* On sm_30 and above there is no change (was not inlined already before), this just fixes a speed regression from yesterday. 6359c36ba4
* On sm_2x (tested with sm_21), I get a nice 8% speedup in the bmw scene with this. As a bonus, cubin compilation time and memory usage is significantly reduced. Regular cubin size went from 2.5MB to 2.0MB, Experimental one from 3.8MB to 2.5MB.
Currently only summed number of traversal steps and intersections used by the
camera ray intersection pass is implemented, but in the future we will support
more debug passes which would help checking what things makes the scene slow.
Example of such extra passes could be number of bounces, time spent on the
shader tree evaluation and so.
Implementation from the Cycles side is pretty much straightforward, could only
mention here that it's a build-time option disabled by default.
From the blender side it's implemented as a PASS_DEBUG with several subtypes
possible. This way we don't need to create an extra DNA pass type for each of
the debug passes, saving us a bits.

Was hooked up last year for testing purposes, as we already had some code for it, but the closure itself is not really good nor really useful, so let's remove it.
This way there's much less cross-references between objects and meshes
device update functions.
The only thing remained s the object bounds calculation which is needed
by bvh update. This could also be decoupled, but it's not that crucial
yet because its's how it used to be for ages now.
This adds an AABB collision check for objects with volumes and if there's a
collision detected then the object will have SD_OBJECT_INTERSECTS_VOLUME flag.
This solves a speed regression introduced by the fix for T39823 by skipping
volume stack update in cases no volumes intersects the current SSS object.
This means it's no longer needed to enable experimental feature set in order to
have proper camera in volume support. And this also means if there's something
wrong going on, or if there's speed regression for cases when camera is obviously
not in the volume -- this issues are to be reported and handled in the regular
matter.
Happy blending!
The idea is to only count intersections with objects which has volumetric shader
and ignore all other objects.
This is probably as fast as we can go without involving some forth level magic.
Now we do much better preliminary check for panoramic camera is inside the
volume object boundings.
Also we're now cacheing the has_volume in the mesh, which makes it unneeded
iterations for each object's shaders.
Should be no functional changes, just faster sync and panoramic-in-volume
rendering.
Using matcap with a displist is not really good thing to try
and it's actually a regression since we've enabled matcaps
for all objects instead of just an active one.
