[Bf-committers] Fracture Tools don't work in Blender 2.57

[Bastien Montagne]

Sorry for previous mail, forgot to check the subject :/

As I was at it, after fixing fracture_ops.py api problems, I enhanced (I 
hope…) both the fracture Group tool, and the UI:

Heavily reviewed fracture group behavior:
   * It now does a (very basic) optimization by roughly detecting if a 
cutter could affects a given object.
   * Now, it really fractures objects: you get “difference shards”, ie 
parts of object outside of any cutter, and “intersect shards”, ie parts 
of object inside cutters – taking into account situations where cutters 
intersect each others !
   * And optionally, you can choose whether to get only diff or inter 
shards.

Also changed UI part:
   * Now using a single operator for both simple and group fracture.
   * Put settings properties in a collection in scene object.
   * This allows for the tool to be fired from a “tool panel”, like e.g. 
cloud generator, and to get rid of this ugly exe property!

All that is packed in the tracker: 
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/download.php/153/469/21793/15951/object_fracture_2.1.tar.bz2

But it’s obvioulsy to big of a change for me to commit it in svn, so I’d 
like to have your feelings about it!

Cheers,
Bastien
