* Perform attribute interpolation as part of dicing.
* Remove temporary subd uv and face index attributes.
On a MacBook M3 with 12 P-cores and 4 E-cores, these changes overall give
a 10x-14x speedup on various scenes. Note that splitting is still single
threaded and can be expensive, and UV subdivision can be optimized more.

* Move dicing out of DiagSplit, caller now uses EdgeDice
* Merge, rename and reorder various EdgeDice functions
* Compute triangle indices for subpatches in advance

* Share vertices between patches instead of using stitch map
* Switch to OpenSubdiv compatible counter-clockwise indexing
* Simplify patch edge reverse direction logic
* Add more comments to splitting and dicing

* Add SubdAttributeInterpolation class for linear attribute interpolation.
* Dicing computes ptex UV and face ID for interpolation.
* Simplify mesh storage of subd primitive counts
* Remove kernel code for subd attribute interpolation
* Remove patch table packing and upload
The old optimization adds a fair amount of complexity to the kernel, affecting
performance even when not using the feature. It's also not that useful as it
does not work for UVs that needs special interpolation. With this simpler code
it should be easier to make it feature complete.

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.

* Use .empty() and .data()
* Use nullptr instead of 0
* No else after return
* Simple class member initialization
* Add override for virtual methods
* Include C++ instead of C headers
* Remove some unused includes
* Use default constructors
* Always use braces
* Consistent names in definition and declaration
* Change typedef to using

For example
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver()
{
}
```
becomes
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver() {}
```
Saves quite some vertical space, which is especially handy for
constructors.

To improve mesh upload speeds and reduce the size of the scene data which allows larger scenes to be rendered.
The meshes in Cycles are currently stored as flattened meshes, where each triangle is stored as a set of 3 vertices. Unflattening writes out the vertices in a list according to the index buffer. This uses a lot of memory and for current hardware does not provide a noticeable benefit. This change unflattens the mesh by directly using the meshes vertex and index buffers directly and skips the unflattening. This change allows for larger scenes and also a reduction in the sizes of the meshes. Further it results in a decrease the amount of time it takes to upload the data to a GPU. This is especially important for when multiple GPUs are used in a single machine.

* Remove specific license info from outdated readme.txt, instead leave details
to the source files.
* Add list of SPDX license identifiers used, and corresponding license texts.
* Update copyright dates while we're at it.

This adds vertex creasing support for OpenSubDiv for modeling, rendering,
Alembic and USD I/O.
For modeling, vertex creasing follows the edge creasing implementation with an
operator accessible through the Vertex menu in Edit Mode, and some parameter in
the properties panel. The option in the Subsurf and Multires to use edge
creasing also affects vertex creasing.
The vertex crease data is stored as a CustomData layer, unlike edge creases
which for now are stored in `MEdge`, but will in the future also be moved to
a `CustomData` layer. See comments for details on the difference in behavior
for the `CD_CREASE` layer between egdes and vertices.
For Cycles this adds sockets on the Mesh node to hold data about which vertices
are creased (one socket for the indices, one for the weigths).
Viewport rendering of vertex creasing reuses the same color scheme as for edges
and creased vertices are drawn bigger than uncreased vertices.
For Alembic and USD, vertex crease support follows the edge crease
implementation, they are always read, but only exported if a `Subsurf` modifier
is present on the Mesh.

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
renames and move over code to the right file.
