The values of StaticPrintConfig derived objects were searched by a name
walking through a huge chained if.
Now they are being mapped with a std::map.
Also initialization of StaticPrintConfig classes from their ConfigOptionDef
defaults is done by maintaining a single global definition of each
StaticPrintConfig derived class, and a new instance is initialized
from this static copy.
Also the ConfigOption instances are casted using static_cast
wherever possible, and their types are verified by a virtual type() method.
This approach avoids insiginificant performance penalty of a dynamic_cast.
Also the compare and clone methods were added to ConfigOption,
and the cloning & compare work on binary values, not by serialization.
discover_horizontal_shells() fron Perl to C++, where
the already calculated bridge direction was being lost.
Improved constness of the debug methods
void export_region_slices_to_svg(const char *path) const;
void export_region_fill_surfaces_to_svg(const char *path) const;
cleanly on Windows & Linux. There is still a work on OSX:
The XS module has to be linked without perl.lib and with
the following parameters to produce a bundle: -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup
Removed the Perl dependencies on Encode, Encode::Locale and Unicode::Normalize.
Added dependency on boost::locale.
Added encode_path, decode_path, normalize_utf8 functions to Slic3r.xs
Slic3r.xs has been made mostly utf8 safe by using the boost::nowide library,
thanks to @alexrj for the idea.
Simplified the encode_path / decode_path stuff:
wxWidgets are unicode already, so there is no need to decode_path() from it.
Perl / win32 interfacing is non-unicode, so decode_path() is executed
on ARGV just at the beginning of the perl scripts.

Change of the PlaceholderParser:
All vector configuration values stored into the PlaceholderParser
are expected to be addressed by the extruder ID, therefore
if a vector configuration value is addressed without an index,
a current extruder ID is used.
Also a small fix of fan handling: The fan speed is set to zero
at the start of the G-code if the cooling for the initial extruder
is disabled.
perimeters if not necessary, don't take the bridging time into account
when slowing down the print.
Removed Extruder & GCodeWriter Perl bindings.
Improved Extruder for constness.
Refactored GCode::m_elapsed_time to struct ElapsedTime.
Removed GCode.pm
Removed the Perl bindigns for AvoidCrossingPerimeters, OozePrevention, SpiralVase, Wipe
Changed the std::set of extruder IDs to vector of IDs.
Removed some MSVC compiler warnings, removed obnoxious compiler warnings when compiling the Perl bindings.
Removed the questionable Pressure Advance feature. It is better to use the Pressure Advance implemented into a firmware.
Added a C++ implementation of GCodeReader and SpiralVase, thanks to @alexrj
Added a C++ implementation of GCodeTimeEstimator, thanks to @lordofhyphens
When extruding supports, the support is interleaved with interface
if possible (when extruded with the same extruder).
Otherwise the base is extruded first.
