When enabled, this normalize the strength by the light area, to keep
the total output the same regardless of shape or size. This is the
existing behavior.
This is supported in Cycles, EEVEE, Hydra, USD, COLLADA.
For add-ons, an API function to compute the area is added for conversion,
in case there is no native support for normalization.
area = light.area(matrix_world=ob.matrix_world)

Switch from Standard Surface to OpenPBR as the exported MaterialX surface,
since this is the new standard more renderers are adopting and it more closely
matches the Principled BSDF implementation.
Anisotropy support is improved though still not quite the same, as formulas
are different. Nodes are generated to apply anisotropic rotation to the
tangent vector, as there is no corresponding parameter in OpenPBR.

There was one test in the volume render test folder that made use of
the ocean sim modifier to add some detail. This lead to test failures
when building Blender without ocean sim.
To fix this issue, this commit applies the ocean sim modifier. This
means it's no longer used, but the render results are the same,
meaning there is no need to update the reference images.

Add a new shader node to control volume coefficients (scattering,
absorption and emission) directly, making it easier to model existing
volumes with measured data.

This change moves the tests data files and publish folder of assets
repository to the main blender.git repository as LFS files.
The goal of this change is to eliminate toil of modifying tests,
cherry-picking changes to LFS branches, adding tests as part of a
PR which brings new features or fixes.
More detailed explanation and conversation can be found in the
design task.
