According to the OptiX denoising guide lines, renders should be in the
0..10000 range. As a result, clamping was applied to renders
prior to GPU denoising.
However this lead to a issue where denoising of bright images would
behave differently between CPU OIDN and GPU OIDN as this same clamping
was also applied to the GPU OIDN denoiser.
According to Attila Áfra, a developer working on OIDN, this clamping
isn't neccesary for OIDN. So this commit removes the clamping from
OIDN.

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.

Previously, GPU denoisers were ignoring settings about render
configuration and were using any available GPU. With these changes,
GPU denoisers will use the device selected in Blender Cycles
settings.
This allows any GPU denoiser to be used with CPU rendering.

Cycles already treats denoising fairly separate in its code, with a
dedicated `Denoiser` base class used to describe denoising
behavior. That class has been fully implemented for OIDN
(`denoiser_oidn.cpp`), but for OptiX was mostly empty
(`denoiser_optix.cpp`) and denoising was instead implemented in
the OptiX device. That meant denoising code was split over various
files and directories, making it a bit awkward to work with. This
patch moves the OptiX denoising implementation into the existing
`OptiXDenoiser` class, so that everything is in one place. There are
no functional changes, code has been mostly moved as-is. To
retain support for potential other denoiser implementations based
on a GPU device in the future, the `DeviceDenoiser` base class was
kept and slightly extended (and its file renamed to
`denoiser_gpu.cpp` to follow similar naming rules as
`path_trace_work_*.cpp`).
