Since there seemed to be no way to make pre-main initialization work for statically linking the library, I went back to using a CPP file that includes all the NiObject files and registers each one with the ObjectRegistry.

- There are no longer any defines, things like inheritance class name, NIF attribute variables, and default constructor code are all visible without looking at another file.
- All non-custom parts of the Object files are now totally identical and in the same order, so it will be easier to compare them.
- NiObjects are now completely self-contained.  To remove them from Niflib, you have only to exclude their CPP file from the build.  To add new ones, you only have to include their new CPP file.
- Making a change to a NiObject implementation file only causes that one file to be re-compiled, which is generally much quicker than before since the large obj_define and obj_impl files do not have to be parsed or compiled.
- There are no longer any "Internal" versions of the Read, Write, asString, FixLinks, or GetRefs functions.  Now there is just one function for each of these with pre and post custom code areas (except for GetRefs which I didn't think needed it.)
- Updates to the hierarchy in the XML should now be almost completely automatic.  All that should be necessary to make an update is to add any new NiObject CPP files to the build.
- Changes to the generated parts of the NiObject files can now be made at any time, and immediately applied to all NiObjects without editing each existing one.

Updated Niflib to the latest XML which adds support for bhkMeshShape, NiMultiTextureProperty, NiRawImageData, and NiSequence.

Objects now have a Create methods and register themselves in the global object map with pre-main initialization, making obj_factories.cpp obsolete.

Re-exposed TYPE constants and marked them NIFLIB_API, making the TypeConst function obsolete.  You now must use NiObject::TYPE instead of NiObject::TypeConst() again.

More documentation improvements.  Added documentation to NiDynamicEffect-derived objects, removed some obsolete examples, and replaced remaining references to "block" with "object" wherever possible.

Laying the groundwork for Niflib to be able to work on systems with different endian types.  All Read/Write functions now take NifInfo structures which are based by const reference.  These are also passed into the NifStream functions so they will have access to the requested endian type of the NIF as well.  Also added endian detection and swapping functions.

Moved TypeConst function implementation out of header file. Hopefully should fix GCC visibility issue.
Fixed GetIDString virtual function missmatch that was causing the name not to show up when the function was called from a NiObjectRef.
Added Python-specific operator functions to Ref to prevent the wrapper from crashing on Null Refs.

Fixed Niflib DLL compile.  All public functions should now be marked with either NIFLIB_API or NIFLIB_HIDDEN.  May have missed a few here or there but they should be noticed eventually.

Realized that Niflib was not compiling in DLL mode, so started working on fixing that.  All NiObject classes need to have NIFLIB_API and NIFLIB_HIDDEN put on each public function, rather than marking the whole class.  Still a lot left to change, but niflib.cpp and ComplexShape.cpp both compile without errors in DLL mode now.

Added NiGeometry::ApplyTransforms function to automatically zero out the transforms of a mesh and apply them to its vertices.
Added NiGeometryData::Transform function to apply an arbitrary transform to all vertices and normals of a mesh (used by above).
Added NiNode::PropagateTransform function to apply a NiNode's local transform to its children and then zero it out.
Fixed NiTriShapeData to properly set numTriangles when SetTriangles is called.
NiGeometry::BindSkin function now automatically propagates transforms of NiNodes between the root and the meshes and then applies those transforms to the vertices, making the NiSkinData overall transform unnecessary.
Removed "set root to scene root" option as it is no longer necessary.

Corrected Shape/particle hierarchy by adding NiGeometry and NiGeometryData.  This is the correct hierarchy and having particles come back as derived from NiTriBasedGeomData was causing problems.
Commented out printf commands in triangle stripper.

Replaced _WRITE, _READ, _STRING, AND _FIXLINKS defines with the corresponding internal function call.
Replaced STANDARD_INTERNAL_FUNCTIONS with the internal function signatures.
Made my Doxygen config file use relative paths and added it to SVN so everyone can generate the same documentation for themselves.
Removed includes WZ added to ComplexShape.  These were not missing, they are up to the user to include if they wish.
