Cleans up the file structure to be more similar to that of the SVM
and also makes it possible to build kernels with OSL support, but
without having to include SVM support.
This patch was split from D15902.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D15949
This has the advantage of being able to use information about the
existing OSL closures in various places without code duplication. In
addition, the setup code for all closures was moved to standalone
functions to avoid usage of virtual function calls in preparation for GPU
support.
This patch was split from D15902.

The SVM attribute map is always generated and uses a simple
linear search to lookup by an opaque ID, so can reuse that for OSL
as well and simply use the attribute name hash as ID instead of
generating a unique value separately. This works for both object
and geometry attributes since the SVM attribute map already
stores both. Simplifies code somewhat and reduces memory
usage slightly.

This patch is a response to T92588 and is implemented
as a Function/Shader node.
This node has support for Float, Vector and Color data types.
For Vector it supports uniform and non-uniform mixing.
For Color it now has the option to remove factor clamping.
It replaces the Mix RGB for Shader and Geometry node trees.
As discussed in T96219, this patch converts existing nodes
in .blend files. The old node is still available in the
Python API but hidden from the menus.

The calculation was revised to address two issues:
* Discontinuities occurring when detail was a non-integer greater than 2.
* Levels of detail in the interval [0,1) repeating the levels of detail in
the interval [1,2).
This fixes Cycles, Eevee and geometry nodes.

* Store compact ray differentials in ShaderData and compute full differentials
on demand. This reduces register pressure on the GPU.
* Remove BSDF differential code that was effectively doing nothing as the
differential orientation was discarded when making it compact.
This gives a 1-5% speedup with RTX A6000 + OptiX in our benchmarks, with the
bigger speedups in simpler scenes.
Renders appear to be identical except for the Both displacement option that
does both displacement and bump.

These replace float3 and packed_float3 in various places in the kernel where a
spectral color representation will be used in the future. That representation
will require more than 3 channels and conversion to from/RGB. The kernel code
was refactored to remove the assumption that Spectrum and RGB colors are the
same thing.
There are no functional changes, Spectrum is still a float3 and the conversion
functions are no-ops.

Simplifies intersection code a little and slightly improves precision regarding
self intersection.
The parametric texture coordinate in shader nodes is still the same as before
for compatibility.
For transparency, volume and light intersection rays, adjust these distances
rather than the ray start position. This way we increment the start distance
by the smallest possible float increment to avoid self intersections, and be
sure it works as the distance compared to be will be exactly the same as
before, due to the ray start position and direction remaining the same.

This completes support for tiled texture packing on the Blender / Cycles

Most of these changes fall into one of three categories:
- Updating Image handling code to pack/unpack tiled and multi-view images
- Updating Cycles to handle tiled textures through BlenderImageLoader
- Updating OSL to properly handle textures with multiple slots

Inspired by D12936 and D12929, this patch adds general purpose
"Combine Color" and "Separate Color" nodes to Geometry, Compositor,
Shader and Texture nodes.
- Within Geometry Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB" and
"Separate RGB" nodes.
- Within Compositor Nodes, it replaces the existing
"Combine RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA" and "Separate RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA"
nodes.
- Within Texture Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGBA" and
"Separate RGBA" nodes.
- Within Shader Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB/HSV" and
"Separate RGB/HSV" nodes.
Python addons have not been updated to the new nodes yet.
**New shader code**
In node_color.h, color.h and gpu_shader_material_color_util.glsl,
missing methods hsl_to_rgb and rgb_to_hsl are added by directly
converting existing C code. They always produce the same result.
**Old code**
As requested by T96219, old nodes still exist but are not displayed in
the add menu. This means Python scripts can still create them as usual.
Otherwise, versioning replaces the old nodes with the new nodes when
opening .blend files.

With (center) position, radius and random value outputs.
Eevee does not yet support rendering point clouds, but an untested
implementation of this node was added for when it does.
Ref T92573
This add support for rendering of the point cloud object in Blender, as a native
geometry type in Cycles that is more memory and time efficient than instancing
sphere meshes. This can be useful for rendering sand, water splashes, particles,
motion graphics, etc.
Points are currently always rendered as spheres, with backface culling. More
shapes are likely to be added later, but this is the most important one and can
be customized with shaders.
For CPU rendering the Embree primitive is used, for GPU there is our own
intersection code. Motion blur is suppored. Volumes inside points are not
currently supported.
Implemented with help from:
* Kévin Dietrich: Alembic procedural integration
* Patrick Mourse: OptiX integration
* Josh Whelchel: update for cycles-x changes

When rendering volume surfaces in unbounded worlds the volume stepping can produce large values. If used with a magic texture node the values can results in a Inf float which when used in a sin or cos produces a NaN.
To fix this the input values are mapped into the periodic range of the sin and cos functions (-2*PI 2*PI) this stops the possibility of a Inf occurring and thus the NaN. It also improves the accuracy and smoothness of the result due to loss of precision when large values are summed with smaller ones effectively removing the parts of the smaller number (i.e. those in the -2PI to 2PI range) that result in variation of the output of sin and cos.

We run into float precision issues here, clamp the number of octaves to
one less, which has little to no visual difference. This was empirically
determined to work up to 16 before, but with additional inputs like
roughness only 15 appears to work.
Also adds misisng clamp for the geometry nodes implementation.
Remove prefix of filenames that is the same as the folder name. This used
to help when #includes were using individual files, but now they are always
relative to the cycles root directory and so the prefixes are redundant.
For patches and branches, git merge and rebase should be able to detect the
renames and move over code to the right file.
* Split render/ into scene/ and session/. The scene/ folder now contains the
scene and its nodes. The session/ folder contains the render session and
associated data structures like drivers and render buffers.
* Move top level kernel headers into new folders kernel/camera/, kernel/film/,
kernel/light/, kernel/sample/, kernel/util/
* Move integrator related kernel headers into kernel/integrator/
* Move OSL shaders from kernel/shaders/ to kernel/osl/shaders/
For patches and branches, git merge and rebase should be able to detect the
renames and move over code to the right file.
The motivation for this is twofold. It improves performance (5-10% on most
benchmark scenes), and will help to bring back transparency support for the
ambient occlusion pass.
* Duplicate some members from the main path state in the shadow path state.
* Add shadow paths incrementally to the array similar to what we do for
the shadow catchers.
* For the scheduling, allow running shade surface and shade volume kernels
as long as there is enough space in the shadow paths array. If not, execute
shadow kernels until it is empty.
* Add IntegratorShadowState and ConstIntegratorShadowState typedefs that
can be different between CPU and GPU. For GPU both main and shadow paths
juse have an integer for SoA access. Bt with CPU it's a different pointer
type so we get type safety checks in code shared between CPU and GPU.
* For CPU, add a separate IntegratorShadowStateCPU struct embedded in
IntegratorShadowState.
* Update various functions to take the shadow state, and make SVM take either
type of state using templates.

There is not enough time before the release to improve Random Walk to handle
all cases this was used for, so restore it for now.
Since there is no more path splitting in cycles-x, this can increase noise in
non-flat areas for the sample number of samples, though fewer rays will be traced
also. This is fundamentally a trade-off we made in the new design and why Random
Walk is a better fit. However the importance resampling we do now does help to
reduce noise.
