Add slider to adjust the influence of weights relative to geometry distortion.
This allows subtle influences to be applied - without drastic changes in behavior.
This commit integrates the work done so far on the new dependency graph system,
where goal was to replace legacy depsgraph with the new one, supporting loads of
neat features like:
- More granular dependency relation nature, which solves issues with fake cycles
in the dependencies.
- Move towards all-animatable, by better integration of drivers into the system.
- Lay down some basis for upcoming copy-on-write, overrides and so on.
The new system is living side-by-side with the previous one and disabled by
default, so nothing will become suddenly broken. The way to enable new depsgraph
is to pass `--new-depsgraph` command line argument.
It's a bit early to consider the system production-ready, there are some TODOs
and issues were discovered during the merge period, they'll be addressed ASAP.
But it's important to merge, because it's the only way to attract artists to
really start testing this system.
There are number of assorted documents related on the design of the new system:

* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/DependencyGraph
There are also some user-related information online:

Kudos to everyone who was involved into the project:
- Joshua "Aligorith" Leung -- design specification, initial code
- Lukas "lukas_t" Toenne -- integrating code into blender, with further fixes
- Sergey "Sergey" "Sharybin" -- some mocking around, trying to wrap up the
project and so
- Bassam "slikdigit" Kurdali -- stressing the new system, reporting all the
issues and recording/writing documentation.
- Everyone else who i forgot to mention here :)
since enough bmesh operations can also take advantage of direct index lookups on verts/edges/faces.
developers note:
- EDBM_index_arrays_init/ensure/free -> BM_mesh_elem_table_ensure/init/free
- EDBM_vert/edge/face_at_index -> BM_vert/edge/face_at_index
- EDBM_uv_element_map_create/free -> BM_uv_element_map_create/free
- ED_uv_element_get -> BM_uv_element_get
add arguments to calculate normals when converting to bmesh:
BM_mesh_bm_from_me, DM_to_bmesh
This gives some speedup to undo (which didnt need to re-calculate vertex normals), and array modifier which doesnt need to calculate face normals at all
- BM_mesh_elem_toolflags_ensure / bmo_flag_layer_alloc / bmo_flag_layer_free / bmo_flag_layer_clear
- BM_mesh_select_flush
- EDBM_index_arrays_init
notes:
- mostly use openmp `sections` to split operations on vert/edge/face since this is a fairly minor change.
- split tool flag pool in 3, this means we can allocate exact sizes needed and iterate on them in threads without alloc'ing.
- when an edge exists across a quad, dont attempt to triangulate it. (such a case isn't so common anyway)
- silly mistake when checking if anything needed to be done in the modifier, percent was being checked for 1.0 even when not used.
- use unsigned ints only (where mixing signed/unsigned)
- turn heap_swap into an inline function, add SWAP_TVAL macro to swap values using a temp value as storage.
- added type checking SHIFT3/4 macros
also style cleanup for CTR_Map
