This was SVN commit r24870.
GUIObjectBase is made a IGUIObject* to avoid including those headers
un-necessarily. Subsequent diffs ought to clean up the various of
pointers for that with a similar type with reference semantics.
Also:
- Add standard C and C++ headers (mostly cstring for memcpy, string and
vector) where needed.
- Swap out some includes for forward declarations
- Clean up un-necessary boost includes in precompiled and other headers.
- Clean up precompiled headers, including fewer things.
- Move ACPI to the windows-specific folder as it's included there only
and mostly specific to that platform.
Thanks Stan for the testing.

This was SVN commit r24352.
Previously we had a single culling frustum based on the main camera, and
any object outside the frustum would never get rendered, even if it
should actually contribute to shadows or reflections/refractions. This
caused ugly pop-in effects in the shadows and reflections while
scrolling.
Extend the renderer to support multiple cull groups, each with a
separate frustum and with separate lists of submitted objects, so that
shadows and reflections will render the correctly culled sets of
objects.
Update the shadow map generation to compute the (hopefully) correct
bounds and matrices for this new scheme.
Include terrain patches in the shadow bounds, so hills can cast shadows
correctly.
Remove the code that tried to render objects slightly outside the camera
frustum in order to reduce the pop-in effect, since that was a
workaround for the lack of a proper fix.
Remove the model/patch filtering code, which was used to cull objects
that were in the normal camera frustum but should be excluded from
reflections/refractions, since that's redundant now too.
Inline DistanceToPlane to save a few hundred usecs per frame inside
CCmpUnitRenderer::RenderSubmit.
Fixes#504, #579.
This was SVN commit r15445.
Add shadow filtering (PCF) option.
Fix ugly shadow saturation in old lighting mode.
Fix fancy water shader.
Fix camera matrix computation.
Support scissoring of camera frustum.
Optimise vertex skinning.
Inline various matrix functions.
Support filtering of the list of submitted models before a rendering
pass, for more precise culling.
Optimise water renderer (fixes#721, based on patch by ortalo).
Use scissoring when generating reflection/refraction textures.
Skip reflection/refraction texture generation when no water is visible.
Render alpha-blended objects differently (fixes#434).
Reduce shadow swimming effects.
This was SVN commit r9814.
Change lighting model for new maps to allow better overbrightness.
Cache player colours instead of loading from scripts every time the
renderer wants them.
This was SVN commit r9123.
