Extract faces directly from btConvexHullComputer (in initializePolyhedralFeatures), instead of reconstructing them, thanks to Josh Klint in #1654
PyBullet: use initializePolyhedralFeatures for convex hulls and boxes (to allow SAT)
PyBullet: expose setPhysicsEngineParameter(enableSAT=0 or 1) to enable Separating Axis Test based collision detection for convex vs convex/box and convex versus concave triangles (in a triangle mesh).
Split examples/SharedMemory/b3RobotSimulatorClientAPI_NoGUI.* and move to examples/SharedMemory/b3RobotSimulatorClientAPI_NoGUI.cpp and examples/SharedMemory/b3RobotSimulatorClientAPI_NoDirect.cpp
See https://github.com/erwincoumans/pybullet_robots ANYmal.py for an example.
PyBullet: Expose p.setPhysicsEngineParameter(solverResidualThreshold=1e-2) (b3PhysicsParamSetSolverResidualThreshold), increases solver performance a lot
PyBullet: Expose p.setPhysicsEngineParameter(contactSlop) Set it to zero, to avoid issues with restitution.
PyBullet: Expose isNumpyEnabled, return True is PyBullet was compiled with NUMPY support for 'getCameraImage'.
PyBullet: Expose p.ChangeDynamics(objectUid, linkIndex, contactProcessingThreshold), to avoid issues of speculative/predictive contacts with restitution.

use p.JOINT_FEEDBACK_IN_JOINT_FRAME if you want the joint feedback expressed in joint frame (instead of link inertial frame)
use p.JOINT_FEEDBACK_IN_WORLD_SPACE if you want the joint feedback in world space coordinates, instead of local link/joint coordinates.
Example: p.setPhysicsEngineParameter(jointFeedbackMode=p.JOINT_FEEDBACK_IN_WORLD_SPACE+p.JOINT_FEEDBACK_IN_JOINT_FRAME)
Use glBufferSubData instead of glMapBuffer/glUnmapBuffer, much faster soft body vertex sync.
Don't use a separate btSoftBodyWorldInfo, use the existing one in btSoftMultiBodyDynamicsWorld.
(due to local convex-triangle collisions causing opposite contact normals, use the pre-computed edge normal)
PyBullet: expose experimental continuous collision detection for maximal coordinate rigid bodies, to prevent tunneling.
use URDF_GLOBAL_VELOCITIES_MB flag in PyBullet loadURDF.
fix robot_bases.py due to new fields in getJointInfo.
backward compabitibility: BulletMJCFImporter, keep creating btMultiSphereShape for MJCF capsules with fromto, instead of shifted btCapsuleShapeZ, unless if CUF_USE_IMPLICIT_CYLINDER is used.
