When filterexact is a new dyntype which is just like the existing `filter`, but the activation state is integrated with exact integration, instead of simple Euler integration.
When actearly is specified on a general actuator, `qfrc_actuator` is computed using the next timestep's `act` value, instead of the current value.

- Add `joint-actuatorforcerange` for clamping total actuator force at joints. Add `sensor-jointactuatorfrc` for sensing total actuator forces on a single joint.
See [documentation](https://mujoco.readthedocs.io/en/latest//modeling.html#actuator-force-clamping) for justification and use cases.
- Add simple car model to `model/`.
- Move actuation-related test models into `engine/testdata/actuation/`.

- `muscle` actuators take a new `tausmooth` attribute (defaults to 0) which when positive, smooths the transition between activation and deactivation timescales.
- `mju_muscleDynamics` takes 3 parameters, adding width of smoothing sigmoid.

Keeping this rarely-used setting complicates the compiler logic and is blocking future improvements. In order to convert older models which used this option, load and save them in MuJoCo 2.3.3 or older.

- Schema table now has attribute links and is open by default.
- Attributes are in 4 columns.
- Fixed various documentation bugs made visible by this change.
- Removed distance equality constraint from xml_native_reader.cc

If given two non-decreasing values, `springlength` specifies a deadband for spring stiffness, inside of which the force is 0 and outside of which force behaves like a regular spring, with the setpoint corresponding to the nearest value. This can be used to create tendons whose limits are enforced by springs rather than constraints, which are cheaper and easier to analyse. See test/engine/testdata/tendon_springlength.xml example model.
Spring-limited spatial tendons whose lower range value is 0 are rendered as catenaries.
Fixes#520.

- `gain` was not inherited, either from `<adhesion gain>` default or from `<general gainprm>` default.
- `dyntype` was not inherited from `<general dyntype>` default.
- Reported by @vaxenburg.

- Added new `cable` composite type:
* The `initial` parameter specifies the joint at the starting boundary: `free`, `ball`, or `none`.
* The boundary bodies are exposed with the names:`B_left` and `B_right`.
* The vertex initial positions can be specified directly in the XML with the parameter `vertex`.
* The orientation of the body frame **is** the orientation of the material frame of the curve.
- Added new `cable` passive force plugin:
* Twist and bending stiffness can be set separately with the parameters `twist` and `bend`.
* The stress-free configuration can be set to be the initial one or flat with the flag `flat`.
* New cable example showing the formation of plectoneme.
* New coil example.
* New belt example showing interaction between twist and anisotropy.
* Added test using cantilever exact solution.

- Add private function `mj_arenaAlloc`. This is used internally to allocate memory from the arena.
- Add private function `mj_nefc` to count constraints. This function returns a tight upper bound on `d->nefc`. The number of counted constraints can be slightly bigger than exact `d->nefc` in the case of constraints with empty Jacobian, as when placing a frictional tendon between two world sites.
- Add new `memory` attribute to the `size` XML element for specification of arena memory size. This attribute is mutually exclusive with `nstack` and `njmax` specifications, which are now deprecated (but left around for the time being for legacy compatibility).
- Move `d->stack` to the end of the new arena space. The stack now grows in reverse from the end.

- Adhesion actuator defaults were not parsed, now fixed.
- Both damper and adhesion actuators were requiring `ctrlrange` at parse time, which prevented this attribute from being inherited from defaults, now fixed.
- Added tests for all 3 cases.

This is an amendment to 4bfc2c0311.
Add an autolimits compiler option. When true, *limited will be inferred from the presence of the *range attributes.
When false, models where limited is not specified, and range is will fail to compile.

- Added `refsite` attribute to actuators with `site` transmission.
- Such actuators now have a well defined length and can be used for e.g., Cartesian end-effector control.
- Added example models and documentation describing the new feature.

- `tfratio` scales applied torques relative to applied forces.
- Add visualisation of both anchor points to both weld and connect constraints.
