Irrlicht generally avoided user pointers in the past, but after trying all kind of ugly workarounds - this is just easier and
not that much downsides really. Tiny speed costs due to additional SMaterial memory size and new comparison tests.
But allows to keep SMaterial alive and useful for a while longer without needing a complete rewrite and it can now be used for stuff like writing PBR shaders.
Using a new interface io::IUserData for this which also allows serialization the user data (that part is untested so far, sorry)

- 10 year anniversary update
- Lighting model reworked. moved to eyespace like openGL. [Specular Highlights, Fog, Sphere/Reflection Map]
- increased internal s4DVertex to support 4 Textures and 4 Colors [switchable]
- Textures are handled as sRGB during Mipmap Generation. More accurate, less visual disruption
- 2D is drawn as 3D like hardware drivers. [switchable]. enables viewport scaling, material2D
- Texture Spatial Resolution Limiting working. [lower memory consumption,SOFTWARE_DRIVER_2_TEXTURE_MAXSIZE]
- SuperTuxKart 8.0.1 playable
