-Add new variations: crackle, dc_perlin.
-Make default palette interp mode be linear instead of step.
-Make summary tab the selected one in the Info tab.
-Allow for highlight power of up to 10. It was previously limited to 2.
--Bug fixes
-Direct color calculations were wrong.
-Flattening was not applied to final xform.
-Fix "pure virtual function call" error on shutdown.
--Code changes
-Allow for array precalc params in variations by adding a size member to the ParamWithName class.
-In IterOpenCLKernelCreator, memcpy precalc params instead of a direct assign since they can now be of variable length.
-Add new file VarFuncs to consolidate some functions that are common to multiple variations. This also contains texture data for crackle and dc_perlin.
-Place OpenCL versions of these functions in the FunctionMapper class in the EmberCL project.
-Add new Singleton class that uses CRTP, is thread safe, and deletes after the last reference goes away. This fixes the usual "delete after main()" problem with singletons that use the static local function variable pattern.
-Began saving files with AStyle autoformatter turned on. This will eventually touch all files as they are worked on.
-Add missing backslash to CUDA include and library paths for builds on Nvidia systems.
-Add missing gl.h include for Windows.
-Remove glew include paths from Fractorium, it's not used.
-Remove any Nvidia specific #defines and build targets, they are no longer needed with OpenCL 1.2.

-Allow for pre/post versions of dc_bubble, dc_cylinder and dc_linear whereas before they were omitted.
-When saving a file with multiple embers in it, detect if time values are all the same and if so, start them at zero and increment by 1 for each ember.
-Allow for numerous quality increases to be coalesced into one. It will pick up at the end of the current render.
-Show selection highlight on variations tree in response to mouse hover. This makes it easier to see for which variation or param the current mouse wheel action will apply.
-Make default temporal samples be 100, whereas before it was 1000 which was overkill.
-Require the shift key to be held with delete for deleting an ember to prevent it from triggering when the user enters delete in the edit box.
-This wasn't otherwise fixable without writing a lot more code.
--Bug fixes
-EmberGenome was crashing when generating a sequence from a source file with more than 2 embers in it.
-EmberGenome was improperly handling the first frame of a merge after the last frame of the loop.
-These bugs were due to a previous commit. Revert parts of that commit.
-Prevent a zoom value of less than 0 when reading from xml.
-Slight optimization of the crescents, and mask variations, if the compiler wasn't doing it already.
-Unique file naming was broken because it was looking for _# and the default names ended with -#.
-Disallow renaming of an ember in the library tree to an empty string.
-Severe bug that prevented some variations from being read correctly from params generated outside this program.
-Severe OpenCL randomization bug. The first x coordinates of the first points in the first kernel call of the first ember of a render since the OpenCL renderer object was created were not random and were mostly -1.
-Severe bug when populating xform selection distributions that could sometimes cause a crash due to roundoff error. Fix by using double.
-Limit the max number of variations in a random ember to MAX_CL_VARS, which is 8. This ensures they'll look the same on CPU and GPU.

-Add a global rand with a lock to be used very sparingly.
-Use a map instead of a vector for bad param names in Xml parsing.
-Prefix affine interpolation mode defines with "AFFINE_" to make their purpose more clear.
-Allow for variations that change state during iteration by sending a separate copy of the ember to each rendering thread.
-Implement this same functionality with a local struct in OpenCL. It's members are the total of all variables that need to change state within an ember.
-Add Contains() function to Utils.h.
-EmberRender: print names of kernels being printed with --dump_kernel option.
-Clean up EmberTester to handle some of the recent changes.
-Fix various casts.
-Replace % 2 with & 1, even though the compiler was likely doing this already.
-Add new file Variations06.h to accommodate new variations.
-General cleanup.
