Explicit template specialization has to happen outside of class
definition (some compilers are more lenient). Since it is not possible to
specialize the method without also specializing the enclosing class for
all of its possible types, the method is moved outside of the class, and
specialized there.
Use templates to optimize the CPU texture sampler to interpolate using
float for single component datatypes instead of using float4 for all types.

CPU code for cubic interpolation with clip texture extension only performed
texture interpolation inside the range of [0,1]. As a result, even though the
volume's color is sampled using cubic interpolation, the boundary is not
being interpolated. The GPU appears was interpolating samples that span the
clip boundary softening the edge, which the CPU now does also.
This commit also includes refactoring of 2D and 3D texture sampling in
preparation of adding new extension modes.

* Remove specific license info from outdated readme.txt, instead leave details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.

* Rename struct KernelGlobals to struct KernelGlobalsCPU
* Add KernelGlobals, IntegratorState and ConstIntegratorState typedefs
that every device can define in its own way.
* Remove INTEGRATOR_STATE_ARGS and INTEGRATOR_STATE_PASS macros and
replace with these new typedefs.
* Add explicit state argument to INTEGRATOR_STATE and similar macros
In preparation for decoupling main and shadow paths.

This includes much improved GPU rendering performance, viewport interactivity,
new shadow catcher, revamped sampling settings, subsurface scattering anisotropy,
new GPU volume sampling, improved PMJ sampling pattern, and more.
Some features have also been removed or changed, breaking backwards compatibility.
Including the removal of the OpenCL backend, for which alternatives are under
development.

all the changes since intermediate changes would often fail building or tests.
