This PR fixes the (currently unused) scene-based selective feature compilation macros. These feature based macros haven't been used for a few years, and enabling them currently results in compilation errors.
The only functional change in this PR is in geom/primitive.h where undef-ing `__HAIR__` had exposed an inconsistency in how pointcloud attributes were being fetched. Using the more general `primitive_surface_attribute_float4` (instead of `curve_attribute_float4`) fixed a compilation error that occurred when rendering pointcloud unit test scenes with adaptive compilation enabled.

HIP RT enables AMD hardware ray tracing on RDNA2 and above, and falls back to a
to shader implementation for older graphics cards. It offers an average 25%
sample rendering rate improvement in Cycles benchmarks, on a W6800 card.
The ray tracing feature functions are accessed through HIP RT SDK, available on
GPUOpen. HIP RT traversal functionality is pre-compiled in bitcode format and
shipped with the SDK.
This is not yet enabled as there are issues to be resolved, but landing the
code now makes testing and further changes easier.
Known limitations:
* Not working yet with current public AMD drivers.
* Visual artifact in motion blur.
* One of the buffers allocated for traversal has a static size. Allocating it
dynamically would reduce memory usage.
* This is for Windows only currently, no Linux support.

This patch adds two new kernels: SORT_BUCKET_PASS and SORT_WRITE_PASS. These replace PREFIX_SUM and SORTED_PATHS_ARRAY on supported devices (currently implemented on Metal, but will be trivial to enable on the other backends). The new kernels exploit sort partitioning (see D15331) by sorting each partition separately using local atomics. This can give an overall render speedup of 2-3% depending on architecture. As before, we fall back to the original non-partitioned sorting when the shader count is "too high".

In this case the blocksize may not the one we requested, which was assumed to be
the case. Instead get the effective block size from the compiler as was already
done for Metal and OneAPI.
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.

Move MNEE to own kernel, separate from shader ray-tracing. This does introduce
the limitation that a shader can't use both MNEE and AO/bevel, but that seems
like the better trade-off for now.
We can experiment with bigger kernel organization changes later.

Workaround for a compilation issue preventing kernels compiling for AMD GPUs: Avoid problematic use of templates on Metal by making `gpu_parallel_active_index_array` a wrapper macro, and moving `blocksize` to be a macro parameter.

This patch adds MetalRT support to Cycles kernel code. It is mostly additive in nature or confined to Metal-specific code, however there are a few areas where this interacts with other code:
- MetalRT closely follows the Optix implementation, and in some cases (notably handling of transforms) it makes sense to extend Optix special-casing to MetalRT. For these generalisations we now have `__KERNEL_GPU_RAYTRACING__` instead of `__KERNEL_OPTIX__`.
- MetalRT doesn't support primitive offsetting (as with `primitiveIndexOffset` in Optix), so we define and populate a new kernel texture, `__object_prim_offset`, containing per-object primitive / curve-segment offsets. This is referenced and applied in MetalRT intersection handlers.
- Two new BVH layout enum values have been added: `BVH_LAYOUT_METAL` and `BVH_LAYOUT_MULTI_METAL_EMBREE` for XPU mode). Some host-side enum case handling has been updated where it is trivial to do so.

This patch fixes an address space mismatch in the film convert kernels on Metal. The `film_get_pass_pixel_...` functions take a `ccl_private` result pointer, but the film convert kernels pass a `ccl_global` memory pointer. Specialising the pass-fetch functions with templates results in compilation errors on Visual Studio, so instead this patch just adds an intermediate local on Metal.

The issue was caused by splitting happening twice.
Fixed by checking for split flag which is assigned to the both states
during split.
The tricky part was to write catcher data at the moment of split: the
transparency and shadow catcher sample count is to be accumulated at
that point. Now it is happening in the `intersect_closest` kernel.
The downside is that render buffer is to be passed to the kernel, but
the benefit is that extra split bounce check is not needed now.
Had to move the passes write to shadow catcher header, since include
of `film/passes.h` causes all the fun of requirement to have BSDF
data structures available.

