Remove trailing whitespace, add newlines at end of files
This results in less merge conflicts when using the
Text Editor > Files > Trim Trailing Whitespace editor setting.

.ptex, .mmg and .json files generated weren't modified
as these are saved by Material Maker. These files could be made
to end with a newline automatically on save in a future commit.

Pattern node
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Pattern node outputs a pattern texture generated from common waveform shapes.

Inputs
++++++
The Pattern node does not accept any input.
Outputs
+++++++
The Pattern node provides a greyscale texture obtained by mixing a horizontal and a vertical pattern.
Many different patterns can be created using this node, do not hesitate to experiment.
.. image:: images/pattern.png
Parameters
++++++++++
The Pattern node accepts the following parameters:
* the *X* and *Y* parameters define the pattern and their number of repetitions
that will be propagated along the X axis and Y.
The following patterns are available:
* Sine: the value follows a sinus waveform
* Triangle: the value follows a triangle waveform (changes linearly from 0 to 1 and from 1 to 0)
* Square: the value follows a square waveform (stays constant at 0, then 1)
* Sawtooth: the value follows a sawtooth waveform (changes linearly from 0 to 1, then jumps back to 0)
* constant: the value is 1
* the *Combiner* parameter is the function used to combine the *X* and *Y* patterns. The available
functions are *multiply*, *add*, *max*, *min*, *xor* and *pow*
