This function was modifying texture datablock, which makes the call
unsafe for call from multiple threads. Now we pass the argument that
we don't need nodes to the underlying functions.
There will be still race condition in noise texture, but that should
at least be free from crashes. Doesn't mean we shouldn't fix it tho.
In this case the Pyobject gets lost from pybm, and bm.free() does not invalidate the PyElem.
This will cause the destructor of python to read invalid memory and crash.
The solution is to make a copy of the pyobjects pointers before overwriting.
This area is a subject of reconsideration, so for now used simplest
way possible -- ensure depsgraph's nodes have proper layer flags
when going in and out of local mode.
The issue was apparently caused by -fno-finite-math-only added to kernel.cpp
CFLAGS. For now just removed this flag from the kernel (we don't really want
it there at this point, and we don't have it for SSE/AVX optimized kernels).
But surely more investigation is needed here.
The idea is to make include statements more explicit and obvious where the
file is coming from, additionally reducing chance of wrong header being
picked up.
For example, it was not obvious whether bvh.h was refferring to builder
or traversal, whenter node.h is a generic graph node or a shader node
and cases like that.
Surely this might look obvious for the active developers, but after some
time of not touching the code it becomes less obvious where file is coming
from.
This was briefly mentioned in T50824 and seems @brecht is fine with such
explicitness, but need to agree with all active developers before committing
this.
Please note that this patch is lacking changes related on GPU/OpenCL
support. This will be solved if/when we all agree this is a good idea to move
forward.

The intention of this commit it to address issues mentioned in the
reports T43865,T50164 and T50452.
The code is based on Embree code with some extra vectorization
to speed up single ray to single triangle intersection.
Unfortunately, such a fix is not coming for free. There is some
slowdown for AVX2 processors, mainly due to different vectorization
code, which caused different number of instructions to be executed
and different instructions-per-cycle counters. But on another hand
this commit makes pre-AVX2 platforms such as AVX and SSE4.1 a bit
faster. The prerformance goes as following:
2.78c AVX2 2.78c AVX Patch AVX2 Patch AVX
BMW 05:21.09 06:05.34 05:32.97 (+3.5%) 05:34.97 (-8.5%)
Classroom 16:55.36 18:24.51 17:10.41 (+1.4%) 17:15.87 (-6.3%)
Fishy Cat 08:08.49 08:36.26 08:09.19 (+0.2%) 08:12.25 (-4.7%
Koro 11:22.54 11:45.24 11:13.25 (-1.5%) 11:43.81 (-0.3%)
Barcelone 14:18.32 16:09.46 14:15.20 (-0.4%) 14:25.15 (-10.8%)
On GPU the performance is about 1.5-2% slower in my tests on GTX1080
but afraid we can't do much as a part of this chaneg here and
consider it a price to pay for more proper intersection check.
Made in collaboration with Maxym Dmytrychenko, big thanks to him!

That one was:
* Resetting non-ID pointers (lib_link_xxx funcs should only affect ID
pointers, everything else shall be done in direct_link_xxx func).
* Even worse, always calling lib_link_animdata, even when
LIB_TAG_NEED_LINK tag was unset...
We do not need any special handling anymore for usercount of images used
by faces/polygons (tpage stuff), since we have the 'real_user' handling,
which will gracefully cope with all possible situations.
So better not keep that ugly confusing useless special case.
Mainly:
* Add missing `IDP_LibLinkProperty()` calls for many ID types
(harmless currently, but better be consistent here!).
* Bring lib_link_xxx functions more in line with each other.
* Replace some long if/else by switch.
