Informations about DrawNodeV2 (as draft: extension DrawNodeEx)

[aismann]

My time to working on axmol/DrawNodeEx is slow at the moment.
Extension DrawNodeEx is mostly finished for replacing Class DrawNode.

1: I think DrawNodeEx should be part of the cpp-test app (no longer optional)

• "More developer who can see how its works and may finding an issue too".
  For this: change this line to ${AX_EXT_HINT}):
  option(AX_ENABLE_EXT_DRAWNODEEX "Build extension DrawNodeEx" ${AX_EXT_HINT}))

2: After some testing time (4 weeks?) for everybody:

• rename DraweNodeEx to Drawnode and replace Drawnode.
• Remove extension DrawNodeEx

quick questing on DrawNodeEx, is it a replacement for DrawNode added to AXMOL.
DrawNode works perfect but can get a bit laggy like if I use Debug on box2d is DrawNodeEx faster or a replacement or has it always been there and I just never used it ?

Best way is to try it self on cpp_test=>DrawNodeEx
DrawNode has some bugs and missing features.
Here a short list:
BUGs:

• DrawNode draws in wrong order #1888 DrawNode draws in wrong order
  
• DrawNode: setLineWitdh() is no longer working #1411 DrawNode: setLineWitdh() is no longer working

Features (some was also started on DrawNode):

• All drawing primitives can be used on one node with different behavior (thickness, scale, rotating, position)
• drawPie() with thickness
• drawStar()
• LineWith/thickness can be different for each drawing primitives
• Each drawing primitives can be transform (rotate, scale, position) without changing the thickness or recalc the vertices
• drawLine() can have different 'endtypes'

About the performance: It should be the same or little bit faster as DrawNode

DrawNodeV2 0.96:
New example: Lines be generated with the same method void Sample::generateDataPoints() from: AwesomeNode
