Perlin noise

I made a Perlin noise implementation for Torque2d, sharing it here for people that might need it. The toy and torque script binding are not quite done and i did not have time to test everything yet, but the bulk of the functionality is there for people who want to experiment with it.

Random nitpick that i found while making this thing; mPow has no integral implementation, reserve is a protected member of Vector and has no usable implementation for Vector2d, a direct constructor is available tho and a resize(), this is inconsistent. Vector::size are signed. No support in script for unsigned data type?
Do i need to register the _ScriptBinding.h somewhere to have them available to TS?

Historical note: the Vector template class in all Torque engines appears to be a homebrew and is not very friendly or complete. You will find things like it throughout the older parts of the engine code. I feel your pain....

You can follow the example of the other source files. You just need to add it to the project, then include it in a related source file. For example, Sprite_ScriptBinding.h is included in Sprite.cc.
