filmfreedom-org 5e24e06796 Replaced parsers sub-package with parsers.py
After discovering that sub-packages in Blender add-ons don't work (this
seems to be very broken!), I replaced the parsers subpackage with a
parsers.py module (almost as simple as concatenating the source files in
the package). I may be removing this name-parsing system from ABX
entirely, soon, possibly moving it into KitCAT.

# copy_anim.py
"""
Blender Python code to copy animation between armatures or proxy armatures.
The purpose of the 'Copy Animation' feature is to allow for animation to be
copied from one armature to another, en masse, rather than having to individual
push and move action objects.
The main use for this is to repair files in which animated proxy rigs have
become incompatible or broken for some reason. Common examples include a name
change in the rig or armature object in a character asset file, extra bones
added, and so on. There is no simple way in Blender to update these proxies.
It is possible to create a new proxy, though, and with this tool to speed up
the process, the animation can be transferred to it all at once.
The tool also allows for the animation to be correctly copied and scaled by
a scale factor, so that animation can be copied from a proxy defined at one
scale to one defined at another.
This comes up when an animation file was built incorrectly at the wrong scale
and needs to be corrected, after animating has already begun.
The scaling feature has been tested on Rigify-based rigs, and resets the
bone constraints as needed, during the process.
