Currently only supports single image frames (no animation possible).
If quality slider is set to 100 then lossless compression will be used,
otherwise lossy compression is used.
Gives about 35% reduction of filesize save when re-saving splash screens with lossless
compression.
Also saves much faster, up to 15x faster than PNG with a better compression ratio as a plus.
Note, this is currently left disabled until we have WebP libs (see T95206)
For testing precompiled libs can be downloaded from Google:

When creating a new window from a duplicated area - by shift-dragging
on corner action zones - on the Windows platform the resulting window
is initially unresponsive. This patch fixes this by releasing the parent
window's mouse capture.

Explicit template specialization has to happen outside of class
definition (some compilers are more lenient). Since it is not possible to
specialize the method without also specializing the enclosing class for
all of its possible types, the method is moved outside of the class, and
specialized there.
Use templates to optimize the CPU texture sampler to interpolate using
float for single component datatypes instead of using float4 for all types.

rBc1909770e7f192574ea62449dd14b4254637e604 introduced "PXR_LIB_PREFIX" for building the
dependencies, so only makes sense to use the same name in the Hydra render delegate CMake too
This patch adds a Hydra render delegate to Cycles, allowing Cycles to be used for rendering
in applications that provide a Hydra viewport. The implementation was written from scratch
against Cycles X, for integration into the Blender repository to make it possible to continue
developing it in step with the rest of Cycles. For this purpose it follows the style of the rest of
the Cycles code and can be built with a CMake option
(`WITH_CYCLES_HYDRA_RENDER_DELEGATE=1`) similar to the existing standalone version
of Cycles.
Since Hydra render delegates need to be built against the exact USD version and other
dependencies as the target application is using, this is intended to be built separate from
Blender (`WITH_BLENDER=0` CMake option) and with support for library versions different
from what Blender is using. As such the CMake build scripts for Windows had to be modified
slightly, so that the Cycles Hydra render delegate can e.g. be built with MSVC 2017 again
even though Blender requires MSVC 2019 now, and it's possible to specify custom paths to
the USD SDK etc. The codebase supports building against the latest USD release 22.03 and all
the way back to USD 20.08 (with some limitations).

This enables the configuration to specify aliases for compatibility with other
configurations.
When a colorspace name is saved in a.blend, that is the alias of a colorspace
in the current configuration, it will show the main colorspace from the
configuration in the user interface and Python API instead.
Loading & saving the .blend file does not make any changes to the stored name,
so as to not make hidden modifications. Only when setting the property again
will the alias name be overwritten by the main colorspace name.

When using GradingPrimaryTransform the generated GLSL code fails to compile. The actual issue is
inside OCIO (https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenColorIO/issues/1603).
The reason is that unset clamping values are rendered out as `inf`, which isn't recognizable
by GLSL.
The issue is worked around by defining a default for `inf`.

CPU code for cubic interpolation with clip texture extension only performed
texture interpolation inside the range of [0,1]. As a result, even though the
volume's color is sampled using cubic interpolation, the boundary is not
being interpolated. The GPU appears was interpolating samples that span the
clip boundary softening the edge, which the CPU now does also.
This commit also includes refactoring of 2D and 3D texture sampling in
preparation of adding new extension modes.

Consider switching to rendered shading type as a request to start
rendering, without requiring to un-pause.
This minimizes amount of clicks needed to start rendering after
viewport was paused once, and then shading mode got changed.

To make porting to other architectures easier, clarifying that this does not
need to be supported. The unused parallel_reduce implementation assumed warp
size 32, but is easy to update if we ever need it in the future.
Solved by introducing introducing a variant of MEM_cnew which behaves
as a copy-constructor for a trivial types.
Alternative approach would be to surround DNA structs with clang/gcc
diagnostics push/modify/pop so that implicitly defined constructors
and copy operators are allowed to access deprecated fields.
The downside of the DNA approach is that it will require some way to
easily apply diagnostics modifications to many structs, which is not
possible currently.
The newly added MEM_cnew has other good usecases, so is easiest to
use this route, at least for now.

While the correlation may not work well with adaptive sampling, in practice
this appears to work ok in most cases
Automatic scrambling distance uses the minimum samples from adaptive sampling,
which provides a good default estimate to avoid artifacts.

Caused by an integer overflow in the tiling utilities of OptiX SDK.
Seems for now it's easier to copy and modify code to our sources so
that we don't need to bump SDK version requirement (which might lead
to an increased driver requirement as well).
There are still some fixes needed from a newer driver to have such
denoising to work properly: Windows requires 511.79, Linux 510.54.

Fix T95462: Partly transparent objects appear to glow in the dark
The issue was caused by incorrect check for exceeded number
of transparent bounces: the same maximum distance was used
for picking up N closest intersections and counting overall
intersections count.
Now made it so intersection count is using ray distance which
matches the way how Embree and OptiX implementation works.
