is aligned to the hair direction by default (Rotation axis = Velocity / Hair). All the other axis options work too along with the phase controls.
