Features to get the 2nd, 3rd, 4th closest point instead of the closest, and
various distance metrics. No viewport/Eevee support yet.

This works for Cycles, Eevee, texture nodes and compositing. It helps to
reduce the number of math nodes required in various node setups.

Textures in 16 bit integer format are sometimes used for displacement, bump and normal maps and can be exported by tools like Substance Painter. Without this patch, Cycles would promote those textures to single precision floating point, causing them to take up twice as much memory as needed.

The latest clang compiler (at least the one in Xcode 9.4.1) warns about the register keyword and macro expansions using defined().
Since these warnings come from third party code, we can't address them directly in Blender. Silencing them via #pramgas will
at least keep the warnings during a build down to the ones that are relevant to Blender code.
This means the shader can now be used for procedural texturing. New
settings on the node are Samples, Inside, Local Only and Distance.

I've limited it to just the RGB<->XYZ stuff for now, correct image handling is the next step.

The automatic mode checks all Enviroment Texture nodes and picks the largest image's resolution.
If there are no Enviroment Textures, it just uses the old default.
Also, the sampling map now isn't limited to square shapes. The automatic detection uses the exact image size,
the manual UI option now halves the value to get the height.
A default aspect ratio of 2:1 makes sense since this is what most HDRIs use.

There is one legit place in the code where memcpy was used as an
optimization trick. Was needed for older version of GCC, but now
it should be re-evaluated and checked if it still helps to have
that trick.
In other places it's somewhat lazy programming to zero out all
object members. That is absolutely unsafe, at the moment when
less trivial class is used as a member in that object things
will break.
Other cases were using memcpy into an object which comes from
an external library. We don't control that object, and we can
not guarantee it will always be safe for such memory tricks
and debugging bugs caused by such low level access is far fun.
Ideally we need to use more proper C++, but needs to be done with
big care, including benchmarks of each change, For now do
annoying but simple cast to void*.
Not sure why exactly it is called a cleanup, the code was much more clear
and robust against possible missing return statements which are MANDATORY.
Missing return statement will:
- Cause two different BVH traversals to be run.
Not is happening currently, but if more BVH layouts are added, it will
become a problem.
- It is already causing assert() statements to fail, since functions are
no longer returning when they are supposed to.
If there is any measurable reason to keep this change, let me know.
Otherwise just stick to reliable/tested/robust code.
This reverts commit ba65f7093b.