It's unclear why this fails. Maybe the size of half4 is not the expected
8 bytes and adjacent pixels are overwritten. Or there is some bug in the
HIP compiler writing a struct into global memory, which we probably don't
do elsewhere in the kernel.
Thanks to Thomas, William and Jeroen for helping investigate this.
rB3a4c8f406a3a3bf0627477c6183a594fa707a6e2 changed the macros that create the film
convert kernel entry points, but in the process accidentally changed the parameter definition
to one of those (which caused CUDA launch and misaligned address errors) and changed the
implementation as well. This restores the correct implementation from before.
In addition, the `ccl_gpu_kernel_threads` macro did not work as intended and caused the
generated launch bounds to end up with an incorrect input for the second parameter (it was
set to "thread_num_registers", rather than the result of the block number calculation). I'm
not entirely sure why, as the macro definition looked sound to me. Decided to simply go with
two separate macros instead, to simplify and solve this.
Also changed how state is captured with the `ccl_gpu_kernel_lambda` macro slightly, to avoid
a compiler warning (expression has no effect) that otherwise occurred.

This patch adapts the shared kernel entrypoints so that they can be compiled as MSL (Metal Shading Language). Where possible, the adaptations avoid changes in common code.
In MSL, kernel function inputs are explicitly bound to resources. In the case of argument buffers, we declare a struct containing the kernel arguments, accessible via device pointer. This differs from CUDA and HIP where kernel function arguments are declared as traditional C-style function parameters. This patch adapts the entrypoints declared in kernel.h so that they can be translated via a new `ccl_gpu_kernel_signature` macro into the required parameter struct + kernel entrypoint pairing for MSL.
MSL buffer attribution must be applied to function parameters or non-static class data members. To allow universal access to the integrator state, kernel data, and texture fetch adapters, we wrap all of the shared kernel code in a `MetalKernelContext` class. This is achieved by bracketing the appropriate kernel headers with "context_begin.h" and "context_end.h" on Metal. When calling deeper into the kernel code, we must reference the context class (e.g. `context.integrator_init_from_camera`). This extra prefixing is performed by a set of defines in "context_end.h". These will require explicit maintenance if entrypoints change. We invite discussion on more maintainable ways to enforce correctness.
Lambda expressions are not supported on MSL, so a new `ccl_gpu_kernel_lambda` macro generates an inline function object and optionally capturing any required state. This yields the same behaviour. This approach is applied to all parallel_... implementations which are templated by operation. The lambda expressions in the film_convert... kernels don't adapt cleanly to use function objects. However, these entrypoints can be macro-generated more concisely to avoid lambda expressions entirely, instead relying on constant folding to handle the pixel/channel conversions.
A separate implementation of `gpu_parallel_active_index_array` is provided for Metal to workaround some subtle differences in SIMD width, and also to encapsulate some required thread parameters which must be declared as explicit entrypoint function parameters.

Adds a pass before denoising that calculates the intensity of the image, which can be
passed into the OptiX denoiser for more optimal results for very dark or very bright images.
In addition this also fixes a crash that sometimes occurred on exit. The OptiX denoiser object
has to be destroyed before the OptiX device context object (since it references that). But in
C++ the destructor function of a class is called before its fields are destructed, so
"~OptiXDevice" was always called before "OptiXDevice::~Denoiser" and therefore
"optixDeviceContextDestroy" was called before "optixDenoiserDestroy", hence the crash.

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.
* Split render/ into scene/ and session/. The scene/ folder now contains the
scene and its nodes. The session/ folder contains the render session and
associated data structures like drivers and render buffers.
* Move top level kernel headers into new folders kernel/camera/, kernel/film/,
kernel/light/, kernel/sample/, kernel/util/
* Move integrator related kernel headers into kernel/integrator/
* Move OSL shaders from kernel/shaders/ to kernel/osl/shaders/
For patches and branches, git merge and rebase should be able to detect the

Similar to main path compaction that happens before adding work tiles, this
compacts shadow paths before launching kernels that may add shadow paths.
Only do it when more than 50% of space is wasted.
It's not a clear win in all scenes, some are up to 1.5% slower. Likely caused
by different order of scheduling kernels having an unpredictable performance
impact. Still feels like compaction is just the right thing to avoid cases
where a few shadow paths can hold up a lot of main paths.
