pyassimp returned a list instead of a numpy array when the normals were
empty. This also applies to texture coordinates and other stuff which is
explicitly converted in _finalize_mesh.
64-bit Compatibility:
The first four characters of a String material property would be cut
off. A String's length is defined in structs.py as a c_size_t
variable, which is 8 bytes wide on 64-bit Python. However, when an
aiString is used as an aiMaterial property in C/C++, the length is
truncated down to a 4-byte value on 64-bit machines (see
MaterialSystem.cpp aiMaterial::AddProperty() for details). A new
struct was declared in structs.py (MaterialPropertyString) and used
in core._get_properties().
Python 3.3 Compatibility:
The built-in function hasattr() changed in Python 3.2 to not
trap exceptions, which means a NULL pointer ValueException now
escaped when checking if a pointer was valid (hasattr(obj,
'contents') in core.call_init()) (see
http://bugs.python.org/issue9666 for details). A new helper
function was defined that preserves the legacy functionality of
trapping the exceptions (helper.hasattr_silent()) and used
throughout the code as a replacement for hasattr().
String objects would import as "bytes" rather than as a
string. This was most noticeable in the key names for
material properties, where the trailing ' of a bytes object
would remain after it was converted to a string. The
solution was to call decode() on the bytes object using
utf-8 decoding. This applies to various parts of core.py.
Closes#35
Since the new SDL based viewer is much better suited to interactive exploration, simplify
the basic OpenGL viewer to make it an easy introductive read.

Before, neither the texture index nor its semantic were kept in the
returned output. Now GetMaterialProperties returns a (name, color,
material, texture) tuple. Name is the name of the material. Color is a
dictionary of color properties. Material is a dictionary of material
properties. Textures is a triply nested dictionary addressed by the
following: textures[index][semantic][key]. See assimp documentation for
the meaning of index, semantic, and keys in general.

the strings used in materials and elsewhere in assimp. Because of this,
in PyAssimp3 strings in materials don't work properly on 64 bits
platforms. This commit adds a StringUInt32 ctypes structure and use it
in GetMaterialProperties as a workaround.
