Summary

This patch adds choice for turntable/trackball in view3d orbiting (default via numpad).
It allows users to configure orbit style the same way as in pre-2.77 in User Preferences/Input.

New style from T47263 is let as default.

To mimic pre-2.77 behavior, users need to change Numpad-4 and Numpad-6 Style to Turntable in Preferences.

Setting all Numpad-2/4/6/8 to Turntable creates a more consistent behavior, i.e. the up/down rotation axis is really horizontal.

Corner cases are also handled.

Not really keen on adding more options here... we could just have previous behavior from 2.76?
(it was quite OK, even if a little inconsistent).

Yes I would like a revert of this.

Can't we just revert and backport the revert commit for 2.77a? What are we waiting for? ;)

Yes, this is what is expected to happen, but I basically have no power to do it by myself...

Bastien just pushed a revert commit, rB721998825.
