job and frame status cleanup (move to the model module)
record transitions between states in job to be able to get (among others) the started and finished time.

Don't add empty tag if not tags have been specified.

Reported by Brant Anderson (by email)

baking and render options for tags on slaves (default true for both means a slave can do all jobs by default)

invalid operator return value when downloading results from a job with no finished frames

render jobs tags weren't set at all.

Fix a typo "Confgiguration" -> "Configuration" 

Patch by Tobias Kummer (tobkum), thanks! 

Reported by Ron Proctor

netrender didn't recursively create missing directory for user specified temporary paths.

Also added environment variables and user expansion to properly support env vars and user (~ and ~user) in paths.

change to the repatching and local naming algorithms to better support different files with same name and dependency folder hierarchies.

use an enum property for VCS job type (much more user friendly this way)

New web ui work by Philippe Van Hecke: JQuery ui theme selector.

Support for secure connections between Master/client/slave using SSL/HTTPS

Fixed a bug with total job time on web interface (wrong value)

adding missing images in css folder

new jquery-based web interface developed by Philippe Van Hecke (great thanks)
Works in parallel with the existing html interface (both have a link pointing to the other) which might very well be phased out at some point.

use threading for interprocess communication. Don't stall slave communication when rendering/baking process output blocks. This enables running slow baking and rendering jobs correctly without the slave disconnecting from the master. It also makes slaves much more responsive to cancelling jobs on the master.

add save on job option (default false) to save the current file before sending a rendering blender job.

typo prevented returning proper content-typeé

Thanks to Philippe Van Hecke for bug finding.

- distributed point cache baking
- (baking fluids or anything else needs to be added but is not a hard task)
- master support getting all results as a zip (rendering, baking or otherwise), available as a link on the job's page in the web interface
- framework to support multiple result files per frame/task (needed for baking)

wip feature: distributed point cache baking. Distributed baking works but results are sent back to master/client yet. Feature is disabled in the UI for this reason.
new feature: job and slave tags, enables filtering slaves for specific jobs
  jobs are dispatched to a slave only it has no tags or all the job's tags
  Render jobs have the tag "render" by default while baking jobs the tag "baking"
UI: Web interface additions to reflect tags and job subtypes (render/baking)
bug fix: reseting a completed job correctly resets the status to queued

- Support for dynamic painting point cache (patch by Philippe Van Hecke)
- Fix job log name generation to not exceed filename limits when using large chunks
- Cleaning up duplicated code for point caches, fluid and multires between client and repath module

correcting smoke domain modifier type restriction

Patch by Philippe Van Hecke

- fix handling of pointcache dependencies on slave (correct repathing) and on client (bad frame dependency range)
- add Force Upload option on master to force dependencies upload and download (don't reuse local copies outside of slave cache)
- add links back to main page on job web page
- client limit dependencies to rendered frame range (it used to add all point cache frames)

Thanks to Philippe Van Hecke for raising the issue by email.

[#29648] patch for netrender: correctly send smoke cache domain

Both by Philippe Van Hecke

Render engine support was expended to be able to specify non-builtin engines.

indentation edits and copy pyrimid from contrib (where I had made some edits), removed so this wont happen again.

fix error when sending thumbnail to master

Fix for #26867

Hunted down and debugged with great help from Geoff Murphy

* Scan for master failed and gave an script error. 

Based on patch [#28108] by Wintch Analyzer

Reported by Tobias Kummer. Thanks! :) 

by Wintch Analyzer 

moving master working path initialization before connection creation

also added error checks and prints to debug an invalid internal state (related to another tracker entry)

exception safeguard in render engine
fix module import broken by someone else

- remove/comment unused variables
- remove unused imports
- fixed some bugs using incorrect variables

fix problem on web interface with blacklisted slaves no longer in slave list

better stream handling when uploading files
Might solve the problem with OS X masters

Reported by Ramon Nieto

Added a better error message when the current file is not saved.

Add rna callback to server address property so that it correctly checks if the server exists when the value changes.
