[Bf-committers] Patch to add a "replace" operator for vertex groups...

[Campbell Barton]

Functionality could be useful, but buttons are getting a bit cramped
there also `assign/remove` operate on selection, replace would operate
on `all` which may be a little confusing, also, what to do with hidden
vertices?

But still, not sure this is really such a common thing to want to do,
how about add a `clear` option to the menu within the panel?

Then its just clear+assign.
