BLENDER: Fix potential stack overflow caused by a DOM object referencing itself.

Add general infrastructure to apply modifiers. Implement mirror and subdivision modifiers using existing stuff. Update BlenderDNA with related structures. git-svn-id: https://assimp.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/assimp/trunk@763 67173fc5-114c-0410-ac8e-9d2fd5bffc1f
