This makes it possible to implicitly convert a PT of a derived type to a (C)PT of a base type, without needing to first convert it to a regular pointer. This also applies to moves, which are now more efficient due to the lack of need for ref/unref pair even if the pointer type is not exactly the same.
I'm not sure why they were ifdeffed out, but they should certainly be available so that it is possible to compare WeakPointerTo in a thread-safe manner.
This restores the old behaviour from before 29a08932ea92bcf0e953994c524cafc1717930b5, which makes in_window true during pointer capture (ie. click-and-drag) even if the cursor leaves the window.
X11 behaviour is already not to adjust in_window.

Problem is that WGL is strict about binding context in different thread while it is still bound in another thread. Either way we need to make sure the draw thread is not rendering, so if you call get_screenshot() from a thread other than the draw thread, it uses the GraphicsEngine to wait until the draw thread is idle and then asks it to do the get_screenshot().
Fixes#360
Only the basics are supported; the __members__ or iter interface is not supported at this time.
See also #351 for discussion on pulling in enum34 module.
Parenting a BulletVehicle's wheels to the chassis-BulletRigidBodyNode now works as expected. Previously doing this would make the wheels appear to be positioned one frame ahead of the chassis, because the wheel's position were synced before the chassis' position.
For more information see issue #250.

Bullet automatically interpolate most bodies for us (for example the "chassis"
of a BulletVehicle), but BulletVehicle-wheels must be manually interpolated by
calling 'updateWheelTransform()'. Otherwise they will slowly rubber-band
between their intended position and a position one frame ahead in time.
For more information see issue #250.
This problem occurs when movePointer is used to reset the mouse back to the center every frame, a very common way to implement mouselook on Windows (which has no relative mouse mode). Any movement between the last event loop run and the call to movePointer is destroyed, resulting in quite choppy mouselook in most implementations.
The solution is for getPointer to always return the latest mouse cursor position. This goes a long way but is not 100% perfect; see the discussion in #359 for other solutions.
Fixes#359
If a class inherits from ReferenceCount, it can be destructed by downcasting to ReferenceCount, so it should not be an obstacle to properly clean it up when such a class is returned from C++.
This issue comes up when a CycleData is returned via MemoryUsagePointers, which is not exposed so is wrapped as NodeReferenceCount instead, which has a protected destructor.
I think there was some confusion about how set_aux_rgba (and friends) worked; it seems the original intent was to toggle each individual buffer whereas it is actually interpreted as a count of how many of these buffers should be enabled. We should try to clarify the API and/or replace it with something better as soon as possible.
