With these changes, we can now mark devices which are expected to work as
performant as possible, and devices which were not optimized for some reason.
For example, because the device was released after the Blender release,
making it impossible for developers to optimize for devices in already
released unchangeable code. This is primarily relevant for the LTS versions,
which are supported for two years and require proper communication about
optimization status for the new devices released during this time.
This is implemented for oneAPI devices. Other device types currently are
marked as optimized for compatibility with old behavior, but may implement
the same in the future.

free_memory queries were disabled due to runtime driver issues on Linux
when using jemalloc.
compute-runtime introduced a fix for these issues with
8527779778
which is part of versions 31740 and higher, and matches the currently
required min-driver version, so we can restore this feature.

Since #118841 there are more cases where Cycles would check for the
graphics interop support. This could lead to a crash when graphics
interop functions are called without having active graphics context.
This change makes it so there is no graphics interop calls when doing
headless render. In order to achieve this the device creation is now
aware of the headless mode.

ZES_ENABLE_SYSMAN is supposed to be set for free_memory queries to be
available.
These queries are then optionally used since
759bb6c768, for the host memory fallback
feature.
Setting SYCL_ENABLE_PCI was leading ZES_ENABLE_SYSMAN to be set by DPCPP
2022-12 but it's not used by newer versions of DPCPP.
We however temporarily disable SYSMAN by default on Linux as builds with
JEMALLOC enabled currently lead to driver runtime issues. These can be
worked around by using LD_PRELOAD=libigsc.so.
This enables the new lazy module loading behavior introduced in OIDN 2.3,
without breaking compatibility with older versions of OIDN (using separate
code paths).
Also, the detection of OIDN support for devices is now much cleaner, and
devices do not need to be matched by PCI address or device name anymore.

OpenImageDenoise V2 comes with GPU support for various backends. This adds a new class, OIDNDenoiserGPU, in order to add this functionality into the existing Cycles post processing pipeline without having to change it much. OptiX and OIDN CPU denoising remain as they are. Rendering on a supported Intel GPU will automatically select the GPU denoiser.
Device support is initially limited to the oneAPI devices that are supported by Cycles, but can be extended.

Recent versions of DPC++ dropped using the environment variable
SYCL_PI_LEVEL_ZERO_USE_COPY_ENGINE_FOR_IN_ORDER_QUEUE=0 we were setting.
We're now also setting SYCL_PI_LEVEL_ZERO_USE_COPY_ENGINE=0 by default
to keep a consistent behavior.
Updated Embree 4 library with GPU support is required for it to be
compiled - compatiblity with Embree 3 and Embree 4 without GPU support
is maintained.
Enabling hardware raytracing is an opt-in user setting for now.

This is a minimal set of changes, allowing a lot of cleanup that can
happen afterward as it allows sycl method and objects to be used outside
of kernel.cpp.

Additionally, just stick to a pure error stating. Such messages
are aimed for developers and it is rather implied that oneAPI
rendering will be disabled.
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.
