This is an attempt to emulate real CMOS cameras which reads sensor by scanlines
and hence different scanlines are sampled at a different moment in time, which
causes so called rolling shutter effect. This effect will, for example, make
vertical straight lines being curved when doing horizontal camera pan.
This is controlled by the Shutter Type option in the Motion Blur panel.
Additionally, since scanline sampling is not instantaneous it's possible to have
motion blur on top of rolling shutter.
This is controlled by the Rolling Shutter Time slider which controls balance
between pure rolling shutter effect and pure motion blur effect.

Vector mapping node was doing some weird mapping of both original and mapped
coordinates. Mapping of original coordinates was caused by the clamping nature
of the LUT generated from the node. Mapping of the mapped value again was quite
totally obscure -- one needed to constantly keep in mind that actual value will
be scaled up and moved down.
This commit makes it so values in the vector curve mapping are always absolute.
In fact, it is now behaving quite the same as RGB curve mapping node and the
code could be de-duplicated. Keeping the code duplicated for a bit so it's more
clear what exact parts of the node changed.

eg:
blender -b --python-exit-code 1 --python script.py --render-anim
This causes blender not to continue parsing command line arguments and exit if the script raises an exception.
This gives about 2x speedup (3.2sec vs. 11.9sec with 32716 handled nodes) when
updating shader for the shader tree.

From recent experience, turns out we often do want to use something else than basic
range of parallelized forloop as control parameter over threads usage, so now BLI func
only takes a boolean, and caller defines best check for its own case.
This makes it possible to move some parts of evaluation from host to the device
and hopefully reduce memory usage by avoid having full RGBA buffer on the host.

Main goal is to make kernel signatures editing easier and less prone to the
errors caused by missing function signature update or so.
This will also make it easier to add new CPU architectures.

The idea is to have separate sets per node name in order to speed up the
comparison process. This will use a bit more memory and slow down simple
shaders, but this extra memory is not so much huge and time penalty is
not really measurable (at least from initial tests).
This saves orders of magnitude seconds when de-duplicating 17K nodes and
overall process now takes 0.01sec on my laptop,
This time, with have over 300% speedup!
But no, this is not due to switch to BLI_task (which 'only' gives usal 15% speedup),
but to enhancement of the algorithm, flatten loop over covariance matrix items now allows
to compute (usually) all items in parallel, instead of having at most 3 or 4 working threads
(with unbalanced load even)...
Gives the usual 10%-30% speedup on affected functions themselves (BLI_bvhtree_overlap() and
BLI_bvhtree_balance()), and about 2% speedup to overall cloth sim e.g. (measured from
main Cloth modifier func).
Also rearranged code here to not issue a draw call (explicit flush) per
face and not set shader per face either when stippled drawing is mixed
with regular drawing. Not good at all for performance.
