This patch extends perlin noise to operate in 1D, 2D, 3D, and 4D
space. The noise code has also been refactored to be more readable.
The Color output and distortion patterns changed, so this patch
breaks backward compatibility. This is due to the fact that we
now use random offsets as noise seeds, as opposed to swizzling
and constants offsets.

I need to use some macros defined in util_simd.h for float3/float4, to emulate
SSE4 instructions on SSE2. But due to issues with order of header includes this
was not possible, this does some refactoring to make it work.

This makes the code a bit easier to understand, and might come in handy
if we want to reuse more Embree code.
