Lukas Stockner f478c2cfbd Cycles: Added support for light portals
This patch adds support for light portals: objects that help sampling the
environment light, therefore improving convergence. Using them tor other
lights in a unidirectional pathtracer is virtually useless.

The sampling is done with the area-preserving code already used for area lamps.
MIS is used both for combination of different portals and for combining portal-
and envmap-sampling.

The direction of portals is considered, they aren't used if the sampling point
is behind them.
