This enables the new lazy module loading behavior introduced in OIDN 2.3,
without breaking compatibility with older versions of OIDN (using separate
code paths).
Also, the detection of OIDN support for devices is now much cleaner, and
devices do not need to be matched by PCI address or device name anymore.

<algorithm> header include is missing from some sycl headers, this will
be fixed upstream with https://github.com/intel/llvm/pull/10424,
meanwhile, we work around it by including it directly.
Updated Embree 4 library with GPU support is required for it to be
compiled - compatiblity with Embree 3 and Embree 4 without GPU support
is maintained.
Enabling hardware raytracing is an opt-in user setting for now.

This is a minimal set of changes, allowing a lot of cleanup that can
happen afterward as it allows sycl method and objects to be used outside
of kernel.cpp.

The number of Execution Units and resident "threads" (simd width * threads
per EUs) are now exposed and used to select the number of states using
a simplified heuristic.
This patch adds a new Cycles device with similar functionality to the
existing GPU devices. Kernel compilation and runtime interaction happen
via oneAPI DPC++ compiler and SYCL API.
This implementation is primarly focusing on Intel® Arc™ GPUs and other
future Intel GPUs. The first supported drivers are 101.1660 on Windows
and 22.10.22597 on Linux.
The necessary tools for compilation are:
- A SYCL compiler such as oneAPI DPC++ compiler or
https://github.com/intel/llvm
- Intel® oneAPI Level Zero which is used for low level device queries:
https://github.com/oneapi-src/level-zero
- To optionally generate prebuilt graphics binaries: Intel® Graphics
Compiler All are included in Linux precompiled libraries on svn:
https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/lib The same goes for
Windows precompiled binaries but for the graphics compiler, available
as "Intel® Graphics Offline Compiler for OpenCL™ Code" from
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/tool/oneapi-standalone-components.html,
for which path can be set as OCLOC_INSTALL_DIR.
Being based on the open SYCL standard, this implementation could also be
extended to run on other compatible non-Intel hardware in the future.
