[Coral] slicing branch

[Andrea Interguglielmi]

I've pushed the slicing branch, everything seems to be working quite well.

Things left to be done:

- There's still some nodes to finish up. 

- I'll need to put the actual TBB multithreaded code in Node::doUpdate() and add some locks here and there, right now is just single thread.  

- The APIs are meant to change, stuff like updateSlice() or vec3ValuesSlice() are meant to go back to the old signature without the word Slice at the end.

This is a big change for Coral and I won't be merging onto the master branch for a while, until I have done some more extensive tests and demos. 

Cheers,

Andrea

Hi Andrea,

It builds fine out of the box, not sure how you want us to verify
the built code.

It looks the same. Any distinguishing features/attributes in the node ?

Regards

That's good, I've also merged the master branch so all the latest fixes you did are already there.

If you search for the word "Slice" you should see a lot of occurrences, and if you want to dig into the implementation details the best places to keep an eye on is Node::doUpdate().
