[Bf-committers] Default autosmooth angle

yes, it’s intentional, 180 is NOP on autosmotth itself, yet it generates the
loop normals data layer needed by all custom normals new stuff.

Further more, when there is a clnor layer of data on a mesh (e.g. after 
applying
a modifier affecting custom normals, or importing from CAD tool, etc.),
autosmooth is always 'disabled' (i.e. reference normals are always computed
as if angle was 180), so better to use it as default.

Anyway, there is no real good default value, depends on habits and tastes
of users - and the models themselves!
