-expanded build_deps.cmd with 2017 support, it can't locate msvc2017 so needs to be run from developer prompt.
-Newer cmake was unhappy with openal's cmakelists.txt
-collada has warning as error on and errored out on new msvc2017 warnings.
This is really convenient for development. Either for profiling the
generated shaders or to check if the generated code is correct.
It writes the shaders to the temporary blender session folder.

This will currently only work for the RelWithDebInfo configuration since asan
does not support the debug crt. for source line information in the reports,
you need a copy of llvm-symbolizer in the blender folder or set the
ASAN_SYMBOLIZER_PATH environment variable to point to it. Currently (as of
6.0.0) llvm-symbolizer does not ship with the binary clang/llvm distribution.

This commit contains the minimum to make clang build/work with blender, asan and ninja build support is forthcoming
Things to note:
1) Builds and runs, and is able to pass all tests (except for the freestyle_stroke_material.blend test which was broken at that time for all platforms by the looks of it)
2) It's slightly faster than msvc when using cycles. (time in seconds, on an i7-3370)

3) clang on windows uses a drop in replacement for the Microsoft cl.exe (takes some of the Microsoft parameters, but not all, and takes some of the clang parameters but not all) and uses ms headers + libraries + linker, so you still need visual studio installed and will use our existing vc14 svn libs.
4) X64 only currently, X86 builds but crashes on startup.
5) Tested with llvm/clang 6.0.0
6) Requires visual studio integration, available at https://github.com/LazyDodo/llvm-vs2017-integration
7) The Microsoft compiler spawns a few copies of cl in parallel to get faster build times, clang doesn't, so the build time is 3-4x slower than with msvc.
8) No openmp support yet. Have not looked at this much, the binary distribution of clang doesn't seem to include it on windows.
9) No ASAN support yet, some of the sanitizers can be made to work, but it was decided to leave support out of this commit.

This patch adds support for IES files, a file format that is commonly used to store the directional intensity distribution of light sources.
The new IES node is supposed to be plugged into the Strength input of the Emission node of the lamp.
Since people generating IES files do not really seem to care about the standard, the parser is flexible enough to accept all test files I have tried.
Some common weirdnesses are distributing values over multiple lines that should go into one line, using commas instead of spaces as delimiters and adding various useless stuff at the end of the file.
The user interface of the node is similar to the script node, the user can either select an internal Text or load a file.
Internally, IES files are handled similar to Image textures: They are stored in slots by the LightManager and each unique IES is assigned to one slot.
The local coordinate system of the lamp is used, so that the direction of the light can be changed. For UI reasons, it's usually best to add an area light,
rotate it and then change its type, since especially the point light does not immediately show its local coordinate system in the viewport.

ninja is an alternative to msbuild designed for fast rebuilds. However there is no IDE support, builds only from the command line.

make.bat was starting to become hard to maintain, this refactors it into separate batch files for each stage of the process.
-Improved detection of msvc2013/2015
-Improved failure handling.
-Added check for working msbuild and C++ compiler
-Added verbose switch to ease trouble shooting.
-Added Check if svn/cmake/git are in the path before using them
-Display the build configuration before asking to download the libraries
-Offer an option to recover an interrupted checkout of the libraries.
-Automatically check out sub-modules in-case they are missing.
This commit adds number formatting (thousands separator) to the baking panel. It also adds a new function to format memory sizes (KB/GB/etc) and applies it to the baking panel and scene stats. The new function is unit tested.

The registry hack we were using wasn't very reliable, the recommended way to locating visual studio is using vswhere (15.2 and up), using it also allows to switch between the regular and pre-release versions.
The GPU kernel needs to use atomics for accumulation since all offsets are processed in
parallel, but on CPUs that's not the case, so we can disable them there for a considerable speedup.
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.
