9c322c7e86 Moved ngon creating function from obj_import into BPyMesh so other importers can use it.
Exporter free's mesh vertex data each run (was causing memory errors when exporting fluidsim meshes... poke ken for Mesh.Unlink() since many meshes are still created)
Exporter had an indentation error also.
Added an NMesh wrapper around Mesh for importers to use, so as to work around slow 1 by 1 adding of data. used in upcoming flt_importer update.
Mesh cleanup now has the dangerous option to perform a cleanup on ALL mesh data. (needed it for a project)

086cb9d793 Added BPyMesh for mesh python mesh functions.
at the moment it only has meshWeight2Dict and dict2MeshWeight
  These allow you to deal with vertex weights as a list of dicts which makes scrips short and easy to understand.
   (kh_python, perhaps dict access to the python verts could replace this )

Used the above util functions to update mesh_cleanup.
Copied from the source

	'Material Clean', 'Remove unused materials.'
	'VGroups'
	'Group Clean', 'Remove vertex groups that have no verts using them.'
	'Weight Clean', 'Remove zero weighted verts from groups (limit is zero threshold).'
	'Weight Normalize', 'Make the sum total of vertex weights accross vgroups 1.0 for each vertex.'

Normalizing lets you see how much % of the vertex a bone owns just by looking at 1 of the bone weights.

Would be nice to have this functionality in Blender but theres not much room for new buttons in teh vgroup and material area :/

5dba8e798a Renamed clean_mesh.py to mesh_cleanup.py
Rewrote to use Kens Mesh module, much faster, cleaner and nicer UI. - Another use for PupBlock.
