This adds a fresnel conductive OSL preset to the Text Editor. Based on a patch by Lukas Stockner.

See the differential for details.
Issue was caused by the precision issues which made sdivm by 1 under
it's actual value. We can try to do some eps magic, but from the tests
on laptop and desktop doing integer division is not slower than using
floats here.
Thanks for Aldo Zang for the help with the fix for the panorama/fisheye
depth of field calculation and the overall math.

Now we build 2 .cubins per architecture (e.g. kernel_sm_21.cubin, kernel_experimental_sm_21.cubin).
The experimental kernel can be used by switching to the Experimental Feature Set: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Experimental_Features
This enables Subsurface Scattering and Correlated Multi Jitter Sampling on GPU, while keeping the stability and performance of the regular kernel.

Patch by Sergey and myself.
Developer / Builder Note:
CUDA Toolkit 6.5 is highly recommended for this, also note that building the experimental kernel requires a lot of system memory (~7-8GB).
Limitations:
* Smoke/Fire rendering is *not* supported on GPU yet, that is also documented here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Materials/Volume
* Decoupled Ray Marching is also not supported yet, so no Equi-Angular and MIS sampling yet.
Note for Builders and Developers:
* Make sure to use the CUDA Toolkit 6.5 from now on. 6.0 might still work, but can cause slower renders.
That was only needed in the beginning, when we did not had support for tangents. It's time to clean some of the defines up, it's getting a bit too much.
* __VOLUME__ is basic volume support with Emission and Absorption.
* __VOLUME_SCATTER__ enables volume Scattering support.
* __VOLUME_DECOUPLED__ enables Decoupled Ray Marching.
This problem was introduced in 983cbafd18
Basically the issue is that we were not getting a unique index in the
baking routine for the RNG (random number generator).

* Don't compute expf() for every step, instead sum the intermediate values and calculate it every N (8 for now) steps. This helps a few percent (~5% on a cube with wave texture) in my tests here.
Root of the issue goes back to the on-fly normals commit and the
latest fix for it wasn't actually correct. I've mixed two fixes
in there.
So the idea here goes back to storing negative scaled object flag
and flip runtime-calculated normal if this flag is set, which is
pretty much the same as the original fix for the issue from me.
The issue with motion blur wasn't caused by the rumtime normals
patch and it had issues before, because it already did runtime
normals calculation. Now made it so motion triangles takes the
negative scale flag into account.
This actually makes code more clean imo and avoids rather confusing
flipping code in mesh.cpp.
We can't really make CPU and GPU results look the same in all possible
circumstances, but here we can make them look close enough to each other
by making it so sobol pattern for bounce number is the smae for both
CPU and GPU.
This makes CPU and GPU render results look the same with low number of
samples, high number of samples was never an issue.
Fix T41115: Motion Blur renders Objects Black - But not in Viewport Preview
This actually extends previous fix to normals and makes it all much nicer now.
Worth doing some intense testing, quick one worked just fine but there always
could be some corner cases.
Fix T41079: Solid black render of object with negative scale and smooth shading
In both cases the issue was caused by negative scaled objects with single mesh
users for which scale gets applied when using static BVH.
Since the on-fly normals calculation land normals for such cases weren't flipped
leading them to point to a wrong direction.
Added a special object flag for this, which is a bit of a bummer because now
we've got less bits for real useful things, but this is the only way to get
proper normals without adding more complexity in the on-fly calculations.
