This allows users to implement arbitrary camera models using OSL by writing
shaders that take an image position as input and compute ray origin and
direction.
The obvious applications for this are e.g. panorama modes, lens distortion
models and realistic lens simulation, but the possibilities are endless.
Currently, this is only supported on devices with OSL support, so CPU and
OptiX. However, it is independent from the shading model used, so custom
cameras can be used without getting the performance hit of OSL shading.
A few samples are provided as Text Editor templates.
One notable current limitation (in addition to the limited device support)
is that inverse mapping is not supported, so Window texture coordinates and
the Vector pass will not work with custom cameras.

Check was misc-const-correctness, combined with readability-isolate-declaration
as suggested by the docs.
Temporarily clang-format "QualifierAlignment: Left" was used to get consistency
with the prevailing order of keywords.

Before, we'd just zero out the memory of the struct and then set the
defaults afterwards, but that:
- Prevents us from storing non-POD types
- Silently assumes that array<float> is safe to zero out (it currently
is, but that is still ugly and risky)
- Bloats the code since every non-zero entry now needs two lines
So, just make use of C++11 here. All the default values that were
previously unset are taken from the Blender-side defaults.

This type of projection is often used e.g. in exhibitions that leverage big
curved screens.
Effectively, the frame is mapped onto a cylinder, with the x axis becoming the
longitude and y axis becoming the height.
Users can configure the min/max longitude, the min/max height and the radius of
the cylinder.

Merge duplicated motion blur settings between Cycles and EEVEE,
and move them to `RenderData`/`scene.render`:
* `scene.cycles.motion_blur_position` -> `scene.render.motion_blur_position`
* `scene.eevee.use_motion_blur` -> `scene.render.user_motion_blur`
* `scene.eevee.motion_blur_position` -> `scene.render.motion_blur_position`
* `scene.eevee.motion_blur_shutter` -> `scene.render.motion_blur_shutter`
On the C/C++ side, this also renames `RenderData::blurfac` to
`RenderData::motion_blur_shutter`.

This is in prevision of EEVEE panoramic projection support.
EEVEE-Next is planned to add support for these parameters.
Not having these parameters in Blender DNA will make Cycles
and EEVEE not share the same parameters and will be confusing
for the user.
We handle forward compatibility by still writing the parameters
as ID properties as previous cycles versions expect.
Since this change will break the API compatibility it is crucial
to make it for the 4.0 release.

Previously it would bake viewed from above the surface. The new option can be
useful when the baked result is meant to be viewed from a fixed viewpoint or
with limited camera motion.
Some effort is made to give a continuous reflection on parts of the surface
invisible to the camera, but this is necessarily only a rough approximation.

This is useful when using an armature as a camera rig, to avoid creating and
targetting an empty object.

This adds support for rendering motion blur for volumes, using their
velocity field. This works for fluid simulations and imported VDB
volumes. For the latter, the name of the velocity field can be set per
volume object, with automatic detection of velocity fields that are
split into 3 scalar grids.
A new parameter is also added to scale velocity for more artistic control.
Like for Alembic and USD caches, a parameter to set the unit of time in
which the velocity vectors are expressed is also added. For Blender gas
simulations, the velocity unit should always be in seconds, so this is
only exposed for volume objects which may come from external OpenVDB
files.
These parameters are available under the `Render` panels for the fluid
domain and the volume object data properties respectively.

This allows real world cameras to be modeled by specifying the coordinates of a
4th degree polynomial that relates a pixels distance (in mm) from the optical
center on the sensor to the angle (in radians) of the world ray that is
projected onto that pixel.
This is available as part of the panoramic lens type, however it can also be
used to model lens distortions in projective cameras for example.

Remove prefix of filenames that is the same as the folder name. This used
to help when #includes were using individual files, but now they are always
relative to the cycles root directory and so the prefixes are redundant.
For patches and branches, git merge and rebase should be able to detect the
renames and move over code to the right file.
