Spline movement controls movements of server-side controlled units (monster movement, taxi movement, etc).
Proper implementation of effects such as charge, jump, cyclic movement will rely on it.
However, need improve our states system before.
Technical changes:
* Added linear, catmullrom and bezier3 splines which based on client's algorthims. They can be reused for proper transport position interpolation.
* Precission increased. There are no more position desync issues since client's position calculation formulas used.
* Now possible to move by paths with multiple points, send whole path to client.

Original port for Trinity (ref #4629) Chaplain and Venugh
With the following incremental fixes during my review:
- Restore flightmaster end grid pre-loading
- Fix uninitialized Creature::m_path_id
- Add missing trinity_string entries for .movegens command
- Fix a bug in WaypointMovementGenerator that would trigger unexpected pausing at waypoints for various amounts of time
Known issues:
- Errors like WaypointMovementGenerator::LoadPath creature XXX (Entry: YYYYY GUID: ZZZZZZ) doesn't have waypoint path id: 0.
This is caused by bad DB data. This commit didn't "break" it.
Do not forget to re-run CMake before compiling.
- Added missing space to 'if', 'for', 'while' and 'switch' when it's followed by '('
- Added missing space after a comma and remove space before comma (with some exceptions)
- Remove trailing spaces
- Convert tab to spaces
Note: Only affects files with extension "cpp" and "h" under /src/server
* Call spell effect handlers in 4 modes:
- SPELL_EFFECT_HANDLE_LAUNCH - called when spell is launched (cast just finished)
- SPELL_EFFECT_HANDLE_LAUNCH_TARGET - called when spell is launched for each target in spell target map
- SPELL_EFFECT_HANDLE_HIT - called when spell hits its destination
- SPELL_EFFECT_HANDLE_HIT_TARGET - called when spell hits it's target from spell target map
*Correctly implement SPELL_EFFECT_TRIGGER_SPELL, SPELL_EFFECT_TRIGGER_SPELL_WITH_VALUE, SPELL_EFFECT_TRIGGER_MISSILE_SPELL_WITH_VALUE, SPELL_EFFECT_TRIGGER_MISSILE_SPELL
*Remove spell system hacks which became obsolete with this commit
Core/SpellScripts:
add OnEffectLaunch, OnEffectLaunchTarget, OnEffectHit, OnEffectHitTarget hooks for new effect handle modes and remove OnEffect hook.
A generic rule of thumb how to update your scripts (will work for nearly all cases) for spell system noobs:
if your spell script used GetHitXXXX function, you need to use OnEffectHitTarget, otherwise use
OnEffectHit
