This works for Cycles, Eevee, texture nodes and compositing. It helps to
reduce the number of math nodes required in various node setups.

I've limited it to just the RGB<->XYZ stuff for now, correct image handling is the next step.

The Math node currently has the normal atan() function, but for
actual angles this is fairly useless without additional nodes to handle the signs.
Since the node has two inputs anyways, it only makes sense to add an arctan2 option.

This is also an important mathematical operation that can be folded
if it is known that one argument is a certain constant. For colors
the operation is provided as a Gamma node.
The SVM Gamma node needs a small fix to make it follow the 0 ^ 0 == 1
rule, same as the Power node, or the Gamma node itself in OSL mode.

Now we calculate color in range 800..12000 using an approximation a/x+bx+c for R and G and ((at + b)t + c)t + d) for B.
Max absolute error for RGB for non-lut function is less than 0.0001, which is enough to get the same 8 bit/channel color as for OSL with a noticeable performance difference.
However there is a slight visible difference between previous non-OSL implementation because of lookup table interpolation and offset-by-one mistake.
The previous implementation gave black color outside of soft range (t > 12000), now it gives the same color as for 12000.
Also blackbody node without input connected is being converted to value input at shader compile time.

This more a workaround for CUDA optimizer which can't optimize clamp(x, 0, 1)
into a single instruction and uses 4 instructions instead.
Original patch by @lockal with own modification:
Don't make changes outside of the kernel. They don't make any difference
anyway and term saturate() has a bit different meaning outside of kernel.
This gives around 2% of speedup in Barcelona file, but in more complex shader
setups with lots of math nodes with clamping speedup could be much nicer.
