When doing simple scenes the displacement shading failed during final
rendering when the displacement method is set to `Displacement + Bump`.
When this option is enabled the shader uses the Vector math
node. This node is part of the node group level 1. When doing simple
shading only using nodes that are part of the node group level
0 the shading was rendered black.
This only happened in final rendering as there the OpenCL programs are
optimized to save registries. Viewport rendering rendered correctly

Small memory reduction change by only storing the pixels of the combined
pass when it is being shown in the viewport. Previously the combined pass
was always calculated and present in the output buffer. The combined pass
will still be calculated.
It is a limitation in Blender that Cycles always had a combined pass.
This patch will remove the limitation from the code base of Cycles.
Blender still has the limitation, but will always request the combined
renderpass when doing final rendering.

This patch allows the Voronoi node to operate in 1D, 2D, and 4D space.
It also adds a Randomness input to control the randomness of the texture.
Additionally, it adds three new modes of operation:
- Smooth F1: A smooth version of F1 Voronoi with no discontinuities.
- Distance To Edge: Returns the distance to the edges of the cells.
- N-Sphere Radius: Returns the radius of the n-sphere inscribed in
the cells. In other words, it is half the distance between the
closest feature point and the feature point closest to it.
And it removes the following three modes of operation:
- F3.
- F4.
- Cracks.
The Distance metric is now called Euclidean, and it computes the actual
euclidean distance as opposed to the old method of computing the squared
euclidean distance.
This breaks backward compatibility in many ways, including the base case.

This change allows the user to select a renderpass in the 3d viewport.
Added support for external renderers to extend the `View3DShading` struct.
This way Blender doesn't need to know the features an external render engine wants to support.
Note that the View3DShading is also available in the scene->display.shading; although this is
supported, it does not make sense for render engines to put something here as it is really
scene/workbench related.
Currently cycles assumes that it always needs to calculate the combined pass; it ignores the
`pass_flag` in KernelFilm. We could optimize this but that was not in scope of this change

This patch rewrites the Mapping node to support dynamic inputs. The
Max and Min options have been removed. They can be added as Min and
Max Vector Math nodes manually.
Texture nodes still use the old matrix-based mapping. A new SVM node
`NODE_TEXTURE_MAPPING` has been added to preserve this functionality.
Similarly, in GLSL, a `mapping_mat4` function has been added.

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.

This patch stitches the vertices along patch edges so that cracks can
no longer form when applying subdivision or displacement a mesh.
Subpatches are now formed in a way that ensures vertex indices along
subpatch edges are equal for adjacent subpatches. A mapping of vertices
along patch edges is built to preform stitching. Overall performance is
roughly the same, some gains were made in splitting, but some was lost
in stitching.
This fixes:
- T49049 (cracks between patches from material and uv seams)
- T49048 (discontinuous normals with true displacement)

The partial disabling was causing issues with Clang and ASAN, and it seems we
don't need to restrict it to the kernel anymore now that we are no longer using
boost directly.
In a test file containing 1300 copies of the same shader, this reduces shader update time from 3.1 sec to 0.05 sec.

Previously, bright edges (e.g. caused by rim lighting) would sometimes get
halos around them after denoising.
This change introduces a log(1+x) highlight compression step that is performed
before denoising and reversed afterwards. That way, the denoising algorithm
itself operates in the compressed space and therefore bright edges cause less
numerical issues.
This also replaces the Use Alpha setting. We now have these alpha modes:
* Straight: store RGB and alpha channels separately with alpha acting as a
mask, also known as unassociated alpha.
* Premultiplied: transparent RGB pixels are multiplied by the alpha channel.
The natural format for renders.
* Channel Packed: different images are packed in the RGB and alpha channels,
and they should not influence each other. Channel packing is commonly used
by game engines to save memory.
* None: ignore alpha channel from the file and make image fully opaque.
Cycles OSL does not correctly support Channel Packed and None yet, we are
missing fine control over the OpenImageIO texture cache to do that.
