Part of the workaround for NVIDIA driver issue got lost in the changes to
switch to the GPU module.

It is not really used from any of the sources, including the
standalone app. Since we are moving to a more backend-independent
drawing it makes sense to remove header which was specific to
how Blender integrates Cycles into viewport.
There is probably some cleanup in CMake files is possible, but
there is some inter-dependency with USD.

This change fixes issues with viewport rendering when Metal
GPU backend is used for drawing. This is not a default build
configuration and requires the following tweaks:
- Enable WITH_METAL_BACKEND CMake option (set it to on)
- Use `--gpu-backend metal` command line arguments
It also helps using the `--factory-startup` command line
argument to ensure Eevee is not used (it is not ported and
will crash).
The root of the problem was in the use of glViewport().
It is replaced with the GPU_viewport_size_get_i() which
is supposed to be portable equivalent form the GPU module.
Without this change the viewport size is detected to be 0
which backfired in few places.
The rest of the changes were to make the code more robust
in the extreme conditions instead of asserting or crashing.
Simplified and streamlined GPU resources creation in the
display driver. It was a bit convoluted mix of creation of
the GPU resources and resizing them to the proper size. It
even seemed to be done in the reverse order. Now it is as
simple as "just ensure GPU resources are there for the
given texture or buffer size".
Also avoid division by zero in the tile manager.

To make GPU backends other than OpenGL work. Adds required pixel buffer and
fence objects to GPU module.

* Replace license text in headers with SPDX identifiers.
* Remove specific license info from outdated readme.txt, instead leave details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.

For reasons unclear, destroying and then recreating a vertex buffer in the
render OpenGL context is affecting the immediate mode vertex buffer in the
draw manager OpenGL context.
Instead just create a single vertex buffer and use it for the lifetime of
the render OpenGL context. There's not really any need to have a separate
one per tile as far as I can tell.

The root of the issue is caused by Cycles ignoring OpenGL limitation on
the maximum resolution of textures: Cycles was allocating texture of the
final render resolution. It was exceeding limitation on certain GPUs and
driver.
The idea is simple: use multiple textures for the display, each of which
will fit into OpenGL limitations.
There is some code which allows the display driver to know when to start
the new tile. Also added some code to allow force graphics interop to be
re-created. The latter one ended up not used in the final version of the
patch, but it might be helpful for other drivers implementation.
The tile size is limited to 8K now as it is the safest size for textures
on many GPUs and OpenGL drivers.
This is an updated fix with a workaround for freezing with the NVIDIA
driver on Linux.

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.
