a06c9b5ca8 Cycles: add Sobol-Burley sampling pattern
Based on the paper "Practical Hash-based Owen Scrambling" by Brent Burley,
2020, Journal of Computer Graphics Techniques.

It is distinct from the existing Sobol sampler in two important ways:
* It is Owen scrambled, which gives it a much better convergence rate in many
  situations.
* It uses padding for higher dimensions, rather than using higher Sobol
  dimensions directly. In practice this is advantagous because high-dimensional
  Sobol sequences have holes in their sampling patterns that don't resolve
  until an unreasonable number of samples are taken. (See Burley's paper for
  details.)

The pattern reduces noise in some benchmark scenes, however it is also slower,
particularly on the CPU. So for now Progressive Multi-Jittered sampling remains
the default.

a22ad7fbd3 Fix T98036: Cycles blackbody inaccurate for low temperature and wide gamut
Regenerate blackbody RGB curve fit to not clamp values, and extend down to
800K since it does now change below 965K.

Note that as before, blackbody is only defined in the range 800K to 12000K
and has a fixed value outside of that. But within that range there should
be no more unnecessary gamut clamping.

9cfc7967dd Cycles: use SPDX license headers
* Replace license text in headers with SPDX identifiers.
* Remove specific license info from outdated readme.txt, instead leave details
  to the source files.
* Add list of SPDX license identifiers used, and corresponding license texts.
* Update copyright dates while we're at it.

d1f944c186 Cycles: declare constants at program scope on Metal
MSL requires that constant address space literals be declared at program
scope. This patch moves the `blackbody_table_r/g/b` and `cie_colour_match`
constants into separate files so they can be declared at the appropriate scope.
