API Changes

 * The Alembic exporter operator `bpy.ops.wm.alembic_export` changed the keyword argument `visible_layers_only` to `visible_objects_only`. The semantics have not been changed.

Curve Profile
The `CurveProfile` type was added which allows the construction and evaluation of a 2D curve. 

The widget supports arbitrary curves rather than an X to Y mapping, so the result of evaluation is a 2D vector.

Python Environment
Blender's embedded Python now ignores environment variables such as PYTHONPATH, pass the argument --python-use-system-env to enable Python environment variables.
